From the Chicago Times Herald
Mr.. Borden of Kenwood made arrange
ments a few days ago to turn the joke
back upon the Buffaloes if any Of them
tried to initiate him. He went to the
bank and got handful of pennies and a
lot of dimes, and put them into one of the
outside pockets of his overcoat, where
they would be easy to find. He was not
going to be caught without eleven cents
in change If he knew it.
During the forenoon Mrs. Borden came
downtown and called on her husband,
probably Just to make sure that he was
well, or it may have been that she want
ed 20 see what kind of a looking young
woman his new stenographer was, or
there may have been some other reason
why she dropped in" At all events, she
suddenly entered his office and sat down
to stay awhile. During her visit Mr. Bor-
den was called to the office of an attor-
ney. on the floor above, and while he was
away his wife looked through the pigeon
holes and the various drawers Of his desk.
Then she sauntered carelessly over to the
door behind which his overcoat hung and
fumbled around there for a while.
When he returned she said she would
have to be going, and he, pretending TO
be sorry she was in hurry, led her out
TO the elevator
At lunchtime Borden expected to have
some fun. lie knew Of place where half
dozen pikers always met and he felt
sure that II he went in where they were
gathered they would at once propose to
initiate him into the order OF the Buffa-
loes.
So he went to Bankhead. the attorney
on the floor above. and 10 three or four
other good fellows who had Offices In the
building. ana invited them 20 90 along 10

THE CHINESE INDEMNITY.
Figure Named by Us the Absolute
Limit of China's AbiIity-WiI-
ling to Take $50, 900 ,O00.

Washington. March 22.-Further inquiry
into the Chinese indemnity question makes
it appear that the sum of $500, 600. 900, which
our government considers the maximum
that should be levied upon the Chinese as
a tax represents absolutely the limit of
Chinese ability. according to the calcula-
lions Of the officials best informed as to
the resources Of China. The figures named
do not represent the aggregate of the in
IDENTITIES claimed. On the contrary, it
is understood that these are very much
larger.
The United States fixed upon the sum
of SIS, 10000 as a suitable indemnity to be
claimed. Notwithstanding that officials Of
the various departments are satisfied that
this sum will only provide for the pay
n,ent of a certain percentage of the items
claimed because it was felt that this was
as much as we should claim proportion
ately of the total of 5000, 900.
1t is not che intention to divide this
$4,000 900 into as many equal parts as
there are powers, but, while dividing it
.nto eight or ten parts, 20 see
TO it that these parts are so
proportional as to compensate the
powers in accordance with the outlay they
have been put to in suppressing the Boxer
troubles. This government would be will
ing to abate the $25 100000 claim If the
other Powers would reduce their claims
in the same proportion. But although in
grave doubt, whether China can pay more
than 100000 900 our government feels IT.
self bound to secure compensation for Its
citizens and itself to the same extent as
is secured by other powers.
