A detailed clash at Taku forts shows British, Italian, and Japanese landing parties breaching northern batteries. Forts sustain heavy shell damage while Algerine and German gunboats press the river fight. Casualties include several killed and wounded on both sides as the allied forces secure the forts by midmorning.
A fragmented 19th century sketch describes the Yangtze River city near the Pyra maid hills, detailing superstitions about evil spirits from Feng-ebal lore, a sacrificed Christian church, and a ring-fenced Chinese village system. It notes Shanghail as a wild, bustling port with ships, factories, and a pervasive Chinese odor of oil and incense, illustrating a clash of ritual and modern industry.
L K Hillard of Iowa recently arrived in Washington and declares the old saying that he has “heard the corn grow.” He praises Iowa corn sizes and stalk thickness, noting ears up to substantial lengths and the need to split stalks to feed fodder, reflecting rural pride in field yields.
An elder camp of King Humbert speaks of a dinner where an officer kept at hand to fill seats. The king grows angry, insisting the officer stay seated, while the orderly role seems unnecessary and senseless to him.
A reminiscence on General Chaffee’s career from captain to major general in China, with anecdotes about his horse, ambitions, and staff roles. The piece then surveys wartime prayer traditions, citing Lincoln era clergy and Highland regiments, and ends with a Naval anecdote of a lenient court martial after a chaplain’s bench scene.
The piece contrasts grand fields of battle with a gritty, heat shattered modern front. It depicts combat as dirt covered and relentless, machines roaring, and soldiers caught in endless bombardment. In a different note, it notes Parisians spending 120,000 annually on confetti.
