POLICY is CHANGED.
Persons Convicted of ''Lese Majeste''
to Be More Literally
Dealt With.

Berlin. Nov. 12.-1t is announced that
Emperor William has decided to here
after use the pardoning power literally
in cases of lese majeste. This is a radi-
cal departure from the previous practice.
It heretofore had been practically un-
known for the emperor to pardon per-
son convicted of this offense. 1t is now
said that he intends to pardon almost
without exception when the offender is
shown to belong to the uneducated
classes, or to be incapable of weighing
the consequences of a hasty word. Also
offenses committed during drunkenness
or while in an excited condition, render
ing deliberation impossible, will consti-
tute the basis for pardon. The emperor
has directed the ministry of justice to
deal literally with all persons convicted
of an insult to his majesty who petition
for pardon and show penitence.

Auburn, CAL, Nov12.-The handsome

A man, woman or child Is not worth
q, cent more, dead or alive, for a
mouthful of beautiful gold work. No
Judge or jury was ever known to re.
turn a higher verdict for damages
for a man killed in an accident be-
cause he had $50 or 500 worth Of
gold in his mouth. No one ever pays
taxes on such personal wealth as he
may have distributed among his
molars. Wealth Is the criterion and
regulator of all position and class in
these days, and the possession Of gold
filings does not add in the least -
ones worldly riches. #, s<1 a =.= .A=.z

Soneng-Pao-Kis is the son of tht,
Chinese ambassador in Paris. His
father is Justly proud of him, for he Is
a little fellow of accomplishments and
is already talked about more than his
distinguished progenitor. He is known
as "the Chinese wonder-child." Only
five years old, he speaks French flu
emily and has $500 Chinese charac-
ters at his command. This indicates
a memory such as even "geniuses"
seldom possess, for each stroke OF

WILL VISIT WORLDS FAIR
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT TO M
sPECT EXPOSITION.
Sets Saturday, November 26, as the
Date-Appropriate Ceremonies
to Be ARRANGED.

Washington, Nov. 12-President
Roosevelt has promised to attend. the
Louisiana Purchase exposition on Sat-
urday, the 26th of November. He made
this promise to committee from St.
Louis, headed by Mayor Wells, who came
to Washington especially for the pur-
pose OF inviting him to visit the fair. The
probability is the president may remain
In st. Louis until the night of Sunday,
November ~. President Roosevelt has
been anxious to go to St. Louis to see
the fair ever since it's opening. How
ever, the presidential campaign impelled
him to remain in the east and in August
he so informed Mr.. William H. Thomp-
son, treasurer of the exposition.
The committee to which the presi.
dent gave his promise to visit the fair
consisted of Mayor Rolla Wells, William
H. Thompson and Corbin H. Spencer.
first vice president of the exposition.
1t Is expected that the president and
those who accompany him will leave
here on Thanksgiving night and will
reach st. Louis early Saturday morning.
The invitation to Mr.. Roosevelt, it is
understood, is comprehensive enough to
include any other persons whom he may
wish to have with him, and some of the
members of the cabinet are likely to &C.
company him.
The members of the committee are
highly elated with the promptness with
which Mr.. Roosevelt decided to visit the
fair. They feel that his attendance will
have an excellent effect and that the day
of his visit will be one of the banner
days, if not the banner day of the ex-
POSITIONS history. They say that ar
rangements Immediately will be made
for fitting programme for that day, the
chief feature, of course, being thor
ough inspection of the grounds and
buildings of the great fair, with such
other appropriate exercises as BELTS the
presence of the chief executive of the
nation. For Sunday following, should
there be no disappointment of the COM
mittee's expectation that the president
will remain in St. Louis during that day,
arrangements for his entertainment also
will be made.

paper teeth, which are constructed
from paper pulp instead Of from the
porcelain or other material usually
employed. They are said to have

ventured on the use, for not only do
they keep their color we'll but, not be-
ing brittle, are much less liable to
chip than the ordinary false teeth.
They are likewise guaranteed to be
