NOVELTY NEWS OF THIS VICINITY AltCHBALl). Rev. W. W. Shaw, .it. A., pastor of the Presbyterian church, lectured on North China, the Scene of the Present War," before a large and appreciative audience In Father Mathew hall on Thursday evening. Mr. Shaw had beea a missionary and traveled extensively In Northern China, and Is, therefore, well qualified to speak of the Chinese and the comparatively unknown coun try In which they dwell. Stlllman Law, of Avoca, was chairman at 'the lecture, and on the stage were seated a number of young ladles wearing Chinese cos tumes. -Mr. Shaw gave a highly enter taining description of the manners and customs of the people of northern China, and the Interest In his narra tive was heightened by many amusing anecdotes of his life among them. The Inhabitants in the north of China, he said, differ greatly from those of the south. The eye of the northern China man Is not so oblique as that of his southern brother, and there are other marked differences In the character of the countenance. There Is also a dif ference In their mode of living, In their disposition, and In their Intercourse with strangers. In many respects their customs are the utter reverse of ours. When a Chinaman greets a friend ha "shakes hands with himself;" when he mourns he wears white; when lie eats his food is either unripe or over-ripe. Even their door-locks turn the reverse of ours. They seem to do things by contraries. The Chinaman on his na tive heath has many good traits and not the least are his hospitality and his respect for age. A gray halred-man Is almost venerated. One of the first questions asked of a stranger concerns his age, and even he who seeks Informa tion from a lady on that delicate point Is not considered dver-bold. Mr. Shaw was not 'fascinated by their modes of traveling. Judging from his account of a Journey he undertook in u Chinese cart; nor was he delighted with the innate InquMitlveness which prompted the Celestials to tear the window-panes of hla house so that they might see what was going on inside. He told harrowing Btorles of the poverty that followed the overflow of the rivers and the failure of the crops, and described the means by which relief Is given to the districts thus Btrlcken. Mr. Shaw spent much of his time In the neighbor hood of Port Arthur and Monkden, places frequently referred to In the war news of today. He enjoyed an ac quaintance with some of the leading Chinese officers now on the battle ground and also with those connected with the administration of govern mental affairs. He thinks China will be defeated in its present war with Japan because of the unfitness of her undisciplined officers and troops to cope with the well-trained soldiers of Japan, and also because of the fla grant honesty of the officials, who convert to their own uses money that should be spent in the building of de fenses for the government. He believes that the result of the present war, in any event, will be beneficial to China, because It will undoubtedly lead to the Introduction of European Ideas and the dispersion of the superstition that now prevails there. The lecture was very Interesting and the audience was evidently -well satisfied with it. On its conclusion the audience inspected the large and beautiful collection of Chi nese and Japanese articles owned by Mr. and Mrs. Shaw. George McDonald, of Scranton, was among the visitors at St. Thomas' fair on Thursday evening. School Director Toolan was in the city yesterday.
