f The recent excitement In Cerea en the
report that children Tvcre being kidnaped
and sold te the Japanese, te be cooked and
eaten was a very 6erleua matter. The
foreigners were Implicated, and It took he
less than three proclamations, the last
signed by the king himself, te allay the
feeling of the populace.
st.u- of cenn.
Ceren Is In Asia, occupying n peninsula
resembling Flerida In sliape ana extend
ing toward Japun. There nre 10,000,000
of poeplo en 1)0,000 equare miles. Frem
the crcdence given te the reported eating
of boiled or roasted children by the
Japanese, It Is te be Inferred that the
Cercans are net In a remarkably high state
of civilization, and their ideas of jnstlce
nre especially crude-. One. of the
first legal proceedings a barbarous pcople
learn Is the method of Jmlge Lynch, and
the Cercans In the recent troubles net
only reverscd the assumption that a man
Is supposed te be Innocent until proved
guilty, but put the accused te death by
mob power en accusatleu. The first proc
lamation informed the people that chil
dren were being stolen, but if they put
the accused stealers te death their voices
would be stilled and there would be no
yef finding out anything further; the
second called the attention of the peeple
te the truth that rumors did net xnake
facts; and the third, coming from the
king, offered a reward for any man found
spreading a false report or bringing a
f also accusation. The reward alene proved
effective.
But we arc net te expect much of a peo pee pee
peo who pay tribute both te Chlua and
Japan, and among whom persons are te be
found willing te eiler themselves as slaves,
or sell their children into slavery; where
nearly all ether ranks are belter than
merchants, who with footmen, jailers,
monks, butchers and sorcerers make up
the lowest rank In society. Hut why a
policeman ranks as high as he does, where
se little attention is paid te hi3 author
ity, there seems te be no clear explana
tion. A singular feature is that the modern
labor vement is 6treng among theso
ctherwlse benighted pcople. The artisans
and laborers are united in powerful guilds,
which control the pervlccs and wages In
wi.v in cone,
the several professions, and pay taxes te
the government for the prlvilege of this
monopoly.
Cerea has an ambassador at 'Washing
ton who attracts attention by his peculiar
dress and antiquated headgear. Most of
these Asiatic nations are beginning te
ehew blgns of improvement upon their
contiguity with Europeans, bat with such
actions en the part of the Cereans as
stated, they have a great deal te learn.
Any peeple who class together a merchant
ena"TS butcher, a inenic and a fercercr,
must be still in the depths of barbarism.
It is a very bingular fact, by the way,
that this accusation of stealing, roasting
and eating children is ene that comes up
from time te time with almost calendar
regularity among the dark races of man
kind. 7 ' " slnce Christian missionaries
were domiciled In China has a regular
panic risen among the pcople en the sub-

COHEAN DHEES (MALE).
Ject; in ene case a frightful massacre was
the result, and in the ether the missiona
ries were only saved by the most unro unre
lentlng measures en the part of the pelice
and ether authorities. Atxmt thirty yearn
age a panic was created among the lower
classes of Valparaiso by the disappear
ance of a child, and lu forty-eight
hours the story was told from
alley te alley, and firmly believed
by the pepulace, that ft Frenchman,
who had a "den" In ene of theohscure
comers, had killed and eaten 200 chll
dicjv Every ene was en the lookout for
him, and by an evil chance, as It proved
for him, a peculiarly cauavcreus nuu im
pulsive looking Frenchman, who had been
confined te his quarters for a lung time,
was Hist been en his way te leave the
city. The mob raised the cry and in the
fight between them and the pelice the
unfortunate man was almost killed. A
grim humor was added te the situation
by the well established fact that net a
child In Valparaiso was missing, save the
ene, which was probably drowned.
Every reader of the "Arabian Nights"
knows hew firmly fixed In the Arab or
Moerlr.li mind was the belief lu ghouls
depraved human beings who feed upon
corpses and many people of mere Intel
ligence still believe that theso who have
eaten human flesh, In shipwreck or ether
extremity, will never again be satisfied
with any ether, such is the well known
fact In regard te the tlgi-r Frem the

