SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. At is the
sentiment in the oriental quarter here
and reports from Los Angeles, Seattle.
Portland, Vancouver b. c.. and other
coast cities Indicate that the view is
general, that there win be another revo-
luton inside of a year
Revolutionary agents have been work
ing tirclessly all up and down the Pacific
slope and much money unquestionably
has been sent from the United States TO
finance an uprising.
Because President Yuan Shi Kai. while
Just as reactionary, is a stronger man
than any of the great officials of the
fallen Manchu regime, the revolutionists
assert conditions in China are worse
than before the last overturning. What
the agitators want is a republic on so
advanced a type as to average on a con
dition of pure socialism.
The view is freely expressed in China
town that matters would be greatly fa-
cilitated by President Yuan's assassina-
tion and good Judges of the situation
say his life will be an extremely poor
risk for an insurance company so long
as he remains in office.

the leprosy of the soul. Why men

derstanding.
"Leprosy of the body cannot be
cured; not so with leprosy of the soul
There is a remedy that can wash the
soul as white as the snow. If tonight
you have the leprosy of the soul

you whole. The poor physical lepe1

RICH MANS SON
ON TRIAL FOR
MURDER
THE MYSTERIOUS KILLING OF A
CHAUFFEUR is BLAMED ON
MALCOLM CLIFFORD

Albany, N. Y, Nov. 5.-Malcolm Gif-
ford, Jr, the 19-year old son of a
wealthy manufacturer of Hudson, N.
Y, will probably be retired here on
the charge of killing Frank j. Clute,
a chauffeur, on April l, 1918. The
case is expected 70 be set for the
months term of court. Clifford was
tried early in the summer, but the
jury disagreed
Young Clifford, who was released a
few weeks ago from the Albany peni-
tentiary on bail, IS recovering his
health, and his friends state he has
been sent to private school.
Clute was shot to death while driy-
ing an unidentified man to Troy from
here The passenger shot Clute IN
the back of the head, robbed him,
threw his body into ditch and fled
The slayer was known to have worn a
gray overcoat and d light fedora hat
Il
On the same night, April l, 1913,
Clifford, who had been expelled from
a private school a month before, but
had never gone home, left the house
of a friend in Troy, ostensibly TO at
tend dance. He was garbed in a
dress suit, gray oYercoat and a
Hight fedora hat, it is said. But in
tstead of going to the dance 1mme
6iately, he disappeared. Clifford lat
or appeared at the dance. Witnesses
who testified before the grand jury
stated that his clothing was soiled
The next day, it was testified, the
youth put his overccat in one friends
suit case, his hat IN another, borrow
cd cap and left for home.
The police found Clifford at Chath
lam, Mass. and brought him here tC
answer the charge. His parents were
unaware of his predicament until his
arrest. The boy bore a good reputa
tion in Hudson, and a great deal O
sympathy is manifested for his par

In a recent number Of Farm and
the national farm paper pub
lished at Springfield, Ohio, Herbert
Quick, the editor writes an editorian
entitled "On With the Rat-Killing!"
in which he gives many interesting
facts about rats and other dangers as
enemies to men:
The city of Philadelphia is appro
plating $4,000 to be used in 'extermi-
reting the rats of the city. They are
feared as carriers of bubonic plague:
Ten thousand dollars is not
CROUCH It will finance an annoyance
tc the rats and that is about all.
IF we could give rat-killing a high
sounding name, perhaps we could en-
list in the work the able men who
should devote their lives to it.
"The matter should be studied
much more carefully than heretofore
Il should receive some such general
attention from institutions of learn

sprays, and fungicides.

the rats into the river. The human

Mr.. Fisher and Gus Hill have collabor-

called Mutt and Jeff in Mexico" A
new musical score has been written
with the result that the new Mutt

songs and folk games. Part one of
the program concluded with the ap.

part two was conducted by the chill

portion of the entertainment took the
form of one-act operetta, While

celebrate the occasion of the new

the Brownies, entertain the children,
introducing such well known charac-
tiers as Mother Goose, Little Boy Blue,
Bo-Peep and Santa Claus. Several
birds made their appearance and
scored a great hit with their imper-
aonation Of the children's feathered
friends. The rainbow and the breezes
did their part and in grand finale
