WIDOW or EMPEROR
OF CHINA is NO MORE

Shanghai.-News is received of the
death of the sole remaining widow of
Emperor Hsien Feng, at the age of
II. Hsien Feng died in 1861 at Je-
hol whittier he had retired before
the Anglo-French advance on Peking
He was the father of the last emper-
or but one, Tung Shih. whose moth
er was the amiable but lymphatic
Empress TIE An, quite eclipsed by,
though always remaining on friendly
terms with, the redoubtable TIE Hsi
the great empress dowager, who
ruled China for 40 years.
The old lady who has now passed
away was probably unknown outside
very small circle until, few
months before her death, she was
dragged into publicity by the squabble
between the Lung Yu empress dow
ager. chief consort of Emperor Ku-
ang Hsu, and the three surviving seq
! ondary consorts of Tung Chin, who
seem to have tried to strengthen their
cause by winning over the support
of the aged widow of Hsien F'eng. II
does not appear that she ever took a
very active part in the controversy,

since Adoption of Old Age Pension
Law.


Dublin.-A curious effect OF the
old age pension law has ben the Won
derful improvement in the position
of the Irish mother-in-law. This was
brought out when Patrick ConheIly
was charged at Dublin with assault
ing his mother-in-law.
Counsel explained to the jury that
married men were not supposed TO
be desperate admirers of their MOTH
ers-in-law. but social change had
been worked by the old age pension
act. because II they had a mother
in-law who was drawing an old age
pension they took as much care or
her as If she was a precious piece of
china.
The old question used to be which
OF the family could be got to support
the mother-in-law. Now every door
was open to her and solicitations were
addressed to her as she went by
won't YOU stay with your loving
daughter and affectionate son-in-
law?"
The mother-in-law Of this man be-
came an old age pensioner. She had
been living with another daughter
living next door. The poor old wo-
man who was between so and 80
took a notion after 10 years OF ms
loving attendance, that she would
leave him and so and live with the
daughter. This caused the assault
The Jury found the prisoner guilty ol
common assault and recommended
him to mercy.

ATHENA ANTICIPATES
ANOTHER BIG CROP
FARMERS GREATLY PLEASED
AT THE PRESENT OUTLOOK
Wheat Hay Harvest Is On-Grain Will
Run from 40 TO so Bushels Per

(special correspondence }

Athena, ore, June 25.-Wheat hay
harvest is now on in full blast. Near
ly all of the farmers in this section
of the country find the combined
harvester the most economical ma
chine for the harvesting Of their crop
and in order to enter the field with
the harvester it is necessary to cut
a strip around the field so that the
machine will not crush the grain at
the outer edge of the grain. The
wheat cut for this purpose Is used
for hay.
The farmers are highly pleased with
the outlook for crops this year as they
are finding that their crops are
great deal better than they are re-
ported. 1t is now estimated by some
of the leading farmers Of this place
that the wheat in this vicinity will run
from 40 to so bushels per acre again.
The recent rains have brought great
change in the wheat prospects. Har-
vest will be early in this section TINS
year. and it is believed that many
combines will go to work here by the
middle of July. and some VIII start
in about ten days.

has been noticed lately that some of

Enquiries show that, with the ex-

"They are receiving a monthly sub

pearance of British influence. 1t is

only az one is content to bleed

thru sacrifice. The word bless
comes from the Anglo.Saxon
word for Blood And tile idea
dimly aimed at is this; before
you can really bless fellow

o. it. We can do great deal

smiles, by gifte, by kind words,
by cups of cold water. But at

sprinkle that soul or country
with your blood.

that the builders could not

The rude sea came in and took
away the result of their efforts

they sacrificed a human life
and that gave the foundations

is that there is no gian only
