The walls around the city of Pekin
are from fifty to sixty feet high and av-
erage forty feet in width or thickness.
Whether the foreigners within this wall
are dead or living, the allied forces will
have a job on their hands to find out if
they ever reach the city. They must get
through or over this wall to know what
is the condition of things inside and it
will take a great force to do this, espec
tally if the Chinese show vigorous resist
ence, for under such conditions to scale
the walls will be next to an impossibility
and to break through them will be near
ly or quite as formidable an undertaking
1t is no small task to convey to Pekin
the great guns necessary to accomplish
this work, and it will take much time.

THE POEM.
I stood upon the oceans sandy beach,
And with reed | wrote upon the sand
these words:
Agnes, l love thee!"
But the winds came and the waves
rolled mountain high,
And blotted out the fair impression.
Cruel waves, treacherOus sand. fragile
reed;
No longer will trust to thee,
But from the highest mountain peak
I'll pluck the tallest pine,
And, dipped in the crater of Vesuvius,
with it will write
Upon the high and FURNISHED heavens
these words:
"A Wise Woman is drawing the larg-
est audiences ever known.
And giving an entertainment that will
take your breath away"
And [ would like to see any dog gone
wave wash that out.

Moral of the Garden.

Nothing teaches patience like gar
den. You may go round and watch the
opening bud from day to day, but it
takes it's own time, and you cannot
urge it on faster than it will. If forced,
it is only torn to pieces. All the best
results of a garden, like those of life,
are slowly but regularly progressive.-

Nkera he will will be confined in the
gsane asylum. hilstrom. started, en-
route last evening in charge Of the
sheriff
Hiistrom's examination on the
charge Of insanity was held yesterday
before q lunacy commission composed
Of Doctors kinney, Fulton and Beck
uaa. Judge Gray presided.
The circuit court room was crowd
ed 10 the doors when Judge Gray,
shortly after 10 o'clock. took his seat
and commanded the sheriff TO call for
order. Upon the front seat we're both
men and women who came from the
s Lewis and Cla>k district All were
.. Interested in the proceedings ard
there we're several who came to add
whatever evidence they could in con-
neetion with the tragedy. Only one,
hoaever. took .he witness stand. as
the doctors composing the commission
felt satisfied at an early stage in the
proceedings that Hilstrom was ligi-
innate subject for entry at the state
asylum Cor the insane.
There were many witnesses but the
most important were Hilstrom and
his wife.
The question Of Hilstrom'S mental
condition, however hung upon a slen-
der thread, as far as the main testi-
mony was concerned.
AS a matter Of fact, Hilstrom Is one
Of the most fortunate murderers that
ever escaped the gallows. In word
he is much more fool than lunatic.
That a murderer can escape the gal
lows because he is fool is due sole
ly to the American jury system, by
which a man is presumed to bel
judgec by his peers.
In every matter save that involving
the killing OF Lake Mooers. Hilstrom
4 appears perfectly sane. This was
proved by his story from the witness
stand yesterday; it has been estab-
lished by his actions in the past.
When Hilstrom took the witness
stand yesterday the worst opinion that
was framed was that he was a mani
Of simple mind. All mis- testimony |
was perfectly straightforward except
ing that which had direct bearing up
on the shooting of MOoers. Probably
the most conspicuous characteristic as
manifested by Hilstrom was his ap-
paront indifference as to the enormity
Of his deed. He seemed not to realize In
the slightest degree that by his foul
deed be had terminated the life Of
