4 Common Method Of Transportation
In China.


Probably more freight and more
passengers are transported In China
BY the wheeIbarrow than by any other
Mnd method" said a HongkOng man
Who is Interested in the shipping trade
h the far east.
The wheelbarrow used in China diff
Eers from that used in America 10 the
fact that the wheel Is set in the center
and thus supports practically the en-
tire load, while the handles are sup.
ported in part by a strap or rope over
aTle shoulders Of the man who operates
IT
1As a result the cody in China will
transport nearly half a ton on his
wheel. Wheelbarrows are much used
IN the country. where the roads are but
little developed. and have heard that
passengers sometimes make the entire
"trip from Shanghai to Pekin, a dis.
tance Of 800 miles, by barrow.
"A two passenger barrow will make
GDouf twenty miles q day, ana the

20 cents day or an average Of about
Aalf a cent mile for each passenger

pion OF New England. began last night
at Mechanics Hall. Fayette street. oppo-

was at a premium. Two hundred points

The table was about the fastest ever. 1t
was brought from New York for the
match. The balls were also new. Neither
man made a bfg run, klein's best being
p. and Longs -.
Though Klein has a margin of .3 to
start in tonight's second series OF 200 he
has by no means won his match: a few
frames or big run such as either man
is capable of making will quickly put
different complexion on the score. Long
was in no way discouraged. and expressed
himself at the end of the nights play as
confident that he will prove to be the
first man to score the requisite 800 points
They play 200 tonight and the final 200
Of the 600 tomorrow night
Both men played slowly. and they were
very deliberate in the early part of last
nights game. They had just got accus-
toned to the fast table in the latter part
OF their session.
Klein finished especially strong. making
his highest run in the last two frames.
The table is j by 10 feet and the pockets
but 4la inches on the corners and AZ. on
