We count thIngs from the French' '

reasonable ; 1l Is superficial , however ,
every tlmo a countr ' shows a tempest
In a teapot to 'draw parallels of the agl.
tatlon therein and the great revolu.
tlon that overturned France. The
country wo shall speak of , Russia , Is
not to bo classed with those mo.
mentarlb' disturbed by lIttle ripples of
unrest ; present conditions In Russia ,
the sinister aspect of the people , bear
strlldng likeness to conditions In

however , the American In China Is
as secure as ho would be In his home' '
In the United States.
It Is well understood In omclal and
other circles that It Is useless. to kl1l
foreIgners. ' 1'hero Is a general runnIng -
nIng after foreign things and foreign
ways : Men havIng foreign trainIng
are In demand. The same men had
to rup for their lIves In " , Hex r" times.
At the same time there Is anxIety to

national prIde and partly from a de.
sIl'o to keep the good thIngs for the I
ChInese.
l\llsgIvings for the future are based
on fear of an antidynastIc rIsIng , lrob.
'ably ' on the part of the radicals. ThIs

remount their cavah'y In about four

neuvers were most creelltablo.
'l'hem are serIous Ilaws In the army.
The Chlneso solclIers wll1 blaze away
blank cartridges In fine style , but they
are not trained t ; > shoot. Target prac.
tlco Is rare. It Is doubtful If the mett
would follow their 'omcers except tc
the rear , and it Is doubtful If the offi.
cers would go anywhere else.
The "AmerIcan boycott" novel' se.
rlously affected the Intorlor. A few

A serIous question Is the educationaJ
