 An important rule, though seldom regard ed, is never to cram the vases with flowers; many will last if only they have a large mass of water in the vase, ,and not too many stalks to feed on the water and pollute it. Vases that can hold large quantity of water are much to be preferred to the spindle-shsped trumpets that are often used. Flat dishes filed with wet sand are also useful for short stalked or heavy-headed flowers; even par tia11y withered blooms will revive when placed on this cool moist substance. Moss, though far prettier than sand is to be avoid ed, as 1t soon smells disagreeably, and always ihterfsres with the scent of the flowers placed in it for preservation. In the case of flowers that grow only ih q cool temperature, and suffer when they get into warm and dry Air, All that ws 6at do is to lesssii evaporation IS much IS possible, and when such flowers have heavy stems and leaves, te sabmsfgs them fer minute, se that by capillary at= traction they may continue t6 kesp thshi= selves moist and eeetj but this is dangerous to table=gleths or polished surfaces, unless ears be taken that the points Of ths leaves do not hang down to prevent dripping, An other means of preventing delicate and sweet scented flowers from Tagging is to cut them with several leaves on the stem, and, when the flower head is placed in water, to allow only this head to remain above water, while the leaves are entirely submerged; by this means the leaves seem to help to support the flower, which will then last for three days in fairly cool room. Frequent cutting of the stem is of great use; but with all flowers by far the best plan is to put them outside, ex- posed to dew or rain, during the night, when they will regain strength enough to last on for days. All New Holland plants, particu- larly Towering acacias, are benefited wonder fully by this apparent cruelty, and will ev en stand slight frost far better than a hot room at night indoors

The tFhiker" is an aquatic raeehorse, not more than fifteen feet long, without a deck, with mast way up in the bow, and with 8 single sail big enough for a good-sized yacht. The s'hiker' does not carry any ballast ex- cept that which can move about on two legs. In other words, her crew of four or five men are her ballast. In order to utilize their weight so as to prevent capsizing, the unknown genius who invented the ''hiker' the center-board, the mast and the lower yard of the sail are five or six ropes, which are long enough to hang over one side into the water. On the ends which go over the side are fastened bars of wood, and on these bars of wood hang the human ballast.
 An admirable illustration of the working of this simple but rather moist device is af- forded during every regetta of the South wark Yacht club. The Southwark is com posed entirely of t'hikers," either with 8 gun is fired, from thirty to fifty racers dip across the line as their crews frantically haul up the sails They continue hauling until such spread of canvas is displayed that any spectator who was not acquainted with the use of the apparently useless ropes and wooden bars, which seem to be only in the way of the men, would say at once that the unballasted little boats would go over before the first quarter was finished.
 On they glide down the river, gathering increased momentum with each moment. Still their progress is comparatively slow, there being but breath of air. The crews all sit staring at the sails and at the river be. hind. Suddenly the rufling of the water tells the coming of puff of wind. The

THE YELLOW MEN.

