Miss Helen Blum.

Miss Helen Blum, the 13-year-old
daughter of Capt. and Mrs. Henry
Blum, died yesterday afternoon at 2
o'clock at the home of her parents,
No. IA Oglethorpe avenue, east. The
end came after four weeks Of suffer-
ing.
Four weeks ago the little girl be-
came so i'll that she was compelled to
go to bed. Prior to that time she had
not been well, but she bore up against
the malady that was threatening.
Physicians were called in after she
had been abed for day or two That
her condition gave occasion for alarm
they recognized speedily. and two
days later they pronounced the case
one of typhoid fever.
The disease developed rapidly, be-
coming most virulent and malignant.
The temperature rose, and for an en-
tire week it was 104 degrees. The ply
sicians informed the family that there
was little hope for the childs recov-
cry, but they continued their efforts
to save her. The fever could not be
controlled, however, and it resisted
their utmost endeavors and their best
remedies. The temperature continued
to rise, and twice it was registered at
107 80. Such ravages as it wrought
could not be withstood, and, to the
deep grief of loving relatives and the
regret of their many friends, the end
came.
Some days ago Mrs. H. c. Miner and
Miss Catherine Blur. sisters of Miss
Helen, were summoned from New York
because of the little girls critical ILL
ness. Mrs. Miner resides in that city,
and Miss Catherine was there at school.
They and the other immediate rela-
tives We're at the beside to the last.
Miss Helen was a bright, lovable
child. She was a pupil of the Academy
of St. Vincent de Paul. Many hearts
will be made sad by news of her death

ternoon at O'Clock from the family

yer.
Pekin, June 14.-In continuation of
its policy of leniency towards China,
the United States is taking the position
that an equitable construction of the
peace protocol would be that China
should pay 450.OOO,0O0 taels. equivalent
to a gold debt, at the rates set forth
in the protocol, regardless of f1uctua-
tions of silver. All the foreign min
listers at the last meeting expressed
an opposite view, and it is doubtful
if any power will support the American
contention, though China's proposal to
levy the customs duties on a gold basis
is gaining strength. 1t is argued
that 1t is a hardship to make the de-
probation in the price of silver operate
against China, both in the payment
of indemnity and in the collection of
revenue