The lower orders of Ohlnese implicitly
bollevo that children are eaten In some
countries by the while people, and the old
Guinea negre notion of the disposal of
black children taken by the whites is well
known. What is this mysterious law of

fourth king clected since the new king

After the western Reman empire fell,
the eastern or Byzantlnocmplre continued
te exist for about 1,000 years in a state of
almost continuous decay, and Constan
tinople was finally taken by the Turks
in 1403. They seen subjugated Greece
and ruled It tyrannically for 000 years;
then the Greeks rose In rebellion, under
'arce Bezzarls, Ypsllantl, Mavrocerdato

first suppressed, with awful massacres;
but Western Eurepe took an Interest In
the classie land and many Phllhellencs
("Levers of Greece") volunteered te as

ally the combined fleets of England, France
and Russia annihilated the Turkish fleet
at Navorlne, Oct. CO, 1827, and Greece be be bo
came free.
After an interregnum the great powers
selected Prlnce Leepold of Belgium for
king of Greece, but he renounced his
claim a few months later. In 1832 the
powers selected Othe of Bavaria, who be
came king at the age of 17, and had a
troubled reign of thirty years. In October,
1802, he abdicated in the face of a revolu
tion, and the national council provided
for the election of a king by universal
suffrage Prlnce Alfred of England was
chosen by an immonse majority, but Eng

"KING OF THE CORNER."
SELF MADE MAN WITH A KEEN
EYE FOR STOCKS.
Something About "Old Hutch' ami the
Manner In Which He II M Unlit t'p Hit
Large rertnne In the Chicago Heard of
Trade.
B. T. Hutchinson, the "king of the
corner" in the recent deal In September
wheat In Chicago, has been called "Old
Hutch" for twenty years, He Is a tall,
pertly man, with n smooth, very florid
face en which he never wears n beard.
His body is perched en a pair of long legs,
the whele being usually surmounted by a
felt hat wttn a breaa unm. Air. uuion uuien uuion
lnsen Is essentially a self made man of a
practical turn of mind, and without the
slightest pretension te icsthetle tastes.
Fer many years president of the Chicago
Packing company, he knows perk from
the sucking pig te the briny barrel. A
gradual accumulation of wealth hs beca
coming te him for many years, until new
his fertune Is estimated at about 8,000,
000.
Mr. nutchlnsen started at the bench as
a shoemaker In Lynn, Mass. He seen left
this, hewever, and established a drygoeds
Btere: but, unfortunately, just In time te
gt caught In the ranle of 1657. Then he
went te Chicago and began specu. ug en
the beard of trade.
The beard was a very different affair In
theso days from what It Is new. Its
meetings were held in a building near the
Chicago river, and considerable urging
was necessarv te lnduce the members te
go en te the fleer of thoexchange te make
their deals. The membership fce was a
trifle net $50 and a number of citizens
held membership tickets who nover used
them. But,afterawhllo,thoChlcagocham But,afterawhlle,thoChlcagocham But,afterawhllo,theChlcagocham
ber of cominerco built a fine building en the
corner of Lasalle and Washington strcets,
and BCt epart the upper part of a spacious
operating room for the beard of trade.
The big tire of 1871 Bwt it away, but a
uncr uuiiuing was
put up in its place.
At this time mem
bership tlokets
were worth fHUU.
'The plan was con
ceived of limiting

