No Peace Till Ministers Are Safe

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-The reply
of the United States Government to
the peace overtures of China was given
out at the State Department today.
That the United States had taken
this course bad already become pretty
we'll understood, but the announce
ment Of the text Of the message dis
closed the firm policy which the United
States had adopted.
The United States, in its response,
lays down certain specific preliminaries
to any peace overture, including an en-
tirely new demand, namely, that a suf
ficiently large force from the allied
column shall be allowed to enter Pelsin
unopposed and conduct the members of
the legations and their citizens from
the Chinese capital to Tien Tsin. While
this last demand might have been in
ferred from the previous rejection by
the United States of the proposal for
Chinese escort, it is now put forward
as an exact and unalterable demand
which China must accept uncondition-
ally il she hopes to stay the advance of
the international forces or hopes to
even have considered any other condi-
tions OF peace which she may desire to
put forward to the offended powers.
The reply was sent to Ii Hung Chang
through Minister Congsr, and as there
are no delays in communicating with
him similar to those in dealing with
Pekin, it may be expected that China's
peace envoy will be acquainted today
with the position of tho United States.

Minneapolis, Minn., Juy 3o.-The
Journal says: Charles A. Towne will
be withdrawn from the populist ma
tional ticket about August Is. At
that time the populist national COM
mittee will accept his resignation and
replace him with Adlai E. Stevenson
as the nominee Of the populist party

is such as to make it impossible to
question its accuracy. Certain con-
siderations of policy, which cannot
now be made public, are responsible
for the retention of Mr.. Towne on the
ticket until the date named The de-
cision that he should withdraw was
arrived at some weeks ago.
During the campaign Mr.. Towne is to
be utilized as campaign orator, to

ONE WOMAN'S NERVE.
Mrs. Charles f. Lenone Holds Down
Rabid Dog and Drives u Spir-
ited Horse to Assistance.

Mrs. Charles F. Lenone, wife of a
wealthy business man OF Passiac, N.
j., displayed an amount of cool nerve
and courage the other day that enti-
ties her to high rank among modern
heroines. With one hand she held a
mad dog in the bottom of her carriage
and with her other she drove a spir-
tied horse three miles to her home,
when the afflicted animal was killed
She could have easily rid herself of all
danger by tossing the dog out of the
vehicle, but she knew the beast would
bite some one if permitted to run at
large. So she held on to him, although
she had to fight every inch of the way
during the long drive to save her
self.
All during the drive the dog strug-
gled and snapped at the plucky wom-
an. On reaching Kehoe's S stables she
called to several grooms. They wanted
to kill the dog at once, but Mrs. Le-
none insisted upon a veterinary first
seeing the. animal.
said the dog was suffering from rabies
and should be, killed at once. Several
grooms managed to get the dog into
an empty box stall, and there he was
shot
Not until the dog was killed did
Mrs. Lenone's courage fail her. She
had to be helped to her home. =
