Saturday night, which will be long
remembered Major Dane took the
audience through the grand cathe-

trip led them beside q f.ightful

A CHINESE OATH.

The Chinese have no regard what
ever for q Caucasian oath. Indee,
they hold it in as much Contempt a

rival companies the facts com.

parties interested will swear them
out to dead certainty. The Chi.
! nese have three forms of oaths. In
one they smash plate. in another
cut off fowls head. and in the last
hold their hands to heaven and in
woke the stars. In the crockery
smashing ritual they hope that
their souls will be broken like the
scattered plate in the chicken
carving ceremonial they expect the
devil to cut their heads of if they
lie. The invocation Of the stars,
however, is the most solemn of ell.
They hold up their hands toward
the constellation which is COM
monty known as the big dipper
and gazing at it through their dis
tended fingers hope fash of fire
from each star will strike them
dead if they do not tell the truth.
They believe that the man who lies
under these circumstances will be
Immediately stricken down to be
carried in turn 10 seven separate
helis, one in each star. The first
melts iron, the second stone, and
so on until the last is so hot that
q diamond coming within 8 million
miles Of it disappears IS q vapor in
the air. In the last hell the body
of the perjurer flies away in
vapor and the vapor, which is the
soul, wanders about vsinly looking
for its body. Other souls avoid it,
doubtless by the scents of
roasted flesh, and when it at last
finds q body to live in winged
devil affords it rapid transportation
to the old hell to be burned again.
