Janan,s National Flower.

The cherry blossom is the national
flower of Japan, as the rose is of
England, the lily of France, the thistle
of Scotland, and the shamrock of Ire
land. On the Mikado's flags, pages and
carriages, and on the soldiers caps and
uniforms, you will see the open chrys-
anthemum. But the flower of the peo-
pie and the nation is the flower of the
blossoming cherry tree. The Japanese
cultivate all over Japan the sakura tree,
which is valued only for the beauty OF its
blossoms. From an entire tree you
could not get ripe cherries enough to
make pie; but the blossoms are massed
together on the boughs like clouds, and
the blooms are often as large as a rose.
Picnics in Japan are called "going to see
the flowers" In June millions of people
go out to sing and sport and laugh and
play under the cherry trees, or to catch
" the snow showers that do not fall from
the Skies" Some of the people become
so enchanted with the lovely blossoms
as TO even worship the famous old trees.

BERT HARRIS camped out in Logan
canyon, U. T.. About II o'clock at night
he awoke and discovered that he and his
bedding were being dragged down the
mountain side by a huge grizzly bear.
Harris was almost paralyzed by fear, but
managed finally to wriggle out of the quilts
drop to the ground and crawl away among
the rocks. The grizzly went some distance
with the bedding, but, finding that his ex
pected prey had escaped, he set up dis
NAL howl. Harris stayed shivering in
the canyon for the remainder of the
night.

FoR some unknown reason the Chi
nese Government recently issued a de-
cree commanding its subjects to abstain
from shaving the head for period of
100 days. Detected in the act of dis
obeying this arbitrary injunction, nearly
sixty persons in the city of Foochow
alone were sentenced to receive a casti-
cation with bamboo rods, and to pay a
fine amounting to about 1926 apiece.
Before liberation the heads OF the Of
tenders were carefully painted and var
nished, as warning to other rebellious-
ly-inclined citizens.

THE anthracite coal combination of
the United States is one of the monstrous
monopolies. The census bulletin No.
233 furnishes the following statistics of
the business for the census year 1879
80. The tons represent 1900 pounds
each: Number of separate collieries, 273;
production, 27,433, 1929 tons; value at
point of transportation, $40, 331, 981;
total number of men and boys, miners
and laborers, employed, SO, 239, of whom
47,410 are laborers. Total wages paid,
S21. $50, 100; average yearly income per
man, $359.0S; average monthly wages
per man, $42 33; per cent. of year in
which men are employed, 70.69. The
average yearly number of tons raised per
man-men and boys all being counted
as equal-has risen from 800 tons in
1870 to 454 tons in 1880. A portion of
this is due to more steady labor, por-
ton to the increased use OF steam-power,
and something to the increased efficiency
of the men. It is estimated that the
production of anthracite from the now
known fields will, after 1880, reach
1908, $40, 600 tons before exhaustion,
and that the output of 1879-'S0 may be
maintained LAG years.

THE mummies found recently Mt
Thebes in an extraordinarily -excellent
state of preservation were contempor-
aries of Moses. One of them was what
we Americans call the "remains of the
particular Pharaoh who made it uncom-
monty lively for the chosen people be-
fore they concluded to quit the land of
Egypt and the house of bondage. Sew
eral papyri, supposed to be of great his
torical value, are exhumed with the
company of Kings and Princes, some
thirty-six in all. These papyri have
not yet been deciphered. Should they
be, some additional mistakes of Moses
may be discovered.

A. H. Stephens and the Negro.

There are people who become honest
only when there is nothing more to
steal. That kind of forced virtue has
too many examples.
Mr.. Stephens has many stories to tell
of negroes, and one is of a famous cot
ton and chicken depredator, who since
the war met the ex-Vice President in the
road.
"Well, Thomas" was the kindly
SALVATION, 81 was sorry to hear you
had been in trouble about Mrs. Tripp's
chickens"
Yes, Mars. Alec, but 1 done quit
all dat now" said the negro, very peni-
tently.
How many did you take before you
stopped ?" asked Mr.. Stephens.
81 TUX all she had" was the perfectly
innocent reply.

The cause of the sudden recall home
of the Chinese students sent to America
TO be educated is at last satisfactorily
explained. The whole cause of COM
plant lay in the absence at the Univer-
sity of rat food. The authorities of the
Celestial empire never dreamed that the
bright youths of their land would be
weaned from their national dish on this
side of the water, and when the pig
tailed students wrote home that they
were dosed on hashy-hashy, hashy-
hashy every day the rage of the Chinese
officials knew no bounds. The pupils
complained that since their arrival not a
drop of rat soup nor morsel of fried,
stewed or roasted rodent had passed
their fevered lips, and they just couldn't
nor wouldn't stand it-so there, now
They even averred that the exercises
were opened in the morning with a ma
tional anthem, beginning: 3.
oh. hash, thou delight of my soul.
without thee this world would be gloomy:
How love thy sweet substance TO roll
Down into my inwards roomy!
Thou mixture mysterious, love
The fragrance of onions about thee,
And where'er on this earth may rove
pray may ne'er be without thee.
When this was interpreted IN the royal
court the decree went forth and the fest.
i've young men are now back in their
own land, where rats are as plenty as
oldest Masons are in America.

