Fiftieth Anniversary in Hostelry

A half of a centurys association with

nue. and Market street will be celebrated
today by its owner, Augustus n. Butter
worth. His guest of honor will be his
chef Michael McNamee. who has been
with the old hotel since 1870.
Mr.. Butterworth does not know how
old the Ridgway House is but owns a
bill for its remodelng back in 1870.
Within the period of his own association
with the hotel however, his memories
are very bright. In his early days the
house, owing to its central location. was
tho centre of the shipping trade, and the
captains of the clippers just in from the
high seas would flock into the hotel and
tell their tales of distant lands, while
the booms of their vessels made Della
ware avenue. then only 12 feet wide,
almost impossible. The stage coaches
used to make the old house their head
quarters after depositing their passengers
on the Camden and West Jersey ferries
to be picked up on the other side

PRESIDENT OF CHINA
Leader of Revolt in 1912 Re-
turns to Home Country in
Response to Call-Hon-
ored Here
AssAILs YUAN sH1-KAT

General Hwang Hsing, leader of the
Chinese revolution of 1912, who has been
living at Media for many months, has re-
turned to China in response to a call from
his countrymen There is a possibility OF
his election TO the presidency of that ma
tlon
A note received at the University OF
Pennsylvania from DR.. John j. Mullowney.
Assistant Commissioner of Health OF
Pennsylvania, and made public today at
that institution tells of the turn of politi-
cal affairs in China and of the departure
Of Hwang Hsing.
Doctor Mulowney is a graduate Of the
university and the distinguished Chinese
statesman is we'll known among members
Of the faculty there IL was for that
reason that the state official wrote to
the university Of the honors which the
General is expected to receive.
General Hsing spoke before the Chinese
Club at the university last winter. Dr.
S. X Tong. who Is scheduled to speak
before members of the faculty at the
Lenape Club, has been closely associated
with Hsing for many years.
The career of Hwang Hsing has been
one OF the most picturesque in the history
Of modern China. He came to America
several years ago with price of 100000
on his head because of his activities
against the Manchu domination. He was
accompanied by S. p. Hsu. his private
secretary and interpreter. He issued a
statement recently declaring that Yuan
Shi-kai encouraged Japan to make de-
mands for concessions in China. with the
understanding that his regime would be
supported as reward.
"China for the. present will be ruined
by Yuan giving into Japan" he said

"Time of Her Life"
Special Glasses at Meade
School Made Happy by
Circus Parade, Which
They View From Vehicle

The entire winter savings of a little
girl in North Philadelphia today made ~
little cripple school children the happiest
beings on earth. The children were pu-
pills of the two special classes in the Gem
eral George G. Meade School, sth and
oxford streets: their benefactress was
t2-year-old Helen S. Williams. daughter
OF Dr. and Mrs r F. williams. of 1903
Columbia avenue, and the savings that
brought so much joy amounted to ex-
actly $3.50.
Last Christmas little Helen was very
sad because she couldn't buy the crippled
children something to make them happy.
SO she decided to save all her pennies un-
I'll Easter and give each child fine big
egg with a name on II. She started, and
the saving was awful hard. Temptation
in the Kuise OF candy sticks, pretty
trankets and in innumerable other things
that capture the fancy of a 12-year-old
maiden arose in front OF her every day,
but she continued her saving.
When she was ready to buy the eggs
she had $3.50. At the store, however, she
found that to buy "a eggs II took s3.O5,
or Just 55 cents more than she had She
was worried, but former Sheriff Acker,
