UUAN SHI IS LOSING POWER The Newly Appcinted Premier Be lieved to Have Deserted People Whom He was to Serve. Shanghai.—The situation in south ern China is. becoming more involved each day. The republicans apparent ly are determined to secure their in dependence from the Manchu dynas ty, but there are grave doubts of their ability to establish a stable govern ment in time to avoid the conse quences of continued disorg. ization and the absence of revenue and a competent administration. The local organizations get rally are preserving order. Shanghai is the center of business for the entire Yang Tse valley, which is stagnant while the military operations around Wu Chang and Nanking are proceed ing. The situation at Peking has lit tle influence on the rest of the country. The power of Yuan Shi Kai's name is waning, because it is believed he has deserted the cause of the people. The provinces which have declared independence are organizing separate governments, but each refuses recog nition of the responsibilities incurred by the central government. Nanking, the ancient capital, is still firmly in the possession of the imperialists, therefore the assertion of southern supremacy is not taken seriously. Even the reformers reconigze the im portance of Nanking, and both they and the imperialists are directing all their efforts to this important center, where the result of a battle may mean either the end of the Manchu dynasty or a serious setback to the revolu tionary cause. The reformers do not conceal the tremendous strain upon their financial resources in conducting the campaign against Nanking and maintaining their position at Wu Chang. The fall of Nanking will ‘ possibly mark the real commencement of the final act of the drama, but even then entire unity may he impassible. Thic out come of the attack which the reform ers are preparing to make on Nan king is problematical, but if the im perialists elect to remain behind the walls, it probably will become a question of siege and starvation. Neither side has an o\/rral>undance of food supplies. TWO BIG BATTLESHIPS. Plans for Which Will Be Laid "Before Congress. Washington.—Rough plans for two huge battleships wilt be laid before congress when it convenes.

AN OLD FRENCH “CASTLE” Fort Niagara at the Mouth of the Niagara River Has Interesting History. Buffalo, X. Y.—No place in America possesses more interesting history than old Fort Niagara at the mouth of the Niagara river. The story of the possersion by the Indians, then the j French, British and Americans each J in succession, and then by the British i again and finally by the Americans, j is intensely interesting. Many of the ! old builu.ngs are still in an excellent ' state of preservation and are in con stant use by the present occupants of Fort Niagara. The building shown in the illustration is the old French “tness" house or "castle," as it is now called. It was begun by the French in 1725 and finished in 1726. It is said to be the oldest existing masonry work west of Albany. Its dimensions as planned by the French were 105x17 feet. The brick used in laying the At Fcrt Niagara. j main floors was brought from France j and much of the stone for the walls ! from Frontenac. It Is the tradition that the • castle.” whtch is a very strong building, was erected by stratagem. A considerable, though not powerful, body of French troops had arrived at the point. Their force was inferior to the surrounding | Indians. The French obtained con j sent of the Indians to build a wigwam j aEd induced them with some of then own officers to engage in an extensive j hunt. The materials had been madt ready and while the Indians were ab sent the French built the "castle.' W hen the hunting party returned a night the French had advanced st far with the work as to cover theii •aces and to defend themselves against the savages in case of any attack. GRAPPLING A SAFETY PIN How a Physician Removes One From the Throat cf a Patient. 1 ____ j Chicago.—The modern physician is not obliged to guess at what is the matter with a Man's stomach or his bronchia! tubfs; if the proper Instru ments are at his disposal he can see ! for himself what the trouble is quite i as well as iT it were on the outer ; surface of the body.
