PROA I SICE OF SHAATTIfO.
The Cities and Touqi Dftvrren Pe

(Copyright, 1900, by G. M. Walker.)
Washington, July 13 —The Chinese pro
vince of Shantung, the home of the Box
ers, If, in fact a great ieland. Long be
fore the cons:ruction of the Grand Canal
cut it entirely off from the main land, the
Great Yellow' River (Hoang Ho) rushed
out of the western mountains and spilt
itself against the rocky hills of Shantung,
dividing the waters. One half flowed
north to empty inlo the Gulf of Pel Chill,
while the other half turned south into the
Yellow Sea. Earlier than this the sea it
self had covered the low’lands, but the de
posits of silt borne down from the
rich plateaus of Bhensl and Shansi by the
river have graduaiy forced the salt watres
back.
The locaticai, soil and climate of Shan
tung have been singularly adapted to the
development of a sturdy and virile race,
and the province has been noted as the
home of China’s greatest warriors end
ages. The tomb of Confucius, within its
borders, is the meroa of all educated
Chinamen. The province has also been
noted as the place of origin of nearly all
of China's great secret societies, and it
has long b**en notorlus for revolts and se
ditions. It Is not at all surprising, when
you know the character of the people and
their history, that the Boxer movement
started in Bbantung.
In the eastern part of the province up
in the mountains which part the waters
of the Huang Ho. lies the prosperous vil
lage of Fai-Cheng, rear which the Box
ers murdered Dr. Brooks early this spring,
at the beginning of this year's anti-foreign
movement. The Boxers were originally
organized to protect themselves from a
band of outlaws who were In the habit
of plundering them occasionally, bu-t, as
usual, with such associations In China,
they soon found it more profitable to join
hands with their plunderers and to ex
tend their operations.
Plunder flic Original Motive.
There can be no doubt that the chief
motive at the beginning of the present
demonstration was the hope of rich plun
der ir> the great province of Pel-Chill,
whi h lies north across the marshy plains
of the Yellow river. The political com
plexion of the movement has been supplied
by those who, like many earlier Chinese
Intriguers who have simply used the al
ready organized secret society to accom
plish their purposes. It will not do to
believe too much of wbat Is told of the
rabid anti-foreign sentiment among the
Boxers. At Tal-an, right in the heart of
their home country, for over twenty year*,
a most successful mission has been main
tained and one of their largest native
congregations is In the village of FWi-
Chong before mentioned. Neither the
missionaries nor the native Christiana at
these points were disturbed.
It seems strange if the Boxers were
starting out oo a mission of extermina
tion that they did not begin with the
foreigners nearest at hand, or why, if they
had overlooked these, that they should at
tempt to force a difficult passage north
across the flats and marshes Instead of
attacking the treaty port of Chlfoo or the
German settlement at Kiao-Chou, both of
which were near and easy to reach. After
leaving their province, the first point the
Boxers struck was Chon-ting-fu, a large
city lying at the foot of the mountains
near the western boundary of Pel-Chili.
Cheng-ting-fu Is an old city and has one
of the finest ancient temples to he found
In China with an Immense bronze Buddha,
over sixty feet high. The Catholics here
have a' large mission, claiming over SQ.OOO
converts, and a fine cathedral. When the
Boxers attempted to loot it, a pitched bat
tle occurred with the native Christians In
which the Boxers were beaten with a loss
of seventy killed. The Catholics claim a
million converts all told in China. Ad
vancing northeast about fifty miles, the
Boxers reached I’ang-ting-fu. the capital
of the province, which lies about eighty
miles southwest of lVkin. and almost 100
miles due west of Hen Tsin, with which
It is connected by river. Pang-ting-fu was
the present terminus of the Luhen Rail
roud, being built by the Belgian syndicate
from Peking southwest to Han-kow, a dis
tance of about 800 miles. At Pang-Ung-fu
the Boxers Ignored the presence of a
large ledy of American missionaries, hut
attacked the party of Belgian engineers
engaged on the road, and pursued them
when they attempted to escape* down the
river to Tien Tsin, finally curling off and
killing several of the party.
Points About Tien Tsin.
To this point the Boxers held their
forces together, but here they separated,
part of them following the railroad as it
skirted the foothills at the western edge
of the plain toward the capital at Pekin,
while the others struck east across the
plain toward Tien Tsin. Tien Tsin. the
great port of North China, has the larg
est foreign population of any Chinese city
except Shanghai. Tien Tsin lies on the
western bank of the Pel Ho, or North
river, at Its Junction with the Grand
canal, about thirty mile* from the coast.
