In methods, customs and sentiment
Hongkong is thoroughly English, al
though there are enough resident Ger
mans to support very fine club.
Americans are greatly in the minor
ity in Hongkong and incline to keep
to themselves for many reasons.
To American people who contem-
plate visit to the far east a word of
warning in regard to Hongkong will
not be amiss, for, while it may not
Lslp matters, they would at least in
some measure be prepared for the
hold-up they will encounter there.
In the first place, no more unwel-
come visitor can go to Hongkong than
IN American, and he is looked upon as
fair game.
The Hongkong hotei is without ex-
ception the worst in the east and
charges the most exorbitant prices
The only thing lacking in the make
up of these prices is black mask and
pistol.
The manager of the hotel, recently
q steward on one of the P. & o. steam
ers, acknowledges that the hotel was

We were so fortunate RS to see
something Of the minor social life Of
the Chinese through the courtesy of
Mr.. Thomas McAran of Hongkong.
who introduced me to Mr. Wei Yuk,
prominent and wealthy banker and one
of the two Chinese members of the
English board of governors of Hong
kong. Mr.. McAran very kindly took
me to call on the banker, and that
engraved invitation from Mr.. and
Mrs. Wei Yuk requesting the pleasure
of Mr.. and Mrs. M. P. WIS company
at dinner the next evening. OF course
we accepted, as it was rare oppor-
tunity to see the real thing in Chinese
and 1 look upon it as one of the most
interesting episodes have the pleas
ure of remembering. OF course we
put on our best bib and tucker, and
were carried in chairs on coolies
shoulders up the steep Peak-the
fashionable residential part of the
city-to Mr.. Wei Yuk's handsome
marble residence Ito say palace would
be no misnomer) which is called Brae-
side. The explanation for this name
is that Mr.. Wei Yuk learned his Eng
lish (Which he speaks exquisitely) in
Edinburgh, at whose university he was
graduated, being the first Chinese
child ever sent out of China to be edu-
Gated. His house was very English
in it's appointments, and there were
truly Chinese apartments, but we saw
only the drawing room and dining
room, which were very English in
deed. There were present, beside the
host and hostess, their two daughters,
two sons, a niece, Mrs. Wei Yuk's
brother and brother-in-law, and few
English and Americans. Mrs. Wei
Yuk spoke no English, but was very
gracious and charming and entirely
without the reserve I expected to find
in native Chinese. Mr.. McAran told
me she was an example of the very
highest type of Chinese lady. She
was a large woman, tall and stout, and
her feet, about four inches long and
two wide, were encased in little satin
shoes of color that ladies would call
cerise, and embroidered and sewn
with seed pearls. 1 will endeavor to
make my description of the rest of her
costume intelligible-to my lady read
ers, that is:
She wore as principal garment a
long jacket of plum-colored brocade,
beautifully embroidered about the
edges, over wide trousers of black
satin with an embroidered blue band
at the hem. Her jacket was fastened
with buttons of carved pink coral
that would have made an American
girl jump out of her shoes to possess

Her headdress was the usual black
satin cap worn by Chinese married
women of every class, Marie Stuart in
shape, without crown, just band,
curving to fit the head, her beautiful
hair neatly coiled round and round.
This cap is generally ornamented with
jade and pearls. Our hostess had the
usual ornaments. but beautifully
carved and set with whole pearls. Be-
side these there was pinned in front a
diamond sunburst much bigger than
the lady's little fist, and atop of the
rising sun an enormous emerald
larger than nickel, surrounded by
diamonds. Her earrings were dia-
mond solitaries as big as marrowfat
peas, with long pendants of jade. Her
hands were covered with rings-cir-
Giles of pearls and diamonds. In short,
the lady was what one might call an
Oriental f1ashlight.
Her married daughter and little
daughter II years old were both in
pink brocade, with gorgeous pearl
ornaments and earrings.
Her niece was in white brocade,
with ornaments Of diamonds and jade.
Her brother-in-law is one of the few
millionaires in China, and made his
fortune in flour. Her brother, very
much Europeanized Chinaman, being
graduate of Oxford, had just re-
turned from England, where he had
been since a child. He was truly
British-clothes, accent, and all; even
his cue cut off, He carried on con-
versation between us and our hostess,
interpreting for the trio.
The table was beautifully decorated.
Instead of center piece, there were
two dozen or more small silver vases
scattered over the table, filed with
flowers. The service was certainly all
that could be desired, Chinese serv-
ant in blue linen gown standing be-
hind every chair.
The dinner was modified Chinese,
and very good; with very few excep-
lions the dishes were most palatable
to western taste, and several, such as
roast beef and fruit salad, were dis
tinctly European.
1t was a novel and interesting af-
fair and the glimpse at Chinese family
life, an opportunity much appreciated
by us.
