Mr.. A. A. Morrow received .
letter from Mayor j. q. Lee, COM
missioner Of Agriculture. stating
that it will give him pleasure to
hold institutes in 81 Msrttnville
and Bresux Bridge during the
fall or winter. Major Lee says:
1t is one of the main objects Of
this department to secure, along
with the Institute not only q per-
msnent club organization bat also
to secure the organization of q Pa
rish Agricultural Fair. These
three 60 hand in hand and will do
more to develop the parish, to pro-
mote agriculture than anything
that could be undertaken. Your
parish club should consider this
matter and if practicable hold q
Fair this fall at the same time as
the Institute. The usual plan of
these organizations in North Lou
isisna, where We have great sue
cess. is that this Department - q
starter offers 5000 in premiums,
the Police Jury gives $4,000 or
more, the City Council, the Mer-
chants and ell interested supple
mented by subscriptions to the
premium fund. The Major says
II am extremely anxious 10 $50
these fairs started in Southwest
Louisiana and 70 that end ! pledge
my active support, cooperation
and assistance. As the Messen-
ger has often stated, the fairs have
been very successful in other pa
rishes of the State, and We believe
it would be . success here too.
and would prove very beneficial
to the agricultural interest.

SIMPSON a MARYLANDER.
The Missing Naval Lieutenant Once
Served in Baltimore.

BALTIMORE, Oct Lieut.. Edward
Simpson, commanding the United States
gunboat Yillalobos, which is thought to
have fallen into the hands of the Filipi-
nos, with Company F of the Twenty-ninth
Infantry, under command of Captain
Shields, is a Marylander. He was a son
of the late Rear Admiral Simpson and
was appointed to the Naval Academy at
large. Several years ago he married Miss
Ridgely, of Hampton. Baltimore county,
and up to being ordered to sea in Feb
ruary. 1888. resided at No. East Eead
Street.
In 1897 Lieutenant Simpson was order
ed TO the Baltimore branch photographic
Office, he then having returned from a
cruise to China on the cruiser Baltimore
From the photographic Office he was
placed IN command of the United States
Coast Survey steamer Endeavor. While
in that command he was detached and or
dered to the Brooklyn. the flagship of Ad-
miral Schley and fought one Of her 5-inch
guns at the battle of Santiago Bay. Con-
tinuing in service on the Brooklyn he
went with her to China, and while there

LONDON Oct 1.-Notw thstanding the
ostensibly earnest effort of the Chinese
rulers 10 punish the high officials who have
been in colIusion with the Boxers, it is
believed here that serious trouble is likely
time. The incendiary and anti-foreign ele-
ment among the Chinese understands that
the Imperial Government is wholly in
sympathy with the Boxer movement and
that the professed determination of the
Empress Dowager TO degrade and punish
those responsible for. the recent outrages is
the result of the fear of the powers and
not inspired by a sense of justice.
There are high officials here who are bod
enough to express the opinion that the all
lies may yet be taken unawares by the
revolutionary forces and that disastrous re-
suits are likely to follow The Boxers, they
believe. are being held in check merely as
a matter OF temporary diplomacy, and the
procrastination of the powers in retaliating
for the wholesale outrages upon foreigners
is doing much to strengthen their hands.
Warnings are frequently heard against
allowing the professions of the Chinese
sovereign to Iull the soldiers of civilizs-
ton into a sense OF security. The duplici-
ty OF the Chinese is proverbial and = is
pointed out that their nature has not been
changed in a few short months and that
they viii practice deceptions so long as
1t is to their advantage to do so.
In line with these opinions is a despatch
which reached the ''Mesagero," at Rome
today and which states that 20, coo Boxers
are concentrating north of Tekin There
are, says the despatch. Sc. 000 of them as
sembled west of the city.
There is little doubt here that, as soon
as opportunity offers. the Chinese fanatics
will Immediately take possession Of the
Celestial capital which has been wrested
from them by the military forces of the
nations. If this should be undertaken, it
would fare i'll with those foreigners who
chanced to remain within Pekin's walls.
A despatch from Hongkong says that
the gunboat Robin has shelled Lutclao,
on the West River, in retaliation for the
stoning of the British steamer Lungkiang
The gunboat Sandpiper was stoned while
passing Shekwan, but the consul at Can
ton advised her commander not to reta.-
late
According to a despatch from st. Pc
tersburg, todays "Oficial Messenger
says that the tasks of the Government in
the Far East have been definitely descrfD-
ed in official communications, the tenor
of which makes it sufficiently clear that
the reports OF the incorporation Of Man
churia are devoid of foundation.

