VOLUME XIII., No. 266 KILLED MOTHER AND SELF BECAUSE HIS SISTER DIED NEW YORK. —Edward Soden, a well known cartoonist and illustra tor, broken hearted at the death of his sister, killed his mother and himself with chloroform. The bodies of the mother, Mary E. Soden, the daughter, Nila, and the son were found Satur day in their home, 258 Greene ave nue, Brooklyn, by the police of the Classon avenue police station. EHjl Soden, who was thirty-two yeary-ndd, died of hemorrhages Mrs. Soden was practically an invalid. The illness of the sister prevented her from working and Soden himself did not have regular employment. Their home was a poorly furnished four room apartment. The police broke into the place. The body of Ella lay on a couch in the front room. In the bedroom they found the body of Mrs. Soden and the body of the son was stretched on CKE DIPIOIT PBBTUTS KAISER: PEN PICTURE AND DESCRIP TION OF WAR LORD AP PEARS IN THE PEKIN GAZETTE VIS!! k SPECIAL MISSION Yn Shimei Went to Europe to Study the Different Forms of Govern ment BERLIN.—An interesting Chinese view ol the kajser has been published In the Pekin Gazette from the pen of Yu Shihmei, the Chinese states man who was sent to Europe on a sttecial mission to report on the dif ferent forms or constitutional govern ment. Yu Shihmei was received by the kaiser, and in describing the audi ence and the impressions the great German war lord made upon him he says: “The German emperor entered by the tipper left-hand door, and faced northeast, standing sideways. “We ail faced south, each standing in a row according to rank, and saluting in accordance with prece dent. The German emperor wore mil itary dress and his sword, took off his hat and bowed low. “I reverently handed in my creden tials, which the German emperor, raising his hand, took over in ]>er-! son, respectfully inquiring after the of the empress dowager and the emperor. I deferentially reas sured him as to their welfare, and then In accordancq with practice pro ceeded to read my formal address, w hich the interpreters at once render- j ed into German. The German em-, peror, in his reply, said (in general terms) that he would be very pleas- 1 cd to aid where he could in the oh- [ ject of ray -inquiries, but that con- j stitutional questions were always of ‘ a very complex nature. “The emperor is some fifty years ] of age and of middle height. He has a yellowish-red tinge, Rnd the ends of his moustache turn upwards. The expression of his face is remarknbly alert, and his gait is very active, j He can undergo a great deal of hard : work. “The whole dominion of Germany is 1 about the size of one large Chinese province—say, two small ones, some where about the extent of one of our viceroy's jurisdiction; yet it stands forth prominently as one of the great powers of the five conti nents, while the German emperor him | self is especially noted in western Europe for his masculine abilities and great politiqal capacity. "In his capacity for undergoing ■>oll he Is like a soldier, while In his’ demeanor to visitors he may be com pared to an ordinary gentleman; he hardly puts on as much pomp and ceremony as does one of our viceroys when moving about within his own Jurisdiction; but, on the other hand, It U impossible quite' to force com parisons in the case of customs so different as those of China and Eu rope" The “facing northeast” described at the reception, adds the translator, seems to be a delicate but furtive hint that (like all vassals) the Ger man emperor did distant homage to the emperor or China.

Kurt Kaensch of the Fourteenth Infantry was found lying dead in his bedroom at .oomberg, in Eastern Prus sia, beneath the body of a girl with whom he was known to have been on intimate terms. It was at first supposed to be. a case of double suicide, but subsequent infor mation shows that the affair was of a more remarkable nature. The girl, Martha Eichgrun, who was twenty-six years of age and the daughter of a gendarme, ha*., been the mistress ot the young officer for five years and was attached to him by a passion of the most ardent and jealous nature. Her parents after in vain having tried to make her give up the liaison had cast her off. A few months ago the lieutenant made the acquaintance of a girl of his own class who, he thought, would be a more suitable partner for life, and with the object of carrying out tills idea he pro i pared to cut himself adrift from Frau lein Eichgrun. Anxious both to spare the girl’s feelings and to provide for her future, he tried, under various pretexts, to induce her to take up some form of work, but she saw through his manoeu vers and openly declared that she would kill him ratner than he should belong 1 to another. j At last it was impossiole to conceal | the truth from her any longer, and as j soon as she learned it she proceeded in the most deliberate manner to put into execution those threats which her fickle lover ban never taken seriously. !
