In costume a Chinese policeman Is
something between circus clown and
football player His breeches are
always baggy, and very well wadded-
so clumsy you wonder how he gets
around in them, particularly when. as
is often the case, he wears a coat,
also thick and clumsy, coming well
below the knees. Dark blue is the
prevailing color, set off with bands
and facings of lighter blue, red green.
maroon and brown. but never yellow.
That is the sacred or royal hue. per-
mitted to nobody below the rank of a
vicerov.
In the treaty ports. that is to say,
those open to foreign influence and
commerce, the police force is largely
made up of Sikhs from northern In
dia. The reason. perhaps, is that the
Chinese themselves are essentially un-
warlike; they have a proverb to the
effect that mo good man is ever
soldier AS men in the pay of the
Chinese government. whether natives
or not, they have taken an active part
in the present trouble in China.
The police rank officially as gendar-
merle, in Pekin the head of them is
always a Manchu. Policemen must be
plentier than blackberries in the Chi
nese capital. The sacred or imperial
walled city keeps between $4,000 and
10000 of them. This walled city is
two miles square, with two great
gates in each wall-face half mile
from the corners, and a mile from each
other. Broad streets stretch straight
from one to another. thus cutting the
space inside into a big nine block.
Police stations are scattered all along
the nine squares. especially around
their outer edges, which face upon the
passway inside the wall The head
of the police has charge of all the
city gates. They are nine in number
since the side next the palace
proper has an extra gate, in the exact
middle OF the two-mile wall Police

Corps. They do not carry arms. not

guns and cutlasses in racks at the sta

they hear the signal gun. This is
fired by an officer whose special charge
II is, either upon orders or if in his
own judgment it is necessary. The
penalty for firing 1t at the wrong
time is severe-it may be. degradation
and Punishment or strangulation.
Upon parades and reviews the po-
licemen are always armed. especially
if foreign devils are to witness the
review or the parade. The weapons
are curious looking, but wicked in the
extreme-the three hooked spears they
all carry in particular make Jagged
and ghastly wounds. Besides the 20,
900 within the wall, Pekin maintains
a force of IA 900 with which to regu-
late affairs in the outer city. They are
under command of the same general
officer and governed by the same regu-
lations, though there are variations
arising from the difference OF situa-
tion. Men and officers alike furnish
their own uniforms, but are armed by
the state, and receive monthly rice
allowance in addition to their pay.
The chief gets a fair salary, but the
men and subordinate officers are
meagerly paid. Notwithstanding they
make and save money enough to re-
tire after moderate terms of service
Influence in the shape OF cold cash

even more than anywhere else in the
world. In fact, but for the presents"
the force is allowed to squeeze out of

Theodore Dilks. of Camden, n. j.,
with Spain. Being venturesome
young fellow. he was quite delighted
when he was sent out with scouting
party near Mantarzas.
Hours after he was found wounded
by men IN his own company and was
carried into the dwelling house on
the ruined plantation OF Senior Mou-
chez
For weeks he lay there with other
wounded soldiers. The pretty daugh-
ter OF Mouchez volunteered to help in
nursing the blue-eyed Camden soldier,
who suffered for no want of. attention
One day when Dilks had about re-
covered and was nearly ready to rejon
his regiment. the senorita told the
story of their love to her father.
The old senior was furious. No
daughter of his should marry out of
her race and out of her country. Diks
went sto the father and pleaded, but
the senor was unrelenting
There were many changes after that.
Dilks returned to his home. The Sc
norita. her father having lost his for
tune, became school teacher. She
was one of the Cuban teachers who
came to this country some weeks ago
to study American customs and edu-
cational methods.

The new king of Italy, says writer
in discussing the characteristics of
Victor Emmanuel III. is small in stat
ure. His legs are short, his jaw enor-
nous, his chin projecting. The upper
part of his face he takes from his
mother, the bushy mustache from his
father. Reticent and mysterious, it
is not easy to know his inner thoughts.
Brought up affectionately and careful
ly by Queen Margherita, he is the
product of her mind In his early
youth he was good student; they say
that his hobby was numismatics. He
has done nothing SO far that could at
tract attention.
Victor Emmanuel H. was the "Fa-
