HKAvY LIST OF CASUALTIES.
Under cover of the darkness the men Of
the ninth crept back from their dangerous
position, bearing their wounded. They
executed this movement with a loss of one
man killed. The casualties we're ninety
one men and five officers out of 426.
''The marines lost Thirty, including
Captain Davis, who was shot through the
heart while talking to Colonel Meade on
the night of July l3.
cit was decided to withdraw when news
came that the Chinese were evacuating.
"The Russians we're not 20 successful as
they had hoped during the day, and the
total loss of the allies was 700. The Japa'
nese losses were severe. The Japanese
were most gallant in the fight; but for the
Americans stopping the flank fire the Jap
anese loss would have been much heavier.
"The French, japanese, American and
British entered the city at 2 O'Clock on the
morning ofJuly IA. Their entry was un-
opposed.
"The American flag at half mast was
hoisted over the south gate. The walls
we're strewn with the corpses Of Chinese
soldiers killed by the shell fire which caus-
ed their fight. None apparently was hit
by bullets, the damage being done by lyd-
dite shells.
"There is terrible row over the burn
ing of the town. Several foreign officers
are reported lost.
"The tired soldiers remained on the
walls. The natives went looting through
the Chinese town. The bank and arsenal
were heavy sufferers.
"An advance movement on Pekin is
not contemplated soon.
"The American wounded crowded the
hospital, but all are doing well. The flags
of the allied armies are all half masted.

lecturesl

A move is now well under way to &C.
cure for our vicinity four first class lec'
lures, or three lectures and a fine male
quartette, for next Winter, and with
prompt support of our citizens there is nc
doubt of success. The Tazewell Woman't
Club has the business part of the mattel
in hand, and these ladies have secured the
attractions, provided enough tickets car
be sold to pay for them. They are offer
ing the four tickets for $1.50-373c pei
lecture.
Such an opportunity should be EN-
braced, and we hope to see the 300 season
tickets ($1.50 each) made good this week
for only by prompt action can the dates
be arranged. The plan is to have Gen
Gordon with US in November, but if the
tickets are not taken at once, the evening
which he can give US will be promised
elsewhere.
Bob Taylor, Burdette and Carleton (ol
another equally we'll known speaker) viii
follow Gordon through the Winter-thui
giving us something to look forward to al
the time.
Will not every citizen of Tazewell make
himself committee of one to do his bes'
to help secure these attractions, which
will not only give us pleasure but benefit
our entire community? Do not delay but
give your earnest help before it is toe
late.

TAZEwELL WHITE SULPHUR.
For Many Years A Popular Health Re-
sort, But Neglected for Thirty
Years Past

The old Tazewell White Sulphur Springs,
situated about three and half miles west
of town, forty or fifty years ago was very
popular as health resort, and was visited
annually by a large number Of the most
prominent families of Tazewell, of the sur
rounding counties, and many visitors from
different Southern States.
People went there not only to recuper-
ate their health by imbibing the splendid
mineral water, but to enjoy the excellent
social features created by the gathering of
q number of cultured and jolly people.
Buckley, in bis history of Tazewell, pub
lished in 1862, says the place was the most
popular resort in the county and speaks
in high terms Of its healthgiving and 80
cial features. 1t was then owned by
Thomas II. Gillespie, who continued its
owner until after the Civil War.
The writer can remember spending a
few weeks there with bis parents in the
Summer of 1854. Most of the old fami'
lies in Tazewell had representatives among
the guests, of whom there we're hundred
or more. The Bowens, Georges, Giles
pies sWittens, Peerys, Harrssons, Gra-
hams, Cecils, Thompsons, Higginboth'
ans, Harmans, and many others had
their representatives there. 1t was q gay
and happy crowd, perhaps numbering
one hundred or more. Granville H.
Jones was then keeping the Springs. Near
ly all who were then guests have passed
away.
The Springs continued to be visited un.
Ill the Civil War came on, but during the
four years of war the buildings went to de-
cay, and shortly after the war were sold
to II. R. Boyle.
During the boom period q party Of
gentlemen purchased the Springs and
twenty acres Of land surrounding, with q
view of improving the property, and once
again making it Summer resort Their
plans, however, did not msterialize.
1t is true that this is not an age of sen.
timent, but there is still enough senti-
ment left among the people of Tazewell
county TO look tenderly upon spot where
their ancestors in the forties and ifties
were wont to assemble for social enjoy
ment and in search of health. The place
is hallowed with associations to many OF
us. This alone should create desire to
see the property once again used for the
purposes our mothers, fathers and other
dear relatives employed it.
From practical standpoint 1t should
also be done. No better mineral water
ever issued from mother earth. The
main sulphur spring is large, fine how'
ing stream, with splendid temperature, and
the scenery is picturesque and inviting.
1t is only half hours drive from town,
and there are many persons in our town
and surrounding country who have neith-
er the time nor money to 60 to more dis
tant resorts who could occasionally enjoy
themselves and recreate at home resort,
if they had it near. Can't some plan be
devised for erecting buildings at the
Tazewell White Sulphur by the time an
other Summer comes? We believe it
could be a made a success. Try it.

