James A.' WetM of Danvn, Va.,
arrived in Salisbury Wednesday morn
ing. He took life unconcernedly until
arrival of the local from the North,
when he became all eyes. He didn't
have to look long, however, for the ob
ject of his search had her face against
the car window and she, with a look of
dismay, saw the gentleman-from: Dan
ville board the car. It was only the
work of a moment, and when he emerg
ed from the car a girl in shod top
dresses and an abashed looking youth
followed him. The Sun says: "In con
versation with Mr. Weeks I learned
that the girl was his daughter, that
she was fourteen years old and that she
left home last night in company with
the young man, who himself is but
nineteen. They had tickets to Fort
'Mill, S. C, and intended marrying
Pekin, February 5. The Chinese pleni
potentiaries, Prince Ching and. Li Hung
Chang, had a protracted meeting this
morning with the foreign envoys. Twelve
names of prominent Chinese officials were
submitted, with the request that China
keep faith with the powers and punish
the persons named commensurately with
their offenses.
The Chinese plenipotentiaries replied
that China's earnest hope was to carry
out fully the demands of the powers, anJ
that she felt sure the punishment which
will be inflicted would be satisfactory. It
was discovered that two out of twelve oi
the persona raciod were already dead.
In certain ecsea the Chinese plenipoten
tiaries gave readers why the punishment
inflicted should l.e rc-iishment and noi
death, assertirsr tha; Iri tuese cases thej
particularly detire-J 1 ar.l; invent only be
cause the persons p.'-tlcn were

potentiaries for definite action.
Li Hung Chang, who is very weak frc
his recent illness, had to be carried in ar;
out of the British legation. He is unabii
to walk, but his head seems as clear a
ever.
The foreign envoys were impressed wiv
the evident desire of both Prince Chin
and Li Hung Chang to come to term"
Prince Ching: asked whether, provMe!

leave Fc-kin. The foreign envoys rerTt-'j
that this was a subject they could not di
cuss beyond saying that, if every thin i
were satisfactory they believed the pow
ers would begin to withdraw the troo??
early in the coming Spring, but that th?:
depended largely upon the Chinese them
selves. Prince Ching and Li Hung Chang sai-'
they desired to know the names of th"
places where guards would be kept fc;
the purpose of maintaining communica
tion with the sea, in accordance with th'
terms of the joint note. They were in
formed that this was a subject regarding
which the military authorities had mor-i
accurate knowledge than the envoys, bul
that at pfcVaeT.t no determination had beer
reached. Prince Ching was anxious te
know what provision would be made t:
control the legation guards and to pre
vent them from disturbing business. H(
asked if the guards would be allowed ovci
all parts of the city.
To this inquiry the reply was given th.tJ
the guards would certainly not be allowec
to interfere with any avocations of thf
Ch'nese, but would be merely kept tr
guard the legations in case of necessity
Prince Ching was assured that, in what
ever part of the city the legation guard?
might go they would be required to con
form to laws which would be agreed upon
under pain of severe punishment for an?
infraction.
The Chinese plenipotentiaries alsc
touched upon the question of the forts
asking if it would be necessary to destroy
these. As there seemed to be some di
versity of opinion among the foreign en
voys regarding this matter, it was lef 1
over until the question of punishment has
been definitely decided.

and Merriam and General Chali'ee ai-
is advanced over those two ciaeers, ...
well as over Generals MacArthur an.
Ludlow and fifty-four colonels who ha
higher relative rank than he in th
regular army.
The action in the case of Genera.
Chaffee is accepted in military circi"?
its an indication that he is to be placed
in supreme command or tne militarj
forces in the Philippines and that Gen
erals Young and MacArthur are to be
relieved shortly and assigned to duty
in the United States.
The law provides for six major-gen
erals and the promotion of Major-Gen
eral Miles leaves another vacancy in
that grade, which, it is generally un
derstood, will be filled by the appoint
ment of Brigadier-General J. F. Wade,
the senior officer of his grade. There is
till one vacancy in the list of Briga-
2ier-Generals and another will be made
by the retirement of General Schwan
svho is said to be in failing health. Col
onel Daggett, of the Fourteenth Infan
try, who has just returned to Sa?:
Francisco from gallant service ii
China, is booked for appointment as c
brigadier-general. It Is expected tha;
ne will be retired immediately.
Secretary Root said this afternooi
that the military appointments' mad-to-day
did not involve necessarily an;
change of commands in the Philippine-:
and that there is no purpose of reliev
ng General MacArthur of the suprem-.
:ommand of that division in the imme
diate future. Generals Wade and Lui
low, who recently were ordered to f"
Philippines, will relieve Generals Youn
and Bates, who have served in tho
:ountry for over two years.
The War Department announce-
'Promotions will be made to the gr;;r;
3f first lieutenant in the regular arr.:
Df all second lieutenants in that ar.,..
svhose commissions antedate the v:
svith Spain. These promotions will c.T"
ry up all officers in the regulars v;
have had longer service than volur
teers, but will still leave vacancies l
volunteer second lieutenants."
The War Department calls attenli
o tne tact tnat tne oraer or senior;
jf the general officers appointed to-C
.s determined by the dates in F'-bru,
stated in the nomination. Thus, f.
?ral Young, being nominated as of Fo
ruary 2d, Chaffee as of the 4th ;
MacArthur as e,f the 5th, will ta
precedence in that order wherever tl.
meet. General Wood being named :.
a Brigadier-General as of the 4th
ranked by Bates, Wheaton, Davis ar
Schwan, and poesibly by Sumner, tl
latter being nominated as of the sai:
?ate. But it is pointed out at the tit
partment that one result of Genera
Wood's nomination in this order woui.
be, in tne event that he follows ir
regular order of promotion hereafter
to make him Lieutenant-General of th.
United States army for fourteen year.
General Wood now stands No. 60 in th
list of army captains. Captain J
Franklin Bell, who is No. 585 in the li::
of captains, relative rank, was nom
mated to be a full Brigadier'-Genera:

t6 Cancer.
Cancer often results from an is
parity in the tolood, inherited from
generations back. Few people are en
tirely free from some taint in the blood,
and it is impossible to teU when it will,
break oat in the form of dreaded Can
cer. What has appeared to be a mere
pimple or scratch has developed into
the most malignant Cancer.
"I had a severe Cancer which was at first
only a few blotches, that 1 thought would
Boon pass away, x was
treated by several able
physicians, but in spite
of their efforts the Can
cer spread until my con
dition became alarming.
After many months of
treatment and growing
steadily worse, I de
cided to try 8. S. S.
which was so strongly
recommended. The first
