MULE STANDS ASIDE
WHEN THE PASSWORD
IS GIVEN BY M'AD00

Yosemite, Calf, Aug. G.
The mule wherewith cartoon
lists for years had represented
the democratic party is not
the only one that is amenable
sometimes to whispers from
William G. McAdoo, sometime
secretary of the treasury under
President Wilson. Yesterday
Mr.. McAdoO, his wife and
daughter were ascending the
narrow Tenaya Lake trail on
horseback. They met a pack
train, headed by a giant speci-
men of the type that has made
Missouri famous and with an
apparently unalterable deter
mination not to yield even half
of the road to anybody.
The guides pleaded in terms
appropriate to the ears of the
ladies in the McAdoo party
then descended by easy stages
into mule talk" calculated to
move mountains. But not this
particular mule.
Mr.. McAdoo descended from
his saddle. He approached the
mule. What mystic democratic
password he used the guides
didn't hear and he didn't tell
But the mule stood aside and
the party rode on past the
pack train and up to the lake,
whence they departed from
Yosemite by automobile.

Within Last Two Months

Peking, Aug. 6 (by the Associat-

also known as Kiangchow, in XII
angst province, has been sacked by
mutinous troops according to ad-
vices received here today. Two
hundred shops We're looted and de-
stroyed. The damage is placed at
$S,000,000.
The outbreak at Kiukiang is the
second of its kind to occur in l<i-
angst province within two months.
Troops of both the Peking and
Canton governments have been
concentrated there and the terri
tory has been terrorized by thou
sands of soldiers who have mutt

During the latter half Of June
between 10000 and $1,000 north
ern troops who had been sent into
Kiangsi to, oppose the advance of
Sun Yat Sens forces from The
south, broke into open revolt after
suffering defeat at the hands Of
the Cantonese, massacred thou
sands of natives and looted and
burned 20 cities and towns in the
central portion of the province.
At that time the disorders did
not spread as far north Kiukiane,
which is at the extreme upper end
of the province on the Yangtsee
river, about $50 miles above

During the June mutiny and
massacre fears were felt for the
lives of hundreds of foreigners, in

area, and both American and Brit
ish gunboats patrolling the Yang

foreign lives, however, were re-
ported lost.

Lincoln, Neb., Aug. G.-After
political inactivity of more than
20 years, a man who once gained
for himself a national reputation
as "The Boy Orator of 1885, to-

of his life's ambition and may OBJ

Old-time patriots Of the re-

Thorpe, the boy Orator of 1896. y
His history is perhaps without

While a boy, Thorpe, made a
study Of the tariff and money

in school and public forum on
the issues arising therefrom. In
the years following the panic OF
1898, young Thorpe, then about
81 years or age. found himself
one of the 100000 men out Of
employment. and went out to the
Kansas wheat fields in search of
work. His gold standard policies
in a state where populism and
free silver issues were rampant
soon lost him job after job. He
became tramp, at all times
ready to voice his protest against
existing economic conditions. The
The soap box dias found his a
steady tenent and his oratory
soon won him a name in the
west.
Gold standard republicans pro-
claimed him the champion of
their cause. Young Thorpe was
received with acclaim in every
city he made his appearance. The
newspaper file of leading Ne
braska newspapers of that day
are filled with editorial comment
concerning the prowess of Thorpe
and the manner in which he rout-
ed his opponents. He made 157
addresses In Nebraska in 1896.
Later he moved on to Ohio, In
diana. Illinois. Kentucky and Mis-

travelled. For a while the lecture
platform claimed his services, but
his health failed him Is years
ago, he gave up lecturing and
since has been out of public life.

were of revolutionary stock. His
great. great grandfather crossed

rather, Daniel Thorpe, came to

London. Aug. 6 (by the Asso-
ciated Press Allied statesmen
are gathering in London tonight
for the opening tomorrow of what
seems universally regarded as the
most mOmentous conference since
peace was concluded.
The immediate concern OF the
conference is the question of repa-
rations and Germany's request for
a moratorium but since the deliv-
cry last week of the note of the
Earl of Balfour. 1t is assumed that
the question of inter-allied indebt-

discussion. especially at Raymond
Poincare, the French prime min
lister, Is credited with bringing to
London a plan for the extinction OF
the German reparations bonds In
exchange for cancellation of the
French debt to Great Britain.
This plan meets with little SYM
pathy in England, because, it is
contended, these German bonds,
being admittedly worthless. Great
Britain would gain nothing but by
forgiving the French debt would
lose the last weapon she possesses
for bringing pressure TO bear upon
France on the question Of arma-
ments or on any policy in which
France might run counter to Brit
ish ideas. The situation Is further
complicated by the ultimatum
France delivered to Germany con-
cerning Germany's payments on
account of clearing house debts
and the measures which France
already has ordered taken In this
connection.
Little hope seems to be enter
tanned here that the conference
will be a successful one. although
it Is fully recognized that that In
view of the swift fall in the value
of the mark which threatens to
bring Germany in the wake of Aus
tria and Russia financially. q stu
