ciiHul of Clilna, tlio old
town, with It structure! nntl tradi
tion that hare played their part In
history, cannot but continue ai an Im
portant center of Chlneiw Ufa.
Ther Is much thnt the tourist to
Peking find thnt I unexpected, and
every visitor to the old capital has
pretty dcflnlte lleas of what he Is to
find. For one thing he exacts to find
the town corrupt and contented ; nor I
he disappointed. la the palaces, the
government oltlces and the multitude
of barracks which surround the dty,
some self-seeking gangs of grafters who
have plundered the Chinese people
since the overthrow of the monarchy
are still to be fonnd. Hut the age
long Chinese tradition which would
have centers of government also cen
ters of learning has. In spite of re
actionary rulers, filled the capital with
thousands of eager students for whom
Peking Is not only a city of splendid
memories, but s city of hoes.
There Is the Peking unlvernlty, a
first-clans American mission Institu
tion; the University of Peking, an
equally high-grade government school ;
the new Chin Hwa college and
Score of lesser schools.
It was among the students and
teachers of Peking, particularly among
those of the universities, that the lll
eral movement of recent years In China
started, and continued In the face
of wholesale nrn-sts and suppression
by corrupt ofilclnls. Py the Peking
students the movement was spread
throughout the land.
To find Peking the source and cen
ter of this forward looking movement
for reform Is not the least of the
surprises which await the vUltor.
Buddha and Confucius,
In the great Lnma temple In the
northwest corner of the city, with It
seven sun lit courtyards and lis hun
dred deities, one may see on any fore
noon three-score yellnw-couicd novices
droning the morning lesson, cross leg
ged, before the mnny-hnnded Cod of
Slercy, or half a doren monks In pur
ple pallium celebrating a I.anilst nuiss
with rice out of a sliver howl and wine
from a gold-mounted chnllce fashioned
from a human skull.
Just across the street from these
Idolatrous lamas, who represent the
debased Huddhlsm of Tibet and who
minister chiefly to the Mongol of the
North, Is the quiet, shady close of the
temple of Con fuel us, wherein are
neither monks nor Idol. Here the
mnster Is represented by a simple
wooden tuhlet bearing the letter of
bis name. It Is but little more ex
alted than the tablet of the four
notulite philosophers nnd the twelve
particular disciples who share the
ball with him, and the two and sev
enty famous scholars whose name

The Initial reaction of the visitor
to much that be sees In Peking Is apt
to be one of rilsuppolnlmcnt, followed
by surprise, then by delight and ad.

It Is because the hills, In spite of

out the city wall. They dot the
surrounding plain ; they nest on near
by wooded knolls; they lodge In crev
ices of tlio wide circling, treeless hill
those quiet hills, slow curving, like
billons after storm; verdant and vel
vety In summer; lu winter bare and
red brown, deepening Into twilight
purple. To understand Peking nnd to
love It, one must feel Its glory In ths
setting of the hills, not see It through
the critical dust of the si reeled plain.
One of (he most pleasant way In
which to explore the bill I by rick-
thaws, r.lankctt and quilt uiust be

China carries hi bed with him. Away
one goes three and a half mile, at a

one comes at PI Vun Smi, to th

loveliest temple In the north.
Trip to the Gnat Wall.
One of the most fascinating trips
to be made from Peking Is to Hie
Great Wall. It Is wonder enough for
one Journey to walk atop the wall
and niok out over the dusty brown
plains of the north where Tatar horse
men once swarmed toward tlio pusse.
and to see trains of pack-mule strug
gling throuuh the great stone gate
way ohlhloii of the tralllc on th
nearby rails, their back laden with
merchandise ai were the back of
puck-uiulu two thousand )eurs ago.
I.Ike so much In or dear Peking,
the Great Wall I at first disappoint
ing. It I disappointingly small. It
Is, In places, only twenty feet high
and as many broad, while the city
wall of Peking Is twice as high and,
at the base, thrice ns broad.
When one Hand close under the
Peking city wall It loom above Willi
the massive grandeur of tin abrupt
high cliff; but when the traveler get
olT the train at the Nankow pass and
lees the bit of wall (crumbling up the
hillside before him, he wondere why
It Is called "great,-
That, however, Is only at first II
has only to climb up out of the pass
and follow the wall for half nn hour
and be begins to understand.
Away It goes before him, nnd be

the hlllobcndlng, swinging, climbing,
leaping like tlio supple, nglle dnigoti
of the pnluce-gardeu screen. It .un

It takes the curve of the bills Ilk a
swift auto on a mountain road, on and
on and on, across the furthest gully,
beyond tlio furthest peak. Where the
mountain blend Into the clouds, there
It Is; where tlio lust horizon vanishes,
It Is there.
