RAVAGES OF FIRE AND SWORD ShiM'kltiK I'lcturrn ii( Wiinlon tinnier unit I'llliiKO Coin ml tied liy thu Soldier of M(i-('nllil C'lirUtlau .Notion. In tho Contemporary tlcvlcw (or Jiinu try, under tho tltlo of "Tho Chinese Wolf nd tho European Lamb," Mr. B. J. Dillon presents In harrowing details an uccotiiit of tho massacres of tho Chlncso by the so- called allied European soldiery. This Is the description of u scerw nt the bar of tho Tnku, toward the mouth of the Pel Ho: "Dead bodies of Chlnamon were lloatlng seaward) some with eyes ngape and aghast, others with brnlnlosu skulls and eyeless sockets, and nearly all of them wearing their blue blouses, buggy trousers ami black glossy pigtails. Many of them looked ns If they were merely swimming on their backs. Hovering over each was a dense cloud of files, and higher still, in trie not heavy air, unclean birds of prey wheeling round and round, but never once uesconu Sng. They had long been battening on shore, nnd had grown squeamish. Tho sky -as stagnate with heat; tho nir quicKenou to lire, and quivered till Its vibrations wore visible to tho eye; thcro was not n breath of wind to stir tho leafage of tho willows on tho distant banks. Awny out in the oiling one could descry tho heads of men swaying from sldo to sldo with a motion very different from drifting. On drawing nearer nnd looking through tho glasses, I became nwaro that scores of Chinamen ccnttcred over tho spnee. of many miles wero up to tholr ncekM In water. Ench nnd rvcry ono of theso tollers of tho sea was ulaiiding upon stilts Hailing for boIoh, and holding n not which ho worked with both hands. Their heads were Imperfectly nhlelded from tho sun's blistering rays by tho colls of their plaited hair, and their bodies, up to their necks, had been soaking thus In brlno sltico early morning. These men wero working for tho surviving mem bers of their families. Kar as they wero from each other, they wero still more dls- tant from the shore, the nearest stretch of which was some threo miles off. Now, none of theso busy fishermen cvor moved nwny from the bodies of their townsmen, which kept lloatlng slowly past, each accompanied by lis black cloud of lllcs, nnd Infecting the sir for many a rood around. Thoso wretched helots who thus left tho dead to bury their deail had little of tho magic power that excites fellow feeling. Ami It would have stood them In poor atend If they had possessed It. Vol they sorely needed nolnco; for their souls wero as completely Mr-cued In misery ns their bodies were In svnter. 'Funny fellows, tho Chinese; heart less brutes,' wns the only comment I heard is wo sailed post nnd other scenes gr.ulu illy unrolled themselves to our eager gaze. After having loft Tien Tain Mr. Dillon Kent by river Into the, neighboring country llnviiKt-n "f I'M re itml .Snrd. "Fire nnd sword bad put their marks upon this entire country. The untrampled corn was rotting In tho fields, tho pastures wero herdlcss, rootless thu ruins of houses tho humlets devoid of Inhabitants. In all the villages we panned tho desolation was tho same. Day after day, hour after hour, sometimes minutes after minutes, bloated corpses, pillowed on tho crass ooze, drifted down tho current, now getting entangled In thn ropes, nqw caught by an oh.stac.lo near tho short). Three livid corp'sos were thus held fast on a llttlo Islet In midstream nnd thu shallows around kept mo a few yards to tho lco of them for not less than six hours of n scorchlngly hot day. Hard by a spot named Koh So. I saw two bodies on a low-lying ledgo of tho Bhorc. Ac customed by this tlmo to behold In tho broad light of day some of tho horrors which tho soil of thu graveyard hides from all living things but tho worm, I should have glided carelessly past them but for tho pathos of tholr story, which needed no nrttculato volco to tell. A father nnd his boy of 8 bad been shot down in tho name of civilization whllo holding each other's hands nnd prnylng for mercy. And thcro they lay, hand still holding hand, whllo n brown dog was slowly eating ono of tho arms of tho father. To Europeans nt homo Btich n night would appeal with forco; to Chinamen It is the embodiment of spiritual as well ns physical misery, for tho son who should have kept his father's memory alive In this world, nnd been help ful to htm In tho world to come, hud been cut down ns well as himself. It wns like killing a man In his sins so ns to Insure his eternal damnation, which was ono of tho many forma of nsBasslnntlon In mediaeval Italy. 