The population of the native city Is usual
ly given as about 1,000,000, but If the su
burbs and river population, which really
belong to It, are Included. It will be found
to be nearer 2,000.000. The Fekln-Tlen
Tsin Railroad, which runs from the
mouth of the river up to the
capital, passes Tien Tsin on the
opposite aide of the river, and does not
cross the Pel Ho until It reaches Yang
taun. about eighteen miles above Tsin
Tsin. It was the destruction of the bridge
at this point which prevented the rein
forcement* .from reaching the relieving
foxes that stopped *4 Lar, gt ang, about

frequently mentioned in the dispatches,
is really of no importance except as be
ing the junction of the Pekin-T:en Tsln
Railroad with the branch to Pau-ting-fu.
It was formerly the terminus of the main
lines, though it was almost five miles
from th walls of the capital city, but
afterward, by strategy, the Empress was
induced to “order'' it built up to the city.
The foreign settlement at Tien Tsin lies
a distance south of the native city and Is
protected by a heavy wall of earthworks
with a ditch outside.
“Smothering” Foreign Intruders.
Tb.e Chinese are a peculiar people and
have peculiar ways of putting down their
r,':rrv-r' u local insurrections Thev never
oppose such movements while they are
gaining strength. They put up only a
passive resistance until the movement has
spent its strength and shows signs of col
lapse Then they jump on it with vigor.
It is because of this absence of active, re
sistance that China has repeatedly been
conquered by smail armies and by smiJl
nations. The Powers must not conclude
from this, however, that the partition of
China will be a pimple matter.
The Chinese are largely indifferent ns to
the figureheads who occupy the throne—
but the persia'ency of their race charac
teristics are remarkable. They know that
they are helpless before their foreign
foes, because, gigan'i< as their resources
are, they ere unable to marshal them

When they ©re invaded th©y only a
feeble resistance, but once the Intruders
ere well wuhln the country, the Chinese
pople imply ©warm ar.d “smother" them.
They are The greatest amalgamators the
world has ever seen They have grown by
lelr.z or.quered. The Mongols under the
great Kulai invaded them and usurped
the sovereignty, but a short century suf
ficed for the Chinese to absorb their con
querors ©nd to make their country trib
utary to the dragon throne. Still later the
Menchus conquered China and seized the
reigns of government, but they. too. have
been engulfed in the rising tide of black
haired men, and their country
made Into a province. Neither shall
the modern invader© of China es
cap© a like fate. While preser.t conditions
prevail there the sphere© of influence
claimed by the several Powers would
doubtless fall an easy prey to th© Pow
ers claim:r.g them, but when they have
supplied tr.e Empire with modem facili
ties for transportation, then will the Chi
ne ss i jtne into tneir own ©rain and his
tory repeat Pse-lf. The Cnireman will ab
sorb the outsiders, and if they be not
separated from him by too wide a sea, he
will add to his empire. Within Us
borders already dwell one-third of the ©r>-
tire human, race. Its half billion of popu
lation promises a trade that is recognized
as thf* grand prize of future commerce.
All other markets fade into insignificance
beside it. It is not strange, therefore, that
the Powers have been striving by threats
and coercion to bring it under their con
trol and that they heve jealously watched
each other while seeking to secure addi
tional concessions for themselves and to
ei.laree- th*ir own spheres of influence. On©
reason that the Chinese government ha*
apparently favored the demonstration of
the Boxers is that it has been hoped that
it might afford an opportunity for re
pudiating some of the concession© that
been granted to foreigners in recent
years. The common people In China are
'-©b e ar.d hospitable and not opposed
to the introduction of modern inventions.
It is a Fight never to be forgotten to see
a trainload of Chinese riding second class
on open fiat cars. As the train goes faster
their queues fly out behind while they
hold onto their hats and shout and laugh
as if it were the greatest sport in the
world.
YELLOW-SKIXXEJ) MONGOLS.
How the Spnniith Authorities Vainly
Tried to Control Chinese Immi
gration to the Philippine Islands.
(Copyright, 1900, by F. A. Flower.)
Washington, July 14—The protest/* of
Wu. the Chinese minister at Washington,
against extending the provision of the
Chinese exclusion law’s of the United
States to the Philippine Islands are ex
traordinarily interesting when considered
in connection with the bloody history of
the Mongolian invasions of the archipela
go.
This swarm of 2.000 wonderfully fertile
islands was discovered by Magellan in
1521 and very soon after came under the
control of Spaiik Attracted by its many
beautiful streams of w’a.ter, its soft climate
and its productive soil, the Chinese follow
ed the Spanish into the islands in great
numbers and began at once to crowd out
the other inhabitants. After struggling
heroically, but unsuccessfully, against in
dustrial destruction, the Spanish colonists
obtained a royal decree or mandate ban
ishing the Chinese. The Mongolians re
sisted Its enforcement, and in 1603 about
255000 of them were slain.
