BRAVE CATHOLIC MISSIONARIES.

The defense of the Legation pales be-
fore the defense of the Peitang or Roman
Catholic Mission, at Peking. This is three
miles from the Legations. There were
Bishop Favier, six or seven priests, some
20 sisters and some 1000 native converts,
men, women and children, with 80 French
and 10 Italian guards, with only 40 rifles
in all. When one of the guards fell his
rife was handed to a native convert.
The enemy exploded five mines altogeth-
er under the besieged, in one of which
some so persons, principally women and
children, and FIVE Italian guards were
killed. The Italian officer was buried in
it for three-quarters of an hour, and was
taken out almost unhurt.
After the relief another large mine was
discovered under the church itself, the ex-
plosion of which would have caused a
tremendous loss of life. Electric conduc-
tors were found in this mine.
The Peitang beat the Legation in one
thing; in that the converts succeeded in
capturing one of the enemy's guns with
its ammunition and in making ammuni-
ton for it when the captured supply came
to an end. For two months there was no
communication between the Peitang and
the Legations, and neither knew how the
other was faring. At the end the rations
at the Peitang We're reduced to two ounces
of rice a day a head, with a little horse
meat for the fghting-men, and if the re-
lief had not come when it did the majority
of the 1900 converts, the priests and the
sisters must have died of starvation.

WORK OF THE WOMEN.

Several of the ladies devoted themselves
to nursing the sick and wounded in the
hospital. Every morning Mrs. Squiers,
wife of the First Secretary to the Ameri-
can Legation, took the patients in the Off
GERS and civilians hospital a breakfast of
coffee, hot rolls and butter, but they were
the only people who received these lux
uries.

THE CoMMISsARIAT.

The commissariat might have been
worse and it might have been better.
There was plenty of rice, and two Chinese
ponies were killed daily for meat. There
were very few sheep, Chief Secretary
J. r. Brazier, of the customs, being shep-
herd, but these were kept for the hospital.
Six children died from want of milk and
proper nouriShment.
Wine there was in reasonable quantity,
and champagne was a staple drink. Whis-
ky was plentiful, too, though brandy ran
very short; the latter was needed badly
for sickness. Eggs were occasionally pro-
durable from Chinese soldier, who also
sold ammunition and false intelligence for
consideration. This Chinaman would
stroll up to the gate Gt was of course ar
ranged with the Chinese officials) and col
lect $50 every day as per arrangement
with Sir Claude Macdonald, the British
Minister. He would tell them all sorts of
lies about how near the allies were to
Peking, the news from the outside, etc.
He was also entrusted with messages to
be sent out. He collected his money each
day for 10 days. The British Minister
had faith in him when many of the others
were suspicious.

LITTLE NEWS FROM OUTSIDE.

Until four days before the relief the be-
sieged received practically only two mes
sages from the outside world. One was
from Mr.. Carries, the British Consul at
Tientsin; the other was from Mr.. Rags
dale, the United States Consul at Tien-
tsin. Neither said anything about relief,
but both urged the besieged to keep up
their spirits. Aug. 10 letters were received
from Gen. Gaselee, of the relieving force,
and the japanese General, dated Hosiwoo,
Aug. 8. These brought the good news
that relief was on the way, Gen. Gaselee,
stating that the Chinese were flying before
the allies, and the japanese General Civ
ing the exact dates on which the force
would arrive at Tung- Chow, outside Pc
king and in the capital itself.

USEFUL MISSIONARIES.

