officer in China recently saved the
foreign residents in the province OF
Quong Tung, on the east bank Of the
Canton river, from falling victims to
a plot, which, while directed primarily
against the Manchurian dynasty. inc

OF the English gunboats Sandpiper

Avalanche and the German tug Sha-

on a scale far larger than is admitted,
either by foreign representatives or
the Chinese government, has been
planned by the rebels.

prepared TO defend the foreign resi-
dents. An armed force Of 5000 men
had entered Canton surreptitiously
several days before the news and were
hiding with sympathizers. AS most
of the foreigners and official represen-
tatives Of the nations reside in Sha-
meen, Commander Drake first COM
pleted his plan of defense, and then.
to allay the excitement which prevail
ed, he officially informed the consul
ates and Chinese officials Of his prepa-
rations and advised the commanders
of the English, German and French
gunboats of the line of action to be
pursued in case Shameen island WAS
attacked. The foreign commanders Of

After Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving over, you be-
gin to plan for Christmas.
The Holiday season comes on
apace, much faster than we
realize because we are accus-
toned to think of Christmas
as a synonym for hardness.
Again, we say that Christmas
comes but once a year and SO
we are apt to procrastinate.
We should begin on New
Years. Day to get ready for
Christmas. If you have not
already begun you will GER
tainly begin now. You want
to give something to each of
your friends; some gentle re-
minder of affection or token
of regard and esteem. tits
difficult task and often
delicate task to select a pres
ent which shall be both ap-
propriate and acceptable and
the trouble IS multiplied by
the number of friends you
have. OF course you do not
want to give each of them the
same thing. You may give
to some one something prac-
ticable, like a sack of flour.
That would be charitable.
To a relative you might give
a pair Of warm mittens.
That's comfortable. To a
lover or friend you can give
some article of use or person
al adornment like a yard of
ribbon, a nice tie or a lace
collar. That's just plain
| Christmas. Now, the fore
going remarks of ours are only
suggestive. Let US tell you
