SAYS Emperor Has FIed.


Peking, Oct 23--It q rumored that
the emperor has left Peking. but the
rumor In not confirmed. 1t Is prob
ably to be ascribe0 to the fact that
the families Of numerous palace sery-
ants are going into the country and
that the servants are asking to go.
There Is another uncomfortable rumor
that the prince regent is dead. This
probably is based on the fact that he
has not attended meetings Of the cabi-
net for several days.
The Brii-h legation has received a
dispatch which predicts that unless
General Yin Chang wins a decisive
victory withir the next few days the
whole OF the valley OF the Yangtse
will rise In rebellion. The government
maintains telegraphic comm unication
with Singyangchow, near where Yin
Chang has modified 10000 men. 1t
was stated officially that the troops
were at Kwangshui. which is further
south. The difference is important, as

San Francisco, Oct. 23.-On the door
OF tha imperial Chinese consulate rev
olutionist leaders posted proclama-
tion calling on all Chinese loyal to the
revolution to cut OFF their cues at once
or they would not be known as revo-
lutionists, 1t Is anticipated that this
action will be followed by the elimi-
nation of the surplus hair of the Chi
nese generally in this city. 1t is un-
derstood that the notice was a result
Of instructions given by the leaders OF
the revolution In China.
Ton Lui, who until few months
ago was the dean Of commercial col
Iege in Hankow. says that the reports
Of the massacre of thousands OF Man
chus In Hankow are impossible. He
said:
SIN the whole district surrounding
Hankow there are not more than a
hundred Manchus, including men. woy
men and children. In the imperial
army which fought against the revo-
iutionists there are perhaps a dozen or
SO leaders who are Manchus. all the
rest being residents of various prov
inces. The story ofsthe massacre must
have been sent out by the imperial
authorities to diseredit the cause Of
the revolutionists"

Judge Berdwell Is still determined
10 give both sides the widest lati-
tudes In examining veuaremen to de-
termine whether challenge for
ss.s
when court reconvened today. He
gave District Attorney Frederick
and Attorney Darrow,- for the de-
fense, every leaway In questioning
George W Mckee. WHO already has
been challenged by the defense be-
cause he held to the belief that the
Times building was destroyed by
dynamite.
Judge Bordweli did this because
ho did not care TO elaborate on a
ruling already made in which he
held that anyone who demanded
positive evidence regarding the
cause of the explosion in order to
dislodge any previously formed opin-
ion would be unsatisfactory as a.
juror. Both state and defense is
anxious to have this ruling broaden
ed and made specific, because If this
is done the work OF securing jury
will be simplified.
So far Judge Bordwell has shown
no desire to do SO.

DON'T Set Hens
IN THE GOAL BIN
Hattiesburg Sage Has Shown the
Great Risk Done in Do
ing So.

There is a naughty little twinkle in
the weather mans eye. At least ii is
so said by those who claim to have
seen him. And what these people be-
lieve is, that there is really some
thing back of the twinkle. At all
odds they caught that wink" and it
is believed the weather man has his
hands altogether too full-especially
in the claims department, where
grouches are filed by those here and
there who don't like what is served
from time to time-to be winking for
nothing.
Now the surmise is, on the part Of
those who claim to have seen the
wink and the twinkle, that Mr. Wealth
erman had just previously looked at
the calendar and then been reminded
thereby that March is still ahead and
has within its limits 81 days. They
suspect also that someone had at
about the same time reminded him
that Hattiesburg recently had some
warm days. not few of them in fact.
Further suspicion is, that standing
the two reminders up side by side
March on the one hand and the up-to-
now spring-like and summer-lke days
on the other-a conclusion was reach
ed by the weather dispenser that
caused the wink.
Again, one of the older citizens of
Hattiesburg has been keeping pretty
close tabs on the winter weather as
signments OF the past Is years, and
cites the fact that during one season
the allotment of cold weather failed to
arrive before March, and that when
it did come nobody had to be rung up
by telephone and told that it had
reached the city. Telephones sure
enough were busy every day that
March, but it was case of Hello,

