A Chinese Slave.

Lee Mel Son and 500 Lin, China
man and his wife, living in Portland,
Oregon, have little Chinese girl whom
they hold as their slave. The little
child has made complaints recently of
hard usage which she received from her
tasklnaster. The authorities visited the
den and found her standing in cold wa
ter up to her ankles, trembling all over,
as. if in fit of ague. DIR. Watkinds
made an examination of the child. and
found that her hands were swollen to
immense proportions from the effects of
the chopsticks between which her fin
gers had been tightly fastened, and
kept so for hours at time for some
slight offense. ! Her legs from the
thighs to the feet, and her arms the
whole length, presented the appearance
of a boiled lobster. This discoloration
was caused by repeated applications of
red-hot poker. The medical examin-
er counted on the legs alone. fifteen
places where the torture had been ap-
piled. He is afraid the legs may have
to be amputated, as there is evidence Of
gangrene. Her unnatural owners were
arrested and required to give each
81, 900 bonds for their appearance to
answer whatever chargeof cruelty may
be brought against them, to be deter
mined by the issue Chicago Tines. 3

The Queens Household.

The Clerk of the Kitchen has a salary
of f7O0 a year and his board, and to aid
him in his work he has four clerks, who
keep all the accounts, check weights
and measures, and issue orders to the
tradespeople; he has also a messenger
and Unnecessary woman Beside
these officials of her Majesty's kitchen,
there is the chef, with a salary of f7O0 a
year, and four master cooks at about
1850 per annum each-who have the
privilege of taking four apprentices at
premiums of f150 to f200 each-two
yeomen of the kitchen, two assistant
cooks, two roasting cooks, four scourers,
three kitchen maids, a storekeeper, two
"Green Office" men, and two steam ap-
paratus men. And in the confectionery
department there are first and a Sec
ond yeoman. with salaries of f30O and
ESQ, respectively; an apprentice, three
female assistants, and an errand man !;
and, in addition to these, there are also
a pastry cook and two female assistants,
a baker and his assistant, and three
coffee-room women. The ever depart
ment, which has charge of all the linen,
consists of a yeomans and two female
assistants only. The gentleman of the
wine and beer cellars-or, properly
speaking, her Majesty's chief butler
has salary of $500 a year. He has to
select and purchase wines for the royal
establishment, to superintend the de-
canting and send them up to table.
Next to him are the principal table
deckers, with f20O year each; the
second table decker, with e150; the
third, with EGO, and an assistant, with
f52-their duties being to superintend
the laying out of the Queens table be-
fore dinner is served. The plate pantry
is under thescare of three women-with
salaries of EGO, f150, and f12O, re-
spectively, beside lodging money and
board-a groom, and six assistants.
These offices are of great trust and are
not overpaid, seeing that at a rough
guess the gold and silver plate at Wind
sorCastle alone is probably worth about
f3,OOO,0O0, and includes some very
precious specimens of art workman
ship. The getting in of her Majesty's
coal must be an important and arduous
task, as no fewer than thirteen persons
are employed all the year round on this
duty alone. Chambers Journal.

SelfshnesS.

A fundamental sin of the human race
is selfishness. It affects all classes and
conditions in all ages of the world. 1t
is generic. and not tribal, universal
rather than local. 1t looks up with en-
vious eve to those above it, and seeks to
pull them down that it may rise. 1t is
jealous of rivals and contemptuous to
interiors. 1t is cardinal defect in
Christian character, and spreads the
mildew of eternal death over the bright
est intellectual endowments 1t antag-
onizes the precepts and practice of the
Divine Master by corrupting the life
blood of all benevolence, 1t dries up
the fountains of love and mercy, and
converts the fruitful fields of kindness
into arid wastes of cruel neglect 1t
fosters pride and arrogance, and turns
humility and peace like beggars from
the human heart. 1t is always aspiring
for place and position, wealth and hon
or; and grieves when these are bestowed
upon unseeking worth. if
The law of life points downward, and
bends with plying look over those be-
low, and with helping hand seeks to lift
them up to. a higher level, Forgetful of
self, in blessing others, it becomes doub-
ly blessed; in relieving Others woes it
secures the inestimable boon of peace.
In looking down into human misery, it
beholds the gates of Paradise. Here is
the paradox of human wisdom. Self,
by climbing higher over others, sinks
lower and lower; humility, by going
down the sleeps Of wretchedness, rises
to all the heights of ineffable bliss.-M

Fill Your Sphere.

