at New Chwang in the indefinite inter-
val of time between the expected Rus
sian withdrawal and Japanese occu-
patton of the port. Secretary Hay to-

again sending a warship to New
Chwang to safeguard American inter-
ests and as far as possible to prevent
cutrages upon other foreigners by brig

1t is believed an intination has been
conveyed from the British government

TWO COMPOSERS.
Rossini Was an Easy Worker. While
Meyerbcer Was Strenuous.

Rossini Was an Easy Worker. While
Meyerbcer Was Strenuous.
Giacomo Meyerbeer went at every
thing ferocfously. The work of COM
posing made him restless, excitable
and caused him many sleepless nights.
This condition was always worst In
the spring of the year. He did his best
work when the wind howled, the rain
poured down in torrents and humanity
generally sought refuge indoors. Dur
ing such natural upheavals the great
composer was In his element. Deluged
with ideas, his fingers charmed from
the piano the rarest and most wonder
full melodies.
Compared to Meyerbeer, Rossini was
an easy worker and always ready with
his pen. Some of his most charming
compositions originated under the most
commonplace circumstances. One day
while the composer was still abed en-
tertaining few friends the poet To-
tala brought him the words to the cele-
brated prayer song In Moses" Ros-
sini read the text, and the poet, fear
ing some sarcastic remarks on the part
OF the former, said, ut took me an
hour to write these verses"
IAN hour to write such verses?"
cried Rossini. 'I'll set them to music
in a quarter Of an hour"
He asked for pen and paper, and in
ten minutes, while his friends chaffed
the author, the great maestro wrote
that inimitable prayer song in his OPP
era, Moses"

The Amounts . Creditor May Accept
In Different Coins.
Ordinarily when debtor appears be-
fore long time creditor there Is no
questioning Of the United States coin
in which the debt is to be paid, but
the wide possibilities possessed by an
arbitrary creditor in stipulating just
what coins and in what amounts he
will receive payment are enough al
most to discourage borrowing.
You can't force u mean creditor to
take more than 25 cents worth of
nickels or 25 cents worth OF copper
cents. IL you could get as much as
So worth Of old silver three cent pieces
of another generation you could unload
So worth on him, just as he would
have to take So worth Of the silver five
cent pieces and $5 worth OF the OBJ
solete twenty cent pieces, which made
SO much trouble in the late seventies.
But you can pay out $40 in silver
dimes and silver quarters and silver
half dollars. The trade dollars, OF
which there are a few still coming
into the trasury Of the United States
for redemption, are worth nothing,
while the standard dollar is an un-
liraited legal tender, as is the old dol
la, of our dads" the first Of which
