A Score of Thorn on Their

Recalled From America by Tholr
Oovornmont-
A party of Iwonty-ono Chinese stu-
Icnta , nccompaniod by nn instructor ,
arrived nt the depot yesterday morning
rorn Hartford , Connecticut. Thu
party left Hartford on last Monday ,
and have had a very pleasant trip
hu far. They stopped at Niagara
falls for a day , nnd they express
homsolvoR na delighted with that
wonderful freak of nature.
They are all bright , intelligent look-
ng young men , and are ablu to speak
English tlusntly. They range in ages
rom sixteen to twonly-two years.
The instructor , Professor Yun # , is
ab'ont forty years old , This party is
the first delegation of Cliincso ntu-
dcnls in Aineiicn which IIIIH boon re
called homo b'y the Uhini-flo govern-
mfiit The reasons forjtlio recall arc
unknown to the students , hut they
oflor various conjectures upon thouiat-
.cr , onu of which ia this :
Homo of the young men wished to
ontur the navnl school ut JVuiiupulia ,
BInryland , nnd BO signified their
wishes to their homo government.
Their request wan refused by the
government , nnd it is thought for the
reason that England , Ucrmtny and
Franco , having olloruil plucos in thuir
various naval schools , the Chinese
government , not wishing to discrimi
nate in favor of any one liation , de
cided to reject the olfurn of all the
different nations.
There are two morn dolcg.itions to
follow this one. The next one will
contain thirly-six students , nnd they
will start noon. After them the third
and last will embrace a party of about
eighty. They are now satttured
throughout > ho eastern waleriut , '
nlacus. As soon as they o in bo assem
bled at Ilurfford they will bo stint
homo. Tlio intention and purpose of
the Chinese government , in sunding
these young men to thin country i- ,
I hut they may be inxtiucted
in the English liingtmgo , and
also to guin a knowludgo
of American institutions. Thu dele
gation which passed thiough to-diiy
will all bu assigned dipionmtio poMn
in this country and Europe upon thuir
arrival home , and then utart for their
vnritnia postn of duty.
Tim members of this paity have at
tended the'diilcient ] ii > nciptl se.its of
education , huuh as lliirv.iid , Yale ,
Piincuton , Am'heist , Columbia , I'nr-
nell and the Boston technical school.
With tlio exception of tiu | instruc
tor , the students nro nil ( dres > od in
the American style , and wear the
latest style straw huts. Upon their
arrival in their own counMy they will
again don the national pub. Thuy
have a college or school in Hartford ,
whore , dtuini ; ovury long vac.ition ,
they are instructed in their native
language.
In a conversation with' ono of the
party , Wing 0. Toiitf , he B.iid
that ho had been much pleased
with his sojourn in America. His ad
miration for the nuttvo American was
unbounded , while his opinion of the
foreign American was not very high.
Jn answer to the question'wi'.ut Jio
thought of American institutions , ho
replied that ho was much impicssud
witli the system of government. Ho
said that he preferred the English sya-
tain'tPthc oiuiitt , use heir for the
reason tlmt it d"es not allow an indis-
crimiuato iiiimiuriitiiiii of foreiunerd.

Thin present disasrooablo condition
of the ntreets will soon bo a feature of

They ivill anivo in Omaha either to

RAILWAY FIGHT.
BOMKTHINU ON TIIK OTHEll SIDE O
QUBftTIOX.
Tliero has hardly boon a week
olapaod since John T. Baldwin outwit
ted the colonel over the way , in the
choice of dclegattk to the state con
vention nt DCS Monies , but that his
; ) apor has como out with an article
Derating the street company for their
lorilection of duty in operating their
cars on thu at i cats of the city , unfolding -
ing the cruel manner the compuiy1
liad buen serving thu poor. Now bu-
'ore the citizuns take too much stock
in thcsu accus.Uiani let them reason a
moment. The ptcsuilt stroiit railway
ms bt-cn in operation since 1803 , and
all thin time , if thu Nonpareil can bo
relied upon , has boon grinding in nti
unmerciful manner the Door mechan
ics of this city , and yo the paper over
the way has either boon ignorant as to
what has helm going on or they have
been tardy ill coming to the rescue of
the downtrodden and abused laborer.
Now if they really buliovo the present
system of street railway is and has
buen ciushing and grinding
the mechanic oven .16 this late hour
thuir act is commendable. But does
it not strike the average citizen that
there is a matured kitten under the
me it ? Dues it not look as if the at
tacks madij upon the company are
altogether for the bent-fit of thu me
chanic and laborer. The street rail-
xvay company , diiectly and indirectly ,
feudd and clot hey more than 1,000 cit
izens , a uumba- far exceeding imy
number that Mould be supplied miii-
tuiiunce from nny one single enter-
prisd over O-stablishOd hero. Now to
it the mjtiaie thini { to , drive this com-
p-iny to thu wall by exacting unporai-
bilities. The duiuund is made that
the Htreut car company bo compelled
to run a car to the transfer ovury fif-
tcon minutes. This they never , can
do unlusa they ky a double track , njul
this they c.in never do because the
pcoulo ha\u too much seiibo to milnnit
to such a pioposiliiui. Juh T. Bald
win is a man of wealth , and could live
handsomely without the assistance of
the income of the Ogduu Hotel or the
Council Blufid street railway. "A
biid iii the hand is wortli two in the
bush. " Lut us treat Mr. Baldwin
fairly in this matter. In this personal
quarrel the people should stand aloof
and look to their interest.
All glad to note that the city 1ma
men at the helm who are not factional ,
neither are they fanatical. We be
lieve thu interests of the city are siifu

the Rcaalt-
A certain man of town has got
himself into n snarl. The gentleman
referred to is quite popular wherever
known , and while not old is not ns
young ns ho used to bo some ycar >
Ago. If ho has ono weakness and
like most mortals ho has his
shore it is an ovcr-wooning re
gard for lovely woman. Ho
is quito n favorite among the sex and
his propensity in this respect han got
him into trouble. Ho is ono of a
number in this city who has the jumo
weakness , and can work up as much
enthusiasm for n given amount of
cause as any of them. Scino lima
ago it seems ho made the
acquaintance of an nitractivo
iniiriied lady nnd his affections at
onca became ultra-pl.itoitic. Hu
roomed around in the vicinity of
the house , nnd ns the story goes , even
invaded the domestic hOarthstonu. It
seems the lady herself was by no
means oblivious of the attentions
heaped upon her and took ns kindly
to the idea as tile gentleman. It so
happens that her husband is away a
good deal in thu evening , but lately
the lady has not been obliged to pine
for company. Last night her lover was
on hand na usual , nnd , unfortunately
lingered about until an unusual hour.
The hushntul arrived at homo very
unexpectedly whether because his
suspicions had been aroused or not is
unknown but ho surpiisedtho couplu
under circumstnnccs which would
cause the hair of the nverago culprit
BO caught to stand on end. There
was a lively scufllo for a fuw minutes ,
then n hasty exit through n
window , without the formal
ity of raising the sash , it is said. An
indifferently clothed figure was soon
afterward dodging in thu direction of
his homo. Whit the ultimate out
come of the nllair will bo is unknown ,
but there was onu mm walking about
town fueling rather uncomfnitablu
this morning , tad it wasn't ' the in-
jtued husband cither.
