Nick Krump, a wealthy W3hpeton
man, went to st. Louis in November
to visit relatives and incidentally to
buy cattle. He strolled into a res
taurant, saw Theresa Pilfusack, a
pretty waitress, and his doom was
sealed. He smiled at Theresa, and
she smiled back, and the courtship.
which began then and there, led to
marriage a week ago, and Mr.. and
Mrs. Krump returned to Wahpeton to
receive congratulations of their friends.

Fierce Battle Near Taku.
Chinese Troops are Defeated with
Heavy Losses.

Taku, China, June 20, via
Shanghai, July "A reconnoiter-
ing party under Lieutenant Com
mander Keys of the torpedo boat
Fame, captured and destroyed the
New City and the port II miles
from Taku, June 2S There was
little or no opposition. Two blue
Jackets were injured by an explo.
sion and many Chinese were killed.
The river is practically clear from
Taku to Tien Tsin, with the ex-
ceptlon of few sunken tow boats
and lighters.
A second attack was made on
the east arsenal 9th, the Russians
being forced to retire for reinforce
ments. A force of British one
company of Germans and 80
Americans then engaged the
enemy who with four guns, made
a determined resistance until the
whole allied force supported the
artillery.
The allies advanced and stormed
the arsenal Fifty Chinese were
killed and the remainder retired.
Lack of cavalry prevented the
capture of the whole force.
AS soon as the allies had reached
the arsenal Is imperial troops
made a flank attack from the city.
The British and Russians drove
them back.
The British casualties number
five killed and 21 wounded. The
Americans had only one wounded,
the Germans two killed and FIVE
wounded, while the Russians lost

Philadelphia, July "A blank

the lives of seven children, the

China Forces the War.
Imperial Decreo Issued Which
Makes 1t Extremely Unsafe for
Foreigners.

London, July 4-"Not a single
foreigner is now alive in Pekip.n.
is the the latest Chinese report
which has reached Shanghai.
Earlier reports from the same
sources describe the condition of
the British legation as something
awful. 1t is said that the rooms
of the legation were filled with
sick and wounded, the killed lying
unburied in heaps.
1t is believed that many mem
bers and officials of the tsung Ii
yamen perished when the German
guard, maddened by the murder
of Baron Won Ketteler, the Ger
nan minister, set fire to the build-
ing.
That the foreigners at the
Chinese capital have been aban-
doned to their horrible fate seems
no longer open to doubt in the
light of the dispatch received from
Taku announcing the decisions of
the admirals regarding the help>
lessness of further attempts to re-
lieve Pekin.
Shanghai, July 4-The follow
ing imperial decree, dated Pekin,
June 20, has been sent by courier
to Pao Ting Flu, and thence tele
graphed broadcast:
"We are now warning with the
foreigners, Boxers, patriots, and
people, combined with the gov
ernment troops, have been re-
peatedly victorious in battles with
our foreign enemies. We have
already sent imperial commission
ers TO transmit the imperial praise
and exhortation to repeat these
successes.
"There must be mem of similar
patriotism and bravery In all the
provinces of the empire. We,
therefore, command all viceroys
and governors to enlist such and
organize them into troops. Let
this decree be sent to all the high
officials in the empire at the rate
of 200 miles per day."
High Chinese officials here state
that they have received message
from Pekin saying that twenty
four hours would decide the fate

Cotton Outlook.
The Crop Will Probably be Short
and the Prices Good.

Augusta Chronicle.
The outlook for raw CT tton is
that prices will be high, ranging
from 8 to 10 cents a pound. The
visible supply is very short, and
there will not, IN all probability
be a new crop much above 10, =
100000 bales. The northern
mills made a great deal of money
on 5t and 6 cents cotton in the
b. le. But the rising prices have
halted their prosperity. Latest
reports from Fall River indicate
that the manufacturers are face to
face with an obliteration of prof

1t is pretty certain that cotton
farmers are going to get a good
price for their cotton next fall.
No doubt the crop will recover
from much of the damage it suf-
fered from the wet weather of
last month, but it will not be as
large as 1t was expected 1T would
be on account of the increase in
the acreage. The worlds supply
of cotton is much smaller now
than it is usually at this season of

Germany Will AVenge.
Remarkable Speech of the En-
peror to His Soldiers.

