ciety, WaBhlnnton, V. C.)
Two hills stretching to the sen so
as to form n charming bay, und be
tween them an undent, half-Spanish,
wholly southern city; Its roofs tufted
with verdure, rising one above anoth
er on terraced slopes; Its houses with
their once gny tints nil faded, basking
In peaceful decrepitude In n sunshine
llko thnt of June; the town fust
nslccp; the harbor silting up; the
walls crumbling; the Iron gratings
lusting; the pavements turning green;
the gables nodding like old gray heads,
tired of listening to the same old sto
ries such Is Mncno, the Far Eastern
Mtpost of the Portuguese trailers of
he Sixteenth century, the Monte Cnr
o of the Orient, and one of Portugal's
few rcmnlnlng possessions In Pacific
waters.
Macao Is situated on tho west side
ef the Pearl river. Forty miles ncross
Is Hongkong; eighty-eight miles to the
north lies Canton, sent of the South
China government. Macao was found
ed In 1557. Prior to 1887 there ap
pears to have been no documentary
evidence of n formal cession of this
territory, tho Portuguese claiming,
however, that they received It ns a
reward for destroying tho horde 'of
Mongolian pirates that hurried the
southern const of Chirm; and tho re
mnlns of the old barrier across the
narrow neck of land separating the
penlnsulnr town from the rest of the
Island of Heung Chan, nnd once guard
ed by Chinese soldiers, gavo color to
tho Portuguese claim. However, all
doubts were laid to rest In 1SS7 when
fonnul cession wns tnndo by Chlnn to
the Portuguese.
Macao's Rise and Fall.
So murvelous was the growth and
prosperity of this Portuguese settle
ment In Its youth thnt it excited the
envy of the early Dutch trnders who
In 1022 attempted Us conquest. The
spot where tho Dutch lender was
killed by a round shot from Monte
fort, which wrote finis to that at
tempt, Is now marked by a monument.
Macao continued to be n nourishing
mart up to 1811. the British Fast In
dia company nnd the Dutch compnny
meanwhile obtaining n foothold there.
Tho British free trade propaganda of
the "Forties" excited n demand for u
free port at Mncno, to which the Por
tuguese demurred. Grent Britain then
secured tho Hongkong concession,
mndo that n free port In 1815, und
the decline of Macao ns nn entrepot
dates from thnt year.
Not only Is Macao the site of tho
first Kuropenn claim made on Chinese
soil, but It has cultural ties with Eu
rope closer knit than the political re
lationships of controverted area's to
the north. It coutnlns the oldest ruin
In Chlnn thnt Is associated with Eu
rope, and the tamarind nnd banyan
shade the gardens where the Por
tuguese Chuuser, Cnmoens, composed
half of tho Luslods, celebrating the
discoveries of the Portuguese explor
ers who opened up for tho West tho
secrets of tho East. It Is one of the
hnlf-dozen of the world's great epics.
Camoens' Place of Exile.
Luis de Camoens, the star of Lusi
ttinlnn poetry, beenmo enamored of
Cnthnrlnn d'Atnyada, lndy-ln-honor to
Queen Cntharlna of Portugal, which
80 enraged tho king thnt ho banished
tho poet to Macao, about 1G07, where
he remained for five years as admin
istrator of tho effects of deceased per
sonsa, melancholy oillec for n poet
and lover. Itcturnlng In 1572, his ves
sel was wrecked, his small savings
wero lost, but tho poem which 1ms
been translated into every civilized
language wus saved to an appreciative
posterity. A monument to Camoens
mnrks the spot In tho grotto where ho
composed his noblo epic. ,
Macao bus snoozed peacefully away
on Its Island In Into years while con
troversies have raged around the hand
ful of other foreign holdings on the
Chlncso const. But recently tho gov
ernment of Southern China Is reported
to have demanded thnt there bo a
"cleanup" in tho city, n procedure,
which If cnrrled out would entail rec
ognition of tho Southern China govern
ment us well ns ucceptnnco of Its right
to rulo in what has long been consid
ered Portugueso territory.

