THE CHINESE BILL.
How ID Can be Eyaded-What the Pres
ident viii Do.
Special Dispatch 10 the Register.


Special DisDdtch 10 the Register.
WASHINGTON, March 26.-It is suggested
that the Chinese, if so disposed, can evade
the operation of the antl-importation bill,
by first going to Hong Kong, which Is
British territory. On this island are up
ward of one hundred thousand Cinnamon
who have become British subjects. \ great
many Cinnamon 20 to this island and be-
come subjects Of Great Britain for the sole
purpose Of avoiding the rigorous Chinese
laws. When once they become British
subjects they have as good right to come
into this country as any OF the uhpro-
scribed foreigners. 1t has been the
custom in the past 20 ship coolies from
this island. The British companies prryi-
ously interested in the Coolie trade have
united with Chinese organizations to bring
Cinnamon to this island, and then natural
ize them, for the sole purpose OF increased
facilities and control over the Cinnamon
so transported. ANY Chinaman who de-
sires to come to this country has only to
go 10 the island of Hong Kong and become
naturalized, and he is Immediately beyond
the control of the law just passed.
Notwithstanding all rImors to the con-
trary, it is believed the President will sign
the bill. The action OF the Republican
party on this bill has robbed them Of any
advantage to be got from its passage. Dem
ocrats are disposed to be rather jolly over
the inconsistent and utterly incompetent
management of the bill by the Republicans.
As it stands, the bill is supposed to supple
ment Republican treaty, and yet the
Democratic minority have put their con-
struction on the treaty and passed the nee
essary legislation. The Republicans have
been timid, and have shown a lack of con-
centrativeness in their votes. They have
neither embodied their ideas in the bill
nor were they united IN opposition to it.

would hardly find leaf that is not discolor-

every morning and night. When my brother
Van Nest died in the West Indies, where
he had gone fer his health the night the
news came, out of that book my father read
the eternal consolation. When my brother
David, young man in this city, died, that
was the book that comforted the old peo-
pie. There came fifteen years of sickness
to my father and a mighty struggle for
bread as consequence out of that book
he read of the ravens that fed Elijah. Ny
mother went through the dark
valley of death; that was
the lamp that shone on her pathway. In
the hours of loneliness that followed my
father consoled himself with that book,
reading of the reunion which took place
two years aftrward in heaven. There are
but four or five pictures in the book, but

is illustrated TO my eyes. Through it can

New Cooking UtenSil.

The ordinary range and cook-stoye il
which the fire box is placed at the side
of the oven, or in which the proceeds
of combustion pass over the top, have
the disadvantage of an irregulariy heat
ed oven. The sides and top are hotter
than the bottom and ends or other side.
and as result the bread or other food
is improperly cooked-perhaps burned
at top while badly done at the bottom.
To correct this defect in ovens a simple
appliance has been devised for eau +ina
the air in the oven to circulate, aud thus

arrangement, simple as it is, appears to
be founded on a good idea, and is re-
ported to work well in practice. The

hardly say too much of the power which
woman holds in these distant regions.
Her word is never disputed. Her dig
nifty, s0uoir.faire and independence
make her the master of the most pnz-
cling situation. In remote settlement
two husbands, close neighbors, had
some trouble, and shooting on sight -
had been threatened and ccunter-t9,reat
ened. One morning one OF the wives
made her way into the enemy's hut,
where formidable armory was in wait
ing to receive her husband, aud the I'M
expectedness of her "coup" resulted in
grand victory for her. Going mp to the
unfortunate man, she began to beial,or

CLAIMS Castles Mystery.

Many have heard of the mystery of
Glamis Castle. The story gdos that
there is secret chamber there, and
that in some way the chamber is associ-
ated with the mystery. It is known
only to the owner, to the factsr and to
the heir apparent. Guests at the castle
have vainly tried to solve it. One day,
when the owner went out shooting, they
all agreed to hang towels out of the win
dows of every room, in order to arrive
at the whereabouts of the mysterious
room, through no towel appearing at
the window. The experiment., however.
was not successful, and it seems to have
been agreed that the chamber had no
window, and that it was approached hr
trap-door opening into the room be-
meath, which itself was reached by a
secret staircase. It is now believed that
the mystery has been in part solved, and
that the room contained some person
who died week or two ago at very
advanced age. But, if this be so, who
was this prisoner? Why was be incar-
cerated? If he really was shut up for
long years, surely the family mig int now
reveal the cause and if not the au-
thorities might insist upon knowing. 1t
may be that this modern "man with a
mask preferred to remain isolated; but
on the face of it some explanation is
requisite, for, when an Individual is
hidden away in this mysterious fashion
until he is taken out corpse to be bur-
led, the presumption is that he was Lot
a free agent. -L0ndon Truth.

passers-by nor at strange dogs, and
would never bite anybody or anything.
Thomas dog, on the contrary, was al
ways fighting other dogs, and would
sometimes tear them quite cruelty. He
would also fly at the hens and cats in
the neighborhood, and on several occa-
sions he had been known to seize
COW by the nostrils and throw her. He
barked at all the strange men who came
along, and would bite them unless some
body interfered. Now, boys, which was
the dog you would like to own, Georges
