Tho Polite British Waiter.

The extreme politeness Of the average
English waiter is continual source of
merriment
He thanks you when he brings your
soup, again when he brings your nap
kin, when he takes away your plate,
when he happens to find you looking at
HMM fact, ho says, THANK you, at
every turn, and says it in such jerky,
mechanical fashion that you cannot re-
press q smile. His example is followed
by the bus conductor, who thanks you
for your fare and thanks you again when
he hands you your ticket, and by the
theater usher when he seats you, and by
every servant you meet, in the most in
appropriate manner. They overdo the
"thank you" business, and always en-
ploy the same jerky manner and me-

LONDON, Oct. 25..-A dispatch from

nouncing the departure of the feet Of

Kong announcing that Russia had
obtained the right to anchor her fleet

Associated Press are looked upon
generally us sudden re-opening in an
unexpected quarter of the far Eastern
question in the widest sense.
The Shanghai dispatch added that
the Japan fleet in Formosan waters
had been recalled, and several British
ships had been ordered to Corea and
preparations for struggle were visi-
BILE on all sides.
A Hong Kong cable message to
the Times caused that paper to re
mark editorially to-day: Russia
cannot possibly imagine that the
Great Powers will view with indiffer-
ence such destruction of the balance
OF power, which is almost unparal-
leled in it's audacity.
@China's option to purchase rail
ways is jest, almost too cynical to
find Il place in any serious diplomatic
transaction. Under indicated condi-
tons Manchuria would practically
become Russian province while
Pekin would be within Russia's
grip"
1t is admitted here that the situa
ton presented is So grave that should
the news prove true, it would make a
war i'll which several nations will take
part more than probable. 1t should

lieve the story from Hong Kong is au-

The Cat and the IKing.

It was In the spring Of the year 1909
that at the kings instance I had a suite
OF apartments fitted up for him at the
Arsenal, that he might visit me. when
ever Ut pleased him, without putting my
family to inconvenience; in another
place will be found an account of the
5000 crowns year which he was so OBJ
1ging as to allow me for this purpose.
He hOnored me by using these rooms,
which consisted Of a hall, a chamber,
wardrobe. and a. closet, two or three
times in the course of that year avail
ing himself Of my attendants and cook;
and the free opportunities of consult
ing me on the Great Undertaking,
which this plan afforded, led me to
hope that notwithstanding the envy

I have had cause to mention more than
once in the course of these memoirs. He
met me at the door and conducted me
through the rooms with an air Of salts

fault until my wife, looking about her
with a woman's eye for minute things,
paused by the bed in the chamber and
directed my attention to something on
the floor.
She stopped over It. What is this?"
she asked. Has something BEEN"
Upset here?" I said, looking also.
There was little pool Of white liquid
on the floor beside the bed.
La Trape uttered an exclamation of
annoyance, and explained that he had
not seen it before. that 1T had not bsen

did not know how Ut came to be there

He did not finish the sentence. but
drawing a deep breath raised the cup
to his lips. I saw the apple in his

about to give him the lie again, when
