Our officials and merchants are begin

whole country. China is now passing
through a great crisis In her history.

hitting a portion OF the Boxer indem-
nifty China is able now to send 100
students to this country each year for
the first four years and fifty thereaft-

country cannot but give a good &C

do their part in guiding the affairs of
their country in the path of progress

briefly the military history of China, a
history that dates from the Chiro dy-

up the reorga MIA ton of the army that
is now in progress.
"China again feels the need of put

in view the late Emperor Kwang Hsu
ordered the reorganization of the war
Office. to which are especially attached
the general staff of the army and the
bureau of military training. At the
same time IL was decided to organize
an army of thtrty-stx divisions. and
this work was to be completed in 1912.
Now the Chinese army consists Of
eighteen divisions. each composed of
two brigades of infantry. a regiment of
cavalry and a corps of artillery. each
corps with more than fifty guns;
corps of engineers and a commissary
department. In order to increase the
efficiency of the service the prince re-
gent thought best last year TO detach
the general staff from the war Office
and appoint Prince Tsai as controller

purpose of his imperial highDess TO

Sent to America for Education,

For the first time during bis recent
visit to America his imperial high
ness Prince Tsai Tao of China deliv.
cred a speech at the twelfth annual
dinner Of the American Asiatic asso-
citation given in his honor at Delmon-
ico's In New York the other night. In
the course of his speech Prince Tsai
said that the thirst for foreign knowl-
edge is general throughout the Chinese
empire and at the present moment
the "old order of things is fast giving
place TO the new" The speech was in
Chinese. for the prince does not speak
English. but later Lord Ii, son of the
late Ii Hung Chang. translated IL into
English for the benefit of the occi-
dental guests. and it was cheered en-
Enthusiastically. This is what Prince
Tsai said. as translated by Lord Ii:
81 thank you for the honor you have
done me this evening. l am glad to
have this opportunity to meet the MEM
bers of this association, for ! know
well that you are friends of China,
men who possess an intimate knowl-
edge of Chinese affairs. taking a lively
interest in China's welfare and prog
ress and sympathizing with our hopes
and aspirations.
China Passing Through Great Crisis.
The work of this American Asiatic
association has rendered China better
understood by Americans and America
better understood by Chinese. One of
the chief objects OF my present mis-
sion is to promote this good, under
standing. Through the American Ash
attic association many a public man
from the east has been brought into
contact with prominent meR Of the
west. There is no surer means Of
drawing east and west together into
friendly and close relations.
ut is an encouraging sign Of the
times that Americans are taking a
much greater interest in what is going
on in China than they did little while
ago The free interchange of views
on questions of public interest cannot
but be advantageous to both countries.
On the other hand. we also wish to
