Attack from sc, 200 Boxers Anticipated --
Preparations to Meet 1t.

London, Aug. 27--4 a. m.-The latest
news from Pekin indicates that the sit
uation there is unchanged. The inlperi-
al city is still invested, but not yet oc-
cupied. The allies, when the last mes
sage left, were still refraining from ag-
gressiye action, pending Instructions
from their governments. An attack
from 10000 Boxers was anticipated, and
to meet this the whole American force
and the British artillery, according to
a dispatch to the Morning Post from
Pekin, dated August Is, were moved 10
the outer city wall The Boxers were
reported coming from the south.
Shanghai advices say that the report
of the capture of Emperor Kwang Su
by the Japanese was erroneous. 1t was
a case of mistaken identity.
The Pekin correspondent of the Daily
Telegraph, wiring August 10, reasserts
that the empress dowager fled west
ward, and adds: she has a body guard
of fifteen hundred, and as the noun
famous character of the country would
prevent artillery following it is believed
that she will not be pursued"

STUB ENDS OF THOUGHT.
BY ARTHUR G. LEWIS.

G. LEWIS.
Much that we call forgetfulness is
nothing but hopeless resignation
after all.
Gratitude we'll expressed is both an
accomplishment and n virtue.
A fool in authority Is an expensive
luxury TO his employer, and an insult
to his employees.
There are many good features in hu-
man nature we never discover on ac-
copnt of not possessing them our
selves.
No man doubts another until he him
self has been guilty of deception.
Accept adverse business conditions
gracefully. Irritability and excitement
under such circumstances represents
nothing but waste energy.
We seldom lose All faith in human
nature. until all faith is lost in our
selves.
IF possession is nine points In law
1t is about sixteen points in love.
Mre intelligent ideas are thrown In
waste baskets. than placed on file.
Virginian-pilot. (Norfolk, Va.) 1898-1911, 1900-08-12

Hasto and dispatch are foreign to
zach other. One is an accomplishment.
tho other q misfortune.
As sacred music softens the heart to
prayer. so gentle words often shame 4
path TO pardon.
Never boast of your ethical short
comings. but frankly admit your weak
hess rather than sail under false colors.
Hyprocisy is dishonest and creative
OF the worst type of self-contempt.
Lack Of confidence is the canker
worm OF affection.
Our own happiness is regulated. to a
large extent, by the consideration we
have Cor the welfare of others.
Self qualification is not generosity,
but charity would suffer greatly by Its
absence.
Some men never correct their faults
until they are too old to commit them.
More children die through Ignorance
than are saved by science, and many
broad mind has been narrowed by
adopting the suggestions of an ass.
