But One woman's College in Mexico. William E. Curtis. in Chicago Record
 

There is but one college for the high er education of women in Mexico. It was founded in a small way about thir- ty years ago by the Methodist mis- sionaries and has been growing eve~ since. until last year 1t removed into a handsome stone building. costing $I70,000. It is called the Sarah l.. Keen College having been named In honor of a worthy lady who for forty-thrce years was corresponding secretary or the woman's Board of Missions of tho Methodist Church for this field and died only recently. The money for the new building came chiefly from the increase in value of the site of the ola building in the city. which was pur- chased for $3S,000 In 1885. The balance was made up by friends. Laura Tenn pie, an alumna ef Allegheny College. Meadville, is president and Is assisted by a faculty of four Americans and six native professors. There are 1eO students, about half of them boarders. and all of them are taking regular college course such as Is required by the higher institutions for women In inc United States. and the first Of the kind that was ever offered to women In Mexico.

BANIsHrNc CHINESE.

The mistreatment or maitreatment or Chinese In this country has become al- most proverbial The highest classes of that country's citizens receive little more consideration as immigrants or visitors than the lowest. Those who are allowed to become residents are looked on as little better than beasts but the following which we find in The Kansas City Journal. is hardly credf- ble:
 The edict has gone forth that China town is to be done away with and the former residents of that district are to and dismal locality about i've miles from the city. Here for a number of years there have been extensive slaugh- ter houses and no one wanted 10 i've that it is good enough for the Chinese, and the celestials will be expected to pack up what remains or their belong ings and locate on the mud of the cisco will find it exceedingly dimcult to persuade the Chinese to abandon the city. Many of them own lots at the old site, and most of them are desirable tenants who pay high rates promptly and demand little. The old Chinatown was as clean as any similar section Of Sdn FTdNciAcO, anu dUout aA ttiG fiCt there was that whicn was made to or der for exhibition purposes. It Is hard to conceive how San Francisco Is to banish the thousands of Chinese who lived peaceably and profitabiy in the several blocks on the eastern slope of Mob and Russian hiils
 We freely confess our inability to see the justice or practicab.lity of such determination on the part of the au- thorities. The Chinatown of San Fran cisco has become a synonym of all tEat is foul and disreputable. put was it not so because the authorities suffer- ed 1t? If they have been allowed to live in filthy and disease-breeding dens It would seem plain that the civic as we'll as the health authorities should bear the, blame, for they were either Ignorant or indifferent and neither is creditable to them.
 But aside from that, and admitting that conditions there have been much exaggerated, we cannot see how they are to be driven out of the city. Has California or San Francisco any law under which the real estate belonging to DOHd uue CitiIeus ChH pc Sohhsc"too or taken possession of and the owners forced to seek homes elsewhae? And those who are not property owners, but who pay rent and conduct them selves properly-what of them? By what right can they be expatriated. at least as long as they are quiet and law-abiding citizens? The civic gov ernment of San Francisco can estab- lish rules and regulations for build ings. and can prevent or punish any thing that may be a menace to health and good order. but the city will have delicate and difficult task when it sets out to banish any class of citl- zens, and will find that even the Chi nese have some rights.
