Did the ten Chinamen who were invited to have their heads
chopped off, escape?

Wishing great success to THE GREAT ROUND WORLD,

I remain your faithful reader,
HOWARD B.
NEW YORK CITY, May 2d, 1897.


DEAR HOWARD:

It is too soon to know about the Chinamen yet. They came from San
Francisco to see the Chinese Minister in Washington. There was to be a
change of Chinese Ministers in this country, and it was expected that Mr.
Yang Yu, the gentleman who was leaving this country, would go back to
Peking, and so the See Yups wanted to make him the bearer of their
messages.

Mr. Yang Yu has, however, been appointed to St. Petersburg, in Russia, and
it is doubtful if he can be of much use to his countrymen, as he may not
go to China for several years.

It is to be supposed that the Chinamen under sentence of death will have
the sense to remain in this country, where they are safe. EDITOR.


DEAR EDITOR:

I like Cuba. Do you think Cuba is winning, or Spain? I hope Cuba
will win. I am six years old. I like THE GREAT ROUND WORLD.
Please put me in the paper. I think that monster you wrote about
was very nice, but I would not like him to catch me, and I like
the lazy man's stairs. Good-by.

Yours truly,
ROBERT D.F.
BALTIMORE, MD.


DEAR EDITOR:

I think THE GREAT ROUND WORLD is fine for young folks to read,
and even for grown-up people, too. I enjoy reading it very much.
I think there is no other little book that will do us so much
good as THE GREAT ROUND WORLD.

I hope the United States will make Spain pay for the cruelty
that was done to Dr. Ruiz by them. It looks as if Cuba will win
her freedom from Spain, and I hope she will. I remain,

Yours truly,
HENRY H.
GLOUCESTER, MASS., April 14th, 1897.


DEAR EDITOR:

I like THE GREAT ROUND WORLD very much. I anxiously wait for it
to come. I hope Cuba and Spain and all countries will soon be
free from war. Do you think that Greece can keep its little
island Crete? I was very much interested in the story about the
St. Bernard.

Yours truly,
EDITH MCK.
GLOUCHESTER, MASS., April 14th, 1897.


The Editor takes much pleasure in acknowledging the very nice letters from
Robert D.F., Henry H., and Edith McK. They are all nice, well-written
letters, which the Editor is very pleased to receive.

The Editor would be much pleased if Ph.D. (McCoy Hall, Baltimore, Md.)
would explain his views on the Bering Sea Arbitration Award.

The columns of THE GREAT ROUND WORLD are always open to arguments on both
sides of a question.
