Mack from Peki

Aniong the passengers who arrived here yesterday by the str. Haean, from Tangku ind Chefoo, were two marines belonging to H.M.S. Orlando, who had formed part of the Legation guard at Peking. The men Jooked a good deal the worse for wear, as aid their khaki uniforms, and they were emphatic in expressing their satisfaction at getting within range of a "square meal" again. They appear to be in good health we are glad to say, despite past hardships.
