Concerning future rewards and punish-

occurred recently in . court out there, whsn
the testimony Of . Chinaman was objected 10
Of the ground that he did not understand or
regard the obligation Of an oath. He was
'John, do you know anything about God?"
"No, me no belly well know him."
Shave You no joss in China?"
lob, yes; got heap Joss"
"Where do you 20 when you di.?"
"He 60 to San Francisco"
"No, You don't understand me. When
Chinaman quit washee all time, and no live
any more, where he go?"
"Oh, yes; M sabe now. If he belly good
man he 60 uppee sky. II he belly bad man,
he 60 luppee down hellee all same Mexican
man,"
The court wss satisfied with this orthodox
statement, and admitted his testimony.

An instrument has been invented in France
for aiding in the resuscitation Of persons
apparently drowned, or who from any other
cause have been temporarily deprived Of
animation. 1t consists Of q cylinder Of sheet
iron large enough TO contain the body OF an
adult person. 1t is closed at one end, and
the inanimate individual is inserted, feet
foremost, in the receptacle, as far as the
neck, round which there Is placed a padded
diaphragm, fastened to the cylinder % - to
be air-tight. An air-pump, attached to an
opening in the tube creates . partial vacuum,
and then the outer atmosphere, by Its own
pressure, forces its way into the lungs by the
mouth and the nostrils, which are LEFT ex-
posed. By a reversed action of the pump,
the air is allowed to re-entsr the cylinder,
and respiration 10 thereby ~re-established. A
glass plate inserted in the iron casing enables
the operator to watch the movements of the
chest, which rises and falls a. in life, with
the working Of the pump. The action may
be repeated eighteen tines in . minute, an
exact imitation Of natural breathing being
thus produced. w

The White House is the greatest residence
in America. 1t has cost more than the Stew
art mansion on Fifth Avenue, New York, or,
with its rebuilding, refurnishlng, etc., about
$1,7O0.OOO. The original cost in 1909, was
about $4,000 it was begun in that year,
occupied in 1900, rebuilt in 1912, reoccupisd
in 1918, and its porticos completed as late as
1926. The east room was finished only if
teen years ago. Every n of our presidents
except Washington, have lived in this great
house, and he has poked his horses head in
to its portals to look up At the workmen
plastering on the scaffo'd. An Irish archi-
tect named Heber, direct from Dublin pia
Charleston, took the award of $500 for the
design, and he built and rebuilt 1t, and lies
buried in the Catholic cemetery here and his
descendants are respectable lawyers and citi-
zens Of this place. A building for . private
residence Of ITO feet front BY 90 feet front,
with one room In it s0x40, may yet attract
republican attention; its vestibule within
the front door is alone 6Ox4O feet. Twenty
acres Of garden and park immediately en-
close it, and on either side, separated by only
$50 feet, are buildings costing from seven to
twelve million dollars each. Yet, in all its
apparent antiquity, how new! The lawn is
still a naked plain, marching off to the Pote-
mac, like = desert coming to the palace
stairs. Like Versailles in the time Of Louis
XIV, Washington Is = government creation,
and this White House is hoary only by events.
The presidents Office, which 10 In the second
story is also the cabinet room, and is not a
very large apartment for the White House,
although So or 40 feet in depth BY, perhaps,
80 feet in width, with a high ceiling. A long
table is in the middle Of the floor, with
leather-seated chairs around 10; the two
windows have long lambrequin curtains of .
dark blush gray color. A large map Of the
United States Is on the wall. The carpet Is
of red tint with large figures. The general
effect OF tho room IS one enters Is that Of .
library without books.
