HOW THE MAID KNEW
BURGLAR FROM THE BOSS.

There is one thing WI Ting-Fang does
not approve, and that is the sending of
Chinese commissioners to the various
countries, such as France, Germany and
America, to study modern government.

disapproval, lis that such commissions

HOME BANKRUPT,
OLD INMATES join
IN SUICIDE PACT
Death Discloses Agreement to
End Their Lives Before They
Had to Leave Refuge.

CHICAGO, March 2O.-A suicide pact
involving probably a dozen inmates OF
Bethesda Home for the Aged is be-
lieved to have been revealed by the
death of John Koch yesterday, by his
own hand, after ridicullng John Hasel
bach. who failed in an attempt at self
destruction. The motive for the pact
is the bankruptcy of the home, a pri-
vate institution, into which many of
the old folks, friendless and alone in
the world, had paid their lifetime saw
ings. expecting to be cared for until
death.
AS a result of the bankruptcy the
aged inmates are face to face with dos
titution. \
Mrs. Emma Bausch, one of the super
visors of the home, predicts a number
of additional suicides, although she has
dissuaded three who had avowed such
a purpose.

AUSTRIAN STAMPS FOR
EMPEROR'S JUBILEE,

Not the least interesting event in
connection with the Emperor Francis
Joseph's Jubilee is the issue of n Sc
ries of new stamps. says the Vienna
correspondent of the London Chroni-
Gle. These will not only be a valuable
addition to the collection of every
philatelist. but will serve to remind the
world of the long reign of the emperor,
for every letter sent from his country
in future will bear either the portrait
of the emperor or that of one of his
ancestors.
The stamps represent events in the
later epoch of Austrian history. The
actual jubilee stamp, which is of the
value of SIS. 4d., bears the dates 1913
1908. On this his majesty is repre-
scented full face and at his present
age. This portraits is remarkably trut
to life. 1t may be mentioned that TIKI
emperor never allows himself to bl
photographed or painted fun face. TIL,
portraits Of his nlRieaty's predecessor
are taken from the family gallery.

It was prior TO 1870, Plus would have found

political grounds TO assume the independent
stand which he has taken in France. II he dis
played so much independence as he did, TO the
extent Of the breaking off Of the Concordat and
the rupture Of diplomatic relations with the
Paris government il was because the conces-
sions demanded of the Church were not only
surrenders Of material interests and of spiritual
authority over the clergy, but even of certain
fundamental principles Of the Church, and he

acts and obligations of its predecessor. the acts
Of the Church are made for all time.
No one can tell what the morrow may bring
forth in France. For two or three years past
all power there has been concentrated in the
hands OF Premier Clemenceau, one Of the most
able and autocratic statesmen that has ever
come to the fore since the death Of Gambetta
He rules his colleagues and France just at pres
ent with a rod of iron and is respected. even by
his adversaries because he constitutes bulwark
against the forces of disorder and anarchy. But
he is well advanced in years and in somewhat
broken health and thus far there is one in
sight who can ever hope to succeed TO his au-
thority and TO his prestige. Indeed, there are
many both in France and abroad, who do not
hesitate TO express the opinion that were his

At the time when Plus X preferred to break

Protestants but even by people Of his own
Church as foolishIy obstinate, as ignorant Of
