CHINESE BOY RULER
 SEEKS OWN SAFETY
Retires to Imperial City to Open Negotiations-Banishment is Talked-All MOnarchists May Be Put Under Surveillance.

Washington, July .10.-Gen. Chang Hsun. leader of the attempt to re- store the Manchu dynasty in China, was reported by Minister Reinsch to- dav to have withdrawn his troops into the imperial city and the Temple of Heaven. the two most historic and beautiful sections of Peking
 Loyal troops of the republic sur round the city and complete destruc- lion of the monarchial movement is considered only a matter of short time. Communication with Tien-Tsin was restored July 8.
 Chang Hsun's choice of the imper- ial city and the Temple of Heaven as his place of refuge after his desper- ate project has been swamped by a wave of universal republican opposi- tion confirms the belief here that he intends to hold China's priceless edi- fees as a pawn for his own personal safety.
 The Temple of Heaven was the scene of the most sacred worshipping under the old imperial regime, while the imperial city is filled with ire placeable relics of old China.
 Another dispatch to the department said the republican government at Ranking had, in accordance with the constitution, announced the confirma- tion of Gen. Fenk Kwo Chang as president and Yuan Gnu Jui as pre- mier.
 According to this information, de- cision has been reached to banish the emperor, the imperial family and the monarchist princes from Peking, un- der surveillance.
 It also is stated that Chang Hsun, in Peking, is negotiating for guaran- tees for personal safety.

PEACE IMPOSSIBLE
 UNLESS INDEMNITY
Annexation Also German Aim, Says Chancellor - Refuses Peace Terms-Tells Reichstag Committee War to End"

Zurich, July 10-Dr. von Bethmann- Hollweg, German imperial chancellor, regards the formula of peace without annexations or indemnities as ''im- possible and dangerous" He stands pat upon his refusal to state Ger many's peace terms. He backs it with the assertion;
 Germany must fight to the last gasp"
 Brief Berlin official statements and dispatches quoting leading German newspapers furnished the first insight today into the political turmoil rag ing in the empire. They contained brief but significant resumes of the preliminary battles fought in the meetings of the Reichstag's main committee Saturday and yesterday. They showed that these battles were indecisive. Nothing resembling even a provisional agreement was reached. When the Reichstag met in full ses- sion today the big parties seemed hopelessly divided and unequivocally opposed to compromise.
 Aside from fragmentary quotations the chancellor's speech before the main committee, which is being sup pressed by the German censor, the most important bit of today's news

AUDITOR OLIVER FIGURING
 SETTLEMENTS OF SHERIFFS

Little Rock, July 11.-Having serv- ed for three terms as sheriff of Ash ley county, Auditor Hogan Oliver be- came an expert in the preparation of statements by which a settlement was made with the state treasurer. These statements must be handled by the state auditor, and Auditor Oliver has taken upon himself the task of fgur- ing them out to see if they are cor rect. He has failed to find one yet, out of the twenty odd that have been filed, that is exactly correct. In most cases the amount of variance is very small, and the state has gained but a few dollars on his many hours of fig uring.

VOTE ON FOOD BILL
 SET; CLOTURE OFF
Protest Over Prohibition and Other Provisions Cause - Speeches Will Be Shortened as Debate Nears Close.

Washington, July 1O.-An agree ment was reached today to dispose of the food control bill by July 21. Sem ator Chamberlain withdrew the big stick of cloture which he held over the head of the Senate. And at last the end of the long debate is at least in sight.
 Following the criticisms of yester- day that his amendment was unconsti- tutional, Senator Shoot of Utah pre- pared to draft another which would leave to the courts the task of fixing the price of commandeered liquors, Senator Gore of Oklahoma offered such an amendment included in a sub stitute for the entire food bill. Many" senators, however, held that any at tempt to meddle again with prohibit tion legislation would be a violation of the unanimous agreement reached last Saturday. Senator Norris of Ne braska sent in a misunderstanding amendment, which would actually make prohibition permanent. With 10 days of debate still open, there seems little doubt that the provisions fixing prices of wheat, cotton, metals, etc., will be eliminated. There is great objection to these. It appears likely that the only control exercised will be over foods and fuel.
 The agreement came as a surprise. Senator Simmons of North Carolina, chairman of the Senate finance com mittee, had been speaking He said that, much as he deplored it, he would not be able to vote for the cloture and thus aid in forcing the bill through in it's present shape.
 1 Senator Chamberlain suggested he would withdraw his petition for the ''gag" if consent was gained to vote July 21. Senators Simmons, Lodge, Penrose, Wadsworth, Norris and Reed all of whom oppose the bill in it's present form, agreed that this was satisfactory. After various sugges- tions, all of which Senator Chamber lain accepted, the agreement was taken.

