This is the little girls. first en-
gagement. Her mother, Of
course, travels with her, and the
tutor and the governess. She
travels in state, as BELTS a star.
Now, note the marvel. "Fhe
Littlest Rebel" is a wartime play.
What does Mary Minter know of
the horrors of war? What does
she know of the South, of those
dark days when the Union armies
were closing in on Richmond?
She has caught the spirit of the
South, which she has not seen:
She speaks her lines in the soft
drawl of the South, but it is not
that which is so strange. 1t is
that she is, in her heart, during
six night performances and two
matinees, little rebel and a
daughter of a Southern gentle
man who hates the tdam-yanks."
And with it ali she is a pink
little girl and as fat as butter.

THE END OF THE MANCHU
DYNASTY

DYNASTY
| The Manchu dynasty has abdicated
after holding the Chinese Imperia
throne for nearly three centuries The
! deere of abdication will be of historic
moment. 1t reads as follows:
The whole country is tending to.
| ward republican form of govern
ment. 1t is the will of Heaven, and
it is certain that we could not reject
the peoples desire for the sake OF
one family's honor and glory.
We, the Dowager Empress and the
Emperor, hand over the sovereignty
to the people We decide the form of
government to be constitutional re-
public.
In this time of transition, in order
to unite the South and the North, we
appoint Yuan Shi-kai to organize a
provisional government, consulting
the peoples army regarding the union
of the five peoples, Manchus, Chinese,
Monoglians, Mohammedans, and Tibet
ans These people jointly constitute
the great state of Chung Hwa Ming
kus Ca republic of China)
We retire to peaceful life and will
enjoy the respectful treatment of the
nation
This was signed by the Empress
Dowager for herself and the little
Emperor, by Yuan Shi-kai as Prime
Minister, and also by the other min
listers, On the day following the pub
ilcation Of the decree, there appeared
the first of Yuan Shi-kai's messages
as "Presidnt Plenipotentiary of the
Republic the title which he now re-
quests the Powers to recognize. A
part of this message is also worth
quoting:
Yuan Shi-kai, by virtue of the power
vested in him to establish republic
can form of government in China, de-
clares that, whereas the Emperor of
the To Ching ("great Pure') dynasty
! has abdicated, China shall henceforth
be known, as the Ching Hwa (Chi-
nese) Republic and will adopt re-
publican form of government.
While a provisional government is
being established, all Ministers who
are credited to foreign governments
shall act for the time being as diplo-
matte representatives, and shall con-
tinue to perform their duties as here
to fore.
While Yuan Shi-kai was doubtless
sincere in believing constitutional
monarchy to be the best government
for China, he must become impressed
as has every one, by the unexpectedly
widespread demand for republic,
Whether under one or the other gov
ernmental form. however, this strong
man of China" would doubtless be the
real wielder of power.-Out Look.
