CHINA'S AWAKENING.
New Phase Shown by Great Athletic
Meet.

Special Cabiegram TO The Star.
CANTON. March ia new phase of
Chinas awakening was shown a few days
ago In the first great athletic meeting in
this country. Forty-seven schools. or about
5000 students competed In various kinds OF
races and sports. The great event took
place In the suburbs OF this place and
caused much excitement
A booth on the field was devoted 10 the
use OF the hospital corps. which was COM
posed OF seventeen young Chinese doctors.

arms. This corps had not a little work 10
do in reviving boys who were overcome by
tho unwonted exertions OF the contests.
The unusual number OF such cases showed
clearly enough the Chinese boys have not
been used to such violent games
The runners from one school were strIn-
ped TO thin shirts, short running breeches
and rubber-soled shoes, and their hardened
muscles showed vigorous training. There
were bugies. a drum corps ana a military
band. The latter announced the beginnfng
OF each event by playing either 30 Tell
Aunt Nancy or other airs equally lively
1t was remarked that the entire scene
showed marked contrast to the long-ftnger
nailed lsnguid-aired students Of a genera

ON THE UPPER NILE.
Feeling Over Establishment Of Bel
gian Post


Special Cabegram to The Star.
ALEXANDRIA. March 10. - There has
been considerable feeling with respect to
the establishment of Belgian post in ter
ritory on the upper Nile. Just the nature
of the post appears to have been subject
in dispute. 1t is an undoubted fact that
Congolese native troops appeared at Tnyolo
in 1904. and that a mission OF some kind,
ostensibly scientific, has occupied the post
ever since.
The Egyptian government did not vel
come this prolonged sojourn. particularly
as the members of the mission ana the
natives failed to agree together. As
duce the departure of the visitors it was
resolved about three months ago to stop
the Belgian transport and post service on
the Nile. but up to the present the Con-
goiese mission has apparently procured suf-
ficient supplies from Its Congo base to
Withstand the Inconvenience invoiged
The British and Egyptian Royernmants
are on good terms with the Belgian govern
nient, and there seems To Ire every Hope
that the mission will shortly be Withdrawn
from territory within the sphere OF British
and Egyptian jurisdiction withou. imrosing
the necessity Of resorting 20 stronger
measures than those already il operation.
1t Is to be presumed that the cessation of
the transport and post services Is being
continued by the Soudan administration by
way OF reprfsal. The situation is how
ever, complicated in many ways and Il
Is difficult to even venture a guess as to
the final outcome.

EGYPTIAN EXPLORATION.
Report Giving Insight Into Latest
Discoveries.

Special Cabiegram to The Star.
CAIRO, March I'm. E. Naville and
Mr. c. T. Currelly have just made a Joint
report, interesting because 1t gives an in
sight into the latest discoveries made by the
representatives of the Egypt exploration
fund. saying:
ION the north side of a court, over the
Enclosure of the old temple. we have just
found remains OF a shrine of the eighteenth
dynasty OF the great king. Thothmes III
This building, made of big blocks of sand
stone. did not cover very large area. A
first encouragement was fine statue OF a
scribe who lived at the end of the nine
seenth dynasty. AS this statue was quite
perfect 1t seemed to us that it could not
be alone. In this respect our hopes were de-
ceived; we found no other statues; but sud-
denly the removal of a few stones revealed
to US e. chapel covered with sculptures, the
colors of which are absolutely fresh. 1t Is
about ten feet long and five feet wide. The
roof is vaulted, painted In blue with yellow
stars.
This chapel is dedicated to Hathor The
goddess has not left her sanctuary. In the,
chapel Is a beautiful cow OF life size. In
painted limestone, reddish brown, with
black spots The head. horns and tanks
have evidently been overlaid with gold. The
neck is adorned with papyrus stems and
flowers, as II she were coming out OF the
water. She Is sucking a little boy. who
Is again represented as grown man under
her neck The cartouche behind the head
Is that of Amenophis II. the son OF Tho
Times III. whose sculptures cover the
walls This Is the first time that a god
dess has been found undisturbed In her
sanctuary. Besides, no COW has ever been
found of suci, size and superb workman
ship. The modelling OF the animal is ex-
uuisite. and the distinctive characteristics OF
the Egyptian cattle OF the present day are
reproduced.

does not show the truth. 1t seems to admit
that those who attend Sunday schools are
resolving proper religious instruction but
every one knows that this cannot be
granted
In conclusion Mr.. Gasquet says:
I may add that was assured two years
ago that the proportion of those trained in
state schools who go to any place Of wor-
ship or to any Sunday school has fallen
considerably since 1898 | have said moth
Ing about the opinions of Catholics because
the very existence of their own schools,
built and supported entirely by themselves,
Wnlle stiH called upon to pay their rates
for the state secular schools is proof of
their intense belief in the necessity of train
ing the minds OF children during school In
the principles OF their faith and in the
moral obligations of their religion"
The statements OF the Abbot Gasauet
made from the Athenaeum Club have re-
ceived striking confirmation from Rev.
Charles W. Stubs of the Deanery, Ely.
He says:
During three months visit to America
in the winter Of 1860 I took every oppor-
tunity which fell to of inspecting the
common schools, both in New York and
elsewhere. From fairly large correspond
ence with American friends l select an ex-
