TARTARS STARvE
RATHER Than WORK
CATHOLIC MISSIONARY TELLS
INTERESTING STORY OF
CONVERTING CHINESE.

New York, June 30.-Mgr. Modest
Everaerts, bishop of Roman Catho-
lie diocese in China, Is starting here
a quest for teachers and supplies for
industrial schools which he believes
to be the hope of the empire. He will
journey from here by easy stages to
San Francisco.
AS one of the eleven Franciscan
bishops in China, he is titular head
of a diocese in the central part OF the
empire, having jurisdiction over LEI
900 Roman Catholics among popu-
lation of 100000.
The Chinese hatred of the Tartars
has had such full swing since the re-
cent revolution that Bishop Ever
aerts, beloved as he is, dares no
longer wear his Tartar robes. He
tells of the conversion of a whole
city of Tartars and how the good
members of the aristocratic congre-
CATION came to him bringing their
idols in clothes baskets to have their
heads knocked off.
The Tartars have SO long been
accustomed to the leisure Of the
aristocracy that they won't work, ac-
cording to the bishop, and since the
revolution they have been 80 gener-
ally ostracized by the Chinese that
they are now starving. In the indus
trial schools the bishop sees hope OF
some day making them self sup
porting. ..... -.

the warlike rattle Of pots and pans in
score of mess tents. i
Veterans who sat about camp fires
until late at night were up long before
the sun climbed over the hills of the
Blue Ridge. Before the electric lights
of this modern camp were turned out
to make way for the sun, the veterans
were singing the songs of war times
and the wide street Of the tented city
echoes with the ''ki-yi' Of the Johnny
Reb' and the hoarse yell of his Yank
brother from the north.
Many Expected During Day.
The regular army men in charge Of
the camp expected $4,000 veterans to
come into Gettysburg today and by to-
night they will be prepared to tent and
mess the more than 10000 men without
hitch or delay There was no set pro-
gram today and the veterans were left
free to look up old friends and old
enemies, swap stories of '63 and enjoy
themselves in any way they saw flt.

and eggs and coffee, fruit Of the sea-
son." fresh bread and butter, were dis
