to make and enforce ruling to compel all con-
tractors and express companies as well as the
District officers TO furnish their wagons which

1t is a shame and outrage against humanity

them TO do so. II they fail or clip the driver is

china's Imperial Prisoner.

lErom the II. james GazetLe-(
The unfortunate Emperor of China is
still in close confinement on an island,
made a peninsula by day by the letting
down of a drawbridge in the southwest
corner OF the palace. His chief amusement
is the training of goats and monkeys. The
former he has. by dint OF much pat:ence,
taught to do tricks OF every kind. One Is
to jump through the paper windows, which
are found everywhere in China, from the
palace to the cottage. 1t is said that the
Empress Dowager complained Of the ex-
pense of having daily to replace the break-
ages. But perhaps the youthful and intel
ligent Emperor is endeavoring 10 Pres mt
before her eyes an object lesson on broken
China
The Emperor. too, according to the same
authority. has shown a more independent
spirit, and positively refused to go TO the
Dowager when sent for, declaring that ne
was still the Emperor. He is strictly guard
ed by men chosen from the bodyguard of
the Empress Dowager, who are changed
every aye days. To avoid any chance of
conspiracy or attempt at rescue the guard
do not take their turn in regular order
but when the period OF duty Of one detach-
rnent is approaching conclusion Hek Majes
ty takes list OF the whole bodygusrd, and
shutting her eyes. puts down her pencil
on the paper. The man whose name Is
marked In this way is sent to form part
OF the Emperor's watchers. Such, at any
rate. are the tales told by several we'll
informed Chinese
