Topography of China better hneWn
in Toxic Than in Pel>in.
Chicago, Oct. 31.-'I have just been
over the road from Moukden to Shank
wan and it is as perfect as ever. Not
only that, but the road affords every
facility for the passage of troops In
the winter from Corea to the great
wall near Pekin. The victory of Japan
is a foregone conclusion" said the
Rev. Maurice J. walker to a reporter
at the Windsor today.
Mr.. Walker has been stationed in
north China by the English govern
ment for the last nine years and
passed through Chicago today on his
way To London to make his report.
The Rev. John X. Robsob, mis-
sionary from Tien Kin, accompanied
him. They left Pekin about a month
ago. Speaking of the war, Mr.. Walker
said:
Japan was obliged to engage in for
eign warfare to prevent a REPETITION Of
the revolution of 1871 in her own do
main. For years she has been prepar-
ing herself; not only that, but she has
carefully laid out her campaign in
China. For over a year a draughts-
man and photographers have traversed
every part of China, until the topo-
graphy of the country is better known
today in Toxic than in Pekin. The
Japanese commanders know that the
correspondents make a mistake when
they say that winter will close the
campaign. I have been over the road
at Moukden at all seasons of the year.
1t is impossible only in the spring. In
winter it is in perfect condition. If
the Japanese can cross the mountains
before cold weather and capture Mouk-
den, which Is the key to the whole
situation, the conquest is theirs. The
500 miles of good road from Moukden
to the great wall at Shankwan can
be covered within a. month";

"BY THE ETERNAL"
Two Characteristic Stories of cold
Hickory"
From the Washington Post.l

From the Washington Post.]
/ General Armstrong, assistant COM
missioner of Indian affairs, thinks that
Andrew Jackson was one of the great
est men this country ever produced
and has number of stories which
were told him by his uncle, who was
an intimate friend of Old Hickory.
One of them Is very characteristic of
| the man.
Lewis Cass, secretary of war, was
over at the White House one day with
some important papers for the presi-
ldent to sign, among them being court
martial findings.
"Cass, what is this?" inquired Jack
son, as he was about to write his name
to the document
Cass.
What have to do with it?" asked
the president.
ct dismisses an officer from the ser
vice, and the president must sign such
orders"
Jackson toyed with the paper and
said, musingly: Dismissed from the
army, Ell? Why?"
drunkenness; getting drunk and
falling down on parade, or something
of that kind" answered the secretary.
"Who ordered the court?' asked
Jackson.
General Scott" answered Cass.
"Who is it?" inquired the president,
with more interest.
''InspectOr-Gener Kraun," replied
Secretary Cass.
What shouted Jackson. my old
friend Colonel Krauni Cass, just read
what that paper says"
The secretary read the usual form of
the court martial sentence in such
eases. The president then took the pa
per and wrote across the bottom where
he was about to sign his name:
THE within findings are disapproved,
and Colonel Kraun is restored to his
duty and rank
He passed the paper back to Secre-
tary Cass, and said with his usual We
hemence:
by the eternal! Cass, when you and
Scott serve your country as we'll as
that man has you can get drunk on
duty every day."
a young man from Tennessee, son of
friend of General Jackson, came to
Washington for a place. He looked
about and found what he wanted. 1t
was in the war department. and filled
by very efficient Wing, whom Secre-
tary Cass would not remove. The
young man told jackson the situation,
and Cass was sent for.
"Cass," said the president, ''this
young man, son of my old friend, says
you have got place in the war de-
partment filled by Wing which you
won't give him.
Secretary Cass explained that the du-
ties of the office were q peculiar kind,
and he could get no one to fill the place

ARE CLUBS DECAYING .
[From the Argonaut.1

Are clubs decaying? Men of fashion,
both here and abroad, insist that a
deterioration set in several years ago
and has progressed until now most of
the clubs are little better than huge
restaurants, not having the remotest
affinity with the club of the past. The
amazing growth in the number of such
institutions is chiefly to blame for the
falling off in quality. To be kept go
ing they must have members, and they
cannot afford to be too particular as
to the kind. In a. recent number of

ter from ga Club Waiter" in which
some striking facts are shown with re-
gard to the reason CT the general de-
teriorat ton in the manner of club mem
bers. The waiter evidently speaks from
long and actual experience, and his
truthful revelations will be cordially in
dorsed by those acquainted with clubs
in the old times. He records, in con-
clusion, the suffering utterances of an
explosive old gentleman: "What?" he
said, shaking his stick at a retreating
figure, that little cad a member of the
Ranunculus-of our Ranunculus? Why,
twenty years ago, sir, he wouldn't have
been allowed to stand on the door mat"