The missionaries generally were not
armed, and did not take their place in the
fighting line. but they were most useful
in many other ways, and in their unabat-
ed cheerfuness under ali circumstances,
which was often as good as tonic to
those who were wearied or inclined, as
they were sometimes, to be despondent.
One of the missionaries started a bakery,
there being a good stock of flour from
which he turned out excellent bread, and
all made themselves useful one way or
another.
The missionaries were quartered in the
Legation Chapel and over so of them slept
there
The National tribune., 1900-11-01

Here are diplomats galore, representing

And they cause Tsung Ii Yamen anxious

ing Sir Robert Hart was a notable figure
He sank his position as Inspector General
entirely, holding himself as a plain Eng.
lishman and no more. He worked hard
and calamity with the rest, drawing the
same rations, and showing at all times
strength and fortitude.
THE ATTACKERS IDENTITY.
As to the nature of the attackers there
can be no doubt. Such dead Chinese as
were within reach were denuded of their
clothes, and the defenders have now in
their possession hundreds of Chinese uni
forms which prove that their assailants
were regular soldiers, chiefly those of
Tung Fu-hsiang.
The defenders, one and all, practically
lost everything, so far as personal effects
are concerned. All the archives of the
Imperial Maritime Customs are destroyed,
though Sir Robert Hart has rescued his
diary. This last should be interesting.

Cow with Queer Annette.

Occasionally we hear of cattle that
develop an abnormal appetite for
wood, eating rotten pieces of boards,
etc. A contributor to National Stock
nan states that at one Crawford
county institute a gentleman COM
planned that one of his COWS had
eaten a pig-pen, string of fence and
other lumber on the premises, and he
ad been compelled to fence her away
ON the barn to save it. He has fed
4er many and various feeding stuffs,
besides bonemeal, sawdust and other
side-dishes. With lumber at present
prices, the COW has expensive tastes
He wishes to know what produced the
appetite, and what will cure it. He
thinks he has provided foods that fur
nish all the mineral elements needed,
and the inclination to chew sticks and
Boards seems now TO be only vicious
habit.

HOW TO PREVENT FLIES.
FIRST Essential Is the Removal of
Filth and Trash, Their Natural
Breeding Ground.

One of the greatest nuisances about
a farm is the pest of flies in the sum-
mer and fall. 1t would be hard to
estimate the loss occasioned by them
every year about the barns. dairy and
feed-lots. No COW can do herself JUS
tice where she is forced to keep up a
continued battle with a swarm of
flies from daylight until dark. Wor-
rying at the flies is more wearing on
team than hard labor. The cause
of pastured and fattening stock los
ing flesh in the summer is the flies.
AS with most evils, the best cure is
prevention. TO prevent the pest one
must remove their breeding-gro
which is the filth and trash about the
premises. 1t is the case on most
farms that the manure-heaps are al
lowed to accumulate during the sum-
mer and the yards to go uncleaned.
These furnish the best of breeding
places for the flies. Swill barrels and
buckets, too, are never washed out,
but are allowed to sour and become
incrusted with dirt, another source
of flies. In feeding the hogs and
calves milk and slop are spilled about
the troughs and barrels day after
day. The grouad thus treated soon
becomes hotbed for the eggs, which
will hatch and feed there. Open
closets and uncovered drains are an
other source, as is any place where
there is decayed matter or filth for
the maggots to thrive upon after
latching. Flies are far more of a
,ocal pest than most people imagine.
A farmhouse whose grounds are kept
clean and whose back yard is free
from refuse, slops, etc, will be little
troubled with flies. Stock kept in a
clean stable or lot will be less troubled
than the animals of the untidy, shift
'ss farmer. Cleanliness and flies do
ot thrive together.-J. L. Irwin, in
arm and Fireside.

just above rail with long staple, doing
same at both ends put on another rail
as before, and continue till top of posts
is reached, which completes the first
panel. The other panels are made in
the same way. taking care not to have
both ends of the panel on the same side
of posts, but run alternately as started.
The illustration shows the way rails
are stapled to posts and the manner of
running panels. AS the rails when put
on posts in this way do not touch each
other they will last longer than when
put on any other way; and | like this
method of making use of old rails very
well, for by setting posts and using a
little wire a good fence can be made
from very poor one. Build six to eight
rails high. Should a post rot off any
time set another near it and fasten
rails as before. - j. G. Allshouse, in
Farm and Fireside.