that Is not why most folk board the
dally bont from Hongkong to go there.
It is a summer resort for tho Canton
ese because of its exposure to tho
cooling monsoons In mid-summer.
Opium smugglers nnd gamblers, In re
cent years, have loomed large among
Its transients. Formorly tho Chlncso

hnvo wnrrnntcd the characterization
of ono traveler who called them "tho
most dangerous wnters of the world
from a police standpoint," nnd added
"n river trip is spiced with the risk
of piratical attack."
Revenues From Gambling.
The Ideas of Henry George nnd oth
er tax theorists hnvc found a niggard
soil In Macao, whoso llscnl policy Is
simplicity Itself. Poo-dicc and fan
tan provide tho revenues of tho city.
It has been said thnt half the minted
pieces of the Far East find their wny
sooner or later to the gambling boards
of Macao, and the old lllx dollar, tho
Mexican peso, and tho Amcrlcun dime
are clinked upon Uio tables of tho
Jeuncsso doree, or of tho 'rlckshuw
coolies and harbor riff-raff of tho town,
while a dally llow of mou, women nnd
dollnrs crosses the estnary from Hong
kong to Macao and pours Into tho
hells of the ltoa do .Togo, or gambling
street.
Fun-tan Is the favorite game, but It
is nothing like the card game of that
name known to Americans. Tho Chi
nese croupiers sit enthroned before a
.sqtinre marked nt tho corners with
the numbers 1, 2, 3 nnd 4. The banker
reclines behind n grating, smoking n
long pipe. Overhead Is a gallery run
ning nil around the room und forming
a sort of celling, pierced only by a
hole the slzo of tho tublc. From this
gnllery the bets are made, and the
stakes nro alternately lot down and
drawn up, accompanied by the sound
of drawling minstrelsy.
The croupier takes n handful of
sninll coins nnd covers them with n
reversed howl, while money is laid
on one of tho four numbers. When
the betting has censed ho lifts tho
bowl and separates the coins with his
wnnd. Then he counts them by fours,
nnd the remainder, or tho Inst four,
If thero be no rcmnlndcr, represents
the winning number. Each hazard Is
n one-to-three wager, nnd tho bnnks
pay on that basis, after deducting the
house percentage. A number of these
licensed gambling dens, graded accord
ing to the limit of wager allowed, puy
the revenues of tho city of Macuo.
Attractive to Travelers.
Present day Macao is not marred
for the casual traveler by cither lte
flnlr for fun-tun or Its thriving trndo
In opium. The latter Is shipped away
to wreak its havoc; the former brings
tho bizarre and tho adventurous'. The
city of todny Is one of the few Far
Eastern const towns which have not
been caught In the resistless current
df commercial progress, nnd for that
reason It presents some Interesting
studies to lovers of tho picturesque.
Ho who lands from n steamer Is
captivated by Its blend of Portuguese
nnd Chlncso people, by pagoda and
western church, and when tho sum
mons of hunger lends him to a hotel
thnt has been called the cleanest nnd
most beautifully situated In the Or
ient, the contrnst persists. He may
order tho famous Portuguese eolareB
with his yellow wot?r chestnut pasties,
nnd chooso cither ultrn-qccldcntal
gnmc dinners or pudding of co'agulnted
duck's blood and sugnr-preserved bntn
boo shoots. There nre but 4,000 Por
tugueso resident there, but they rep
resent n four-century Impress thnt
their nutlonnltty bos made upon the
total population of about 75,000.
After dinner the visitor may stroll
along tho Pruyn Grnnde, both the
Broadway nnd tho Riverside drive of
.Macao. Having shopped and slummed,
he finally will bo led to catch tho
deeper romance of tho city In tho
grotto where the poots hnvo carved
lines of praise to tho one-eyed Boldlcr
poet who wrote the glory of farthest
West Europe on un Islnnd of nearly
furthest East China.
