THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, TUESDAY, AUGUST 19rn, 1913.

"THE CHINAMAN'S FRIEND." The newly-elected President of the Wesleyan Conference, the Rev. S. F Collier, is known as the Chinaman's friend," because of his active interest in the Chinese colony in Manchester. There are some three hundred Chinese in that eity of cotton activities, and these Mr. Collier has made his special enre, giving them all the eneguragement possible to assimilate Western ideas. Most of them are laundrymen nud, judging by the appocrates of the crowd of them which gathers every Sunday at the Albert Hall to hear Mr. Collier, they find the northern atmosphere conducive to happiness and prosperity. They are for the most part, young men of eighteen to twenty-five years: of age, who are eager to learn English. especially as no strenuous efforts. AM employed to make them adopt Christianity. Since the revolution, I am told, a very distinct change has unic ever these Chinese, Their national pride has been awakord; they are less shy and they druss with

greater smartness. The mission conducted by Mr. Collier has hadi powerful results in the mintter of hygiene. From time to time the minister or his assistants are invited to tes by an Oriental laundryman, and usually on the first occasion they find the surroundings far from clean. They invite the Chinese in return, and when he is with them he can be seen closely watching the preparations for tea and the details of the household management. Then there is a further invitation to visit him, and on that second occasion the Chines habitation leaves nothing to be desired in the matter of order and cleanliness. Most of them are Cantonese, Their existence is lonely, for they are without their womenfolk-hence the existence of numerous gambling dens and other undesirable haunts, where they amuse themselves according to their fashion. They fortunately have no feuds

among them such as exist in several American citits, and they are said to be entirely united

on the side of the Southern army in the present crisis in China.
