CHINESE BANKER

is MysteriousIy Assassinat-

Correspondence Of Associated Press.)
SHANGHAI, Feb. 24-Chang SEE
shcn, manager OF the Shanghai branch
Of the Bank OF Communications. was
mysteriously assassinated recently.
The bank with which he was con-
neCted. is largely under the direction
Of LANG Shih-yi, president Yuan Shi-
kai's right hand man, and it has been
suggested that the crime was COM
mitted by revolutionists as a protest
against the monarchical movement.
This theory has not been supported.
however, so far. The murdered man.
agcr was not actively engaged in poll
tics and had never held any Office. 1t
has been charged by some Of the rev.
olutionists, however. that he constant
ly supplied information to Liang Shin
VI concerning the movements Of the
enemies of the Yuan Shi-kai govern
ment, and was the financial agent who
directed efforts against the protesting
progressives in Shanghai. Chang SEE
shen's family denies these allegations
emphatically, and are at loss to find
a motive for the crime.

Bachelors Confirmed
In Their Selfishness

ditions have arrived. in the larger
cities at all events. which offer to the
single man facilities of comfort and
other advantages that formerly were
not accessible to him. Most notable
in this line is the bachelor apart
ment.
For S25 month he can rent an
unfurnished room and bath in deslr-
able neighborhood. putting in his own
furniture at small expense, and ar
ranging with one OF the house boys
to keep his living quarters in good
order.
What He Gets for $50.
That is the cheapest plan But il
he can afford to pay $50 month he
can get for that price furnished sit
ting room, bedroom and bath. The
house provides everything, taking care
Of him as IL the establishment be-
longed to him. Included in the rent
is valet service. His clothes are
pressed. his shoes are backed. his
laundry is regularly collected and de
livered. Messages for him are received
at the office; likewise packages, which
il delivered c. o. D. are paid for by
the house. lie can have checks cashed
at the desk.
He may prefer a bachelor apart
ment with kitchenet, In which to
keep house on small scale. 1t is
more like a real home and the rent
need not exceed $50 month A cap
able manservant, employed by HIM
self, attends to all his wants, acting
as valet, cooking his meals, running
his errands and performing the duty
Of chauffeur II he keeps motor car.
In such case he will be likely to
breakfast at home, get his lunches
at his club or downtown and dine in
his apartment when not invited out.
He can even entertain in a small and
agreeable way, giving card parties
and little dinners, with suitable chap
eronage for the young ladies' he may
invite.
Club Gives Additional Comforts.
But whatever the method Of living
be may adopt. the bachelor Of moder-
ate income obtains such comfort as
would have been beyond the reach Of
man similarly situated twenty years
ago. Unless he is really very poor
in which case he could not afford to

a small profit on the bar, and very
moderate charge is made for the use
of billiard tables. In some the attrac-
lions of a very high class hotel are
offered at a minor fraction Of the
price. There are even luxurious baths
as well as other conveniences, includ-
ing card rooms and a library, in
which, together with a choice collec-
ton of books, the current newspapers
and latest magazines are available for
perusal. Not least important is the
automatic excellence of the service, in
connection with which tipping is alb
solutely eliminated.
With all the advantages herein re-
cited at his disposal, is it in the least
surprising that the bachelor of today
should so commonly elect to remain
in state OF single blessedness?
Selfish but Practicable,
In all material ways he is at least
as comfortable as il he were married,
and is safe from the annoyances in
eyltably incidental to ordinary home

marry. anyway, the boarding house
(Crstwhile the customary refuge OF
the single male OF small means) does
not threaten him as an alternative to
matrimony.
To furnish additional comforts, at
least fairly initiative OF those OF a
home and in some respects altogether
superior to the latter, the bachelor
has his club.
The club OF today is more highly
developed institution than formerly it
was. 1t is, in effect, communal pal
ace, offering all the domestic luxu'
ries that are obtainable in the resi-
dcnce OF multi-millionaire, with very
little to pay. A good club, indeed, Is
the cheapest thing in the world rela-
lively to what it affords.
Advantages OF the Modern Club.
The ordinary dues yearly subscrip-
tions) of a properly managed club
pay for the upkeep Of the establish
ment, including wages Of servants
and other expenses. Supplies Of all
sorts. including meals, cigars and
drinkables. are sold to members at
cost. There Is usually
