ABOUT CHINA.
Address of Rev. William Pott ut ST.
Matthews Church, Yesterday.

Address of Rev. William Pott ut ST.
Matthews Church, Yesterday,
Rev. William Pott, a missionary to
China, addressed the congregation Of
st. Matthews P. L. church at the morn
ing service yesterday on the customs
Pott was in attendance at the Episcopal
and manners OF that country, Mr..
council at Weston last week and was
prevailed upon 10 stop over Sunday in
Wheeling on his way to New York.
He il quite an interesting figure
in missionary work and is now presi-
dent Of st. Johns college, Shanghai.
Although q comparatively young man
he has accomplished great deal in his
chosen field, his success being mainly
due to adopting the social customs and
manners OF the people with whom he
labored-eVen going so far as to shave
part OF his head aud raise a very re-
spectacle "pigtail" or queue and FOL
lowing their style Of dress. He did more
than this, ior he married the daughter
OF the first native convert Such as
similation with an intelligent people
like the Chinese would not fail to pro-
duce an effect.
His address yesterday morning was
interesting on account OF his treatment
OF his subject in dwelling on the details
OF the home life of the Chinese aud
their social customs and manners, He
said that the birth OF girls was not
hailed with that delight that obtains IN
Christian countries; that the advent OF
q son was made tho occasion of feastlng
and other expressions OF Joy by the fond
parents. The aversion to girls in fact
was carried to such an extent in some
parts OF China that females were put to
death as soon as born. The boy, how
ever, is carefully nurtured. AS soon as
no is one year old he is placed on mat
on the floor surrounded by various arti'
cles, and the one he touches first de-
cides his future career. So ifhe touches
n rule he will BIO carpenter, q needle
u tailor, book scholar, etc. The am
bition of all Chinese parents is for their
"hopefuls" TO become great scholars.
The speaker said there we're three
characteristics that recommended the
Chinese youth as n pattern, aud that
was diligence, obedience and polite
ness. Mr.. Pott then recited the for
malities pracsiced on meetings China
man, and ali tine little civilities that
went to make up the perfect gentle
man, The remainder OF his talk was
devoted to description OF his work in
the celestial empire and the character
istics Of its people.
In the evening Mr.. Pott spoke to q
Jorge congregation at St Luke's chapel,
on tho Island.

How Did IL Happenq

The Presidents declaration of his in.
tention to convene Congress in extra
session to take hold OF the financial
question stidened up the stock market,
as was natural. Any Spectator would
have paid handsomely for the infor-
nation con the quiet" The New York
World is authority for the statement
that Wall street firm had the tip and
played it to a handsome profit The
Nail and Express asks the World whether
1t realizes that "this allegation involves
scandalous accusation against the ex.
ecutiye department"
It has been said that Mr.. Cleveland
made q clear million in Wall street on
the strength of friendly tips. This was
before he entered on his second term as
President. The country would require
the proof before it would believe that q
President Of the United States had
made use OF his office for speculative
purposes. If the World be we'll advised
somebody very close to the President
must have known Of his purpose and
used that information as the World
says
It is certainly "scandalous accusa'
ton" and should start close invcstiga,
ton in tho executive department. Il
the President has near him and in his
confidence somebody who is running Q
private Wall street "ticker" the sooner
he gets rid of him the better.
OF course it is possible that the World
is mistaken. The World recently felt
authorized to quote the President as
saying that nothing that appears ii
the New York Sun concerning him car
possibly be accurate" But the Wal
street story appeared in the World, not
in the Sun.

Responsibility for tho slaughter,

Responsibility for the Slaughter,
The circumstances OF the case fix
positively the responsibility for the loss
OF life, the manning aud the misery
caused by the collapse OF the old theatre
building in Washington, 1t was motor
iously weak aud unsafe and had been
condemned,
The attention OF Congress had been
called to its condition and that body
had been urged to come to the rescue,
Nothing was done about it because to
do something meant an appropriation
and Congress thought it could save
money by letting the old rattletrap take
its chances. The human lives in peril
made no impression on the legislative
mind.
The responsibility being where it is,
provision should DO made at the public
cost for every one OF the injured and
for the family Of every man whose life
was offered up on the altar OF his coun-
try'a parsimony.

A DOUBLE CROP

Grown on the Same Ground-Successtni
Experiment with Tomatoes aud Lettuce
at the State Experiment station.
10 he Editor Of he In'el!igeaesr
SIR:-I send you by express to-day
some samples OF our greenhouse toma-
toes This is the last crop that will be
taken from the houses. These are
grown on vines which are trimmed up
in order that crop OF lettuce can be
grown underneath them; thus securing
two crops at the Same time. What Is
more, each crop is benefited by the
other, for were it not for the tomato
vines producing shade, the lettuce
could not be grown at all on account OF
the extreme heat. While, by pruning
the tomato vines in order to regulate
the density OF shade and room for the
lettuce, it gives better returns both In
size and number OF pounds OF fruit pro.
duced. Tomatoes enjoy great deal oil
sun, while lettuce can not thrive IN the
same condition; but by taking both to-
gether, the returns are nearly double
and space greatly economical
Points like the above are worthy OF
the greatest study by our horticul-
turists, as green houses cost money, and
every foot OF space should be utilized
to It's greatest ability.
We have taken off three crops OF
lettuce, and now have large crop OF
tomatoes coming of; all OF which were
grown from seed after the middle OF
December, when the green house was

THE WASHINGTON CALAMITY

Whether the Post says it or not. every

ating truth will understand that Fri.
days tragedy was direct, logical, and
long.foreseen result Of tho mean dema-
gogy that paradea spurious economy
at the cost OF justlce, decency, and
humanity. For years the clerks and
other Federal employees have been hud-
died in innunerable death-traps, to lose
their health by slow degrees, or die out
right by sudden accident, in order that
few selfish imposters might taunt
themselves before a crowd OF gulls.
