The boys are students at Cheltenham College.

HONEST REGIME IS FORESEEN Uncensored Dispatch Says Yuan Shih-K'ai Seems About to Fall From Power. Speof* Cable to The American. LONDON, Nov. 29.—Li Yuan Hung, Vice President of the Chines© re public, is the only statesman able to cope with the crisis in politics which seems about to overthrow ^ uan Shih K’ai’s regime and restore frr. Sun Yat Sen to power. This 1s what uncensored dispatches via Mukden, in Japanese territory, de clare. The Vice President protests vio lently against Yuan’s plan to dis solve Parliament. Li Yuan and Sun Yat Sen sup ported the President so long as he de sired to maintain a democratic gov ernment, and Li Yuan Hung’s ap peal against dissolution is considered a last effort to maintain a semblance of a democratic government. The next step most probably will be the resignation of Li Yuan Hung. Li Yuan Hung is the only man capable of handling the situation hav ing the respect and confidence of the Chinese. He is a native of the heart of China and a lieutenant of Sun Yat Sen. This would mean the return of Sun Yat Sen and the setting up at Peking of an honest and patriotic adminis tration.

LONDON, Nov. 29.—A new bullet proof glass has been invented which will defy all the efforts of the militants to break a single pane.

GREEK STATUE Masterpieces Recovered From An cient Ship Sunk Centuries Ago Off the African Coast. Special Cable to The American. PARIS, Nov. 29.—One of the most Important discoveries in art during the last century was made known to the Academy of Inscriptions recently by M. Merline, in charge of the ex cavation of an ancient Greek statue of Eros, probably executed by Praxi teles. The discovery of the sunken ship was made known in 1907, when a na tive came back from the seaboard one day, announcing that he had looked down in the water and had seen a buried city. The queer shape lay some 43 yards beneath the surface of the sea. Great piles were driven on all sides of the sunken wreck, and excavation beneath the sea commenced. The sediment of years and the ceasless washing of the tides had covered the treasure with a heavy deposit. As work continued it was discovered that the buried wreck was not a city but a Greek ship. As near as scien tists can calculate, it was probably sunk in the year 86 B. C. Carried Art Treasures. The boat carried a heavy load of art treasures taken from Athens at the time that city was sacked, and on their way to adorn the parks and palaces of Rome. The ship was probably driven far out of its way by a gale and finally waterlogged off the coast of Tunis. Many of marble pieces had been destroyed by the ravages of wave and time. The bronze figures were pre served for a happier fate. The brine of the sea seemed to have formed a sort of coat about them, and though some of them were battered and broken, several valuable pieces were taken out of the depths. The most important of these, of course, is the Eros, which had been Imputed to Praxiteles, creator of the famed Aphrodite of Cnidus, called by many the finest in the world, of I the Eros of Thespiae, of numerous statues of satyrs, one of which has been immortalized by Hawthorne in the "Marble Faun" and of the Hermes of Olmphia. The piece is 52 inches high, and w r hen it was found in the silt at the bottom of the sea the wings had been dislodged and the left arm has been torn away. It was covered with a heavy saline deposit. The figure in its original probably carried a bow. Appears Work of Master. That Praxiteles fashioned such a figure, scientists have on the author ity of the Rhetorican Callistrate, whose description of the original work corresponds in every detail to the Eros just unearthed. The hand of a master Is noticeable In every line of the statue, and there is lit tle reason to believe that it Is other than the work of the great sculptor , who flourished in the second golden . age of the Greeks. M. Merline reports that the stat- J uettes taken from beneath the an cient ship’s hulk are more numerous than the full-sized figures. The satyr In bronze, thirteen inches high, was found in almost perfect con- : dition. The metal had corroded in ; some places, but not so much as to I disfigure it greatly. The face was almost perfect. • A remarkable head of Hermes was also discovered, upon which the ar tist Dionysius had generally left his name. ‘ The bronze head of a horse was among the other treasures, and | two grotesque figures, one of a dan- ! cer. were also found. The most perfect piece of marble unearthed was a bust of Aphrodite, j The base of one of the arms was ; gone, but the face was happily dis tinct.

LONDON, Nov. 2S.—in consequence of a shortage of servants, the visit of the Grand Duke Boris and the Grand Duchess Vladimir was postponed sev eral days until the Archduke Ferdi nand had left.
