It is said certain questions We're asked
Mrs. Riddick by DR.. Temple when he at.
tended Mrs Riddick Wednesday, night be-
fore the shooting. which gave Mr.. Rid
dick offense. AS far as the public has
learned, these questions were perfectly
proper, and are said by doctors to have
been necessary to an intelligent treat

Mr. Riddick has not had many callers.

Chinese Business Methods.

It is well known that in matters Of.
business the Chinese are, In general. en-
tirely honest. Mr.. Cameron, now at the
head of the Hongkong and Shanghai
banking corporation in London, was for
many years the head of the branch Of
that bank at Shanghai. Before he left
Shanghai few years ago; he was given
banquet, at which he made speech,
and therein stated that the bank had had
dealings of hundreds Of millions of pounds
sterling with the Chinese. and it had
never lost a penny. This honesty, how
ever, may be said to be a matter which
is enforced by law, because in China they
have a family responsibility for the debts
of all the members of the family-the
parents, brothers and sisters, uncles and
aunts are held responsible, and their pro-
perty is sequestrated to pay the debts of
any member of the family. Three times
year the Chinese settle their debts The
chief settlement occurs in their New.
Year, and 1t is the height of dishonor to
allow the New Year to pass without set
