CHINESE ARMY A Menace
Soldiers Love Their Job and II They
Are Not Paid They
Loot.

Picking, China.-China's toughest
problem now is how to disband the
army raised during the revolution.
The government. hard-pressed for
money, will have to raise at least $780,
100000 to pay off the 100000 men I'M
der arms; and unpaid soldiers are al
ways menace in China.
Coolies regard military service as
a very desirable occupation. Once
enlisted it is difficult to persuade them
to retire. They riot and become ex-
tremely troublesome II an attempt be
made to disband them without liberal
payment. The commanding officers
are frequently as mercenary as the
soldiers. When the government fails
to give its soldiers what they regard
as adequate pay, the troops frequent
ly become bandits and loot.
Each province has its own military
governor and a distinct military Or
ganizatiOn, presumably under control
Of the Picking authorities, but actu-
ally Independent in most cases. Con-
sequently the Peking government is
forced to deal very automatically
with the military organizations In
the provinces. particularly In the re-
mote provinces.

mathematics are studying Latin be-
cause their training has been too spe-
cialized. Catholic sisters are taking
the courses to improve their teaching.

1t all came about when Welby was

a bear cub, but on the way to the
store the animal crawled out for a
view of the landscape. and climbed to
the seat beside Welby.
When wagon and bear arrived at
the animal store Welby was on the
ground leading the horse and the bear
was on the drivers seat.

HUNTER SAW SIXTEEN BEARS
Smith Killed and Got the Hides Of
Four of Them in Washing
ton Wilds.

Wenatchee, Wash.-The best bear
story Of the season comes from Mer-
rift. and III. B. Smith is the hero.
Smith one day the other week shot
a bear 200 yards off, wounding it in a
foreleg. The wounded animal came
dashing down toward him and when
within 100 feet. was brought down
with an accurately aimed shot through
the heart.
Hardly had Smith fired the second
shot. according to the story, when a
second black one poked its head over a
log nearby. One shot finished 1t. Then
bears began to jump all around. Smith
began fusillade. He emerged with
four pelts. Smith said he saw 16
bears in all.

conversation, knowing so little of each
other, and still being husband and
wife, would be unable to greet each
other as strangers do at their first
meeting.
Most of the picture brides coming
to San Francisco do not stay in San
Francisco and within few days they
go to the farms in the country. But
before leaving San Francisco in
variably the husbands supply their
wives with American clothes, and in
San Francisco there are many stores
which cater to nobody but picture
brides.
Occasional Misfits.
The moral effect of the picture mar
riage" has been discussed, but, judging
from the practical results, there seems
to be no harm and no immortality in
picture marriage" Although there
occur once in while disappointed
brides or husbands when they are
placed face to face, such cases are
scarce. Even when such case has Oc-
CURED it does not tend to immortality,
as the brides who are disappointed
quickly return to their mothers, and
there were several who returned to
Japan even without landing on the
American continent.
1t is, however, always brides who
are disappointed, and not the husbands,
and the reason for this is the misunder-
stood prosperity of the United States.
The brides who thought that every
body in America has more than suffi-
cient money to spend, and imagined
their husbands to be the leading bust
ness men, or farm owners of the state,
were disappointed in finding their hus-
bands in Overalls or as small farmers.
All such disappointed brides returned
to Japan most angrily, although there
are several who obtained divorce and
have been making respectable and
good living by their own efforts.

are born in the japanese families In
the state of California.
The japanese immigrants, when they
become sufficiently prosperous to sup
port families, write to their parents
and relations in Japan to find wives for
them. The pictures of the prospective
husband and wife are exchanged
across the Pacific ocean, and when
both parties are found satisfactory
they are legally married in Japan, reg
istering their marriage in the govern
ment records. When the women are
legally established as wives their pass
ports to the United States are obtained
from the government.
When one knows the nature of the
marriage the fact is not astonishing,
but still the sight at the American
piers IS very interesting. Not only
on the boat the wives are eagerly
searching for their husbands who are
still strangers to them, but on the pier
board the boat resembling those of the

Many japanese and even Americans
curiously wondered what a couple
would say when they met each other

many months. A story is circulated

population that once a japanese mer-
chant there welcomed his picture
bride, but finding no words to say to
his bride upon his first meeting with
her he said: "How hot it is tOdayw

And for the rest of the day the two
did not speak one word.
