doubt soon take the place held in the
curiosity of the people of Washington by
little Miss Mi, the daughter of the late
minister, though they will not possess
the same distinction of having been born
in our national capital.
Yang Yu differs most from the ordi-
nary Chinese in wearing a mustache,
which is black, slightly tinged with
gray He is 50 years Of age, thickset
and portly, and carries himself with the
air of q man accustomed to lord it over
others. He is extraordinarily clothed
both in apparel and authority, and from
Chinese standpoint is a man to be rev.
erently kotowed to. His rai1nent is OF
the most gorgeous brocaded silks, and
his power is practically supreme over
the legations Of the three countries to
which he is accredited. He appoints
consuls at San Francisco, New York.
Havana, Matanzas and Callao and
charges d'affaires at Madrid and Lima
and is responsible only to the emperor
for the manner in which the offices are
conducted.
Minister Yang has the implicit conf
dence of the Chinese government. Two
years ago he was appointed to investi-
gate the riots against foreigners at Ching
Kiang, and the international complica-
tons arising from the outrages we're all
settled on the basis recommended by
him. He is a man of advanced ideas,
with friendly regard for the United
States, and will do his utmost to main
tain cordial relations with our govern
ment. He speaks no other language
than Chinese, but will have the assist
ance of good interpreters. One OF them
is Man Yew Chung, q graduate of Yale,
who was coxswain Of one OF the famous
university crews in his collegiate days.

immortalized by Mark Twain and ''Sun-
set" Cox, and considers himself the par
ticular friend Of all Americans and all
Americans particular friends of his.
His friendly greeting indicates this,
and his record proves it. For more than
so years he has been the guide and coun-
selor of Americans visiting Constantine
pie, and many an unlucky wight igno-
rant of the peculiar customs Of that land
of misrule is indebted to PARKWAY Moses
for getting out of some unfortunate
scrape. This has not been Improbable
to Moses in a pecuniary as well as SEN
timental way, for Of the round million
at which his fortune is reckoned he
doubtless owes great deal to his friends
from the United States.
It is remarkable that no one seems to
know any other name for him than Far
away Moses, the name Mark Twain said
he was so proud of, though he is said to
be pasha. At 70 years of age he is
still we'll preserved physically and is a
remarkable conversational in most Of
the modern languages.

"FARAWAY MOSES"
One of the Most Conspicuous Characters II
the Midway Plaisance.


the Midway Plaisance.
In the Turkish village at the Worlds
fair a fine looking old man, dressed IN a
rich Ottoman costume, greets VISITORS
SO cordially that he is apt to set them
wondering where they ever met him be-
fore. If they ever have met him before,
they do not wonder, for it must have
been on the shores of the Bosphorus.
and if they have ever met him there
they never could forget him. 1t Is posi-
BILE that some. of his cord1allty may be
due to notion on his part that he may
have met the visitors before and does not
wish to seem to have forgotten them.
He has met good many OF them, and
his memory is surprisingly good, but it
would be quite impossible for him to re-
member all the Americans he has met
and done good offices for during the past
so years, for the list includes all our dis
tinguished citizens who have visited the
east, and great many who were not
particularly distinguished, besides all
the naval officers who have been in our
Mediterranean squadron, from Farragut
and Porter down to the present time.
He is the famous "Faraway Moses, |"

view with the car. Nothing more
amusing can be imagined than Miss Mar
COTS account of the rivalry that existed
between the grand old man of politics
and the grand old man Of poetry, the one
anxious to talk all the time and the other
equally DESTROYS to read necessarily his
favorite poems aloud until WEAKNESS in
duced every one of the listeners to glide
softly away, leaving the laureate reading
aloud all by himself at one end of the
boat and Gladstone talking all alone at
the other end.
During the Emperor Williams last
visit to London Miss Tenant made a
wager that she would force him to speak
to her, and by clever maneuver she
succeeded in doing SO while riding in
Rotten row. So pleased was he with
the acquaintance thus formed that he
subsequently waltzed several times with
her at the state ball in Buckingham
palace.
Her father, Sir Charles Tenant, who
owes his baronetcy to Mr.. Gladstone, is
the head of the great chemical firm
which boasts of the loftiest chimney in
Scotland. His country house, 'The
Glen" is exquisitely situated on the
banks of the Quarl, near PEBBLES.
Miss Tenant recently gave a ball at her
fathers house in Grosvenor square. The
gathering was remarkable for the num-

Lord Rosebery and Mr.. Gladstone. Mr..
Balfours marked attentions to his
charming hostess were the means OF
reviving the rumors of their engagement
which were current about a year ago.

WAS NOAH BURIED TWlcEi

two Graves of the Patriarch. One of Which
Is Sixty-Eour Feet Long.
In a former article gave pen picture
e the 'stomb of Noah as it now exists
near the ruins of an old fortress at
Nakhtchevan, Armenia. According to
Eastwick's Three Years In the East,
this old Armenian tomb is aelually Wis
tied by thousands of pilgrims of all
faiths, including Mohammedans and
Turcomans, who make wearisome jour-
neys Of hundreds Of miles in order to do
reverence to our common ancestor. But,
like all other relics which have the be-
ginning of their history in tradition, this
supposed tomb of the builder of the ark,
half hidden among The hoary ruins on
the Armenian plains, has rival stand
ing almost within the shadows Of the
cedars of Lebanon.
Henniker's Palestine In 1890" says
About two miles east of Zakhle is the
village of Kerak, not far from which, on
the last deciivity Of Lebanon, there is a
round mosque. This is erected over still
older relics which are held in great rev
erence by Moslems and Christians alike,
it being the reputed tomb Of Noah the
Patriarch. The structure is now a part
Of an ancient aqueduct and is regarded
by superstitious thousands as being a
place Of eminent sanctity. Walls have
been built around it, and at certain sea-
sons of the year the Maronites in particu-
lar make long pilgriS9ages to visit it.
In his old age, SO tradition says, Noah
entreated God as a particular favor that
he might be allowed to end his days in
the shade of the beautiful cedars Of Leb-
anon, and there to prepare his place of
burial. The patriarch's prayers were
granted, but shortly before his death he
committed some transgression, and to
punish him God cut off part of the
tomb which had been constructed to re-
ceive the patriarch's remains.
This being the case, 1t is clear that
Noah could not be buried at full length,
butwas laid to rest with his legs doubled
up under his thighs. So as to make the
remains conform with the size of the di-
minished tomb. But, taking everything
into consideration, he must have been q
giant Of giants, for the tomb, even in
it's curtailed state, is "a feet long. st.

THE ART OF ORATORY.
Evidence That 1t Is Not Declining In
Congress.

The Silver Debate Furnished a Theme For
Sauae Notable Maiden Speeches In the
House of Representatives New Menu
sbers Who Distinguished Themselves.
We are sometimes disposed to de-
nounce the degeneracy of the times and
to lament among other things the de-
cline of forensic eloquence in American
public life. This falling off has been so
persistently proclaimed by pessimlsts
and philosophers generally that many of
us have come TO accept the proposition
without question. Fortunately for those
hopeful citizens who are inclined to take
issue with the croakers, recent events at
Washington have fuzgished evidence that
oratory is not a lost art.
Whatever else the silver debate may
have accomplished, it has opened our
eyes to the fact that the country still has
plenty of bright, powerful and eloquent
public speakers, and that when occasion
offers new men can be found who are
perfectly qualified to fill with honor to
themselves and their country the high
places which have been so long occupied
by the veterans of statecraft. The mouse
of representatives has been particularly
prolific of new material, and the coun-
