This trait in the man's character asserted Itself during his boy hood days in San Francisco. Ha devel oped into a than of strong determina tion. After attending" night school in San Francisco for several months, being required during the days to work in his father's furniture store, Heney perse vered and. with the assistance of his In structors in the night school, entered the Vnlverslty of California in the class of :-T9.

Eighteen months later Handy obtained a divorce, the court awarding him the custody of the chll dren. But this did not end the case, for Heney appealed, disregarding the threat of Handy that he had better abandon the case Immediately or leave the terri tory. 11 Eli t In Street. A few days later Heney. accompanied by his clerk, was met in the street by Handy, who. purposely, brushed against the attorney, at the same time applying to him the same epithet he had been using since the trial began. Handy then struck Heney in the face and, grabbing . him by the throat. Jammed him into the side of a building. Heney reached for his gun. but did not draw It and. feeling Handy s grip on bis throat relax, freed himself from the grasp of his assailant and ran backward into the street, draw ing his revolver at the same time. Handy followed, at the same time reaching for his own gun. However, he did not pro duce the revolver, being determined to provoke Heney to Are the first shot. The . doctor grabbed Heney's revolver and in the scuffle that followed the gun was d.scharged. the bullet lodging In Handy's Intestines. Then followed a street fight In which Heney, while weiging only 126, s against his adversary's SOD. prevented Handy from getting possession of the gun. After about Ave minutes of Agist ing friends" separated the two combat ants. Handy was removed to his home, where he died the next day. Politics Goes Against Him.

It has been freely predicted that the demise of the Emperor would be followed by an attempt at a coup d'etat, but the Imperial edicts mentioned in the dis patch from Pekin appear to have fore stalled any immediate action of this kind. Kuang- Hsu was a son of the brother of the husband of the Dowager Empress. DOWAGER EMPRESS DYIXG, TOO Palace Officials Appoint Resents, bat Hide Emperor's Death. PEKIN'. Nov. 13. 10:30 P. M. It is re ported that the Empress DowaKer also Is dying. This rumor that the Empress Powafter Is dylnic. if true, would ex plain the two edicts Issued this after noon regarding; a regency for the empire. ' ... It is absolutely impossible to obtain any official confirmation of the re ported death of the Emperor and the condition of the IJowasrer Empress. There is a certain amount of specula tion in regard to what is actually transpiring. It Is believed that the government will utilize the dying condition of the juperuri II he is nut already dead,, to. screen the condition of the Dowager Empress. The edicts of today bear the name of Kuang Hsu. whlcn indicates that he was still alive at the hour the members of the Grand Council were in conference at the palace. This was at 2 o'clock this afternoon. The second edict orders that Pu Wei. son of Prince Chun, a child 6 years old, be trained in the palace for succession to the throne. This make him heir presumptive. The hour of the day at which these edicts were issued shows that the im perial family, as welll as the Grand Councillors, before deciding upon the appointment of Prince Chun to the re gency, awaited the return of Prince Chlng. president of the Board of For eign Affairs, from the Eastern Tombs, whither he went to inspect the mauso leum of the Dowager Empress. KtLER FOXD OF MECHANICS Chinese Emperor Had Big Collection of Clocks and Watches. WAStHIXGTOX, Nov. 13. According to members of the diplomatic corps in a po sition to know about the life of the Em oeror of China, his delicate health for. pada. fre. iiuluJgeaca la putdooi; fBMtsLateJy. He found his greatest recreation in the study of mechanical contrivances. His envoys and intimates were able to please him immensely by sending him models and notes of Inventions and none of his subjects studied more carefully than he the reports on inventions of mechanical devices, which he utilized for the im provement of conditions in the "Qnpire. Particularly attractive to the Emper or were clocks and watches. In the Win ter palace at Pekln and in the royal Summer residence, some miles distant, were hundreds of clocks from all parts of the world, nearly all of different makes and styles. Nothing is said to have pleased the Emperor more than to tear a clock to pieces and then reas semble its parts. He became quite ex pert in the adjustment of these time pieces. His collection of these contriv ances is said to have been one of the most complete in the Orient, not only representing modern work, but the de velopment of time recorders through the centuries. The Associated Press dispatches gave the first news of the death of the Em peror. When they were shown to Minister-Wu Ting Fang, the Minister com mented: "But reports of his death have been re ceived before." He added, however, that while he had not been notified, such no tification was not to be expected immedl- alter lua death, on account 01 uie commotion which would follow the death of. the Emperor,. Confirmation of the demise, he continued, would probably be made by the American Minister at Pekin. Through nearly all of the 34 years that the Emperor was on the throne he was in poor health, the Minister explained, and added that the Emperor's death at this time would not interfere with the policy of reform which had been adopted and partially put Into practice by the Chinese government. Mr. Wu explained that as the Emperor had no direct de scendants, the infant son of a brother of the Emperor would probably be called to the throne. A dispatch was received at the State Department Just before noon today from American Minister Kockhill at Pekln, reporting that the Emperor was dying. The message was sent about 2 o'clock this afternoon, Pekin time. Hitchcock Will Go Free. NEW YORK, Nov 13.