1 looked at tho fares of tho llttlo boy and his father, and I can see them still, ns clearly nnd nlmost as concretely as I Haw them on tho day. Truly It Is not 'sickly sentimentality' that marks the at titude of Kuropean culture-bearers toward China." The terrlblo conditions In Tung Tschau are thus described: "I apeak as nn oyo witness when I say, for example, that ovor and over again tho gutters of the city of Tung Tschnu ran red with blood, and I Homellmes found It Im possible, to go my way without getting my boots bespattered with human gore. There wero few shops, private houses and court yards without deud bodies and pools of dark blood. Amid n natlvo population whose very souls quaked with fear at sight of a rifle, rovolvcr or military uniform, n reign of red terror was Inaugurated for which there Beems no adequate motive. Kven If nil the Chinese within tho city walls hud risen In revolt against the foreigners, tho latter would hnvo quelled It almost without an effort. Yet they were kept with a Damocles' sword lontlmmlly falling on their heads. No native's life or property was safe for an hour. Men 1 had boon speaking to before lunch were In their graves before sundown, and no mortal will over know tho reason why. Tho thirst of blood had made men mod. The pettiest and most despica ble whipper-snapper who happened to have seen tho light of day In Europe or Japan had uncon'trollublo power over the life and limbs, tho body nnd soul, of tho most highly-cultivated Chinaman In the city. From his decision thcro was no appeal. A Chinaman never knew what might betide lilm nn hour hence. It the Kuropean lost hU temper. Ho might lie down to rest after having worked like a beast of burden for twolvo or fourteen hours only to be sud denly nwakened out of his sleep, marched a few paces from his hard couch, and shot dead. He was never told, nnd probably seldom guessed, tho reason why. 1 saw an old man and woman who wero thus hur riedly hustled nut of existence. Their day's work dono they wero walking home, when a flro broke out on n llttlo barge nn the r'er. They wero tho only living beings founfi out of bed at tho time, and In tho pockets of the woman a candle and somo matches wero stowed away. Nobody, not even the boat watchman, bad seen them on or near the uoat. Tliey wero pounccu upon, lasen iu Itolloro Asthma, Bronchitis, C'uro Coughs, Sore Throat, Catarrh. Hoarseness. Nothing excels this simple remedy, the rlver'8 edge, shot nnd burled. It was tho work of fifteen minutes or less. Short shrift was given to any native. Europeans had their own business to nttend to, nnd adjudicating mnttcrs of this kind could bo but an Interlude. Executions wero too fre quent to have much precious time wasted on tho preliminaries. No fire over broko out to my knowledge without a number of Chinamen being Immolated next day on the nltar of Justice or vengeance. The Chinese were treated as Christiana were In the reign of Nero." Treatment of Women. If at tho beginning there may havo been somo Isolated cases of Japanese cruelty, Mr. Dillon writes, "tho Japanese generals very sternly set their faces against this species of deviltry, visiting the offenders brought beforo them with such terrlblo punishment that among their troops tho practlco died suddenly out, nnd tho Japs succeeded In sotting an example of political wisdom to all tho foreign allies." A fur ther compliment Is paid to tho Japanese: "In battle fearless and fierce, they were wont to sparo tho lives of harmless people In all towns nnd cities, nnd to post up no tices on the dcors within which such pro tected citizens dwelt, calling upon all their allied to sparo and 'not to molest tho In mates, who nro good, loyal people.' In worldly wisdom, as In their .commissariat ami hcspltal organization, tho Japs were considerably ahead of the best of the Chris tian allies." To tho lust for blood was added tho horrl bio treatment of tho women. Mr. Dillon writes; "So far ns I have been able to make out, and I havo boon at some pains to Investi gate tho subject, no otllccrs or soldiers of Kngllsh or Gcrmnn-spcaklng nationalities havo been guilty of theso abominations against defenseless women. And tho crimes of this