The worshiper of Buddha grew tired of ,.cUmblag, jostling and the noite of the elevated railroad, which blocks the windows of his house of worship, and two years age took counsel as hew te avoid all troubles and secure new quarters. After the long jpow-wews and co-epcrativo work which characterise every Chinese transaction, a syndicate was formed and the double let at Ne. 18 Mett street purchased for $25,000. The buildings en the property contained many tenants who had yearly leases, and who refused te vacate before their terms expired unless ptfid exorbitant prices. The Mongolian magnates there fore decided te wait until May 1. and then took advantage of the landlord and tenant law te Immediately dispossess the tenants who had tried te make money out of the occasion. The old buildings, which had long disgraced the neighbor hood and which would liave been con demned by the beard of health had it net been for the political "infloeenco"' ex erted in their be half, wcre tern down and re moved, and a new and handsome, cdiflce erected. The new build ing Is new com pleted, and is the central flgure of Chinatewn: It is built upon the plan of tlie model ''dumb beir ten ement, being a .ImililA fit, atnw brick heuse about In 25 te 80 feet wlde XT and 200 feet dcen. 1 The halls nre in the center of the building, and like all the rooms and stalrwnys are fin- ished in hard WOOda lef ft light NEW CHINESE CHURCH color. Tlie ground fleer is devoted te business purposes, and is already occupied by busy Mongolian gamblers and tradesmen. The tliree upper floors are se arranged as te be uiilizable for cither living purposes or business. They are all well built, well lighted, plumbed and ventilated. Nearly all are occupied, seme and especially theso used as bearding houses being overcrew ded with guests. One or two Chinamen here conceal their wives in that strange way which marks the social life of the Orient. The rest livewith Caucasian wives, and in seme instances with Irish-American girls, who have a seemingly inveterate antipathy te a mar mar riage ceremony. A. J. The top fleer of the new building is- tbe new church. The Chinese cabinet maker and architect who has charge of the place has planned tlie fleer into a church and altar room, n sacristy and council room. The church will employ the furniture that has se long been used in the old place en Chatham Eauare. Besides tills, it has been equipped with great square ebony chairs and tables, in laid with mother of pearl and carved in queer floral patterns. The new sacristy ill be larger and handsomer than the old. In ene corner is the bunk, a great Xare platform, six feet by eight and ut two feet from the fleer. Over head is a canopy, the same, size as the bed from whose bides hangs handseme drapery rather than curtains. Thov alls are decorated with scrolls, banners and garlands of artificial flowers. Against the wall is a great dining t.ible, covered with queer oilcloth and decorated with geld orenzo bowls, porcelain vases, prayer images, tobacco oexes, the singu Iar pipes known as hubble-bubbles, and teapots, cups and saucers. 6EES AX A VISITS Tlie old altar is a gorgeous mass of carving, geld, flowers, images and bril liant silk hangings. Some of the pictures in the new church are vcritable curies. One is a water color en silk representing tlie recovery of a princess from evil spirits through the prayers of her husband, the lord of the realm. Tlie bcroine is sitting en what seems te be the sugar icing of n wedding cake, but is intended te be a mass of silvery clouds. On cither slde are geed fairies. Belew in the foreground is tne prince pronouncing the magie prayer, and at his side a great magician, who has mastered the secrets of the uni verse In the left background is the reval retinue resplendent in jewels, satin robes and armor, and in the middle back ground a long landscape broken with fertile fields, rich blue rivers and quecrly tinted mountains. Anether picture worthy of -notice is a plcture of life en the upper Ynng-Tszee-Kiang. It is drawn In black upon brownish tinted paper, and made realistie by tlie slight use of colors washed in here and there. In the center is the great river of China, backed by precipices nnd curious vol vel vol cante rocks. In the light foreground is n elnmn of trees crrewlncr partly en the land and partly in the water. In the boughs are huts constructed of bamboo poles, lashed together and thatched with green palm leaves. Bome of the fishers are busy in their aerial homes, whlle ethers are liard at work in their llttle beats and fishing rafts upon the river. The costume of tlie men is simple, though curious. A pointed hat with a vast brim, a square cloak fastened at the neck, which leaves the arms and chest per fectly free, and a breech cloth used ex actly like a baby's diaper. Tlie women are bareheaded or wear similar hats, and ere clothed in what is very much like a short Mether Hubbard. Tlie removal of the old church was celebrated with ap propriate ceremonies. A roll of scarlet cloth was stretched from each church through the halls and stairways te the sidewalk curb.

Eight years age the world was startled bribe ulnttlen of Alexander II, 'eaar of Russia, The man who was the minister of the interior and manager of the system la Togue for repressing nihil ism was Oen. Lorte-Mellkor?, who died recently at Nice. At the time of the emperor's death Melikoff retired from what bad been a long and active service. Since then hk name nas been gradually losing that familiarity it formerly pos sessed with the people of all nations. Michael Tarielevttch Loris-McUkeft was born at Moscow in the year 1824. His father was an Armenian merchant. He was educated at Moscow, and was graduated at the Zagareff institute there, with an excellent reputation as a stu dent. He was quite nreficlcnt in lan guages, which was of valuable assist ance te him afterwards during his mili tary campaigns. At 81 he was lieuten ant and was sent te the Caucasus, where he was made adjutant te Prince Varon Varen Bof. He took part in the campaigns against the natives of that region and inflicted' a defeat upon the Chieftain Shamyl. During the Crimean war he was at tne siege of Kars. "When the fortress was surrendered h e was appointed governor, and upon the return of poaeo was made a major general. About seven years later Mcli Mcli keflt was made lieutenant gener al, and served in Poland against th'e insurgents. In 1803 he became OEU. MEUKOFF. and ten vears late: r general of cavalry. wnen tne Kusse-uurkisn war came be was placed in command of the army operating in Armenia, Kars again was taken, and Erzcreum shared tlie same fate. Then the plague breke out atVclll anka, a small village near the eastern border of European Russia. Melikoff was sent there te fight the disease, and by vigorous measures stayed its progress. Hardly hed this been effected when Gen. Krapetkln, governor of Kharkeff, was stabbed by a Nihilist en leaving a ball room, and Melikoff put in his place. At tills time the Nihilists began their efforts te kill the czar. Melikoff was made chief of a supreme exocutive commis sion, with powers of an autocrat. A week later a Jew Nihilist attempted te assassinate him by firing a pistol bullet into his body, but the general had en several thicknesses of underclothing, which saved him from harm. He ex ercised the ofllce of chief of the commis sion for six months, and after it was discontinued was made minister of the interior, with power very much as be-v fore. On the 18th of March, 1881, he begged the emperor net te go out, hut the sun was shining briglTtly, and the czar was in excellent spirits. Melikoff failed te induce him te remain in the palace. The czar dreve out in his car car riage, te his death at the hands of the Vll.ltl,. .. . . . . After the czars death Melikoff of fered his resignation, but it was net ac cepted. He seemed high in favor with the new sovereign. At ene time it was believed that he iiad wen ever the young czar te permit him te carry out Alex ander's ukase summoning a representa tive assembly, and for the constitution of a ministry, of which he was te liave been the head. The czar's famous mani festo, however, showed Melikoff that he had been mistaken, and he again re signed. His resignation was accepted, and he afterward lived in retirement. A Veteran, Hell Bey.
