PEKING, Feb. 0 Tho ClSn" field joteiitinilcs. l'rinre China- ami LI HutiR Chang, Imd a protTiictod ineotinK ycnier ly with the foii-Un envoys. Twelve names of prominent Chinese oflicliil were submitted with the request t lint. China keep faith with the powers mid punish the persons named coujmeiisurate ly with their offense. The Chlnes plenipotentiaries replied that China's enrnest hope was to curry mnt fnllv tho iletiinnds of the Dowers nnd that she felt sine the punishment whieh would be inllieted woidd bo autisfuetory. It waa discovered taut. 2 out of 12 of the perilous named wore already dead. In certain cases the Chinese plenipo tMitarios Rave reasons why the punish ment inflicted should lie banishment and not death, assorting that in those cases they particularly desired banishment only because .the persons in question were so -' closely related to the throne. After n long conversation n the sub ject of punishment it was decided that the foreign envoys should draw up n full Hat of ail accused officials, both national . and provincial, with Indictments specify . kng the guilt of each fljitl n statement of ;he punishment required, which would then be presented to the Chinese pleni lotentiaries for definite uction. LI Hung Chang, wlio is very weak from his recent illness, had to be enr rled In and out of the Itritish legation, lie Is unable to wtilk, but his head seems as .clear as ever. The fereign envoys were impressed with the evident desire of both l'llnce Chiug and LI Hung Chnng to come to terms, l'rinoe Ching asked whether, provided tCliinu showed, by every means in her power a desire- to- enrvy out the terms of le joint note, the foreign troops would leave l'eking. The foreign envoys replied that this was a subject they could not discuss be yond saying that, if everything were satisfactory, they believed . the powers would begin to withdraw the troops car ry in the coming spring, but that this de pended luixely upon the Chinese them selves. Prince CUiing and LI Hung'Chnng said they desired .to know the names of the places whore guards would be kept for the purpose of maintaining communica tion with (the ea in accordance with the terms of tlte. juiut note. They were informed that this was n subject regarding which the military au thorities had more accurate knowledge than the envoys, but that at present no determination had been reached.

UN LIKE HIS FATHER. Personality of J. Ogden Armour, Son of the Great P. D. lie Is Deliberate, Cautions and tlr- fine Few Changes Looked for I In the Management of the ' (treat Armour Interests. J. Ogdcu Armour, who succeeds to the nmiMigemcnt of his father' vast business interests, is plijMeiilly if not menially wholly unlike his father, Bays the Chieuffu Record. Slim of form nnd face, delibernie If not slow iik his motions, hesitating if not studied in his utterances, be lias none of the personal characteristics which distinguished his futher. The late hend of the Armour bouse was wjuara of stature, "bullet-headed," strong jawed, round-faced,' quick of move ment, alert in repose, impulsive, posi tive, aggressive and relentless lu the pursuit of an Idea. J. Ogden Armour has a long, nar row hmd, a chin pointed like his mother's, a refined rather thnn. a strong contour. Hp Is us calm in ac tion ns at rest. He lacks Impulsive ness to the verge of coldness. He is cautious, modest, evasive ns opposed to aggressive, conciliatory, generous and always well-poised. Nobody who knows him believes that he absolute ly approves of his father's almost slaving adherence to early hours, hard work, devotion to detail and personal supervision of n. business so perfectly organized nnd officered that. like n great railroad or a good gov ernment it can almost "run Itself." I Those who nre nearest to the yottng ' head of the great packing business ngree that he will introduce no startling chnnges In the affairs of the company. He Is notoriously averse to changes, opposed to revolutionary methods nnd fearful of "scenes. He has nlwnvs ah own n disposition to "take up" with the men who assisted and advised his father and to let well J. OGDEN ARMOUR. (New Head of the Great Armour Packing and Stock Interests. enough alone. Innocent of uny of the combative qualities of his sire, it is probable that he will never engage in those, fierce speculative combats that seemed to delight and almost in apir the founder of the house. Yet withul, conciliatory, gentle and de liberate us he is, the young president of Armour & Co. is said to be pos sessed of a spirit as stubborn and self-reliant as that of his futher. Arthur Meeker is perhaps the dean of the late millionaire's advisers, and there is every reason to believe that J. Ogdn will lean confidently upon him and his associates. The young man has not thus far departed from the routine hours set forth and ob served by his father. He knows every detail of the business even 'better than Phil, his brother, knew them at the time he was taken ill. But he does not take business detnilR ns seri ously as the others. He seems content to know rather than to do. Already most of his well-eonceived and well-digested ideus have been i profitably used by the company. There is no reason to suppose thnt j he will nbnte any of the great projects that may become feasible for the business. There are some who be lieve thut his cool, quiet, deliberate ways are even better suited to the altered conditions of trade than were the swift almost headlong methods of his father In the days when com mercial victories were won- by wit innrl. nudaclty rather than by dl p'.oninoy, flneRre nnd cold calculation. J. Ordcn Armour was born 37 years P70. He spent two yenrs In the nub ile schools nnd was Inter sent to Yale, graduating in he class of '89. After an extended European tour he re turned to Chicago, nnd the second day n'ter his arrival was invited by his fatber to accompany him to tb" vnrds. From thnt lime he hna worked I steadily.

Hot the Yonnar Trees Are Troleeted from the Frnat In the South. Who ever heard of an orange tree be ing rolled up In a blanket ot nlghtl They never heard of such a thing In Florida until the ye-or of the blizzard when the temperature dropped from ' 65 above zero to 20 In one night and . thousands of orchards full of fruit were j turned blnck and bare. Now orange j growers have blankets for their tree i nnd when there is danger of a frost tents are stretched around them, and ! vncf liLolv btir Vprnsene Inmns or small . . 7 ..... v .n - - - i - - - - stoves are lit inside the tent to keepthf fingers and toes of valuable trees from beinff nipped. Only 30 seconds are need ed to put up some of these tents which are already in place attached to pole beside the trees and operated by mcam of rings end strings. In an hour a whole orchard can be mode to look like an army camping ground. Some young orchards of many acresare inclosed in slat houses which can be opened and closed like window shutters. Still on- other way is to Inclose the orchard in board fences as high as the trees. On frosty nightsa roof is formed by strlpf of muslin stretched on wires from one side of the field to the other. In all of these inclosures artificial heatof some kind is kept up and everything is used from hand lamps to big sheet iron sala manders" and miles of stovepipe to distribute the heat to all parts of the orchards. COLOR OF PERSONALITY. Uow This Yonnw lrl Ions I'p Her tieneral Impression of Others. "What, do you think of her?" asked the man, us he end the girl looked to g-ether nt a drawing in one of the il lustrated magazines, according to the New York Sun. For answer the young woman took up a pencil and wrote across the ton of the poor: "She is very distinctly lavender." "What do you mean?" said the man. "The drawing looks to me very much as thouch it were done in b)uck and white." "Of course, said the young woman, 'but I mean the real girl of whom that is the1 picture. I always sum tip people in terms of color. The general impres sion which onvone makes upon me their Jook, talk and whole personality, is summed up for me In a color. This is the only way in which I ran con ceive a general impression of a person. Just ns soon as I meet new persons and talk with them half a minute they be come for me yellow, or scarlet, or vio let, or some other color. As for that, names have color just as much as any thing else. Florence, of course, must make anyone think of thick red plush. "To see things in this way, of course, a color has got to have, in itself, a per sonality, and I dare say thnt my color personalities- arc quite different from yours.
