The navy department received the
following cablegram from Admiral
Konipff:
“Tako, Juno 25.—Secretary

Admiral SeymourVforce is about ten
miles from Toin Tsin. It is surround¬
ed by Chinese troops and boxers and
hampered by tho presence of sick and
wounded. It is reported that all
foreigners wore sent from Pekin with
a weak Chinese guard, and it is as¬
sumed that they aro with Admiral Bey-
mour.
THE SITUATION EXPLAINED.
After a (lay of uncertainty and bub
pension, official information bogan to
reach Washington with a rush early
Tuesday morning concerning the force
operating at Tien Tsin and thoBO seek¬
ing to break through to Fekin. Ad
miral Kempff's dispatch and that from
Consul Fowler, at Che Foo, both coti-
llrmed tho reports that tho combined
forces which have been opcrat^ig near
Tien Tsin entered the city on the 23d.
The admiral added tho welcome intel¬
ligence: "Loss very small."
This is the relief column, including
marines, which suffered a repulse ou
their first movement. Beyond the
brief statement of four killed and seven
wounded, nothing has come as to the
casualties of this first attack but the
result of the second movement, which
has boon awaited with deepest concern,
is now cleared up by the administra¬
tion’s reports. It remains yet to be
reported liow the relief column found
affairs at Tien Tsin, whore, according
to tho unofficial reports of last woek,
anarchy prevailed and the foreign
quarters were destroyed.
But the admiral's report turned
attention in a new direction by the
Btatemunt thnt the Pekin relief force
is reported ten miles from Tien Tsin,
surrounded. This is the first word of
auy kiud that has located the party of
2,500 under Vico Admiral Seymour,
aud including Captain McCalla, with
100 United States marines. The last
heard of thorn was on June 12th,when
they were stuffed at Lang Fang, about
two-thirds of the way from Tien Tsin
to Pekin, short of supplies and Wntor,
the railroad torn up and witli a men¬
acing army of Chinese about them.
lu Admiral Kempff’s information it
discloses that Admiral Seymour’s force
bus not beeu able to get through to
Pekin, hut has retraced a good part of
the distuuco previously covered, and
is now back w'ithiu teu miles of Tien
fain Tsiu. Tho whole distance from Tien
to Pekin is about 80 miles, and
the Seymour expedition, when at Lung
Fang, had covered abont 55 miles of
that distance. It ui to succor this Sey¬
mour party that the latest expeditiou
left Tien Tsin on the 24th instant, ac¬
cording to tlio closing words of
Kempff’s report. There have been so
many expeditions that officials them¬
selves are Homowliat confused ns to tho
several movements, and it is well to
locato the dilferont expeditions as they
stand the Intest
The first body of foreign troops,

thought to have got through. Tho
force of 2,500 under Seymour, after
mnkiug two-thirds of the distance, is
now back ten miles from Tion Tsiu,
according to Admirnl Kempff. Tho
first force which weut against Tien
Tsiu, including Major Waller’s ma¬
rines and 400 Bnssinns, was repulsed
with loss. This was reinforced to
2,000 men, and tho reinforced body
entered Tien Tsin on the 23d. Ou the

assistance of the force ten miles from

PARTY
Holds Forth In National Conven¬
tion In tho City of Chicago.
PLATFORM MADE OF A SINGLE ISSUE
Campaign Will Re Waged With the Sole
aud Determined Purpose of Squelch¬
ing the Liquor Truffle.
The prohibition party will make its
national campaign this year npon a
platform of a single issue—the liqnot
traffic—all other issues being subor-
dinated to this one quoation.
Tho national convention of the pro¬
hibitionists met in Chicago Wednesday
aud in throo sessions, morning, after¬
noon and evening, cleared np all bus¬
iness oxcept the nominations for preB-
ideut aud vice president, which went
ovor for Thursday morning, The
convention in point of numbers was
considered one of the greatest ever
held by the advocates of cold water.
Just privioua to the fall of the gavel
tlie delegates from New England stateB
miirehed into the hall in a body, each
carrying a canteen stamped and with the
letters U. 8. inverted bearing the
legend '‘Anti-Canteen." They were
liberally applauded. After the con¬
vention was called to ordor Chairman
Stewart proceeded to deliver a formal
address.
The report of tho committee on per¬
manent organisation and order of busi¬
ness recommended Samuel Dickie, of
Michigan, for permanent chairman
and Colonel It. B. ClieVos, of TehnCs-
seo, for permanent secretary. It was
adopted. The platform says in part!
"We declare there is no principle
now advocated by any other party
which could be made a fact in govern*
meet with snch benfeficeutj moral and
material results as the principle of pro¬
hibition, npplied to tho beverage li¬
quor traffio, thnt the national interest
could not be promoted in any other
way so surely and widely as by its as¬
sertion, through a national policy and
ilia eo-operation therein of every state,
forbidding tho manufacture, sale, et-
portation, importation and transporta¬
tion of intoxicating liquors for bever¬
age purposes; that we stand for this as
the only principle proposed settlement by any of
party anywhere for the a
question greater and graver than any
other before the American people and
involving more profoundly than any
othor their future, and financial welfare
and all the patriotio citizenship of this
country agreed upon this principle,
however much disagreement there
may be to minor considerations and
issues, should stand together at tho
ballot box from this time forward un¬
til prohibition is an established fact in
tho United States with a party in
power to enforce It and to ensure Its
moral and material benefits.
"We submit thnt the Democratic and
Republican parties ore alike insincere
in their assumed policy to trusts and
monopolies. They dare not and do
not attack the most dangerous of them
all, the liquor power. So long as the
saloon dobauches the citizen and
breeds the purchasable voter, money
will continue to buy its way to power.
Break down this traffic, elevato man¬
hood and a sober citizeuship will find
n way to control dangerous combina¬
tions of capital." the
The platform was received with
wildest enthusiassn. Every sentence
in condemnation of President McKin¬
ley was greated with shouts of approv¬
al aud crios of “hit him again," the
delegates standing oil their chairs and
yelling themselves hoarse.
“I have another resolution com¬
mended by the committee on resolu¬
tions,” said Professor Hopkins, the
chairmau. He then read the following:
"Resolved, That it is the sense of
this convention that the right of ballot
shall not be denied auy oitizen ou ac¬
count of sex."
After considerable discussion wns had
a rising vote was called for, and the
platform and additional resolution fa¬
voring woman suffrage was adopted
by a practically unanimous vote, amid
a tempest of cheers. Some delegate
started "BleBBed Be the Tie That
Binds,” and the whole assemblage
joined in a thunderous song of praise,
even the throngs in the gallery taking
up the old hymn.
The convention then adjoorned un¬
til t) 30 o'clock Thursday morning.

