The Boxers caught him and had he
kept still he might have escaped, but
he preached to them about Christianity
until they cut him in pieces.
what shall we say of the Catholics
in their missionary work? OF the two
brave men who climbed into the belfry
of the Portuguese church to toll the
bell as a warning that the Boxers We're
coming? They knew there was no pos
sible chance for their escape If they
continued their self appointed task, but
they rang the bell frantically until the
fires lit by the enemy eat into the
narrow platform and they were hurled
into the roaring flames below.
THE cooks in one of the missionary
families was caught and told that IL
he would recant lie might escape, but
he made them put on his best clothes
that he might die as befitted his lofty
calling as devout follower of Jesus.
No wonder they dug out his heart TO
find the secret therein"
WAS NO LooTING.
In speaking of the alleged looting by
missionaries, Miss Newton told an in
cident of the way in which native
came to Il missionary and besought him
to keep two costly vases until the
siege was over, as they might there
be safe A New York reporter who was
taken into the missionary's home more
as Il deed of charity because he could
not be comfortable elsewhere saw the
vases in the room he occupied and
straightway sent off startling story
about the cupidity of missionaries.
With regard to the political aspects
of affairs Miss Newton said that not
much can be hoped for from the Dow
ager Empress but it is more than prob
able that the emperor is a Christian.
A nephew OF the Dowager Empress
with his wife Is hoping for royal con-

couragement.

MEETING OF CITY COMMITTEE.
Matters in Connection with the Cam
paign Will Be Considered.

Tonight the Republican city commit
tee will meet in the Central Republican
club rooms and consider matters per-
tanning to the city campaign. The cleo
tion VIII he held one week from next
Tuesday, and the active work of the
campaign is now beginning. An active,
Woodworking committee has been
formed, with the following officers:
Chairman, c. T.. Chittenden; treasurer,
T. III. Dale; secretary, George Marshall.
Headquarters have been opened in the
Central Republican club rooms. which
are In charge of Mr.. Marshall.
Evan II. Norris the candidate for
controller, when seen yesterday by 81
Tribune man, said he has made cam
vas of almost the entire city and from
the indications that he has observed,
believes he will be elected.
Chairman Chittenden is of the same
opinion. The only danger, as he views
1t, is Republican apathy in the wards
where there is no opposition to the
ward candidate and where. in conse-
quence, the voters may be inclined to
stay away from the polls.

A TRIP TO NORWAY.
A Delightful Lecture Delivered at
the High School by F. G.
Partington Last Night.

Usually travel lecturers are prosy,
dull and uninteresting. Not so, how
ever, was the lecture delivered in the
high school auditorium last night by
+. G.. Partington who took "a large
audience on an imaginary trip through
the fjords of Norway and along the
coast Of that country to the north
cape, the most northerly part of Europe
and the point where the sun may be
seen shining in all it's splendor at mid
night.
Mr. Partngton made the trip above
mentioned some years ago and secured
a series of photographs remarkable for
their variety and clearness. These
We're thrown on a screen last night
and their showing was accompanied
with a delightful running lecture which
revealed Mr.. Partington as a most OBJ
servant traveller with an eye for the
picturesque.
The views showed scenes taken from
steamer which sails through the
fjords and revealed the wonderful
beauties of these waterways which run
from the ocean between towering walls
of rock into the very heart of the coun-
try. Mr.. Partington told of the Nor
way glaciers compared to which the
Swiss glaciers are as snowballs, to use
his words, and referred to the homely
virtues of the country people who re-
tain the customs, and in many in
stances, the dress of ages now long
past.
His description of the way in which
they hoard each blade Of grass that
appears and of their climbs up noun
tain Businesses to secure scant supplys
of grass for fodder was very pathetic.
THE Norwegian peasant" said he,
has implicit trust in human nature.
If you accept the hospitality of his bed
and board he let's you name your own
price and prefers to let you leave the
money on the table for him instead of
giving it to him personally"
In referring to the trip to the north
cape, he said that all other trips are as
nothing compared to it and that it
hath not entered into the mind of the
man who has not been there to con-
ceive of the glorious majesty of the
scenery and of the solemn mystery that
surrounds the journey through desolate
solitudes of rocky peaks to the rocky
promontory which throws it's rugged
front far out into the artic ocean.
During the larger part of the jour-
ney, he said, there is perpetual day and
the light is almost as strong at mid
night as at noon. The steamer threads
is way through channels and fjords and
the sea until at last the cape is
reached and the glories of an artic
sun at midnight are revealed The
view taken shortly before midnight
showing the sun shining through rift
in the clouds and all around an atmos-
pheer of indefinible gloom, was Won
drously beautiful.
ITO one who has travelled in Nor
way" said Mr.. Partington, "it is no
wonder that those majestic rocks and
vast solitudes have evolved the most
terrible and powerful of all mytholo-
gies."

of "Under Southern Skies"

Here with His Wife Who Is the Star
of "Under Southern Skies"
\ plain and unpretentiouslydr dressed
Young man, with a keen eye and face
that denotes shrewdness and daring,
watched the production of "Under
Southern Skies" at the Lyceum last
night. He was William A. Brady, the
owner of the show and the husband of
the beautiful young woman who is the
star of the company. She is known
to the theatrical world as Miss Grace
George.
Immensely proud is Mr.. Brady of his
talented wife and he watched her work
last night with as much pleasure as
he did the first theatrical performance
he ever saw. Nlr. Brady does not
travel constantly with the company, he
is far too busy man for that, but he
has been with the company all this
week, because it has been having all
kinds of hard knocks from the weather
up in York state. To keep one engage
ment Brady and his wife had to travel
n long distance in the cab of an en-
Sine, the passenger train in which they
began journey to join the company
having been abandoned on account of
the heavy snow.

The steamers are now in splendid

OF his time and attention to their re-
pair. They're capable of pumping just
as many gallons per minute as they
were guaranteed to pump when pur-
chased, and there will be no more
