foreigners disconcerted his plans, but only for a time. He retired for a month to a monastery in the morntains. Now that the fear of the foreigner has again subsided, the grandilo- quent old brigand General enjoys the favour of the Dowager as before. He is securely settled at Kuyuan the headquarters of his old army,

WANG WEN-SHAO; THE SUCCESSOR TO LI

5 .HỬNG GHAN

Every outsider, like the Chinese themselves. will naturally compure and contrast Wang Wên-shao with his illustrious predecessor. Com. parison there is none. The contrast is striking. Li lung-chang was a man of strong deter mination, fearless in address, and of keen, almist intuitive perspicacity. Wang on the other hand is rather weak in will, timid ́in dis-

position, and rather dell in apprclicasion, He is a safe man who, more than any living Chinese statesinan, tried to maintain the golden, mean. His career cannot be called brilliant like that of Yuan Shilk'ai, nor eminent like that of Liu

K'un-yi. Wang's character can best be describe ed negatively. He has more of that insuffera ble pride so common to his class and country,

NONE OF THAT ḤRAG AND TALL TALK so common with those officials who speak and say nothing. Previous to his appointment to the Viceroyship of Chibli in '95, he was com paratively unknown to foreigners,

It was 'difficult for one of his disposition to hold the reins of office denitted by a man of the stamp of Li" It was declared in the capital that

he did not understand and could not admins ler foreign affairs. Nevertheles he was summoned to Peking and appointed men ber of the Tsungli Yamea and adraihistrator of Mines and Railways. In the "Board of Bluff he won the respect of the foreign ambas- sadors, by his untailing courtesy, and absence of abhorrent bluster and obsequious flattery. When the Boxer movement was taken up) by the Government and most of the officials- excepling the two Hsu and Yuan, who were beheaded for speaking their minds-fell in line with the infatuated Princes and Kang Yi, Wang remained neutral. He would not commit him self to either side. He was not able to main-

tain his neutrality in Hsiaufu. There Lu Ch'uanlin took active measures to have Wang removed. Employing a Hanlin, named Usia Chen-wu, Lu got a memorial sent in 19 the- throne asserting that

THE ONLY WAY TO REGAIN-AUTONOMY,

Peking, and selrespect, was to behead Wang Wen-shao. He was merely the tool of Li Hung-chang in his reform schemes and of Chang Chili-tung in educational proposals. The imperial rescript denounced the memor- ialist and pointed out that Wang was a slates- mun indispensable to the Government. A good example of the disposition of Wang is seen in the attitude he took when asked what he intant to do with Hsia, who had unsuccessfully recom. inended decapitation. “A man of such ignorance, replied Wang, "is not worth notice." Like Li Hung-chang, Wang Wen-sho has aged considerably during the last two years. His hair is now snowy white and his back bont with the burdens of State May he enjoy the fruits of an upright life and the reward of an honourable carear,

YUNG LU: THE TAKTAR AUTOCKÁT. A few years ago an able and intelligent Manchu sent a circular futer to all bis fellow- countrymen in China. The thesis was this :--- The Tartars must either be educated or ceasc to be Enlightenment or extermination ait

the only alternatives. When it is known that a typical Tartar boy acquires only four arts archery, shuttle-cock, cockfighting, and bird keeping, most will agree with the prophecy of Fu-shou's letter. "The best blood by learning is refined," yet it is as notorious as lamentable, that the majority of the Imperial Princes and

THE MOUNTAIN FEVER.

"What you fellows want,” said the Major benevolently, "is a man of some small ex- perience to see you don't do anything fool. hardy or run anuecessaly risks. I am a bit rusty myself; I haven't done mucis climbing since

did the Jungfrau in eighty-some years ago; but I don't mind, if you care .... ".

