Chinese Arrest Man
Without Any Charge

A situation bearing enough Of the
usual about 1t to be somewhat typical
of Chinese judicial or military ways
arose here with the arrest of a Chinese,
educated at Haverford College and on
the staff of q Chinese news-gathering
organization. This reporter, Samuel
Chang. was invited with q number of
his newspaper friends to a tea party
given in a cafe outside the international
settlement, where different judicial pro-
cedures prevail. In the midst of the
party Chang, with his colleagues, was
surrounded by military detectives and
taken to the military prison at Lunghwa
The Chinese Newspaper Reporters AS

ChangS release and at the same time 1t
has requested the military officials to
inform the organization why the man
was arrested. Chang himself has not
yet been informed of the nature of his
oftense. Furthermore there is nobody
to whom he can appeal. His friends say
he may have been too friendly to the

dignant at the absence of compliments.

Stockholm Proves Ideal City
For Sweden's Exposition

There is no reason why such build
ings should be permanent, for they can
not serve other purposes effectively, yet
what lamentable remains of former eX-
positions have cluttered up many Of our
cities and refused to be obliterated from
sheer size and awesome grandioseness.
The light, impermanent structures OF
| this Swedish show not only meet ex-
actly the needs for which they were
created but they suggest that they will
not be difficult to remove and consign
to the oblivion that all temporarily
need structures should be relegated to.
Plants Relieve Austerity.
Yet if geometry has been the support
of the architectural design and aus
terity its accompaniment in this group
of buildings, this formality and aus
tereness are well relieved by the album
dance of flowers which are planted
everywhere, the beautiful trees and the
sloping terraces of greenery that reach
down to the waters Of the little bay.
Letters in high relief executed in
brilliant colors which indicate the
character of the particular booths,
closely set flagpoles, with their enor-
nous f1ags-the blue with yellow diago-
mails of Sweden and the yellow with
blue emblems of the exposition, as well
as smart advertising devices, never
banal and obtrusive, but decorative and
contributing an actual note of interest,
are other means of enlivening the
severity of the exhibition without at
tempting to add meaningless and tire
some ornamentation to the buildings
themselves.
An advertising tower Of iron, about
$50 feet high, set with electric light
signs advertisements, the exhibition
nwNI fYrl
the top-dominates the central plaza
and adds brilliancy to the effect OF the
night Examinations.
There is, also, an illuminated foun-
tain which changes both its colors and
its contours, as we'll as particularly
clever form of lighting device in the
ordinary lamp-posts which stud the ex-
position walks.
Good Designs in Mass Products.
But aside from the choice examples
of etched glass from Orrefors, or OF
crystal glass from Kosta, Elme and Eda,
or the beautiful ceramics, pewter and
almost infinitively varied handmade
textiles which delight the visitor TO
this exhibition, there Is also group Of
exhibits of articles made by mass pro-
duction and consequently suited to the
modest pocketbook and humble home.
These articles-glass, pottery, furni-
ture, wrought iron-are marked by the
same good design as the expensive prod
ucts of hanelicrafts. The inexpensive,
nodded glass. for example, is carried
out In beautiful richness of color and
in striking forms. The tableware, de-
signed primarily for workmen's homes,
is attractive in shape, glaze and deco
ration. 1t Is difiicult to realize on view
ing this array of lower-priced table
service that such delightful pottery Is
available at reasonable terms. It's tex
ture. color and restrained decoration
make it most allurtns.

Man Classed as |'Dead''
Loses Vast Property

Juventino Ledesma is man who has

nephew, Jose Alverez, inherited from
him when news reached Mexico that he

the swift current carried him away and
he was discovered unconscious many

Suffering from amnesia and unbalanced
mind, he was reported missing until a

claim his property.
