The only reverses he encountered
were in two successive attempts 10

were commanded by an Englishman

Ward was wounded in the jaw.
Brought to trial by the foreign consuls
of Shanghai for violating the neutral
lty laws of his country, he escaped by
swearing that he was no longer an
American citizen, but Chinese sub
ject. He met a hero's death in a pitch
ed battle near Ning-Po. Shot in the
stomach while leading a charge, he re-
fused to leave the field, but remained,
like Wolfe, to urge his men on to vic

Great Greed for Lands.

1t is said that the flag follows the
trade, but in the Russian case it is the
trade which follows the flag. Russia
mas never made. movement from
which she has gone back; her great
land-grabber and her great Cecil
Rhodes was called Yamak, and he pen
etrated and annexed the great part OF
Siberia for the car of the day, and
Russia within the last few months has
ehristened her most powerful ironclad
after this great explorer.
The counts of Mourayieff, uncles OF
the late minister of foreign affairs tc
the present czar, are known in history
one as the man who annexed the great,
er part of the Caucasus for the czar OF
his day, and the other completed the 81
berian annexation; and their successor
the late Count Mouravieff, was follow
ing in the footsteps of his ancestors.
The Russian minister of foreign az
fairs acts independently, sometimef
without consulting any of his col-
leagues, and very often without con-
sulting the czar. He always employs
men who have been trained in the de-
velopment of the Russian empire, at
the expense of other people.-LondoI

one-half acres Of ground and is 165x40O

In order to provide greater isolation
for the hospital and furnish basin for
the anchorage of the steamers used in
transporting the immigrants, a new
island, about three acres in extent, has
been made southwest of the main ISL
and and parallel to 1t. The two are
connected on the Jersey City side by a
crib. The hospital is being built on
the Jersey City end Of this new rect
angle of land. The physicians house is
to stand on the southwestern extrem-

grave of Edward I. Ward. who Gre
ated the ever victorious army to which
Gordon afterward owed his fame.
Ward. the Yankee soldier of fortune
was the only foreigner ever deified in
China. He won this sacred regard bv
his military genius, for to him more
than to any other individual was due
the crushing of the Tapping rebellion
that bloody convulslon which for
years devastated the richest provinces
of China and cost millions of lives.
He was born in Salem, Mass. in 1928
and from boyhood sought desperate adj
ventures. Baked of West Point edu-
cation, he went to sea. AT the ont
break of the Crimean war he Joined
the French army, but after his arrival
at the front he had a quarrel with his
superior officer and was allowed to re-
sign. After taking part in Walkers
tilibustering expedition against Mica
ragua he shipped as sailor on a vessel
bound for China.
He reached Shanghai In 1859. The
city was in panic. Chung Wang. the
greatest of the Tapping generals, had
reached Sung Kaing. eighteen miles
away. The foreign powers were do
ing nothing. In despair the merchants
of Shanghai proclaimed a reward of
100000 to any body of foreigners who
would drive the Taepings from Sung
Kiang.
Ward presented himself to the chief
merchant and entered into a contract
by which he was to receive the entire
reward if he should raise a force and
capture Sung -Kiang. He gathered un-
der his standard 100 European aud
American sailors and in the face of
great difficulties marched ON the enc
my. In pitched battle before the
walls of Sung Kiang he drove back
S.000 Taepings, but retreated when an
other force attacked his flank.

ACTRESS SELLS NEWSPAPERS.

Pauline Schroeder Has a Stand at
Theater Where She Once Played,
Pauline Schroeder, who was until
three seasons ago a successful actress,
is now selling papers before the New
York theater in which she once won
applause. Miss Schroeder is a California
woman, and went on the stage when
she was child. The name of the first
play in which she had a part was "The
Streets Of New York." with which she
was later to make such close acquaint-
ance. In the height Of her career she
was married, but soon left her hus.
band. She went to live with her invalid
mother in little fat in New York.
The actress was still young, but she
gave promise of making worthy name
for herself in her profession, but an
acidcent happened that made her a
cripple for life. One morning Miss
Schroeder started on her wheel to get
some medicine for her mother. A trolley
car knocked her down, dragged her the
length of a block, and left her manned.
and desperately injured. For weeks she
lay in the hospital, persistently refus-
ing to consent to the amputation of her
leg. which had been badly crushed.
Then, for fear they would amputate it
