they are introducing modern medical

has taken place in the diplomatic circle,
and new ministers are being sent to the
leading courts OF Christendom. First,
1t was announced that Lo Feng Luh was
to be minister to Great Britain. A week
or SO ago commission was ordered to
go to England to represent the emperor
at the diamond jubilee of Queen Vic
toria, and. within the past few days a
new Chinese minister has arrived in
Washington. The striking peculiarly
Of the new appointments is that the men

gave me his opinions of Huxley and
Darwin. He was then secretary of the
navy OF China, and was the chief as

the idea that the only way of getting in
to office in China is through the Ii erary
examinations. This Is not altogether
true. Most appointments are made in
that way, but when high official, such,
for instance, as Ii Hung Chang, sees a
person whom he thinks will be valuable
to the governm mt he calls him into his
service. He can give him place with
out such examination. IL is the desire
of the emperor TO get the ablest men he
can TO do his work, ard it was III this
way that became an official"
THE CHINESE CIVIL SERVICE.
"How about those literary examine
tons. your excellency! Are they fair,
or is there not great deal of fraud con-
nected with them2"
II suppose there is fraud in all things,
replied the minister, but i think that
our examinations for office are Just about
as fair as such examinations anywhere
all over the world. 1t is almost impos-
sible for a student to cheat his way
through. You see man has to go
through number of different tests be-
fore he can become high official. First
there are examinations in the district
city, near the home OF the student.
Here the boys from all parts OF the dis
irict meet. They answer questions,
write poems and essays. The test is so
rigid, that out of perhaps , 900 students,
not more than twenty will pass. This
examination is not for office. Those
VINO pass it, however, have the right to
enter the examinations ior the second
degree. These are held at the capital
oil the province or state in which the
student lives. They are held once every
three years, and there are thousands
who compete in them. The examiners
are noted scholars. and those who pass
have the right to go into the great tX-
amnaiions at Picking. II they pass
there they have a good chance OF re-
ceiving an official appointment. 1t is a
great honor 10 pass all the examinations,
as very few Of the thousands who enter
are able to do o."

"Have you seen many evidences Of

Chinese"

minister. But our people are, you
know, very ingenious people, and |
have no doubt that many wonderful in
ventions have been created in the past
and lost because there was no patent law
to foster or preserve them. We have
instances of such things in our history.

other such inventions. Now, 1t is fact
well known to every Chinese gentleman
that one OF our great generals of the
past who lived during the latter Han
dynasty, about 22o A. D., invented
wooden horses and hufialoes to be used
for military purposes. These horses
were worked by means OF machinery
placed in their insides, and they moved
rapidly over the earth, carrying men on
their backs. They were used in battle,
and 1t was by means OF them that this
general conquered the enemy. Every
Chinese boy knows OF that invention,
hut the details OF /. have been lost and
never rediscovered. have no doubt
that we nave invented many other things
which have met with ike fate"
At this moment one Of the Chinese
secretaries called upon the minister and
our interview closed. Upon leaving the
minister gave me his latest PHOTOGRAPH,
writing at my request his autograph in
English and Chinese upon IFS lace. The
photograph was made by Chinese pho
togtapher at Shanghai and S as good as

Lncoln's Inn, London, and alter that re-
turned to China and practiced at Hong
Kong. 1t was at this time that Ii Hung
Chang, who keeps bis eyes out Tor the
brightest young men who know any
thing about foreign affairs, discovered
him, and later on called him 70 the SER
vice of the emperor, and 1t is largely
through Ii Hung Chang that he now

the United States The new minister's
name is WI Ting Fang. He is Judge
a man of forty-five years of age. He
has pronounced Chinese features, having
high cheek bones, light brown COM
plexion, and eyes which are even bright
er than those of Ii Hung Chang. He is
seldom at loss for word, and is man
of ideas and actions. The door of his
room at the Arlington hotel was opened
for me by his little son. a bright yed
Chinese boy OF about nine years, who
was dressed in long. red gown reach
ing down to his feet and little black
skull cap, which fitted well down over
his head, browning features as sober as
those OF the sphynx. When the minis
ter came in he took my hand, in Ameri-
can fashion, and then turned and drew
on plum coIored sack over his long
silk gown, as he asked me to be seated.
A FKw QUESTIONS, A La Ii HUNG CHANG
His excellency opened the conversa-
tion by asking a number OF personal
questions. He picked up my card and
read the names OF the several newspa-
pers printed at the corner.
"Ah," said he, n see that you write
for many papers. Do they all pay you
Tor your letterss You must make

modestly replied that was able to
live. Whereupon he very politely asked
me number of other questions about
newspaper work in the United States,
and especially as to the profits which
are to be derived therefrom. After a
few such questions saw that / was the

over the cataract TO death.
