No better teat of thn gradual loosening of i
the bonds -.xhlch for so many centuries have
made China the most exclusive and , least pro-1
grcHalvo of nation * could bo cited than the
freedom with which the children of the
Chinese legation are noxv permitted to
m..Uo ' xvlth American playfellows.
U U Indeed but a fexv years nVice the
T.'omcn of the legation xxcre Induced to nomc-
v.liat modify the abioluto seclusion to which
they xvcre accustomed In their "celestial"
honu < t , Mrs. Tsln Kno Yin being the first
to exchange social courtesies with the women
of the diplomatic corps. Nor xxas this
tremendous Innovation accomplished xvlthotit
serious misgivings on the part of the min

Eminent on llio part of bis friends.
Mrs. Yan Yu , her successor , easily slipped
Into the xvay xvhlch had boon opened for
her , her picturesque appearance and charm
ing personality making her a social favorite.
Al her first appearances In public she xvas
the object of much friendly Interest and un
disguised curiosity , but It soon became no
uncommon event to tee her In public , sur
rounded by her little family.
Thu children were thciefore early Intro
duced lo American custom : , , and under Amer
ican tutors advanced rapidly In the language.
The spirit of Freemasonry existing among
boys made It a comparatively easy matter
lor thn eldest son , a hey of 8 , to make ac
quaintances and gain friend * . He xxas pMoed
In school , and possessing nil unusually quick
inlnd , soun acquired enough imlisli : ; to ptex
ecute his ordinary studios In that language.
Ho became so attached lo his school frlrr.ds
and American xvaya generally that xvhcn In
April liint a change in the mlnlstiy xvas
inotlo the thought of turning his back upor.
nf entering the high school in Washington
tills aulumn. Mr. Szc , an attache of the
Icgallon and a very Intelligent Chln&maii.
xvas graduated from the high school In June ,
and Is already entered as a Httldcnt at Cor
nell. During a recent Inter * low xvllh Mr.
Szo he remarked that very much moro xvork
xxns expected of university men In China
than from the men here , their principal
study being In the line of their llttvaturc ,
which U complicated , Involved and dUflcult ,
but xvhlch they are taught to ndoro , Mr ,
Szo having just returned from a "spin , " xvas
dressed In the conventional English bicycle
suit , In xxhlch he looked very smart. He
docs not shave his head or wear a pigtail ,
and at Coinell will xvcar the ordinary dress
of an American citizen.
This cosmopolitan education of even a
sprinkling of the younger generation Is
bound to have Its Influence upon the Iron
clad customs of the old xvorld and the free
Intermingling of these hlgh-casto eastern
x\omen Tvllh llio xxell bred women of other
natlonx has already begun to bear fruit.
Mrs. Ho , for example , wife of the eecrclary
of Air , Yang Yu , although herself the victim
of bccidagcd feet , xvill not allow the feet of
her daughters to bo bound. Indeed , her
three little children , all born In this country ,
had American nurjcs and were fed , clothed
and taken care of exactly as American chil
dren are.
When the piesent minister xva asked :
"If you had a daughter , xxould you bind
her feet ? " nti Inscrutable look passed quickly
ncrcB ? his face , as he said :
"Madam , I have no daughter. '
"And If you had ? "
After corslderablu hesitation , he sloxxly ro-
plllid , "I do not think I should. " This xvas
the mori ! of a concession , as the minister
evidently takes great pride In the little feet
of his xvlfe. Mrs. Yang Yu's feet xviro not

