 IN SHANTUNG


 New York, Sept. 5-Tai-Chi Que, Chinese technical delegate to the peace conference, replying to 6 s~lte- ment by Yosuke Matsuekar secretary of the Japanese peace delegation, re- garding the possibility of Japan's early withdrawal from the province of Shantung, said todayi
 German rights in Shantung origi- mated in an act of Prussian aggress- ion and piracy, Japan in driving Germany out of China prevented China from participating in the joint Angie-Japanese operations against the German forces in TsingTao.
 "China would prefer to have Ger many in Shantung instead of Japan, f that were the only alternative, be- .ause shantung is far removed from Germany, while in tho hands of the japanese there IS added danger to 7hiRa on account of Japan's already
 troagiy fortified possession in Korea

MANY PERMITS FOR BUILDINGS
 BEING SOUGHT

Within thep ast few months build ing activities have been booming NuemeroUs permits for the erection of two and four family houses, both of frame and brick con 1ruction, have been granted by the Building Com missi0ners recently.

Then came poor Purvis. They had

They lifted the runaways into their

"Don't be in a hurry, young Teller"
said one OF the Indians, and then there

Suddenly heard the hoof-beats OF

approaching me In the costume Of an
