even when there are ladies in the party, his

violation of etiquette to allude to her. Mrs.

ever dined with the wife of a Chinese noble,
and she was entertained by Mrs. Ii Hung

wife of the manager Mr.. Sheug, of the
telegraph service, arose and made what is
believed to be the first public speech ever
delivered by a Chinese woman of rank, in
her own country at least, perhaps in the
world. She explained in a hesitating man-
ner, and in her own tongue, the desire or
herself and her associates to enlist the CO.

was also translated. expressing the thanks

this point all the Chinese ladies present
arose and bowed several times in acknOwl-

Chinese lady physician then made
speech of some length, giving more in de-

several foreign ladies responded. Before

Dry Goods.

NEW YORK. Jan. 20.In the local market to-
day at first hands the strength added to the
market by the developments of the last few days
was very apparent. In all lines of cotton goods
the sentiment is stronger than heretofore AL
though sellers do not find it advisable to advance
prices as yet, they still very stiff in their
attitude toward buyers. Advances in both
tras and odds in print cloths are reported, and
this tends to give frmness to the market. Print
cloths show slight advances and a very much
stronger tone in Eastern frst-hand markets Ex-
tras have been sold to the extent of 5000 at
21kc plus / per cent Further bids at this fig
ure were refused to-day. Bids for 3S19-inch
ga squares at Lice were also refused. 1t
reported that there is a steady demand for both
extras and odds. Eastern and Southern goods
are practically on the same basis Prints
are generally firm. They are in somewhat irres-
ular demand.

however, secured the bulk at Is Sgd. A choice
selection of Australian secured was much sought

CHINA BECOMING MODERN.
Her Women Emancipating Them
selves from Ancient Customs.


selves from Ancient Customs.
w. E. Curtis's Washington Special to Chi
cago Record.
few weeks ago at Shanghai there was
a remarkable invasion of ancient CnlneSe
customs and an event that could not nave
occurred outside of fairy tale two years
ago. 1t illustrates more forcibly than any
thing that has happened how modern IDEAS
are penetrating Chinese society and how
rapidly the restrictions that have been inn
posed by the policy of exclusion are being
broken down. Three native young women.
who We're educated at the University or
Michigan, persuaded ten Chinese ladies,
wives of mandarins of the highest rank, to
invite fifty foreign ladies TO be their guests
at luncheon at a restaurant in pubic
garden in the suburbs of Shanghai, mostly
frequented by foreigners, for the purpose or
discussing ways and means for the estaD-
nshment of a school in that city in which
the daughters of the nobility may obtain a
modern education. 1t is believed to be the
first time that noble women of China, in
their own country have sat at the same
table and eaten from the same dishes with
women Of a foreign race, and, what Is even
more remarkable. it was at their invitation
and with the sanction and at the expense
Of their husbands. Hitherto q barrier more
formidable that the great Chinese wall has
separated the women of the two races.
and. although the men have mingled in
commerce and often in social gatherings,
a native woman of rank who voluntarily
appeared among foreigners would have been
eternaliy disgraced and condemned TO per-
petual secluSion. II not to a worse fate But
iron this occasion they sat around table
as their command OF the English language
would permit, ate French cooking with
knives and forks, drank each Others health
and even made speeches. When a China