nature which wero committed In tho cities, towns and villages In which I was staying wero numerous. It cannot bo galn snld, nnd should be openly ulllrmcd, that after a tlmo severo measures wero pro claimed against offenders, nnd I remember thai on September t a Russian soldier was arrested by somo Indian troops lu the act of violating a woman, nnd wns duty handed over to hlb military superiors for punish ment. Hut It would be unfair to pass over In stlenco tho fact that only two days pre viously n Sikh had been pounced upon by the Russians nnd delivered up to tho Ilrlt lsh for condign punishment for u similar offense; and, two days earlier still, two other Indians hail been shot dead by Ameri can soldiers tor violating a Chinawoman. To compnro nationalities In respect of the guilt of their representatives would bp at once misleading to the. historian and preju dtelnl to tho lauso of humanity. It Is enough to know that outrages against fe male honor were heinous nnd many; to gether with the taking of unprotected lives (ind property, they wero tho crimes rriost frequently committed by tho nllled troops." As to tho Ho.xors, nt first utter exter mination Bcemu to hnvo been tho rulo of action. "Down to tho beginning of November tho llrltlsh wero the only troops which, to my knowledge, gave quarter to Boxers, taking the wounded members Into hospitals nnd caring for them ns for their own men. Tl ey also refused, more than once, to shoot In cold blood Chinamen who had fought against them hi buttle, but wero takeu weeks later without arms In their bands, On tho other hand, the Jnpancso, who, throughout tho Invasion of China, have been on their Sunday behavior, were tho only power nmong the allies who under stood the natives, gained their confidence, restored perfect order, and re-established the reign of law. The Japanese districts of Tien Tsin and 1'ekln, for Instance, wero model cities quite, npart from all others. They wero crowded with Chinamen who had returned nnd were going about their ordi nary business without fear for life or prop erty. Markets wero held hero every day, and victuals bought and sold at tho tlmo that all the other wards of these cities wero In a state of chaos und without vegetn bios or meat. The Japanese wero nnlmatcd by u desire to show Kuropo that If a thor ough reorganization of China be desirable they, and they alone, can effect It. And this they hnvo gone far toward proving to Kuropo and tho world In tho most con vincing way. Looting was first put down lu tho Jnpaneso wards of I'ckln." The Hint of Loot. Looting may bo said to have been gen eral. The richest harvest was that gleaned by the Japanese. They holped themselves freely to tho silver In tho mint nnd treas ury at lcktn. The Russians showed the creatcst ability In plundering. "Tho law less looting which the rules of war against barbarlutiB wero said to warrant was con tinued until there was nothing left worth carrying off." Ah to the plundering of tho nnartmentB In tho Forbidden City, Mr. DII Inn declares there wub n satanlc humor nbout It worthy of a modern Hogarth Hvervbodv wanted n "souvenir. "Tho clvlllzers hurst Into tho imperial rhninhorH. (lesi)ltc tho respectful requests of the mandarins present, but it was only, for sooth, to havo n look or tako n photograph Then they handled tho furniture, but merely In order to nscertnlu tho nature, or tho mctnls and the hardness of tho wood. Then drawers wero pulled out nnd cases opened Just that thoy might glance nt and ndmlro the barbaric splendor or tlio Chinese court And then thero was n pause, during which the Intruders looked less nt tho valuables and moro at each other. Ono man would lltt up a costly Jade ornament or n flno piece or sllverwork, study It, glance fur lively around, ro-oxamlne It with a blush lay It down In a half-sbamcfaced, half regretful way and movo on to another drawer. Then he would return to tho first and begin theso rites over ngaln. Ono gentleman had only Just turned his back for a second on a most artistic nnd ancient piece of Jadowork nnd was coming back to ndmlro It once more, when ho saw it dls appear In tho sldo pocket of another, who remarked with a diplomatist's euphemism- One cannot got without a souvenir.' That word souvenir wns tho formula which every ono had been seeking for. Once found, thuy nil brenthed and plundered freely. Kach