KATIE,s ANSWER.


Och, Katie's n rogue, II is true,
But her oyes, like the sky, are 80 blue,
An her dimples so swate,
An her ankles so nate;
She dared, and she bothered me too.
TIL one mornin' we wlnt for a ride,
With Katie dcmure as bride by my side
The darllnt, she sat,
Wild the wickedest hat
Meath a purity girls chin liver tied.
An my heart, arrah, thin how 1t bate;
For my Katie looked so tomptin' an swate
Wild cheeks llko the roses,
An oil the red poses
That grow in her garden so nate.
But sat just as mute as the dead
Till she said, with toss of her head
"If I'D known that to-day
Ye'd have nothing to say,
I'd have gone wild my cousin, instead"
Thin fclt myself grow very bowld,
For knew she'd not scold If towld
Nv the love in my heart,
That would niver depart,
Though lived to be wrinkled and old.
An said: "If dared to do SO,
I'D lit go Nv the baste, an I'D throw
Both arms round her waist,
An be stalln' II taste
Nv thin lips that were coaxln' me so."
Thin she blushed more Elegant red,
AS she said, wldout raisin' her head,
An her eyes lookln' down,
Meath her lashes so brown,
"Would ye like me to drive, NIisther TedP''

where she was brutality treated. She
was insensible for an hour and half,
and upon recovering consciousness she
managed to get away from the negro and
resch her home. She died from the ef-
fects of her injuries this afternoon. A
negro named Smothersshas been arrested
and fully identified as having been on
the spot where the woman was attacked
few minutes before he came along. The
indignation of the people at the crime is
very great. A hundred men marched to
the seventh district station house at mid
night last night and demanded the
prisoner, but he had been removed to
another place. A large force of police
men is now required TO guard the pris-
oner and save him from being lynched-
OF minor crimes there has been no end
during the past winter. In several in
stances men passing throuth the Smith
sonion or agricultural department
grounds in the evening have been seized
| by negroes and stripped of all their
/ clothing. Burglaries are of nightly oc-
currence, and highway robberies fire.
quent Rarely is policeman to be found
or beard of when crimes of this kind are
committed, and this not the fault of the
police department, which is singularly
efficient IS far asitliSfurnished with men
The trouble is caused by the long beats
over which each patrolman
has TO walk In some in
stances beat is nine miles long in un
frequented and sparsely built parts of the
city. The fault is that of congress
which determines how much money
shall be spent for police. Two years age
} when there was q series of crimes SINH
lar to those which have recently occurred
there was serious talk of a vigilanct
committee. The temper of the people o
Capitol bill is now such that an organ
| iZation of that character viii certainly
: be formed unless some measure of pre-
vention is adopted by the authorities.

CHINESE IN NEW YORK.
The Influx from CalifOrnia-Demand for
Servants.

The Influx from acknowledgements for
Servants.
From the New York Herald.
There was lull in the arrivals of Chi
nese from California yesterday, as only a
few Mongols were noticed leaving the
train in Jersey City. Those who ar
rived during the early part of the week
left their quarters in Mott street and
went to different parts of the city.
Wagons, loaded with luggage and Chi
namen, were continually leaving the
little colony, many of them going to
Jersey City. Woo KEGS hotel did not
present such an animated scene as on
Thursday, although several loads of
groceries were received there for the use
of the expected emigrants. Rents in the
vicinity of Mott street are gong up
steadily. The Cinnamon are offering
large sums to the owners of houses, but
| in most cases without avail. Even In
| the Mulberry street Italian quarters
there is no room for the Orientals.
Meanwhile the newcomers saunter
among the tenements of their own quar-
ter or promenade Chatham street or the
Bowery with an air of comfort which an
exile of any other country would hardly
assume. They trust implicitly in their
shrewd countrymen who came here be
| fore them, and who are doing all they
can for their future comfort.
During yesterday morning a number
of ladies called at Hop KEGS and Woo
KEGS to learn more about the Chinese
The majority presented copies of yester
DAYS Herald and said that Mrs. Sargent'i
statement was 80 convincing that they
intended TO employ Chinese servants ii
their households. One lady from Slater
Island stated that her brother was Cali
fornian and praised the Chinese as do
mestics. Their knowledge of cookery
was marvellous, she said, and severa

wealthy families in Riverdale receive

were very much pleased with the result
of their visit, and number of refugee
were engaged on good salaries.

THEORY OF LIFE.
Scientific American,

The late Prof Faraday adopted the
theory that the natural age of man is
100 years. The duration of life he be-
lieved to be measured by the time of
growth. In the camel the union takes
place at eight, in the horse at five, IN the
lion at four, in the dog at two, in the
rabbit at one. The natural termination
is five removes from these several points.
Man being twenty years in growing,
lives five times twenty years-that is,
100; the camel is eight years in growing,
and lives forty years and so with other
animals The man who does not die OF
sickness lives everywhere from so to 1OO
years. The professor divides life into
equal halves-growth and declIne-aDd
these into infancy, youth, verility and
age Infancy extends to the twentieth
year, youth to the fiftieth, because it is
in this period the tissues become firm
verility from fifty to seventy-ive, during
which the organism remains complete
and at seventy-five old age commence:
to last longer or shorter time as th'
diminution of reserved forces Is hasten

That supply Wen.


From present indications il would
seem that the city of Emporia has an
elephant ON its hands of very large di-
mansions, in the shape of a supply -
well, whose qualifying adjective is likely
TO prove a sad missioner. The stipuiat-
ed depth of twenty-six feet has been
reached by the contractors, who expected
to begin the work of laying the wall
this morning, had they not been de
layed by threatened giving way
of the wooden curbing, which
is badly sprung by the heavy
weight pressing in upon it from all sides.
y nice, clean stratum OF gravel has been
reached, which will afford good foun-
dation for the wall, and everything seems
quite promising with the exception OF
the water supply, which, in our view
will never prove equal to the demand with
out recourse TO the river. This will in
volve the city in litigation with Mr.. So
den, whose rights, 1t is claimed, will be
infringed upon by such action. The
present supply of water, rs ii is accumu
latcs from time to time, is very easily ex
hausted in few moments by small
Monitor engine, aud as we have no rea
son To believe That the volume can b,
increased, save by drawing direct from
the river, we incline to the view that thC
well can never be of any practical use Il
the city save as reservoir of water to b.
derived from outside sources.
In conversation, however, with Mr.
Whhtlesey. the other day, lac expressed
opinions quite contrary to those ad
vaheed above, and, we have 10 doubt
with equal honesty of conviction. HI
regards the prospects for securing waite
in sufficient quantities better now thar
at any time since the beginning of worl
at The well, and thinks by constructing
smaller well atthe head of the sluic
near by, the contents of which can b
conveyed TO The main well by means @
syphon, an ample supply of water ca
be obtained for all purposes excepting i
case of fire, when the river viii have t
be depended upon.
In our treatment of this question "
wish, AT all times, 10 afford room for u
honest difference Of opinion, and mott
ing can be further from our purpos
than to impuga tbs motives of or cast r
1 Elections upon tie integrity OF any on
connected, in an official way, with d
enterprise. Bat We cannot be persuade
: that the city council, as a body, have
carefully and thoroughly investigate
this matter as they severally would ha'
J done in the case of a personal Inves
neni, and are open at least to the char:
/, of incompeiency in The management
> this important undertaking.
