A BROKEN ING, .,,ENT.
The Romance That Kept Carries VII
Tiers Single All His life.


Charles Villiers. long the father Of
the house of commons" never mar
ried, but he was the hero of ro-
nance which Is described in the
"Reminiscences and Correspondence of
Nine. Olga Norikoff" as having lasted
all his life.
Villiers was once on the eve Of mar
rying very rich spinster. The lady.
however. was imprudent enough one
day to say to her fiance that she knew
very well he only wanted to marry
her money and not herself.
Villiers' aristocratic dignity mani
tested ITSELF He took his hat, bowed
to the lady and said that after that
remark there could be no more ques-
ton Of marriage between them. or
he went.
Strangely enough. the deserted spin
ster spent the next thirty years in try
ing In vain to see him to make up.
He never came near her or gave her
a chance Of coming near him. "And
do you know" remarked Lady Gilbert.
who told me the story, "she still loves
him and cherishes his memory"
'Oh. that is charming! Quite a ro-
mancew l exclaimed. Tell the lady
to lunch with me tomorrow" We were
acquainted. "Charles Villiers is com.
ing"
Lady Gilbert delivered my message.
The two old people met at my hotel.
after which the lady humbiy asked
Charles Villiers to call on her. He ac-
cepted the invitation. When we were
alone together she said: do you
know. Nine Norikoff. he is not In the
least altered after all these years He
is exactly the same in looks and man
ners"
OF that. Of course. could have no
opinion. But surely thirty years be-
fore the old Charles Villiers was nei-
Their half bent nor half blind How
ever. the old time friendship was re-
newed and lasted until the lady's
death few years later
She left him the greatest part Of her
very great fortune. Charles Villiers
became very rich in money. but I'M
fortunately he was then very rich I'm
years also.

Of them in Java. a large number
in Borneo, and millions in the Philip
pine islands The natives here are bet
ter locking than the Moros, but they
have the same brown skin. the same
sturdy form and staggering ways. They
are clean limbed, well made and by no
means bad looking.
Down here at the straits they dress in
a bag like skirt known as the sarong,
above which is a jacket which falls TO
their hips. The sarong reaches from the
waist to the calf. it is a gay figured
calico bag. often of plaid, which is open
at both top and bottom, and is of the
same width throughout When the Ma
lay puts on his clothes he steps into his
bag, raises its top to his. waist and by
twist of the wrist fasteIis 1t there in
knot Under the bag he may wear calico
drawers, or if poor he may be naked.
The rich wear pantaloons of bright col
ors or white duck. but the sarOng is al
ways over the rest of their clothing 1t
seems to be the badge of the race, as
are also the handkerchief turban and
sandals or slippers
Here at the Straits of Malacca the
Malays have been contaminated by for
eigners. The Europeans have taught
them to drink and through the Chinese
they have become opium smokers Tney
are not SO good consequently as the peo-
pie of the wilds. They are naturally lazy
and have become the loafers of this part
OF the world Some of them act as coach
men for the rich Chinese or Europeans
Others do light work about the towns,
and few live in villages scattered over
the islands, labOring only enough to
keep soul and body together. Now and
then one meets a rich Malay from the
so1 n-~r MI
haps of a sultan. but as a rule the
Malays of the straits are shiftless and
poor and they grow worse off every
year.

and puffs out the lips and makes them
crack. The chewing is said TO take away
hunger and fatigue and the habit once
acquired is seldom broken. L see old
women pounding the nuts to a powder,
that they may masticate them between
their tOOthless gums. The better classes
have betel spittOOns and betel boxes for
the lime leaves and nuts. Some high
officials have their chewing maids
girls who carry about the betel sets, and
offer the delicious materials TO them
from time to time, presenting the spit

These MaIays. like our Moros. are Mo-
hammedans. They study the Korean,
keep Ramazan, and if they can afford
it have several wives The girls are es-
pecially fine looking. They have light
brown-skins, long black hair and beauti-
full eyes. Their noses are inclined to be
flat, but their teeth are like pearls
where they are not betel chewers, and
they have high foreheads and good

hands and small feet with square toes

being exploited, mines opened, and the
country prospected for tin, silver and
gold. From one state alone as much as
$4,000, 600 worth OF tin has been taken,
and in all sometimes like $4,000 ounces
of gold are mined every year. In addi-

