PRINGE CHING COMES OUT OF RETIREMENT For Many Years Important Figure in Chinese Politics - ten (Correspondence of the Asso. Press.) Peking, Nov. 2.—Prince Ching, who has suddenly come out of long re- tirement to participate in the nego- tiations concerning the rights the deposed Manchu dynasty is to enjoy the prospective reestablish- ment of the monarchy, was for many ; years one of the most important | figures in Chinese politics. He has been living quietly at Tien- tsin and was summoned to Peking to | look after the interests of che de-| posed boy-emperor who is living as a prisoner in the Forbidden City at Peking. Prince Ching was born in '1839, and when thirteen years of age was adopted by a grandson of Em- | peror Chien Lung, and was continual- | » ped onion, a tiny bit of mace, sprig of parsley and a scant teaspoonful of salt, and boil slowly until the rice is pulpy. Rub through a sieve and re- heat to the bolling point.. Add ono tablespoonful of flour blended with a little cold milk; stir until thickened. Add pepper to taste, more salt, if needed, and simmer for five minutes. Beat two eggs, add one-half of a cup- ful of good cream. Draw the kettle to the side of the fire and pour this in slowly, stirring well; sprinkle in two tablespoonfuls of grated Swiss cheese and take immediately from the fire. As served, drop a pinch of chopped parsley over each plateful. ly advanced until 1908 when, upon the death of Emperor Kuang Hsu, he was admitted to the rank of a hereditary prince of the first order. Many of his sons and daughters have married into the Chinese royal family. Exoeedingly Wealthy. In Manchu circles, therefore, Prince Ching is a person of very great con- sequence on the ground of family ties alone. In addition he is exceed- ingly wealthy'and for many years was the most powerful minister in Peking. In April 1884, he became president of the Tsungli Yamen, the old Board of Foreign Affairs, and in that capacity his name is ‘associated with many of the outstanding events of China's recent history. There was, in fact, a period of many years when practically nothing cou'd be done without Prince Ching’s cogni- zance and help, when his front door was a market place at which appoint- ments, promotions and concessions were bought and sold, when his favor was the passport that opened the most intimate and iclosely gunarded portals, when his frown meant ruin to the most elaborate schemes. And now, after a period of retirement anad comparative unimportance, he re- emerges again to “put through” what may well prove to be the last big deal, of his life. Manchus Agreement. The terms on which the Manchus abdicated, the “favorable treatment” agreement that Prince Ching jis going to revise, included a stipulation that after abdication the Emperor should be allowed to retain his title and should receive from the republic the respect due to a foreign sovereign. Article two arranged that the thromne should receive from the republic sn annuity of Taels 4,000,000 ($5,600,000 Mexican) until the establishment of a new currency, when the sum should be $4,000,000 (Mexican.) By article three the Emperor was to be nllowed to reside temporarily in the imperial palace, but was later to remove to the Eho Park, retaining his body- guard at the same strength as aither- to. Other articles allowed nim to continue to perform the reigious ri- tual connected with the imperial an- CHAS. DILLON & CO. HARTFORD, CONN.

To Prince Ching, however, the duty of negotiating for its revision will be | a task rich in opportunities, especial- | ly as the imperial seal appears to be | a sine qua non of a revival of mon- archy.

The skirt fis made of black chiffon velvet which continues in a scquare up to the neck line in back and forms a high girdle in front, below which it is cut out to let in an apron effect of the red chiffon. Where the velvet joins the chiffon on the skirt, there is a little frilled heading.

Since the middle of September of this year a rapid decrease was noted, and since the first week in October the number of cases occurring weekly has not exceeded 200, Outside of Galicia there has been nothing resembling an epidemic. In the period from August 29 to October 2 there were, according to the official statement, only 140 cases in all Austria, with the exception of Galicia, | Bowkowina and the coast districts. In the last named two places there were 193 cases in the period stated.
