Another Old Mason.

During the session Of the Grand Lodge

While Mr. Liening Is entitled to the
credit of having been elected delegate
to help form the first Grand Lodge" the
fact that he was on prospecting tour
when the meeting for that purpose took
place" does not contradict the assertion
that William Schuyler Moses was the only
living member OF the fraternity at the re-
cent Grand Lodge session who was pres
ent at the organization of the first Grand

Ernest F. Fenollosa delivered an inter-
esting and instructive lecture on "The
Landscape Art and Poetry of Medieval
China yesterday afternoon in the par
lors OF the First Unitarian Church. The
lecture was the second Of the series on
Art in the Orient" which Mr. Fenoliosa
has agreed TO give under the auspices OF
the Claiming Auxiliary. The speaker re-
vealed a side of the Chinese character
which has hitherto not been touched upon
TO any great extent by American speak
ers-
The lecture was appropriately illus
trated by photographs of the master
pieces of the ancient Chinese masters
The Illustrations showed the intense love
for wild scenery and wild nature which
once animated the now seemingly stoical
Chinese. The speaker pointed out how
the Chinese artists had interviewer into
their work representations of the forces
of nature.
In his remarks Mr. FenolIosa stated
that Buddhism has played a great part
He said that Buddhism exerted a positive
and not negative influence on the Chi

measure counteracted the crystallizing
tendencies of Confucius' teachings

CHINA ASKED
FOR CONCESSION
United States Desires
Opportunities in
Tientsin.
State Secretary Favors Estab-
lishment of a Trade
Center.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CALL BUREAU. 1406 C STREET. N.
W., WASHINGTON, Oct 19.-China has
been asked by the United States to recog-
nize its right to a municipal concession In
the city of T.entsin. This action has been
taken by Secretary of State Hay in order
that American trade in the Celestial EN-
pire may be placed on the same footing
as that of all the great nations.
This Government owned concession In
Tientsin many years ago. but its title was
relinqushed during the Cleveland admin
istration and was incorporated in the
British settlement. with the understand
ing that should it ever be needed 1t would
be returned.
The time has now come. in the opinion
of Hay. when II is desirable that Ameri-
can merchants and other Americans re-
siding in Tientsin should live In an ADer-
lean jurisdiction. and he therefore in
structed Minister Conger to obtain from
China a new grant. which will definitely
fix the boundaries of the concession.
The United States will be the last OF the
great nations to acquire a concession at
Tientsin. During the preliminary peace
negotiations at Peking, Russia seized
territory at Tientsin. and her claim to 1t
was recognized by Ii Hung Chang as
Viceroy of Tientsin. At the same time
France and Japan extended the limits Of
their concessions. and Austria and Bel
gium also secured concessions. Great Brit
ain and Germany already possessed suf-
ticient land. 1t is not expected that emma
will attempt to oppose the request OF the
