this country is particularly to blame,- \u2014 | twenty-eight miles in length, has gates | built: to resist attack from within or | without, and at intervals in the wall \u2018are embrasures for cannon.The Chinese | troops have modern weapons, and they will not be easily dislodged from \u201che wall.\u2018Around the Chinese city is a smaller wail twenty-five feet in height, also built for defence.A trolley line one and a half miles long runs from the terminus of the railway to the centre of the city, terminating near the forbidden ground occupied by the Emperor and the Dowager Empress.\u2018According to the despatches, the relief forces sent fron* Tien-tsin has advanced only about two-thirds of the distance to Pekin.They have followed the railway, which is « double track road and crosses the river tice.The Forts - at.Taku, which d = ably bE att Eh ;

how the famous \u2018Golden Horde\u2019 of Kin Tartars laid cut their capital of Chung Tu in 1151; what Ghengiz Khan and his Mongols thought a great city should be in 1215; how the immortal Kublai Khan constructed Khanbalik, \u2018the city of the Khan, a century later\u2014Polo talls it Cambaluc; and much more interesting history down to the advent of the present Manchus in 1644.And it is the walls, in excellent preservation, that mark the division of the Pekin of to- day\u2014first the so-called \u201cChinese, or Outer City, more properly the Southern City; adjoining it is the Inner or \u2018Tartar City, or Manchu properly Northern; inside this the \u2018Imperial City\u2019 and inside this again, the \u2018Forbidden City,\u2019 the actual jmperial residence itself.The ethnological distinctions of Chinese and \u2019 together with all the foreign reuidentés, tré in the Paitaf City, abd |#hat the wall of the latter is much the plarger and more massive structure.The ground plan of Pekin is supposed to represent à human body, but it is better described as being laid out on the chess-board plan of American cities west of Chicago.There are two great streets which intersect at a central point, and from all parts of these other streets, lanes and alleys run in straight lines.Every corner in Pekin seems to be a right angle; there are no winding thoroughfares.The houses are all very low, with flat roofs, and it is hard to see a single first-class Chinese dwelling-house in the whole city.- \u2018 SENERAL | PIETERBBURG 5: : © LEYDSDORP: NYLSTROOM © çÇ * ;

the initial move must be made in Montreal, but the feel ing is strong that if Mr.Hooper, representing the English lodges, and his influ ential friends led in that movement, union would result.It is further sug gested here that St.Paul's Lodge should head.the list of Quebec lodges with the number \u2018naught\u2019 that Mr.Hooper should succeed the present Grand Master of Quebec, and that he should represent England near the Grand Lodge of that province.AN DERSON-BLACKHAM.A very happy event took place last Thursday.June 14, at four o'clock, when Miss Mary Rutherford Blackham, only.daughter of the late \u2018William Blackham, and Mr.J.Walker Anderson, son of Mr.James Anderson, of this city, ;were married.The ceremony was performed in.St.Matthew\u2019s Presbyterian Church by the Rey.E, A.Mackenzie, B.A., B.D.The church was.tastefully decora the pocasion ducs ee Workeny ety.~The, Hm 388 given ay Mr, [John Fi: en sérved as bridesmaid, pi thé -groom was-supported by his \u2018brother, Mr.F.J.Anderson.At the conclusion of the ceremony \u2018refreshments \u201cwere served at tlie residence of the groom\u2019s parents, after which Mr.and Mrs.Anderson left \u2018by the stearher \u2018Montreal\u2019 for Québec.Numerous and costly presents testify to the esteem in which they are held.CAUGHT IN THE UNITED STATES.- Washington, June 18.\u2014The State Department has issued a warrant for the surrender to the Canadian authorities of George.\u2018Johnson, now held\" under arrest at Buffalo as a fugitive from justice.Johnson was sentenced to seven ears\u2019 imptisonment in Montreal for urglary.\u2018He recehtly was made a tic- ket-of-leave.man;.but \u2018broke his parole by crossing jnto the.United States.From.enquiry at the Montreal detective.headquarters - it is léarned that Johnson was.arres in Montreal for attempting to kill, about three years By some mepns he escaped from the police court \u2018during his trial so was not: senteneed for that offence.Later be was arrested for burglary and was gentenced to seven.years in the penis centiosy : After about two e.was\" \u2018recently \u2018allowed out on The new.ticket-ofdeave system, and went alinost \u201cImimediately to\u2019 Buffalo.Büfalé he was arrested a short time.ago.for burglary, and investigation brotgh here as a fugitive from justice.will probably soon be brought back.D.BOT SAFE Toe ;

