A missionary told Philadelphia
audience recently that new dynasty
was sure to come in China. No one
will dispute this statement who is at
all familiar with the constitution
which the present emperor of the
Celestial kingdom has conferred upon
his subjects. In its-first section it de-
clares that the present government
under the control of the present
reigning family and its heirs shall
continue for one thousand genera
lions. Necessarily at the conclusion
of that period there will be change
in the dynasty, for does not the con-
stitution specifically provide for it?

kremer Is Acquitted

John Kremer was acquitted Sat
urday afternoon on the charge of
keeping his saloon open on Sunday.
For the state, Thomas Doyle and Dan
McPhee gave testimony, the latter
stating positively that he bought the
liquor of John Kreme-'s barkeeper,
whom he identified in the court room.
Damn testified that he had not sold
the liquor and that he did not know
the man. Frank Sharpstein, for the
defense, argued that prosecution of
saloons for keeping open on Sunday
was a discrimination and that they had
as much right to do SO as have candy
and cigar stores. After a short con-
sultation the jury returned the ver-
dict, Not Guilty"