We fellows were loud in our gratitude. For on the Doctor, the Undergraduate, and 'the Scribe bad fallen the "mountain fever." It is a sickness that overtakes, most. Englishmen who spend their holidays in the Alps. The Brst symptoms are a restlessness and discontent in the peaceful, smiling valleys which before had been alb-satisfying. It drives its victims to climb the casler heights, from whose sum- mits there are brief glimpses of cloud. shadows trailing ghostlike,over spotless snowfields torn by the black teeth of the topmost trests, remote, aloof, majestic. Of nights its discomfons are an itching to switch the conversation of smok ing-room to tales of mountaineering-and nowhere in the Alps is it difficult-of toilsome

ascents over treacherous snowfields, of the

brief moments of triumph on the summit, of breathless descents down faint tracks where a slip meant death. The early symptoms of "mountain ferer" are casy of diagnosis, Later on the sickness leads men and women, lacking all equipment to assail à giant where they should, for their education's sake, be

respectful to the least of his satellites, and has over and over again furnished material for a paragraph arient foolhardiness of the British tourist. llut the rare accident should not be ac counted fool hardiness, perversity, or insularself- sufficiency. It is simply the toll that "moun. ain fever" exacts from its victims: There is no room to scoff Until the fever has entered into your own veins and has left you tossing abed of nights you have no idea of its virulence.

At Ischi the sickness overtook us. Hitherto we, ton, bad scoffed, had sought peace and ensured it by the placid shores of forest-bowered lakes, and had taken delight in funicular rail ways. There is reason to believe that they inculcate the mountain fever" of malice prepense at Ischl. is there the wayfarer catches his first glimpse of the distant Dachstein, a giant second only to the (lockner in the Eastern Alps. It does not make itself cheap as do other, mountains, It suffers no easy familiarity from windows of an hotel.or a bench on the

the

promenade. Who would see the Dachstein must sock it. All the pleasant hills that sen tine! Ischt herald its majesty. On every hand there is the Dachstein peep, the Dachstein view, the Dachstein glimpse, until the Dachstein' is never out of its victims thoughts. At times from these points of vantage, far beyond the rolling billows of intervening hills, rises a 'black pyramid of granite crowned in stainless snow, rising sheer against the dome of heaven, crested by three sharp fangs of rock at others through'a rift in the swirling mist there is a gleam of distant glaciers or the strange image of a jagged peak rising as an is land from a sea of cloud. However seen,

the Dachstein is inaccessible, forbidding, majestic. In one of these shrines to its honour the incitement of inflammatory verse is super-

added. The poet bids the wayfarer take off his hat to the last haunt of the trembling chamois, to the home of the avalanche, to the dread eyrie of the lonely eagle, and so on. There was a lot more in the same strain. The Dector's translation of the apostrophe sealed our fate. Having endured that the mountain itself lost its terrors.

The sense of our unfitness and inexperience oppressed us. Then we fell in with the Major. He had graduated, we gathered, as a moun taineer in the Swiss Alps, Our callow zeal be proposed to temper by the weight of his ex- perience and mountain-craft. Therefore we accepted his offer with grateful acclamation. Leave it all to me," said the Major. "Only see to the nails-heavy, filed nails-in your boots.

No man goes out with me with oul nails. Also get alpenstacks. None of

your machine-made things that is often. as not soap like a rotten carrot when it

comes to the pinch, but the seasoned eight- foot hazelwood sticks the peasantry carry,"

THE RUDIMENTS OF EDUCATION. Yung Lu is a conspicuous example. His ignorance has earned for him the nickname of Yung Lu-Simple Simon." This high Minis ter of State first came into proininence with the rise of the Reform Party. The drastic edicts of '97-8 cashiering so many, useless offi- cials roused the wrath of many of the Tarlars. The dissatisfied clansmen at once put forward Yung Lu to take up their cause and especially to work the oracle with the Dowager. All the world knows the result-the coup d'état of '98, the compulsory abdication and imprison- ment of Kuang Hsü, the Domination of Ta-a-ko as Crown Prince, the, murder of the lenders of Reform, the resumption of power of by the Alpine Club, and a porter guaranteed NAVY CONTRACTORS, GENERAL by the Dowager, and the supremacy of the anti-sound.

Only exterminate those in China and we shall see no more of the tribe, “Mich chu yang: Ju chih chang?" It is as, easy to exterminate foreigners as to point to your palm. So dictated by Yung Lu, edicts were issued for the compulsory drilling of all the people that countless hosts might be ready at the call of the Throne. The movement was neither of the people, by the people, nor for the people. It was begun, organised, and supported by the Govorament with a design of exterminating all foreigners of what- ever class, creed, or country, For the three lifted up his voice and mocked. years preceding the capture of Peking by the Allies, Yong Lu was the autocrat of the Em- "Are you fellows honestly going to attempt: pire.
