CHINAlS
TRYING TO
FIND HERSELF
The Progressive OrientaIs
Have Appealed to Ma
tiOnai Pride

FEKIN, Aug. 29-China is con-
fronted by two serious problems.
One is to effect ratification of the
North and South. The other is to
induce her people to participate
actively in public affairs The 40O,-
100000 Chinese are admittedly
apathetic. This historic condition
is being slowly overcome by the
activities of progressive thinkers,
the spread of Chinese newspapers
and a growing disposition on the
part of public men to take the
public into their confidence.
General WI Pei-fu, the recent
victor over Chang Tso-lin, has just
addressed an appeal to the ma
ton. He asks the public to indi
cate its wishes as to the country's
future.
Influential Chinese merchants in
the interior, in a memorial de-
manding the disbanding of troops,
called upon General WI to work
as great for China as George
Washington did for America. "You
may become the Washington OF
China, says the memorial.
Personally General WI has dis

claimed any political ambition. In
his appeal he asks the public. to
decide what shall be the pallia-
mentaiy procedure for reconstrue-
ton.
"For che past several years, sui
ferings have fallen upon China,
one after another and there
have been continuous civil wars
between North and South" says
the appeal. "As result the
country is come to serious con
dition. Recently the Manchurian
party made more trouble and
plunged the country into wa.
Fortunately through the efforts of
faithful soldiers, the invading
troops have been defeated and the
country is saved.
"The Republic of China has
been established for II years, but
the country has not been united,
the constitution has not been re-
spected, and the troops have not
been organized. These defects arc

During the past few days opinions
concerning the convocation of I
parliament vary greatly. Some
urge the restoration of a first par
lament, some the reconvention of
the third one, while others urge
the calling of a National Affairs
Conference in accordance with the
will of the people. Many Others
propose the system of provincial
autonomy.
"These are good antidotes for
present day China but if those who
respect the will of the people and
the principles of the laws do not
act concurrently, it will be hard
to settle all policical questions
properly. We are soldiers, and
our duty is to protect the nation
and the people. We know nothing
of the political situation. There

country will consider this matter
and express your views as to the
of China at the earliest
possible date"

SAYS RUSSIAN
REFUGEES ARE
DYING DAILY
PitifuI Scenes Daily Seen
Tn COnstanti-
nOple

Mrs. Arthur Ryerson of Chicago
who has just returned from Con-
stantinople tells a pitful story of
the hardshipS of Russian refugees
in the capital Of the Turks. She
declares that little children fall in
the streets from exhaustion due to
lack of food, aged men and women
sleep on bare boards and without
blankets in stables and cellars, for
mer generals now drive taXicabs
and young girls OF gentle breeding
work for a pittance as mattresses
in an attempt to support older or
younger members of their families.
Mrs. Ryerson was induced to tell
of her experiences in the hope that
Americans would need the appeals
of the emergency fund for Rus
sian refugees in Constantinople
and the Balkan states. Contribu-
tons are expended for relief under
the direction of Admiral Bristol,
the American high commissioner
at Constartinople.
Mrs. Ryerson left the Turkish
capital about a month ago. The
food supply was giving out and
only the timely arrival of expected
American food ships would save
thousands from starvation.
"The thousands of Russians who
came through in 1912" said she,
"were guaranteed safe conduct and
protection bv the allies. They have
been starving in Constantinople
ever since. There is no possibility
of work there, even for the able
bodied men. The larger part are
old people and little children, the
sick and the weak, women with
tuberculosis without any chance of
nourishing food or sanitary lodging
They live in cellars underground.
Men go insane for lack of food
and lose their eyesight and teeth
from hunger.

Of gentle birth, great beauty and
good manners are at a premium
to serve in the Russian restaurants
of which Constantinople is full.
They must be gracious and well
dressed and persuade their custom
ers to spend money on food and
drink. They have no future. They
get about 30 cents day, and have
to support a whole family on that.
"a girl | know, about % years
old, had been a lady in waiting to
the late czarina, and was the sole
support of her aged father and
mother and two small nephews.
Both her brothers had been kill
ed by the bolsheviki. They lived in
a hut on an island in the Bosphor-
Gus. She came to and fro every
day, rain or shine, on an uncertain
little felTyboat. to get the $15 a
month with which she had to feed
the whole family. In one of the re-
fugee camps, 100 men were herd
ed together in the old stables of

WOMEN ARE ALL

ny coral isle in the South Seas,
where lazy palms fringe the coral
atolls, and the women, young and
beautiful, out number the men
more than fourteen to one, and
where thirty cents lasts month
this is the story told of Tagawa
an islet of the Ellice group, by
Captain J. A. T. Olsen of the
American schooner Henriette,
wrecked July 10.
Captain Olsen and members of
his crew are in Honolulu with the
British steamer Hauraki, which
picked them up at Tagawa, and is
taking them to San Francisco.
And the captains tale follows:
"Tagawa is the only habitable
island of the Ellice group. Its
population consists of 100 persons
of whom only twelve are men.
"Our schooner was swung off
her course and onto Nukuaiili
reef by heavy seas.
owe struck at night and at dawn
we tried for the ,flore. Before we
hit the coral, we saw native men,
clad only in loin clothes, pushing
an outrigger canoe into the water
and, with their assistance, we made
shore in safety. If it had not been
for the natives we probably would
have lost our lives in the heavy
surf.
"Our coming was hailed with
joy by the natives, who pass their
existence in state Of isolation.
The women outnumber the men
fourteen to one, and some of them
are beautiful. Their ages range
from twelve to eighteen years and
there are only a few older.
"The Chief of the TRIBE a hus-
ky Samoan turned over his grass
hut palace to the mate and myself
to be used as our private quarters
He also rendered me one OF his
daughters, a beautiful dark-haired
girl with lovely figure, as a ser

and would not have missed the ex-
perience for any money.
81 had only 80 cents in my pock-
ct, but money was no object. Many
dinners were given in our honor
and native maidens in grass skirts
performed hula dances for our
amusement.
"All inhabitants of the islands
are Christians and all lead upright
lives.
owe had a hard time getting
away. The women wanted hus-
bands and they pleaded with US
and coaXed US to stay Owing to the
isolation of Tagawa, most of the
men of marriageble age have left
it, some have gone to sea as sailors
and others are scattred throughout
the southern ocean and as far west
as Australia
"On our twentieth day on the
island, Mate r. p. Benson sighted,
the masts of the steamer Hauraki
We put out our boat and signalled
repeatedly, finally catching the at
tention of those aboard her and
they picked us up.

the Hauraki had not sighted us,

island by the London Missionary
Society boat, which calls at TaRa-
