OF all the harbors in the Far East that

at wharf as is done in this counary.
The ship anchors out in the stream and
all transferring of freight to and from
the shore is done by lighters. Passen-
gers are transferred by tugs or sampans.
There are no wharves such as we have.
The reason for this method is not that
the waters of the harbors are not of
sufficient depth, for most of the har-
bors / visited are the finest IN the
world, but it is claimed that it is so
much cheaper to load or unload by
lighters than to build wharves. fail
to SEE it that way. Another custom
that struck me as nonsensical is the
universal use of "pigeon English" in
conversation between Europeans and
the Chinese. 1t would be just as easy

Baby understands it, no doubt, but it

1AUDE ADAMS IN THE PRETTY
 SISTER OF JOSEF TONIGHT AT
 THE HYPERION.
 The character impersonated by Miss Maude Adams in her new play, 'The Pretty Sister of Jose" in which she will be presented in this city by Charles Frohman at the Hyperion tonight and tomorrow night, is that of an inn perious young Spanish girl, who has foresworn that no man shall possess her heart, that she will always remain sim gle and abide with her devoted brother Jose. When she goes to see her first bull-fight and in the enthusiasm and delight which follows the sight of Se- bastiano's brave vanquishing of a bull, she realizes that she has caught the eye of the Matador, and he has flung his devisa to her, an indication that he has singled her out and desires her ac- quaintance. Firm in her recent resolu- tion she turns upon him and tramples the knot of ribbons beneath her dainty heel and turns scornfully away The buli-fghter learns the name of the pretty girl and having affected the ac- quaintance of her brother Jose, he en- deavors to ingratiate himself with the pretty sister Pepita. The girl in fact has falelr in love with the bull-fighter, but attempts to conceal it. Discouraged

Funeral of w. H. H. Murray in GuiI-

ford.
 Guilford. March 5.-Under the apple tree where he told his friends that the robbins used to perch and sing lullabies to him morning and evening, in the dooryard of the Murray homestead, four miles from this quiet town, William Henry Harrison ('Adirondack' Mur- ray was laid for his final rest this af- ternoon amid a gathering of the towns- folk and neighbors with whom he had been familiar during the years of his re- tirement from public life.
 The funeral services were of the simplest character. They were in ac- cord with the peculiar ideas of MT. Mur- ray, who preferred to live simply, un- ostentatiously, in touch with nature. The services were not held in church, though MT. Murray was clergyman. For years MT. Murray had not attended chuch, and his daughters, the oldest of whom is eighteen years of age, had never been allowed to enter church.
 Rev. F. F. Snow, the family pastor of the Murrays. presided at the simple funeral, which was held in the home- stead and read the committa1 services as the remains were buried in the door yard

and disheartened the Matador an- nounces his determination to leave Madrid. She wants him to come back to her, and when he does return he is carried into her presence, having been gored by the infuriated bull. Following this she makes konwn, while nursing him back to ehalth, that she recipro- cated his affection-thus ending the story in an atmospere of sympathetic and genuine love- The part of the bull fighter is played by Henry Ainley, a young English actor of excellent re- pute, who has the distinction of being Miss Adams leading man. Others in Miss Adams company are G. Harrison Hunter, Edgar Selwyn, Joseph Fran occur, Francis Byrne, George Irving, Charles Pitt, Richard Putnam, Joseph Kaufman, Harry blackstone, Mrs. w. G.

 phere of California in the early ffties accounts in great measure for the enormous success that the play has en- joyed. It is in the period of the rush for gold of the Forty-niners that the
 action of the play is placed. Great care has been taken to have the setting as correct as possible and to this end both photographs and paintings were used in the painting of the scenes and even the smallest property used in the pro- duction being carried by the company. As an instance of the care used, the management desired one of the old Rocky Mountain stage coaches to use
 in the first act of the play. In the east one could not be found that would suit the purpose, so the management | sent vets and finally secured a genu-
 inc Gilmore and Salisbury coach which had actually been in use over a noun tain run. The company is made up en-
 tirely of actors of repute and is headed
 by Nellie McHenry, who in her own line | of work, is second to no one in this
