 PEKING. Sept. 22.-Owing. 1t is said. to the immense amount of oppo sition developing against the plan of President Yuan to change the existing form of government. the Counsel of State today advised the executive to call citizens convention to act on the new constitution which will determine if China is to be a republic or a mon archy. It is urged upon the president that such action will relieve him of the charge of seeking to perpetuate his own power and will also dissipate the oppo- sition offered on the ground that the contemplated action would not repre- sent the wishes of the people. It is generally accepted that the calling of a representative convention with power to decide upon the form of gov ernment will be the only possibility of avoiding certain trouble.

This type of foot gear was utterly unknown to the French officials but the fact that he was at all times dry shod and com fortable in his homely foot wear led to their adoption for the use of the entire army. Haas states that in the /. section of the front where he has been the French arms have been triumphant at all times and
 Germans have been kept pretty well on the run. The country is rough land progress Is slow and advance of a few miles is really an achievement of note Throughout the entire period of
 service Haas has found his Alaska experiences invaluable as the life oi the army and the camp is similar tc that of the frontier and the conditions of living are decidedly rough.

JUDGE SENTENCES SON

 OLYMPIA, Seut. 23.-How would you like to be a judge and be forced
 under stress of the law that you had sworn to uphold, to send your own son to jail for the ignoble crime of chicken stealing? This is exactly what happen ed to Magistrate Giles of this city to- day.
 Five boys including Grover Giles the judges son, were brought into cour this morning charged with chicken stealing. During the course of the
 hearing 1t developed that the hens feloniously purloined by the youngsters were obtained from the hen roosts of his honor himself. After making away with the chickens the boys retired to the suburbs, where, according to the testimony they proceeded to feast on chicken stew until they could eat no more.
 Possibly 1t was because the hens were his own and possibly because the judge is firm believer in upholdlng justice regardless of who is hurt but at the conclusion of the hearing he sentenced the whole crowd to a term of ten days in the city lookup. And he didn't even |smile. SETHHHV
