THE "SON OF HEAVEN"
How the Emperor Of China lives In
SecIusiOn.


SecIusiOn.
From the Chicago Record.
Kuang Hsu, the Chinese Emperor, whose
sudden appearance at an imperial recep-
ton the other day startled the world, only
lately advised of his death, has been an
unfortunate monarch. Twenty-six years
ago his scheming aunt, Tsou-Hsi the
Empress dowager, aware that moment s
delay in the appointment Of Emperor
Tung- Chih's illegal successor would be
fatal to her prospects. had her 3-year-old
nephew taken from his cot at midnight
and placed in the dead Emperor's room.
His acceptance by the people did not sat
isfy her She wished to reign supreme.
For some time the honors were divided
between herself and Tsi-An, Hien-Fung's
widow, known throughout the Empire as
the Eastern Empress" to distinguish her
from the present dowager, called che
western Empress" She did not have to
put up with this obstacle very long, how
ever, for Tsi-An died in 1881, when Tsou-
Hsi charged herself with the future EN-
peror's education and became sole mis-
tress at the palace. Until his coronation
in 1889, the boy went by his family name
of Tsai-Tien, when it was changed to
Kuang-Hsu, which signifies glorious con-
tinuity." This was in accordance with an
old Chinese custom which has existed
from time 1mmemorial, and requires that
every Emperor on ascending the throne
must take a ''kwoh hao," or imperial
name. Thereafter he must never be spok-
en- to or about except by his new title,
and woe betide the absent-m nded China
man who should so far forget himself as
to speak of the Son Of the Heavens" by
his family name. Such crime demands
criminal punishment, which the present
Empress dowager has vigorously inflicted
on numerous occasions
The Chinese Emperor is obliged to live
in seclusion. He can never go out of
his palace gates and see his people and
country as other monarchs can. His
promenades are surrounded with mystery
and though he passes at least seven or
eight times q year down the principal
streets of Pekin no ordinary citizen can
boast of having seen him. The Emperor
is borne by four men in a sedan chair,
with thick plate-glass windows. Armed
escorts accompany and precede him. to

ed youngster and is easily leased. His
head is red and this is used by the other
boys to tease him. Thursday night sew
eral boys began to tease him, calling him
''woodpecker," ETC., when he rushed upon
them with his knife and stabbed Torp

face and twice in the back. Demiug was
fined in the Mayors court and has been
placed under 500 bond to appear before

BURGLARY.
Copper Tubing Stolen
From Cider Mill North
of TaIImadge.
Stolen Property Has Been
Located.
Warrants Issued For Arrest
of Three Men.
Case Will be Brought TO Attention Of
Grand Jury.

A few days ago the proprietor of the
Thomas cider mill, at the Six Corners,
cross roads between Tallmadge and
Kent missed 20 feet of copper and
brass tubing. He reported the circum-
stance to County Detective Burlison
and asked his assistance In locating
the guilty parties.
The official has been making quiet
investigation of the case with the re-
suit that parties, who are believed to
be guilty will be arrested today. He
learned that two Tallmadge men went
to the mill and offered to buy certain
portions of the machinery provided
they could name the price to be paid
Their offer was not accepted and moth
ing more was heard of them. A few
udyS dltcl tueii NisiI tut tuuiuS was
missed.
Upon learning of this circumstance,
Detective Burlison decided to visit the
boarding house of the men. Tie pro-
prietor of the place has had Il poor
reputation in Tallmadge for num-
ber of years. Although he has never
been taken into custody several small
jobs have been charged TO him. The
premises were searched yesterday
with the result that the missing tub
ing was found there. 1t had been care
fully concealed by some one. The
property is valued at $50. Warrants
were prepared charging the proprietor
with concealing stolen property and
the two men who visited the cider mill
with burglary and grand larceny. The
warrants will be served today. The
parties implicated will be given pre-
liminary hearing as soon as possible
in order to bring the case before the
grand jury at its next session.

