present a real novelty. 1t is the patent
of Frank E. Kenny, an engineer of st.

When a building Is on fire, the smoke
exhauster is to be driven to the scene,
a window knocked out a pipe run into
the building. A stream from fire hy-
drant turned on through hose into the
water motor, instantaneously sets the
machine in full operation and. a fan
running TT 1.200 to 1880 revolutions a min
ute will draw the smoke from a building
SO the firemen can locate and fight the
fire. Lives will be saved, and people who
might be cut off from egress on account
of smoke can be rescued. The chief of
the fire department and the insurance
companies representatives have been in
vited to the public test which will be
given in a few days.

His Sanity Questioned by the PO-

Because he thought he was being fol-

stranger in the city, fired off his revolver
in Smith park early yesterday morning.
He was arrested by Patrolman ScanneIl
and acted so strangely at the central sta
ton that Judge Hine yesterday turned
him over to the probate court that the
prisoners sanity might be inquired into.
Newcome carried a bundle of miscellane-
Gus articles, including geological speci-
mems, and claims to be a pearl hunter.
He had $50 in his possession and de-
clared gang had been following him for
days, trying to set his money.

WILL ALTON GET IT?
HE is LIKELY TO MEET COMPETE
TEON WHEN HIS TERM EXPIRES.

There is considerable speculation in
educational circles as to whether or not
the term of State High School Inspector
George B. Alton, which expires July /,
will be followed by his reappointment.
Last year, when his term expired, the
pretext given for his reappointment was
that he was the only man in the state
willing to take the place who was quail
fed for it.
However, there are quite a few educa-
tors of repute in the state who are not
aYerse to the acceptance of such a posi-
ton and it is likely that Prof. Alton will
have to make race for the place this
time.

Fifty American Refugees Arrive at Tien Tsin-The French Minister Wires His Government of the

London, August 29.-(3:40 a. m.)-That the inexplicable delay in forwarding telez grams form the Chinese capital still con- tinues Is illustrated by the fact that the latest dispatch from Pehin, the telegram of the special correspondent Of the Asso- ciateed Press, describing the search fop Boxers" in the Imperial park, is dated no later than August 21
 There Is no confirmation from any source of the report of an advance northward from Pekin On the contray a movement with Taku is apparently in progress. The powers, as late as August 21, were still unable to agree as to how to deal with Pekin itself, the Japanese and Russians being at variance as to whether the Iuf. perial palaces should be destroyed.
 Nor is there any further news of the al- legged detention of Ii Hung Chang by the admirals. Probabilities increase that all the members of the Imperial household have gotten safely to the interior.

GERMANY OBSTINATE
Takes Firm Stand Against Sufficiency
 of Lis Credentials

Washington, D. C., Aug. 2s.-After the cabinet meeting today, 1t was announced that the government was in a waiting att utude regarding the Chinese situation.
 Several replies have been received to the instructions sent to our ambassadors and ministers last week, asking them to sound the governments to which they are accredl ited, two propositions-first, the willingness of these governments to accept the suffie ciency of Ii Hung Changs credentials to the powers for a settlement and assuranc4 II possible as to what the future policy of each power is to be- Regarding the latter inquiry the replies thus far have developed nothing.
 With regard to the first inquiry Great Britain and Russia are agreed that Earl Lis credentials are sufficient. Germany, however, takes a firm stand against the sufficiency of his credentials, and Is the only power as yet which has returned a flat-footed dissent. The attitude of the United States is that his credentials ap- pear authentic. They were promulgated by what appeared to be a genuine imperial edict duly transmitted through the ac- credited Chinese minister, MT. Wu, and the United States is willing to accept them at their face value-at least for the present.

 Marching behind them under colors fresher and brighter as their own fame must ever grow with the advancing years, came the units of that powerful organiza- tion of fighting men of a mighty race, un- conquered yet by land or sea. In them lay, and through them came, the force that has made the nation what 1t Is and what 1t will be. No matter what might come In the future, the men before them had made the past glory that might mellow but never these things in a breath as rank after rank of the old soldiers wheeled into the avenue, went wild with enthusiasm. They cheered, waved their hats, and cheered again until they could cheer no more. Then they stood as they had stood for the battered flags, With barred heads, as the veterans with steps more halting than of old, but with hearts as high as ever, passed on to make the parade of 1900 what they had made many other march-a credit to themselves and an honor to their country.
 A picturesque feature was supplied by the Louisiana veterans, who carried pieces or sugar cane, topped with great punches of cotton.

Tien Tsin, August 25-Via Taku August H.-Fifty Americans, including the Misses Smith, Woodward and Payne, have arrived here from PeEin, which city they left five days ago by boat The Commissary Department Is preparing to establish an ex- tensive winter base at Tong Ku.
 Lieutenant Waldron of the Ninth United States Infantry, received a serious sniping wound while patrolling at Hoshiru. The Russians, Germans and Japanese are con- stantly pushing troops on to Pekin.
 The Miss Woodward referred to in the dispatch from Tien Tsin is undoubtedly the daughter of Mrs. Woodward wife of Nj. S. Woodward, assistant manager of the Western Adjustment Company. They were guests of Minister Conger at Pekin. Mrs. and Miss Woodward left Evanston in Feb ruary to make tour of Japan and China. They were accompanied by Mrs. Conger the wife the Minister.

It was here that the three or four blows with a strap were admins tered by Superintendent Mcbride, who de- sisted at once as he began to see that Ward was i'll.
 On the advice of R. H. Clark, the man who operates the camp Mcbride told Ward to go to the shade and lay down, and Mo- Bride followed him, chaining him to the tree so that, as he states, in case Ward de- veloped disposition to escape. he would not have the opportunity.
 Leaving the man in this condition, Mc- bride went away, later finding Ward dead.
