Mr. Denby, who when tho foreign troops
arrived wns appointed by the China Mer

the company In Its claim against tho United
States government docs not uo the word
"lost" against tho marines, but merely
holds them responsible. The greater part of
tho company's property consisted of rice,
which was afterward distributed under or
ders from the British and Ametu.i. fteu
crals to assist these In net.. ?tr. Denby
thinks the company's claim should be added
to tho Indemnity as legitimate expenditure.
Other Chlnn merchants say the company
had 3,000 taels worth of property here.
It la pointed out that tho company stored
three boxes of valunbles with the char
tered company and that It Is quite unlikely
that any Jewels wero left to bo looted.
Moreover, tho place was gono over by
local looters before the allies arrived. It
will bo legally Impossible to hold any por
tion of the relieving forces responsible
for anything but the ilce and coal, which
wero used as a military necessity to feed
Chinese coolies who were forced to labor
and these who wero without means of
livelihood.

slon naphtha. Tho article declares that
Secretary Gage's measure was "manifestly
designed ns a reprisal," adding that this
position Is strengthened by the fact that
Article C2$ had never previously been so
construed. It asserts also that Mr. Gage
did not mention Roumanian naphtha, which
Is likewise Imported Into Great Britain.
Tho contention, therefore, Is that Russia's
answer In raising tho duties on blcyclus
and rosin Is Justified.
NEED REFORMJN UNIFORMS
Major John n. Kttrny OfTerM n Hew

OMAHA. Juno 2'J. To the Hdltor rf The
Dee: The writer has resided In Omnna
about thirty-five years anil during that
time wo have all witnessed some strange
nnd unnecnuntnble changes.
Then it woman would not nppenr In so
ciety unless robed In a "hooped skirt" nnd
a man who did not wear boots summer
and winter was erfemlnate.
Now It Is safe to nay thnt there It not
o hooprklrt for sale In nny store In Ne
braska and of tho tlrst 10,() men you
meet, not more than nno wears boots, and
wliv? Knots nml hnnnaklrts are rum!" r-
somo nnd more expensive nnd very much
less comfortable, hence the Intelligent pub
lic all over tho land have discarded their
use.
That reform Is now establlrfhed and It Is
well.
We have, however, pome crude habits that
hecm to have come down to us from the
ancients. In the matter of uniform.
A uniform Is it form of garment which
designates tho employment of the war r.
For Instance. If, when the thermometer
registers 10) degrees, wo eo n big, stroir;
appearing man, carrying n locust eltih In
his hand and wenrlng 11 double-bren t'd
blue coat of the purest heavy wool, with a
similarly constructed vtct and pants, In
all weighing from eleven to fourteen
pounds, we nre Informed by his uniform
that such n person Is a police officer.
When we sec a man on the street cars
with a badge and his winter clothes (all
wool nnd heavy) with his badge In s'ght
wo nre Informed that such a person 1
either the motorman or conductor of the
ftrcct car company, and, a'thouch the pub
lic deeply sympathize with these poor,
good, faithful servants ns we note their
itufferlng from being compelled to wear
theso needlessly heavy garments, simply
and solely to prescrvo the dignity of being
"In uniform while on duty" wo do be
lieve that much, yes, very much, ran bo
done to promote the comfort of theo peo
ple by modifying tho form of the summer
uniforms,
For Instance, nllow the police ofllcers to
dispense with tho heavy coat and vest
nnd Htipply their place with some light,
cheap wool garment, made In similar form
and color for nil ami carrying their badges
of offlee This would contribute Im
mensely toward their personal comfort and
tletract nothing whatever from their use
fulness nnd designation as ofllccrs,
Similarly for tho street car people; why
cannot they ho permitted to abandon their
heavy blue coats and vests nnd woar a
simple shirtwaist, all of a uniform mnkn
nnd color? This will spare theso faithful,
good men, much suffering and possibly
money ns well, ns such 11 garment made of
washgoods, would cot but little per Kiir
ment and could bo Docketed to supply per
fectly their needs and Itr uniformity of
color nnd their badge would glvo n'l the
designation and dignity of the. swtlterlng
All over the world Schlitz beer is known and is the standard.
In Vladivostock, Pretoria, Shanghai, Singapore, Bombay, Cairo
and Constantinople it is the beer of civilization.
Schlitz beer has won the world's markets by its reputation for
purity, maintained for half a century. Wherever white men live
Schlitz beer is acknowledged the pure beer. Our pledge to you
and our pledge to all nations is that never will a bottle of Schlitz
beer go out until we have insured its purity; never a bottle
insufficiently aged.
Schlitz beer, wherever you find it, is healthful; it is
