Minister Wu Ting Fang told a story at the ex ercises at ( lallaudet College for the Deaf this afternoon, afterassuring the young people that w hile it was unfortunate, of course, lo be deaf and dumb, thele were compensations. Twelve hundred years ago. he said, a great general restored the Emperor of China to his throne. The Emperor, in his gratitude, gave his daughter In mar riage to the son of the general, Things went well for a time, as w ith all young married people, said Mr. Wu, and luen came the falling out. The young husband told his wife that she must nut assume too much haughti ness of spirit, for his father had put her father on the throne and sustained him there in the exercise of his despotic power. The young wife replied that her fath er, the Emperor, could behead the gen eral, who, uftcr all, was not of much uccount, and o followed much strife, into which the parents of the young couple themselves wolvdrawn. Finally all concerned appealed to the Emperor fora decision of the vexatious questions that hail brought so much misery Into the young lives. The Emperor, who was a wise and good man, replied : "There are time s when it is best for fathers-in-law and mothers-in-law to he deaf and dumb." Mr. Wu told the young students that w hile it seemed very hard now to be deaf and dumb, they might find it a very useful affliction when they gol older and bad to deal with the troubles of matrimony. He added also, amid amusement, that the sign languuge was very advantageous in the prosecution of a courtship. Nobody could hear or understand t h e loving expressions which might thereby bo exchanged without embarrassment in the presence of others.