Undaunted by this fearful slaughter, the
places of the dead were practically filled
In two pears by newcomers, and in 1005
the Spanish government decreed that Chi
nese to the number of only might re
side in. the Philippines; that each resident
should pay a special tax of $8 per year,
and that none should be allowed to follow
any occupation save that of tilling the
soil. To these conditions the Chinese as
sented without demur. They went forward
in their operations, however, precisely as
if no condition had been made. In
twenty-five years 30,000 new immigrants
had Infested the most favored spots in the
islands, and in 1830 they were again order
ed to leave or suffer death. About 7,000
of them obeyed the decree, but 33.000 de
fied It and they were slaughtered.
Massacre After Massacre.
Instead of checking immigration, this
appalling massacre seemed to augment
the flood tide of Mongolian immigration,
and in twenty years the Chinese had be
come so strong that they threatened to
wipe out the Spanish Insular government
and establish one of their own In its ttead.
Again they were ordered to leave the
island-*, nnd again defying the mandate,
were slain to the last man.
In 1875 the Spanish government sent a
special envoy to the Philippines to ex
amine into the Chinese problem., and his
report is probably as able as anything
ever published on that eubjeot. He de
clared that the Chinese were irreclaim
able and utterly refused to assimilate
with other people After describing them
and their methods in the islands, he con
cluded:
“They Impoverish the country’, glean
ing everywhere and forwarding their
savings to China They undermine and
nun all labor because they live on less
and .hence work for less t>han our (Span
ish) people, and then follow their earn
ings to China, thus making room for still
more hungry swarms, which settle among
u.’’
This report so aroused the government
that more energetic measures of exclu
sion were enforced, but without much
success, since in 1709 the Chinese had
again become so numerous, arrogant and
oppressive that an uprising resulted In
their comple'o extermination. Not In the
least “feezed,” they Instantly renewed
immigration from the fatherland and by
1759 had become more numerous than
ever. The Spanish government ordered
them to leave, giving them but a short
period in which to do so or be hanged
en masse, so to speak. Remembering the
bloody visitations of the past, many
thousands returned to China; the re
mainder were executed.
Extermination Did Not Exterminate.
The stench of this great killing was
hardly clear from the. air before this
strangely persistent race began again,
like rats, to stealthily overrun the Islands,
and by 1776 had become to numerous that
the Incumbent viceroy decreed that ev
ery Chinaman found on Philippine soil
on a certain day should be executed, and
this decree was carried out to the letter.
In 1819. having again become intolerabie,
by their numbers and methods, once
again every Chinese that could be found
In the Philippine* was massacred.
As extermination did not exterminate,
ami as the burden of recurrent slaughters
wan, growing too vast and too wearisome
for the government, a system of extremely
onerous and burdensome taxes was de
vised and pressed upon the Chinese with
relentless severity. This, however, proved
to be ns ineffectual as wholesale killing,
and the Chinese, now outnumbering all
European Inhabitants more than five to
one. praetleally control the trade and bus
iness of the 2.don benutiful islands, and,
of course, cannot be dislodged by ordinary
methods.
Persistence of t/ie character thus dis
closed. In the face of punishment too ter
rible to be adequately described In words,
Is unmatched In the history of the world.
It Is Inherent In the people possessing
more than 60,000,000 of surplus population
and whose blighting Immigrations have
been controlled successfully by no govern
ment except that of the United States.
Can this rontrol be executed In the
Philippines by the United States? Yes.
By the native Filipinos? Never.

men ore Pharisees when it comes to their
own domestic grievances Pharisees
thanking Providence in their hearts that
whatever may come to them, they are
at least sparod the mortifications that fall
to the lot of certain other women they
know.
If you doubt this assertion, toko your
sewing and make a round of visits in
the neighborhood as I did one morning
recently. Mrs. Jones of the tricky hus
band was the first one I called upon. Her
home was luxuriously and artistically fur
nished; it had the air of material com
forts; Mrs. Jones greeted me In gor
geously embroidered kimona. She is a
worldly woman and although the things
she has found out through some lawsuit
In which her husband was proved a ras
cal. have furrowed hard lines of cynicism
and distrust in her Ace, there beams
above and beyond this expression one of
material comfort and abounding self-sat
isfaction.
I admired the kimona. She smHed with
gratified vanity. "Yes," I think Its a
beauty, Tom bought it for me on his
last trip from Japan.”
I think Just here Mrs. Jones saw In
my eyes speculation as to what sort of
a underhand business venture had taken
Tom to that country, for she said, with
a quick flash of comprehension, “I de
clare—Tom 1s the best fellow In the world
to his family, so generous, so consider
ate. He loves me to have handsomer
elothen than any other woman, and as
for bilis, he never fusses about them. Did
I tell you he has Just given Mabel a
diamond necklace?"
"No.” I replied.
"Well, he did. You know she has her
coming-out party this winter and she wms
crazy for one; diamond necklaces are so
swell for debutantes.”
