WILL HOLD OUT.

WILL HOLD OUT.
There is now good reason to believe
that the ministers will be able to hold
out until relieving force reaches them.
If they have been able to stand the
siege for almost a month after the out
side world had given up hope. there
seems no reason to fear that they will
not be able to hold out a little longer"
do you regard the fact that the mes
sage is in the state department code as
conclusive evidence that it emanated
from Minister Conger?'' he was asked

sacred the people in the American lega-
ton, the code fell into the hands of the

REMOTE POSSIBILITY.
II regard such a suggestion as dealing
with a possibility too remote to be Sc
riously considered" replied the secretary.
II am of the opinion that outsiders could
not have made use or our code, and be-
sides the nature of the reply. with its
strong appeal for immediate relief is
such as would not have been sent by any
one seeking to conceal catastrophe to
the foreigners in Pekin."
Does this message I'm any way change
the situation or the policy of our gov
ernment?"
II do not see that It does, or will re-
suit In change OF policy. The allies are
organizing a column for the relief of the
foreigners at Pekin and now that Il Is
known that they are alive. the news can
only result in pressing forward the col
umn at the earliest possible moment.

DRESS AS WELL AS YOU CAN.
1t Ia Ones Duty to Present Pleas
ing Appearance.


This story is told In Denver Of man
who was once a leading merchant
there. In the early Gays Of the city
be walked it's streets, out Of work and
money. He was poorly clad, but neat
and clean. He sought employment
from a prosperous grocer and said be
was willing to do anything. The mer-
chant at length sent him into his cell
lar to clean out a room so foully dirty
that many a common laborer had re-
fused to enter it. When the young
man appeared in the evening, he was
as neat in his appearance as he had
been In the morning. or course the
merchant thought he had done little or
nothing. But when be saw the cellar,
clean and fresh, he said to the young
man:
you've not only shown that you are
willing to work, but also that you have
some respect for yourself. | guess I'll
give you job"
This young man. who In few years
became the head Of the selfsame busi-
ness, realized the important fact that
the worker is often scrutinized as close
ly as his work.
1t is a mans duty toward his fellow
man to dress as we'll as he can afford
to. Nowhere in nature does the poorly
dressed man find any excuse for bis

WHY HE LIKES MUSIC.
A Physician Whose Reputation AZ a
Critic Was Blasted.

Critic Was Blasted.
There's a physician in Baltimore who
adores music His taste. to be sure,
runs rather to "Old Black Joe" "Su-
wannee River" and such classics. but
still any sort of music will do. and he
listens to 1t all ecstatically and with a
properly intelligent look on his face.
1t was therefore believed that he had
a fine taste for harmony, and his repu-
tation as a critic was established and
grew apace as regulations will. good or
bad.
The other evening as his daughter
approached the house in which rhis
physician lived she heard the strains
Of Home. Sweet Home" proceeding
from the library.
''Father's at it again." she said to
herself softly. Il wonder who he has
coerced into playing for him now!"
A glance disclosed the fact that he
had bribcd three street musicians. two
violinists and harpist into giving
him n private recital. They finished
the air just rs the young woman enter
ed. and the physician turned to her
with beamng face. That Nearer,
My God. to Me- is beautiful thing,
isn't it?" he asked.
1t was the first time he had commit
ted himself Oh the subject Of tunes
and his glory began to diminish from
that moment. for his daughter told the
incident as what she considered al cx-
cellent joke.
Now the worthy man says that he
likes music solely as an incentive to
thought and listens to it when he wish
es to solve some knotty problem Of ar
terry or bones. just as those who suffer
from insomnia go to church and listen