EYE SALVE
DEFECTIVK SlUHf.
Warning to Thoie Who Need Glasses had
Will Not Use Them.
The three defects of eyesight which
are most eomluunly encountered In
otherwise healthy persons, and which
enn be more or less perfectly over¬
come by means of glasses, are near¬
sightedness, far-sightedness and astig¬
matism. These are all Important, for
besides the discomfort nnd annoyance
of Imperfect sight, the Involuntary ef¬
forts which the sufferer makes to see
better strain tile eyes, aud not only
Injure them, but also give rise, through
reflex notion, to headaches and vari¬
ous nervous disturbances.
Near-sightedness, short-sightednesSi
or myopia as it Is variously called, is
n condition of the eyeball—usually a
lengthening—In consequence of which
the rays of light are brought to a
focus in front of the retina, and so the
object Is blurred.
This condition may exist from birth,
but. is usually the result of too much
and too early use of the eyes, as In
the case of students, engravers, wo¬
men who do tine sewing, and So forth.
Thus we may say that putting children
to work at some of the kindergarten
exorcises, stieh as perforating and
drawing, Is in a double sense a short¬
sighted procedure.
Many near-sighted people refuse to
wear glasses, preferring to deprive
themselves of Right for everything be¬
yond the nose rather than to injure
their personal appearance, as they
think. This Is another short-sighted
policy, for besides losing much of the
Joy of existence, which comes front
seeing the beautiful tilings about and
above us, such persons are very liable
to suffer from. Inflammation of the
eyes, produced by constant strain.
A less common defect Is long or far¬
sightedness, or hypermetropin. This Is
the opposite of myopia, the eyeball
being flattened or shortened, and the
rays of light consequently not coming
to a focus by the time they reach the
retina.
In this case, the eye often corrects
the defect more or less successfully
by making the crystalline lens more
convex; but It does this at the expense
of the sufferer’s nervous force, and so
we often find tired and congested eyes,
headaches, indigestion, and even seri¬
ous nervous affections. The effort to
correct the vision is entirely involun¬
tary, and can be overcome only by the
fitttlng of suitable convex glasses.
The third and most common defect
Is nstigmatlsin. In this condition there
is some Irregularity of the surface of
the eye or of the lens, by means of
which the Image as It reaches the re¬
tina Is distorted. Untreated astigma*
tlsm is a frequent cause of headache
nnd other nervous disturbances. The
only relief Is the wearing of glasses,
at least while reading, 'writing, 01
whenever near objects are looked at.-«

Modeling That Means Money Making.
Mnny of the art students who are
specializing In clay modeling pay much
attention to the commercial end of the
work. Greek statues and Renaissance
friezes may be a more Inspiring form
of art and necessary for tralntng and
cultivation, but a model of a pair of
andirons or candlesticks, a section of a
mantel or any other bit of house fur¬
nishing or finishing that will attract the
attention of a manufacturer Is more
profitable from a money viewpoint.
Such models usually are shown at the
public exhibitions of the art schools,
and manufacturers ou the lookout for
pew and original designs are willing to
pay well for anything that appeals to
thetr liking and that, In their Judgment,
would sell well. Besides the money
that this transaction puts into the pock¬

your tongue is coated, if you arc bilious, if
your head aches, if your food rests heavy on
your stomach, and if you arc constipated,
then the whole trouble is with your liver.
What you need is a good liver pill, an easy
liver pill, a purely vegetable liver pill. You
need a box of Ayer’s Pills, that’s what you
