'PocAHoNTAS' DESCENDANTS.
The Famous Boiling FanaiIy-Deaf and
Blind Exhibit.

Blind Exhibit.
Among the many interesting exhib-
its in Social Economy hall at the
jamestown exposition is the group Of
historical pictures from the Virginia
school for the deaf and blind at Staun-
ton, Va. The group includes the like
nesses Of the members of the famous
Boiling family and represents the first
attempt in America at educating the
deaf. There are pictures OF John and
Thomas Boiling, Jr., sixth in direct
line of descent from Pocahontas. the
daughter of Powhatan. Both were
deaf and were sent by their father,
Major Thomas Boiling, in 1775, 10 the
Braidwood school at Edinburgh, Scot
land. Of the latter the Richmond En-
quirer of Feb. IS, 1886, In an obituary
notice. says Of Thomas Boiling, Jr:
Placed at an early age under the tu-
ition Of the celebrated Braidwood of
Edinburgh, his naturally fine under
standing was rapidly developed. He
read with pleasure, composed and
wrote in a peculiar yet clear and
graphic style Polished and graceful!
In manner, be was the admiration
and wonder of strangers and the de-
light Of an extensive connection and
friends"
His hearing brother, Colonel William
Boiling, in a letter dated Dec 10,
1871, thus alludes to his brothers
speech: Thomas requirements were
most extraordinary His articulation
was so perfect that his family, his
friends and the servants understood

a visit to the Tercentennial exposi-
ton on Hampton Roads during Octo-
Der is an ideal trip, especially so if one
includes In the itinerary a tour of the
historic section which surrounds the
great fair The hot days-and there
have been very few really hot days at
the exposition-have been succeeded
by that perfect weather of early fall.
The salt air adds life and vigor with
every breath, and this alone is suffl-
Gent excuse for journey to this gar
den spot of nature, augmented by the
architectural handiwork of man.
The exposition commentaries a great
historical event, and it must be noted
that particular attention has been paid
TO that feature of the celebration. His
toric relics, heirlooms of colonial life,
precious documents from archives Of
family, state and nation. reproductions
of famous halls and homes, all show
forth the intent and purpose of the
event. Even the architecture is har-
monious with the general plan, and the
amusement attractions of the War
Path take up the historical refrain
with such productions as the midnight
ride of Paul Revere. the battle be-
tween the Merrimac and Monitor and
many others of similar nature.

aloud as well as they could any per-
son, and he possessed the faculty Of
modulating his voice from low whis-
per to loud call"
Another picture Is that Of Colonel
William, who had two children who were
deaf, and he employed a Mr.. Braid
wood, grandson of the founder of the
Edenburg school, to come to America
to instruct the two children at Boil
ing hall, Goochland county, Va. This
was in 1912. and these two children Of
William Boiling were the first deaf per-
sons to be educated in America.

First Demonstration of It's
Kind in China's History
New Epoch.
MERCHANTS TO SHOW ANITY
Members of Boycott Guild Foremost
in Tokens of Friendships to
the Visitor.

Shanghai, oct. S.-Chinese and for
eign residents OF Shanghai united in
a demonstrative welcome TO Secretary
Of War Taft on his arrival here today
that exceeded any reception ever ex-
tended 10 a foreign statesman.
After defeating the new y. NJ. c. A.
building Mr.. Taft this afternoon was
the guest at an elaborate reception ar
ranged by Chinese merchants and was
presented with silver punch bowl
Most OF these merchants were In the
guild organized to boycott American
manufacturers. The reception there
foremarked a great change in the SEN
timent OF the Chinese.
Visit Marks New Epoch.
This reception marked an epoch in
the matter OF the status of women in
China, for today Chinese women OF
aristocratic families were present at
the reception, and even presided at re-
freshment tables. This is the first
time such a thing has happened in
China. This Chinese welcome to the
American visitor was most significant
and the merchants and high officials
present contrasted 1t with Mr.. Tafts
former visit to Shanghai and the days
of the American boycott.
Tonight Mr.. Taft was guest of honor
at banquet given by American resi-
dents, the largest affair of its kind
ever held In Shanghai. At this ban
quet the secretary delivered a mes
sage from America to China.
China has no territory we DESIRE"
he said, and she can have no pros
perity that we will begrudge, nor will
we resent any degree Of political power
or independence to which as an en-
pire she is justly exercised"
China Must Keep Open Door.
Elsewhere in his speech at this ban
quet Secretary Taft said:
1--WE do not complain of loss of trade
that results from the employment OF
greater enterprises, or attention to the
demands OF the Chinese market or the
greater business acumen shown by
competitors, but we would have the
right to protest at being excluded
from the trade of China by reason OF
our insistence upon the policy Of the open
door, The acquiesence in this policy
of all the nations, Interested has been
so unhesitating and emphatic that 1t
Is hardly worth while to speculate
upon the probable action OF the United
States in case the interests of Ameri-
ardy and how far >the United States
would go in the protection of its Chi
nese trade I cannot say"

boRsE SENATOR.
National Administration Is Praised
and Convention Adheres to "Stand-
Pat" Policy on Tariff.

Harrisburg, Pa, June 1.-THE in.
dorsement of Senator Knox for presi-
dent, the nomination Of John o. Sheath
OF Philadelphia for state treasurer, and
the adoption of a platform indorsing
the policies and administration of
President Roosevelt were the net re-
suit of Thursdays Republican conven.
ton. The platform also commends
the course of the Fifty-ninth congress,
Endorses the action of Senators Pen
rose and Knox and the Pennsylvania
delegation, particularly in upholding
the hands of President Roosevelt; de-
clares adherence to the principle Of
protection to American labor, Amer
lean industries and American prod
ucts; commends the administration Of
Gov. Stuart; indorses the work of the
recent legislature and demands speedy
prosecution of those who profited by
the alleged frauds in furnishing and
equipping the new state capitol.
Senator Knox remained away from
Harrisburg during the convention,
leaving his interests in charge of his
colleague, Senator Pencose. Mr.. Pen
rose probably will head the Pennsyl-
vania delegation to the next Republic
an national convention. Gov. Stuart
will also be member Of the dele
cation.
Mr.. Sheatz's nomination was the re-
suit of conference between Senator
Penrose and his lieutenants. The SEN
ator's original purpose was to support
ex-State Senator Harry H. Cummings
of Tidioute, but many Of his lieuten-
ants suggested that Sheath would be a
stronger candidate and he finally
agreed with them. Mr.. Sheath is serv-
ing his third term lin the legislature,
and was chairman of the house appro-
priations committee in the recent SEES
sion.
