‘ "31‘ «war with

by Allierlbail Milli of

The trouble in China is beginning to
some home to the residents of Chime
town in an entirely new way. . use
prospect. of a serious shorting

the flowery kinsdolp is staring them
in the face. and wit it comes the ter;
rlble probability that they will be fore
ed to learn to eat American food.
Many articles of Chinese food are now
beibglmlsed in this country. the sup
ply for this city coming from lands
on Long island and in Delaware and
North Carolina. Chinese fishermen at
San Francisco have succeeded in find
lag many of the fish varieties of which
their countrymen are particularly
fond. But there the many delicacies
which are so thoroughly oriental that
there is no hope of their ever being
found elsewhere.

There have been no large shipments
of Chinese foodstuffs since the trouble
began. Most of the delicacies are of
a perishable nature. and a large stock
of them cannot be kept. it takes reg-
ular shipments to keep the market sup.
plied. Prices have already begun to
rise in Chinatown, and the wise Mon-
golians are filling their refrigeratom
with advance supplies. Only a few of
them care for American food. and all
of the delicate morsels which they
particularly like come fiom China.

An one who has ever eaten a thor-
ough y Chinese dinner will realize
how impossible it is to raise many of
the items on the bill of fare in this
country. Take birds' nests. for iii-
stance. Can anyone imagine even a
heathen Chinese eating the combine.
tion of stubble leaves and twigs which
the American bird is content to call
home? The fact of the matter is that
America has not the right kinds of
birds. The particular Chinese bird
whose nest has so fine a taste builds
its home in the rocky cliffs along the
Chinese coast and uses its own saliva
for construction material. The nest
looks like jelly and sells here for $1.50
a portion. although it will not be sold
at all should the war continue much
longer.

Sloot gee In another Chinese food
article that is found only in the
northern part of the empire. It springs
up through the snow and is hard to
find. Sloot gee is a black, fungus-
Iooking substance, and sells for :18
ii pound when there Is any In the mar-

et.

They might use celery in place of
their bamboo shoots, but with hardly
more delight than the lover of good
Havana leaf would smoke cabbage
leaves should there be a shortage in
tobacco. The shootsvare exported to
America both in the natural and pro.
served state. and no attempt has ever
been made to raise them here. Chin.
one think there is no comparison be
tween the egg laid in America and the
similar article which is sent them from
China preserved in black clay. They
hold the same views about oysters.
and would rather have one Chinese
dried oyster, although it looks like
leather and smells like poor varnish.
than a whole basket of Rocksway bi
valves. Duck gizard. lycbee nuts and
dried mushrooms are other articles
which must come from China if the
Chinese taste is to be satisfied.

There are plenty of dried lizards on
the market. thanks to the enterprise of
a San Francisco importing firm. Be-
fore the Boxers took up their big
knives for the purpose of exterminat
ing everything Christian. even the
fourth generation. this firm found that
the market was short on lizards and
imported a quantity. The price took
a jump. however. owing to a decision
of the customs officials. The lizard is
generally used to make a medicinal

ruled that It was a medical prepara
tion. and should pay 26 per cent. ad
valorum duty. .The Chinese claimed
that it was an extract of meat. and
should come in for 10 per cent. under

. the head of “unmaaufactured articles."

Of course. the customs men had their
way. and dried lizards are almost as
expensive as the food on which the
war has caused a shortage—New

SEATING THE CAR COMPANY.
Surprising Trouble the Little Old Wo-
man Want to to Save a Nickel.

it is an axiom with street railroad
men that people are willing to go to
a surprising amount of trouble to
"beat" the company out of the elusive
nickel. A little old woman who board
ed a northbound Columbus avenue car
at Beaver street. the other day. had '1
brand new scheme for getting a ride
to Harlem. without paying for it. She
looked like a woman in comfortable
circumstances. and ,naturally enough.
the few passengers on the car wore
very much surprised when she began
to argue with the conductor about. pay-
Iiig her fare.

"i haven‘t got a cent. and i must get
to 108th street somehow." sa’fi the lit
tle old ladY.

“Pay or get off," replied the conduct-
or.

“Bill." remonstratcd the woman.
“you would'nt put an old person like
me off the car, would you? lLl had
the money I'd give it to you; but I
haven't a cent. and I want to go to see
my sick sister in-—~"

“Come. now.” the conductor later-
rupting. “It's either pay or get off."

By this time the cached E0116 three
blocks, and the passengers were be-
ginning to grow interested. Still the
little old lady temporized and still the
car sped along. Finally the condos
tor's patience gave 00 and ringing

and made the woman get out. Then it
was that the revealed her little scheme

pleasantly. "and l'm very much obliged
to you for the ride. l'in going to keep
getting on and off cars till i get to
Harlem. Cheap. ain’t It?"

Looking back the passengers saw
the old lady hail the next car and climb
aboard. The conductor n-owiie'd. and
then he smiled.

"What do you think of that?” he
said.
