Heney Secured Education and
Took Up Law in Face of
Trying Obstacles.
KILLS DOCTOR IN SOUTH
ttreet Fight With Arizona Physician
Who Viciously Attacked Young
Attorney 'Results in For
mer's Death.
The quality of Heney's courage never
was questioned. 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. His father refused to allow the
boy to continue In college, but young
Heney secured a teacher's certificate and.
by teaching school in Northern Call for
iiia. raised the necessary funds with
which to meet his college expenses and
Teturncd to the University three years
later, only to be expelled for fighting
"luring his freshman year.
Career Begins in Arizona.
Heney began his career In Arizona by
teaching the school at Silver City,
rough mining town, where muscle was as
necessary as mental development. Be
fore the year was out Heney gave up
the school and became a miner, after
wards going into the cattle business,
eventually returning to Tucson in 1S8",
when he resumed his practice of law.
It was while living at Tucson that
Heney "got his man." Dr. J. C. Handy
m frontier doctor-politician, was the vic
tim. After Inflicting all sorts of cruelty
on his wife. Handy Anally abandoned
her and when she fulled to institute di
vorce proceedings, he brought the suit
himself. The husband was successful by
threats and intimidation in frightening
two .attorneys, who had been retained by
Mrs. Handy, to give up her case and
withdraw, it was then that Heney be
came the woman's attorney, being forced
daily to endure frequent Insults at the
hands of Handy. 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.
Heney afterwards engaged In politics
in Idaho and as county chairman suc
ceeded In routing the Democratic boss
and hli machine, accepting as his re
ward the office of Attorney-General.
Kventually. however. Heney lost out in
the political game. He worked to havs
the territory admitted as a state. In the
hope that he would be one of the first
two United States Senators from the new
state. But In this his plans were de
feated and he decided not only to give
up politics, but Idaho as well, and re
turned to San Francisco, where ha
opened a law office.
CHINESE EMPEROR IS DEAD

trrday that, his brain was affected. The
members of the Grand Council have been
In close attendance at the palace for 10

the public.
I'.MPEROR RILED BY DOWAGER
Empress Dominated Every Feature
of Chinese Government.
The death of the Emperor of Clitaa,
If It proves true, brings to an end the
refgn of a sovereign feeble In mind
nd body, who has been dominated all
his life by the all-powerful Influence
f the Dowager Empress. Kuang
Hsu's "reign" will be completely lost
In the rule of the Empress. -
The Emperor was born in 1S70. His
uccession to the throne was one of
'he many arbitrary and illegal acts
:f the Dowager Empress, who adopted
him In succession from a generation
the same as that of his predecessor,
ilthcugh the custom of the Manchu
dynasty provides that succession shall
Eo to the next following generation.
Kuang Hsu was four years old when
made Kmperor and his reign Is the
third in point of duration in the his
tory of the dynasty. Kang Hsu and
rti' I.en Lung each having reigned and
ruled to years.
The question of the succession has
gitated the Imperial family since the
Autumn of 1907. when it was per
?elved that the health of the Emperor
was seriously undermined. In Janu
iry of 100 the Dowager Empress

nese Emperor to the throne. 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.

under which Hitchcock has been held
