AN AWE-INSPIRING SPECTACLE ARMY OF CITIZENS FIGHTING THE FLAMES. Highland Springs Has a Very Nar- row Escape—Deer Hunters Held Responsible for the De- vastation. Special Dispatch to The Call. LAKEPORT, Aug. 1.—For nearly a week past fierce fires have been raging in the mountains west of town, denud- | ing them of brush and timber. Last Friday four of the fires ran together and created such a terrible conflagra- tion that all of the available men in this vicinity were called to Highland Springs to help fight it. There was also a large delegation from - Kelseyville. The men commenced back. firing, ex- tending over an area of several miles in length, and were successful in break- ing the force of the fire.. Had it not been for assistance that great resort would have undoubtedly been burned. Another fire is now threatening Big Valley and the farmers are plowing the outside of their fields and then plow- ing another strip parallel a few feet | from the other and burning the stub- ble between. This fire has destroyed all the timber in Manning’s { Canyon and burned several ranchers out. One man alone, Peter Boggs, lost several thousand dollars’ worth of tim- ber. Still another fire i$ raging northwest of town in the:vicinity of Cow Moun- tain, It startéd in Mendocino County, and has been burning for a week. These fires are all supposed to have been started by hurters who do it to drive out the deer..One of the sus- pects is being hunted for by the offi- cers, and if captured and proved guilty it will go hard with him, as the people ‘will stand no nonsense. The atmosphere is full of smoke and the sun is nearly obscured. It resem- bles a high fog in the bay region. The heat is terrific and does not abate much at night.

VICTORIA, B. C., Aug. 1.—According to news received in a private letter by the steamship Tacoma, the insurrection in China is still spreading. Nine new towns are reported-to have been.cap- tured and placards are appearing de- claring war upon the Chinese officials, who are classed as “the curse of China.” The rebels are most barbarous, ‘worse enemies to civilization than even the Chinese authorities. They are eaid to be reviving the Tai-Ping watch- words. The Tai-Pings were ‘a set of bloodthirsty savages wilose efforts were crushed by Gordon and his “ever victorious army.” It is reported that the rebels in the lower kwangs of Can- ton consist of Black Flags and An- namites, the latter being ‘trained sol- diers who have deserted from the French forces. They are led by for- eigners. Six gunboats have been dispatched from Canton with 3000 Manchu troops, who are to march overland to -Mu- Chan. Great excitement prevails at Canton. The authorities have bought 8000 rifles and are negotiating for ma- chine. guns. According 1o news re- ceived the day before the Tacoma’s de- parture the rebels have defeated the imperial troops and 1000 bodies have been taken from the river and burfed at Wu-Chau. The imperial losses were very. great. * At Canten it is said that Dr.. Sun Yatsen, whose detention at the Chinese Legation in London attractéd much at- tention some time ago, is one of the Tebel leaders. The kidnaping of Dr. Sun Yatsen by emissaries of the Chi- nese Government 4nd his illegal deten- tion in the Chinese Legation in London occurred in October, 1896. The doctor is an energetlc member of the “Young China Society,” and took part in a rev- olutionary attempt on the city of Can- ton In October, 1895. The attempt failed and the doctor got away to Ma- cao, whence he went to England. Ten days after his arrival, while walking on the streets of London, he was accosted by a number of China- men, who lured him into the Legation. There he remained for eleven days, the design of the authorities being to ship him off secretly to China, where, ac- cording to the statements of the Chi- nese, he was to be boiled in oil. One of the servants of the Legation managed to communicate the intelligence of the outrage to the doctor's friends. The Foreign Office at once demanded the prisoner’s release, and on October 22 Sun Yatsen was'set at ‘liberty. He passed through here on his way to China on the Empress steamer about a year ago, and according to local Chi- nese gave out then that on ‘his return he would cause his. gountry to rebel against the lmm 1 pow Elections to the.
