He Worked His Scheme.
He was about tho fattest roly-poly of
a boy that one would see in a long
day's walk. As he waddled along ex
citedly attempting to whistle after a
York and Dauphin street ear he
aroused the laughter of all who hap
pened to be in sight of him. says a
Philadelphia paper. The conductor of
the ear finally saw him and yanked the
bell to stop. The fat boy puffed up aud
rolled on board. "Pretty hard fur a fat
feller to have to run fur a car!" he
puffed, grinuing good-naturedly upon
the earful of passengers. Everybody
grinned back at him, and two or three
passengers squeezed up to give him a
seat. He sat down, with his round face
still teaming good-humoredly upon his
fellow passengers. The latter watched
him amusedly. The hoy carried a small
basket on his arm, and after a while,
when he had recovered his breath, he
took a handful of chocolate candies
from this basket and walked along the
aisle, giving eacli passenger a piece.
Then he resumed the seat, and the pas
sengers, laughing across the car to each
other, began munching their candy.
The fat hoy waited until nearly all the
candy had been eaten, whereupon he
rose agaiu and with outstretched palm
went the rounds again saying, "One
cent apiece, please." The passengers
were simply dumbfounded, but they
had all eaten their candy, and there
was nothing for them to do but "cough

about 1!) cents, aud at the next street

CHINESE IN AMERICA.
Nearly All tlio Celestials in This Couptry
Are From Cunton.
Rev. George H. Gutter son, Now
England Secretary of the American
Missionary Association addressed the
Women's Missionary Society at St.
Louis 011 tlio status of tlio Cliiueso iu
tlio United States.
According to the census of 1890, said
Mr. Gutterson, tliero were 100,175
Chinese in the United States. They
are found in every State in the Union.
The largest number, however, namely,
72,172, is in California, and more than
one-third of this number in one city,
namely, Sau Francisco. A conserva
tive estimate of Chinese in certain of
our larger cities gives the following
results: St. Louis, 38U, divided into
the "Jen and Lee" families, "Free
masons" and "Highbinders;" the latter
class are commonly supposed to be
bound together by certain oaths, iu
the carrying out of which they do not
stop even at murder. They, with the
"Freemasons," are not on good terms
with the "Jen and Lee" factions. The
last census allows 2GIB as the number
of Chinese in New York and Brook
lyn, yet there are supposed to l>o at
the present time nearly 10,000 in the
two cities. Philadelphia reports 2000,
but it is the trading headquarters for
something like 5000, who corao from
all parts of Pennsylvania and New
Jersey. There are about 800 in Bos
ton proper, and probably 500 or 000
more who go there to trade. There
are but throe or four Chinese women
in Philadelphia and six in Boston.
The Chinese in the United States
are nearly all from the province oi
Canton. The reason of this is prob
ably duo to the fact that this was the
first district open to Europeau trade.
The principal occupation of these peo
ple is that of lauudrymen. They are
also employed iu importing Chinese
groceries, market gardening, paper
hanging and painting; they also make
cigars. Very few have l'ound their
way into American families as servants.
One of them in New York invented
and pateuted a laundry stove which he
manufactures iu his own fouudry.
