China's capital is spelled two
ways in the dispatches now com
ing from that country?some
limes it is Pekin and sometimes
)ls Peking.
Mr. Bryan honored David B.
Hill with an invitation to Lincoln
for a conference and Mr. Hill
promptly accepted and went, but
the conference did not result in

on the ticket. At any rate, that
is the impression that has gone
out since the conference. If it is
not liill or Mr. Suler, the New
York congressman, who is said to
he so eager for the position, it
may be Chas. A. Towue of Min
nesota.
A desperate state of affairs is
revealed by the cablegrams from
China. Some idea may be obtained
from the following from
Admiral Kempff at Chee Foo to
the Washington authorities. It is
?b follows: "A rumor from Pekin
reports legations are besieged;
' provisions nearly exhausted; sit
uation desperate. German minister
going to Tsung Li Yamen
murdered by Chinese soldiers.
American, Italian and Dutch le
nations burned. Twenty thousand
Chinese soldiers inside, thirty
thousand outside of Pekin ; three
inousanu reported bound tor Hen
Tsin ; still fighting at Tien Tsin.
Communication with Tien Tsin
by rail and river insecure.'*
JOS. WYLIE OF CHESTER.
* Clone ot a Most Remarkable and
Useful Career.
Chester, July 2.?Again Ches
ler is caiied upon to mourn the
death of one of her oldest, best
and most highly respected citizens,
Joseph Wylie is dead. lie
passed to his eternal reward this
. morning, surrounded by his faithful
servants, his loving niece and
a circle of his closest friends and
business associates. He was in
i ne it in year oi ins age and today
closes a life that was full of
hard work, industry and many
noble, patriotic and benevolent
deeds.
Mr. Wylie was born in York
county and at the age of 12 years
he came to Lewisville, Chester
county, where he first embarked
in his chosen avocation, that of
merchandizing. After clerking
a number of years he went into
business under the firm name of
Wylie & Moffatt. Several years
later the name of the firm was
changed to Wylie & Roddy. Just
after the war, having passed
through the Confederacy as a pri
vate, he came to Chester and entered
business with Capt. Roddy,
now of Rock Hill, and Capt C.
J. L. Agurs of this city. The firm
was soon changed to Wylie <fc
Agurs, and in 1885 it was again
changed to the present firm of
Joseph Wylie Co. This firm
Has done a most prosperous business
since under the guidance of
Mr. Wylie's wise and conservative
direction. In 1890, largoly under
liis influence, the Exchange bank
was organized, and he was at
once placed at its head as pres
ident, which position he held
until death.
Mr, YVylie was a most successful
business man, amassing in his
lifetime a fortune amounting to
>ver the ?100,000 mark. Of late
he has been most liberal with his
wordly goods. The public will
remember his magnificent gift
lome years ago of $8,000 to Era
'<ine Theological seminary. Short
ly after this ho gavo $7,500 to tie
used in building a dormatory at
Krakine college. This work is
now completed and stands as a
handsome monument to the generous
donor.
He hati always contributed lib- aha:
orally to the endowment fund ot a an
this institution as well as to all diti<
charitable objects within his j-v? c
reach. In 1897 when 1he Asso '
ciate Reformed Presbyterian
hr t
congregation of this city decided KHj?
to build a new church. Mr. Wy wjjj
lie presented them with a most Bhot
suitable site and contributed most Hkyi
liberally to the building fund.
Not only has his immediate religious
sect felt the blessings of
his generous heart, but the city p,
of his home has always received our
its full share of his generosity.
Only two years ago he presented \

park bears his name, as also does cord

Jos. Wylio was a citizen whose freq
death the whole State may justly [prfH(
mourn. His influence for good '
and his noble deeds were felt in
other sections ot tho State be
sides Chester county. *
His remair.j were interred in

held from the Associate Reformed