"a TISSUE OF FALSEHOODS.""
Dswey's Comment on Alleged Inter
view With AIelandrinc.

Washington, July %. The letter re-
ceived by Senator Pettigrew from one OF
Aguinaldo's generals, J. AleJandrino, con-
tanning an alleged account of an interview
between himself and Admiral Dewey on
board the Olympia in the bay of Hong
Kong, April, 1898, in which it is stated
Admiral Dewey promised independence
to the Filipinos, was shown to the admir-
al today by an Associated Press reporter.
The admiral characterized it as a Tissue
of falsehoods." He declared it absurd
on its face.
81 not only had no power to promise
independence to the Fiipinos," said he,
"but the whole tenor of the words put
in my mouth stamps them as false. am
made to say things l never thought OF
and which l could never have uttered.
You will notice that an addressed IN
the alleged interview as admiral when
at the time / was commodore.
The admiral said be had never heard OF
Aleiandrino. Several Filipinos, after
much importuning, did come aboard the
Olympia at Hong Kong. They were
anxious to be taken to Manila.
II considered that their representations
we're of little importance" said the ad-
miral, "and l did not take them to Ma
Mia. Later, gave permission to Aguin.
aldo and about dozen others to come to
Manila. All that they we're anxious
about at that time was an end of the ty-
ranny of Spain, against which they had
been fighting. After the destruction Of
Montiio's feet. the city virtually surren-
dered, and l am satisfied if we had had
5000 troops there at that time we could
have gone ashore and been received by
the Fiipinos as deliverers. They had abb
solutely no thought then of independence.
That was an after thought of their leaders
during the interim between the smash
ing of the Spanish feet and the arrival OF
the United States troops"
Speaking of the report that Cuba was
to be evacuated by the administration
troops after the holding Of the constitu
sional convention, Admiral Dewey said
he did not see how the United States
could turn over the island to the Cuhan'
until a stable government bad been es
tablished.
"We are responsible to the world fol
the orderly conduct of affairs in Cuba,
said he, "and until such government ii
established, l cannot see how we car
withdraw. We are confronted with
similar situation in the Philippines. Th'
world looks to us, and no matter which
political party wins in November, tn
United States cannot relinquish the is
lands until responsible and stable gov
ernment is set up there"

THE PRESIDENTS REPLY.

This cablegram was at once communi'
cate to the President at Canton and the
following is his reply
"The President of the United States to
the Emperor of na,-Greeting:
81 have received Your Maiesty's mes
sage of the 10th of July and am glad to
know Your Majesty recognizes the fact
that the government and people of the
United States desire of China nothing but
what is just and equitable. The purpose
for which we landed troops in China was
the rescue of our legation from grave dan
ger and the protection Of the lives and
property of Americans who were sojourn'
ing in China in the employment of rights
guaranteed them by treaty and by inter-
national law. The same purposes are
publicly declared by all the powers who
have landed military forces in Your
Msjesty's empire.
81 am to infer from Your Majesty's
letter that malefactors who have disturbed
the peace of China, who have murdered
the minister of Germany and member Of
the Japanese legation, and who hold be-
sieged in Pekin those foreign diplOmatists
who still survive, have not only not re-
ceiyed any favor or encouragement from
Your Majesty, but are actually in rebel
| Ion against the imperial authority. Ii
this be the case, most solemly urge on
Your Msjesty's government to give pub
lie assurance whether the foreign ministers
are alive, and if 90, in what condition.
'To put the diplomatic Representatives
of The powers to immediate and free com
munication with their respective govern
ments. and to remove all danger to thei
lives and property.
ITO place the imperial authority o
China In communication with the relic
expedition, 80 that cooperation may b.
secured between them for the Liberation
of the legations. the protection Of foreign
ers and restoration of order.
"After these objects are accomplished
it is the belief OF this government that nj
obstacles will be found to exist on th
part of the powers to an amicable settle
ment of all questions arising out of the re
cent troubles, and the friendly good office
T of this government will, with the assent Q
the other powers, be cheerfully placed 9
Your Msjesty's disposition for that pun
pose.