it all xx-as a source of the greatest grief to
him. It was rather hard upon the boy , too ,
just as ho had got a good grip of his Eng
lish to be obliged to drop It and begin the
same grind on French , for as soon as It xvas
known that his father xvas to go to St.
Petersburg that Is' xvhat ho had to do , French
being the court language In Russia. Master
Yang Yu ulxxays xx-ore bis little Chinese cos
tume , xvhlch made him rather a conspicuous
figure among his playmates , but once a boy
tirovcs himself a thoroughly "good felloxx- , "
his clothes count for little xvltb hl chums.
The nexv minister. Mr. Wu , being a pto-
tcgo of LI Hung Chang , and , therefore , of
the more liberal party , besides having uludlcd
laxv In London four yws , had , perhaps ,
fewer prejudices to combat upon coming to
America tl.an any previous Chinese iiilnN-
ter , though to distinctly reverse one's social
cede Is always- more or less of a xvrench.
Mrs. Wu , ho\\'pv r , early made her entree
Into Washington society , and their only son ,
a lad of 10 , xvas Immediately placed In a pil-
vatu school. Of course his school life seems.
a little dull at first , as about all ho can do
is to sit and listen to the other pupil ? rn-
Cltlng , his teacher occasionally calling his
attention to some particular object and ic-
qulrlng him to pronounce Its name. How
ever. Washington teachers have had consid
erable experience xvlth the children of for
eigners and have consequently lea'iicd to
adapt their method ? to them xvlth a goodly
degree of skill. Recreation time Is quite a
different matter , as gainer and toys , the uni
versal language of boys , are fortunately
about the same the xvorld over. Balls , mar
bles , tops , hide-and-go-seek , etc. , are as much
the part nf a Chinese boy's life as of an
American's , and xvlth these us passports.
Master Wu already boasts his circle of boy
friends. He has even learned to ride a bl-
MASTEIl SZE.
cycle ( a diversion as yet little , known In
China ) , but owing tu his costume la obliged
to content himself xvlth a girl's wheel. Foot
ball Is also a nexv game to him , though
liaso ball Is quite a favorite game among
thu Chinese. Kite Hying Is much moio of
a pastime amongst Chinese boys than
amongst the Americans , and even old men
indulge In the amusement xvlth the gieateut
delight. Chlnesu boys nro also extiemely
expert at playing battledore and shuttle
cock and aniline- themselves xvllh It hours
together. Thu Fourth of July was the first
fete day that Master Wu witnessed In Amer
ica , and It seemed a very homo-llko celebra
tion to him , as fireworks , especially llio
crackcra , are used on almost every fete occa-
Bleu In China. The evening display In Wash
ington , however , xvas a great revelation to
Jilm , as , though the Chinese xvero the first
nation In the xvorld to make and use flru
crackers , and still continue to export them
In enormous quantities , they know little or
nothing of colored lights and the brilliancy
and magnificence of modern pyrotvchnlcal
tllaplays.
Life hoxvever. Is very far from being all
tocer and sklttlea to Chinese boys. They
are accustomed to t > pcndlng many morn
lioura a day at their studies than the ordi
nary American youth. Master Wu beside hla
regular school work , has a Chinese tutor
with whom he IB expected to xvork several
Siours a day at his studies In Chinese. Chin
ese parents are Indeed exceedingly strict and
careful In the training and education of their
children , rarely turning them over to the
nurses during their hours of play. The
C'hlncso mother of the higher class expects
lo spend the greater part of her time In the
companionship of her children.
Mrs , Wu alio brought with her to America
a cephexv of 16 , who Is hard ut work , tak

