Tang Shao Yl today received a tele-
gram from Pokin saying Tuan Fang, tor-
merly viceroy of the province of Chi U,
had arrived in the capital disguised as a
eoolle. It was reported December 18 he
had been killed by his own soldiers.
According to the telegram" received by
Tang. Tuan says he bribed his soldiers
to announce publicly they had murdered
liltn. Instead, they killed a pig and ex-
hibited their bloody swords to the popu-
lace, vowing the stains hau been made by
Tuan's blood. Meanwhile Tuan, clad In
rags, escaped.
Dr. Sun Yat Sen, who has been elected
first vice president of the Chinese repub-
lic, Is a native of Canton. He was one
of the promoters of a revolutionary plot
to seize Canton in I88f>. Plans of the con-
spirators were discovered. Several we re I
put to death but Dr Sim escaped to the I
British colony of Hong Kong where he j
became a British subject.
He next was heard of in England and
the United States, where ho delivered
lectures to convert Chinese students
to revolutionary principles, in England
In 1900 he was entice* into the Chlne.se
legation, where he was told he was on
Cuinese territory and would be deported
to Pekln. This, however, was prevented,
as he claimed British oltizenshlp and was
get free. He visited Japan and stirred
Chinese there to revolutionary Ideas He
resided in Singapore surrounded by a
bn2yguard of fellpw revolutionists.
He visited New York 1n April of this
jear and spoke there against the Manchu

I Think It Would Mean Double Assess

The proposal of Alderman Boynton, in-
Nthucting City Attorney Ryan to prepare
an ordinance by vhich the system of pro-
viding pavements for San Antonio won it.
be changed Is not to have ruch easy §le<l-
Ing In the City Council as might be sur-
mised. True, certain members in the reg-
ular faction in the council lndicaiel ; t
the meeting ThursdH.v to at they would
favor it, but they were tweaking without
authority.
As for Mayor Calloghan. ho refused to
d'scuss 'he question, but it was learned
from one of the Aldermen, declared to be
close to him, that the propositi does not
meet with the executive endorsement.
Under tho proposal submitted by AuW-
man Boynton tne City Attorney is In-
structed to prepare ari ordinance In con-
formity with tne statute passed by the
last regular session of th * legislature,
by which cities anil villages may enaet
a paving ordinance, assessing the cost
for such improvement against abutting
property owners.
"This is a very grave question." said
one of the Aldermen, a staunch Callaghan
man, "and while I can't rav how t will
vote until the matter is finally presented
to us, it seems to me that we should
hesitate a long time before In augoratimr
a change. The paving put In has 1 -n it
the cost of the city, and If we now change
th© system so that abutting property
owners must bear the cost they wo lid be
compelled to Wear their share of the im-
provements already made und bear the
total cost of improvements made lri the
future. This 1s all very well for those
who have their pavement# In, but works
a hardship on property owners not SO
fortunate.'
Alderman Boynton, when asked for his
view of this proposal, replied:
"Then, I take It, as we have been pro-
ceeding on the wrong system in the past,
we must continue to do so In the future.
T haven't anything to say until the or-
dinance, as called for in my resolution,
Is presented to the Council by City At-
torney Ryan. I hope It will be modeled
after the modem ordinances of other
Texas cities, but I do not seek to press
the matter and desire it to be the work of
the entire Council."
Alderman LJpscomb, who has evidenced
considerable interest in the paving prop-
osition, Is out of the city on a short hunt-
ing trip, and will not be back until after
January 1. It la not probable however,
that a regular meeting of the Council will
be held until January S, ss the next meet-
ing would fall on New Year's Day. and
the members do not favor assembling on
a holiday.
- Recommends Classification of All
Human Beings and Marriage Ac-
cordingly —Asserts Ge 11 ealogios
Could Be Better Traced.
WASHINGTON, D. C , Dec. ?9.—Classi-
fication of all the peoples of the world
In ft great International census, giving
each person a number in a tingle world
series, to the end that the human race
iray be improved by scientific marriage,
was the plan advocated tonight by As-
sistant Secretary of Agriculture William
Hays, in an addrewa before the American
Breeders Association, one of the organi-
sations making up the American Associa-
tion for the Advancement of Science.
As a means of improving the heredity
of the human family Mr. Hays proposed
a classification of all human beings both
a.* to mental aptitude and genetic effi-
ciency. Based on such knowledge a.s this
census would give, he said there would
be developed a "racial religion' requir-
ing the genetically efficient 10 produce
families largv than the average, and
thoss lens efficient to produce families
smaller than the average.
The world numbers, says Mr. Mays,
would serve to join genealogies Into a
numerical system so that all relation-
ships could be traced, Each person would
have a number or percentage that could
be averaged so as to give the genetic
01 f imily values of each person.
William Hard el' New York, In an ad-
dr< <>s before t*.-h American Association
for Labor legislation, said "unemploy-
ment is no longer a joke." "The funny
paper lokes about tramps are dying out,"
he said: "for every man who does want
work there are scores who cannot got
work There are lOo.QOO more jobs In the
industries of New York State In October
than there are in January In any year."

Warrington Towed Into Navy Yard at
Norfolk in a Damaged
Condition.
NORFOLK, Va., Dec. 29- Looking ss
though she had been under fire, the tor-
pedo boat destroyer Warrington, which
was rammed by a schooner twenty miles
below Cape Hatteras yesterday morning
reached the navy yard tonight In tow of
the tugs Mohawk and Wahneta. Twenty-
five feet of her stern was torn away and
her crew was exhausted.
Lieutenant Commander William Hunt,
commanding the Warrington, telling of
the collision, said:
"The collision occurred when most of
the nlen were asleep and they were thrown
out of their hammocks by the Impact. I
reached the deck in time to see tho out-
lines of a schooner pulling away from
us. She appeared to have all her s:ills
intact. Six men were sleeping in the
compartment afr, and they were thrown
out of their hammocks Into the water.
In the next compartment there were tweuty
men asleep, and they had to wade in the
water over their shoes to tvade the in-
rush! ny; seas.
"The bulkheads held perfectly and we
found we would remain afloat for some
time. When tho revenue cutter Onondaga
reached us the storm was raging still.
The transfer of tho crew from the War-
rlngtcn to the Onondaga was made in
lifeboats and was accomplished with some
danger."
A three mast*vl schooner lies sunk off
Hatteras, according to a report by wire- i
les'; tonight. Nothlug was said <">f the 1
crew. There is no cine to the Identity 1
