Chinese COURT IN SHAN-S|
THEY WILL NOT GO BACK
The Imperial Court Refuses to Re-
turn to the Chinese Capitalists
Now on the Way to Shan-Si-Are
Restrained by Fear.

Washington, Oct 9.-The effort to
induce the Chinese imperial court to return
to Pekin has failed after a weeks
persistent effort on the part of the powers.
News to that effect was brought to the
state department by the Chinese minister,
who received it via st. Petersburg from
Niceroys Liu-Kun-Yih and Chang Chin
lung, under date of October 4. Minister
WI received the message last night. 1t
was as follows:
The departure of their imperial ma
jesties from Shan-si (province) was due to
distressing conditions at Tai-Yuen-Fu.
There is scarcity of food supplies in the
province of Shan-si on account of the long
continued drouth, and the provincial cap
ltal (Tai-yuen) is almost deserted, the
trades people hdving left on account OF the
disturbances caused and continued for
months by the Boxer rebels, who had in
vaded that province with the encourage
ment of Governor Yu. Their majesties,
therefore, were obliged to proceed to
Shan-si, where telegraphic communica-
ton with Shanghai and other parts of the
empire is open, and rapid communication
with their maesties may therefore be
carried on; thus court and official business
may be transacted more eXpeditiously by
their presence in Shan-si rather than Tai
Auen-Fu. The reasons for the temporary
postponement of their majesties' return to
Pekln are the presence of the allied troops
there, of which fear is doubtless entertain
ed, besides the dread of the breaking out
of epidemic diseases, which usually follow
after great disturbances, destruction of
property and military operations. 1t is
hoped the powers will be considerable in
their judgment in this natter
The important feature of the message
Is the confession that the court is re-
strained by fear of the allied forces from
returning to Pekin. The movement takes
the emperor and empress dowager about
800 miles further away from Pekin,
though, according to the statements con-
tanned in the message, by reason of the
direct telegraphic communication with
Shanghai the court practically will be
nearer for purposes of negotiations with
the outside world than it was at Tai
Yuen.
Minister WI has been informed also
that Viceroy Yu of the province just va
Gated by the court has been impeached
because of his anti-foreign tendencies,
which is the first step toward his degrade
ton.
1t is said there are no Boxers in the
newly chosen locality, so that the court
will have thrown off the hostile influences
recently surrounding it,

Tornado in Minnesotn.

Duluth, Mimi, Oct 7.-One of the fer
cest tornadoes that ever visited northern
Minnesota and parts of Wisconsin struck
the edge of the Minnesota range, town of
Biwabik, killing two persons, injuring
eight and doing damage variously estimat-
ed at from 100000 to 100000.
The dead
John Moriety, crushed by falling wall.
Mrs. John Moriety, blown against tree;
head crushed
The injured are workmen about the iron
mines, and not one is fatally hurt.
The principal damage consists of a
destruction of shaft-houses, dwelling and
business houses. Biwabik suffered severe
ly. Twenty houses were demolished. Tor
nadoes prevailed all over Minnesota. Vio-
lent thunderstOrms were almost continu-
GUS A great amount of rain has fallen.
he tornado at Biwabik was followed by
a tremendous downpour. Iron mines
which had been flooded by recent rains
and which were getting in shape to operate
are flooded again in many cases. When
the damage to Cincinnati mines as a re-
suit of shutting them down is considered,
the loss from the storm will be much
greater than the estimates given.
The nnel-shaped cloud passed over
Biwabik with a power that was irresist-
ible. 1t stopped locomotives, blew cars
oil the track and carried them from 100
to 300 feet. Houses in the path of the
tornado were blown to atoms and the
furniture scattered for miles. The Duluth
Mining company's shaft-houses and other
buildings were blown down. The Drake
St1atton company sustained considerable
loss to locomotives and ears.
Later.
Biwabik, Mimi, Oct. 8.-The tornado
that ragged in this vicinity was most
violent The storm cut a pathway $50
feet in width through the northwestern
corner of the town, completely wreck
ing several buildings. The property
loss is estimated at 100000 and the
known fatalities number nine, with a
score or more injured, some severely.
The storm swept in a northwesterly d.
rection after leaving here and struck
little Finnish settlement near Pike
lake, where number of buildings
were wrecked, in one of which an entire
family, consisting of husband, wife and
four children, were instantly killed.
So far their names have not been OBJ
tanned. 1t is believed that when the
more remote districts are heard from
further casualties may be received.

Property Looking Up.

