Noakes, who was captured near the border line of Virginia and taken by force to Frankfort and from there to Georgetown to testify to the details of the conspiracy, is a typical mountain railway man. For minuteness of detail and the working of small incidents into the geil eral s\ory his testimony has not beeti equaled since the trial of Powers was be gun, and the prosecution has regained all of the ground lost by the breaking down of the testimony of Finley Anderson. Noakes* story was of great dramatic interest. Step by Btep the prosecution led him to relate his actions oil those trying days just before the fatal »Jfku. 30.

The Beit day more re-enforceltifeHts arrived, aud a fierce i«He and artillery duel was kept up all day. The Chinese, who previously numbered 8,000, were re-enforced on July 17. Colonel Gribsky concentrated a portion of his force toga Inst Sakhalin, where there were 7,000 Chinese artillerymen. After a short resistance he routed them and oc» cupied the town. A Change of Attitude. Captain Slocum will leave for Paris today and will return after a short sojourn at the exposition to his post in Lisbon, where he will prepare two reports to Washington, one covering the operations subsequent to the fall of Pretoria, the other dealing with the entire campaign.The change of attitude toward the Chinese on the part of some of the returned missionaries Is almost pathetic. At the beginning of the Boxer outbreak nearly all who bad spent some time In China agreed that the disorders would soon blow over, provided the Christian nations were to send a few ships to Chinese Waters and land a few troops on Chinese soil. Unless this were done, they agreed, there might be serious results, but the yellow men of the Celestial empire would soon lose all their courage at sight of a small number of war vessels and a limited force of fighting men. Tbe News is Generally Regarded as Authentic, Noakes testified that, both John and Caleb Powers had been on the hunt foi cartridges with smokeless powder and that he had been asked to assist them in getting what they wished, only to be told later by John Powers that he could himself get all that he wished and that it was no use for Noakes to worry furthei about it.

"Why," said one very prominent professor in a Peking institution of framing* "the .Chinaman Is nothing but a human sheep. He will bully and bluster when he Is sure that no opposition" is to be expected, but let there lDe the least show of force, and he will run away like a scared rubblt There is nothing more comical than the sight of a lot of Chinese soldiers drilling. They have no Idea of discipline, they do not know how to aim their guns, and they aqe so superstitious that the flight of a bird which they believe of evil omen over an Advancing army would be sufficient to cause the turning and flight of thousands of armed men in a very panic of fear.

Hundreds of men are working night and day to check tin progress of the flames, but as the byisb is as dry as tinder and as the flames jump first one way and then another they are almost helpless. Several instances nre known where large gangs of men by a qfoiqk shjft, of {lie wind were entirely surrounded by the flames, and none escaped without u bad scorching. At a late honr Inst night the flames were traveling through some of the heaviest timber standing ou the Cape fast as a uiau can walk, and the excitement is intense in all the surrounding towns, as it is not known at what shift of the wind the flames will sweep some settlement out ol existence. "Besides, they have no arms worthy of the name, and what they do possess are useless. All China is honeycombed with corruption, and, in my opinion. It would be hard to And any number of big guns In any of the Chinese forts that are In condition to be fired.

The little Cuban girl's parents and relatives had all died Cuba from fever, leaving vast property to her. Rich as she was. she had no one to care foi her. Francis Atwater of Merlden, Conn., financial agent of the Red Cross society, brought the child to this country to be adopted in the home of William G. Hooker of Meriden. The Hookers had already made other arrangements "and Mr. Atwater turned the child over to the County Home in New Haven, which, according to strict rules, bound her out to do housework. Miss Alvarez, a Cuban, interested herself in the child's welfare and wrote to General Wood. "Send her home/' wrote the governor, "and I promise to in vestigate personally."

It Is hardly necessary to say that this man has changed his views most radically within the past few days. He now agrees, with many others, that the troubles of the past few weeks are as nothing to what may expected in the future, and his horror at the situation is excessive, because the victims Include a number of his closest friends and acquaintances. It may be added that, like most returned missionaries, this man, whose name it would not be fair to mention.

The Beit day more re-enforceltifeHts arrived, aud a fierce i«He and artillery duel was kept up all day. The Chinese, who previously numbered 8,000, were re-enforced on July 17. Colonel Gribsky concentrated a portion of his force toga Inst Sakhalin, where there were 7,000 Chinese artillerymen. After a short resistance he routed them and oc» cupied the town. A Change of Attitude. Captain Slocum will leave for Paris today and will return after a short sojourn at the exposition to his post in Lisbon, where he will prepare two reports to Washington, one covering the operations subsequent to the fall of Pretoria, the other dealing with the entire campaign.The change of attitude toward the Chinese on the part of some of the returned missionaries Is almost pathetic. At the beginning of the Boxer outbreak nearly all who bad spent some time In China agreed that the disorders would soon blow over, provided the Christian nations were to send a few ships to Chinese Waters and land a few troops on Chinese soil. Unless this were done, they agreed, there might be serious results, but the yellow men of the Celestial empire would soon lose all their courage at sight of a small number of war vessels and a limited force of fighting men. Tbe News is Generally Regarded as Authentic, Noakes testified that, both John and Caleb Powers had been on the hunt foi cartridges with smokeless powder and that he had been asked to assist them in getting what they wished, only to be told later by John Powers that he could himself get all that he wished and that it was no use for Noakes to worry furthei about it.

Hundreds of men are working night and day to check tin progress of the flames, but as the byisb is as dry as tinder and as the flames jump first one way and then another they are almost helpless. Several instances nre known where large gangs of men by a qfoiqk shjft, of {lie wind were entirely surrounded by the flames, and none escaped without u bad scorching. At a late honr Inst night the flames were traveling through some of the heaviest timber standing ou the Cape fast as a uiau can walk, and the excitement is intense in all the surrounding towns, as it is not known at what shift of the wind the flames will sweep some settlement out ol existence. "Besides, they have no arms worthy of the name, and what they do possess are useless. All China is honeycombed with corruption, and, in my opinion. It would be hard to And any number of big guns In any of the Chinese forts that are In condition to be fired.
