CHINESE REVOLT
WILL BE CRUSHED
President Yuan Shi Kai Mini.
mizes It's Importance; to
Preserve Neutrality

Peking, China. Feb. 19.-In an eN-
elusive interview with the correspond
ent or the Associated Press at the Pals
ace to-day. President Yuan Shi Kai min
inized the Importance of the rebellion
now in progress and expressed conf
dence of the ability of the government
to suppress the uprising when adequate
troops reach the upper Yangtse Kiang.
Nice-Admiral Tsai Ting Kan, CONT
dental secretary OF Yuan Shi Kai, act
Ell as interpreter.
This Is no campaign, but only a
skirmish," said Yuan Shi Eaf. "But
IT gives me so much work that IL In
cfeases my appetite"
The president replied laughingly to
a remark regarding his excellent ply
slcal condition and good spirits, re-
tuting rumors of his ill-health. Dis
cuSslng his enthronement, he said:
Although date in February was
sanctioned, the enthronement could not
beTiiopp SanG place be because OF the Yunnan re-
erations. Therefore il was decided.
with saddened hearts to postpone it,
Drafting Constitution
Ihe president said that drafting Of
new constitution would be begun in
lew, days When it is finished the
constitution will go before a national
convention for suggestions.
lie did not predict that date of pro-
mulgation OF the constitution. Dis
cussing It's nature. he said:
j., We sIull auOpt from all countries
the provisions best suited to China
WITHOUT leaning toward any foreign
constitution
Yuan shi Kai had this to say re-
gardng probable recognition of the
monarChy

or Will not delay. Each will recognize
the monarchy according to circum-
stances"
Regarding China's position as affect
China has made every effort 10
| maintain strictly neutrality. The
Chinese government is not aware that
the entente powers or the other belli-
Eerents have made any substantial
charges against us for not having done
so. China will endeavor to remain on
| friendly terms with all the treaty pow
ers."
VIII Crush Rebellion
Yuan Shi Kai then reverted to the
instruction.
"Yunnan and Kwei-Chow have few
troops and little ammunition" he said
How soon the rebellion will be crush
ed depends upon the roads and the
rapdity of communication. You must
remember that ii was easy for the
rebels to make a short dash in SEE
Chuen whereas the government troops
must make a difficult trip to reach the
rebels. Well supplied troops will
speedily suppress the rebels on reach
ing the scene.
"A few ambitious leaders without
popular support, are engineering the
rebellion. The voting showed that the

One night in the fall of the year,
when the leaves were falling in show
ers from the trees, the fairies wan
dered down by the river.
The queen had always told them to
keep away from the water, whether it
was a river, an ocean or lake, for the
water nymphs hold full sway there
and they should not intrude.
But the little fairies saw the big
leaves floating over the surface, and
they looked so attractive in the moon
light they could not resist the tempta-
tion to take sail.
II do not believe the nymphs could
catch u.s." said one, I'VE can sail so
fast and then they are asleep at this
hour" And soon they were gliding
along like so many flowers; their little
wings were like tiny sails and made
them go very fast.
But the water nymphs were soon
aware that someone was in their do
main, and the first thing the fairies
knew the smooth surface Of the water
became like little waves and the
leaves and their passengers tipped in
the most threatening manner.
"Oh, dear!" cried the fairies, Sup
pose we tip over" The water splashed

over them, and they folded their wings
in alarm, for they knew that If their
wings were wet it would spoil their
beauty.
do you think the nymphs are
awake?" asked one, and then the wa
ter grew more wavy than ever and the
nymphs came to the surface.
$50 you have been bold enough to
sail on our river" they said. 1--WE will
let you sail about for awhile and see
how you like it." And they splashed
water over the poor little fairies, who
begged them to stop.
"Why did you come here If you did
not like the water? You thought we
were asleep and you would steal a
sail,' said one nymph.
1--WE will give them sail in our
swift boats" said another, and up to
the surface came hundreds of shells
drawn by glistening fish.
The nymphs made the fairies get in
to the shells, and such wet looking
fairies as they were. Their wings hung
limp upon their backs and their pretty
dresses were spoiled, but they meekly
obeyed the nymphs for they were
afraid upon the water and did not dare
use their wands.