and coal wagons were driven madly
through the streets.
That's how it was one year; and
the conditions are vouched for by
a man right here in Hattiesburg who
literally kept books on the weather
and claims to be giving out straight
goods. And out of his knowledge, ex-
perience and observation he has more
to tell. This winter season is, he
states, the most unusual in character
of any season in the past 10 years
with one exception. That winter, the
one exception, was a season with no
cold weather after Santa Claus made
his annual round and filled up the
stockings and decorated the Christmas
trees.
And Just to show how eccentric the
weather man can be, the same weather
historian tells of another season, which
grew cold in October and served Hat
tiesburg with the same line of chilled
goods. right along until May-six
months straight. There was no sit.
ting out and enjoying the mild days
that winter, people were too busy
feeding fires. And if they got any
time TO sit down at all they sat down
in close 'juxtaposition to the fire, just
as close as they dared without running
too much risk of singing the nap of
their clothing, or starting the paint
running-if they used it.
Such is the climatography of the
past Is years in Hattiesburg, in spots
and it serves to show how the weather
man may at any time have some very
queer things up his sleeve to dror
down whenever his whimsical tempera
ments gets into one of its anomalous
moods. And so, how about the forth
coming March? Will the 2Sth of Feb
ruary, or possibly Mr.. Washington
birthday mark transition from hal

to period when for a month or S,
the wires between Hattiesburg homes

GOLD BRICK GAME
HAS new TWIST
Block of Metal Worth $1,000, but Cash.
Ter Refused it for $14
Debt.

New York, Feb. 14.-That is might
be hard to dispose of real gold brick
worth $1,000 at any price in New York
has been demonstrated to the salts
faction of half dozen Canadian mine
owners who are here for directors
meetings.
They were lunching together last
night at an uptown hotel, when a dis
cussion arose as to the possibility OF
selling a real gold brick to a New
Yorker. One of the mining men had
in his pocket a small brickette of pure
gold, which he had brought from Bri-
ish Columbia as a sample of the pro
duct of new mine there. To settle
the controversy, he agreed to offer it
to the dining room cashier in payment
of the luncheon check.
He approached the cashier in his
most affable style and displayed the
block. of metal. He insisted thatethe
gold brick was of genuine metal and
suggested that he would give it to the
cashier in payment of the $14 lunch.
con check
The cashier had made his home in
New York for ten years, and he did
not hesitate to inform the genial
stranger that he would not pay thirty
cents for the gold brick He was so
confident that an attempt was being
made to victimize him that he called
the house detective. When the latter
hustled around to arrest the swindler
and recognized the mining man, he
was shown the brick and informed
that it contained 81 300 worth of pure
gold

Chronic ULCERS

Where the blood is pure any wound

Whenever the ulcer becomes chronic
it is because this healing quality of
the blood has been impaired by some
impurity in the circulation, and the

can heal where the blood is bad be-
cause the morbid impurities on which
it thrives are constantly deposited
into it by the burdened circulation.

SENATE BLOCKS HOUSE
REAPPORTIONMENT BILL.

Washington, March 4.--There will
be no congressional reapportionment
by the sixty-first congress. This was
decided at o'clock this morning.
The reapportionment bill fixing the
number of representatives at 4S3,
which passed the house early in the
session, had for various reasons. been
|allowed to remain in the senate COM
mittee on census until yesterday when
in the absence OF Chairman La Fol-
lette. Senator Hale sought to have II
reported for action before the final
adjournment of congress.
Accordingly the committee was poll

Hale was busily engaged in conference
pertaining to appropriation bills and
up to that time had not made his re-
port on the reapportionment meas
ure.
In the meantime opposition to the
house basis OF apportionment had
arisen in the senate and several sem
ators privately expressed themselves

house membership should not be in
creased.
