He said the hose recom- mended was guaranteed for five years, an1 that the city could withhold the purchase money for four years to protect itself in the contract. He said the treated hose was more pliable, and more of it can be carried on hose wagon, and that it does not absorb so much water as the other and does not break so readily.

He said the regular price of the Keystone brand-that which his company is to sup ply the city under the contract-is 90 cents per foot, but that in order to get the con tract he had made a special rate of 80 cents.

The True Relief, RHDWhy'S REHDy RELIEF For Internal and External Use.

In using medicines to stop pain we should avoid such as infict injury on the system. Opium, morphine, chloroform ether, CO., caine and chloral stop pain by destroying the sense of perception. the patient losing the power of feeling. This Is a most de- structive practice; 1t masks the symptoms, shuts up, and. instead of removing trouble, breaks down the stomach, liver and bowels, and, if continued for a length of time, kills the nerves and produces local or general paralysis.
 There Is no necessity for using these un- certain agents when positive remedy like RADWAY'S READY RELIEF will stop the most excruciating pain quicker. without entailng the least danger In either infant or adult.

ANOTHER BLUFF.

For several weeks the Belding News
has been running under prominent dis
play headings an alleged offer by Wal
lace Davenport Of Keene To sell a
good, sound work horse of 1900 pounds
weight, accepting therefor note for
$50 to be paid when Bryan is elected
president. Last Saturday two Belding
gentlemen who are judges of horse
flesh and have some sporting tenden-
cies, drove down to Davenport's place
for the purpose OF accepting his offer
II found as represented. Upon calling
at the house they we're informed that
Mr.. Davenport was away but they
could go to the barn and look at the
horse which was there. They did so
and found small horse or pony,
weighing about 500 pounds, apparently
about 2l years old(he ought to vote for
Bryan)with a SPAWN upon one hind leg
and ringbone upon the other. They
returned TO the house and asked IL
that was the horse that was advertise d
for sale. Mrs. Davenport replied that
1t was not, that that one had been trad
ed for this one. Asking further II he
had received any additional consider
alton in the trade, she said no. They
started back for Belding at once, even
more firmly convinced than before
that glitteriug democratic promises
are not to be relied upon aud that they
are gay deceivers all. 1t certainly
shows great faith in his cause on the
part of Mr.. Davenport to make such a
generously offer.

Early Monday morning, Mary, daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Price, died of
mem mbraneous Group. Mary was eight
years old the 18th of last August, and
was member Of the third grade in
the Central School. She was an unusu-
ally bright little girl and endeared her
self to her sehoolmates by winning ways
and thoughtful deeds. None supasscI
her in scholarship and the unfinished
work, left in her desk, is a pathetic re-
minder of her careful conscientious
work. The morning talk at chapel, of
the day she passed away, was upon the
life and character Of the little school
friend who would be with US no more,
and a seriousness and hush rested upon
the children and remained throughout
the day; for they realized that ''even a
child is known by his doings whether
his work be pure and whether it be
right" The home is filed with sorrow
and longing for the presence of the
happy hearted child so lately its JOY
and light.
Weeping parents, thank the Father
For her joyous transient stay;
You are better for her sojourn
Though so short her little day
All accomplished, her dear mission
No rough path for her you fear,
Gone to God dear little pilgrim
Leaving sweetest memories here"

Daily inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1881-1901, 1900-07-20

China are utterly hopeless in their COM
ments upon the present situation. They
assert that the Manchu dynasty is fight
ing for it's life and power and that it will
not spare any effort to set the furious
mobs in motion against the foreign CON-
cessions at Shanghai Marking, Han
K'oW. Che Foo and other places. Some of
the best informed men favor united ac-
tion of the powers, by which Nankin
shall be proclaimed the capital. so the
capital can be maintained by the Chinese
themselves against the despotic and ar
rogant Manchu race, but they admit in
THE next breath that this policy cannot
be carried out since both Russia and
Japan will not consent to the degrada-
tion of Pekin when each hopes ultimate
1y to occupy and to hold 1T permanently.
No power except Japan apparently
knows it's own mind, and while battal-
ions and naval brigades are going out,
there is no settled policy, but a general
reluctance to substitute de jure for de
facto warfare and break off diplomatic
relations with a government which has
virtually decreed the expulsion of for
eigners and the destruction of all alien
interests
sheng is still giving out contradictory
messages respecting the legations, ana
there are highly imaginative estimates of
the strength of the Chinese armies in
the field. The real trend of events dis
closed by two facts-first that the Chi
nese government Is forcing the foreign
powers to stand together and fight by
its own aggressive action, and second,
that the powers. while banding together
have their eyes fixed upon spheres Of
interest where each must ultimately as
sumo the responsibility of administration.
This was Illustrated by Mr.. Broderick's
admission that the consul general at
Shanghai had been empowered to give
assurances of British support to the vice.
roys in the Yang Use region.

sure, II the empire = d her advisers are
round to be in g ay responsible for
this, one of the atrocious crimes
against lnterna law that has ever
peen commute y .e international law
has been known! means the cleaning
out of the whole establishment. The per-
son OF an ambassador is sacred. He is
free to go where he pleases, and his
right to communicate with his own home
government is guaranteed. To violate
this as grossly as those who are in power,
or Who usurped power in China have
done, is to arouse the wroth of the civ
ilized world, and nothing short of the
wlping out of those responsible will sat
dsfy nations against which the crime was
committed
What were the exact causes and con-
dations that led to the present trouble ?'
President Angel was asked.
"The primary cause is the extreme l1a-
tired which the Chinese bear toward all
foreigners. There are great differences
in the fundamental ideas and ideals be-
tween the European and Asiatic people.
NO Intelligent foreigner can travel
through Asia without noticing it,
Are the Chinese adverse to the intro
duction Of the Christian religion?"
mo, not in that broad sense, they do
not seem to fear for the permanence of
their own religion. 1t is not that they
object to missionaries and the Christian
religion as much as it is that the mis-
sionaries are foreigners.
1T is probably true, as the natives
assert, that some bad Cinnamon go into
the Christian church to secure the imn1u-
mites assured convertes by trae treaty Of
1858, when all native Christians We're
given the same protection as the mis-
sionar.es themselves.
"a monstrous cause of the uprising is
the widespread suspicion among the ma
tives since the Japanese war that the
foreigners are going 70 partition China.
It is not strange that all these conditions
cause friction and excitement
Then, two years ago, the young en-
peror tried to introduce western civiliza-
ton and reforms. The old conservative
Mandarins held up their hands in holy
horror and the reform party was quickly
subdued.
"These same conservatives do not hes
itate to spread the report that it is due
to foreign influence that the flame Of
liberalism is being famed The Chinese
want to be left to themselves and the one
word foreigner sums up the great cause
of the present trouble" =