WOULD CONNECT CHICAGO WITH
NEW YORK
The Type Used In One Year to Publish
Endorsements Of DOan's Kidney
Pills.

OF the many kidney remedies on the
market today, none other is recon-
mended like Doan's Kidney Pills. For
ty thousand benefited people gladly
testify in the newspapers Of their own
towns. Forty-five hundred American
newspapers publish this home proof
of Doan's merit. The type used In
one year to tell this wonderful story
would make a solid column Of metal
twice as high as the worlds highest
mountain. Placed end to end the lines
OF type would reach from New York
to Chicago. These miles Of good
words told by 10000 tongues sound
glad tidings to any Maysville sufferer
who wants relief from kidney and
bladder ills. Here's a Maysville case,
Don't experiment. Use the remedy
endorsed by people you know.
John J. Bramel, bookkeeper, Wal
nut street. Maysville, says: "Doan's
Kidney Pills have been of great bene-
fit to me and in fact, I attribute four
teen years Of my life to them. 1t was
in 1902 that was suffering great
deal. After long use of Doan's Kidney
Pills, became well and had no bad
effects for many years. Recently.
however, / noticed my kidneys were
not acting right and my system was
generally weak. knew II was re-
turn Of the trouble and didn't lose
any time in getting a box of Doan's
Kidney Pills at Chanslor's Drug Store.
They again gave me the same good re-
suits and consider them wonderful
medicine"
Mr.. Bramel is only one of many
Maysville people who have gratefully
endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills. If your
back aches-if your kidneys bother
you, don't simply ask for a kidney
remedy-ask distinctly for DOAN'S
KIDNEY PILLS, the same that Mr..
Bramel had-the remedy backed by

ADA MEADE, KENTUCKY'S MOST
GIFTED DAUGHTER

Kentucky Night will be observed
at the Lyric Theater, Cincinnati, on
Tuesday, January g. when large
party of friends OF Miss Ada Meade,
leading lady Of the sparkling musical
comedy, "Katinka,' will journey from
Lexington to witness the performance
and to do honor to their charming fell
low t0wnswoman.
Miss Meade is a member of the ia
nous Meade family, for generations of
the arlstocracy Of the Blue Grass Sec
ton, and her success on the stage Is a
source OF much ratification to her
friends and distinct triumph for
Kentucky talent.
"Katinka," the play in which Miss
Meade Is appearing this season, Is one
OF the most tuneful of the five Ham,
merstein musical plays ever given to
the theater-loving people. In pre-
senting this beautiful Hauerbach,
Friml comedy, Arthur Hammerstein,
well known producer, has taken pains
to make 1t one of the most excellent
offerings ever sent on the road. A
superb cast, finely balanced pleas
ing-to-look-on chorus and enlarged
orchestra of superb symphonic soloist
and stage settings and environments
teeming with Oriental splendor are the
four big assets claimed by Mr.. Ham
merstein for his production.
"Katinka" Is generally recognized as
the greatest musical triumph of Ru-
dolph Friml since that young wizard
of melodies in conjunction with Otto
Hauerbach, set the pulse of theater-
goers tinkling with their dazzling
"Firefy" and the ever sparkling and
splendidly bewitching Right links"
T. Roy Barnes heads the cast with
Audrey Maple as prima donna, and
Ada Meade chief associate fun purvey-
or; other in the company are David
Reese; A. Robin; Rene Hoel; Walter
Manthay and Russian danseuse, May
Jenesse, besides a chorus of fifty
voices Of the first distinction.
