Tien Tsin, August 6, via Shanghai,
August 1.-THE army advanced twelve
miles today. Two reliable couriers, who
left Pekin on August /, arrived today at
Tien Tsin. They say that the empress
dowager fed the foreigners for few
days. The former viceroy Of Shan
Tung, who is bitterly anti-foreign, ar
rived with new troops, according to
these couriers, and planted two batter
les on the wall near the legations. The
enemy began shelling, and opened a
fierce rifle fire which was kept up for
two days. The head Of the missionary
board, with party, while trying to get
provisions, was killed. The army took
Yam Tsun today. They suffered heav-
lily. The American loss is small.

fore the mistake was discovered many
American soldiers had been killed or
wounded by the Russian shells. The
14th regiment took part in the attack
on the Chinese trenches. AS the Chin
ese fled the regiment entered, and oc-
cupied one of the Chinese positions. The
Russian battery some distance off did
not notice the movement, opened fire on
the position, and planted shells among
the American troops. The Russians
were quickly notified and ceased firing.

bility, earnestness and energy 90 for
anything, Miss Scanlan's venture will
undoubtedly meet with success. There
is certainly place for such a store in
Minneapolis. The Catholic population
is large and rapidly increasing; there
is demand for Catholic literature
which has heretofore been but meagerly
supplied, and furnishings for local
churches have of necessity been pur-
chased in neighboring cities. This un-
happy condition of things should be
speedily changed with the opening of
the new store, in which will be found
an extensive line of church goods, Ca
tholic books, periodicals, etc. With a
wide acquaintance in Catholic circles,
an excellent business training, and an
aptitude for business methods, Miss
Scanlan will undoubtedly make the Ca
tEolic book store a success. To the
new undertaking the Irish Standard en-
tends its best wishes.

General Shaiter We have shared in
the sorrows and trials of the nation,
have been saddened at her distresses,
and have rcjoiced in her triumphs. Yet
there are those among lis who, while
they are perfectly willing we should
bear our proportion OF the nations bur-
dens, would deny us the privilege OF
sharing in the nations glory. There
are those who minimize or wilfully mis-
represent the part we have played in the
upbuiidlng OF this nation. or the still
more glorious part we played in the
civilization OF mankind in the DAYS
gone by, when we were free from the
letters OF an alien government. 1t
should be the duty oil societies like this
to show our fellow citizens that we
stand to-day, where VIC have stood for
| centuries, i'll the forefront OF those in
iluences that make for higher civilza-
ton, and which would give to every
man the greatest liberty for the fullest
lreest development of every faculty with
which his Creator endowed him. 1t
should be the duty OF societies like this
to preserve for the future historian the
record OF the part which our people
have taken in developing the resources
OF this country, i'll shaping its polity, or
influencing its policy. For after all it
is the pen that gives Immortality to
glorious deeds, and we should not neg
lcct or overlook its influence. Mara
thon would have long since faded from
the memory OF man were not its glorics
enslrined i'll the pages OF the historian,
and even Washington, who passed
away only a century ago, would to-day
be fading into the dim past, had not
the pen forever immortalizcd his name.
