CHINESE
REVOLT ENDS
Declarationof independence
of Revolutionary Prov
inces Abrogated
FIGHTING STILL
GOING ON
Rebel Governor Chang
Goes to Hong
Kong

| Hongkong, Aug. g. The southern
Chinese rebellion has been practically
suppressed and the declaration of indie
! pendence of the revolutionary provinces
abrogated. Reports from Canton say the
populace there is celebrating the ending
OF the uprising with public rejoicings and
the explosion of irecrackers.
1t is said Gen. Lung Chi-Kuang, the
victorious commander of the government
troops from Kwangsi, has been appoint
ed governor-general of the province Of
Kwangtung and his brother has been
nominated his assistant.
The rebel governor, Chang of Kwang-
tung, who said at the beginning of the
revolutionary movement that he disap-
proved of the independent policy of the
southern states was expected to arrive
in Hongkong last night. He shot his two
military advisors Chung Wing and
Wang Suit-Sun-and an army officer,
whom he suspected of intrigue.
The artillery men of Canton killed
their lieutenant-coIonel and then marched
to the governors offices, where they
looted the treasury.
One of the shells fired by the artillery
man fell into the projects Office and
killed about a dozen persons.
Fighting continues along the west
river, where the rebels have captured a
gunboat.
The chief problem of the authorities
consists in dealing with the hooters.

Berlin in a few days and was not
back in Washington again for several
weeks. On the night after his return
he met Miss Winterton at reception
given by member of the cabinet He
chatted with her for a few minutes,
not for moment suspecing that she
held a secret that would make her
rich and secure his dismissal from the
German diplomatic corps In disgrace.
Time wore on. The diplomatic bust
ness bearing upon the building Of the
canal was settled, the necessary trea-
ties were signed and the work COM
menced. Meanwhile Count Rudolph
and Miss winterton were thrown oc-
casionally together. The countess was
especially pleased with her and often
invited her to her house. The count
had no idea of marrying an American
wife, but felt that II he were so fnclin-
ed Miss Winterton would be his choice.
Washington gossip had It that Miss
Winterton had set her cap for the Ger
man secretary Of legation, but there
was not word of truth in the report
The count was a man of the world
and, above all, diplomat. He asked
her to be his wife simply because he
made up his mind that he couldn't very
well get on without her. Added to this.
he knew that when he introduced her
In Berlin she would take high social
rank there. She was quite clever and
passably comely. But above all. there
was a high bred air about her that
would always make her prominent In
any society in which she might be In
troduced. So he proposed to her and
was accepted.
One evening not long after the en-
gagement they were sitting in the
drawing room. Miss Winterton arose.
went to the bookcase, took out the
book she had taken before, opened 1t
and said:
Your hiding place is empty today"
Rudolph was appalled,. He had never
used that book before for concealment
and we'll remembered the one occasion.
Then she told him how she had seen
him hide his document and how she
had RETAINED from making fortune.
II cannot understand it." he said.
The young countess has become very
popular In Berlin.

Longfellow said that he attempted to

present, said. "A pleasing tale, Illus

NAP0LE0N'S ARMY EAGLES.
They Wore Patterned After the An
cient Symbol of the Caesars.

Clcnt oyfnBCl OF Nnc 1dcadTbs
Eagles lasted only from 1906 to
Waterloo. Before then it had been the
custom In armies to carry huge I'M
wieIdy tags mounted on poles which.
while they afforded rallying point for
their corps. also drew the enemy's fire.
1t remained for Napoleon to revive the
ancient symbol OF the Caesars.
At first an eagle was presented to
every battalion OF infantry and every
squadron of horse But owing to the
number of eagles captured this allow
ance was cut down. All battalion
eagles we're withdrawn and one eagle
was carried by each regiment of foot
and cavalry. In 1912 a still further
reduction was made and in some cases
line regiments were ordered to leave
their eagles In their arsenal. These
standards were also taken from all
regiments of light cavalry and one
eagle sufficed occasionally for an In
fantry brigade.
The eagle itself was eight inches in
height and nine inches across the
wings. 1t stood on brass block three
inches square and weighed three and
half pounds.
Modern coIors, cumbrous as they are,
are as nothing compared to the old
ones, which were as difficult TO hide as
the big drum. Thus there existed a
regular system for saving eagles.
Sometimes. when the tide of war ran
adversely. they were unscrewed and
put into haversacks or great coat
pockets. At other times they were
buried. thrown into ponds or rivers,
broken up, hidden in hollow trees. and,
most humiliating of all, stuffed into
some dead horse, to be hauled out
subsequently. -Harper's Weekly.