Five young Chinamen have been put
into the Baldwin Locomotive Works in
Philadelphia, whero they are learning
tho machinist's trade. Tlio general
opinion io that they make good citi
zens, rarely figuring in polico courts,
though tlioy are sometimes arrested
for playing "fun-tan," said to be simi
lar to poker. Sometimes, also, they
are arrested for smuggling opium or
their own countrymen across the bor
der.
There are very few Chinese children
iu tho public schools. Philadelphia
reports five, St. Louis noue, New York
about half a dozen. Tho latest statis
tics show that there are in America 291
schools and institutions for uplifting
these Mongolians, eleven denomina
tions being represented in this work,
iu which tlio Baptists lead with sixty
nine; Presbyterians, fifty-eight; Con
gregationalists, forty-seven. There
are twenty-nine undenominational en
terprises. In Greater Now York there
are thirty-3even schools; Boston has
ten schools and missions. The total
number of Chinese reached by these
various mission enterprises is 732-1.
Those who have become Christians
give very generously toward the sup
port of mission work for their country
men, both in this country and in China.
Ninety-threo members of mission
schools in St. Louis contributed last
year §2OO to the support of Christian
institutions.—Springfield Republican.
MPII as llouHo-AVorkcra.
It is an interesting development of
the woman-sufi'rnge agitation that Miss
Alice Stono Blackwell, editor of the
Woman's Journal, Boston, is devot
ing a good deal of her time and at
tention to finding situations for men
as kitchenjmaids. She says that the
chief difficulty she meets in the way
of getting housework for her proteges
is the conservatism of woman.
In her experience there are always
more young men willing to take do
mestic service than there are Yankee
housewives willing to give them a
trial. She affirms that it is as hard to
convince some women that men can
do housework as it is to convince
some men that a woman can be a
principal of a public school. But, she
continues, the women who venture
upon the new departuro are sometimes
rewarded by finding iu it a perfect
solution of the vexed "domestic prob
lem." Mrs. Isabel C. Barrows, who
is one of tho innovators, proclaims
that tho young man now doing her
housework is the best help she has
had in thirty years. The mau giving
such distinguished satisfaction is a
college graduate, who finds his edu
cation most useful in the kitchen.
Cover During Sleep.
Tho reason that it is necessary to bo
well covered wh'le sleeping is that
when tho body lies down it is the in
tention of nature that it should rest,
aud tho heart especially should be re
lieved of its regular work temporarily.
So that organ makes ten strokes a
minute less than when the body is in
au upright posture. This means 000
strokes in sixty minutes. Therefore,
iu the eight hours that a mau usually
spends in taking his night's rest tho
heart is savr<l nearly 5000 strokes. As
it pumps six ounces of blood with each
stroke, it lifts 30,000 ounces less of
blood iu this night session than it
would during the day, when a man is
usually in au upright position. Now,
the body is dependent for its warmth
on the vigor of the circulation, and as
the blood flows so much more slowly
through the veins when one is lying
down the warmth lost in the reduced
circulation must be supplied by eytra
coverings.

