In Central America many natives are
gathering the seeds of this plant, Cedron
Seed, a rare medicine that has valuable
curative powers. But few drug stores
carry this seed, owing to the high cost
of the article.
This country is a large consumer of
this costly seed because it enters into

serious fact which Pel1in faces is that
that REGION the home of the dynasty
which has ruled China for several
centuries, is joining the greater part
of the rest of China in hostility to the

Under these conditions the estab.
Hshment of a republic does not seem
so quixotic an idea as it did in the
beginning. If the rebels agree upon
a republic when the time comes for
creating a government to take the
pace OF that which seems to be
doomed, the republican experiment
will be tried Thousands of the young

them are on the rebel side in this

be exerted in favor of a republic.
With them is WI Ting Fang, who was
minister to the United States for
many years, and who is better known
on each side of the Atlantic than is

day. Apparently the most formidable
enemy of the republic now is mot the
imperial government but the lack of
cash among the rebels, which may
paralyze their efforts eventually and
bring daaos That condition, If it
should come, would be more likely to
bring some sort of "a respotism than

every concession except that. More
over, the rebels have gained some sue

them renewed confidence. Their cap

Of southern China, and the capital now

was a victory of Large consequence
During the weeks in which the Man
chus held out in THAT city the rebel
cause was at halt. For time it
seemed that the Mgh-water mark of
the wave of insurrection had been
reached, and that the ebb in the tide
would soon set in.
But the area of the rebellion Is
again broadening. The declaration of
independence which has BEEN made