Berlin, July 3.-Addressing
the detachment of German marines
which sailed from Wilheim's
Haven for China yesterday, the
emperor made remarkable
speech, during which he notified
the world of Germany's intention
to avenge the murder of Baron
Won Ketteler, the late minister of
Germany at Pekin, and the mis-
sionaries and to dictate terms to
the Chinese from the palace at
Pekin. His majesty spoke as
follows:
"The frebrand of war has been
hurled in the midst of the most
profound peace. Unhappily this
was to me not unexpected. The
crime is unspeakable insolence;
horrlfying in its barbarity that
has been committed against the
person of my trusty representa-
tive and has taken him from US.
The ministers of the other powers
hover between life and death, and
with them comrades sent for their
protection. 1t may be that while
l speak they have already fought
their last fight.
"The German flag has been in,
suited and the German empire
treated with contempt. This de-
mands exemplary punishment and
vengeance. Events have moved
with frightful rapidity and have
become profoundly grave and
still graver. Since | called you
to arms what | hoped to effect
with the help of marine infantry
has now become a difficult task
which can only be fulfilled with
the help of the serried ranks o all
civilized states.
81 will not rest until the Ger
man flag, joined to those of the
other powers, floats triumphantly
over China's flags, and until 1t
has been planted on the walls of
Pekin to dictate peace to the
Chinese. You will have to NAM
tain good comradeship with all
the other troops whom you will
come in contact with over yonder
Russians, British and French, oil
alike, are fighting for one com,
mon cause--for civilization"

much belong to England as

The more the country is in
formed with reference to the
rights of England in the South
African republic, the more
surely does it appear that
England has no rights in
the present trespass on Boer
soil and that she deserves to be
shot to pieces and driven out
of that whole country. Those
people have never at any time
submitted to the domination of
England, have all along been
preparing for war and warning
England that if she persisted
in her encroachments, there
would be trouble. This is an
established truth, and England
stands before civilization to-
day the greedy, overbearing,
unrighteous despot she has
always been; and that the un-
righteous old braggart has
been soundly ttreshed, to date,
in her present attempt at theft
is heartily enjoyed by every
civilized law abiding person in
christendom.

History Repeating Itself.

Have the Republican leaders
in congress lost their senses?
Have they forgotten the his
tory of past scandals, that they
think they can "drop the Gage
matter" by sitting further in
vestigation?
We advise Speaker Hender-
son, floor. leader Payne and the
other congressman who are
pursuing this course to re-
member Babcock and Belknap
and Robeson and "Landaulet"
Williams and Alger and
Eagan. Let them recall the his
tory of the Credit Mobilier, the
Whiskey Ring and the en-
balmed-beef contracts. Did
not the accused in all these
cases first deny, then excuse,
then "court investigation, then
come to trial and then Co
some to oblivion, others to the
penitentiary7
History is now repeating it.
self, with this difference: In.
stead of denying the charges
of favoritism to an odious and
dangerous monopoly Mr.. Gage
admits the fact and ingenu-
ously furnishes from his cor
respondence letters which
prove the case to be worse than
charged.
Yet when Mr.. Richardson,
after describing the Custom
House transaction as an i'm
peachable offense, asked Mr..
Hopkins if this was dealing
properly with trust money of
the United States," the Repub-
licans rushed blindly to the de-
fense of the indefensible.
The World desired that this
investigation be made in non
partisan way solely for the pro-
lection of the public welfare.
It is preferred that the resolu-
ton should be offered by an
independent Republican rather
than by a Tam many man and
a persistent self-advertiser like
Mr.. Sulzer. But if the Repub-
licsns, after having joined in
bringing to light the damning
disclosures already made, not
only defend Secretary Gage
and his associates but refuse
to pursue the inquiry, they
cannot blame the Democrats
for making party capital out

The matter is past "hushing