Gained 22 Pound# In 5 Week!.
From the By-Slander, Macomb, 111.
Alderman Louis W. Camp, of our city, has
quite astonished his friends, by a remark
able gain in weight. Ho has gained 22 pounds
hi Ave weeks. Those of his friends
who do not know tho facts of his sick,
ness will read with interest tho following:
"I was broken down in health and utter
ly miserable," suid Mr. Camp to our re
porter. "I was unable to work much of the
time and so badly ailiieted with u form of
stomach trouble that life was a veritable
nightmare.
"I tried various remedies, but duriDgthe
six months of my sickness I obtained no re
lief. I had alwuys been a robust, healthy
man and sickness bore heavily upon me.
"About two years ago I was advised to
try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Palo Peo
ple. I purchased one box and rocoivod so
much beneilt that I used five more aud was
entirely cured. I gained twenty-two pounds
in fire weeks. Since I stopped taking the
pills I have scarcely had an ache or pain.

"Dr. Williams' Pink Pills restored me to
health and I most heartily recommend
them."

How Thirteen Pursued Comedian Bon
iface All Through a Journey.
George C. Boniface, Jr., is one of
the few comedians who are not super
stitious. He does not like the number
13, however. Boniface lives at Pleas
ure Bay, and since the trolley cars run
between that point and Asbury Park
he spends a great deal of time on them.
A few days ago, while standing on the
platform of the car, he noticed the num
ber 13 painted on it. "Good Lord, num
ber 13!" exclaimed the comedian, and
hastily reaching Into his vest pocket, he
pulled out a rabbit's foot and rubbed it
vigorously on the lapel of his coat. The
conductor smiled anu said:
"You're a trifle supersititioua, aren't
you ?"
"Oh, not very," replied Boniface.
"I thought you'd like to know," con
tinued the conductor, carelessly, "that
you're the thirteenth fare I've had this
trip."
Boniface looked uneasy and made an
other dive for the rabbit's foot. On
reaching Asbury Park the car encoun
tered a funeral. Half a dozen carriages
had passed when the motorman rang
his gong and started ahead. The driver
of the seventh carriage pulled up his
horses. Bonll'ace Jumped about ex
citedly.
"Stop the car!" he yelled.
"What for?" asked the conductor.
"What for?" shrieked the comedian.
"Why, we'll go right through the funer
al, and that is the most unlucky thing
you can do."
But the car wont on, and Boniface,
swearing loudly, jumped off before the
last of the funeral had crossed.
"Pretty big funeral," said the con
ductor to another passenger.
"Not very," was the reply. "I only
counted thirteen can-laces."
A Suit Without a Parallel.
Memphis, Tenn., lawyers have
brought suit In Weakley County for
damages for defamation of character,
alleged to be contained In an epitaph
cut on a tombstone. Such a cause for
action Is probably unheard of In the
annals of the courts of the country. In
December, 1800, L. B. Cate was shot
and killed by one BUI Pen!c. Penio
was Indicted and tried on the charge of
murder. He was defended by the same
lawyers who are now acting for him
In this civil suit. The accused was ac
quitted on the plea of self-defense.
The parents of the deceased, L. B. Cate,
thought to honor his memory by erect
ing a suitable tombstone over his
grave, and having cut In the marble a
legend setting forth some of the circum
stances of his taking off. The follow
ing was cut on the tombstone:
"L. 8., son of J. C. and L. J. Cate.
Born April 10, 1870. Married Willie
Freeman December 21,1587. Was shoi
and killed by Bill Penlc December 11,
1S90; caused by Penlc swearing to a
Ue on Cate's wife. Aged 20 years 8
months and 1 day."
It is alleged by Penlc that tills stone
was lettered by J. 11. Hutchinson, ol
Martin, and It Is alleged that the stone
was exposed to public gaze In the yard
of Hutchinson for quite a while before
It was erected at the head of the grave
containing the remains of the deceased
Cate. Since the vindication of Penic
by the trial jury In Weakley County he
has sought reparation for the wording
of this tombstone. The eomplalnani
seeks damages from the sculptor and
the father of the deceased la the suin

A unique souvenir of the great Kapo
leon Is kept In the family of bis old
nurse and attendant, being now in the
possession of Prof. Bagley, of Abilene,
Kan. He is a native of the island of
St. Helena, and his mother was one of
the Intimates of the guardians of Na
poleon. When the Emperor lay dying
his old nurse stole to his side and
clipped from his head a lock of hair.
Part of the lock she gave to Mr. ltag
ley's mother and she gave it to her sou.
It is kept in a bottle and Is black and
gray, with a trace of brown. For forty
years the bottle has been kept in a dark
room, that the hair may not be injured
by the light. There are about forty
strands in all. The relic is held at a
great value by the possessor. He has
also some cloth from the coffin, a medal
given by Napoleon and some other
minor souvenirs from the island of St.
Helena.
The only other portion of the body cf
Napoleon known to be on this continent
is a single hair that Richard Watson
Gilder once owned. He kept it In his
watch case. When the watch was re
paired he forgot to tell the jeweler of
the precious contents. When he went
to get it he asked: "Did you find any
thing in the case?"
"Yes," replied the workman, "there

looking like nothing so much as the

These bubbles, some of them, attain a
diameter of five or six feet before they

No Highways in China.
Cyclists la China lead an untram

of road regulations outside the towns
whatever, for the simple reason that
the roads are undefined, being neither
bounded by fence nor hedge. While
the farmer has the right to plough up
any road passing through his land,
drivers of vehicles have an equal right,
and they exercise it, too, of traversing