that the improved conditions will come
rapidly enough. Without the union we
can do nothing. We are not going to give
1t up
The strikers are doubtful about the
feelings of the men in the Lehigh and
SchuylkiN regions and fear they may be
induced to return to work. but they have
confidence in the strength OF the $4,000
miners in this upper coal field to hold out
and force the operators to grant better
terms than the 10 per cent proposed.
Preparations for the big parade OF strik-
ers tomorrow will be completed this af-
ternoon. Twenty-Five thousand men are
expected to be in line and President Mitch
ell with his staff Of speakers and perhaps
Father Dueey, of New York, will be pres
ent. The city is being decorated today and
the fences at West Side Park are being
torn down in order to permit the great
crowd expected to enter easily. It will be
the largest outpoUring of organized miners
since the anthracite coal fields were OPEN
ed Forty towns will be represented.

NO WORD FROM REMEY.
News of the Movement Against shan
hai-kwnR Not Confirmed.


hai-kvvaR Not Confirmed.
The press despatch from Tientsin that
a joint expedition of the foreign forces,
in which the United States ship Brook
lyn will participate, Will proceed from
Taku to Shan hai-kwan, is not confirmed
by the Navy Department. The depart
ment doubts that Admiral Remey would
join in such a movement without seek
ing the advice OF the Government, and
he has not done So If the expedition
have a hostile intention it is not prob
able, officials say, that Remey will send
an American ship, as such actien would
be contrary to the spirit of the present
attitude of the United States.
1t is regarded as reasonable, however,
that the expedition has for its object
merely the control of Shan-hai-kwan
because that place is the water termi-
nus of an unfortifed, overland route to
Pekin, whicI would be more available, If
a winter campaign becomes necessary,
that the route from Taku. The Pei Ho
which runs from Taku TO Pekin, becomes
frozen about November /, and makes
river traffic between the Chinese capital
and Taku impossible.

WEST SUPERIOR. Wis. Oct 1-Thif
city is prcfusely decorated today in honor
of Mr.. Bryan who will deliver an address
from the balcony of the West Superior
Hotel. Flags are flying everywhere and
many business houses are decorated with
pictures of the Democratic Presidential
candidate, on banners inscribed with
antitrust and anti-imperiaIistic devices
Thousands have come into the city II
hear the Nebraskan and everything bearf
a holiday appearance. Mr.. Bryan is as.
sured of one Of the largest and most eh<
thusiastic audiences that has greeted him
on his Western tour
This is another very busy day for ths
Nebraskan. At the conclusion of his
speech here, he will be hurried hack ta
Duluth where he is scheduled 10 deliver
an address at the armory. Elaborate prep-
arations have been made for his reception
in that city and thousands viii hear Mr..
Bryan discuss the paramount issues Of
the campaign.
After his speech at Duluth, Mr.. Bryan
will leave for ST. Paul and Minneapo-
lis tonight.
He is to make several stops during the
day, including West Duluth, Carlton.
HinckIey, Pine City, Rush City. North
Bismarck, Saltwater, and White Bear.
Mr. Bryan is bearing the Iabors Of the
Western campaign well and without a
sign Of i'll effect. His voice continues
strong and resonant and his vigor in
ereases rather than diminishes. The cor
dial reception given him wherever he
stops seems to act as q tonic and an III
spiration TO the Democratic Standard
bearer, while reports from the East are
of a most encouraging character The
Nebrasi1an continues to make converts in
the West and many who were opposed to
his candidacy in 1896 have come out OPEN
ly in his support, because of his fight
against tendencies in national govern
ment that threaten the very existence Of
the Republic.
The people of the West are very much
wrought up against trusts and the imperi-
aHstic attitude Of the Administration.
These issues have estranged many sub.
stantial men from the Republican party
The younger element of the West IS en-
thusaistically for the Democratic candi-
date, and Mr. Bryan receives a. daily as
surance Of their support IN the election
The demand for speeches from Mr.. Bry-
an from points in the East continues with
out abatement and when the Nebraskan
reaches that section of the country he
will endeavor to satisfy all those who are
eager to hear him by selecting as points
for his addresses places that are central
and easily reached by the railroads.
