Evidently no effort has been spared
to make The Ladies' Home Journal for
August a positive boon to its readers
during these warm midsummer days.
It's light, readable articles, bright stor-
les, clever poems, charming music, and
numerous beautiful illustrations afford
the easiest and pleasantest kind Of en-
tertainment for leisure hours. En-
chanting views Of the lovely scenery in
the Engadine Valley and among the
Swiss and Italian lakes, as well as such
delightful articles as 'The Singing Viii
lage of Germany" and what Girl-Life
in Italy Means" allure the thoughts
to foreign lands, while there are time
ly suggestions about "The Picnic Bas-
ket," Keeping House Cool in the Dog
Days." and Seaside Toys and How to
Make Them" Other thoroughly inter-
esting contributions are "The First

Affairs at Pekin.

Washington, July 30.-Mr. Rockhill
has reported to the state department
that the negotiation in Pekin will close
within two weeks with a signatory
protocol by all of the powers.
The Russian government has signi
fed its intention of not further press.
ing the question at present of the
eventual increase Of the import Gus.
toms duties beyond per cent (the
present figure). 1t is agreed that in
case the revenues Of China are not
sufficient for the payment of interest
and principal the powers are to ex-
mine the revenues and determine
what changes are necessary in order
to supply the deficiency. The imperial
maritime customs are to be included
in this arrangement.
The British minister is satisfied
with this arrangement, and the whole
question of financial measures is
therefore settled. The 100000, 900
taels, constituting the indemnity, are
to be converted into gold at the equiv
alent of the tael value on the LIST of
last April. In case the import duties
are subsequently increased the free
list will have to be abolished, except
for cereals; but it is understood that
compensation will in that case be
asked for, probably the financial par
ticipation of China in even the water
approaches of Shanghai and Tientsin.
All the principal points of the nego-
tiations are now settled, and it is ex.
pected that the results will be sum-
married. in the final protocol within
two weeks. and that all the powers
will become signatories.
In connection with the indemnity
payments question has arisen
whether the United States govern
ment will take its share to be issued
by China in American gold or in
pounds sterling. The disposition of
iis government is to take the bonds
in the form that will be the least in
convenient to the Chinese govern
ment, and in the interest of uniform
ity it is probable that the payments
will be paid in pounds sterling.

Big Fire mt Louisville, Ky.

Louisville, KY, July 2S.-ln a fire
which early this morning destroyed the
property of the Bagley Graham Photo
graphic Supply company Max Belovitch,
a cigarmaker, and Policeman James Pru-
den were burned to death in an effort to
rescue women and children who occupied
rooms above the store. Shortly before
midnight a terrific explosion awakened
everybody in the neighborhood, and
among the first to reach the street in
front of the building, on Jefferson street,
near Fourth, and adjoining the offices Of
the Associated Press, was Max Belovitch,
cigarmaker, living across the street.
Hardly had the first explosion died away
before he had dashed up the stairs in
answer to a wOman's screams. About the
time he reached the second floor he must
have fallen, for when picked up few
moments afterward his right side was
burned to a crisp. Police Officer James
Pruden was found on the third floor suf-
located, and seven fremen were taken
from the ruins. Some OF them will prob
ably die.
1t is rumored that six or seven persons
lost their lives in the building, but this
cannot be verified at this hour. Several
are reported missing, and may be in the
ruins.
The fire spread with such rapidity that
even the fire fighters were nonplussed
When the first crash came there was
nothing but smoke, but in a moment the
place was veritable furnace from tiool
to roof. Loss, about $4,000.

To Succeed Lord Kitchener.

New York, July pa dispatch from
London says:
1t is freely rumored that General Lyt-
tleton will succeed Lord Kitchener as
commander in chief of the British forces
in South Africa. General Kitchener, it
may be assumed, will not be recalled
until the end of the war is at last in
sight, so Lyttleton's task will be passive
and administrative more than belligerent.
General Lyttleton did good work under
General Butler in the early days of the
war, but Forestier-Walker and Methuen
are senior to him. Neither of these men
is, however, likely to be appointed, and
it must be said in favor of the choice OF
Lyttleton that he has distinguished him
self in civil life.

TRADE REPORT.
r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review Of
Trade for last week saws:

r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review Of
Trade for last week says:
A fortnight of the steel strike has
passed without materially altering the
position Of the contestants or adverse
ly affecting the industry as a whole.
Exceptional activity Is noticed at the
mills not affected by the strike and the
movement of structural material for
bridges, buildings and track elevation
is still heavy. Steel bars for agricul
tural implements are firm in price and
freely purchased. Railways seek
freight cars and rails are sold for de-
livery next January. Cotton ties,
sheets and hoops are commanding a
premium. Pig iron is accommodating,
but producers offer no concessions.
New lines of wooden goods for delivery
after October 1 opened at moderate
reductions from last years prices, as
generally expected by the trade. Sup
plies of heavy weight goods have been
reduced to a satisfactory point and the
situation in all branches of the induc-
try is such as to engender confidence.
Raw woolens, however, thus far failed
to reflect the improvement, quotations
remaining unchanged. A few of the
most expensive grades are held above
former figures and the bulk of the new
domestic clip has gone into the hands
of spectators who await profitable
terms. Cotton goods are dull, neither

4 STARTLING STORY
TOLD BY A KANSAS CITY
NEWS AGENT.


Jack Williams, Of No. 4Qf Della.
ware street, says the Kansas City,
Mo-, Journal, is well known as an en-
terprising news agent and q thorough
| ly reliable man. He had been suf-.
ferer from kidney trouble and endured
much pain from it until recently,
when he tried DIR. Williams' Pink
Pills for Pale People and with such
success that within short time he
was entirely and permanently cured.
To reporter he said:
For two years / had pains in the
back constantly, causing me serious
Inconvenience. But did not at
tempt to do anything for my COM
plant until the latter part Of last
winter, when saw an ady Ssnent
of DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People and decided to see what
they would do for me. was relieved
within one week after began taking
them; the pains disappeared and so
complete was the cure that I have
not found it necessary to take further
treatment nor have / been troubled
at all by the disease since"
Kidney complaint is an insiduon
disease. First come almost unnoticed
pains in the back and some slight in
convenience. The pains grow gradu-
ally worse and the Inconvenience
greater till finally, if not given medi-
cal treatment, the person suffers awful
torture and becomes unfit to follow
his ordinary occupation. Blood pois-
oning sets in, the constitution ia
wrecked and death often results.
Mr.. William stock the one unfailing
remedy and was readily cured within
a few weeks. His statement was
sworn to before Lionel Noise, a no
tary public, and the facts above will
bear the most searching investigation.

People will not only effect cure in
