CHINATOWN WAS AN ARSENAL"
The Six Companies Instructed the Chinese pop
ulation to keep within the limits OF their own
premises, an order winch WAS pretty ecierally
Observed But the chinese were not AFRAID, al
though they did not care 10 provoke 1he NAL
contents.
They are desperate fighters when at bay, and
lave no special horror OF death.
But they are not fond OF being hacked and
hewed, and Drained with bricks.
They betook themselves to the tops Of their
houses to view the procession from afar, and
studied the expressive designs OF the trauspar-
eucics with much interest, but maintained a dis
Greet distance.
There were not many Of the nobs in view
either. They doubtless wished to aToid the
storm Of insult and derision which they antici-
2ated an appearance might bring forth. But
the only one uf them who did show himself
found himself knocked around among the spec-
1ators in tnc most brotlcr)y manner, and no
comment made whatever
In Short the workincmen conducted them
Selves contrary to ex.,cctation. in sucf, manner
that tie greatest yay1lIcr could tino no fault.
