This condition reached its climax and perfection in the military power

The second great requirement-the second lesson man had to

Good Points in ~
American Women
BY WI TING FANG,
Chinese Ambassador y he Uniisi si,iss.

Let me begin with their SELF-RELIANCE. I find it mani
tested everywhere; in the home, on the street, on the railway trains.
Wherever you meet her the American woman appears perfectly able
to take care of herself
Their QUICKNESS AT C~OMPREHENDING, the readiness
with which they grasp a subject of conversation, is another Of their
good points. They have a sense of perception that is both remarkable
and decidedly pleasing -
American women are busy women; THE DO SOMETHING.
Such a thing as ennui is almost unknown among them, and this is
another of their many commendable traits.
Far from least among their good points is their desire and
ABILITY TO LOOK WELL. They dress becomngly and attrac-
lively.
THEIR SINCERITY N STRIGHTFORWARDNESS may
be given a prominent place among their good points. They go at
everything they attempt with a sincerity that is a guarantee Of sue

suggested by Coils p. Huntington. who
held that all New York freight des-
tined for Texas and California should
he taken by steamer to Galveston in
stead of to New Orleans. This would
save some 300 miles of rail transporta-
ton on a part of the railroad between
New Orleans and Houston, which is
already overcrowded with business.
The city of Galveston gave the COM
pany frontage on the bay and the work
of erecting the wharves and ware
houses was begun, but it was called to
a sudden halt by the big storm, which
destroyed the work, then nearing COM
pletion. This delayed the change more
than a year. The Southern Pacific,
however, did not abandon its plan, but
went on with the work.
OF the fleet of twelve steamers here
tofore employed in the New Orleans
service, only four will continue to ply
between New York and that city. The
business transferred to Galveston will
amount to some $30.000,0 900 a year in
imports and $20, 000,O00 a year in ex-

addition to the accommodations for

for the gathering are also well ad'

fered to furnish a model army hos

An extensive ambulance service is also
contemplated, placing those vehicles
