Lord Charles lleiesford was In Pekln In

Chlng seemed much Impressed with Ileres

strengthen China to resist disintegration
and protect commerce. While he feared
that the centralization of the nrtny nnd tho
abolition nf the prnvlnclnl system would be
too radical an Innovation on long custom to
be prnctlcnble, Prince Chlng, ns the result
of his visitors advice, arranged for tho Im

promised further to consider thn situation.

atice of every member of the party, since

tube luncheon with lilm. An Invitation was
telegraphed down the line mid the party

guests were sealed on the porch when
luncheon was announced, and all arose to
enter the house.
Just as Kussell Sage was about to pass
through the door a large blue bottlo Ily
biizeil around the open door. Mr. Sago
backed out.
"Mrs. Dike," said Mr. Sage to his host'H
wife, "I can't go In there now; I will lunch
out here, If you have no objections."
"Why, what In tho world Is the matter?"
exclaimed Mrs. Dike, fearing he had tnken
a dislike to some of her arrangements.
"Didn't you see that Ily?" said the Wall
