PARIS. July 2S.-Yu Keng, the Chinese
minister here. says he is convinced the
legations in Pekin are safe and sound,
although some buildings may have beesl
destroyed.
! While this conviction is not shared by
the off1ciaI and political world here, dis
patches received frcm the far East during
the past week have raised renewed -.ope
that some, if not all of the members of
Elthel Legations are still alive. Minister
Yu I<eng thinks the silence of the min
isters at Pekin is not SO omirous as it
is considered abroad.
VI KENG HOPEFUL
Happily for my country and the for
eigners, !" he saiQ, ''Yung Lu and Prince
Ching are, l believe, now in power, and
this leaves me hopeful"
The Associated Press learns that the
foreign governments intend to disregard
Ii Hung Changes recommendations
which they believe are made in bad faith,
not to march on Pekin. On the contrary,
the international expedition Will start
about the middle of next week, follow
ing as closely as possible the railroad
MUST STAND TOGETHER.
The ambassador of one of the great
powers, allHding to the jealousies which
have already become perceptible, said:
The moment is a critical one for the
white race in the far East. To win they
must stand together. Japan at the pres-
ent moment is apparently with the west
ern powers, but it must be remembered
that 2lthpnOb
Chinese-Japanese war, and by reason of
!! her acquired civilization, looks down upon
the Chinese, still their many race al
tinities, and other ties between the two
nations, with Japan's ambition, may lead

of the yellow race which would be
fraught with peril to the Western void"

A STRONG STATEMENT.

Their Case Made out,

Their Case Made Out.
FRANKFORT KY, July 2S-The pres
ecution, through T. G. Campbell, gave
out the following statement tonight after
resting its case:
1T is proven that the shot came from
the Office of the defendant, Caleb Pow
ers.
First by direct testimony of two wit
nesses who saw the rifle when fired, and
by eight others who located the place of
firing by the sound.
THE BULLETS COURSE.
Second, by the following facts: The
window sill from whence the bullet was
fired is thirteen feet nine inches higher
than the point where it struck into the
tree, distance. 19T feet The descent of
the bullet was such that it would cross
the-spet where Goebel fell, fifty-one and
one-quarter inches above The pavement.
The autopsy found the point of entrance
in Goebers breast fifty-two and one-quar-
ter inches from the soIes- of his feet add
the elevation gained by the socks and
shoes you get fifty-three- and ene-six-
teenth. inches.
Third the cartridge which was used
in killing Goebel was metal, jacketed
loosely, called steel smokeless cartridges,
a kind not used by the militia of Ken

Mr.. Hill came back from Kansas CITY

of harmony was wholly the fault OF
the Tammany man. He is angry through

friends that the fight between himself
and Mr.. Croker. win wax even hotter at
the state convention six weeks from now.
Hill says Croker Inundated him at Kan
sas City, and alone stood In the way Of a
moderate platform, the elimin alton of free
silver and harmony In the New Ncrjt
state delegation. He charges CROKER
with determined attempt to put hum on
the ticket in the effort To transport him
to oblivion, imputing that Mr.. Croker Is
not sincere In his support o Bryan and
silver.
For that matter, politicians here charge
both Mr.. Hill and Mr.. Croker with having
an abiding desire to see pne ticket named
at Kansas City defeated. Mr.. Hill would
be glad. these men say, pecalse MS ad-
vice and counsel We're ignored; Mr.. t'rC-

SELLING BY CANDLE.
a Quaint Old-Time Custom Which
Still Prevails in Wales.


The custom of selling by candle" an
ancient ceremony, still prevails in several
towns in England, notably at Aldermaston.
1t is letting land, not selling, however,
and the property is a piece of meadow,
the church acre" which was bequeaihed
some centuries ago to the church. The
custom of ceremony 5 as follows: y
candle is lighted, and one inch below the
flame is duly measured Oft. at which
point pin is inserted The bidding then
commences, and continues until the inch
of candle is consumed and the pin drops
out. To the one who is bidding as the
PIN drops out the land belongs. Every
three years this ceremony is performed.
At Chedzoy the church acre is let every
twcnty-One years by this means. and at
Tatw0rth a sale by lighted candle takes
place every year. At Warrior the graz
ing rights upon the roadside have been
annually let by the same means, a Gus
tom which has been observed since the
time OF George III. The one who pre-
sides al the auction produces the old book
containing the record of the annual let
tings since 1919. An ordinary candle is
then cut into five equal portions, about
one-half inch long, one for each lot. At
the last auction, attention was drawn to
the fact that the sporting rights over an
old gravepIt were included in lot No. !,
but unfortunately there were no fish in
the pond. Get on, gentlemen. please;

Philip Penrose's mind that night as he

grim, determined look on his face. Into
the letter that was to plead for the honor
and happiness of the two beings he loved
best on earth he threw all the eloquence
and passion Of which he was capable.
With what magical power he wrote may
be judged by the reply:
