CHINESE CHILDREN.
A Traveller In the Orient Wakes En-

philadelphia Tlmes.J
A traveller recently returned from China
IS most enthusiastic over Chinese chill
dren. He states that they are as pretty
and bright as buttons, and run scurrying
away from wherever you may chance 10
walk in the quarter. The parents are very
fond OF their children, especially the men.
The women do not seem 10 care much Tor
their offspring. but the men fondle the H.
tie ones all day. and love to carry them
about in their arms. 1t delights Chinese
father to have his children admired. The
babies are undeniably interesting. The
little boys assume the dignity Of cue
strings when they are about years or
age. Red is the prevailing color for the
cues OF both the boys and girls. 1t means
simply youth, and has no sinister signin-

Chinese children wear any number OF

little ones play on the sidewalks. Their
games are queer, and the most common
materials, such as sticks and stones, are
pIaythings for the Chinese child. One or
their fayorite games is worm and
bowl, and the screams that greet the
worms attempt 10 escape are frauSnt
with merriment and terror. The little

AMERICANS IN JAPAN.
News from Samuel S. Lyon of Boonton,
q. $. Consul to Osaka.

News from Samuel S. Lyon of Boonton,
q. $. Consul to Osaka.
The CHRONICLE has received this week
from Samuel S. Lyon of Boonton, now
United States consul at Osaka and
Hiogo, Japan, a copy Of the Hiogo Neacs,
daily newspaper printed entirely in
English and giving account of the cele-
bration of Independence Day, which in
cluded display of fireworks, a baseball
match and a dance in the gymnasium,
with performance of Japanese Juggiers
between the dances. In the account of
the affairs, as published in the Neaes, is
the following paragraph; sit should be
mentioned that Mr.. S. s. Lyon, the con-
sui, and Mr.. Hunter Sharp, the vice con-
sui, held the usual reception in the morn
ing at the consulate. Mrs. Lyon held
hers at the gymnasium in the afternoon,
and in serving tea to the large number
present she was assisted by Mrs. Ohm
sted, Mrs. Tilden, Mrs. Happer, Mrs.
Loring and Mrs. Eckley. : Z In the
evening the dancing hall was tastefully
draped with flags, among which the
Stars and Stripes and Union Jack were
especially prominent, and each guest was
supplied with a miniature Stars and
Stripes for personal decoration as well as
folding fan of the same design"
Hiogo and Osaka are shipping towns
of considerable prominence on account
of large American interests there. An
excerpt from letter from Consul Lyon
to Congressman Pitney, written March
Is last, soon after Mr.. Lyons arrival,
gives an idea of the place and character
of the people:
"You may be interested to know that
our American colony away out here in
the far East, comprising about 1875 per-
sons, is intensely American and greatly
concerned in all the proceedings of Con
gress and everything that relates to the
general welfare of our country. Some
have been here long time, fifteen to
thirty years, during which time they
have not once returned home, but their
love for the flag does not leave them.
Many of our people here do not know
whether they are Republicans or Demo
Gratis: they simply know they are Ameri-
cans. The American merchants residing
at this port are gentlemen Of intelligence
and character, well established and wide
awake to American interests, represent
ing as they do houses in New York,
Chicago and other cities in the United
States. The attorneys here are all English.
Do you ever have an idea of tour
ing it some time through this oriental
country? Hundreds are coming through
continually, and think travel this way
will be greatly stimulated, too, by the
fact that. SO much is now going on in
/ this part of the world

4 VISIT 70 THE 'S|NA(E'
Naval Hospital Aid Society Hears
Good Report of Its Work.

Surgeon Streets interviewed Concerning
the Plans of the solace-Much Pleased
With the Work of the Morristown Aid
Work Extended to Army and Navy Hos
pitals-A Box for Jacksonville
Work Of the Morristown Naval Hos
pital Aid still progresses and its scope
increases daily. Always in connection
with the government authorities and
acting under orders from the chief
surgeon Of the navy, the Aid is now car
rying on practical and systematic work
for the sailors, and every article sent to
the front and to the wounded at the
several hospitals along the coast is
placed to best advantage and always
thoroughly appreciated.
On Monday several ladies Of the Naval
Aid visited the hospital ship SoIace at
the Brooklyn Navy Yard Dr. Streets,
surgeon in charge, said that the articles
sent by the Morristown Aid had been of
very great use They had been able to
supply comforts and reading matter to
the sick and wounded and also to dis
tribute reading matter and some delica-
cies among the comparatively well. AS
the Solace visits every ship in the
squadron, removing all the seriously
sick and wounded to her own decks,
leaving medicines and supplies. includ
ing comforts and delicacies for the other
sick on the ships. she comes in contact
with all the sailors and learns we'll their
actual needs. The only item in which
the ships supply was short was that of
shoes; the fifty pairs sent from Norris
town were all that she had received.
Therefore, another shipment of shoes is
now being arranged.
The ladies were greatly pleased with
the appearance of the nurses and, as
usual, the whole atmosphere of the ship
was clean and healthy DIR. Streets ex-
pressed himself as much gratifed with
the work of the Morristown Aid and
suggested several points where he was
confident box of clothing and delica
cieg would be appreciated.
] Boxes of reading matter and delicacies
have been sent to Governors Island, to
Bellevue Hospital and to the army hos
pital at Fortress Monroe, The ladies
will also send this week box of read
| ing matter, including books and maga-
zines, to the seventeen Morristown boys
with the Second Regiment at Jackson
vile.
Several Morristown ladies are giving
almost their entire time and interest to
this noble work and declare they are
well repaid, for in response to almost
every shipment come cheering letters of
appreciation.
