THE WAY THE WIND Blows
Yank says that when gale is blow.
ing at Virginia the course of the wind
is down six mile canyon, up Carson
river to Gold Canyon, and up the
latter past Silver City to Gold Hill,
thus almost completing a circle.
When Yank is IN Virginia and his
hat is carried away by Washoe
zephyr, he don't go down into Six
mile canyon to look for it-by no
manner of means. He pursues the
better policy of starting down Gold
canyon, and he says he Is sure to
meet it coming up.

A MIRACLE by PAGANINI.-He was
n wonderful fellow, and some called him
the devil. lie was even imprisoned and
had his violin taken away from him be-
cause he was supposed to be such a
dangerous character. One day great
lady in Rome said to him, "Signor Pa
ganini, | understand that you can ex-
ecute an air on one string Of your vo-
lin" Madame, you have heard the
truth" replied the great vrtuoSo.-
Viii you allow me and my friends to
hear you 20 " Certainly" So the great
lady gave reception, at which Paga-
mini, was invited to perform his violin
trick. After actually playing the pray
er from Rpssini's Moses in EqV31I on
one string, Paganni was thanked by
his hostess, who said, Now, Signol
Taganin, as you do wonders on one
string, can you perform on no string
at all ?" " Most assuredly," answered
Paganini. "Will you, for me ?p "With
pleasure" A day was set, the great
lady invited number Of friends TO as
sist at the miracle, and when all were
assembled Paganini failed to appear
News CT me soon afterward that he had
that day lett Rome. This was his per
formanee without any string, and his

THE Ancient FAMILY OF CoNFUcI-
Us.-The tenacity with which the Chi
nese cling to their ancient institutions is
illustrated in a recent imperial decree
published in the Pokin Gozette, announ-
ing the death the Duke k'ung Siangk'o,
lineal successor of the sage Coniucius,
and ordering the proper Board to report
rs to the marks of imperial favor to be
accorded in connection with the funeral
rites. Confucius was born SOL years
B. c., and the first hereditary distinction
bestowed upon the senior member Of the
house was conferred B. c. 202. \ re-
cord containing the pedigree Of the fami-
~ for sevenV-one generations was pub
lished in the last century, giving hiogra-
phica sketches Of each individual in the
long succession Of the principal represon-
tatyes of the house from the death Of its
founder; and written records OF the lives
of their successors to the present time
are doubtless in existence The title Of
the head Of the family has varied SO me-
what under the different dynasties, but
for the past eight centuries he has borne
designation of rank which is equiya-
lent TO Duke in the English language
The descendants of Confucius form a dis
tinct class in Chinese society, somewhat
like the Levitical order Of the ancient
Jews and in 1871 there were II 600
males alive bearing the family name, the
most Of them Of the escventy-fourth gener-
alton. The late K'ung Siang-k'o, as
head Of the Confucian Khan, enjoyed The
dignities and emouments Of noble Of
the first class, tho family estate covering
m area OF not less than 165 600 acres
The functions of the Dukes of K'ung are
o. strictly sacerdota character, aud
they are not at liberty even to visit the
capital without express permission from
the throne.
