IN MEmORIAM.

SEYMoUR.-In loving memory of my
dear mother. Jane T. Seymour, who
departed this life fifteen years ago
today. December Is, 1894.
My mother is sleeping
In peace-she is at rest
Her labors are ended,
She is safe with the blest.
In days of suffering
We saw her fast fade
!. From our sight,
but the promise is given -
That we shall meet
In the land of light.
Sleep on. mother. take thy rest.
HOY art safe on Iesuss breast;
thqn mast safely crossed the tide,
Sale With Jesus TO abide.

THE DROUGHT BROKEN.

The protracted drought that has pre-
vailed in many parts of this State was
broken on Monday by heavy rains
which relieved the suffering, especially
IN the Valley region. No rain of con-
sequence had fallen in the neighborhood
OF winchester for about six months,
and the rivers are lower than in many
years In the trucking regions of vir-
ginia thousands of fall plants, cabbages,
etc, persisted from lack of moisture.
Wheat and clover have. been badly
damaged as a result of the lack of rain.

URGES COMMERCIAL
INVASION OF CHINA
Former Minister to Peking Describes
Business Conditions in the Orient.
Sails for ST. Petersburg to
Assume Position

NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-William w.
Rockhill, who sails today to assume
his new duties as ambassador to Rus
sia, declared that America has a re-
markably good commercial prospect in
China, where he has been minister
since 1905. THE Chinese are very
friendly with us and are anxious to
strengthen the business relations now
existing" said Mr.. Rockhill.
THE building of railroads will open
up the interior of China to a vast
foreign commerce of which America
can have the largest part If ii will go
after it. England, Germany and France
have enjoyed the largest part of Chinese
commerce because they have estab-
lished houses there and have done bus
mess in a progressive manner. The de-
feet in the business relations between
the United States and China has been
that our manufacturers and merchants
have been satisfied with a representa-
tion there by a professional business
agent.
1--WE can sell better goods in China
and at a less cost than any other ma
tion, and l believe when the country
is opened by railroads the American
business man will take advantage of
the friendlness of China"

Brown. who served a term of over a
year for fraud committed in his ad-
ministration of the California Safe De-
posit and Trust company, of which he
was vice president. was released from
the penitentiarv at San Quentin today
upon the expiration of his sentence.
Brown stepped through the prison
gates at 6:30 o'clock this morning, and
after shaking hands with all officials
present and wishing them good luck,
accepted the $5.35 rendered him for
travelling expenses and stepped into a
buggy driven by his son, who was
awaiting him.
Brown was taken to San Rafael by
a circuitCus route, and father and son
ate breakfast at a local hotel. The
former banker took every opportunity
to escape observation. and absolutely
refused to receive interviewers.
