END OF THE TRAGEDY The final act of the tragedy came on the night of July 6. Finding that Prince Ching was furnishing ammunition * to the besieged foreigners in the British Compound, Prince Tuan, the leader of the Boxers, ordered his men to fire on the Imperial troops. A terrible battle ensued in the streeets of the Imperial city Prince Ching was wounded and carried from the fight. Gen. Wang Wen Shao, his gray-haired aid, was killed, in the bud the silghtest tendency toward retaliation on Chinamen.

Tuan ordered another advance ‘on the Christians. Again his thousands were beaten back by that heroic hand- ful of white men. It was past midnight when the Boxers ceased firing to drag their dead from the street, comeeption of the power behind tne for- | % colgn diplomats, and if the Bnvoys have fallen into their hands they were prob. ably treated in the most ignoble and hortitle manner, An infuriated Chinese mob has one wreat dea; to Cut off @ head and stick it on a pole, WHAT HAVE WE DONE?

Then every . white man died fighting to the last. The Boxers rushed into the compound. They mutilated the bodies of women and men, fired the wrecked buildings and ‘roasted alive those who had escaped slaughter or torture. Somewhere between Peking. and Tientsin are two wounded and starving Christian missionaries, the sole sur- vivors of the massacre. They escaped by the rear of the Le- gation while the carnage was at its height and gained the outer walls. Their story, if they live to teil it, will be un- paralleled in the annals of human cruelty. A RIOT OF FIENDISHNESS, It will tell of a feat of arms more glorious than Ther- mopylae, that ended in a ‘viot of Oriental fiendishness and savagery. There were not three hundred men all told in the inclo- sure of the British Legation, but for three weeks they kept at bay 100,000 Boxers. Day after day they made sorties. Their trained fighting methods wrought deadly hanoc to the Boxers. The Mongolians learned to fear them, and de- sertions from the Bovers’ ranks to Prince Ching’s army » were growing numerous. Learning that Prince Ching, in command of the Imperial troops, was supplying ammunition to the besieged Chris- Wans, Tuan, the rebel leader, determined to wipe them out. Me crdered Gen. Tung Fuh Stang to attack the Legation. Ten thou- gand Boxers were thrown about the compound. ‘ ao by hunger and the sight of Impending death, the Legation guards male a desperate sortie.

The Boxers were divided into three p.werful columns. Heavy guns were trained on the walls of the compound. The shells tore great breaches in the walls; the buildings ia the ‘nolosure were wrecked. The Christiane fought on. THE CHINESE ADVANCF. The Chinese advanced in heavy formation, firing continuous volleys. They would reach the broken walls only to be swept back again by the ac- curate fre of the defenders. When the dead heaped about the walls made Qn aesault impossible the Boxers retired for the time. The attacks on the Legation were kept up throughout the night. Every assault was iepuised by the heroic defenders. At cuybreak Tuan summoned Gen.
