knowledge of the English language, as
well as Of English cooking and table man

At French restaurant downtown a

for this repetition.
"Oh, certainly" said the waiter, adding
you will pardon me, sir, but do not under

This was still more surprising, and led
to a little questioning on the part Of the
customer, as a result Of which a not I'M

the ancestors of the dynasty now in power
in China.
Mukden is situated in the valley OF the
Hun River, four kilometres from that
stream, on perfectly level and open place.
The city, with its suburbs, is surrounded by
a clay wall fifteen kilometres long The
wall is not solidly built and has fallen In
in many places.
In the centre or inclosed spa ce is the So
called Imperial or Sacred City. 1t is square
in shape and is separated from the rest of
Mukden by high and solidly built stone
wall provided with bulwarks and towers.
One mile south of Mukden is Nan Ta,
or South Dagoba, one Of the four Tibetan
shrines which guard the Sacred City. East
ward, about one mile from this Dagoba,
is the Temple Of Heaven, walled circular
enclosure with a plain altar in the centre
where sacrifices are offered as at Pekin,
but by the Emperor's proxy. The sacred
herd of black cattle and flock OF white sheep
feed on the adjacent grassy plain.
Westward Of the Nan Ia is an enclosure
in which fine herd of the sacred spotted
deer are maintained for the Emperor,
while a herd Of Monaghan mich COWS
are always in readiness for his Majesty
whenever he may visit the sacred palace
In earlier times all the rulers Of the present
dynasty considered it a duty to visit Muk-
den at least once in their lives in order to
pray at the tombs of their forefathers. On
this account the sacred palace was built.
The Emperor, however, has not visited
Mukden in more than 100 years. and for this
reason the castle Is now completely in
ruins. The palace was saved, when the
disbanded soldiers and mob looted much
of the city after the Boxer troubles, by
the opportune arrival and prompt action
of the Russians.
A picture has been painted Of every
Manchu Emperor, and these most sacred
shadows were stored in Mukden palace,
carried off by the Vice-Governor, the muir
derer Of Europeans and natives in Boxer
times, and presented to the Empress-Dow-
ager when on her way back to Pekin.
Whether they are again in Mukden or in
Pekin is uncertain, but within the palace

forming q perfectly square enclosure.
The main approach is over long, stone
paved causeway, which, with the passing
years, has become overgrown with weeds
and trees. Near the marble triumphal
arch it broadens and crosses a ruined
marble bridge, which spans stretch of
artificial water, now choked with weeds
and sedge grass.
Beyond q grand gateway, with yellow
and purple tiled roof, stand on either side
buildings which were once palatial halls.
In broad avenue lined with stone images
Of animals and marble pillars, with carved
clouds encircling them, stand houses in
which the retinue Of the imperor can rest.
There is also there a magnificent square
tower and marble tablet nearly 80 feet
high and standing on the back of a marble
tortoise. On this tablet is an inscription
sacred to the wonderful deeds Of Tai Tsung,
the conqueror Of China, who compelled its
people to wear the queue and tried in vain
to make its women cease deforming their
feet.
Near by is another square enclosure
guarded by high embattlemented brick
walls. Within are the three great halls
where the worship of the spirit OF the de-
parted Tai Tsung is carried on by some
Prince Of blood or proxy of the Emperor.
Tothe north Of this square and surrounded
by a high. circular brick wall is a huge
mound OF earth beneath which slumbers
the mighty Tai Tsung who died in the
seventeenth century and who finally OBJ
tanned for his successors the HEREDITARY
Manchurian imperial dignity and gave to
his dynasty the name OF Datsin. He was
the father Of the first Manchu Emperor of
China.
There is apparently no entrance to the
interior OF this sacred mound. Above
it can be seen the topmost branches of an
ancient elm, still putting out leaves in the
spring. This tree Is said to be the dwell
ing place of one Of the spirits of Tai Tsung.
His ancestors buried their chiefs in hollow
trees. To the rear Of Tai Tsung's grave
is small artificial. horseshoe-shapedm noun
tain to guard it from the evil north.
The other imperial cemetery at Mukden
consists of about five thousand acres of
parklike forest, with steep cliffs to the
south under which winds the Hun River.