ono wnnted n souvenir, and, as thero was llttlo tlmo to pick and choose, ho took n number of articles homo for Inspection, Tho full tide of looting had now set In and could no longer bo stemmed, even by tho sturdiest of thoso who wero wont to bo honest In tho daylight nnd virtuous In tho presence of u crowd.' An olllcer or high rank, coining In. shook his hoad sadly, but exclaimed hopefully enough: 'Gentlemen, no looting, please. Kach one may tako a llttlo souvenir, but nothing more.' Hut coolies cnrrylng coals to stenmors In Hong Kong could not be moro expeditious than was this respectable gathering of military and civil oflliials In stowing nway tho moat unwieldy vessels, tmngos nnd ornaments between their conts and their skins. It was very conilcnl to boo self-respecting Indi viduals, their features serious and solemn, whllo their bodies wero no monstrously mis shappeu that oven ns gargoyles they would havo been Impossible. Ono otticer left with what many fancied rau3t bo a lady's tour nure. expanded by the1 heat to nlnrmlng dimensions. Ills frleuds explained after ward that the protuberance was caused by n magnificent vessel of old china, which ho In somo mysterious way secreted on his person." Tho peculiar horrors, of this war the au thor certainly does not exaggerate. U may be questioned, howevor, whether ho does not see the Manchu dynasty und tho Chinese In n more amiable light than they descrvo. Tho matter resolves Itsolf Into this; If China does not respect tho lives of tho foreign representatives or of tho Americans or Europeans who dwell within her confines, she must be made to do bo. This general rule holds good for Dahomey or China. The conclusion of this remark able article Is as follows; "China has never meddled In European affairs, never given tho powers any Just cnuso of complaint. In fact, her chief sin consists In her obstinate refusal to put her self In a state to do cither. She Is not en croaching upon the territory of others, al though her population hns become too nu merous for her own. Her only desire Is to be left, as she leaves others, lu peace. She has a right to this Isolation. Russia allows no foreign missionaries to convert her peo ple. To tnduco n Russian subject to aban don his church for rrotestnntlsm or Cath olicism Is a crime, punlshablo by law. Why should a similar act not be similarly la beled and treated In China? It Is, of course, useless to expect the powers to change their line of action, nut It Is hardly too much to nsk that the press should modify its language describing It. Why should cultured and more or less truth-loving peo ples persist In speaking of tho glorious work of civilizing China, when It Is evident that thoy are ruining her people nnd de moralizing their own troops besides? Tho futuro historian will nnd It dlfilcult to ex plain how It camo about that tho freo Christian peoples, whoso generous blood boiled with Indignation against tho high handed action of the Drltlsh in South Africa, were at tho very same tlmo enthusi astic In their praise of tha 'good work dono' by the bravo troops In China. "The nollcy of tho powers la a sowing of tho wind, nnd the harvest reaped will surely bo the whirlwind. Hut that belongs to tho 'music of tho future.' " A ltUY.lt. l'UXKI.OlM I'repnmtlmin for tlir MiirrlnKe of Uio Uiircu of llolinnu. Tho young royal bride to be, Queen Wll- hilmlna Paulino Helen Mnrlo of Holland, hau had almost ns many suitors ns Fene- lono herself. For every royal house in Europe, except Roman Catholic famines, that had n marriageable prince to offer has had designs upon Wllhclmlna's heart nnd hand. bill approving tho queen's marriage has been presented In thu states general, but tho question of an allowance to her nrosncctlvo husband will not bo raised Tho question of precedence has not yet been settled and whether the prlnz general wnlks beforo tho quceu dowager or follows niter both his wife and his mother-in-law is yet on unsettled question. It Is. by tho way, to "King" Wllhelmlna, not "queen," that offlclals and other pub lic servants take tho oath or allegiance, This was decided upou somo tlmo ago by tho Dutch High Court of Justice and was In lino with Queen Emma's wishes. "I deslro to make Queen Wllhelmlna somo thlnir bolter than a strong woman. I wish to mnko her a king." The nuptial ceremonies will last n week nnd will tako