THE CHINA MAIL.

THE CULTIVATED DOWAGER.

A lively account of the personality of the Dowager Empresa of China is given by an American writer, who, howover, fails to state his authority for some of his facte. The Empress, we are told, is a painter (of) fans) and a poet, bubahove all things sho is a polished conversationalist. "Her rhetoric accorda strictly with the nicoet

(BITST BISH 00.) COAL DEPARTMENT meaning of the syllabic lisalf determining what is to be said, and what it shall signify after it is said. There is an otiquotto of attitude in this mysterious mattor likewise. Simply to listen to Tsi Hau, therefore, is to the literati to enjoy the greatest intellectual treat their world affords. She nay be said to cease, for the lime being, to speak in the character of Empress Dowager, and to become the first citizen in a republic of lotters so finely governed that no Western mind can make head or tail of it,"

for the current year. Up to the end of xion about the foreign trade of the country

July the trafu aggregated Y543,110,000, being 80 millions in round figures greater than the corresponding total for last year, Among the exports which went to make up this sum, it is noticeable that silk and copper wero responsible for an increnso of 20 millions, Turning to impacts thoir totμl for the period under review was Y305,000,000, being an increase of 62 millions as compared with leat year, which increase was mainly do to largo purchases of raw cotion, irou, and machinery. It appears from the above that the excess of imports during the first seven months of the year ishs 68 million yen. Last year the same period showed aures- cess of 40 raillions. This, however, was not only balanced by the excess of exports in the concluding five months of the your trut also the final showing was a surplus of 5. millions on the side of exports. It is not thought prolable, by the Rokumin's" informant, as we learn from a translation in the "Japan Mail," that the balance of trade will be quite so favourable this year, but even supposing that exports and imports., are equal the record will be unprecedentelis prosperous.

FROM PEKING."

Prince Borghese's Encounter with a Policeman:

Describing the pouultimate day of the | Peking to Paris motor race, the Tele- graph's correspondent with Prince Bor- ghese eye-

Our entry into Belgiura was somewhat humorous episode. We were regarded na extremely conical beings, on A most eccentric machine. Our faces, covered with black dust, and our ragged clothes. seemed to ho supremely ridicolous.

Al Verviers nestout tradesman, seated outside his little shop, cried, on seeing us, Oh the frights! And a little later a carter, with eren deeper convictions, shout ed, "Oh the frights 1" and stopped his cart in order to get a better look at us.

It might be mid that this exclamation now sort of salute, for we heard it on every side, and there could be no doubt as to its sincerity. Everybody stopped, looked, and laughed as though they had soon a comic masquerade.

W2E

A policeman, rendered suspicious by our strange appearance, stoppet us, and asked Prince Borghese, Who are you?"

Receiving a reply, to assumed a terrible air and shouted severely, Youa priuce! That is not true. You are Folgian chauffent and are breaking the law, be- cause you are going too fast. You know the regolutions-ten kilometres an hour." Prince Borghese, cool as ever, insists and the policeman asks for his papers.

They are not yours," the man exclaims gruffly. You are a chauffeur. Why do you try to pass as a prince in that costume ?"

"Chacun gagne son pain commeil pout." "Where do you come from?!!

From Poking.

That reply seed to enlighten the policaman, who at last understood. Bo resumed an attitude of profund regret, and in an obsequious voico exclaimed:
