At that time Mr. Edward Robinion, the director of the Boston Museum, was asked to accept the position of assistant director, and in all probability he will be my successor. I soon found that the museum required additional space; in fact, space was wanted more than objects of art. New wings were accordingly added, and I introduced a section of medioral and eighteenth-century foraltore and woodwork. This was so popular that Mr. Morgan purchased in Paris and pre

"Mr Schwab's idea in meeting the Prince is to welcome to this country, the head of the Naval Department of the Chinese Government and to affer him every oportunity to view his shipyards, which is one of the objects of the Prince's visit. Naturally Mr. Schwab wants the Prince to know that he is in a position to sup ply vessels or materials that the Chinese Goy erament might win, so that his company would not be overlooked in the event that bide ›were called for,"

The most amused person af all over the battleship story was Yong Kwal, secretary of the Chinesa Legation at Washington. He bara fice score of home: f om the Occidental point of view, and the idea that his country would go out and buy a flock of battleships, as ope would devour a chop suey convulsed him with merrin oal,

After expatiating on the greatness of the American people, as exemplified by ils press, which, in a single tight and with no other material than the smoke could build an entire fet of battleships, Yang Kwai said:

"I don't even know that China has adopted a policy of naval expansion, ner do I know that Prisce Teal is authorized to contract for say battleships. Those things are Landled in my coun ry very much as they are in years. As impstal edici authorizing the appropriation is required, and specifications, bide and contracts are required. Mr. Echwab is doubtless coming | here in extend a welcome to the Prince, and offer kim such courtesies as may lie in his poter. The story of the battleships is the pure ∙cesjecture of a vivid imaglustion."

Evidently Yang Kwai dislikes short and nglier words, but he left no doubt of his mean. ing.

In several departments the Retropolitan Museum is unequalled by any musenm in the world, principally in Oriental porcelain. The mascam, already porrasting a good collection, was strengthened by the purchase of the Garland collection in New York, which was the largest collection in the world. Mr. Pierpont Morgan, who bought the collection and lent it to be muzeum, has bought so much that no one would like to ask him to give any more.
