Gafiaudet Won From Central High
school by q to o.

After having been defeated by the Cen
tral High School eleven by the score
of to several weeks ago, the pigskin
hustlers of the Gallaudet College yester-
day turned the trick on the cadets, scor-
ing victory over them by a score of
6 to o. The mutes held the cadets for
downs several times in the first half, and
prevented them from scoring a touch
down. In the second half the Central lads
got dangerously near their opponents last
chalk line, but could not score. The Ken
dali Green boys got their solitary touch
down in the second half after they had
held their opponents for downs several
times.
The cadets played Il fast game. and it
was only hard luck that twice prevented
them from scoring. Kennedy. the star
player of the team did some of the pref
tiest tackling seen in high school game.
He made all of the long gains for ms
team, and was the hero of the day.
Today the first team from Gallaudet
College will face the strong team from
Johns Hopkins University on Kendall
Green, and a hard-fought battle Is an

Washington. April 27.-The follow
ing cablegram has been received at
the State Department from Mr.. Sqiier,
the United States charge at Pekh.
1.-THE Empress Dowager has appoint
ed board Of national administration
to relieve her of her public functions.
They embrace three members Of THE
Cabinet now with the Empress at Sian
Flu, and Prince Ching, Viceroy II and
Prince Kung. who are now in Pekin."
This news is regarded as Of import
ance, Indicating as 1t does the re-
linquishment by the Empress Dowager
Of the arbitrary powers she heretofore
has exercised.
The three members OF the cabinet
now at Sian Flu include the notorious
Jung Lu, who was one of the most
active in the outbreak against the
foreigners last summer. One Of the
other members Of this council seventy
years old and is said to be greatly
debilitated. The third member has
been at least lukewarm toward foreikn
interests. The choice Of these three
Is looked upon as likely to complicae
the good which Ii Hung Chang AID

Prof. Gustave Bischof of the 0las-
cow university has invented a new
process for the manufacture OF white
lead. His plan Is the conversion Of
metallic lead into litharge, by means
OF water gas at temperature Of 800
degrees centigrade. to suboxide. Sum-
cient water is then added to moisten
this suboxide. which is converted into
hydrate. This substance is then inserted
into q gas-tight apparatus. and by
means of carbonic and diluted acetic
acid manufactured into white lead.
Under the old process white lead oc-
cupied from two to three months In
its manufacture, bdt Prof. Bischof is
enabled to make purer article within
less than forty-eight hours at a much
cheaper price and with perfect safety
to the employees.
