application for the appointment of an

H. Reilly of the district court that he
is far from dead and will resist any
action of the court so to declare him.

has ever been heard from him and
his mother, Mrs. Christina Herbold
of Rhodes, mourned her son as dead.
She made application to have the
court act and decree Herbold dead,
so that his third interest in the estate
of his father, Henry Herbold, might
be administrated The estate is a
valuable one.

Cedar Rapids, Dec. 15.--According
to the modern Interpretation, Crimi-
mails need to be treated and not pun
ished. And the same thing applies
to delinquent children.
So. when ArlO Wilson, II, appeared
in the superior court, charged with
cutting Earlvin DunsOn on the finger
Friday afternoon after school in the
Wells school yard, and with other
acts Of violence, with a provision III
the information, filed by Mrs. Opal
Dunson, that he be sent to the state
reform school; following a Consulta-
ton between Mr.. and Mrs. Jesse f.
Wilson, Mrs. Dunson, County AttOr-
ncy McManus, Miss Eva J. Stevens,
of Wells school, Truant Of
icer GiasCUff, and several other par
ties concerned, it was decided that
instead of sending young Wilson to
the reform school, that his adenoids
and tonsiIS should be cut out.
It is believed that the adenodal
growth and enlarged tonsils have
been the cause of much of young Will
sens meanness and that If he is re-
lieved of both that he will become
his normal self. The operation is
to be performed soon.

New York, Dec. 14.-Reports OF po-
Iitical unrest in Brazil due to alleged

here today by American passengers
arriving on the steamship Acre from
Brazilian and West Indian ports. For
obvious reasons the passengers, men
with business connections in Brazil,
declined to be quoted
Rumors in Rio De Janeiro, they said
were that plans we're afoOt to place
at the head of the government Dantas
Barreta, governor of the state of Per-
nambuco. who has resigned and will
relinquish his office in January.
Dissatisfaction is felt by certain
classes, it is alleged, with present
government officials but official condi-
tons and in the matter of concessions
to foreigners. 1t is was stated that
high officials of the army and navy
are in sympathy with the proposed
change in government.
For nearly year talk of unrest and
plots have reached this country from
Brazil but the reports have been either
minimized or denied by the Brazilian
government. President Braz was elect.

WASHINGTON SENDS
NOTE TO FRANCE
U. s. DEMANDS RELEASE OF GER.
MANS SEIZED ON SHIPS.
THE ACTION IS CALLED ILLEGAL
Six Teutcns Taken From Steamers
by Warships-Message Couched
in Friendly Terms and
Cites Precedent.

Washington, Dec. 15.-The United
States government cabled Ambassa
dor Sharp at Paris, for presentation
to the French foreign Office, a note
vigorously protesting against the re-
moval by the French cruiser Des-
cartes of six Germans and Austrians
from the American steamships Caro-
lima, Coamo and San Juan.
Immediate release of the men was
asked on the ground that the seizure
of citizens of any nation from an
American vessel on the high seas is
without legal justification and consti-
tutes a fragrant violation of American
rights.
The note was dispatched by Secre-
tary Lansing with the full approval of
President Wilson. 1t is understood to
have been discussed by the president
with his cabinet at the days meeting.
Precedent for u. S. Action.
Couched in friendly terms, the COM
munication gives the American point
of view emphatically and cites prece-
dents employed in the case of Au-
gust Piepenbrink, German, who
was removed from the American ship
Windber by the French cruiser Condo
in November of last year and re-
leased after representations by the
InitCd States.
Attention is directed to the fact
that the men removed from the ships
were not embodied in the armed
forces Of the enemy" as that term is
used in the declaration of London.
It is asserted, however, that there is
no justification for the removal of
subjects of a nation which is an
enemy of France from an American
vessel on the high seas bound to a
neutral port, even If they could prop
erly be regarded as military persons.
- Quote FRANCES Own Views.s ~.
To support this position, 1t is I'M
derstood, the note points to the rules
set down by the French minister of
foreign affairs in a note sent during
the Civil war to the French minister
to the United States in regard to the
removal of the Confederate commits
sionors, Mason and SIidell, from the
steamship Trent.

Copyrighted in 1915 by United

lie statement by the emperor Yuan
Shi-Kai cabled today to the United
Press, the Chinese emperor makes

cry effort to cement the friendship

The Chinese emperor's statement
to the United Press is the first infor-
nation that the government would be

will submit to the will of the people

citation which is said to have a mem
bership of about 10000 in the United
States, and 100000 in North. Central
and South America.
The nation that refused recognition
to those who assassinated President
Madero," the letter said, cannot in
justice or sincerity recognize in China
the traitors who seek to wrest from
the people their hard won freedom, or
to the monorchy which they seek to
erect"
General Hwang Hsing, former min
lister of war of the Chinese republic
will leave Media, Pa, where he has
been recuperating from an illness, for
China as soon as possible it was an
nounced here by Tong King Chong.

gram from the aged general, stating
that he believed he would be needed
in his country to further the recently
announced movement, headed by Shen
Chun Shen, former viceroy of the pro-
vince of Canton under the ManChu dy-
nasty.
The Chez Kung Tong, according to
its president is seeking to oppose ac-
lively the accession of President Yuan
Shi-Kai to the throne by fostering a
movement headed by Shen Chun Shen
former viceroy of Canton. who is to
be made provisional president of China
in the event Yuan Shi-Kai ascends the
throne and the Chez Kung Tong is
successful.
