Chinese Soldiers.

Captain Gill. OF the British Army, in
his narrative Of journey through
China and Eastern Thibet, gives the
following estimate Of TIE military
capacity OF the Chinese:
with European officers, as under
Col. Gordon, we know how well the
Chinese have fought. whilst, unlike
most Orientals, they have not been
utterly demoralized by check. Prop
erly led, they would make magnificent
troops, for by nature the Chinese are
singular!y ooedient 10 authority, aud
would not question TIE commands Of
those who had once established an H.
iluence over them. In this they are
like ether L ,sterns, but more than 9TH
ers their national character renders
them particularly incapable CT military
combinations. \ Chinaman can learn
anything, but he can conceive nothing.
Ee may rea lily be taught any number
of the most complicated military ma
neUvers, but place him in a position
slightly different from that which he
has learnt, and he will be found utterly
incapable OF conceiving any modifcA-
ton to suit the altered circumstances.
This national characteristic is the
growth of centuries of narrow educa-
ton; its roots are deeply seated, and lie
in the insane reverence for antiquity,
which is almost the beginning and end
Of CGinaran's belief. Prompt action,
readiness OF resource, ability to seiza
on the smallest advantage, or to neutral
ize misfortune, and the power to
evolve fresh combinations-these are
the qualities that make a soldier. and
these are the very qualities that cannot
co-exist with the Chinese want of origi-
nality. This is no unimportan! matter,
for it proves that as they are, tho Chi
nese cannot be feared as a military ma
ton, but that with a large number of
European officers, their almost unlimit-
ed numbers, their obedience o authority
and personal bravery, when properly
led, would make them almos. irresisti-
ble."

have gone to see and hear this cele-

Compulsory Savings.

The plan OF compelling laborers Of
all classes to lay by enough of their earn.
ings to provide for sickness and old age
has of late been advocated with consid-
cradle earnestness by certain English
writer's who urge that such savings be
kept and accumulated for them by the
government. It is scheme almost
visibly related to that of compulsory
education. It might do as protective
proposition in country in which prop,
erty is taxed, az in England and under
the provisions of poor law--the argu-
ment being, that unless the workmen
are forced to save something for them
selves while they are able the poor
rates may swallow up oil taxable prop
erty in the end.
But in country like France, much
more in one like the United States,
where there is no poor law, but the
helpless poor are supported by general
forms of charity, such scheme would
not appeal with any force whatever TO
the rich and well-to-do, since they have
no desire to be relieved from poor rates.
Besides, no law that could possibly be
exacted would make the French peo-
pie more frugal and thrifty than they
are now. They are saving by habit,
which has become second nature and
thrift has become a national trait.
Would that as much could be said for
the American people. For ali taat, a
plan hes been recently brought for,
ward in the French Chamber OF Depu.
ties, which not only compels workolcn
to set aside certain portion OF their
present earnings but also compels EN-
ployers and the government together
to contribute as much as the workmen
themselves. -Nass. Piouglmm.

A New TEAM.-A writer quoted in
the Home Journal says: Coming along
by rail from Rennes to Quimperle, in
France, noticed something at once
shocking and comical ia the way of
blowing. A peasant farmer had hitched
together his wife and an OK, and there
they were both hauling away vigor-
ously at the pillow, doing some very
tall pulling I assure you. 1t reminded
me of team" that I once saw at
Casteilemare, Italy. TO large wagon
resembling our customary "hay-rig.
ging" wagon, we're attached, all
abreast, a horse, good-sized COW, and
a wee little bit of a donkey! / defy
any one to excel that, except by the
addition Of peasant woman and dog!

How LITTLE Boy FACED DEATH
a ten year old, whose legs We're recent
ly cut off by train of cars in this city,
was too plucky to make any fuss over
the incident. When the little fellow
was taken home his legs hung limp,
but he did not complain, But the ten
der look he gave to those by his side
told plainly that he was suffering great
agony. After the doctor had dressed
his wounds he called his parents, sis
ters and brothers to his bedside. kissed
one and all farewell and left tear upon
their cheeks. A second time he called
his mother to his side, placed his little
arms around her neck and said: Moth
er 1 am going to die. Please forgive
me for not minding you" With this
the little fellow fell back, and as the
mother said, Yes, my angel" and
took another look at his face. she found
him dead and beyond al pain and suf-
feriug.-DuJuQue Times.