What do you think of a summer hotel
whose boarders are all of the fur , feather
or fin tribe dogs , cats , squirrels , rabbits
pigeons , canaries , parrots , gold fish and pet
turtles ? There really Is such an establish
ment In Nexv Utrecht , a suburb of Brooklyn
N. Y. , and It Is one of the most xvonderful
hotels In the xvorld , as you shall see.
This curious summering place for the
household pets of rich folks Is quite unknown
except to Its patrons , xvho are familiar xvlth
the xx.cll-kcpt structure and surrounding
grounds under the name of Chclmsford farm.
It Is an Ideal place for a xvell-brcd dog era
a bclf-rcbpectlng eat to pass the warm
months of the yenr. No one could trulh-
fully say that Chclmsford farm was not a
very respectable hostelry , and though the
price of board and lodging Is rather high ,
the tone of the place Is equally high.
Picture to yourself a beautiful stretch of
grenn laxvn , with fine old trees , xvalllng It
In on all four sides , and down at ono cor
ner of this emerald square ono big frame
house surrounded by u number of smaller
wooden structures , llko a hen In the midst
of her brood of chicks. That Is the xx-ay
the animals' hotel looks from the outside.
Let us first peep Into the cats' nuartcrs ,
xvhlch consists of a long , low building nest
ling under trees that shelter the feline hotel
from thn hot sun. A broad aisle runs
straight through the center of the building ,
while on both side. ] are apartments par
titioned off xvlth stout open-work xxlre xvalls
xvhlch I suppose are so constructed to alloxv
thu toms and tabbies to chat xvlth each
other without having to leave their own
looniH. Each of these rooms Is about six
feet wide and eight feet deep and from
floor to celling IB at' ' least a distance of nine
feot. So you see the cats' hotel at Chclms-
ford farm Is a large , airy and altogether
comfortable place In xvhlch to while away
the summer.
Looking after the xvelfaro of every cat ,
caring for them when they are sick and feed.
Ing them xxlth such delicacies as only a
pussy can appreciate , you may find John
Bauer , an affable German , xvho known more
about cats than most people know about
themselves. And yet , Mr. Bauer has _ to label
each of tlui cats' apartments , beca'uso txvo
or three of his boarders nro so nearly alike
that It would he an easy mailer to mix
them up. There nro three mallcto tabbies
at Chclmsfurd farm this summer that are
similar In every respect and their oxvn mas
ters could not tell them apart. When the
manager of the cats' hotel puts In an ap
pearance , there la a general cry of delight
fioin all the four-footed boarders , for ( hey
have grown very fond of John Bauer and to
see them rub their heads and shoulders
against the xxlro xvalls of their rooms and
reaching out their paxvs to caress him you
xvould think ho had knoxvn them all their
lives.
Thu dogs are housed In a series of big ,
loomy kennels , clean , cool and comfortable ,
They , too , are as fond of their hotel manager ,
John Hughes , as arc the cats of tlielrti.
Three limes a xxeek Mr. Htlgheu treats his
guests to a kind of canine Turkish bath ,
and ) uu may be sure their coats are sleek
and beautiful after each of these operations.
There are shady lanes through xvhlch the dogs
are alloxvcd to exercise and gambol on fine
days , and across the road from the farm Is
a pond xvhero noxv and Ihen Mr. Hughes'
cummer boadera are takan for a sxvlm. There
are thirty-eight dog guests registered at this
hotel , among them a number of Newfound
lands , St. Bernards , callles , terriers , setters ,
pugs nd spaniels , aud , as you can guess ,
dogs of valuable breeds like these represent
an enormous amount of money. The dogs
at Clielmsford farm are very swell indeed ,
aud most of them are there until the middle
of October , while the others will remain until
their oxxueru return from Europe , Hir H r-
bor , Newport and Narragansett bay late In
the fall ,
A bright little spinlel owned by a Brooklyn
woman furnishes entertainment now and then
for the other guests. "Beauty" Is the
spaniel's name , and she Is a great lover of
cake. When a piece of cake Is offered to her ,
no matter how hungry she may be , nothing
can induce her to toke It until some one
says. "That Is for you , Beauty1 you may cat
It , " when she will nuke It disappear In a
twinkling. Beauty will hang on tc rope's
end and will let herself bo swung around
the head of the keeper until you would think
her jaw would crack , and then bark xvlth de
light xvhen she fin ( Is that the rope could not
bu taken axvay from her.
But this big summer hotel Is not limited
In Its accommodations to cats and dogs only.
There are several r < | ulrrcl boarders , a chip
munk , a prait to dog and txvo marmosets , or
tiny monkeys. The latter are clever little
fclloxve , with snapping black eyes that hold
a world of mischief in their depths. They
have already succeeded In getting outside
their cages and raising > havoc among the
pigeons and parrots. U was only after a
deal of coaxing and a lavish expenditure of
nugar that the unruly guests were finally
caught , subdued and locked In their own
apartments.
For the parrots and pigeons there Is a
large cage , partitioned oft Into smaller cages.
The canaries and other small birds are
boarded In their oxvn cages , where they seem
to bo moro comfortable than In strange quar-
tcrs. Most of the parrot guests are great
talkers , and their constant babble Is amiiH-
Ing as It Is confusing ; It is a real babel of
bird voices. One big gray parrot xxlth an
Immense string of words at his command
and a voice that sounds like the rasping
of a flto on the edge of a tin plate , Is the
star boarder In the feathery section of the
Chclmsford farm. This parrot Is named
"Major. "
In a room near the birds' apartments the
pet fish are Icdged In numerous glass globes
and small aquarium tanks. Here arc gold
fish , sturgeon , speckled trout and a family
of mall turtles. These summer lodge's are
very peaceful and do not require the constant
atttntlon and care that their larger and
more lobust felloxv-boardcrs do. But they
are prized quite as highly by their owncis
and their loss xvould bo felt quite as keenly.
There Is no Institution similar to this Nexv
Utrecht summer resort for pets to be found
elsewhere In the xVhole xvlde xvorld. It Is
entirely original and unique and a day pcni
among 1U furry , feathery and scaly denizens
would maka glad the heart of any healthy
boy or girl.

