A recent traveller in China has some.
thing to say of John Chinaman that may
well MI the hearts of all Americans
with envy. He remarks that John never
seems to get tired or nervous. He can
write all day, work all day stand in one
position all day, weave. beat gold, carve
ivory. do infinitely tedious jobs forever
and ever. and experience no more wcari-
ness and irritation than II he we're u
machine. This quality appears in early
life There are no restless, naughty
boys In China. They are all appalling
ly good. and will plod away in school
without recess or play of fany kind. The
Chinamnn can do without exercise,
Sport or play seems TO him so much
waste OF labor. He can sleep anywhere

The San Francisco call., 1899-07-14

the American Motor Company joined
the parade in Fifth avenue. One was a
Dedion tricycle., in charge of A. A.
Fischer, and the other was a De Cau-
vile basket phaeton. Both of these
were operated by gasoline, and, unlike
the American machines, had their mo-
tor levers and gears fully exposed to
view. They attracted much attention
all along the route.
Going up Fifth avenue. Mr.. Davis led
the procession at a leisurely pace.
Scores of bicyclists swarmed around his
carriage and handkerchiefs were waved
to him and his wife. The automobile
moved over the asphalt in Fifth avenue
at moderate speed, owing to the num-
Der of other vehicles that were encoun-
tered. Above Fifty-ninth street the
pace was increased When up grades
were encountered most of the automo-
biles moved more slowly, but the loss
of time was made up on down grades
Mr.. Davis carriage, however. kept an
even speed, regardless of grades, which
indicates a surplus of power that will
be useful for hill climbing.
