Tablai., Five Chinese imperial seals and 12 jade tablets from the temple at Pe king, which were brought home by Lieut. John B. SchoefTel, of the Ninth infantry, were seized at the transport •lock at San Francisco by the customs oflicers the other day It was supposed at first that the tablets were of great historical value, but more careful ex amination convinces the customs offi cials that they were simply ornaments and of no particular value except as curios. Both the tablets and seals are beautifully done, and they will com mand high prices as curios. It was in tended at first to hold the relics pend ing instructions from Washington, but later it was decided that Schoeffel could have his property by paying the duty. The amount has not been fixed. The imperial seals weigh about six pounds, are of rectangular r----- shape, about six inches square J and three inches in height, Carved dragons in crouching attitudes surmount the block, serving as handles. Chinese characters are carved in relief on the base of the seals, and a yellow tassel is knotted on one of them. The tablets are of dark green jade, each inscribed on one side with Chinese characters traced in gold. The five-toed dragon, the Chinese royal escutcheon, is im printed on the other side, also traced in gold. The tablet« are ten inches by five, by one-half an inch in thickness. Lieut. Schoeff el said he bought the jade tablets of a Chinese, who did not tell him where they caine from. He declares that if they are of any his torical value he did not know it. He bought them simply as curios, and has been carting them around for two years. lie was not in the least disturbed by the seizure. HIGH TRIBUTE " to ’ h IS WIFE.
