A DelAed American.

A CORRESPONDENT writing from Can.
ton, says that Ward, the American fi.
buster, who went TO China and entered
the service of the Emperor, aiding in sup.
pressing the rebellion, has been deified
The people accept al the gods that may
be decreed, and now that an American
has been thus favored, they viii have still
more confidence In our country and coun.
trymen. The correspondent says:
Ward was Of great service 70 the EN-.
peror In putting down the rebellion. His
success was wonderful to the Chinese,
and at the time when he was accidentally
shot by his own men, they looked upon
him as the greatest General that had ex.
listed for two thousand years.
At his own request, his coffin was left
at Ming Pc, according TO Chinese custom,
above ground and uncovered. Nine
months after 1889 the Emperor ordered
the body to be removed to Sung Kong,
and deposited In the court. yard of the
Temple OF COnfucius Within the temple
Was set up tablet bearing his name a.
the Captor ofSung Kong and many other
cities.
1.-THE Emperor has seen at to 90 fur
ther, and, in . recent edict, has placed
manding shrines to be built and worship
to be paid to the memory Of this Ameri-
can.
"The people are worshipping him along
with the most ancient and powerful def
ties of their religion - great deliverer
from war and famine-as powerful god
in the form of . man. In every house
hold, school and temple, his name will be
thus commemoratcd. The remembrance
Of millions Of people secures his immor-
tality."

his visitors being planters from the South,
were well known to Owen Grimes, and
had the freedom of his house One OF
these, Mr.. Houston, had on one occasion
been called to passing boat without Civ

weeks later Mr.. Huston was again in

Peculiarities Of tho Arabs.

No Arab II ever curious. Curiosity

chance are forbidden BY the Koran. Never,
moreover, invite an Arab TO take walk

Although the Arabs are on occasion
good walkers, they have no notion OF
walking for amusement, they only walk a.
matter of business Their temperance,

exercise for exercise sake unnecessary.
They cannot, therefore, understand the
pleasure of walking for walking's sake.

when they sec Europeans walking up and
down in . public place In Algeria, they
say, look, look, the Christians are going

The Arab does not even mount on
horseback except as matter Of business
or for his public fetcs and carousals. And
when you do walk you must never walk
quickly. Just a. In speaking, you should
not talk fast or loud, for the Koran tells
you: "Endeaver to moderate thy step,
and to speak in low tone, for the most