place at Amsterdam instead of Tho Hague, tho palaco of tho former bo lug thu moro commodious. Tho throno room Is ono of the magnificent npartmonts of tho world, with Its superb marblo col umns and crystal chandeliers of near 400 lights. Tho throno Itself Is covered with ruby velvet und edged with ruby and gold fringe: the back is surmounted by a crown containing sapphires, with Hons in support another crowu and tho letter " Is wrought on tho velvet Just beneath. The front of tho chair Is a footstool to match tho canonv. The ennony Is curtained In ruby velvet, with gold cord; It Is sur mounted by a crown and ostrich plumes; on tho Inner center are embroidered tho royal nrms and motto, "Jo Malntlen Dral." The stylo of the ball room Is empire. with a smnll French plnno nt ono end, whllo crimson nnd gold nro tho colors. Tho order for her wedding gown tho ouecn Iins given to mo women oi mo School of Art Needlework in Amsterdam, who so successfully embroidered her cor onation robes. Ono of her bnll gowns will bo of white- satin, embroidered nil ovor with forgot-mo-nots In silver and pale blue. Tho women of several different prov inces will present their queen with national costumes. That of Frlcsland. tho gift of 8.000 women, Is described .is quaint, If not Btrlctly graceful, with Its amplitude of drapery and silver hair ornamontB. Tho gold and silver ornaments for tho queen's headdress aro preserved among tho crown Jewels ns tho property of tho nation. Up to tho tlmo sho wns 12 years old the llttlo queen was dressed entirely In v.hlto, even to her llttlo kid shoes and silk stock Ings. Tho queen hns always dressed very simply. Indocd thero Is a Btory that Bho often wears i "InBt season" hat, nnd moreover, ono trimmed over by hor own royal lingers. "Ah plain as tho queen of Holland's petticoat" Is a byword with certain young American girl, who camo ncross tho two queens a few years ngo when they wore "doing" London In a quiet wny. Doth queens woro very plain stout shoes, nnd tho uplifted dresses revealed white petticoats absolutely devoid of trim mlng of any kind. Tho queen dowager has always been simple lu her habits. On ono occasion when sho visited an empress her entire suite much to tho surprise ot tho empress consisted only of an aged chamberlain and a lady ot honor. Upon occasions the queen dowager has even travelod second class, preferring to do so on account of meeting, although less elegant, far more Interesting peoplo. Nor Is thu etiquette of tho Dutch court rigid, tho queen being qulto accessible t the people. Persons wishing to pay their rcscects call at the palace about flvo day previous, write their names In a book kept for that purpose, and If thero is no reason for their exclusion, they nre admitted upon the specified dny. In tho matter of retainers nnd attendants thcro has never been grent amount of pomp nnd circumstance No rulor In tho world attends moro strictly to her duties than Queen Wll helmlna. Sho Is biiBy every day with th matters which her ministers lay beforo her and with tho affairs ot her court. Sho hns Bald ot herself that she nover plays but always works. These concerns, which wo might rashly consider to bo her pleas ures her receptions and stato banquets nre, In fnct. her Irksome duties. Durln the "season" sho is bouud to notice, with exactly equal nttentlou, each one of the 400 or 500 persons of tho court. Noto Is kopt of theso courtesies and of tho orde In which she pays them and sho has punc tllloujly to ncqult herself or tho whole duty down to tho properly timid nnd measured chat with tho last diplomat and his wile before tha close of the last levee. The youug queen is not beautiful, but very good to look upon wholesome and frank, with a pleasant smile for ovcryono Sho has blue eyes, a clear complexion, Grecian nose; her forehead Is broad and rather high and her teeth cro large, whit nnd oven; her blondo hair, which Is sll"htly wavy, Is brushed back to show the "orango ear." Sho has a well shaped bead and slender, graceful flguro, with a queenly bearing. Sho inherits her father's taste for music- he onco wrote un opera which was much praised, at least by friends. Her education having been conducted In tho most cor servntlvo Dutch faihlon, it follows that she Is thoroughly versed in domestic science, knowing how to cook and sew; sho also em broiders beautifully.