I ECHOES OF THE ANTE ROOM f
The last and nioMImportant , event In-secret
society circles In which people of all societies
and of the city gcricrally were. Interested
was the securing of the 1S9S meeting of the
Sons of Veterans or , This city. This will be
one of the big gatliprlnps of next year , It
being estimated tlmt The usual attendance Is
close to 5,000. Wlth'tho attractions that will
bo In store for the visitors and the cheap
railroad fares from all parts of the country
the local members of the order count on even
a larger attendance.
The credit for securing the Important con
vention Is duo to the Nebraska delegation ,
which consisted of Senator John M. Thurs-
ton , A. H. Haxvltzcr and Frank Coatcs of this
this city , George \Volz of Fremont and W.
H. Davis of Wilbur. These men worked
early and late on the matter , In fact devoted
their whole time to It. The result xvas that
on the first ballot the fight was only against
Denver , that being the solo city that stood
any show outside of this city. On the second
ballot Omaha captured the prize.
The local members propose to begin early
their preparation for the entertainment of
the visitors. As Is known already the en-1
oamntnent will be held on the old fort
grounds , which were secured for that pur
pose. A good many of the visitors will tent
out In this beautiful spot. Entertainment
of various kinds will have to be provided for
the visitors and a hall must be secured for
the business meetings , Altogether the local
Sons of Veterans expect to have their hands
full to inako all the necessary arrangements
and they Intend to begin early. The en
campment will bo held on September 13 , 14
and 1C.
This capture of the location was sufllclcnt
to make the last encampment an Important
one In the eyes of Omahans. In other re
spects , however , the session did not prove to
be very Interesting. There was practically
no business of Importance transacted. Al
most the whole session xvas dcx'otcd to the
consideration of plans to Increase the. mem
bership.
The urcsent outlook Is that the secret so
cieties of the city will cut a bigger figure
In the civic parade of next week than In any
jcar since the royal Ak-Sar-IJen family took
Ui1 Its abode In this city. Thcro Is over >
n.ouiiso that the parade of next Tuesday
night will Include the biggest display of se
cret societies that has ever been seen In the
otv. [ Not an order , big or little , has fulled
to make arrangements for as big a turnout
& < its membonihlp will permit.
This Is the result of better management In
the first place. Invltatlcns to take part In
'he oarade xvoi'o sent out rally and they xverc
sent to every lodge of every order In the
city. And every lodge of every order has
? cted favorably upon the Invitations. More
than that many of the bodies went further
than to merely accept the Invitations , and
here the second cause for the promUed big
turnout Is to bei fpurid. A laie number ol
them appointed committees and took othci
mcano to see that astmany of their members
. \s possible shotild 'come Into the ranks ,
.Vpver before In .the .history of the house ol
Ak-Sar-Uen xvas such , universal and enthusi
astic cognizance/ / the edict of his majesty
to como forth and march. There may still
be a third cause for thl . In that these folk

The session of the great council and the
jubilee cejcbratlon of the fiftieth aanlversary
of the organization of the order summoned
great numbers of Red Men to Philadelphia
last xveck. They enjoyed a great time , for
they seemed to have become the guests of
the city. In their honor stores and houses
xvcre decorated xvhh the colors and emblems
oC the order and every hour of their lelaure
time xvas taken up with receptions , enter
tainments , excursions and other affairs.
Little has yet been learned of the proceed
ings of the business sessions , which xverc , of
course , secret. An attempt xvas made to
reduce the membership one-half In all the
councils of the order , the mileage from 5
to 4 cents and the per diem from ? 5 to $4 ,
but the proposition roused such a storm of
protest that action xvas postponed Indcll-
nltely. The great keeper of xvampum re
ported that the receipts of the jcar xvere
$25,717.30 , and the disbursements ? 10,591.C3.
The grand totals for the last great aun xvcre
reported to be as folloxvs : Adoptions , 29,424 ;
reinstatements , 1913 ; admissions by card ,
1.C39 ; suspensions , 23,293 ; rejections , 'JG5 ; ex

