ROYAL BOSS OF MONGOLIAN PIPERS A Position That and Makes t ata but One Yenr Holder Rich=Some the In the colony of Hong Kong there is a Chinaman who, while his brief reign lasts, is spoken of by the quarter of a million of his fellow countrymen on the island with bated breath. To these Celestials, sub- jects of Queen Victoria, the emperor of China is not nearly so great a man as the “oplum farmer,” asd the queen herself, compared with “his mightiness of the drug,” 1s In their eyes only a far-away soverelgn, not balf so imposing. In order to regulate to some extent the importation of oplum into Hang Kong and to simplify the collection of duties, re- lates the Chicago Times-Herald, the British government several years ago decided to place the whole business in the hands of one man. Reallzing, however, the tre- mendous and arbitrary power that could be wiclded by a single Individual in such & position, it was also decided that the office should only be held one year, and that no person should be allowed to keep it for more than a single term. So it was announced that the government was pre- pared to accept bids for the privilege. Sincé that time the selection of an “opium farmer,” as he is called, has become an annual event. The highest bid gen- erally ranges from 600,000 to 800,000 taels, accordirg to the prospects of the poppy crop for the year and the condition of the market. The successful applicant is duly gazetted In his position and he is given the assistance of a fleet of a dozen swift government customs vessels to protect his RAILWAY TIMB TABLES. o CHICAGO.

CORNELIUS VAN COTT, Postmaster, Postotlice, New York, N. ¥, November 2, Interests. He himselt employs several Junks to guard his business against smug- glers, but he must only use these boats for the purpose of obtaining informatio It ho secures knowledge of smuggling operations he turns it over to the authorl- tles, who run the malefactors down. Nearly every woek in the year there Is a smart ekirmish between the sampans of the smu, glers from the mainland of China and the revenue cutters Pretty little battles some of them are, too, and very useful in giving young British middies and junior naval of- ficers their first taste of sea fighting. The oplum farmer has the sole control of every pound of the drug brought nto Hong Kong, and he generally makes from $260,000 to $300,000 clear profit in his year of ofcc, The government gets much more trom him than it could secure If it attempted to col- lect the duties itself and, moreover, gets It in a lump sum without the enormous amount of trouble and the large force of officers that would otherwise be necessary. The oplum farmer's salaried men watch all Incoming boats, and as it 1s & e of Chinaman Inst Chinaman very Iittle of the raw material gets pa Farewell Dinner, At the end of his term of office he gives & great dinner to government offic paper men and the leading Chinese mer- chants of the colony. This dinner {s one of the threo great events of the Hong Kong year. The other two are the, polo cham- picnehip games and the sham battle between the troops in the garrison. As a matter of fact, though natural pride keeps them trom openly acknowledging it, the white people of Hong Kong look on this unique dinner as by far the most interesting affair in the soclal calendar. When a Chinaman makes up his mind to do a thing handsomely he generally goes to the limit. The oplum tarmer always mak his dinner, which is a sort of tarewell to his trief relgn of czar of the opium smokers, something to be remembered by his white friends. Indeed he lays astde a large sum ot money, ‘from $20,000 to $25,000, for the banquet and always reckons it a legiti- mate ltem of expense when he figures up his bid to the goverument at the beginning of the year. A week before the close of his term of office the farmer sends out his Invitations. These are always verbal, delivered to the lucky reciplent by a shroff (a polite native clerk) who comes to your door with a smile and a bow, clad In a long, blue gown reach- Ing to his heels, and tells you that his mas- ter desires the honor of your presence at the Wong Tal Lo restaurant “to modestly Sup with him from a little dish or two in token of your good will." The {nvitation needs no response. The #hroft takes it for granted that you would postpone a trip to Europe to get to that dinuer and he is right. There are no vacant seats when the ceremonies begin. The Wong Tal Lo restaurant, where all these affairs are given, s the Chineso Del- monico of Hong Kong It stands In the heart of the native quarter, a five-story frame building, elaborately carved, with broad balconles laden with flowering plants and creepers and the usual buge feast lan- terns swaylng in the wind. You are met at the ground floor entrance of the restaurant by one of the farmer's representatives, clad in gorgeous silks, who gives you: chair or rickshaw cool directions about the time for thelr return and shows you upstairs to the great ¢ining room on the third floor. The tables, which run in three parallel lines down the length of the aptrtment, are bare of everything except the usual silverware, with ivory chopsticks added. The big expanse of white cloth hns a peculiarly hospitable and res- taurantlike appearance, which, however, does not lagt 12y long. The walls are covered with Chinese flags and union jacks twined together and hang- Ing by the hundred from the celling are sy lanterns of all designs and colors enclosing electric lights. About 300 guests find seats at places where thelr names are written on pleces_ of pasteboard. Round the head of the center table are the ebony chairs of the host, the governor of the colony, the chief Justice and sometimes the senior naval ofi- cer of the port. Here and there among the other diners are wealthy Chineso merchants, their costumes in startling contrast to the colorless white Eton mess jackets of the rest of the company. . Grand Entrance, When all are seated the oplum farmer en- ters. He comes In through an alcove door, In rather stagey manner, and smiles at the applause that greets him as he takes His place. A minute later he rises to thank his white friends.for their presence at his lowly board and apologizes for *‘the humble char- acter of the fare” he Is about to set before them. Everytody knows what that means. Then he turns to the back of his chair and strikes a gong. Dozens of swift-footed walters at once appear laden with silver ice buckets filled with champagne, port, herry, Frontinac and a varlety of native wines, A hundred young women follow wita trays of wine glasses and tumblers and in a fow moments every guest 18 supplied. Immediately the affalr develops fnto a feast magnificent enough for an old Roman banquet hall. The women, Imported from northern China for the occasion, station themselves behind the chalrs of the guests and play stringed instruments, singing an almost. continuous accompaniment. Flower girls bdaring sweet blossoms of the liches enter and twine garlands across the tables, among chatr backs, about the flags and in the long line of lanterns, The tables are rapidly epread with food and a strange mixture of Orfental and Oc- cidental dishes it is. In addition to roast beef, ham, chicken, turkey and mutton are dozens of Chinese delicacles, curries of every kind, sharks’ fins, jellled eggs, plckled fish, baked hedge-boar, spitted rice birds drawn pellcan meat, preserves of all sorts, mangoose, mangostines, paradise fruit and dozens of wonderful Chinese pudding There {8 no menu card and no sequence of course. You just plck out what yay like and tackle it, Irrespective of what your neighbor Is eating and regardless of whether you be- gIn with dessert or end with soup. Th dishes In which these foods are served are the most magnificent and costly samples of Chinese ware and are |ntended as gifts for the guests. When the dinuer is over you can select what you please from among them. If you go away early enough you are generally wise enough to do this, If you stay till things begin to get warm you are apt to forget all about such a prosalc thing s dishes, When midnight comes and the host, the governor and the chlef justice have dis creetly retired, the singing Jubllating and toasting begin In earnest. As daybreak approaches the falthful rick- shaw men who bhave been kick- ing their bare heels on the brick roads for several hours, begin to think deep boll- ing-oll thoughts about the foreign devils in- side who are yelllng “‘Annie Rooney,” “We Won't Go Home Till Morning,”" “‘Auld Lang and other incantations to their gods, position, 1800, The Billvilla Hall of Fame,” Atlanta Constitution: The following have been elected to the Biliville Hall of Fame: Major Jones, candidate; started running during the war and has been running ever since.
