J. Nightlngalo of Pasadena, Cal.,
who ha been an electrical salesman
In China for aeveral years, told the
Lion club Wednesday in the Hotel
Fontenelle many strange things about
that land.
Once he went Into a Chinese store
and aaw a beautiful vase. The propri
etor, thinking him it tourUt, asked
200 for It. Mr. Nightingale knew It
won worth about $1, but lie offered
ll.GO. The Chlnuman thereupon of
fered It for 2.
"How come you allVtime talkee
J20O and this time you talkee $2?" de
manded Mr. Nightingale, accusing the
Chinaman of his brazen attempt to
get $200 for tho vaae.
The merchant, entirely unembar
rassed, shrugged his shoulders and
replied simply, "Sometimes I sell."
"There are practically no highwuy
In China except a few dozen milts
In and about the great seaport cities,"
said Mr. Nightingale. All the rest Is
covered only by footpaths where
travel must be on foot or 111 sedan
chairs. If you want to go fast you
take a sedan chair with six coolies.
Two of them carry you while the oth
er four rest as they run behind.
Chlim Is the land of opposite. The
women wear pants, the men skirts;
you start to read a book or newspaper
from the Jjaok; you shake your own
hand Instead of your friend's when
you meet him."

Washington ,Nov. 30. (Special Tele
gram.) Henator Norrla la taking seri
ously the proposal to amend the con
stitution to the extent of having mem
ber of congress and the president
take their office as soon aa practicable
lifter th elocliona are held. It de
veloped today that when the Caraway
resolution wa presented to the ag
ricultural committee. It wa done In
the nature of a Joke. Kuveral effort
have previously been made to have
the Judiciary committee take up the
i.uestlon of the proposed amendment,
but without avail,
"Now that the farmers have turned
lawyers," said Henator Norris, who Is
a member of the Judiciary committee,
"there is action, and I shall present
ami urge the resolution which the ag
ricultural committee authorized me
to write and present It appear now
there is much sentiment for the pro
posed amendment In congress. I have
had a proposed amendment before the
Judiciary committee for some time,
calling .for the abolition of ihe elec
toral college, and while I am chair
man of tha subcommittee which has
the mutter in charge, I have never
been uble to get a meeting. Perhaps
there will be a disposition to act on
that too, now that the agricultural'
committee has commenced to take up
Judicial ijuestlcns.
