cents for having the steamer trunk
re-checked into Peking. 1t had al
ready been set off on the platform
and the coolie who put it back in
the train expected money and was
not satisfied with what he received.
Baggage arrangements in the east
are not what they are at home. For
instance in Peking where we were
leaving quite early in the morning.
1T was impossible to check the
trunk the evening before. The
checker asks for ten cents: the
weigher wants money; and with the
rushing. crowding and iamming at
the cars, travel is not always as
pleasant as the interesting play of
agreeable children.
At the first place we called In
Peking, being directed by a kind
lady we had met on the journey, we
were unable to secure lodging. but
she gave another address and when
we took our rickshas again at her
gate she said if we had any trouble
to call the police. The coolies got
mad and refused to take us. This
lady, doctor of some character.
Immediately sent her coolie for an
officer with the assurance that she
would not put up with such con-
duct. Then our fellows became
willing to go and away we went
till just around the corner when
down went the shafts and Mr.. Rich
sha man asked for his pay. He
was told to take us on or the police

have a dfsagreeable effect upon his
head. Though this was poor way
to deal 1t brought action and soon
we were on our way again-but
another stop is made as soon as a
policeman is found. Here the ma
tive has the advantage of the for
eigner and the policeman motions
for us to get out, but we didn't.
Showing him the written address
we wished to reach he put some
thing on the paper and after while
we pulled up at the desired gate to
find the lady had not yet returned
from church. So we waited. When
she came we at once made terms
and were shown to our room in the
Chinese house she and her associate
were occupying, and it turned out
that the other girl was an Episco-
pal nurse from Canada who voyaged
on the s. S. Nanking the year be-
fore as we went to Japan and her
brother and the writer had part in
one of the Sunday meetings on that
vessel.
Monday forenoon was spent in Of
flee work and in bringing the trunk
over from the depot by ricksha. In
the afternoon we went to the Tenn
pie and Altar of Heaven, one of the
show places of this city, which has
seen some 5000 years of his
tory, and has been the capital of
China for seven centuries. First |
we pay small fee and enter a |
great gate in the side of a high |
oval brick wall which seems to be
some miles in circuit enclosing a |
large area most of which is simply
open ground grown up in weeds. |

some willows (not anything like the

Yellow river. and some small effort
has been made in the line of forest

there is no sign whatever of trees

bryo school teachers who are taking
the summer course will be able to
handle the situation next year in
their little country schools should the
university introduce the broadcasting
plant.
The idea of the university instruct
ors is to thoroly instruct Delaware
teachers, and especially those having
rural schools, in the art of receiving
radio messages, so that broadcast
ing set at Newark can send out val
liable lectures on history and other
subjects in such a manner that the
children of any rural school, thru the

ing, can hear every word of the lee

the mass importation OF strike-break-

This means that no general lmporta-

was explained. Individuals In the
zone. however, will be permitted to
seek and accept employment.
Two women whose names were not
divulged changed their minds in a
hurry when their laughing refusal
to halt on command drew fire from a
sentry. The women were passing the
outpost in an automobile. At the
guards command to halt they laughed
ad the driver stepped on the gas. The
sentry then fired one shot into the air
and the women halted for Identifies
ton.
Complaint was lodged with Major
johnson against the stopping Of q
train by guardsmen near Kenilworth
last Monday night. The patrol. sta
toned at crossing, had orders TO
halt and investigate any passing that
way. The train started down from
Kenilworth and was halted. Upon ar.
rival here the crew complained to the
yardmaster.
Major Johnson has made an inspec-
tion trip up Spring canyon to see
that all orders are being properly en-
forced. Ten men under Lieutenant
