"We are eagerly hoping for
help from the Red Gross Society. !"
This statement only gives an
idea of the conditions in one por
ton of the great famine district.
This-morning, to correspon-
dent, Miss Boardman, of the
American Red Gross, stated:
"The plague is creeping south
ward towards this famine dis
trict. 1t has ravaged Manchur'a,
and thousands of refugees who
have fled to Chefoo, in Chanting
Province, have carried it
there. Hundreds of deaths occur
daily. The frozen ground pre-
vents this burial of the dead and
long rows of coffins lie on the
roadside, American Consul Gem
eral Wilder, vt Shanghai, cabled
to the Red Gross that people
stricken with this plague die
within few hours, and that IT
Is of so fatal a nature no one ever
RECEIVERS. The people have al
last consented to cremation and
several thousand of these bodies
have been burned.
1.-The Red Gross has sent from
Manila DIR. Richard Strong and
DR.. Oscar league, plague ex-
perts, 20 aid the Chinese Gov
eminent to fight the spread of
this fatal pestilence. 1t is now
only about $50 miles from the
provinces in which the famine
exists, and ii 1t ever reaches
there the result will be appal-
ling"
President Taft, as President of
the American Red Gross, has
sent out an urgent appeal to our
people toad China. which is suf-
fering from these dual calami-
ties. Contributions of money
can be sent to Mr.. John B. At
kinson, Darlington, KY, mem
Der of the Kentucky Red Cross
Board.
If the people of America desire
to help these 'suffererers in China
they must act Immediately. The
Red Gross makes all remittances
to Ceina by cable, through the
State Department, thus insuring
safe passage of funds from the
the giver to the beneficiary and
the speedy application of such
funds where they viii do the
most good.

MILLIONS WANT BREAD
Adviees From China Indicate
Great Need
American Red Gross Anxious 70 Aid
in Hating Grim Destroyer

LLLLlIA ttF1fN tl7
Recent advices from China in
dicaie that conditions in the fa
mine district are as bad as have
been rumored and are growing
worse as days 90 by. Two and a
half million Chinese will die for
the want of bread if assistance
is not rendered immediately.
This number comprises nearly
the entire population of the
northern part OF the provinces oil
Kiang-Su aud Bnhui.
The famine in China is the di.
rect result of the great floods
which inundated the provinces
mentioned last summer, running
the crops. Consequently there
was no harvest and the supply OF
foSd on hand was not sufficient
to sustain the people of these
sections until the next harvest.
In fact, unless prompt aid Is rem
derei there will not be a next
harvest. as the Chinese will eat
the seed instead of planting it.
Duringthe first day of the famine
mothers: endeavored to sell their
babies 10 provide food .or them
selves and save the children from
starvation. Now they are trying
to give the children away in the
hope that those to whom the ba-
bies are given will be able to feed
them. Along the banks of the
Grand Canal the victims of this
terrible calamity are living in
mud ADD water, with only shacks
of mating over their heads, hop
ing against hope that they may
exist until boats bearing the staff
of life comes up the canal to re
lieve them.
Writing from Hwai Yuan, via
Marking, K. @. Lobenstiue, Of
the American Presbyterian Mis-
sion, describing the conditions
which exist in the country inn
mediately about Hwai Yuan,
says:
"The majistry of Awal Yuan
has an estimated population OF
100000 persons. The number OF
aminesufferers-those who mus;
be relieved or die-ln this magi
stry alDne, amounts to, approx
mately, 200, 0OO-70 per cent Of
the ensafe population. Last yeal
the food was the worst here il
many years, and the crops were
poor. THE wheat suffered from
droughtand only one third was
saved, This year about half Of
the wheat was harvested, but IN
the region north of Hwai two tor
nadoes and then the flood carried
away practically everything.
"Thesneed here is great, and
the condition of the poor is al
serious as that in other parts
Reports come In daily of people
dying of starvation. The pooi
who have children are trying tt
sell them, but even they will nol

the flames reached the dry house connected
with the mill there was so much dry hummer
within that fears were entertained Tor the
safety of the hotel and the dwelling house
and barn of George Sawyer, but by good
mck when the building fell in, the end
next the mill went first thereby preventing
what might have been one Of the worst OF
fires. Had there been wind all OF TINS
