Objects of His Mission.

The visit of Mr. Chu Chih- chien for the purpose of present- ing to the Emperor of Japan. Proaidact Hea's message has been mads a subject of editorial com mant by many varnzoplar papers. A digast of some of these is givan bilow:

real object of Mr. Chu's mission K.604 & to Europe and America was for the K.622. purpose of acquaintine the worldol the real character of China's civilization, so that China's pori- tion in the family of nations may be elevated If this is really so believe that it is so the agitation by the Chinese students is entire- ly uncalled-for as Mr. Chu's mission is not of a political character.
