RANDOM CLIPPINGS
A New Page.

A few days ago the press dis
patches carried an item to the effect
that American capitalists were pre-
pairing to lend the sum of ten mil
lion taels, or about, six million dol
lars, to the people of China who are
fighting for republic. Now the an
nouncement is made that the En-
peror of China has abdicated-
again.
The latest abdication of the EN-
peror means less to those who are
not familiar with affairs in China
than the willingness of American
financiers to lend money to the
rebels. The latter item Is recorded
in terms of our own experience 1t
seems clear that the end of Man
churian rule in China has come.
All of which indicates that ire
mendous new chapter in history is
about to be written. We count peo-
Pt0 " ZIG Ai1lAiOA III AllS OulLeu
States. China counts by the hun
bred million. And every traveller
who has written seriously about the
Chinese has succeeded in obscuring
the images which have been placed
in our minds by other serious travel
ers.
All that we know of the Chinese
Is based upon a rigamarole invented
by Bret Harte. to which is added a
tradition that no Occidental mind
can hope to comprehend the Oriental
mind. The Chinese "all look alike
to us" and we consider 1t sign Of
superiority to acknowledge the fact.
Nevertheless, we know that the
Chinese, at his best, Is peace-lov-
ing man; that he Is amazingly in
dustrious; that his inventions have
enriched and puzzled the world for
hundreds Of years; that, among
other things, he 1rst manufactured
gunpowder, and that he fought with
tremendous effectiveness on one
famous occasion when he had an
English soldier to lead him.
Perhaps other nations do not
share our stupid, if good-natured
contempt for the Chinese. But does
it not seem probable that all the
world may be made to take notice
when the new page in the career Of
the Chinese Nation is tYned?-st

SERIOUS ACCIDENT
NARROWLY AVfRTED
Mr. Mcintosh, of Hattesbure, Has
Narrow Escape From Death at
Richton.
Special TO The Ne1os.

Richton, Miss, March 16.-What
came near being very serious acct
dent was narrowly everted here Thurs.
day afternoon, when Mr.. Mcintosh.
travelling salesman from Hatties-
burg. together with Jake Dantziger, his
driver, had close call for their lives
while they and a string of rapidly
moving freight cars were both in the
act of passing a given point at the
same moment.
me men were in a top buggy, drawn
by two horses, the rig belonging to the
Mccormick stables here. They had
driven across the main line tracks of
the N. O., M. & c. railroad and had
come to the spur leading out to Bent
ley & Emery's mill. The southbound
local freight train was switching on
the yards at the time, and was at that
particular moment showing a number
of cars out on the siding. A house
situated just at the crossing prevented
the occupants of the buggy
from seeing the danger until it
was almost too late. Mcintosh Jump
ed safely from the buggy, but Danzig-
er in trying to rein the team off the
track was unable to get out before
the rear car Of the train bore down
upon them. In the crash that follow
ed, one horse was cut almost entirely |
in two. the other had hind foot COM |
pletely severed and the buggy was
torn into smithereens, derailing two
pair of the car trucks.
But from it all in some way, unex-
'lainable even by himself, Dantziger
unhurt.
According to the testimony of the
wo men and by that of several mill
lands who were working nearby, the
greater part of the blame for the
catastrophe is plainly upon the rail-
Dad company, the latter having fail
