REVOLT WILL BE sHORT-LIvED

Washington, July 24.-Ameri-
cans in the revolving Southern
provinces of China are calling for
help.
that Charge Williams, at Pekin,
has called upon Rear Admiral Mich
olson for a guard of marines from
the Asiatic squadron. The marines
are to be sent to Kuling, in the
Kiang-si Province, which recently
seeded from the Chinese Republic.
Martial law was proclaimed to-
day in Kiang-si and Kiang-su Prov
nices, according to State Depart
ment reports.
At this time of the year Kuling
is filled with Americans and other
foreigners. The principal city o.
Kiang-su Province is Shankhai,
which last week threw off its allie
glance to the Pekin Government.
1t has become necessary to ex-
ercise extraordinary police powers
in Pekin in order to preserve order.
The Consulate General at Canton
reports that the action of the Pro-
vincial Government of Kwang-tung.
in revolving against the Central
Government. is strongly opposed by
Chinese merchants, and that bus
mess practically is at standstill.
Trade is Paralyzed.
Canton, China, July 24.-Trade
throughout Southern China has
been paralyzed by the proclamation
of the independence of the province
of Kwang-Tung.
The incident has created a feel
ing of great anxiety in this city.
Stores have been closed and many
of the merchants have telegraphed
to shippers not to consign goods
here for the present
A great many people have left
the city in junks and others have
gone to the north on foot. Thous-
ands more have flocked into the
Portuguese colony of Macao and
into Hongkong. Among the lat
ter are many officials who have re-
tired from their posts. carrying
with them millions of dollars in
silver and paper money.
There is a strong feeling of re-
sentiment throughout the southern
provinces against the policy of Pro-
visional President Yuan Shi Kai,
but it is felt in most quarters that
it will be impossible to resist him
long. as he commands a large train
ed army, possesses money and has
the support of the great Powers.
The fact that the merchants of
Hongkong do not sympathize with
the independence movement Is re-
garded among foreign observers as
a sign that the revolt will be short
lived.

his MEMORY WILL LIVE LONG

The story of how Sam Davis, the
boy spy of the Confederacy. stood
the supreme test of moral and phys
ical courage is one which will new
er lose its interest nor its thrill to
the descendants of the brave men
who fought in the great Civil War.
Out of those stirring war times,
when lives were held cheaply and
deeds of bravery were common,
come many chronicles and records
Sof heroes who died for the common
cause. But Sam Davis not only
gave his life cheerfully and fear
lessly for the cause he was serving,
but to protect his superior officer.
When the war broke out, Davis,
who was mere boy, left school
and enlisted in the first Tennessee
Regiment. Two years later, be-
cause of his keen intelligence and
soldiery qualities, he was assigned
to a party of scouts under the COM
mand of Capt. Shaw Shaw was a
Confederate spy who was known
within the Federal lines as Cole
man. Posing as an itinerant doctor
he was able to gather considerable
information. which he sent through
the lines in care of one of his
scouts.
On one occasion he selected
young Davis to carry to General
Bragg certain papers giving late
and important news regarding the
movements of the Federal forces.
The Union men had become aware
of the existence of spies in the
!, camp. and the undertaking had as
,sumed most perilous aspect as
they were keeping a very sharp
lookout.
Davis hid the dangerous docu-
ment in his shoes, and with Cole
mans pass. started south for
Bragg's headquarters. On his first
day out he was run down and cap
tured by the "Jay-hawkers," the
famous Kansas Seventh Cavalry.
The papers were discovered, and
that night he was lodged in Jail in
Pulaski. On the same day Capt.
Shaw himself had been captured
and was a prisoner in the same
town. Davis reports were placed
in the hands of General Dodge, the
Federal Commander, who twice had
him brought to headquarters,
where he was urged to disclose the
name of the one who had commit
ted to him the captured messages.
1t was pointed out that his only
hope for leniency lay in the disclos-
ing of this information. This he
refused to do. General Dodge,
strongly touched by the boys sense
of honor and duty, pleaded hard
with him. but Davis answered: 81
will not tell where got the infor-
nation. and there is no power on
earth that can make me tell. You
are doing your duty as soldier,
and, if have to die. shall be do
ing my duty to God and my coun-
try"
Shaw could have saved Davis
life with a word, but his courage
was evidently not of the same char
acter as the boys. for he remained
silent.
On November 81, one week from
the day of his capture. Davis was
executed as spy. Calmly and
fearlessly. without sound of in
spring drum or cheer of trumpet.
with no fas living. with no COM
rade beside him. surrounded only
by an impatient foe. he gave his
life rather than to violate his sense
