perior excellence of the article.
Well, our friend Chulalongkorn is
decidedly "Chow," has been so very
"Chow" he could not visit a country
whose ruler was nothing but a presi-
dent, not hedged round with the di-
vinity that fences in king. Of late,
however, he has been endeavoring-
he himself is more or less progressive
to prepare the minds of the Siamese
for the innovation of visit to our
humble nation; and it is to be hoped
the visit will eventuate. We would
very much like to entertain Chula-
longkorn; would like to encourage
Intercourse with his country; would
like to pay our respects to modern
lied eastern ruler; would like to
learn something of that Land of the
Free" as the Siamese call it.
And perhaps we should not be con-
sidered conceited if we were to sug-
gest Chulalongkorn also might find
Il interesting and instructive to visit
us. We have done little, you know,
in the way of invention, in the way
of developing resources, in the way of
government, that might be worth
studying. 1t is to further progress
in trade and reform in administra-
ton for his own dynasty and people
that Chulalongkorn travels abroad.
The kings knowledge of English is
sufficient to enable him to dispense
with an interpreter when conversing
with Englishmen. In appearance he
resembles an English gentleman. To
the influence of an English govern
ness, who had care of his early edu-
cation, is said to be due the enlight-
ened views which have given him a
unique place among the kings of
Siam. Before his time, he assembled
the throne in 1868, the utmost servil-
ity was demanded of those entering
the kings presence; now, though in
dulging in considerable state and GER
emony on occasions, Siam may be con-
sidered to possess a ruler with dem-
ocratic tendencies.
Yet Siam is still Siam. At Bangkok,
the capital city, no bridges can be
DullJ across tHc TlNeTs DeCdusc ~
would be a lasting disgrace If ever
anyone were to be higher than the
kings head, and il there were a
bridge, perhaps the king, passing
along some day in his barge, might
undergo the dreadful experience of
having some one walk on the planks
above his head So the matter is set
tied simply by allowing no bridges
built.
This superstition in regard TO let

atively) is interesting. Suppose a
hostess have call upon her lady

a more exalted position. If the host
ess should happen to be tall and the
visitor short, one wonders how they
arrange matters when Handing.
Siam is no land of anarchists, the
ruler walks abroad unafraid of the
hand of an assassin. No king of Siam
has fallen from an assassin's blow.
ChulalonglSorn goes about freely, and
if he desires to dispense with state,
takes seat in trolley car, pays his
fare, and rides as quietly as may be,
no guard, no private detective con-
stantly on guard to defend him. He
has, of course, soldiers he might call
upon some fancy-looking cavalry
men one sees about Bangkok-but he
feels quite at ease going about unat-
tended.
All that Siam means to many peo-
pie is that it is the country that
brought forth the Siamese twins, the
country that has white elephants on
its hands. The Siamese twins are no
more, but the white elephant is; he
is one of the ancient superstitions
that have survived. Once every year,
hunters are sent up to the northern
part of the country, near Ayuthia, to
look for these creatures, sacred ami
mails within whom dwell the spirit of
Buddha, or the spirit of some royal
one. These elephants are not really
white, but dirty grayish color. They
are caught with great rejoicing,
brought down with great ceremony,
put in the palace grounds and there
kept and cared for religiously. They
are given servants, stables and titles,
become lords of the realm. They
walk around in parades, but never do
any work; are much INDUCED, so be-
come spoiled, and are heaps of trou-

BILE, very hard to manage, always
needing two attendants.
The kings religion is Buddhism,
which is the prevailing religion Of
the country. Prosecutions of mis-
sionaries are unknown in Siam; on
the contrary, the Christian mission
aries are treated with favor.
That eternal "Chow'' we have
spoken of would make it very diff
cult for king of Siam to find fit
ting royal spouse If it were not that
the questionable the bridge at Bang
kok-is settled simply. The king, who
must have for queen lady of rank
equal to his own, marries his half
sister, his fathers daughter. This
fact appears more or less startling,
but there is precedent for the GUS
tom. The Pharaohs mated in the
same way, and for the same reason.
The king has only one queen, but
has a large harem. His children are
numerous, and there are many
princes. The Crown Prince Somdeteh
was sent to England to receive train
ing for the exalted position to which
he is heir. The next two princes,
Baripat and Abba, also have been re-
ceiving their schooling in England;
Baripat is destined for military, and
Abba for a naval, career.
Chulalongkorn, If he were not so
taken up with the femininity that
surrounds him, perhaps would have
more time to earn the name of pro-
gressive ruler. To be sure, when we
remember the enervating influences
at work on the king, weather as well
as women, we respect what he has
done. Male subjects that enter the
kings presence need not PROSTATE
themselves as in the days of his pre-
decessors; early in his reign an edict
was issued that freed Theoretically
children born to slaves after a GER
tain date; in his day schools have
been founded, a school for girls as
well as for boys; in his day, the tele-
graph, the electric light, the tram
way, and railway, have been intro
duced into Siam; and a certain wei.
come has been offered by him to for
eigners who have brought outside en-.
terprise within his gates. But a coun-
try where taxation is so great bur-
den, royalty so extravagant-all those
wives and children are a very expen-
sive luxury, and need so many Jewels
slavery existent in fact if not in
name, ideas very lax concerning the
payment of debts, laws neither inst
nor justly administered, seems to us
scarcely merits unstinted praise for
its ruler.
This summary of the king of Siam
and his household, summary evolved
by Mr.. Percy Standing Cross, appears
to us true and suggestive: "The ST.
aTnese royal family is at once the
acme Of oriental antiquity and of orr.
entail modernity."

Chulalongkorn l., of Siam, has Of
fered very little at our hands in the
way of irreyerence. Principally for
one reason--we don't know him. But
If, as is rumored, Chulalongkorn
should condescend to visit the United
States of America, there is no doubt
before long his name and face would
become familiar to our citizens; in
teryiewer, special writer and cartoon
ist would see to that.
Already in our minds eye we see
his kingly name trif1ed with, short
ened by our impatient countrymen to
Chu. You remember when Hawaiian
royalty graced our land with her
presence we at once affectionately re-
duced Liliuokalani to "Lil," and Lift
uokalani is not much more of
mouthful than Chulalongkorn. His
name in full is His Majesty Parabat
Somdeteh Pra Paramidr Mahali Chul-
alongkorn Pra Chula Chom Klao.
In our dealings with him we must
handle him with gloved hands, be
very careful; for there is a good deal
of "Chow" about Chulalongkorn.
"Chow" to us is more or less mys-
FERROUS, has more or less of eastern
mysticism connected with it, but it
is something sacred and must be re-
spected, even by us irreverent Amer
leans. AS far as our crude western
