House Rules not to be suspended.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-Inquiry to night
developed the fact that it will be almost
impossible for the Republicans to succeed
in their plans tomorrow to pass bills
under suspension OF the rules.
Mr.. Randall said tonight that
the Democrats were opposed to any
such method of procedure. They did not
propose to allow any measure of such inn
portance as the appropriation bill to go
through without debating it. They viii,
however consent to the Republicans hav-
ing night sessions to dispose of the apprO-

Democrats and Nationals.

The Democratic State Convention met In
Lansing on the 9TH inst, the convention having
been called for the purpose OF nominating two
candidates for judges of the supreme court and
two regents for the university. After the ap-
pointment OF committees, the adoption Of a
platform and the transaction Of the usual con-
vention business, the convention proceeded TO
nominate its candidates. Several names were
proposed for judges Of the supreme court, and
the usual laudatory remarks followed, but
when the vote was taken John w. Champlin Of
Grand Rapids was declared unanimously
nominated.
Nominations for regent. were then in order
But one ballot was taken, which resulted in the
nomination Of Arthur NJ Clark Of Sanilac
After the usual thanks had been rendered to
everybody, the convention adjourned, the re-
mainder OF the ticket being provided for by the
following resolution, which was sent to tho
Greenback convention, then In session:
Resolved, That the chairman OF this con-
vention, with the state central committee, be
authorized to notify the National convention of
the action taken by this convention and In case
no union is effected they be authorized TO hll
the ticket in accordance with the call OF the
committee.
This proposition was accepted by the "Na-
tional' or Greenback convention, and as their
half OF the ticket nominated as judges OF the
supreme court for the short term, Thomas X.
Sherwood Of Kalamazoo, and G. j. Willets of
GratiOt for regent Of the university.

The Resources OF China.

Though China has sustained dense
population for centuries. the resources
of the country are said to be actually
undeveloped. Caucasian civilization
having crept into the Empire by de-
grees, of late years, the Chinese have
learned something of the industrial sys-
TENS of the outside world. and after
thorough investigation, they find that
there is good deal more wealth under
the ground than on top of it. Mr.. Sey-
writing 'InoWfrom Canton, says that
the mineral resources of China are be.
yond calculation. Coal, iron, copper,
tin, lead, silver and gold are abundant.
II is estimated that one productive or
available coal-feld of China. without a
flaw or flexure, accessible by means of
coal galleries, amounts to 30, 900 square
miles, and that the entire coal beds of
China exceed 100000 square miles, or
twenty times more than the aggregate
area of all the coal-felds in Europe, one
half of which is in Great Britain. Mr..
Seymour adds:
Alongside of these enormous coal beds
in China are iron ores in great abund-
ance. With these two powerful items
and the cheap labor of China, who can
estimate the possibilities of this country
if her people should happen to wake mp
to u realizing sense of their ability to
cope with othe' nations in the contest
for commercial supremacy on seas and
continents, or employ portion of her
population in naval fleets and standing
(or moving) armies?

Thumb Portraits.

World OF Wonders.
If the "ball." or cushion-like surface
of the top joint Of the thumb, be ex.
amined, it can be seen that in the centre
as, indeed. in the fingers also-is a
kind of spiral formed of fine grooves in
the skin. The spiral is, however, rare.
ly, however, quite perfect-there are ir-
Irregularities, or places where lines run
into each other here and there. Exam
lining both thumbs, il will be seen that
they do not exactly match; but the figure
on each thumb il the same through life.
If the thumbs of any two persons are
compared, it will further be found that
no two are alike. There may be, and
generally is, a family resemblance
between members of the same family,
as in other features; there are also ma
tional characteristics; out the individuals
differ. All this is better seen by taking
''proof impressions of the thumb
This is easily done by pressing il on a
slab covered with u film of printers
ink, and then pressing it on piece of
white paper; or little aniline dye, In
dian ink-almost anythihg-may be
used.
The Chinese take advantage of all
this TO identify their important crimi-
nails, ut least in some parts of the En-
pire. We photograph their faces; they
take impressions from their thumbs.
These are stored away, and if the delin-
quent should ever again fall into the
hands of the police, another impression
at once affords the means of compare
son. The Chinese say that, considering
the alteration made in the countenance
by hair and beard, and the power many
men have of distorting or altering the
actual features, ETC., their method af-
fords even more certain and easy means
of Identification than our plan of taking
the criminals portrait. Perhaps we
might with advantage take leaf out of
their book.
