young men arc more to be blamed While
ara dependent on parents than

deny the fact that too many young

that should be changed. And would
not this secret agency 90 this work.
If clerk is needed, the answer could
DO given as to the standing of am
young man in tho place where he re-
sidos. How sad it would sound to
have report that Mr.. A. has fond
ness for leisure; never looks after EN-
ployment and is never employed.
Smokes cigarettes constantly; weuld
use up small salary in this hsatlen
ish luxury; occasionally takes dram;
keeps company where there is always
strong shade of the hoodlum element
to be found. Dresses well up in recent
fashions; his sources of revenue are un-
known; and in short he is one of the
ruling young men. How would this
report. And yet every day some
young man receives this reflection from
some one who Is interested in having
young men raised up ia a sound and
correct principle. In self defence
young men should see to it that they
are not of this class. That no man
shall judge them from such a stand
point. Let the apparent secret cover
ing of their character be the desired
signal to its greatest publicity. oa
this rock young man may fix his
individual standing that wouli defy
the closest criticism.

Piracy in the China Seas.

From advices just received at Lloyd's it ap- pears that the German bark Occident, Cap tain Reuter-, 248 tons, from Hong Kong for Annoy. was attacked by pirates in the China Seas on the 29th of April, and suffered loss to the extent of $1,OOO. The matter being reported at Hong Kong by steamer which spoke her shortly afterward, the German man-of-war Freya proceeded to the scene of ter, but no trace of the pirates could be found. It was believed that the latter in tended to get hold of the German schooner Hecht, Captain Platz, 358 tons, which was expected to have a valuable cargo of opium and a considerable amount of treasure, for Takao. The two vessels are painted exactly alike, and they were fixed to leave about the same time. The Occidental had only an or dinary Bangkok cargo on board, consisting of timber, teak plank, etc., and was not in attack that has been reported for nearly twelve months