till they reached about 800, then they
made a sky recket movement which did
net step till it had reached a point abeve
$4,000. They fell off semewhat after
that, but a membership ticket te the
Chicago beard of trade nas always slnce
been a valuabue piece of pasteboard.
There have been a number of "corner
kings" en the beard during the past
fifteen or twenty years, but the earlier
ones all went te the wall at last. Hutch
inson has been ever present operating
In his own peculiar metheds. He has al
ways been in the habit of taking small
profits whenever they could be secured
and would usually pocket rt less without
waiting for It te grew. Indeed he has
been considered ene of the most timid.
But Mr. Hutchinson's avallable means
have been slowly accumulating for many
years. Whlle men would spring un sud
denly en the beard and shlne brilliantly
for a whlle, only te retire ruined, Hutch
inson staved, working cautiously and
methodically, till what "Hutch" was go
ing te de en the wheat market In Chicago
began te be a matter of as much Interest
as what Cornelius Vanderbllt or Daniel
Drew would ence de In the stock market
in New Yerk.
Mr. Hutchinson has a seu and two
daughters grown. His eon Charles Is said
te be as keen a business m as his
father. One of the daughters married
Mr. Lancaster, of the Chicago Carpet com cem
pany, whlle another married Mr. N. B.
Judeu, ene of Chicago's most prominent
lawyers and n man of especial Intellec
tual tastes. Mr. Hutchinson's children
de net bympathlze with the old raan'd
rating Of the line arts. Ills son Charles
Us president of the Chicago Art Institute
Berne time ege nepurcuaseu a picture ei
sheep by Hosa Bonheur for $1 ,000. When
the old man heard of It he affected te be
Indignant, averring that his son could
lmve geno out te the stock yards and pur
chased the real artlcle for two dollars a
head.
But there was doubtless ascertain grim
humor In the remark, as there was te
what he said ene day te a new telegraph
boy who came en te the fleer of the Ex
change with a dispatch, and standing by
the old man, called "B. P. nutchlnsen.1'
"Get a dispatch for Old Hutch!" asked
the vcnerable wheat dealer.
"Yls. I 'meet se." renlled the bev
"Well, the old feel Isn't here. He can't
read, anyway. Take it ever there te
Frank Maeln." .
i Mr. Hutchinson has an astonishing
memory. He will run thp most gigantic
corner and every evening he can call off
correctly every trade he has made during
the day. On ene occasion ft friend ex
pressing n doubt as te the old man's abil
ity te keep the record in his head correctly
"Hutch" took out his settling books und
bade the doubter keep tally, whlle he
called iff their contents from memory.
He didn't make a slngle mistake
The first thing In the morning which
Mr. Hutchinson attends tp Is his morn mern
lng paper. He gees te The Tribune of
fice and gets his paper frefh from the
press. A story Is told of him that ene
Sunday morning he took his paper te the
premises of the Chicago Carpet company
ever which his son-in-law presides, nnd
the show window being fitted up as a
bed chamber the old mau threw himself
en the display bedstead. Here he went
ever the market rcpertu till sleep over ever
camo 1dm, and he sank Inte a peaceful
blumbcr. Church goers that morning
were surprised te bee what at first ap
peared te be a cerpse stretched out en the
canopied bed as If It. were lying Instate.
But everybody In Chicago knows Mr.
Huchlnsen, and it was net long before hli
Ben was Informed of the attention hh
father was attracting. He hastened te
the scene, aweke the sleeper and drew the
curtains.
The recent rernT has doubtless been
ene of the most successful ever engi
neered en the Chicago beard of trade.
Mr. Hutchinson has managed it very
shrewdly, aud has forced his antagonists
te settle at $3 a bushel. The mujerity
will pay, and it Is prebable that many of
the dollars handed ever te Mr. nutchln nutchln
be:i will be a return of theso which have
been squeezed out of the squeezer en
former occasions.
Mr. Hutchinson Is new about CO years
old. If he has theiluck te finish his career
without any evcre back bet, he will leave
an lmmense estate te hU children.

