AN. EXCLUSIVE DIPLOMAT.
How China's Minister Keep. Himself Aloo

How China's Minister Keeps Himself AIoof
from the Social World.
The present Chinese Minister Is very
exclusive in his habits. His predecessor
was one of the most agreeable and pop
ular men in society, and was always to
be seen wherever any thing interesting
was going on, and all the attaches OF the
Legation also took an active part in the
gayeties of Washington. The present
Minister, Mr.. Hen, not only does not
propose to indulge in social festivities
himself, but has prohibited the attaches
of the legation from doing 80, which
deprives Washington society of some Of
its most attractive ornaments. Mr.. Hen
is the first Chinese Minister to the United
States to bring his wife with him, but
he might as well have left her at home
80 far as the outside world Is concerned,
for she, 1t is understood, will remain a
recluse.
A prominent gentleman and lady in
this city, who lived some time in China
and have been very intimate at the le-
CATION ever since it was established
here, called upon the Minister and his
wife the other afternoon, having first
given notice Of their intention TO do so.
The Minister received them very cor
daily in the parlor upon their arrival
and sont servant for his wife, who
came down wearing q coronet OF gold
and diamonds. She is little woman,
no bigger than child of ten years, and
her feet are so small that she could |

few days later the call was returned
With groat ceremony, and then followed

accepted for himself but sent his wife's

he had never dined except in the Chi

A Crank Attempts to Murder Bishop
Whitaker.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Jan. GA DELHI
crate attempt was made Sunday evening to
assassinate the Rt. Rev. o. N. Whitaker,
bishop of Pennsylvania, in the presence of
the congregation Of st. Johns Protestant
Episcopal church at st. John and Brown
streets. The occasion was the confirmation
of eight candidates for membership by the
bishop. The congregation had just finished
singing the first psalter and were still on
their feet when tall, light complexioned,
and genteel young man wearing glasses arose
in the third pew, almost directly in front
of the altar, and was observed to draw q
pistol from his pocket and aim at Bishop
Whitaker.
Before any one could interfere he fired a
shot, but fortunately he was greatly agitated
and his aim was unsteady. To this fact the
bishop owes his life. The shot passed the
heads Of the bishop and Rector Latimer,
who were close together within the altar.
Mrs. Latimer, the wife of the rector, and
several other ladies tainted at the report of
the pistol. The man was seized and said he
wanted to kill the bishop because of his anti
Prohibition ideas and intended also to kill
Rev. Mr.. Mcconnell, of st. Stephens Epis-
copal church. The lunatic's name is David
Alexander, and he is evidently insane on
prohibition and religion.

From an exhaustive study of the

arrived at that many of the masses of
meteoric iron now known are cleav
age crystals, broken off probably by
the impact of the mass against the at
mosphere. 1t is found that these
masses show cleavings parallel to the
planes of all the three fundamental

WARD BEATS THE LEAGUE.
The Reserve Contract a Badly Battere,
Document.

The Reserve Contract Badly Battered
Document.
NEW York, Jan. 29-The great base ball
case, in which the National league tried to
secure an injunction restraining John M.
Ward from playing with the Brotherhood,
was decided yesterday by Judge O'Brien in
favor of Ward. The judge says the iRunc-
ton is denied, but the rights of the parties
should be determined by a trial, speedy
hearing of which he will assent.
Judge O'Brien, in his decision, says that
the contract is neither definite nor conscion-
able Ward does not consent to make con-
tract for 1897 on the same terms as 1889.
The pith of the contract as viewed by the
League is that the player is reserved for
1890 at salary not less than that for 1889
but how much more is he to receive? and in
case of dispute who is to decided
Neither Fair Nor Mutual.
The judge says that according to the inter-
probation of the contract by the League it
binds one party the League) for ten days,
while the other party the player) is bound
indefinitely. The player may be summarily
discharged at any time with ten days notice,
while he may be also held continuously for
life. This is not equity as the advantage is
all on one side.
The Brotherhood is delighted with the de-
cision and the members say that a trial can
go but one way, under Judge O'Brien's rul-
ings
