The President has already received a
number of petitions demonstrating
against his signature to the anti-Chinese
bill. Most of them came from Massa-

though some are from the Middle States.
The same grounds are taken as during
the debate in Congress, that the mea-
sure is against the cherished traditions
of the country and in violation of exist

finds place in the Century. 1t is the

A SKELETON IN A TREE.

Two men who live in the northern
part of Gilmer county, near the Cohut-
tab range, made a startliag discovery
few days ago. They had chased dep
redating fox to his covert, which proved
to be an immense hollow tree trunk,
charred and blackened by forest fires.
1t was comparatively but huge stump,
being not more than twenty feet high,
evidently having been snapped in twain
by some fierce hurricane which had
swept that way. The willy robber of
the hennery had entered an aperture
near the base of the tree and all efforts
at smoking him out had proved futile.
AS last resort one of them suggested
barring the fox's mode of entrance and
then telling the tree, which, owing to it's
aged and decayed condition, would be
an easy task.
This plan was adopted and few Wig
orous strokes of their axes sent the old
shell crashing to the earth, and Reynard,
in endeavoring to make his escape, was
summarily dispatched with an axe. AS
they were preparing to take their de-
parture one of the men discerned some
thing white cleaning in the old, hollow
stump, and upon examination was hor-
rified to behold the bleached bones of a
dismembered human skeleton. The
men were considerably startled by their
strange discovery and on closer inspec-
ton q powder-horn and bullet pouch
were brought to light, together with a
few mouldering articles of raiment, but
nothing else was found that would iden-
tify as to who the person had been.
Many conjectures have been made as to
how the skeleton came there, and how
long it had reposed, in this strange mau
soleum, the affair being profound mys
tery.-North Georgia Citizen.

DRYING HER HUSBANDS GRAvE.-A
Chinaman died soon after his marriage
with young and lovely woman. As he
was dying his wife was loud in ner pro-
tsstations of grief and her determination
not to be married again. The husband
was not unreasonable, he only asked
that If she did take another spouse she
would wait till the earth upon his grave
was dry. He died and was buried, and
many young and handsome bachelor of
the Province of Shatung were present at
his funeral. Fine listened to no sutton,
for woman's heart is tender, and she
could not so forget the loved one. Daily
she stole to his grave. She wept. but no
tear fell upon the soil, she took good care
of that. At last, after a few days,
Chwangstz happened to pass and saw her
tanning not herself, bnt the damp earth.
He asked the reason. She told him OF
her husbands last request, and begged
him to assist her. She offered him fan
to assist her, and there they sat to fan
away the moisture; the grave was so long
a drying. II From the Temple Bar.

A year ago Jennie Cramer was the
most beautiful girl in New Haven, and
to-day if Gabriel should blow his trum-
pet he wouldn't be able to get enough of
her together to make quorum. Girls
who are taking the chances that poor
Jennie took every day by taking wine
baths inside, bought for them by young,
brainless spendthrifts, had best think
over the case of poor Jennie and mag
inc how they would like to be analysed
the way che has been.

lies ought to know, could be greatly ben

when her body was cut into thousand
pieces to find out what allied her. About
the first step young girl takes that

knows more than her mother, and that
the old lady is "back NUMBER" and
don't know anything about the fun of
being out nights and swifling beer,
swallowing high wines, and in buggy
with a horse that will drive himself,
whether anybody has hold of the lines or
not. The girl is liable to be deceived in
the old lady. That estimable person no
doubt knows all about it. and knows
what fool 1t makes of girl.
If Jennie Cramer's mother had taken
her girl across her knee the first time she
rebelled, and taken q bed Stat and
knocked the wind out of her paper bus
tie, and spread the hustle all over the
small of her back, and sat her down in
hard bottom chair so hard that the fill

Jennie would be alive to-day, and about
this time in the afternoon she
would be wiping the dinner
dishes and singing Mother, lie the

her fathers stockings; or, if her mother
had taken her by the hand and kindly
told her that these Malleys were cou-

One of the ksenest ana nost mercile,s
OF Parisian usurors some Atty years ago
was one Guibert. who not only lent
money at extortionate prices and COM
PEELED his victims to take part of the
loan in bad pictures and worthless goods
but had engaged in absolute swindling.
He was convicted and sentenced to i'm
prisonment, bat through powerful infiu-
encs and the use of money he avoided
this punishment, to the intense disgust of
the community at large. but especially
of the many people he had syindled or
"bled." He had been assaulted several
times. and so never appeared on the
streets alone. November 81. 1888. as he
was passing along the Rue Louis-le-
Grand, Guibert was shot in the arm,
but as no one had seen the the assailant
and as he made no complaint, the theory
that the pistol had been discharged by
jealous or cast-off woman was set
afoat and accepted. Eleven days later,
as Guibert and his brother-in-lsw,
Feruc, were passing No. 10 Rue Neuvs
st. Augustin. the former was shot dead.
A hackman, jumping from his coach,
collared a young man as the murderer,
but the man shook off his grasp with
laugh and the exclamation, "What do
you mean?" while several other men
hustled around them, saying, This is
a mistake, "That isn't the man." and
so on, till the confused coachman re-
leased his prisoner. who walked away
unconcernedly. The police made some
twenty arrests and put watch on every
one of Guibert's debtors, but the usurer's
murderer never was found. Just two
years before that, to day, a still more
mysterious crime had been committed
inside of the Bank Of France. As Al.
Bouron, sub-casfier, was passing along
a dusky corridor leading from the central
safe to his desk, having under his arm
package containing more than 5000, 600
in bank notes, one man throt'led him
while another seized the money. Bouron
q powerful man. shook them Off and
shouted ''Murderi" when the clerks and
wstchman ran to his aid. One of the
robbers lowered his head and made a
dash for the street; he buttered two or
three men over, but was finally over
powered. His accomplice leisurely ad-
justed his hat and cuffs and walked
calmly out of the place, no one know
ing as yet that two men had been con-
cerned in the attempt. The prisoner,
handsome and well-dressed man. was
taken to the Police Office, but as he was
asked his name drew pistol and blew
ont his brains Though one hundred
thousand persons inspected his eftgyat
the morgue, and the bank offered
great reward, no one ever identified the
dead man. nor was his companion ever
heard of,