"It is lovely,” I said, "for her to have
such a generous father.”
“Yes," agreed Mrs. Jones complacently.
"I tell you a woman can stand a lot of
shortcomings In a man. She has to put up
at least with some dreadful fault when
she marries, but I think I could endure
anything better than selfishness and stlng
iless. If a man is open-handed and gen
erous- to his famly, other things can be
forgiven. They will be human, you
know.”
Her hard lips gave a cold, comprehen
sive cynical twitch. Then, she looked
down at her glittering rings with a smile
of cheerful complacency. ‘'Why," she
went on, "there are some things a woman
Just can't endure. Look at Mary Smith
next door. Now% if I had a husband like
Fred Smith, I'd have deserted him long
ago. He Is what people call high-toned
In a way, but I don't call it honorable for
a man to live like the lilies of the field,
to dress immaculately, and spend every bit
of the little Inc'ome he has on his blessed
self, leaving a wife to struggle and
skimp out an existence any way she can
for herself and a lot of children. That’s
not my Idea of honor."
"Nor mine, either," I agre< and. And then,
after a bit of mere chat, I betook myaelf
next door to see what Fred Smith's wife
had to say about it. I found her darning
beside a basket of stockings that must
have eeemed aa hopeless as the sea did

and offered me a cordial greeting. Her face
was worn and pinched, her gown out at
elbows; the room was bare and comfort
less.
“I have just been over to Mrs. Jones.”
I said. “She wore a gorgeous kimona Tom
brought her from Japan.*’
Mrs. Smith s lips curled into a smile of
amused derision, “How can a woman ac
cept anything from such a man?” she
asked. Impatient disgust* in her voice.
‘‘Why, how can she live with him? Of
course, she knows we all know she knows.
Why, she doesn’t deserve any more re
spect than he does ”
“She fet ms to think he’s all right,” I
said.
‘‘Oh. that's a pretense,”—confidently
and with some degree of satisfaction—
‘‘She can’t he happy with him.”
"He has just given. Mabel a diamond
necklace,” I answered.
‘‘Wall, I can’t have anv respect for
either Mabel r r her mottw-r. Why”—her
eves blazed and I knew she was in earn
est—“l can understand a woman's endur
ing a lot in a man, all w omen must endure
something more or lss, hut to have him
an unmitigated sharper like Tom Jones—
that endurance is beyond me.”
‘‘You think you’d get a divorce?” I
asked.
“Certainly,” she answered. ”AII the
money in the world would not keep me
tied to a man like that. Anything but
that.”
Her eyes fell on the basket of bulging
stockings and her face flushed a bit. "Of
course." she said rather haughtily, as if I
had spoken, "Men are not perfect. Some
have been accustomed to more indulgence
than others; one has to concede in mar
riage to one's husband's peculiarities. He
may have flagrant faults, but if he Is up
right, man to man, in his business deal
ings. why, that fact makes up for all
foibles."
I gasoed, I knew It would be this way,
and yet It had turned out so absurdly true
that the experiment gave me an amused
and also a guilty feeling. I felt as If I
had lived long with both these women
through their algolher different marital
experiences, and as If I could see and un
derstand the point of view of each. "What
infinite solace we find." T thought to my
self "In the domestic miseries of our
neighbors."
My thory became a rock of adamant
when I had talked wt h the woman who-e
husband gambled t mast of the time and
was never at home, day or night. She
spoke with peculiar bitterness of a med
dling man In the house, and simply
wou'dn't stand It. The woman whose hus
band loafed at home and bossed, said
give her anything on .earth but a gadding
husband; that no matter how much a
man fussed around his own fireside, a
oflfe felt much more comfortable to have
him there. Bhe knew when he wssnot get
ting in mischief somewhere else.
To cap the climax, on th# very day these
oonversations occurred, I caned upon Ua
ra. my washerwoman, and found her
with her head tied up.
"Pa hit ’er,” said one of the black imps
by the wash-pot
‘Shet yo mouf. Jinny.” interrupted the
woman. Then turning to me, “An’ s'pose
he did, ’ she added, defensively. * Some
men folks dey get all-firei mad all ter
onct, but dat ain’t no sign dey gwine to
sulk ’toun de house all de time. Epsie's
nigger, he nebber hit her no time, but he
dat grumpy all de time dat be seem lak
he gittin 'ligion. He sulk and sulk and
nehber give out a pl asant word. Dese
chillun’s pa. he git savigrous, but most
de time he Jokin and makin us all laugh.
Den, my Gawd, ve know. Miss, if a, man
don gi mad at yer an wnnter kill yer
now’ an den. hit's er shure sign he ain got
no sho nuff lub fer yer ” All of which
goes to prove tha the wife in hard luck
cares very little for sympathy. High or
low\ the unhappily married woman can
usually find abundant solace in the short
comings of husbands not her own.
