Another year has passed in the

conception on tho part OF the ma

half a dozen very large jobs in the
city, the importance of which Ia

grossly exaggerated
"The building industry at that time
was In very serious condition. Cost
had become so abnormally high that
the public was not building, except
in extreme necessity. This condi-
tion continued throughout the spring
and summer. when a decline set in
the bubble bursted. we all realized
that we had been living In a Fools

unemployed. There is a nationwide

Buenos Aires, Sept. When
President Warren G. Harding said at
the unwilling of the statue of General
Simon Bolivar in New York that free

due principally to two heroes, Wash

forth afresh an old controversy re-

AMERICAN SAILORS
SEE BULL FIGHT in
PORTUGUESE CITY
Side With the Bull and Cheer When
the Fighters Are Suddenly
Put To Rout

Lisbon, Sept. 13.-Sailors of the
American warships who were enter
tanned in this city when the American
squadron visited Portugal the other
day, saw Portuguese bullfight and
Justify cheered for one of the bulls.
A Portuguese bullfight is more a
display of splendid horsemanship and
skilful feints than a cruel sport, such
as the Spanish bullfight. There is no
bloodshed. The bulls are merely
leased by the bullfighters and others
who pierce his hide with their tor
menting darts. The horns of the bulls
are covered with leather balls so that
they can do no great damage and the
proof of the skill of the horseman is
never to let his horse to be touched
by them. He makes his horse curvet
around the furious animal occasional
ly placing his "ferros" in the bulls
neck.
After that a group of peasants wear
ing green and red caps advance into
the ring and each in turn tries to
throw himself on the bull, either be-
tween his horns or on his neck, and
to cling on there despite the frantic
attempts of the animal to rid him
self. If one succeeds in clinging on
all the other peasants rush up and
hang on to the bull until he is reduced
to impotence.
The American boys cheered all this
with great enthusiasm but the real
outbreak came when one bull leaped
after one of his tormentors over
wooden partition and into a group of
bullfighters, scattering them right and
left.
Roars of laughter filled the enor-
nous circus and laundering cheers
and cries of bull, bull, bull" burst
from the Threats of the Americans.
The bullfighters suddenly forgot
their elegant attitudes and studied
poses and fled in wild disorder while
the amphitheater resounded with the
laughter and cheers of the Americans.

Naples, September 13.-A funeral

Alterio, reputed to have been one of

CHINESE DO NOT
WANT SETTLEMENT
OF SHANTUNG NOW
Prefer To Wait Until Armament
Conference Before Taking Up
That Vexatious Question

KaruiZawa, Japan, Sept. 13.-What-
ever may be the attitude of Picking Of
ficials regarding a settlement of the
Shantung question prior to the Wash
ington conference, the mass of the
Chinese people, especially the liberal
element, is fatty opposed to such
settlement, according to the Rev
Rowland NJ. Cross of Picking, who is
now in Karuizawa.
THE liberal following in China,
which includes the students and the
business element, distrusts Japan's
slightest move today" the Rev. Mr..
Cross said. They do not think that
Japan even wants to negotiate for the
return of Shantung-certainly they
do not think that Japan ever intends
to return Shantung unless compelled
to do so by force.
even if Japan were willing, they
are against settlement now, because
their distrust of the officials of the
Chinese government is practically as
great as their distrust of Japan. They
know that an agreement between
these officials and Japan would be
such that the Chinese people would
not benefit from it, for Japan and the
corrupt officials would leave no bene-
fits for the people, they claim.
There is one exception to that
DR.. Yen, the new minister of foreign
affairs in Picking, who, | think. is try
ing to do the right thing. At least he
has the confidence of the students
whom | come in contact with, and
they do not think that he will con-
sent to Shantung settlement until he
is sure that China will get back the
entire concession originally stolen
from her by Germany and that China
will be able to hold it from grating
individuals
The Rev. Mr.. Cross, who has been
working among the student class in
Picking for the last four years, has
been in Karuizawa attending the an
nual meeting of the American Board
as fraternal delegate from China.
The object of his visit is to work for
a better understanding between the !
Chinese and Japanese which may lead |
eventually to better International re-
lationS.

LACK OF PERFUMES IS
WORRYING THE TURKS

Angora, Sept. 13.-One of the wom-
anly war tragedies here is the lack of
perfumes. Turkish women preserve
their beauty by frequent bathing, the
use of oil perfumes after the bath and
the drinking of buttermilk by the
quart.
The war has reduced the manufac-
ture of homemade perfumes, and the
national government has forbidden
the importation of foreign perfumes
under the head of luxuries. To make
the best of bad situation the women
have increased their consumption OF
