Moxli-rn Finance.
In condemning that sort of modern
finance that consists in getting some
thing for nothing, tho late Bishop
Potter said: "I once knew a boy
who would havo made a splendid fi
nancier. ThiB boy, strolling idly
through the streets he never had
anything to do met another.
" 'I wish,' he said 'I had a nickel.
Then I'd buy a good 5-cent cigar
and go into the woods and have a
smoke.'
" 'I have a nickel,' said tho other
boy.
" 'Have you?" the first cried eager
ly. "Then let's form a corporation.'
" 'All right. How Is It done?'
" 'I'll be the president. You'll be
tho stockholder. The nickel will be
the ..cnpltal and we'll invest it In
tobacco.'
"The thing was agreed to and tho
president, taking the stockholder's 5
cents, bought a cigar forthwith.
Then he led tho way to the woods.
There he sat down on a log, lit up
and began to smoke skillfully.
Tho stockholder waited for his
turn to come. He waited very pn
tiently. But the cigar diminished.
One-third of It, two-thirds of it dis
appeared and still the president
showed no signs of satiety.
"'Say!' exclaimed the stockholder
at last, 'don't I get a whack here?'
"The president, knocking off the
ashes, shook his head.
" 'I don't Bee it,' he said.
" 'But what,' shouted the angry
stockholder, 'do I get for my capi
tal?' " 'Well,' said the president, 'you
can spit.' "
Now York City. Frledrlch Hirth,
Professor of Chinese in Columbia
University, who as a lifelong student
of the Chinese people, their languago
and literature. Is considered one of
the best authorities living on Chinese
topics, gave It ns his opinion that the
death of tho Kmpress Dowager and
the Emperor meant the opening of
an entirely new and belter era which
would benefit not only China but the
other nations of the world. He
thought affairs in China would from
now on advance rapidly toward Euro
pean ideals, and though progress will
be less rapid than in Japan, China
would In thirty or even twenty years
be transformed into a nation on an
equal footing with tho other great
nations of the world.
Professor Hirth had no belief in
the report that foul piny had entered
into the death of the Dowager or the
Emperor. In regard to the general
attitude of the influential parties and
Individuals toward the now rule, he'
said:
"I think the events of the next few
weeks or days will determine the
question of bloodshed or peace. I
think that both Liberals nnd Conser
vatives ate ready to wait quietly In
order to see what course the Govern
ment will take. Prince Chun is a
Liberal, nnd he has enough followers.
I think, among the really dangerous
party, the overardent Liberals, who
might be called the Anarchistic party,
to avert any trouble from them.
"Prince Chun, I believe. Is an able
man. He has visited Germany on a
diplomatic mission. He alone of those
who have come Into great power in
China has seen Europe; that single
fact should be enough to show in
what direction his rule will tend."
Speaking In a general way of the
death of Emperor and Dowager he
aid:
"It appenrs to me a very beneficial
thing for China. The antagonistic
relations between the two and the
control by the Downger of the Em
peror roused great dissatisfaction
among the Liberals, who had rested
their hopes on the Emperor.
"Yet Tsi-An played a talunble part.
It almost seems she saved the nation
In 1898, when by a coup d'etat tho
young Emperor tried to crowd on
China In twenty days changes which
the nation would have needed as
many years to digest.
"Yet, the Empei jr being highly
appreciated by the party of reform
nnd progress, her seizure of the reins
of Government and suppression of
now Ideas cast a gloom over the spirit
of the empire. And little as we know
the new characters on the Chinese
stage, it Is lair to believe that both
extremes conservative and progres
sive will hold themselves In check,
nnd will wait to see where the Gov
ernment Is tending. All depends on
events; it Is Impossible to state what
will happen; one can only speak of
probabilities.
"But tho tendency, whether calm
or violent, will. I feel sure, be toward
liberalism. These two deaths have
cleared the course for China. There
is much talk of antagonism toward
Manchu rule, yet that antagonism Is
a thing of recent years; it has been
greatly heightened by the relations
between the Emperor nnd his aunt,
tho Dowager. 1 believe now that that
antagonism will calm down for the
time, and will, If the new Govern
ment gives satisfaction, dlo out.
"The talk is of a Constitutional
Government. I think, and have al
ways thought, the Chinese well fitted
for It. Tb,ey have always appeared to
me to be born parliamentarians. Cer
tainly they are as well fitted for lib
eral institutions as any Oriental na
tion better fitted than the Turks or
Persians, ns well fitted, 1 think, as
tho Japanese. But I believe they will
model their Government on the Jap
anese Government, and that tho
stages of -heir progress generally will
be peaceful.
"The present Government has a
strong liberal party behind It, nnd the
radicals are too much in tho minority
now to do any harm. So many strong
men, both liberal and radical, are
with the Government that I do not
foresee a serious outbreak.'

VOODOO SIGN CAUSED SUICIDE.
Superstitious Test Applied to a Man Accused ol Murder Drives Kim to Deafe
ned Stain on the Weapon, Mistaken For Blood, is Really Rust.
Monticello, Ark. Suspicion of
murder having been confirmed against
him in the eyes of his neighbors by a
voodoo test, Louis Hursh, a farmer,
cut his throat and died In the pres
ence of the Coroner's Jury.
Samuel Haywood was tho man
whose murder was under investiga
tion. He was called to his front door
at night and killed with a charge of
buckshot. His wife had but a fleet
ing glance at the assassin and could
give no clew to his Identity.
Hursh was questioned about the
crime at the inquest, but protested
that he-had no knowledge of it. Mem
bers of the family swore that he was
at home when the shot was flrod, and
Hursh apparently had been elimin
ated from the list of suspects when
one of the jurymen, an aged negro,
spoke up.
"Try tho voodoo test on him,"
urged the negro.
"What's that?" Inquired the Coro
ner. "Get Hursh's gun and fire It off
again while he is standing by. If he
did the murder the gun will sweat
blood."
The Coroner was disinclined to
take this step, but others urged it on
him and he finally consented. Hursh
declared that It was a matter of in
difference to him whether tho test
was applied or not. He told where
his gun would be found, and it was
brought Into court.
The Coroner and Jury adjourned to
the woods near by, and the gun was
loaded and discharged. Hursh stood
by, apparently careless cf the results.
Following the firing of the -un the
Jurymen crowded around it tr exam
ine it for the sign. A murmur arose
among them, and the suspeu .e was
more than the prisoner could bear.
He turned to tho guu to examine It,
nnd the man who had suggested tho
voodoo tost pointed to a red otalri
near the muzzle of the weapon. Hursh
became agltattd and seemed on the
point of making a dash for llboty
when he was seized by a deputy.
Without further investigation tho
party filed back into the court room,
where in a few moments the Jury
held Hursh responsible for tho kill
ing, and Coroner Lewis signed tho
commitment.
When the prisoner saw that he was
to be sent to jail on tho strength of
the voodoo test he took a charp knife
from his pocket aud with one stroke
ended his life.
Subsequently more careful examin
ation of the red stain on the muzzle
of the gun was made and beyond any
doubt It was established lo be noth
ing but rust.