BRITISH SUBMARINES
ARE MISSING
Two of the Vessels that Engaged in Re-
cent Manoeuvres Are Sought
BY DestroYers.

London, Aug. 1.-Two British sub
marines which were engaged in the re-
cent naval manoeuyres are missing and
destroyers have been sent out from the
Rosyth Naval station in Scotland to
search for them. At the admiralty it
is thought that the failure of the sub
marines to report probably is due to
their commanders ignorance of the fact
that the naval manoeuvres came to an
end Unexpectedly on Saturday.

Diplomacy
By F. TOWNSEND SMITH

Count Rudolph Breitstein, secretary
Of the German embassy TO the United
States at Washington, was called one
afternoon TO the private Office OF his
chief, who said to him:
There Is the paper you are to take
to Berlin. Take 1t home with you and
keep 1t In your hiding place for impor.
tant documents till your departure.
But be careful. IL the French Office
should get hold OF 1t we would be ruin
ed. 1t refers TO payment for the
French work on the Panama canal"
Count Rudolph took the paper, at
the same time saying to the ambassa-
dor:
ut is said that no spying is done in
Washington, but / do not believe 1t.
/ have reason to suspect that my hid
ing place-a little safe in a wall in my
home-is known. Let the place where
l keep the key be known as well and
a document might as well be laid out
on table l will hide this paper till
Saturday, the day leave"
Miss Agnes winterton, the daughter
of an admiral of the United States
navy, but whose father was dead,
maintained a social position In Wash
ington that she had inherited, but
which she could not have retained In
poverty in any other city except
Washington. Miss Winterton was sit
ting in the drawing room of Count
Breitstein, having sent up her card
to the counts mother, with whom he
lived, when latchkey was put in the
front door lock, and Count Rudolph
himself entered the house.
The rain was coming down in tor
rents, and the room In which Miss
Winterton sat was quite dark from the
storm and the heavy window curtains.
The count came into the room, where
she was sitting in a shaded corner,
and, though he looked about the room,
did not see her. But he wore glasses
and had not wiped the moisture from
them after entering the house Going
to bookcase, he took down volume
from the left hand corner of the top
shelf, opened the volume, put paper
in it, closed the case and left the room
unconscious of having been observed.
Mounting to his room, he threw him.

fore dressing for dinner.
The countess, who was changing
from street to dinner costume. kept
Miss Winterton waiting some time.
After Count Rudolph left the drawing
room the young lady, yielding to
natural feminine curiosity, went to
the bookcase and took down the book In
which Rudolph had placed the paper
and. opening the former. took out a
document which she read.

and women, though more likely than
men to yield to some petty foible. are
by no means behind the sterner sex in

BLOODY BATTLE.
Incident To Strike of Hop Pickers in
California.

LaHI01nld.
Sacramento, Cal, Aug. 5.--Five com
panes of the California National Guard
yesterday policed the hop fields OF
Wheatland, in Yuba county, where four
men were killed and four badly wounded
Sunday in a clash between striking hop
pickers and a sheriff's posse.
The strikers, led by Industrial Work
ers of the World organizers, are still
in an ugly mood, but Adjutant General
Forbes expressed the belief that if he
could prevent a meeting of the strikers
and some of the bands of armed citizens
who Sunday night were intent upon
vengeance, there was not likely to be
further demonstration.
The news of the death of District At
torney E. T. MAXWELL and Deputy Sher-
if T. Riordan and the wounding of the
Sheriff George Yoss and Others of his
posse spread rapidly through the farming
country Sunday night and volunteer