Criminal Haste The Sutitln fMnelpIe el-
IJfe The Docter Convinced That Man
Can Illtirrnnlr.
Eight yearn have geno slnce Dr. II. S.
Tanner performed hU wonderful feat of
fasting lerty days and nights in Clarenden
hall, In New Yerk city. Ker BUctccndavs
he touched neither water nor feed. After
the sixteenth day lis began te drink water,
and subsisted en this alone during the re
maining twenty-four days of his fat.
Thepublle has net heard much of the
plucky llttle doctor for the last few years,
out net leug age he turned up In Chicago,
bright and chipper, a splendid specimen
of a mau In perfect health, and with n
rotundity of form Indtcatlve rather of the
bon vlvant than of a man who cats only
two meals a day In Buumicr and only oue
In winter.
"Where have you been keeplug your
self, doctor?" asked a reporter, after
frlendly greetings ha.' been exchanged.
"I have Just returned from New Mex
ico, where I have been for nearly four
years, pursuing rcrtnlti Investigatien1! of
a scientific nature I am much Interested
in the subject of suspended animation or
counterfeit death. I am cenvluced that a
far greater percentage ef peeple are
buried alive than even theso who have
ever given, the matter much thought
would be willing te bolleve. Iu no. conn cenn
try In the world are the dead burled with
bucii criminal uaste, I may say, as In the
United States. I have been looking Inte
this subject mero or less for the last
twenty-live years, and the ovldeneo I have
accumulated Is startling. I tell you, It is
murder, horrtble murder, and it is high
time 6orue agitation was Btartcd for tiie
purpose of securing needed loglslatleu en
the subject of the burial of the dead.
Tnn movement in Ktntern.
"The nrtnclnle of llfe Is se siilille." eon.
tlnued the doctor, "that man with all his
Rclence knows nothing about tt and the
only safeguard against the awful crime
of burying allve theso we leve lies in the
precautions that are taken against com
mitting their bedlea te the tomb befere
decomposition has set In. That Is tlin
only tminlstalcftble sign that death has
finally taken place. The peeple of Hol Hel
land were among the first te awaken te
the importance of this subject, aud lu
1701 a Boclety was organized In Amster
dam for the purpese of looking Inte eases
where death seemed counterfeit rather
than real. In less than four years they
had resuscitated saved from entombment
alive no less than 100 persons. In 1708
the authorities at Milan and Venice, and
theso at Hamburg, followed the example
ect by Helland, and a llttle later similar
oeclotles were fermed at Londen, Paris
and Glasgow. As n result of the work und
investigations of these aocletlcs, among
the members of which were Borne of the
foremost scientists of the times, It has
been proved that In a great number of
casc3 where every known test had been
nppllcd aud preparations made for the
burial the subjects had recovered. These
experiences led Professer Morlue, of the
University of Heme, te offer a prize of
1.C00 francs for the host essay ou oppar eppar
cut death; aud the Marquis d'Ouclie left
SO.OOO franca te be used In discovering the
best means that could be applied lu de
tecting tbe counterfeit of death. And se
in all countries statistics collated en this
eubject are etnrtllng, as reveallng the
danger of premature, burial,"
"New don't you think," asked the
doctor, "that this it n, subject that peo pee pee
peo should discuss, should )e waked up
ODOUtf
"What remedy have you te offer,
doctor?"
"Simply this: I held and It certainly
cannot be successfully contradicted that
the Betting lu of decomposition la the
only certain sign of death. Iu the ab ab
Beuco of this burial blieuld be dclayed
weeks and months, If necessary, for be
long as there is no decay llfe may haugby
n feeble thread, and, by that subtleness
of which I have already Bpekcu, the re
covery be spontaneous.
Tnn DocTen wili nmnnsATn.
P "Anether discovery that I have made,''
said the doctor, "Is that hibernating ani
mals de net use their lunca durlntr the
riried of hibernation. Fer several years
have been studying the habits of this
class of animals, and, de you knew, I
am about convinced that man can hlbcr hlbcr
Xiate" Here the reporter must liave looked the
Incredulity he felt, for thodector hastened
te explain: "Take the bear fef example;
lta OTgau3 of respiration are the same as
man's, and it hibernates for months with
out feed or drink. I have also been
Btndylng the philosophy of the adepts
who used te be Me te go Inte the death
trance at will Their preparation for this
was long fasting, ana tiie trance condi
tion following wus, in my opinion, n tea
beu of hibernation, I am studying new
with n view of making tsome experiments
in this line, and the time may ceme when
1 will permit myself te be sealed up in an
air tight coffin and laid away until such
time as I shall dcslguute for It te be
opened."
"But, doctor, you will net expect te
ceme out of a test llke that allve, will
.von!"
"Yes, indeed," wai the earnest reply.
"I have twice bcen near the portals of
the tomb lu my Btudlcs of thin subject of
llfe prlnciple and of fluspcuded animation,
and 1 firmly bcUeve I cau go ntill nearer
that 1 can te all outward anpe&rauce.s be
dead, and, remaining that way for a
length of time, can Btill ceme back a liv
ing witness of the truth of my theories
and investigations."
fipeaklng of Ids fast, he said: "The
fact Is, with most peeple the body rules
the mind, whlle the roverse should be the
case the mind should control the body
Appetite, und It may be n depraved one,
clamors for this or that desired article,
and peeple rush off te gratify it. When
I began my forty days' lasting I said te
my stemach: 'Here, old fellow, I have a
job for you. I want you te take ft geed
long rest, and I want no grumbling about
it." '1 out, hcttied it. At iu e ciecit or urn
last day of my fast, when I had only two
hours te go, ft llttle child that was In the
room whcie I was thrust a ripe peach un
der my nose, If Adam was tempted a,s I
was then I de net wonder that he fell. I
had su little longer te go without eating
that I relaxed my will power, and truly
my greatest ruffcrlngs wcie during the
leit two hours of my fast." Chicago

TTrnfifTl Mifmps' CtrrletU Career,
Wendell Phillips was a natural aristo
crat. Ills father was the first mayor of
ltosten, and the famous schools at Andover
nndExoter iccognlze his family as their
founder. He was reared In aflluence, a'ld
at school was an athlote as well ns a
student. IIe loved te box, and te run and
te row. IIe was the bitterest opponent
of the first tcrapcrance association formed
In llarvnrd college. In hla early llfe he
loved all the geed things of the world.
He was fend of the physical as well as tbe
Intellectual. IIe levcu the beautiful, and
Rdmlred women nbove almost any young
man of his class. Vet his whele llfe
changed as he grew elder. He married a
girl en her sick bed, who never get well,
and he devoted his whele hfe te her care.
He be e an odvecato of tempernnce,
nnd when he snw William Lloyd Garrison
dragged through the streets in the nutl
slavery ngitatien, he determined todnveto
his llfe te redressl' the wrongs of the
black mau. "Wny don't the mayor call
out the mllltla," of which he was ene, he
cried. Frem high class surroundings he
then moved into the lowly quarter that
he might carrv out his ideas of protection
te the peer. AVJuat a curleui career fol