One of the encouraging signs OF
the times in this city, is the fact
that property values are looking up.
For three months past property
owners have been gradually increas-
ing the prices on real estate, until
now lots on Washington street are
fully 25 per cent higher than for
merly. This rise is due to the gen
eral belief that the Short Line will
erect new round house and depot
at this point and make other SUBJ
stantlal improvements. Property
has been very low, too low in fact,
for city like this, and, as predict
ed heretofore, the people realize it
and are therefore raising the price.

Warned bv Those About to Die,

Camille FIamn41iTOn, III a -tl'nC". r.
riodical. asked people to answer tie
following question: Have you ever had
while awake the impression of having
seen a human being and had that i'm
preston coincide with the time OF the
death of that person. The astrono,
mer tells the result Of his investigation
in the NOuvelle Revue.
He had 4,2S0 responses. of which
2A56 were negative and 1.S14 allirma-
tive. Of the affirmative replies he ex-
amined 7S2, who recited l,120 cases, all
of which he regards as authentic. In
his article NJ FlammariOn merely gives
the experience of the subjects as re
lated to him and does not attempt to
account for the premOnitiOnS.
1t might be said however. that the
fact that 40 per cent Of those who
wrote to him had had telepathic eX-
periences does not indicate such an
average among the human family. The
three periodicals whose readers he ask
ed for information have n large circu-
latiOn. and it is safe to say that every
reader who has had premonitions OF
the death of a friend wrote to Flam-
marion, while the others would not re-
gard If Gs~wcrth while.

TURNED THE TABLES.
The Surprise Was for She Who
Had Planned to Surprise.

That SURPRISES DO not always sur
prise those for whom they are intended
is one of the peculiar things about sur
prises, and this fact was we'll Illus
trated one day this week in an east end
house. The lady Of the house received
word from a friend that she was COM
ing out the next day for lunch. Now,
it happened that the next day was the
day on which the servant girl had her
day off, and the lady Of the house made
up her mind that she would surprise
her friend by getting up nice lunch
prepared by herself. for she had the
reputation when they were young la
dies of not being able to cook, while
her friend had the reputation of being
an excellent cook.
The day her friend was expected the
lady went to market and laid in sup
ply of all the good things which go to
make up a fine lunch. She went home
and lighted the fire and prepared for
the cooking. Just then she discovered
that she had forgotten to get some
fruit and told her young daughter to
tell her friend when the latter came
that she would be back in a few mo-
ments. She went to the store and,
meeting some of her friends, staid quite
awhile forgetting how time was flying.
In the meantime the friend arrived,
and. being told that her hostess would
soon be home, she went into the kitch-
en-. and, seeing the good things there,
she went to work and cooked and pre-
pared the lunch. When the lady of the
house arrived home, she was astonish-
ed to see the table set and most APP
petizing lunch on the table. The sur
prise she had intended for her friend
was surprise for her. - Pittsburg

CHURCHES OF SALT.
Curious Sights in the PoIish-Austrian City
of WiIIiCzke,

The city of Williczke, in Polish Aus
tria which has long been known as the
."City of Salt contains some who'll.
unique specimens of church architect
ure. It's salt mines, excavated for over
500 years, cover vast underground
area, with streets, public squares,
amusement halls and restaurants,
railway station, thirty miles of under
ground railway, and chapels, all cons
structed of blocks of salt, which give
out a dazzling radiance in the electric
light. A writer thus describes scene
in st. Anthony's Chapel, which was
built in 1868 by rameless, unalded
miner out of solid masses of salt, and
which the writer calls the most re,
markable place of worship in the
world;
Several times each year the priest"
of the district hold services IN TINS un'
dergrOund chapel, and one service IN
particular is annually celebrated on
July 3 with considerable pOmp and
earnest devotion. The priests, attlred
| in full dress robes, descend the mines
in state and are accompanied by nun
dreds of piOus people, who journey
for mIes from all parts of the country
in order to take part in the service.
A throng of sightseers, too, attracted
by ceremonies so unique in their sur
r0undings, come especially on this day
to view the mines and reverently list
en-. The chants of the priest and the
i sweet voices Of the singers reverberate
through the empty rooms and passages
in manner which is both solemn and
impressive.
"Tne Queens Chapel, the second i'm
portant one, also possesses magnlh-
cent altar which has been carved
with expert skill in solid salt. On the
side of the chapel, too. has been carved
with almost incredible art, a view OF
Bethlehem.
ut is rather a curious testimony tC
the strong religious feeling of the peO
5ple of olden times to find TO the pres
ent day the majority of the rooms ant
corridors are still named after the
saints and martyrs who have figured
in the history of religion, and ever
today the religious fervor of ce0turie:
ago still seems to retain an influence
over the inhabitants of Chis unique
city of salt"
