the Same To-day as a Thou

At dinner party in Washington, the
new Chinese ambassador discussed
American fashions satirically, says the
New York Tribune.
Nov, in China he said, "our fash
ions never change. / wear the same
sort of hat, the same sort of coat, the
same sort of shoes, that man in my
position wore thousand years ago.
And it is the same with the Chinese
women Their fashions also have not
changed in | know not how many
dynasties. Long ago, in China, we found
the costumes that seemed to us the most
graceful and the most comfortable, and
we cling to these costumes. We love
them.
"But you-here in America-how often
is it-every week-every fortnight
that you change your fashions? Only
the other day / met on the street an
American naval officer of whom / am
fond. He had parcel under his arm.

"'Come,' | said, let us have a little
chat-a comfortable little chat

He said hurriedly:

is a bonnet for my wife. Were to stop
and talk, the fashion in bonnets might

member. and for the past ten years he
had been one of Benefits pensioners"
receiving his regular weekly salary just
as he used to when he was young and
spry, but with the understanding that
ne needn't do any work in return. Still
even up to the end he used to come down
to the Office to fix the files and once a
week he would distribute the pay envel-
opes to the effice force with scrupulous
regularity.
Patrick was messenger for the Her.
aid in his active years; but his feeling
of responsibility was just as powerful
as if he had been managing editor. He
was legacy from the older Bennett and
from Charles Nordhoff.
Once on a time a new correspondent,
who thought to effect saving in office
expenses, discharged Patrick, not know
ing of his peculiar relations with the
proprietor Patrick went over to New
York the next day and as soon as tele-
graphic connections could be estab-
lished the eager young correspondent
was assigned to another field of duty.
Patrick held on to the very last and
when he died few days ago it was
found that he had laid by over $4,000
and had three or four fine houses out
in the northwest He was bachelor,
with no near relatives and nobody has
yet been able to find will. SO there
maybe rare pickings for somebody

able messenger boys estate.

In 1897 Tammany got 233, 997 votes
out of SIG, $780, Because the opposition
was divided, Tammany won.
In 1901 Tammany got 265,177 votes
out of 615,510 for candidate of high
personal worth. 1t lost because the OPP
position was united.
This year Tammany must win more
than 800, 900 votes, with a candidate
who will probably be inferior in
strength to Shepard, but with public
resentment against it somewhat blunted
by time.

good corn count,

in Iowa, but it isn't--it's Chicago.
The fact is Chicago is not all city.
1t is part country, and corn is grown as
staple crop in the country section.
Within the city limits may be found
considerable number of farms of a
considerable size, and if you travel in
or out of the city on most any one OF
it's &c railroads you will pass through
large fields of corn, of wheat, OF oats,
and of vegetables, and on the ground
on which they are grown city taxes are
being paid. Some of these farms are
laid out in town lots with streets and
avenues running through them, and
while the farmer waits for the pur-
chaser of his lots he tills the soil as
he did of DID,
Nor do all of these Chicago farms
lie about the outskirts of the city.
One of them, at least, is located in the
very heart of the business district, and
the value of the ground on which the
corn is being grown is estimated at
81 900 a square foot. 1t lies at the
foot of LaSalle street, not more than
stones throw from the stock ex-
change building, and within ten min
utes' walk of the board of trade.
But this corn field is a diminutive
affair. 1t measures IL by 40 feet
square, and the farm hand who has
cultivated it is paid 500 per month.

up, it went down. My young friend
might have gotten out with compare
lively small loss during the day, but
he was sure. In two days his margin
had been eaten up. There was nothing
left to re-margin his holdings, and his
money had gone to feed the bears.
A board of trade man told me that

Dearborn and State street clerks and
the small retail merchants OF the city.