Grand Chief of Records C. C. Conley sjld
regarding the general condition of the order :
"I have received a full report xvlth per cap
ita tax from every state great council In the
order , and xxlth few exceptlona they show an
Increase In membership and In their xvam
pum belts. Wo have 100 tribes , outside of

expectation noxv Is that In the near future
\vo will Inbtltuto state great council fires In
North Carolina , Arkansas , Arizona , Wash

outlook a great sun hence there xvlll bo a

Last xxcek the Grand Army veterans ol
this state gathered in regular reunion at
Lincoln , which commenced on Monduy end
ended last night. The thousands of veterans
and their frlo ds xvho xvoro In attendance
enjoyed themselves hugely throughout the
six days. They have but one kick coming
pr.nl that xvas that an attempt xvas made
to transform the reunion Into a school for
the Inculcation of free silver and popultsllc
doc'-rlncs ,
The chairman of the local committee ol
Lincoln that had the matter ! u charge xvaii
Colonel Pace , a populist. In arranging the
programs for the campflres Colonel Pace
end the committee eaxv to It that only
free silver men xvero given a chance to talk ,
Among thu speakers xxero Congressman
Stark , Congressman Greene , W. J. Uryan ,
and Senator Allen. To be sure some promi
nent republicans xverc placed on the pro
gram , but ccily such xx-cro selected as could
not be present. As a consequence , the old
soldiers had no choice but to listen to frco
sliver men ,
This created a whole lot of dlssatlsfac-
tlcn among the 1,000 or 1,500 veterans xxho
xvcre In attendance , but they got around
the dllllculty by not attending the camp-
fires. In place of attending they got up
little campfircs of their own at tjc ( state
headquarters and there enjoyed themselves
by listening to speakers of their oxvn selec
tion. The scheduled campflres came off , but
they xvere ti ly attended by the people of free
silver sympathies , xvho accompanied the sol
diers to the reunion.
The reunion xvas attended by a good many
thousand people , mony of whom camped
out. Nearly all of the old soldlera took part
In the parade of Friday. In connection xvlth
this parade xvas a very pretty feature a liv
ing American Hag , made up by 2,000 school
children attired 'n costumes of the colors.

xvork of the grand lodge , and for meritorious
services xvas made a past grand chancellor
of the ordor. He xvas always loyal and

fearlessly outspoken and steadfast In support
of xvnat he believed to" " be right , and uncom
promising and relentless In his warfare on
xvhat ho believed to bo xvrong. Ho was very
decided and outspoken In hla Ilkca and dis
likes , and was at all times equally ready
to defend a friend or fae < i an enemy. As a
merchant he xvaa trusted and respected by
all xvho knew and dealt xvlth him. Ho xvas
scrupulously honest and truthful , faithful to
all l\'ji engagements and prompt and ener

DETROIT , Sept. 18. The deep xvatcrxvaj

Atlantic has selected permanent headquar
ters In this city. The three members o
the commission , Alfred Noble"of Chicago ,
George Y. WU'tier of Detroit and Major Ray
mond. U. S. A. , have just completed a
thnrouEh reconnaisFance of the region be
txveen Toniwauda and Lake Port , N. Y. , In
order to determine the routes to be fitir-
vcyed In that locality. The present com
mission is directed to survey routes recom
mended by the first deep watorxxny commis
sion. C. N. Harrison of Chicago has charge
of the surveying party In the field.
Mr. Wlsner said today : "It Is most
probable that Tonaxvanda xvlll be one ter
minus of the ship canal. Niagara river
can be qultn readllji Improved to that point ,
and there tt'o a good many practical reasons
for the s"lectlon.
"The most Important prcblcm Is to devise
some xvay of regulating the lake levels to
prevent the great fluctuations xvhlch have
been observed In them. Colonel O. J.
Lydecker has como to our aid In that mat
ter by lending us the surveys of B. K. Has-
chell of his corps of engineers at the Haulto ,
xvho went to Tonawanda yesterday to spend
the next txvo months determining the vol
ume of water discharged through the Ni
agara river. Mr. liaschell Is an expert on
such matters. I am convinced that the
regulation of lake levels Is feasible and
that equilibrium at a point below the maxi
mum elevation can bo maintained.
"The depth of xvater to bo maintained In
the deep xvater channel Is a matter not yet
decided. There arc a mtiltlpllolty of con
siderations , The cxpciibo of building to
twonty-flvo feet over the cost of txventy feet ,
compared ] xvlth the advantages to commerce ,
must bo carefully weighed. "
