In speaking Of bicycles the ambassador
made the remark that it seemed as if all
the world was on wheels, and if the roads
in China were good enough undoubtedly
his people also would ride bicycles.
Ii Hung is very much interested in the
building Of railroads, and predicts that
where there are now only 300 miles Of rail
road in China in few years one will see
many miles under construction. The
method probably pursued will be an invi-
tation to foreign capital to como in and
build, granting it liberal concessions with
the privilege TO China TO purchase at a
fixed price ut q named time
On Thursday the ambassador sont for
Captain Randlo and thanked him for the
attention and courtesy shown him on
board the ship, for the service and gon-
eral accommodations Of the party praised
him for the way the ship had been run,
asked him many questions about his
duties and the duties Of his officers, their
salaries, etc, and wound up by saying
that the St Louis was indeed the queen
of the ocean.
The ambassador entertained Senator
John w. Daniel, of Virginia, and Mr
Theodore W. Cramp, of Philadelphia.
During his conversation with Mr.. Cramp
the Chinese statesman asked him why he
withdrew some of his investments during
the last few years, and after Mr.. Cramp
gave his reasons the Chinese traveller re-
piled: ''Oh yes, you don't want all your
eggs in one basket" Thus again showing
his knowledge and appreciation Of some
of our sayings. In talking of the religion
China, the ambassador said they were get
ting very liberal.

Manitoba Pnrochial school question.

WINNIPEG, Man, Aug. 29.-Premier
Lnurier's efforts to settle the Manitoba pa
rochial school question seems to be futile.
The compromise accepted by the Green
way government does not suit the Roman
Catholics. The official organ of Arch
bishop Langevin, who is now in Rome
consulting with the pope on the question,
has this to say in a leading editorial ::
Nothing but our separate parochial
schools will satisfy us. A settlement
which restores to us only the ghost Of
the shadow Of our rights we will never ac-
cept. The bare permission of the clergy to
visit schools and teach catechlsm will not
do. To put plaster over a fostering sore
only makes it break out with renewed
virulence elsewheren

BOARD OF HEALTH MEETS.
A Regular Monthly Session Held Last
Night
SALARIES OF OFFICERS INCREASED
The Health officer Determined That the
Laws Shall be Enforced and Arrests an
Indifferent Woman, But She is Re-
leased on Promising Observance.

The Board of Health held regular
monthly meeting last night in the Council
Chamber, the following members being in
attendance: Messrs. Spalding Malone,
Morrison and McIIae, and Secretary Curtin
and Health Officer Conry.
The session was a short one and but little
business was transacted the most important
being the increasing Of the Secrctarys and
Health officers salaries. 1t had been re-
| commended by the committee on accounts,
and in making the motion Mr.. Morrison said
the increase by no means gave the officials
| the salaries they earned. The motion to in
crease the salary Of the Secretary from Sl3 to
! Sl5 per month and that Of the Health Officer
| from S35 to $40 per month was carried.
In making his monthly report Health
! Officer Conry stated that he had given atten-
tiOn during the month to twelve complaints
of nuisances. In several of the cases abate-
ments had been instituted and in the others
assurances We're given that steps would be
taken to abate the evils. In relation TO COM
plants against some properties ON White
street, between Centre and Oak, he said
several of the owners were negotiating for
sewerage connections
The Health Officer also stated that he has
trouble frequently in impressing upon the
minds of people, especially women, that the
health laws prohibit indiscriminate visits to
houses where contagious diseases exist. Yes
tcrday woman persisted in visiting house
on East Lloyd street where there was Il case
of typhoid fever. She was placed under
arrest, but when half way to the ChicI
Burgess office her pleas to be released were
granted upon promises to remain from the
house of her friend until after the abatement
of the disease. There is but one case O
diphthera and one of typhoid fever in the
borough at the present time.
The committee ON neurology and epidcmcs
made the following report During the montl
of August, ending on the 2sth inst, there
were 40 deaths in the borough. OF this
number, however, five were still births
leaving the actual number of deaths at "A
