JUMPS HIS BOND SPURNS A THRONE
President of China Will Not
Become Monarch.
He Has No Ambition to Found
New Dynasty.

Pekin, July "a remarkable inter-
view between President Yuan Shi kai
and General FenS Kuo-ChanE in COM
mand of the forces on the lower
Yangtse, is filling the Pekin press.
Referring to the many rumors afloat
to the effect that titles of nobility
We're to be revived as a preliminary to
a monarchy, the president stated def
initely that even if he seized the
throne that would not increase his
present powers, while as for trans
uniting the imperial yellow to his
sons, none of them was fitted for
that honor, which would mean the
collapse of any new dynas ty.''
General Feng Kuo-Chang inter
rupted saying that the people of the
south of China would not oppose any
such change ultimately though he
thought it was too early now. The
president declared, in heightened
voice:
You and others seem still to believe
L harbor secret ambitions. l affirm
positively that when / sent my sons
to study in England, I privately ORD
cred the purchase Of "a snail estate
there as possible home. If the peo-
pie of China insist on my acceptance
of the sceptre, I shall leave this coun-
try and spend my remaining days

markable statement of policy made III

Poland war fields, apparently are in
full swing again along the front to the
west and northwest of Warsaw. The
latest official statement from Petro-
grad indicates this in recording at
tacks on the Russian positions at sew
eral points
Heavy losses were inflicted upon the
Germans in an assault near Jednoro-
jetz in the PrZaSnysz district, the Rus
slams report, but near Bolimo, almost
directly west of Warsaw, an attack in
which gases were employed, resulted
in the storning of first line trenches
In some of these the Germans retained
a footbold. The fighting there was
reported as continuing.
Russ Follow Up Blow.
Petrograd declares that the blow
dealt the Austrians south of Lublin is
being followed up, the Teutonic forces
there being in retreat with the Rus
slams in pursuit.
A Petrograd correspondent de-
scribes the check to the AustrianS as
resulting from a blunder by Archduke
Joseph Ferdinand, who in too swift
advance left his army's left wing I'M
covered, enabling the Russians to de-
liver an attack which cost the Aus
TRANS $4,000 men.
a brief statement from Rome says
there are no important changes along
the Austro-Italian battle line, but that
the action on the various fronts is de
Veloping regularly"

CALLS FOR 100000.
Jesse Shaw Wants Fire Protection
for Water Plant.

Jesse Shaw, superintendent of the
city water department, will recon-
mend to Frank NJ. Newland, city COM
missioner that the city water plant be
equipped with a sprinkling system for
protection against fire. He made this
statement today at the meeting of the
municipal legislation committee of the
Commercial club under Irwin Snat-
finger. The meeting of the commit
tee was called for the purpose of dis
cussing the necessity for the prOtec-
ton of the plant against fire.
superintendent Shaw stated that he
had considered for some time the ad-
visibility of installing a system for
fire protection. The value of the
building and equipment is estimate d
at 100000 or more. J. B. Billiard.
former mayor, favored the renodeling
of the old portion of the building to
make it fire proof.
uperintendent Shaw will have csti-

JUSTICE is SEVERE.
Gives a Woman $500 Fine and SIX
Months in Jail.

A sentence to pay fine of $500
and to spend six months in Jail is
about as severe as is ever dealt by a
justice of the peace. But such is the
sentence imposed by Jackson county
justice of the peace upon Dollie Hard
ing, who gives her occupation as camp
cook and who is only % years old,
five feet and seven inches standing
and almost as tall reclining, for she
weighs 1876 pounds.
Because there is no place in Jack
son county for the imprisonment of
women, DOllie was brought to Topeka
last night and arrangements were
made for her to serve her sentence
in the Shawnee county Jail. The man
in the case was given like sentence
by the rural J. P. and is serving it
out in the Jackson county Jail. The
woman was a cook in railroad camp.

At the Hip.
The cast in THE Deep Purple" this
week at the Hip theater played with
a real appreciation for the POSSIBLE
ties both in the situations and dia-

it on in such a manner as to attract
special attention.
The stage settings all week have
evoked much favorable comment from
the audience. There is a touch of To-
cal interest in the scenic effects, as
Hugo Miller was the artist who de-
signed and painted it.
The bill for next week is not similar

REGISTER A
PROTEST ON
POOL HALLS

That a fight against the granting OF
licenses to pool halls in Tuttle is to
be waged before the county Judge, was
evidenced this morning when delega
tion from that city arrived and de-
clared their intentions to be present
when the hearing before Judge r.. e.
Davenport went to bat.
Two applicants from Tuttle have
filed with the county Judge, and with
out giving out definite information, it
was stated from the court that a fight
on at least one OF the applicants was
to be made. The information was
based on the fact that delegations of
church people from Tuttle had visited
the office of Judge Davenport and had
expressed their intentions to fight the
case.
1t was not known until today, how
ever, that a fight would be made
against both the Tutte applicants. The
endeavor will be made to, it seems,
knock pool halls out of rut.le entirely.
