After my' departure from Lang Yang two trains, left to fol- low on, were attacked on June 18 by Boxers and Imperial troops from Pe- kin, who lost from 400 to 500 killed. Our casualties were 6 killed and 48 wounded. These trains joined me at Yang Tsun the same evening.; hold Ls tiroly U«anolt.h.ti.

Wounded Starterl. by Boat. "On June 19, the wounded, with. necessaries, started by boat, the for- ces marching alongside the river; Op- position was experienced during the whole course of the river from nearly every village, the Boxers, when de- feated at one village, retiring to the next, and skilfully retarding our ad- vance by occupying well -selected posi- tions, from which they bad to be for- ced often.at the point of the bayonet, and in face of a galling fire, difficult to locate. A Night March. "On June 23 we made a night march, arriving at daybreak opposite the Imperial armory above. Tien Tsin, where, after friendly advances, a treacherous heavy Bre was opened while our Hien were exposed on the apposite bank of the river. The ene- my were kept in check by rifle fire in front; while their position was turn- ed by a party of marines and seamen, under Major Johnson, who rushed and occupied' one of the salient points, seizing the guns. The Germans, low- er down, silenced two guns, and then crossed the river and captured theta. The armory was next occupied by the combined forces. Determined at- tempts to retake the armory were made on the following day, but un successfully. : fu l y.

By George, but this is luck!" "I shall be happy to book your Or- der," smilingly replied the canvasser, "Will you take calf or morocco?" "My dear man," continued the ma- jor, "my name is on a sign at the door, but it doesn't state my business. Let me say to you that I am a grand pro- moter of enterprises, an organizer, a consolidater, an original or of some of the most stupendous and gigantic schemes of the country. You have come to the right man in the right time. "Will you tape calf or morocco?" "Six stupendous enterprises in the last six weeks—one per week—and everyone of them bound to pay a quar- terly dividend of 30 per cent—bound to do it. That's $1,20 per year, and I'd like to see the diamond mines doing better. Six stupendous enterprises originated, capitalized and floated, and now comes the seventh. Fortune must have directed your footsteps. I am going to take you in. Yes, sir, I'll give you a show compared to which the 'Life of Napoleon' can't be mentioned. Let me congratulate you, sir—let me shake hands with another newborn millionaire!" "Y -e -s, but how about the boot;, major?" was asked. "You have heard of the dietary sausage, of course," said the major as he walked to and fro; "invented by accident by one of the greatest chefs in America, and, as he had no idea of what 'a good thing he had, struck, 1 bought his right, ' title and interest for "sALARY TO BE PAID WEEKLY ORMONTHiT." a mere song.

It's the way they are fried that makes 'em dietary and has set the gormands crazy; sure to drive 'every other sausage out of the market in four weeks ` more—sure to do it; can be furnished as rations to every army and navy in the world; can be sold in every hotel, boarding house and family wherever humanity exists; good for breakfast, dinner or supper; can't run , no camp meeting, picnic or Sunday school excursion with- out 'em. My dear fellow man, your fortune is madel" ' "If you would select the style of binding"— began the man. "But we've got to go a little slow for a few weeks," interrupted the major. "There is a disposition on the 'part of the world's aristocracy to class sau- sage way down on the list: of meats; can't expect that lords and dukes and presidents will order a second plate of them until they realize that it won't affect their social positions; got to look out for social prestige, you know. Once get the whirlwind' of popularity started, and the public won't, stop to ask whetherour dietaries are made of fish, flesh or coco matting.: First thing is to warrant them to cure indi- gestion, torpid liver and all that. They are a spring and fall tonic. All sing- ers, actresses and athletes use them; testimonials from professors, actors, clergymen and thousands of others, and all family doctors recommend them above everything else. And there you are, my boy; there you are, and let me shake hands with you again." "But the book, major. The price in calf Is"— "Ind you are to be our purchasing agent and buy our raw material.