. INGAPORE, India, Feb. 2S.-I want
10 tell you OF the new movements
among the Malays. A generation
ago this peninsula was savage and the
country a jungle. It had neither roads
nor railroads, there were no resting
places for travellers and the wilderness
was inhabited chiefly by wild beasts
and wild men, Today the English have
taken hold Of it and are making II bios
som like all irrigated lands Of our new
west They have brought order out of
chaos, and are building roads and rail-
roads, establishing schools and laying
out towns. In the Federated Malay states.
which contain something like a million
inhabitants, more than five hundred miles
Of railways have been built and more
than three thousand miles of cart roads
and bride paths. There are hotels at
the capitals and outside them new gov
ernmeuf rest houses, where travellers can
stay overnight. Thirty-five years ago the
people of the country had never seen
a postage stamp Today the postoffices
are handling more than ten million
pieces Of mail every year, and the post
office savings banks have deposits run
ming into the hundreds of thousands Of
dollars.
Laws, Courts and Schools.
The population Is rapidly increasing.
1t has more than doubled since the Eng
lish took hold. and it is being trans
formed from savagery TO civilization.
The laws have been reorganiZed and
courts have been established. There is
II good police force, and the British gov
eminent has a battalion of Sikhs, known

The Federated States.

If one would see the race at its best,
he should go TO the peninsula and
travel through the British states There
are other provinces belonging TO Siam
and Johore where the progress is by
no means so great, but in the Fed
Grated states he will find towns which
have sprung up in the jungle and pub
lie buildings equal TO those of Japan
and India
But first let me tell you what these
states are. If you VIII take your map
of Asia and look at the Malay PENN
sula. you viii see that ii begins al
most on the equator and runs thou
sand miles or so northward, the upper
part belonging TO Siam About four or
five hundred miles from the straits
these British possessions begin At the
top is Perak, not as big as New Jersey,
and further down the coast Selangor
and Negri Sombilan. which combined
are of about the same size as Perak,
while east of them lies the big prov
ince of Pahang, which is almost as
large as Massachusetts and New Jer-
sey combined. The four states alto
gether have more than $4,000 square
miles, or about 1000 more than West
Virginia

The SuItans.

The SuItans-
Each state is ruled by q native sui
tan with q British official as resident
adviser The sultan is merely a pup
pet and the Britisher pulls the string
Under. the sultan are numerous native
officials, the most of whom have Eng
lish agents TO help them. the whole gov
eminent being similar to what the
Dutch have in Java The common
people think they are ruled by Ma
lays, but the better classes know that
the British are the real power be-
hind every office and that John Bull is
king.
These sultans live in great state.
Their uniforms are decorated with gold
leaf They have gold-hilted swords.
and when they go about they have SER
wants who carry gorgeous umbrellas
TO shield them from the sun. They
have as retainers men with spears and
swords, and the common people bow
down to the ground in their honor.
Each sultan has his palace and a Ger
tain amount Of money allotted to him
by the British. The taxes are levied
and collected under the direction of
the British, and the revenues are ex-
pended as they prescribe.
In huaia Lumpur.
The chief city of these states is in
Selangor. It is Kuala Lumpur. and it
has a population of about 900 people
1t is there that the head offices of
the British government are. although
the states are ruled by the governor
of Singapore. Kuala Lumpur may be
reached by steamers from Singapore
and by rail from the coast 1t lies
some distance inland and has railroads
connecting it with the other states.
The town has ma gnificent government
offices. several clubhouses, a hotel and
numerous stores. 1t is in a rich tin
mining district, and it has large pop
ulatiOn Of Chinese, who are either in
terested in or work in the mines.
Outside the city plantations Of cof-
fee, pepper and cocoa have been start
ed, and the state has recently been
granted lands on special terms for the
planting Of sage, pepper, gambler and
rubber.
