CHINESE D D FEAST.
Hirdss Nests, Sharks, Fins. Glxzards
and Garlic the Favorsss Dsshen

L
Very swell, indeed, was this wedding
feast, though it did not happen to be a
thoroughly Chinese affair" DR.. Fan
ny Oakley describes in a most interesting
fashion the Chinese feast at the celebra-
ton of the wedding of the merchant, Chin
Hun Lee, given recently at "a Pell street,
New York. and at which she was the only
lady guest. The bridegroom Is a
wealthy man, and his feast cost 5000
but there were no shoddy people there,
just the -Four Hundred of Chinatown,
although his poorer countrymen were al
lowed a free lunch at his expense for
three days.
The menu comprised thirty courses,
and nothing escaped me" says DIR.
Oakley. I'VE ate with chop sticks, and
had no plates, everything being served
to us in bowls. We had nothing but rice
wine to drink, which tasted like very bad
whiskey, and whenever the bridegroom
filled the glasses 1t was a great breach of
etiquette not to drink them to the last.
This very unique bill of fare contained
all the deiectable tid-bits of their Chinese
Delmonico. and the dinner began with
fruit-oranges. Chinese ~pineapples, very
insipid canned pears. plums and peaches.
A very attractive side dish in green and
pink proved to be picked cucumbers and
shrimps.
Next in order were chicken kidney and
gizzards stewed in a sweet thick syrup.
tender young pig and star fruit, picked
ginger and ducks eggs, provided just the
preliminaries to the dinner.
The next course consisted of sharks
fms. fried chicken with mussels. and
chicken with the bones removed and
stuffed with nuts. Then came a morsel
of chicken. of duck, of ham,, tied together
with tender bamboo in a bow knot. These
zach made a single mouthful.
Now came the famous birds nest
this was followed by sharks fins served
with garlic, which tasted much like glue.
A stew of chicken, mushrooms, ham and
waternuts came next, but it was difficult
TO detect the stew from the oup or the
soup from the stew A peculiar dish was
- fungus Of a tree which is rare and
expensive; then came another connection
OF nam, nuts and chicken in cakes.
The dessert consisted of odd-looking
cakes of something equally like bologna
my plate, and left there. Chestnuts stew
ed with rock sandy and melon tasted like
rank rain water. Jelly concluded the
feast, and then the betel nut was passed.
betel nuts after a meal among the guests,
and If a young man offers a betel nut
to a young woman and n accepts it, the
fact indicates a reciprocity of affection
between the two.
Two things were noticeable in this
feast; the absence of vegetables and the
lack of salt and pepper, which rendered
most of the dishes insipid, while vine
gar was evident in all the preserves I
VIII add confidentially that when the cele-
bration was over my husband and my
self went to g restaurant and had some
thing to eat"

THE AGE OF MINORS.
A Defecs in the Wsrtss Law saves a
saloon Keeper.

0N0 ft6U
TRENTON, Sept. q, lSs6.-An impor-
tant defect in the Werts Liquor law,
which is of interest to every saloon keep
er in the State, has been discovered by
City Solicitor George S. Macpherson. In
rendering an opinion to the Excise Com
missioners Why the license of John
Schneider for selling liquor to a minor
should not be revoked. the City Solicitor
stated that the Werts Liquor law pro-
hibits the sale of liquor to a minor. but
does not say what the age of the minor
must be, leaving the question to be regu-
lated by the Act of 1880.
The act fixes the age at IS years, when
liquor can be sold to either male or fe-
male minors. The fact that all saloon
keepers have always understood the law
to fix on q years as the age Of minors,
is due to a nfusi of law. There is
another separate act which was enacted
In 1S46. which prohibits the sale of liquor
ITO minors under the g Of 20, who are
lege. or academy IL this state afe'0'' This
discovery saves Saloon Keeper Schneider
his license. He had sold to q boy aged
Is years..

Of any advantage to Us. The careful
reader win see that the Old Fox of Fried

remotest way on the subject Of free coin

that his advice is really about as specific
as that of Captain Bunsby. of oracular
memory,
But while he is careful not to commit
himself to any great extent, the Man of

objection to Americans putting their own
construction upon his enigmatical ex-
pressions. n thus tnmbling of their own

financial pitfail of the centuries. He
would be glad to see us take to free coin

our people and cripple our commerce.
Any European statesman of the narrow.
selfish school. of which Bismarck is the
greatest living example, would be glad
to see US deIuged with cheap silver while
Europe absorbed all the gold in sight.
Germany would be particularly interested
in the ruin Of our commerce and industry.
She has infant colonies n "infant in
