a great breakfast was served, at which
all the attaches of the legation were
present and met the members of Mrs.
Wu's suite.
Two enormous vanloads of luggage
followed the party to the legation.
Overlooking trunks and boxes made
of bamboo were piled high, while there
splints and bagging.
When Miss WI and the members of
her mothers suite are introduced
formally to society it is expected that
the affair will even exceed the magnifi-
cent functions usually given at the
legation. This is the first time in the
history of the Chinese legation that
young Chinese women of high caste
have been brought to this country for
the purpose of entering society.
Nine. WI is already well and favor
ably known in social circles, and her
daughter and the members of her suite
are certain of most cordial reception.
The young women will experience no
difficulty, as, in addition to Chinese,
they, like a majority of the members
of the diplomatic corps, speak French.
Miss WI and the two young women
of the suite are exceedingly small in
stature, but are as fair as many eau
casian bellies. All wore their hair

of all his courtiers. In like manner
the present car, it is said, has on va
rious occasions sought counsel of
Father John and has expressed his ad-
miration of his lofty character and
stainless life.
1t is not, however, as an adviser of
monarchs that Father John is entitled
to distinction, but because he is in the
true sense shepherd of the people.
A son Of the soil himself, he knows the
joys and sorrows of the people thor
oughly, and he has spent his entire life
in an attempt to increase the former
and mitigate the latter. In this work
he has met with such signal success
that most of his countrymen regard
him as a saint, who can perform mir
acles whenever he pleases. And truly
he does perform miracles, though they
are not such as require the exercise
of any supernatural power.
If he uses any magic, it is solely that
of his own wonderful personality.
A born philanthropist, he is waging
incessant war against every form of
sin and suffering, and so strong is his
will that he works wonders where men
less cody or less energetic would sure
ly fail. Strange stories are told of
instantaneous cures effected by him
and of his unparalleled skill in obtain
ing money whenever he needs it for
any charitable purpose. Millions of
dollars. it is said, have already passed
through his hands in this way. Yet he
himself has remained poor, and there
is not a priest in Russia who spends
less money on himself than he does
His admirers claim that he has done
quite as good work in his own field as
Tolstoi has done in his and, further
more, they maintain that the life work
of the two men is intellectually and
spiritually akin, since it is based on
their love for humanity and is designed
to prove the truth of the saying that
love is the fulfillment of the law.
However this may be. no more pic
turesque figure than Father Johns
has appeared in Europe for a long
time,

BLIND AND IN WANT.
Last Days of Jules Verne Move His
Friends to Tears.
Famous French Author, Once the Pet
of Society, Reduced to Affect
Poverty-SOme of His Great
est Stories.

Jules Verne, "he of the great mag
ination," as the French call him, the
writer of 80 fabulously successful nov
els, lies dying at his home in Amiens,
old, blind and penniless. His son is
now in England with the hope of get
ting some of his fathers admirers to
place their names on subscription list
that the dying man may lack neither
doctors nor medicine while he yet lives,
nor decent burial when he dies.
The worlds farewell to the novelist
must be to him a bitter contrast to it's
welcome and to the hospitality he en-
joyed during his stay. From every
point of view his life has been success
full. He had fame in every civilized
country, money in consequence there
of, the friendship of the great among
his countrymen, health and the love of
a devoted wife. To-day the last alone
remains to him. His fame diminished
as his writing waned. He had spent
his money and the faculty of making
more departed with old age. His
friends are dead and he has become
blind
Verne's books were a new sort, diff
ferent in kind from any that had been
published in France. The love motif
was entirely absent. His heroes were
adventurers, travellers, who neverthe-
less, in contradistinction to the
conventional daredevil, spent none
of their time in either getting
beautiful maidens into distress by
breaking their hearts, or in get
ting them out of it by breaking
their maligners' heads. The Verne
adventurers fight and beat other men
or more frequently nature. The laws
of time and gravity are their pet antip-
athies. The tales were all pseudo-sci-
entific. Their author succeeded in &C
comprising the previously impossible,

Bristles is the usual material used
for studding the burr, although it is

Tells Why Guerilla Warfare
Is Prolonged.

lands. Gen. Chaffee sums up the stu
alton in the Philippines from mill
tary point of view by stating that the

area now disturbed by any embodied

of the troops, which is taken advan-
tage of by the rebels and the inhabi

to the fear of assas sination on the part
of the friendly disposed if they give
informa ton to the American forces, is
due the prolongation of the guerrilla
warfare.

