TUESDAY, JULY II, 1900.

The tale Of horror that comes from
China is enough to make ones blood
run cold. The Boxers are adopting the
methods Of the Sioux Indians with re-
gard to the women, children are slain
and men are subject to torture. In
their fanaticism the Chinese have be-
come demons. No quarter seems to be
given anywhere to their defenseless vic
Tins. WHAT the outcome will be no
man can say. but this much is certain:
The civilized nations of the earth will
retaliate and see that a government Of
a stable character is established in the
Chinese empire.

SENATOR WHITES VIEWS.

Former Senator Stephen NJ. White Of
California does not share the opinion
of lone OF his democratic friends that
tho United States should sit supinely
by and BEE its ministers and mission
arits An China slaughtered. A corre-
spdndent of the st. Louis Globe Dem
ocAts says he called at the state de-
paHment Saturday to consult Secretary
HsS bn the Chinese situation. He ex-
pressed the opinion that a long wal in
China was in prospect. in which the
European powers, with England, Japan
anl the United States as allies, would
become involved unless prompt action
is taken. 1t is Mr.. Whites Judgment
that $4,000 troops will be needed to
quellthe disturbances. and more II the
riots should extend into Southern Chi
ma.
To these views Secretary Hay re-
piled 1t did not seem to the adminfstn-
ton that there was any prospect Of

We regret to note that the democ-
tacy feels called upon to defend the
Boxers Of China In their war upon hui
manity and civilization. The New
York Herald (and the article is in
dorsed and copied by the democratic
press throughout tho nation) takes the
ground that the Chinese are even JUS
tined in slaughtering our people In that
country. In retaliation for the Chinese
lives lost in the riots Of this country.
Oh, course the Herald has reference to
tie Rock Springs riot Of 1885. 1t would
- intsrcsting to look up the political
cDmS1exion OF the me who killed the
Chiniips1 It Rock Springs and who
atterward condemned a republican
governor for aiding In restoring order
thGfe. Tho Rock Springs affair was de-
iplora6fe in the extreme. but it is not
eause for the democracy to say that the
present condition at Peking is just
r~stribution. Again the Herald asserts
'that Il ID An affair belonging entirely
to the European nations and that the
United States should keep its hands
OF. II our minister and his family have
been killed and hundreds of mission
sf1es from the United States ruthlessly
slain, tho American government will
not fold its hands and say, I'VE are
even now; that makes up for the Chi
nese miners killed at Rock Springs"
The Chinese government is taking a
hand In the killing now going on at
Psking and must be held responsible.
II It is too weak to preserve the peace
in. that nation, then it must be over
thrown. and a stable government es-
tAb,isbed.

The separation OF the sexes and children
from the adults, it is believed, will not

The District Branch.
As the business is now conducted, Judge

over the other section of the court, is in
charge of the District branch where, in

collecting dollars and cants for the Dis

Judge Scott is exceptionally well qualified

Exercises at the Ralston University of
Expression.

The commencement exercises of the phys
ical culture class of the Ralston University
OF Expression, which took place last night
in the building of the institution on G street
between 18th and 18th streets northwest,
were attended by hundreds of people, who
gave every evidence OF qualification.
There were nine groups Of pupils, and
as each group had two trials it made a
program of eighteen numbers. The work
was entirely pantomimic and was perform
ed to musical cadence, ana the excellence
consisted in the unison movements of each
group, the grace and ease of action and
the earnestness of expression. Each group
was distinguished by a particular color and
the audience and judges were requested to
mark those colors which, in their judg-
ment, reached the highest degree of excel
lence The evolutions consisted of various
moVement-glvinS expression to different ac-
tons and emotions, and were all executed
with good precision. After the program
was completed and while the decision was
being made up, Mr.. f. b. Hay made brief
but effective address, complimenting the
faculty of the institution and particularly
its president, Mr.: Webster Edgerly, on the
rapid development, both in the curriculum
and in the number of pupils He said that
at lts entertainments and commencemcntS
these VINO attended were always sure of
witnessing something novel. unique and
original, and he predicted still greater sue
cess for the university.
Tho decision of the judges was announced
by DR.. Franklin Il. Howe, the referee who
said that in the first part marked white y
and expressive of punching and the
group IN the second part marked Red
depicting a "Gipsy Camp" were considered
to have exhibited the highes. degree of ex-
celience. Those comprising these groups
were follows:

THOUSAND MILES A MINUTE
VERY RAPID TRANSIT PROPOSED BY
THOMAS j. PARK,
Appeal to Police Department Results
in the Mans Detention at Hos
pital for Insane.

Two days ago a .middle-aged man who
gave his name as Thomas ]. Park called
at police headquarters with a roll of paper
and said he had the specifications for a
railroad. What he wanted was a permit to
build the road and run cars at the rate of
at least 900 miles in sixty minutes. He
made the statement that his train would go
through air or water, and said he could
prove the truth of his assertion by exhibit
ing the papers that he had with him. Chief
Clerk Kemp, to whom the stranger insisted
on telling the story, referred the caller to
Sanitary Officer Frank and the man is now
in the insane asylum.
Park, who is known in Prince Georges
and Calvert counties, in Maryland.
missouri, has spent most of his time dur
ing the past year on the Chesapeake bay.
near Chesapeake Beach When he first
appeared there no one knew whence he had
come, although later on he said he was
from Missouri, and that his relatives live
in Tennessee. He did some work on the
Chesapeake Beach railroad. His clothing
gave him the appearance that was present.
ed by many of the men in Coxey's army.
At times he would disappear suddenly, and
at the end of few weeks would return to
his little shack the shore. For months
he did his own cooking, and at night slept
beneath the long pier at the Beach or in
an old shanty in the woods.
Supplied With Food.
The people did not permit him to suffer
for food, although he was never known to
do any begging. Most of his time was
spent in fishing, and he had an idea that it
was his duty to entertain all the strangers
who appeared at Chesapeake Beach, espe-
cially If they indicated desire to go fish
ing.
Among the numerous inventions he talk
ed of was a patent bait, made to represent
a fish. and he explained how he could fool
the fish. About three weeks ago Mis-
souri, made a bundle of his earthly be-
longings, which consisted of two blankets,
and started westward. Before leaving he
called at the dining room and intrusted his
baggage to the care of the proprietress.

Some of the many suggestions as to the
manner of handling prisoners and the meth
cd of trying them in the Police Court are
likely to be adopted in the near future Con-
gress has already taken hand in the
matter, and it is believed that before the
end of the present session definite action

in which prisoners have been huddled to-
sether in the police vans and court cells
irrespective of age or Sex will undoubtedly
be reformed.
The judges of the court are interested in
pending legislation, as is Maj Sylvester
chief of police. 1t is contended that the
present building is not at all adapted to
its uses. and an effort will be made to
get an appropriation for the erection of a
new one. As the business is now conducted
satisfactory results cannot be obtained and
complaints are frequently made of the in
adequacy of the accommodations The
