France passed off favorably to-day.
Sousas band was in attendance. The
United States ambassador, Gen. Horace
Porter, presided and delivered an address.
1t was in part as follows:
First let me extend a cordial greet
ing and on earnest welcome to all VINO
have gathered here to participate in the
impressive ceremonies which are to fol-
low. The occasion is freught with pecu-
liar interest. We come together to-day
to dedicate a statue of Washington in the
home of Lafayette. The patriotic ladies'

sister republic, could not perpetuate in
enduring bronze a more exalted charnc-
ter His name is the synonym of unselfish
patriotism. sublime heroism, answering
virtue. When entrusted with the task Of
defending the liberties of his country, his
towering genius brought order out of
chaos turned weaklings into giants and
sna tched victory from defeat. His NODES
ty was equal to his courage. He never
moderated himself in a battle: he never
overrated himself in report He reached
the highest pinnacle of human greatness
and covered the earth with his renown.
His name will stand immortal when cpl

ments have crumbled into dust.
His ashes were laid TO rest In the bosom

Consul General Gowdy made the pre-
sentation, and the French minister of for

half of France.
NJ. Delcasse In his reply, eulogized the
character of Washington. saying:
Washington was as great a statesman
as captain. His mind was eminently
practical and well balanced, and finds Is
place again in this constitution, under
whose shelter the republic of the United
States has undergone, in barely century
a prodlgous development which compels
the admiration of old Europe, and which,
at the same time, gives it cause for re-
fection. 1t has inforced a principe
whose justice is absolute, no matter what
may be the latitude temperament or Gus
toms. and that Is that public powers
should move in full independence, within
the clearly defined sphere of their attrib-
utes, by the side of parliament whose de-
cisions impose themselves supremely and
become the law of the country"

Writing reJently from Tien Tsin, the cor
respondent of the London Standard gives
the following specimen of the inf1amma-
tory placards posted by the Boxers in the
northern provinces:
Gods assist the Boxers.
The Patriotic Harmonious Corps:
1t is because the Foreign Devils disturb
the Middle Kingdom
Urging the people to join their religion
To turn their backs on Heaven:
Nenerate not the Gods and forget the
Ancestors.
Men violate the human obligations;
Women commit adultery.
Foreign devils are not produced by man
kind.
If YOU doubt this.
Look at them carefully;
The eyes of all the Foreign Devils are
blush.
No rain falls,
The earth is getting dry;
This is because the Churches stop the
Heaven.
The Gods are angry,
The Genii are veXed;
Both are come down from the mountains
10 deliver the doctrine.
This Is not hearsay.
The practice will not be in vain
To recite incantations and pronounce
magic words.
Burn up the yellow written prayers;
Light incense sticks;
To invite the Gods and Genii of all the
grottoes (halls).
The Gods will come out Of the grottoes,
The Genii will come down from the
mountains,
And support the human bodies to prac-
lice the boxing
When all the military Accomplishments
or tactics
Are fully learned,
1t will not be difficult 10 eXterminate the
Foreign Devils" then.
Push aside the railway tracks,
Pull out the telegraph poles.
Immediately after this destroy the
steamers
The great France
VIII grow cold and downhearted.
The English and Russian will certainly
dispense.
Let the various Foreign Devils" all be
killed.
May the whole elegant Empire of the
Great Ching dynasty be ever proper

WILL PROSECUTE CAPTAINS.
Claimed They Pushed Drowning Per-
sons From Their Tugboats.

New York. July "A sensation was
created to-day by the announcement from
Mayor Pagan of Hoboken that he will
prosecute all tugboat captains against
whom charges of refusing to save life
can be substantiated The Mayor says
he will apply at once for warrants charg-
ing two tugboat captains with murder,
and that he has evidence to prove that
these men used boat hooks to keep drown
ing men from climbing on their tugs be-
cause the unfortunates had no money. An
effort Is to be made also to have the Ii
censes of offending captains revoked.
Mayor Pagan of Hoboken says that as
soon as witnesses to the affidavit of Third
officer Krouse can be brought before him
and prove the charges he will begin i'm
mediate action against the tugboat cap
tain He refuses to give the name of the
captain of the tugboat until the charges
are proved.
Tugboat captains deny these statements,
and offer a reward of $1,000 for proof that

cruelties.

spect.
The tea itself is called guest tea" and
is not intended for drinking 1t has a
more useful mission than that of allay-
ing thirst Alas for the barbarian who
drinks off his cupful before ten words have
been exchanged and confirms the unfav-
orable opinion his Chinese host has al
ready entertained of the manners and
customs of the West. And yet a little
trouble spent in learning the quaint cere-
monies of the Chinese would have gained
him much esteem as an enlightened and
tolerant man. For, while despising West
ern men outWardly, the Chinese grandees
know well enough that inwardly Western
men feel themselves superior. and thus il
comes to pass that a voluntary concession
on the part of Americans or Englshmen
or Frenchmen to any of their points of
etiquette is always most amicably ac-
knowledged.
Etiquette of Guest Tea"
To return to our muttons. guest tea
is provided in a Chinese interview TO be
used as a signal by either party that the
interview is at an end A guest no sooner
raises his cup to his lips than a dozen
voices shout to his coolies to bring his
chair; So TOO, when the master of the
house is prevented by other engagements
from playing any longer the part of host,
he makes a motion as if to drink his tea,
and forthwith the guests chair is called
for Without previous warning-unusual
except among intimate acquaintance
this kuest tea is never 10 be touched eX-
cept a signal of departure. Strangers
meeting in China may freely ask each
other their names, their provinces and
their business prospects. II is always con-
Sidered compliment TO an old Chinamau,
who is justly proud of his years, to inquire
his age, and il takes the curious form of
Your venera BILE teeth" but middle-aged
celestials do not as a rule care about the
question and their answers can rarely be
depended upon. 1t is also good form in
China TO ask the number and sex of a
mans children; also if his father end
mother are still "in the hall" i. e., alive.
His wife, however must never be alluded
to- even in the most indirect manner.
Friends meeting, either or both in sedan
chairs, stop their bearers at once and get
out with all possible expedition; the same
rule applies 10 acquaintance meeting on
horseback.
Chinese etiquette is a wide field for he
student, and when the open door we
hear much about has become a condi-
ton instead of a theory it will have to be
studied more closely by all the Western
nations. Just at present. however. It is
