OLD VIRGINIA COURTESY.

went in the old days in Virginia are
hardly appreciated by the people OF TO-

Willard.
Il WAS reared in that strict school OF
inherited customs and traditional OBJ
servance, and woe to me if departed
one iota from the teachings OF my
seniors. One point had been particu-
larly impressed upon my youthful
mind, to wit: That when guest was
at the table as long as he showed dis
position to eat it was impolite not to
keep him company. That is to say, it
was fiagrant breach of manners not
to go right around with him and de-

in such a cause A kinsman of my
family rode one day across country to
our home, a distance of some thirty
miles, and arrived at our farmhouse
just as we were about sitting down to
dinner. The long horseback ride in
bracing atmosphere had whetted his
appetite to an edge of preternatural
keepness. The table was we'll supplied
with every substantial dish, but the
way the viands disappeared before this
cousin was something astonishing.
EVERY member of the household tried
to bear him company to the end. but
in vain. He ate every blessed one OF

seemed to my immature mentality that
fate had selected me to uphold the hon

after my appetite had been surfeited.

MANCnCRlAN QUESTION sfIIltD

PORTS AND RUSSIA WITH.
DRAWS OBJECTION.

Washington, July 1S-lt was learned
last night that the state department
had received reply from Russia
stating that it neither would receive
nor consider the matter of the Jew
ish petition on the subject of the
kischineff incident. This information
came in the form of a cable dispatch
st. Petersburg. to whom was com.
mitted the delicate task of inquiring
of the Russian government as to its
attitude with respect to the presenta'
ton of the petition. 1t is believed
that this will end the matter and that
no further steps will be taken by this
government to bring the views Of the
petitioners to the attention of Russia.
although as yet no consideration has
been given by the president to the
course to be pursued in the light Of
Russia's response to our inquiry.
Manchurian Question Settled.
The Manchurian question has been
settled satisfactorily to this govern
ment. Assurances have been received
from the Chinese government that it
will in the near future open treaty
ports now closed to the worlds trade.
The Russian government has con-
veyed formal assurance to the
United States that it will not in any
way oppose such opening.
While the ports to be opened are
not yet specified. it is gathered from
the communications received that they
are Moukden. the principal inland
port of Manchuria. and Tatung kao, at
the mouth of the Yalu river.
The state department is highly graf
flied at this outcome, feeling that it
has secured not only for American
commerce, but for the commerce Of
the world at large very substantial
gain.
Although no set time is mentioned
in the promise to open the ports. 1t is
believed that this will follow soon at
ter the Russian evacuation in Septem-
Der.
