Doubtless much Of the Chinese EN-
peror's panic over the successes of the
army marching upon Moukden Is caus-
ed by frantic fear that this enormous
fortune will be taken from him, and
reduce him, no matter what the final
outcome Of the war may be, to compar-
alive Deggary! 1t is reported that the
treasure has already been secretly re-
moved from the palace to less imper
illed hiding place. IL the treasure has
been taken outside the walls Of Monk
den--which is extremely improbable
it cannot have been carried far. In
the present anarchic condition of Man
churia it would be as well to leave the
vast treasure for the Japanese victors
as to expose it to pillage by the turbu-
lent Manchurians.
Should the imperial treasure of MONK
den fall into the hands of the Japanese,
would 1t belong to the latter govern
ment? Most assuredly, and the only
civilized power that would be liable to
make even an attempt at a protest
would be England. Should England
interfere to prevent this splendid loot

anese, who have passion for history,

In its results the most important bat
tie fought since Waterloo was that of
Sedan. BY 1t Imperialism was brought
to an end In France; the third republic,
which still endures and prospers, was
proclaimed; the federation of the Ger
man provinces was effected, and King
William Of Prussia became the-vuler OF
a united German empire. The battle
of Sedan, fought September 1, 1870,
virtually ended the war, which the
third Napoleon had foolishly declared
against Prussia, and on the battle field
Napoleon himself surrendered his
sword to the Prussian king.
Since that day "a years ago the bat
tie field Of Sedan has greatly changed.
Nearly every relic of the eventful strug-

Garnet Weaving.

1t was in France that the first serious
effort was made to establish the manu-
facture of carpets in the fashion of the
Orient. This was in the reign Of
Louis XIV. and under the direction of
his Minister Colbert The royal manu-
factories were designed to furnish all
manner of furniture, and in the Gobe-
Inns and Beauvais factories $50 master
weavers wove rich tapestries. During
the revolution of 1889 these factories
were almost suppressed, but Napo-
leon /. revived the manufactures and
furnished his palaces with their
loom work. The national workshops
of France still continue, and the
woven stuffs of Gobelins, Beauvais,
and the Savonnerie are accounted
among the finest In Europe. The
knowledge of carpet weaving was pre-
sumably introduced into England
from France. During the persecution
Of the Huguenots the carpet weavers,
with other artistic craftsmen, fed for
refuge to England, and established
themselves in various towns. Axmin-
ster, In Devonshire, was one of these,
and also the town of Wilton. These
places retained their supremacy for a
long time, but with the introduction
of the jacquard loom and various i'm
proved processes of manufacture, the
industry was successfully developed

Remarkable Romance Rounded ON.
About Twenty-Five years ago james
Hard went to work for farmer named
Arnold in Jackson County, Oregon, and
a few months later married Arnold's
stepdaughter. Soon after trouble arose
between the two men. Arnold took his
daughter away from Hard and when
the latter went after her the two men
.quareled, and the result was Arnold
ewas shot dead and Hard fed the State.
His wife secured a divorce and remar-
ried. Her husband died few years
ago. Three years ago Hard returned to
Jackson County, was recognized, ar
rested for the murder of Arnold, and
sent to the penitentiary for term. Dur
ing the trial his former wife visited him
frequently, the old love revived, and
she worked her hardest to secure his
release. After two years her efforts
were successful and Hard was releas-
ed. A few days ago the two were uni
ted in marriage near their first home.

City Rent by fractional Fights, but
Agreed on the Board of Health. !
Pandemonium reigned at the Detroit
Auditorium the other night. The occa-
sion was the call to consider the meas
ures, now pending at Lansing, regarding
the ACCESSIBILITY Of taking from the Mayor
the power to appoint the members of the
various boards, transferring such power
to the Governor. All disorderly gather
ings heretofore held in the State sank
into insignificance when compared with
the confusion and riot of the nights pro-
ceedings, when none of the customary
rules for procedure. could prevail, and
there was war to the knife between the
Pingree and anti-Pingree factions. At
times the meeting threatened to assume
a serious aspect, personal encounters
being narrowly averted. The anti-Pin-
gree men, composed of many of the rep
resentative residents of the city, stole a
march on the Mayor and occupied the
stage and all the front seats. On one
subject the immense gathering agreed,
and both factions united vigorously in
their condemnation of DR.. Mcleod and
the health board. When DIR. McLeod's
name was mentioned storm of Kisses
arose from every part of the building.
Although divided in the matter of home
rule, as with one voice the audience
shouted and Kissed their detestation of
the health board. References to that
board from the anti-Pingree speakers
even met with a spontaneous answer
from the Pingree faction, and when 1t
was remarked that there was string to
the resignation of the doctor voices called
out: "Cut the string! Hang him with
itv' Such bitterness has never before
been witnessed in the city of Detroit at
any other time or relating to any other
matter. The hostility existing between
the two divisions in the audience vanish
ed long enough when the health board
was mentioned to show that there were
few persons in the audience who did not
consider that the board and the health
officer should be removed. Even the
Pingree faction who stood by him in the
matter of home rule abandoned him al
most to n man on this matter.

What was the greatest height of ava
rice ever dreamed of by man? Did ever
philanthropist estimate the amount of
money with which he could set right all
the wrongs of the world? What is a
"princely fortune" Or, to go further,
what is imperial wealth? Make up
your figures, grasp for an instant at the
enormity of them, and then try to con-
ccive the vastness Of the store of
wealth which Northumberland state
ments give to Moukden, the capital of
Marchuria, and sacred city of the
Mapchus.
Moukden, even by the time this ap-
pears in print, may have fallen into the
hands Of the Japanese army, command
ed by Count Yamagata. And the i'm
perial treasure is estimated at 1900
100000 taels. The value of tael is
about $1.50 Of our money-sometimes
more. This would place the imperial
hoard at nearly two billion Of dollars!
There can be little error in these cal
culations, say those best versed In mat
ters concerning the Chinese govern
ment. 1t is well known that for ut
least 200 years past the reigning Chi
nese Emperor has sent an annual con-
signment of 100000 taels to Moukden
to be stored.
