Main 4600 MANHATTAN DAYS AND NIGHTS BY HERBERT COREY NEW YORK.—Manhattan was marked “inspected and condemned” by the Democratic delegates. They agreed the town should be seen once by every American. Just like getting vaccinated. They even conceded that it has its advantages as a play- ground. But it is no place in which to live. What if you do make money in New York?" they asked. “It's all taken away from you." Not that they thought they were robbed. The robbery talk Is the wildest sort of bunk. Of course, when you pay 80 cents for an ice cream soda the first time it hurts. But a large share of that price goes to offset the highest rents in the world and the cost of a beauty chorus to serve you, and the rich plush atmos- phere. It was not on that account the dele- gates disliked New York. They thought it was a rotten town. “We get everything in Dallas that you get in New York,” said one man, “and a lot that vou don't.” Not everything, he corrected him- self. Not the hellish noise that rips the New York ear drum. Not the pushing, thrusting crowds. They are not precisely ill-mannered crowds, but they disregard manners. They fight their way®into subways, into cars, Into busses, Into stores, out again. By and by they get the habit. “I have a friend who lives in the Bronx,” sald the Pennsylvanian who sat next. “He hasn't seen Broadway in a year. Too tired by the time he gets home.” But the girls who came along with dad or mamma thrilled to the big city. One heard that continually. “I am so thrilled.” The lights of Broad- way sent prickles up their neat little backbones. They reveled wide-eyed in the big stores and in the exclusive shops on the side streets. They were here to spend and to see and did both. The other side didn't touch CHINESE RULER BANS QUEUES AS IGNORANT Wang Gives Subjects Two Months to Be Rid of Appendages. By the Awsociated Press. PEKING, July 11.—Queues are a mark of ignorance and the wearing of them does no credit to latter-day China, says Gen. Wang Chen-ping, civil gavernor of Chihli Province, in an order abolishing them. Two months’ time will be allowed “pig tail” Gen. Chinese to get rid of their append- |, ages voluntarily. After that queue- cutting parties will be staged by the police in all quarters of the province by official order. A brief campaign of 2ducation will be carried on during the two months’ respite by means of posters and hand bills. The police in the villages will assist by telling the people how fool- ish they are to stick to the ancient custom. In addition to having his queue for- cibly removed, any Chinese failing to observe the order will be fined one dollar, the proceeds to be divided among the police who have been most consclentious in enforcing obedience. rs.

An appeal was made to the United States consular officials, but they were un- able to aid him in his predicament. Other Americans in Berlin, Heldel- berg ‘and other university towns since have also taken the matter up with the United States consular of- ficials, contending that as they were under the impression that they would not have to pay the income taxes here they had spent the money from home as fast as it came and, as they have no reserve funds on hand to pay the German government the amounts it demands, they are at a loss now what step to take next.
