The Provisional President is commandern-chef
of the army and navy executes the laws, defends the
constitution, appoints officers with the advice and
consent of the assembly, and in his other functions
resembles the President of the United States.
The judiciary is independent, but the judges
are appointed by the President with the advice Of the
assembly, and may be removed only upon impeach
ment and trial.
This constitution is to remain in effect until
within ten months, the President shall convene a
kaohu or national convention, which will promu
gate the permanent constitution Of China The ma
tional assembly consists of five members from each
OF the eighteen provinces, Inner Mongolia Outer
Mongolia, and Tibet, and one member from Kokonor,

ince or district may elect each member to have one
vote in the assembly. Thus, it will be seen, the
provisional assembly in its present uncameral form
is rather senate than house of representatives.
This constitution cannot fail to be Of great in

have followed American and not European forms in
establishing their new government Japan adopted
the constitution Of Germany, and the French republic
that of republican Rome. With these two exceptions

account, organized since the beginning of the nine

THE END OF DOUBT AT HAND.

The long suspense, with its alterations between
hope and fear, is nearing the end. Tomorrow-per-
haps nght-will bring the story of the tragedy of
the Titanic.
1t seems certain as anything can be in a realm
whence the miraculous is excluded, that there are no
survivors of the great ship, save those whom the
Carpatha is bringing into New York tonight. There
will be many changes in the lists of the lost and the
saved, due to errors in wireless transmission, and
the completion of the details But in a large way,
the world pretty we'll knows the extent of the first
horror. 1t knows that about 6s5 have been saved,
about ,534 lost 1t knows that for the greater part
men stood back and gave their chance for life to the
women and children.
Now we shall receive the narrowing story of the
last scenes We shall know with what honor Ameri-
can manhood and British discipline came through the
fearful test. Probably there is survivor who can
tell the story of the actual last moments the fatal
plunge of the mighty wreck to the bottom of the cold
Atlantic. The ships lights were out; the crews of
the lfeboats had desperatvey rowed away as far as
possible from the ships side to be safe from the
maelstrom her sinking would cause; it was a night
of inky darkness and dense fog
But of tragic scenes, heart-breaking partngs
heroic deeds in the hours of the terror, there will be
more than enough narratons. Who does not remem-

teen, parting forever at the rail Of La Bourgogne

lifeboat; the father was to remain among the doomed

men of the Titanic. AS yet know absolutely moth

suffering from pneumonia or all the worst horrors
of the icy sea.
Today, friends and relatives may yet cling to the
faint hope that fingers in the fact that about 100 pas
sengers are reported saved but yet unnamed. The
world at large and Americans in particular, will hope
and pray that the completed story will be one worthy
of the traditions of American manhood.

Former Congressman and

for ten years, and one Of the most prom

state, died at his home, 1900 New

been prominent in the exclusive social
circles of the Capital, and the death
of Mr.. Hun this morning was a shock
to members Of the Diplomatic Corps,
who knew Mr.. Hum in an official ca
pacity.
Besides his wife, who is prostrated by
the shock, Mr.. Huff is survived by four
children, Lloyd B. HUI, and Julian B.

Julia Murdock Says Schumann-Heirk
Has Old PoUer to Charm With Soma

An incessant downpour of rain was
not sufficient yesterday TO prevent an
equally incessant outpour of the enthu-
siastic admirers of Madame Schumann-
Heink. The Columbia Theater where
the great German contralto gave her
concert, was filled from pit to gallery,
and that the recital was thoroughly en-
joyed by everyone was indicated by the
almost continuous applause when the
madame was not singing. So delighted
were her auditors, in fact, that she was
forced to return for Just one more"
after her regular program had been
completed.
The singers voice never was better.
1t had all those old, coaxing, bewitching
charms and beauties which long ago
gave it's owner high, II not the very
highest, rank among vocal artists.
Regret was felt by many in the au-
dience who did not understand the
German language that the program had
not been turned squarely around, so
that, instead of four numbers in Ger
man and one in English, there had been
four in English. with a German number
thrown in, perhaps, as a concession to
the singers nativity.
This regret had its source in the
demonstration by Madame Schumann-
Heink that she is just as much at home
with our language as she is with her
own. In the few English selections OF
her program she shaded the words with
as much delicacy of enunciation and
meaning as the most perfect speaker OF
English could have done.
Rejecting on this, many OF her hear
ars wondered just why she sticks sc
persistently to that tongue which. to
those who do not understand 1t, is fol
the most part a riot of dreadful gut
terals.
However, the madame's superb art
was so delightful that one forgot gut,

A FRIEND OF CLARK
SAYS A KIND WORD

To the Editor Of THE TINES:
Lawyer" in Mondays Times asks:
Who is Champ Clark and what does he
stand for?' When one says he does
not know Mr.. Clark as a public man
he confesses unjustifiable ignorance.
Mr.. Clark's voice and votes have been
part Of the history Of legislation in this
country for some time. There is an i'm
pressive poem that l once read, entitled
How Little We Know OF Each Other"
This would apply especially to a man
who fires from the dark at a man
standing in the open.
AS to Mr.. Clark as a man I will say
l believe his ancestors, or a part Of
bred in old Kentucky" and was reared
there. The standards are high in Ken
lucky. and I believe Missouri demands
to be shown" In the rural districts
of this country they know each other
The writer saw something of the home
life OF Mr. Clark and knows II is of
the old-fashioned kind that furnishes
the salt of the earth"
Can Lawyer belong to the class that
we hear some talk from just now who
are solicitous about the occupants Of the
of the -Four Hundred" King George
and Queen Mary are making the smart
set of England and America feel very
unwelcome at their court just now, and
possibly they seek a new home at the
White House.
Perhaps Lawyer didn't intend any
thing serious. If that Is the case l with
draw my remarks.

made much Of publicly. No woman's
name has ever been mentioned in any
inaugural address Of any President since
the beginning of the Government. No
woman, in recognition of her own abil-
ity. has ever been entertained at dinner
at the White House. 1t Is illegal for
the American Government even to
tender thanks to woman, however
great her service may be TO It. No wom-
an was ever granted a national or state
funeral: even the funeral of a Presi-
dents wife is always private, the time
OF her burial or evidences of mourning
being unobserved throughout the land"
do not know that all the above state
inents are true, but II would seem that
in the case Of Clara Barton the Govern
Inent ought to make some recognition of
her achievements and show her some
honor In her great modesty, she re-
quested to be buried at her old home,
but / understand that otherwise she
would have been honored to the extent
of being buried at Arlington.
Is the nation content to show her
other public honor to Clara Barton?
