The point of etiquette demands that thi@ tea shall not be touched until the gues js teady to depart, in case the inter view has been pleasant one, Ill whic'' case the caller is supposed to take If and drink his tea at parting, aud af this signal all the others do likewise. However, should 1t so happen that the Chinaman is not pleased with his call, CT and Is in any way annoyed by him the merchant takes up the tea and be- gins to drink at once, which act is q direct and decided hint that the in terview is ended and has not been to the pleasure of the merchant.

 Eliza beth's death was hastened by , remorse that she had ordered the eX~

AMERICAN PORTUGUESE HELD.
Men Who Sail for Celebration May
Not Come Back.

Providence, r. I, June 21.-Only
one hundred of the 265 Portuguese
who sailed from Providence on May 10
on the steamship Madonna to cele-
brate the feast of Santa Cristc on the
Island of st. Michael, the Azores, re-
turned home with the party this week.
The remainder of the pilgrims are be-
ing detained on st. Michael because
the governor of the district of Porta
Del Gada decided that they had left
Portugal without having done their re
quired military service. None of the
65 is a citizen of the United States,
although all have lived for several
years in New England towns and many
have wives and families here
The returning pilgrims say that
when the party landed at Porta Del
Gada they were allowe1 to march to
the church and begin their celebration
of the feast, but as soon as they left
the church they were put in jail and
examined at length by the military au-
thorities. All those who hao not be-
come citizens of the United States
were detained when the others sailed.
Those who returned will app-al to the
president of the republic of Portugal
to release the pilgrims.