Look out!\u201d shriéked Kerry, as a huge wave lifted the boat sidewise.It was too late.The boat \u2018capsized.It went over gradually, and kept afloat, bottém side up.- When Kerry and Bees came to the sur face they found the beat within regon, and clutched the life-saving guards of cork, covered with canvas, which Dr.Kendall had had attached to the siden of the boat for just such an emergency as the présent.They looked anxiously for Kit.She came up within reach, and Kerry \u2018grasped - her and drew her up to the boet where she, too, grasped a life guard.There was no crying now.Each \u2018spoke firmly and encouraged the others to hold .'They turned their faces toward.the chore and shouted for help.= Soon\u2019 a large black object came boundirig \u2018down the beach.It was Noof.Little Kit recognized him first; and oried outy \u2018Oh.! there's Nook.He'll get as ashore.Come, Noof.Come, Noof.| Come, Noof I\u2019, \u201cThe dog hea¥d and plinging into\" the heavy sea, swam with strong strokes: \u2018out toward.the capes Boat, ER The dog was soon at \u2018the boat.: \u2018Go to Kit, Noof.- Go to-Kit,\", thé thé children :éried.ès The dog understood and obeyed.\u201c swam up to Kit and went around in circles as if inviting her to take\u2018hold of his back.After a little hesitétion.\u2018she loosed her hold on.thé life güuatc buried her hands in the hair of N shag back.» ow, swim ashore, - Noof.érid soon Kit lay panting.on the she grasped his shaggy tot \u2018aa 8 taken ashore.Then he oti £ for ca again, amid the encouraging.calls | he chil children.But he did ; » 5 \u201c} æred with perspiration.As Kerry open- fed his eyes the lips of the lighthouse | his desth we as @ yas therJews,.s{-axe-t { ) s+ \u2018Then Christ sought.out an: sem 5 | God, ¢ | In a 3 te vien ine | & change.in- the | got new \u2018No; replied the .heart.The animal wis afraid of him.The discovery was a hard blow.Al | 9 ready exhausted by his, struggles against.the \u2018storm, - the.\u201cboy grew weak with die ent.\u2026 He was amb.with ihe | u WH \u2018of \u2018the Water.With! what: strerigth he could \u2018eïmmon: he\u2019 called: et \u2018to:2Moôf.His cFies were growl: \u2018she might not have to see Kerry drown.It was only too true.Kerry could] not hold.himself up above the heavy waves much longer.He passed hia arm through the loop in the life-line running hom, the boat and .lay back upon the \u2018They rested him.Me thought he uld just lie back on them a little{ more and rest longer.À voice roused\u2019 him.It came from out on the lake.Jt was Donald Cameron, tugging desperately at his oars, and shodting to Kerry.over his shoulder to hold on.- Kerry \u2018tried to answer.\u2019 \u2018Im all right,\u2019 and then sank down to the long-coveted rest.The next that Kerry knew he was.lying on his own bed in the cottage.\u2018His: mother, crying, knelt beside him, and.bathed his temples with spirits.His\u2019 father, who: had , retarned.soon after Kerry was brought up from the lake by Donaid Cameron, peered anxiously into Kerry's face, while he képt his hand upon his heart: Donald Cameron bent eagerly over his bed, his rugged face cov- keeper trembled.Covering his face with his hand, the man said with \u2018broken voice : \u2014 \u2018 Heavenly Faether, T thank thee!

them to win the championship last year.Thejr defence is bteady, Quinn and Finlayson being a problem which the home men of the opposing team find a dificult problem to solve, The result of the match was somewhat of a surprise, as the champion Shamrocks were regarded as almost certain winners in view of their fine record of last year and thelr strong game against the Capitals in Ottawa last Saturday.Lacrosse has probably undergone an evolution since the crack Montreal team of a number .of years ago carried off the championship, but the fact that the club has closely followed up the game of lacrosse was abundantly evidenced on Saturday, as the young Montreal team played the game with all its modern ingovations and tactics as if the club had pever withdrawn from the senior league.Montreal city has three strong senior teams this year, and at present it is a toss up which of them will figure best at the close of the season.The teams lined up as foilows:\u2014 Montreal\u2014Hamilton, goal; Taylor, point; W.Murphy, cover point ; Haynes, Moore and McKerrow, defence fleld: W.Christmas, centre; Irvine, Porteous, B, Christmas, home fleld; Downey, outside home ;