The late DR.. Bushnell wrote few bet
|. ter sermons than that in which he made
| his eloquent argument to show that
| every human life is after a plan OF God.
| And vet the instances are rare in which
men are fully satisfied with the sphere
in which Providence has placed them.
| In the great majority of cases there is a
restless anxiety for advancement, ambi-
| tious warming for positions demanding
more conspicuous and dignified service.
Yielding to this temptation, many
grow weary of life's humber duties,
and become neglectful of their callings.
To check and correct this tendency
nothing is more important than an in
telligent recognition of the fact that
God requires us to be faithful In the
sphere in which He has placed us. The
sphere may be obscure. but, If its duties
are properly discharged, God will not be
unfaithful to forget our s. works of faith
and labors of love" He will approve
and reward them up to the full measure
of our fidelity. Carefulness and cheer
fulness in the performance Of our every
day duties is the truest test of Christian
character, and the honest purpose which
keeps a man faithful in little matters
seldom fails to prove itself strong
enough to make him vigilant in the dis
charge of higher responsibilities.
The lesson that needs to be constantly
impressed on man is that loyalty to duty
and to Christ does not depend on con-
spicuous achievements. While often
exhibited in connection with great
deeds, it is much % fte1aer associated with
the doing of humble offices. Our life
may be unostentatious, may seem mo-
notonous. But persevere as a Christian
in the family, be faithful as a servant of
God in your place of business, true and
conscientious in, your duties asa neigh
Dor and citizen and a member OF
Christ's church, and you shall in no wise
lose your reward. te.-.s st,s, 3.
Place opposition does not determine
our real standing either with God or
men. This depends on faithfulness to
duty. Paul in chains was greater than
Felix in office; because the Apostle was
true, while the Governor was false. And
to show us how our Lord judged in this
matter, He dignifed lowly positions and
humble offices by making Himself, on
more than one occasion, servant of
His disciples. Recognizing Him as our
great example, it does not become us to
be troubled about the sphere in which
God has placed us, but rather endeavor
to make the most of our talents and OPP
portunities,, illustrating our fidelity in
every duty and in every department of
religious effort. Such a view will not
repress our aspirations, but will inspire
and direct them into legitimate chan
nels, teaching us that through fidelity
in humble duties, whatever they may
be, we are. to qualify ourselves for
wider service and win our way to high
er honors. Baptist Weekly.

"HE LEADETH ME-"
PSALM 2S

PSALM %
In pastures green? Not always; sometime
He
Who knoweth best in kindness Ieadeth me s.s.s
In weary ways, where heavy shadows be.
Out of the sunshine, warm and soft and
bright,
Out of the sunshine into darkest night
/ oft would faint with sorrow and alright
Only for this: I know He holds my hand;
30, whether led in green or desert land,
l trust, although may not understand.
Beside 'still waters?' No, not always so;
Outlines the heavy tempests round me blow,
And DER my soul the waves and pillows go;
But when the storm beats loudest, ana cry
Aloud for help, the Master standeth by,
And whispers to my soul: Lo, it is IP'
Above the tempest wild l hear Him say:
:" Beyond the darkness lies the perfect day;
In every path of thine lead the way
So whether on the hill-tops high and fair
/ dwell, or i'll the sunless valleys, where
The shadows lie; what matter? He is there
And more than this; where'er the pathway
lead
He gives to me no helpless broken reed,
But His own hand, sufficient for my need.
So where He leads me- can safely go;
And in the blest hereafter shall know
Why in His wisdom He hath led me so.

South Carolina Democrats.

The State Democratic Executive Com
mittee has issued an address to the
Democratic party of South Carolina.
The address declares that ''Despite the
peace and quiet which have prevailed,
despite the existence of State Govern
ment ready to punish disorder, repress
crime, and protect its citizens, Federal
officers have seen fit to drag our people
from their homes, and arraign them not
only before Federal Courts, but before
the bar of public opinion. The recent
letter of Acknowledgement Brewster to
Sanders is an Indictment of the Demo-
cratic party of South Carolina. To this
the Democratic party must answer. Its
chosen representatives, through whose
persons it is sought to perpetrate this
outrage, must be defended with all the
force and energy of the Democratic
party. The purpose in view is too plain
to be misunderstood. When the hand
of the assassin struck down the Presi-
dent of the United States it dealt blow
under which the people of the South are
still staggering. The change of policy
toward the South, as Enthusiastically in
Dictated within the last few weeks,
should warn all lovers of good govern
ment to be vigilant and active. The de-
cree has gone forth. The white peo-
pie. of South Carolina must avow the
principles of the Republican party or be
declared criminals. The object of those
in authority is not to punish for alleged
crimes in the past. but to make adher-
ence to the principles of the Democratic
party impossible in the future. The
time for this action has been fifty
chosen. On the eve Of the State cleo
ton our people are told that they must
submit to radical rule or bear the per-
secution of officials aided by all the pow
er of the General Government. The
time has come for an indignant people
Ito rise in their might and protest
against this unwarrantable invasion of
rights. If we fail in our duty, our civ,
ilization will be lost. The foe and the
stranger viii again rule South Carolina.
The oppression and tyranny Which
marked the history of Republican rule
in this State will again disgrace our civ
| iHzation, and bring disaster upon our
people. In this situation of affairs no
true son of the State can doubt as to his
duty. Let us stand together as one
man, and, while confronting the com
mon enemy. preserve for ourselves and
posterity the Justice. peace and security
| which, under Democratic rrhe, all class
es of our citizens have enjoyed since the
grand revolution of I776. They. whose
only offense is fidelity to the welfare OF
| the State, must not be permitted to suf-
I fer as criminals"
