be mere formality. Roosevelt said
that such an idea was preposterous
and an insult both TO him and to Mr..
Loeb.
Mr.. Roosevelt said he was aware
that many complaints had been made
against the New York port OF the al

himself whether the complaints were

Mixtures of Christian and Pagan.

1t was odd funeral service. A more
curious mixture Of Christian and pagan
things is rarely seen. and yet to Il per
son not seeking for the odd things It
seemed perhaps like A very poor dull
affair-this burial Of an unknown China
man. First there were Sunday school
teachers from the First Baptist Church
who have worked many years among the
Chinese men and boys of the quarter
here. And Moy Joe's own teacher was
there with a wreath of roses to lay
upon the coffin, and later to be placed
upon the grave.
\ quartet of these teachers sang some
of the hymns of the church before Rev.
DIR. McMasters appeared. While they
were singing. the unbelieving Cinnamon
from the tea stores and merchandise COM
panies along the block ran in and out
whispering to one another and paying
no attention at all as far as outward
appearance go the body of Moy Joe.
The minister came, book in hand, and
started the set form OF the burial service
He had known Moy Joe, for the man
had fluttered back and forth, hesitating
between his own gods and DR.. McMas-
ters God for many months before he
finally decided to shave off his queue and
become Christian. So he could speak
about Moy Joe with some feelng-and
he did.

Moy Joe, who was born in Canton, chi

in Congressional cemetery yesterday. with

knew him before he came to America.
1t is not often that a Chinaman dies
and is buried here in Washington. and
the people who pushed their way into
the chapel of the undertaking firm at
325 Pennsylvania avenue yesterday aft
ernoon were mainly of the curiosity seek
ing sort. There were many women, a
very few Cinnamon. and a scattering of
the men that YOU can find around the
city doing nothing at all but looking for
a chance TO pass the time away pleas
antly.
There was a buzz of conversation, and
occasionally one of the Cinnamon would
get up and walk up or down the aisle.
Moy Joe lay in a. coffin of American make
There was nothing Chinese or oriental
about it. with the single exception of
a certain bunch Of white roses. A shrink
ing, tiny Chinaman. hatless and embar-
raised, battered quickly up the middle
aisle of the chapel Just before a quartet
from the First Baptist Church began to
sing. The little Chinanan had a bunch
of white roses in his hand. and attached
to them was rough bit of paper daubed
with Odd-lOoking Chinese characters
The man shyly placed them on the cot
fin. and then, taking hasty look at the
face of Moy Joe, glanced around with

listened to him with apparent unconcern.
A young man standing up near the
back of the chapel asked gray old

handed up to the driver a basket in which
were tea and rice. a bottle of Canton rice
wine of a kind rare that 1t is scarce
" ever seen in America, and sweet
meats.
This was the old mans tribute. 1t was
like the things they had put on the grave
OF Moy Joe's father and his mother and
their parents and grandparents in China
for countless generations back. The old
man did not understand the f1owers-nor
the Twenty-third Psam-but he knew
the ways of his kind, and when they