ence and fiction, two creatures of an in
compatible temperament, happy. At
least so far as the lay world could
judge.
But he himself was not made happy
by his work. In his later days he has
been frequently melancholy, because,
as he continually said, he thought he
had accomplished nothing worthy in
literature. A favorite remark of his
has been: "Je ne compte pas dams la
literature Francois" Il amount to
nothing in French literature"
Georges Sand, the great woman nov
elist, admired his tales. After reading
several stories which he wrote about
balloons and flying machines, she
asked him to take another tack.
One of his greatest novels, Given
ty Thousand Leagues Under the
Sea-" followed. Then one of Cooks
tourist time tables gave him the idea
of "Around the World in Eighty Days.
which is the best known of his writings.
Even to-day, when by means of the
transcontinental railroads a traveller
manages to make circle around the
earth in less than so days, he is wont to
boast of having defeated the resource
full Phineas Fogg.
Verne was not a traveller. He never
tried to visit any of the places he wrote
about. The majority of the sites he
writes about are inaccessible to mem
bers of this age and genera ton, any
how, and maybe their describer thought
it was not worth while to go to the
rest. He always said his hardest work
came when he had to read up about the
places he had not seen but would de-
scribe.
He worked hard, fact shown by his
output-sO imaginative novels in less
than 40 years. Arising at 4:30 in the
morning, he worked till II before eat
ing; then came breakfast, and in the
afternoon four or five hours more of
work.
When the first draft of book was
done he corrected and recorrected I'M
til he had gone through the proof
sheets seven or eight times. His pub
fishers say that his last correction
looks entirely unlike the first draft;
that the outlines of the plot and even
the names of the characters are
changed.
Verne began to write at the age of
~. Poetry, it was then. and dreadful,
too" he says himself. When graduated
from college he. went on the Paris
bourse and in a few months specula-
ton lost considerable money. He was
always glad of it, however, because he
claimed that he was thus enabled to
see at close range that nervous energy
and lightninglike thinking which
makes his heroes interesting.

DAINTY AND PRETTY
Daisy WI, Daughter of Chinese
Minister at Washington.
just Like a Picture on an Oriental
Fan-Will Be Introduced to So
ciety Before the Winter
Is Over.

"A Washington telegram to the New
York World says that bundled in furs
and robes, and resembling nothing so
much as rolls of rich cloth, Nine. WI,
her daughter, Miss Daisy, and the two
young women of high caste who con-
stitute her suite, arrived at the Chi
nese legation early the other morning.
With them came half score of serv!
ants and almost a carload of baggage.
Minister WI and all the members of
the legation were at the railway sta
ton to bid Mrs. WI and her young
charges welcome. AS the travellers
were assisted from the train all tried
to talk at once, except the imperturb-
able minister himself, who, after
singing out his wife and affectionate-
ly greeting her, shook hands with the
young women who accompanied her.
His daughter, Miss Daisy, who is as
dainty as picture on a silk fan, greet
ed the minister and then began looking
out for the comfort of her mother.
All the young women will assist Mrs.
WI in her social duties during the
coming season. The daughter will be
formally introduced to society at
-, dinner and dance in the near future.
The ladies chattering volubly in Chi
nese and French, the party entered
carriages and drove to the legation.
Just as they arrived Chow Chou, the
minister's 14-year-old son, came whiz-
zing under the porte cochere on a BIZ
cycle. The young ladies looked at him
in wonder Chow Chou greeted his
mother and sister in much the same
fashion as any American boy would
have done, for this youngster insists
that he is an American. After kissing
his mother and his sister, Chow Chou
stood his bicycle up on the edge of the
pavement and watched the two young
women of the suite get out of the car
riage.
With mincing little steps the women
in the party entered the house, where

A Souvenir.

Senator Nelson has recently received
beautiful souvenir from his native
land which he prizes very highly. 1t is
an elegant polished elk's horn mounted
in solid silver and set upon very sub
stantial pedestal.
In Norway it is an old custom to have
horns of oxen polished and prepared
for drinking use. In fact, Senator Mel
son says the old saying, Take horn, :"
originated in the land of the midnight
sun. 1t is still the prevailing social
function in Norway to pass one of the
finely prepared polished horns around
among guests, after it has been filled
with wine or other liquid refreshment.
Each guest takes sip and passes it on
to the next. This is something of an
innovation over the older custom,
where each person to whom horn
was presented was supposed to drink
its entire contents.
