A Chinese Mathematician.

Wong Chingfoo, the highly educated
young professor at Greencastle on Friday
evening. During the course Of the even,
ing Mr.. Wong stated that among the Chi
nese mathcmaticians were hired at 81 per
week, and were not as good as the most
ordinary men here. They do this work
by machinary. as it were, and it is the
dirty labor of the empire. When Mr.,
Wong first came TO this country to enter
college he was told that it would be nee
cssary to study mathematics two years,
he at once told them he knew mathematics
better than those who were to teach him
in this particular branch. Illustrative o
this, Wong. in his address at Browns
han, offered to foot up several columns
of figures. For convenience, his mana
ager, Mr.. Hawkins, was to name the fg-
nres, but the young professor of mathe-
mates OF Asbury. who was present,
thought he saw flaw there, and at once
came to his feet He asked
"Will you. sir, allow me to give you
the figures p
Certainly, sir. will be glad to have
you do So" was Mr.. Wong's courteous
answer.
Now, then, sir, began the professor.
and he named sum upon sum, not going
beyond the tens of thousands, but giving
him at least thirty different sums to add.
When they were all on paper Mr.. Wong
asked:
"And now is that all, sir p
"That's ALL" replied the professor;
"get ready to add"
Mr.. Wong stood smiling. when the
professor bad Strengthened himself up
and said: I" Now begin" he quietly re.
marked, Very well, sir, here is my
amount" This before the astonished
professor had time to get half way up the
first column
"But you're not through already!' re.
marked the professor.
"Here is the footing of my figures"
was the response; and he read them, the
footing being exact.
"Pl.ase cad that again, SIR" asked
the prosessor-
He did SO, a I'd the astonished professor
was forced to admit that he was right.
The professor was astonished, and was
forced to admit that Mr. Wong did know
something about mathematics.
The mandarin stated that he was not
al extraordinary mathematician, as com
pared to some Of the educated ChiLese

How He Came tgsee the Centennial
While I was sitting in the Centennial

into the room little boy. poorly but
neatly dressed, whose bright face attract
ed me.

That's the old Liberty Bell

exclaimed, What are you all the
way from Tennessee ? How did you come
on 7"
"A man baought me on, but when we
got to Pittsburgh he left me, and came
over by myself"
Did your papa and mamma come
too p
Sadly he said, " I have no father and
mother"
"Had you any money! p
mo; told the conductor l wanted
to see the Centennial, and they brought
me on"
"Well, what are you doing now, and
where do you live ?"

Belmont Avenue. over there, and | wash
dishes. sconr knives, and do chores"
"How did you get into the Centennial,

"Why, ! paid my fifty cents like any
b dy else.'
How are you going to get home ?"
"Why, just the way l came on" with
bright twinkle of his clear blue eye.
i" And, pray, how old may you be p
Twelve years old, and ! came to see
the Centennial"
And all the time he was standing with
one little brown hand on the back of the
chair, the other in his pocket, with broad
brimmed hat stuck right on the back of
his curly head. With few more ques-
tons on my part, to which he answered
that he hoped to be a matchmaker when
he grew up to be a man, he bade us good