SUPPOSE Secretary Blaine and Presi-
dent Gartield's son should appear be-
fore the public managing a prize-fight,
with Secretary Kirkwood as referee,
what row there would be from Maine
to California This incredible sugges-
ton, however, has a parallel in recent
event among the British nobility. While
attending the Goodwood races, their
Graces, the Dukes of Portland and
Hamilton, found the Birmingham
Pet" and London pugilist i'll the
sporting circle, and between them made
up purse of 81 500 for fight. When
the races for the day We're over the two
Dukes selected party of choice sports
like themselves, adjourned TO a hollow
about mile from the course, and there,
the ring being made, and the colors OF
the rival fighters being tied to the
stakes, the fight began For about half
an hour the men afforded their noble
patrons much solid enjoyment by discol-
oring each others eyes, dislocating jaw
bones and plastering each others faces
with blood broken knuckles, the London
man getting much the worst of it, when
that chronic disturber of the gentleman s
pleasures at quiet, refined cock-fights,
dog-fghts and man-fghts, the police,
appeared. OF course a fight ensued at
the ring-side in defense of that fine old
British institution, the prize-ring, now
threatened with extinction. The con-
stables were countrymen and trained
only to cope with rural pumpkins and
Noah Claypoles; the Dukes audience
were London men-about-town. They
easily got the best of the clod-hopper
"cops" The constables came back re-
inforced, but their Graces of Portland
and Hamilton had had fun enough for
their money, so, throwing few pounds
to pay for the beer for the mob, they or
dered the ring to be broken up and the
money divided.

repetition of it by others. Capital
cases differ from others in this : that no
account is taken in them of the future
of the criminal. Reformation is not
contemplated. 1t would be manifestly
vain to hope for such an effect OF con-
finement upon lunatic. Hence he Ii a
specially fit subject for the extreme pen
atty of the law. The writer says: "But
in capital cases the only aim OF the law
is to destroy the offender, and remove
by his death 4 danger to society which
can be removed i'll no other way. The
danger to society from an insane muir
derer is mt least. as great AS from sane
murderer, and society has as much need
of protection in the one ease as in the
other. If il is vain to hope that the
sane murderer WHO is open to the effects
of milder penalties can be rendered
harmless while he lives, it is still more
so in the case of an insane murderer up
on whom milder penalties would have
no effect. Every argument that will ap-
ply in favor of the death penalty at all
will apply with greater force in the case
of the insane than in that of the sane,
with perhaps one seeming exception. J"

!, Tins evening at six O'Clock the steamer Vic
toria, with over 600 excursioaistsi on board,
was returning from Spring Bank. and when
near the Cove Railway bridge, one mile below
this city, the boat suddenly collapsed like an
egg shell and became total wreck, level with
the waters edge. All the passengers were in
stantly plunged into the stream, more than
half Of them being underneath the debris.
! The first news which reached the city was
brought by survivors. who struggled through
the streets wet and weary.
The news fell like q thunderbolt, and a
stampede took place for the spot. Arriving
there terrible sight met the view. Fifty or
sixty bodies had already been recovered and
were lyingon the green sward some distance
up the bank. ,at, a,y,.,{ ~, - 4 -.s.tt,s.
Those arriving from the city from every di-
rection crowded around. anxious to see il any
relatives were on board. Several hundred
families were represented on the excursion,
and the wall at the sight OF the victims was
heartrending. Fathers. mothers, brothers and
sisters rushed about panic-stricken, endeayOr-
ing 10 lOentlIy relatlVcS.
By seven o'clock about eighty bodies were
recovered from under the wreck, where tho
water was twelve feet in depth. Almost ev-
cry minute some victim was brought to the
surface and conveyed to the boat. iiAi J.
The steamer Princess Louise was early
brought to the spot and the victims placed on
the upper decks. Fires were lit on the bank
overlooking the river. and petroleum torches
were brought aud the search continued.
Ali is in the deepest confusion. The news
paper stats, like all else, are sadly democrat
lied. all having friends involved in the calam-
ity. The whole city seems almost demented
tonight.
The accident was entirely due to gross care
lessness. The boat was overcrowded to dis.
graceful extent. The manager, George Parish,
was expostulated with by several at Spring
Bank, and urged not to let the boat go out in
that overcrowded condition, but he is reported
to have replied. "All right, know my bust
ness" or something OF that sort. l'li fii
Mr.. Samuel Stewart. q stove merchant, one
of those who protested. left the boat at Spring
Bank with his family. Several hundred more
remained there, unable to get passage, and
had to walk home, distance of four miles,
tonight, no conveyance Of any kind being
available. i .i'it-t 4'lA]i .st - %
