True to his antioaoattons the crackers arrived on scheduled time an$ searched the safe from top to bottom in me nope that the manager might by mistake, on this particular night, have decided to put the safe to some practical uae and place some cash therein. However, the manager had not yet come to the con clusion that the safe could be usea without endangering the whole estab lishment ao no money was obtained. Mr. Waring thinks that no . papers are missing, although things -were not quite In the order In which tney were ten Saturday .ignir-..-r--4-T-!Rf The thieves were probably, the same that worked at the Acme Lumber com pany's office on the peninsula -Friday morning, but no clue whatever as to their identity waa left-. A similar instance ie recorded In the city which happened some time ago In fuel company a office where instruc tions were left every . night so that when, the thieves arrived . they would. have no trouble in looting the safe without spoiling it, but In this case the manager not reckless and left aome money In the safe which perhaps urged the present looters thoroughly to over haul the contents.- .... . . Mr. Waring says that the company will not be much inconvenienced by the occurrence, but thinka that the thieves might have arranged the papers in the order in which - they found, them and locked up the safe again. , .

Cell Wfll Return to Orient to Penetrate obi Desert. , 't TTiJna la - awakening faater than Japan did. '' China has "hot been stirring as long as her little neighbor, but ta the end It will be seen that the Chinese have accepted modern Ideae and cue. tome with greater rapidity than did the Japanese.' This Is the opinion ef William Edgar Oetl. whe recently returned from a five- year tour er the world, during which he I penetrated some hitherto unexplored - parts ef both Asia end Africa. Mr. Oell says that while at the time of the war between China and Japan It may have been ftoeetble that a large part ef the I Chinese people knew aoLMug or tbe war nntlL after It was ended, such a condi tion could not exist at the present day. . 'The modern tendencies of the Chi nese are well Illustrated by the single fact that I waa able to get money by telegraph when I was 8,800 miles from Shanghai In the Interior of the empire," he said. "I was given my money within two hours after I wired for it. The na tion la thoroughly organised, and the entire empire Is a network ef telegraph wires. The Chinese have built tele graph lines faster than we have. "Many Chinese In their native coun try are cutting off their queues. There le no nation on earth that eats better food than the Chinese. Their modem tendencies may be shown again by the fact that the only dally paper for women tn the world, so far as I know. la published tn the Chinese language at Pekln." . : - ' 1 - Will explore OoM DeeerV Mr. Geil hss traveled more than 11M0 miles during hie five-year tour, which he has devoted to m comparative study of the native racee of the world. lie says that foreign missionaries have exerted a wonderful Influence on the native tribes of Osla and Africa, and that auch a study as be . undertook necessitated an Indepeadent study of forelari missionary operations; alee many haaardous feats of exploration.. which ha modestly passes wiia a wave of the hand and the remark that they were performed. Until next August, Mr. oeu wui ee vote his time In the United States to lecturing, when he will sail from Seattle for the purpose oi exploring the great Gobi desert, south ef Siberia.
