blessing to his hosts. especially If he Is single.
 Desirable men are engaged to dine out the whole winter. They have been known to receive twenty invitation for one evening, Having sent her invita- tions out by hand three or four weeks in advance, the hostess must plan the arrangement of her guests at the din- ner table, sorting out carefully those of the largest size"
 In Washington the guests remain standing in the drawing room until dinner is announced-perhasAsA avoid deciding who may sit down first. The procession to the dining room is like a nursery Noah's ark arrangement, the elephants leading and the ladybugs bringing up the rear.
 After dinner the gentlemen escort the ladies back to the drawing-room. No body goes home until the lady of high est rank, the one whom the host took in to dinner, leaves. Then there is a general exodus.
 The painstaking arrangement of the SUoolo III dSSOludl1Ce WILL OlllCldL IdAh extends even to luncheons for young ladies. The daughter of a congressman or whoever the ranking lady may be, will be placed on the right of her young hostess. When she rises to take leave all the others will follow suit, like so many Mary's little lambs.
 In spite of all these technicalities of etiquette the tone of Washington socie- ty has the cordiality for which the south is famous. Some people are even so lighthearted as to poke a little fun at ponderous officialdom.

A STEEL LINED BLOUSE,
Found by Philadelphia Police in Prot

Found by Philadelphia Police in ProD-
 ing Chinese Shooting.
 Complete verification of statement that members of the warning factions in Chinatown wear coats of mail to protect them from the bullets and knife thrusts of their enemies was found yesterday when the police, in investiga- ting the shooting of Willie Lee York, found an armored coat In the room of Lee Pock, his alleged assailant. The coat is made after the ordinary style Of Chinaman's loose blouse and Is of blue jean or heavy drilling On the body it looks like an ordinary laundry mans working blouse, but when the police picked 1t up the found out differ ently.
 The garment from hem to neck was padded with steel, in the shape of pieces about an inch and a half square. These do ont lap like scales, but are brought together, edge to edge and held with loops of wire. That the metal lined coat might conform to the body the pieces of steel were pounded and made slightly concave. Across the body of the garment, back and front, is apparently a seam, but examination showed that the coat was made of double thickness in the lower ortion, and underneath the apronlike flap in front there was long pocket like a holster.
 The garment weighs all told about fifty pounds, and is about three-fourths of an inch in thickness. It was turned over to Supt. Taylor and will be taken into court as an exhibit In the case of Lee Pock, who was held at a hearing before Magistrate Gallager to await the result of York's injuries,

NO BANK FAILURES IN CHIN

NO BANK. FAILURES IN CHINA.
 Tt is 900 years since the failure of a bank in China" said a bank examiner.
 Over 900 years ago, in the reign of Hi Hung, bank failed. HI Hung had the failure investigated, and to his in- dignation found 1t had been due to reckless and shady conduct on the part of the director and the president.
 HHi Hung at once issued an edict that the next time 8 bank failed the heads of its president and directors were to be cut off. This edict, which has never been revoked, has made China's institutions the safest in the world. ."-New Orleans Times Democrat.

ter and soil. But this was only the
hereditary care of a species-t that knows
the Aridlty of the south. The young
stem had TO solve much graver and
more unexpected problem: II started
from a vertical plane, so that It's top,
instead of rising toward the sky, bent
down over the gulf. II was, therefore,
obliged, Notwithstanding the increasing
weight OF its branches, to correct the
first flight stubbornly to bend Its dis
concerted trunk in the form OF an elbow
close to the rock, and thus, like swim
mer who throws back his head, by
means Of an incessant Will tension, and
contraction, to hold its heavy crown
OF leaves straight up into the sky.
Thenceforward all the preoccupations,
all the energy, all the free and con-
scious genius of the plant had conferred
round that vital knot. The monstrous,
hypertrophied elbow revealed one by
one the successive solicitatudes OF a
kind of thought that knew how TO profit
by the warnings which II received from
the rains and the storms. Year by year.
the leafy dome grew heavier, with no
other care than TO spread itself out in
the light and heat, Nh.le a hidden
canker gnawed deep into the tragic arm
that supported II in space.--Maurlce
Maeterlinck, in Harper's Magazine.
