have met several missionaries who
hold decorations from the emperor, a
prize which, | understand, the COM
mercial community in China covets in
vain. A missionary doctor who has
been so honored is DR.. R. c. Beebe, of
the Methodist Episcopal mission, Nan
king. His steady, benefcent and self
sacrificing work for the Chinese came
to the attention Of the palace. An in
reresting sidelight on missionary infiu-
ence is related concerning DR.. Beebe.
He had been invited. to an official
feast at the viceroy's yamen one Sun
day, and in sending his regrets he ex-
planned somewhat the Christian atti-
tude toward Sunday. For some reason
the letter did not reach the viceroy
until the feast was in progress. The
latter read it aloud, and declared that
he, too, WAS going to keep the first
day of the week free from official
cares; and since then the yamen has
been closed to business Sunday.
One of China's great women is DR..
Mary Fulton, the head Of the Presby-
terrain Woman's hospital and the
Woman's Medical college, Canton; the
latter is the only one of its kind in the
empire and it can never begin to re-
ceive all the students who apply for
admission What is thought of it by
the Chinese is apparent from the fact
that at the recent commencement
shree gold watches were awarded as
prizes to the students by the viceroy.
The most eminent and discriminating
natives do honor to DIR. Fulton, for
she is a physician, an executive and
a woman of unusual ability. Her hos
pital is maintained on the plane of
6rst-class hospitals at home; just to
have trained her staff of native doc
tors would be great life work for
any woman.

Freddie Keller with left uppercut to the
solar plexus in the third round of what
was scheduled 10 be ten-round bout at

The end came after about one minute
of boxing. Monroe forced the boxing, and
hooked left to the head. Keller clinched,
and Monroe sunk his left to the pit Of the
stomach. Keller fell to the floor, claiming
foul. The referee refused to allow the
claim and stopped the bout.

Jimmie Howe outpointed Young Ager in a
fast bout.
The best bout OF the night, however, was
between Mike Gleason and Young jeanette,

boxer of the two. and finally knocked his
man out with a right hook on the jaw in
the third round of a scheduled siX-round
