The Chicago Times was a newspaper in Chicago from 1854 to 1895, when it merged with the Chicago Herald. The Times was founded in 1854 by James W. Sheahan, with the backing of Democrat and attorney Stephen A. Douglas, was identified as a pro-slavery newspaper. In 1861, after the paper was purchased by Democratic journalist Wilbur F. Storey, the Times began espousing the Copperhead point of view, supporting Southern Democrats and denouncing the policies of Abraham Lincoln. During the Civil War, General Ambrose Burnside, head of the Department of the Ohio, suppressed the paper in 1863 because of its hostility to the Union cause, but Lincoln lifted the ban when he received word of it. Storey and Joseph Medill, editor of the Republican-leaning Chicago Tribune, maintained a strong rivalry for some time. In 1888, the newspaper saw the brief addition of Finley Peter Dunne to its staff. Dunne was a columnist. After just one year, Dunne left the Times to work for the rival Chicago Tribune. In 1895, the Times became the Chicago Times-Herald after a merger with the Chicago Herald, a newspaper founded in 1881 by James W. Scott.

After Scott's sudden death in the weeks following the merger, H. H. Kohlsaat took over the new paper, he changed its direction from a "democratic" publication to an "independent republican" one. It supported "sound money" policies in the 1896 election. Kohlsaat bought the Chicago Record from Chicago Daily News publisher Victor F. Lawson in 1901 and merged it with the Times-Herald to form the Chicago Record-Herald. Frank B. Noyes acquired an interest in the new newspaper at the time and served as publisher, with Kohlsaat as editor. Chicago Record Herald Sanger, Donald Bridgman. "The Chicago Times and the Civil War."

Hu Zhen, courtesy name Wencai, was a military officer serving under the warlord Dong Zhuo during the late Eastern Han dynasty of China. He was described as an influential man from Liang Province. In 191, he was sent with 5,000 men to resist Sun Jian's invasion from the south. Hu Zhen and his comrade Lü Bu, in charge of cavalry, were not on good terms, so Lü Bu spread false rumours confusing the attack. Dong Zhuo's forces under Hu Zhen were defeated by Sun Jian. After Dong Zhuo's assassination in 192, Hu Zhen served the new government under Wang Yun, but he was displeased with Wang Yun's arrogance; when Dong Zhuo's loyalists Li Jue and Guo Si rebelled against the new government, Wang sent Hu Zhen with Yang Ding and Xu Rong to fight, or negotiate, with the rebels. However, Hu Zhen and Yang Ding joined the enemy; when Li Jue and Guo Si took over the capital Chang'an from Wang Yun, Hu Zhen became the Colonel-Director of Retainers under their command. With his position, he falsely convicted a local officer You Yin, with whom he quarrelled, put You Yin to death.

A few months Hu Zhen became ill, saying You Yin's spirit had come for his crime, died. In the 14th-century historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Hu Zhen was slain by Cheng Pu, a military officer under Sun Jian, during the fictional Battle of Sishui Pass.