It has been supposed that salads woro only salads when made with green vego- V"My combination with other things nnd necessarily served very cold Lately somo ono has suggested hot salads which wero considered ns the "dernier crl" and nn entirely novel combination. How ever, the Dutch in old New York, and per haps beforo that in Holland, served a hot salad.

Pills, salts and black draughts arc dangerous because they strain and weaken the bowels. What you want is a mild but sure tonic laxative, that tones and strengthens the bowels and stimulates their movements. Such a laxative is CASCARETS, and when you try them, you will find that it is the easiest thing in the world to make and keep your bowels clean and regular, strong and healthy.

It seems qulto probable thnt the settlers of Now Amsterdam would bo unnblu to recognize this modern version, but without doubt thoy would rippreclnto the dlsb, ns they were ever known ns lovers of good cookery. A snlad uhlch seems well lilted for a winter luncheon tilth Is a Creole salad, which Is prepared In this way: Hull ono nnd ono-hnlf cups of rlco In salted water; drain well nnd season with salt, whlto pepper uud cayenne. Cut three green pep pers nnd three boiled beets Into dice nbout thu size of the rice grulns. Chop one onion very flno nnd ndd with the peppers nud beets to the rice; mix and season with three teaspoonfuls of vine gar nnd six teaspoonfuls of oil. Chill thor oughly and servo In green peppers from which tho IdbIiIu pulp has been removed. Pile tho salad high over tlio tops of the peppers. The whlto rice, brilliant red ot thn beets and the deep, rich green of tho peppers make a charming color combina tion. Tlio winter luncheon Is thu most sultnblo plnco for tho heavier meat snlnds which should not bo served lu hot weather nnd nro too heavy for dinner salads. Served here, a salad of this description may well form tho plecq do resistance of tho meal. They have, too, their economical side, for left-overs may bn utilized. A salad mude from cold pork chops or roast pork, com bluod with celery, olives, lettuce and muj nnnulso dressing, Is dollclous und Is some times mistaken for chlckcu salad. Cold veal may bo used In tho sumo way. In small families tho roasted fowl some times hnngs on for days, and after a fow appearances thn members of tho family nro npt to compnro It to tho phoenix, tho bird of resurrection. This Is especially truo of tho Christmas or Thanksgiving tur key. One way of disguising this family friend Is by making Into salad. Cold duck makes an especially flno salad combined with fruits. Ono cup of cold duck meat cut Into small cubes, ono orango cut Into small pieces, with tho while part rejected, nnd ono npplo cut Into dice. Doll one-half cup walnuts for threo minutes In meat stock, to whlcli has been added ono bay leaf, two allspice, two cloves and two peppcrcorus. Drain wulnuts, cut Into small pieces and mix with tho other Ingredients. Squeeze ovor nil the Julco of one-fourth of n lemon. Servo on Icttuco leaves or young celery tips. Onrnlsh with wnlnuts nud orango sections after mixing salad with nioyou nalso dressing. Another hot salad may be made of potato, nnd, If desired, may be made at tha table In the clmllng dish. To muku this, ono pint of boiled potato cubes are required, Chop together one teiispnonful ench of onion anil of pickled cucumbers or green tomatoes. In the chaflug dish heal two tiiblespoonfulB of butter or salAd oil, ndd tho chopped onion and plcklo nnd cook until tho onion Is of a light yellow color. Sprinkle ono teaspoonful of salt and oue snltspoonful of popper over tho potato cubes. To tho pickle und onion lu tha dish ndd n level teaspoonful of flour, cook a minute, then add tho potatoes nnd toss about until nil molsturn Is absorbed; then add threo tablespuonfuls of vinegar und two beaten eggs; mix well. Sprinkle wholo with parsley, chopped lino, nnd cook tho eggs quickly over tho hot water pan. With theso salads grilled bread, bread or cheeso sticks may bo served. Thin bread and butter sandwiches aro good, or sand wiches in ado piquant by tho addition of n llttlo chopped Canton ginger and tho rich syrup with it.
