are a total of $4,000 brigands. This
total does not include the bandits of

pality inhabited by 1000 persons. Yu
Shan-hei, whose followers number
5000, Is the chief rival of Fan Yu-lin.
The daring of the brigands in
SShantung recently becaume so open
that the Tuchun of the province,

let them go after brief captivity. G.

CONTRAST OF WARTIME

London, July 11.-An interesting
contrast Of wartime London today
with the London as Dickens knew 1t
lis drawn by the well-known writer
George R. Simms, in one Of the daily
papers. He has been wandering
around the old familiar spots immor'
talized by the great novelist and ne
thought "of the happy days and nights
of long ago when Dickens found the
ioy of life in every street and byWay
of the big city, and the feast and the
wassail bowl were typical of the Mar

compares them with "the days that

food of the people is strictly rationed
when the houses of cheer are CLOSED

when, long before midnight curfe"

Entering the city from London

There "a bulldog peers out from a

Nearby are two establishments that
were familiar objects in Dickens day.

a pawnshop. But though it is early
in the afternoon the public-house is

says, this establishment was so lib
