PAID FOR MISSIONARY Qen Ma Pu-yun Dismissed and {{ E3roney Beturnea to Methodists. Treaty Rights Respected. 1% By the Ascociated Press. CHICAGO, March 24.—The $8,000 ran- i+ Wom recently paid by the Methodist Mis- rence at Foochow, China, to Pu-yun of the Peking gov- H trict superintendent of the orga on, has been returned, ac- cording to a cablegram just received Bishop F. T. Keeney of China, it learned here today through the ee on conservation and ad- vance. “The arrest and incarceration of Rev. Sik I Siong of Yungchun, Fukien { province, about 100 miles south of i’ Foochow, was caused by Gen. Ma Au-vun, who was avowedly anti- /’Christian. The general tried to take away the lands held by the mission and demanded $13.000 for the person of Rev. Mr. Sik. His military doctor, Liu, obtained evidence against Rev. ‘Mr. Sik by fraud, and threatened to eause Chinese soldiers to assault for- cigners. The sum of $§8,000 was ac- repted by the general and Rev. Mr. Sik released. Through the American consul at ¥oochow and the expected visit of a {destroyer flotiila to that port, the Methodists_finally succeeded in’ get- ting Gen. Ma dismissed and the ran- som returned. The mission, which operates under specific ireaty rights, was able to prove conspiracy to black- mail and extortion, formed before the nortrern troops marched into the province. ? ———— Pawnbrokers came by their familiar _.name ‘“uncle” in rather a curious fashion, for it originated in a pun on uncus,” the name for the hook with /which, in olden times, they used to handle the goods submitted for valu- + ation.

ENGAGEMENT SURPRISES. Crown Prince Frederick of Den- mark Takes Sudden Step. COPENHAGEN, March 24.—The en- gagement of Crown Prince Frederick of Denmark to Princess Olga, eldest daughter of Prince Nicholas of Greece, announced on March §, came as a sur- prise here, even to King Christian and can be judged from the fact that a supposed picture of the prospective bride printed in the Danish newspapers, and authorized by the court chamber- lain, turned out to be not that of | Princess Olga, but of another Greek | princess. It seems to have been a case of love at first sight, for the corre- spondent has been given lo under- stand that the the crown prince pro- | met Princess Olga at Cannes. ! the princess eighteen.

The radio ‘sets, manufactured in the United States, have special features to prevent as much as possible inter- ference from atmospheric electricity and other stations. The normal range of the transmitters under fairly se- vere conditions is approximately 100 miles, with a greater range under favorable conditions.. During the in- stallation period music was broad- cast 1,000 miles. PASTOR IS FLOORWALKER. Methodist Minister Unable to Live on His Pulpit Salary., UNION HILL, N.
