Fighting MlssOurian Will Command.

Captain Joseph Frazier, a Mis-
sourian who won the title Of "F1ghting
Joe' by %gallantry under fire during
the Boxer Uprising in China, has been
detailed by the war department as
c%ommandant of cadets of the University
of Missouri.
Dusk was falling upon the fighting
lines before Tien Tsin. The tired
American troops lay neck deep in the
water firing at an unseen foe behind
the great walls that surround the CITY.
The shrapnel from the dark caverns
Kissed like demons and then plowed
down through the water into the
bodies OF our men. The oolors fell
Colonel Liscum, who was 10 command,
sprapg upon the bank, seized the flag,
and then, bit by a Chinese bullet
himself, went down. Without a
moments hesitation, though it meant
almost certain death, Captain Frazier
jumped from the ditch, ran to the side
Of the dying man, raised his head and
gave him water from his canteen.
Then calling three of the men, he and
they carried their fallen comrade to
shelter, and dressed his wounds.
For his gallant action, Captain
Frazier was recommended for the
highest reward this world promises
the true soldier, the medal OF honor of
the United States of America.

New York, Aug. 19.-And still they
come! notwithstanding the fact that
the European governments do not ia
vor emigration and are trying their
best to make it as difficult as possible
and in spite of the fact that the Amer
lean authorities keep a sharp lookout
TO prevent undesirable foreigners to
slip into the country, the immigration
is increasing at an enormous rate. The
number Of immigrants during the fiscal
yaar which ended June 80, was 1921
421, an increase Of 25 per cent over
last year and 90 per cent more than in
1903. The ratio Of exclusion was some
what heigher, being 1858 against
$3.50 in 1903 The greatest increase
was in the number Of immigrants from
Russia. This is owing partly to the
war with Japan, the inner disturbances
in Russia and the constant persecution
Of the Jews in many parts of the en-
pire. The class Of immigrants coming
from Russia is not very desirable, but
more 50 than a large per centage of the
immigrants coming from certain parts
of Austria and Italy.
