battle which took place early in Septem-
Der at the city of China, China, between
Chinese troops and 100,e00 armed citizens
who We're determined not to pay In
den1rity taxes recently levied. The peo-
pie decided that the new taxation was
too heavy and asked for reductions. The
mandarin declined to comply.
An ultimatum was thereupou sent him
to the effect that if he did not make
the desired reductions the population or
the surrounding country would come out
and storm the city. The mandarin made
great preparations for the defense, fortt-
tying the gates OF the city with planks
and stone and posting all soldiers at his
command On the city walls.
On the date fixed a mob of
90 aeG people approached the city walls
with red flags and armed with weapons
of all kinds. The mob gradually In
creased to nearly 10000 people and be-
Ieaguered the city for two days Many
were killed on both sides, as the man
DARN gave his soldiers orders TO light
desperately and keep the mob at bay as
long as lney could.
Seeing his ease was hopeless the man
DARN finally gave in and reduced the
taxes as the people demanded. MagIs-
trates have been sent from shanghai
and kaichaeuW to Chino TO inquire into
the matter and devise means whereby
that district can raise its fun quota OF
the indemnity tax

We are asked what is the best way
to manage n balky horse. In the first
place, we never owned but two. One
of these we could always cure of his
balky fits by wrapping a piece of plug
tobacco around his bit. When the
weed began to make him feel sick. he
would forget his meanness and get
right down to work all right The 9TH
er we let a horse jockey have. One
thing is sure-it never does any good
to thrash horse for being balky. The
wise man will try to find out the cause.
1t may be too big a load or a tender
shoulder or simple fright. Unnamable
cruelties are practiced upon balky
horses all over the country when the
law of kindness would accomplish
much better results. Sometimes one
gets hold of horse with a naturally
sullen and ugly temper. Not much
can be done with this sort. and the
sooner one gets rid of them the better.