The dividend paid last week by the
Standard Oil company makes it posi-
bic to form some idea of the immense
power which that company can WELD.
The dividend was Of 2O,OOOOOO-the
regular quartery dividend of 3 per cent,
with II per cent extra This was the
largest cash disbursement ever made
at one time on the stock Of a single
corporation. The magnitude Of the
shifting Of capital contingent on the
paying Of the dividend can be judged
from the fact that the largest quarter
" payment which the United States
ever has made on its debt is 1000.
A corporation which can pay such
dividends can exercise a power in the
government Of a nation which cannot
be ignored in any calculation concern
ing that nation. By immense contri-
buttons to the campaign fund Of a party
and in other ways it can place a party
under obligations that with weak and
corrupt officials can change the whole
trend Of government. This vast power,
it goes without saying, is used for the
benefit of the corporation, and Of its
chief owners and operators. The vel
fare Of the people and Of the nation at
large is a secondary consideration.
Such a giant corporation exists in
violation of public policy. It grows
through the suppression Of competi-
ton by any means at its disposal, fair
or unfair, and it uses the same means
to keep down competition.
The Standard Oil company is the
chief Of the trusts and the principal
retainer of the trust system. This
great trust, in addition, is one that can
not be reached by q revision Of the tar
if laws and the removal Of tue wall
which keeps out foreign competition.
It does not fear foreign competition
because little oil is produced in any
other country than the United States.

HIS BRITISH SYMPATHY.
The News Man Down on the I3Oers-Has
No Regard for Humanity Struggling
for Their Independence

The following appeared in the last
weeks issue Of the GoodIand News:
"Great Britain will only stop fight
ing the Beers on one cOnditiOn-sub-
jugatiOn. The Beers have only them
selves to thank for the downfall Of
their sO-called republic. Dom Paul was
nothing more than a despOt, and a
thrifty one at that, as he is estimated
sscertained that he is a plutOcrat, the
tears that the pOpulist press have
been shedding on the old man and his
country, viii be dried up, and Dom will
be classed by the refOrmers as a trust"
So much for the fiunkey, Of micro
cOsmic proportions, the small bore
scribbler Of the News. Thank fortune
he does not voice the sentiment of this
community. You can count on the fin
gers Of one hand the voters Of Sher-
man county who have pronounced
themselves in line with the sentiment he
unbIushinRly declares. But he is the
administration "Organ grinder with
his mOnkey-the News-with the string
Of patronage around its poor little
hairy neck. Give the Dago a copper
ga penny for his thoughts"
The great mass of the American peo-
pie, irrespective of party lines, are in
sympathy with the citizens of the two
little South African republics fighting
to maintain their independence, in the
unequal conflict with the powerful and
arrogant British empire. If it was only
sympathy for the "under dog" for the
weak against the strong, and the ques-
ton of right and justice entirely elm
mated, sympathy with the Beers would
be only natural and manly. It's the
bully mauling the small boy.
But when more than a century of
wrong is on the British side and for
bearance and patience for more than
ten decades on the Beers side; when
tits a case Of weak republics against
a powerful monarchy bent on an age
long course Of criminal aggression,
murder and cOnfiseatiOn, satanic greed
against human rights; every honest man
and especially an American, the blood
Of the liberty-IovinR Saxon tingling in
his veins, and the memory of massacres
murders and untold atrocities, commit
ted on this continent against the col
Onies, boiling IN his brain-will stand
for the Beers Of course.
What Of the other side? Don't men,
ton it. Human language fails as a
vehicle Of apprObrium and contempt.
Americans love fsir-play and deceney.
Tenant is not in this class. The en-
blem OF Britain is the lion rampant.
The emblem Of our country is the fair
Goddess of Liberty" Down in South
Africa another Goddess of Liberty" as
fair, as dear as ours, aud her sister, is
