CHINA WAR NEWS.

Commissioner Rockhill, in n COM
munication from Pekin, says that the
sum total of the indemnities claimed
by all nations cannot be calculated at
this moment, but assuming that the
other powers are willing to accept the
scheme of adjustment proposed by the
United States, allowing a certain
amount for each missionary killed or
injured, and another allowance for
property destroyed. the sum total of
the claim would be considerably less
than $3.50, OOO,O
The British headquarters at Pekin
on the ed report the withdrawal of
both Russian and British troops from
the disputed territory at Tien Tsin.
NJ. De Giers, the Russian minister to
China. believes that everything will be
amicably adjusted at London and st.
Petersburg and doubts the possibility
of further trouble in the matter.
A dispatch from Tien Tsin says Gen.
Bailloud (French) and Gen. Lorne-
Campbell (British) dined together on
March -. The offending French SOL
diers at Tien Tsin have been punished
and assurances have been given that
the offensive conduct of the French
troops will not occur again.
Gen. Voyron, commander of the
French troops, has ordered the new
regiment to Tien Tsin to replace the
one now there. French officers at that
place think it was n mistake to leave a
regiment recruited in city at Tien
Tsin. The regiment was composed of
"a tough Paris element.
The Russians, besides withdrawing
their guards from the railroad prop
erty, have removed the demarcation
flags, which fixed the boundaries of
the concession and before which the
sentries were stationed.
a dispatch to the Havas agency from
Pekin says that NJ. Pichon. French
minister to China, will leave Pekin the
fore part of April. He will bc sue

"KEEPINo FAMILY TOGETHER"
Circular Letters sent to Headquarters
Perpetnatas Record.


Psrpotuatss Record.
A novel idea has been originated by
the widely scattered 0hioan Riggs
family in order that its members may
keep in touch with each other. A
branch OF the family originated at
Portsmouth, O., &c years ago, when
Joseph Riggs and his newly married
wife settled there. Their ten children
grew to manhood and womanhood and
the rapidly increasing circle OF cous-
ins made anything more than sporadic
correspondence impossible. The Riggs
family letter was devised to meet this
demand and every six days a bulky
envelope arrives at Portsmouth, o.,
where a single representative OF the
family still lives. The Riggs family
has left its mark upon Ohio, and has
the proud distinction of being without
a single black sheep. The family had
a reunion in Portsmouth about ten
years ago. Long before that time
they had adopted the scheme Of
family letter" for keeping In touch
with each other. The circuit of this
letter originally included the first, sec
ond and third generations of the de-
scendants OF Joseph Riggs, and as
younger ones grow up or are married
they are taken into the circuit. When
the first letter was written the one
writing it simply indited the news OF
his own household and whatever might
be OF interest to the relatives at large
and sent it to the relatives living in
the town nearest him. This person
read the letter, then wrote one himself
Cor HERSELF, placed it in the envelope
with the other and sent 1t to the next
one on the circuit, who repeated the
operation, and so it went, each one
adding letter addressed to the family
in general till it got around to the one
who started it. BY this time it was
a pretty big package. The original
sender then takes out his own old let
ter and puts in a new one. The circuit
is a long one, including Boston, New
York. Pittsburg, Cleveland, Cincinnati,
Chicago, Florida, California and scores
Of other places and states-so many
that it takes just two months for the
letter to complete the circuit. For sew
eral years the circuit included Rome,
