CHINESE OF ROYAL BLOOD
Special Train Bearing Party Passes
Through EnrOute to WASH
inEtOn.

The special train bearing Prince Tsai Flu
and Special Ambassador Tong Snoa VI
from San Francisco to Washington passed
through Omaha at $50 Saturday night.
The prince is a relative of the late EN-
peror of China. and with the ambassador
is on his way to Washington to convey the
thanks Of the Chinese government to the
United States for remitting a large portion
OF the Boxer indemnity.
The train consisted OF three Pullmans, a
diner and two baggage cars. The run
across the state of Nebraska was made In
record time. The schedule was originally
arranged to keep the train just ahead Of
the Overland limited. but when Omaha
was reached more than two hours had
been gained over the running time Of the
limited, which is the fastest of the Union
Pacific regular trains.
Forty-eight persons mace UP the party,
of whom twenty belong to the official suite
as secretaries and attaches. Fifteen young
men, members OF prominent Chinese
families, are with the party and when
washington is reached they will be placed
in various eastern schools to acquire an
American education. The remainder OF the
party Is made up OF servants and assistants
Of various sorts.
NJ. Y. Chung, one Of the secretaries OF
the embassy, acted as spokesman and met
the representatives of the press while the
train stopped at the Union depot to change
engines. He said that both the prince and
the ambassador had been very much Inn
pressed by the warmth of their welcome
since they reached San Francisco and by
what they have seen OF this country on
their trip east. He would make no COM
ments on the recent changes in the Chinese
government. saying that they knew nothing
OF them until the y reached Honolulu on
their way across the Pacific.
The party will remain in Washington for
| two or three months and will then go to
Europe, where London, Paris, Berlin and
other capitals will be visited after whicn
the return trip to China will be made over
the Trans-siberian railroad.
None of the resident Cinnamon OF omaha
were at the depot to see their distinguished
countrymen.

SUBPOENA DELAYS PASTOR

WRtertown is witness in
bling Case.

Rev. ]. P. Clyde, new pastor of Plymouth
Congregational church, Twentieth and
Spencer streets, is expected to arrive in
Omaha from his former home at Water
town, S. D., in time to conduct services
this morning. Rev. Mr.. Clyde might have
reached the city sooner than this, but was
detained as a witness in a gambling case
at WATERFOWL.
Here is an excerpt from the Watertown
Public Opinion explaining the matter:
Upon the motion of the states attorney,
Rev. j. p. Clyde, retiring pastor OF the
Congregational church, was this morning
detained by subpoena to appear as a wit
ness in the case in which Charles Root Is
charged with maintaining gambling appa-
ratus. Rev. Mr.. Clyde desires to leave for
his new home at Omaha and negotiations
are pending in an effort to release him.
Judge Marquis thought that Il would be
advisable to have the witness give a 500
appearance bond In each of the three gamb-
ling cases, in which he Is an important
witness, but by agreement of attorneys IL
was arranged so that his testimony already
given might be read at the trial of Root.
Speaking to the court, Rev. Mr.. Clyde
explained his situation and his desire to
leave for the new post next Friday. He
suggested that his deposition might be
taken, and the attorneys now have that
suggestion under consideration. No further
action was taken, the matter being in
statu quo until an agreement is reached.

gone from the city for good. Every DAY

cant explain IL but it scents to me that
ever since the fatal shooting Of Simon
Drummy last year the negroes have been
getting out of town. Since the death of j.
w. Chenault the departure has been more
rapid than ever. 1t us a peculiar thing,
probably more than half superst t1ous, but
they moved strangely TO get out. l saw
three taking the trains night before last.
That class OF negroes I am glad to see go.
They have always been a nuisance and a
source OF great danger to the peace or the
city. The families who get out OF these
cheap lodgings and live in single families
are not a bad part of the population; but
the gang in the cheap lodgings is a dis
grace to the city and TO humanity.

A banquet was given to the foot ball
team, the yell and song managers of the
season and to a few subs Monday night
by Tommy Kurushina, a young Japanese
student. He betrayed all the expenses and
personally inscribed the place cards. His
intense loyalty to the college and especially
the foot ball team has occasioned consider
able comment. The banquet took place in
the Fontanelle hall dining rooms. The room
was beautifully decorated with pennants
and the tables with the college colors and a
profusion of cut flowers Besides the foot

The college debating club has swung in
line for the hardest work of the year now
that the foot ball season has closed. This
years schedule is unusually stiff for the
debaters. A triangular debate is on, and
probably debates with Coe college and Cot
