Chinese Question In the Cabinet

ahthGho NSuCAAAOA 81 AAC StAOAAGAs
WA=HIxaroN, December l4.-The
Chinese question was the leading topic Of
attention to-day at the Cabinet session
Recent reports to the President from San
FrSncisco in addition to several papers
on the subject, brought to his attention
at various times. were laid before the
council and made the matter Of very
earnest consideration, 1t was explained
at the meeting that the report Of yester.
terday from "SiI Companies" was an ex-
Aggeration Of disorder; but the President
has been advised from several sources Of
the condition Of affairs which may eventu.
ate in serious troubles. The feeling is
therefore entertained by the President and
members Of the Cabinet that necessity ex.
ist. for taking careful view Of The subject,
and hence rather a prolonged discussion
OF the problem to day. No conclusion
wAs reached and the consideration Of the
subject will be continued ut smother meet
:nr. ltcan be said that the members Of
the government are not unmindful Of the
ability OF the proper civil authority in
San Francisco 10 prevent outrages Of the
kind alleged to have been perpstraled,
but it may be requesite to give assistance
II requested; In which case the naval force
IN the Pacific would, in all probability,
be directed 10 go strengthen the local an'
thoriIies as TO poeyent the recurrence ol
any serious trouble that might happen
The question Of the treaty relations
between the two countries was considered
The views Of some OF the members OF the
Cabinet seem to be that some modifca'
!ton might be made to the limit Of the
Importation Of Chinese. 1t is not un'
likely that the President will make the
'Chinese question the subject Of special
message 10 one or both houses OF Con-
gFess At the same time.
The Cabinet gave attention to our Mex
lCAn rslations, The question OF recog

4 Sympathetic Porter.

A few days ago a lady living with her

Popping the Question. :

One of the Danbury young men who
had occasionally escorted young lady
home on Sunday evenings, and went in
for lunch, after performing both services
last Sunday night, suddenly said to her:
"Do you talk in your sleep?"
"Why-no,' she answered, in surprise.
do you walk in your sleep?" he next
inquired.
"No, sir
He moved his chair an inch closer, and
with increased interest asked:
"DO you snOre?"
NO." she hastily replied, looking un-
easily at him.
At this reply his eyes fairly sparkled
His lips eagerly parted, and as he gave
his chair another hitch, he briskly in
quired:
"Do you throw the combings from your
hair in the wash basin?'
"What's that?' she asked, with blank
face. - ..-
He repeated the question, although
with increased nervousness
"No, DON'T" she answered, in some
haste. Again his chair went forward,
while his agitation grew so great that he
could scarcely maintain his place upon it,
as he further asked:
$50. "Do you clean out the comb when YOU
are through?"
"Of course I do" she said,. staring at
him with all her mi ght =,
In an instant he was on his knees be-
fore her, his eyes ablaze with flame, and
his hands outstretched.