The Chinese question is becoming promi- nent again. The report of the commission which has been examining Chinatown" in San Francisco, has been distributed all over the country and has attracted much atten- ton. This report is 8 shocking revelation of the uncleanness of the Chinese who are packed together in Chinatown. The facts contained in it are such as to startls those easy-going persons who have decided that because this is the land of the free and the home of the brave no fault should be found with any people who choose to come to it.
 But the personal peculiarities and vices of the Chinese are not the only reason why the people of California do not want to live with them There is another reason, which affects the whole country, as well as Califor- nia The Chinese in San Francisco have managed so that they control nearly three fourths of the export trade with China. During the last quarter the Chinese and white agents of Chinese firms or individuals exported merchandise to the amount of $565,- 273. 55, while the total of exports by whites was $237 ,915.69. In the same time Chinese business houses sent out of the country treasure amounting to $913, ,5U.55, and various banking installations sent an additional amount of over $2,000,= GOO. According to the annual report of the Ssn Francisco Chamber of Commerce for 1885, the tetal merchandise imports te thst port from Ghina for ths years iss9, 1883 and 1884 amounted te s94, ,9se, ,e5e, while ths te- tai exports fer the same period reached s1t,+ es6, ,955, the trade balance against this eeHH- try being SIS, t59,66i, The export of trsas= ure was Ss7, 1908, ATS, as against s265, ,ss4 iaa= ported Dedueting ths latter sum from the treasure exported leaves balance of $s7 ,09s,= 154 of exported treasure to make good the trade balance of SIS, 159, ,601. In other words, ss the San Francisco Bulletin puts it, 'ffrom this port in the three years, approximately, $14, ,000, ,000 in treasure went to China, in ad- dition to what was needed to make the trade balance good. This large sum may be as- stunned to have been squeezed ont of this country by the Chinese in addition to the large aggregate of sums of varying size car ried home by Chinese returning to China, temporarily or permanently, on their per sons."
 These facts indicate what difficult prob- lem the Chinese question is and will be. It will take some wise statesmanship to deal properly with it.

FIRE HORSE AND WHIP.
How Jim, Who Was Slow to Learn
 Got The Best of His Trainers.

How Jim, Who Was Slow to Learn, Got The Best of His Trainers. [From the New York Times The fremen who train the horses for the
 department have abundant opportunities for
 8 confirmation of the theory that horses req
 son from cause to effect. Of one horse in
 particular which is now in active service,
 many anecdotes are current, as showing his
 great intelligence and ability to master ques-
 tions for himself. The following story was
 told by one of the assistant engineers at the
 fire on Broadway on Saturday night:
 ''Jim," he said, pointing to 8 powerful
 black horse who was paving and snorting in
 time with the puffs from the engine, twas
 difficult horse to train. He was slow at
 learning to leave the stall and make ssh
 for the pole as soon the gong sounded
 We tried him in various ways, and finally
 made him one of the quickest horses in the
 service by simply feeding him an apple as
 soon as he had taken his place at the pole.
 This plan worked admirably, but the depart
 ment didn't supply unlimited apples, SO
 when we thought him fully trained the GUS tomary apple was omitted. What did Jim
 do then but quietly remain in his stall when
 the alarm rang out. The apple business was
 resorted to again, and he was as spry as be-
 
 with and Jim did not budge, but looked at the men calmly, and if a horse can wink think anyone could see the merry twink le in his eyes and imagine him saying, No ap- pie, no move.'
 "He was too strong and too valuable to lose, so the foreman rigged up an automatic whip, which was released at the first tap of the gong, and came down with sharp thwack across Jim's quarters. For two or three days this answered every expectation but it was then noticed that when Jim backed | into the stall he furtively looked behind him, and after cogitation with himself he squeezed his body close up to the side of the l stall so that the lash came harmlessly down | by his side. This was not only once, but everytime he was put in his stall and it was l clear he had beaten the men. Well, then ] another plan was adopted The whip or lash ! was strung along the side of the stall, and | when the gong sounded out it sprang, hitting | Jim smart clip on the side. This brought l him out on run for two or three days, when | again he got the best of us. When he was backed in he would just plant his body firm | ly against the side of the stall and the gong | might sound for week and the lash never touch him, as he held it tight against the 1 boards. We then tried a third and last plan | of having half dozen lashes working from ! the gong, so that however he may place him l self some of them are bound to hit him. This has succeeded so far, but Jim has evi- dently been thinking out plan to get the \ best of this, and I am not sure he will not l succeed"
 During the narrative Jim stood quietly as \ if listening, and when the engineer, walking I by him, gave him friendly pat, he neighed | out a whinny of satisfaction, acting as if he | had understood every word.

toward the powder keg, Mir. Schultz would have cool-headed man wheel the powder into line with the approaching storm, then retire about one hundred yards to the north west, wait until the devouring air monster was just over the keg and then fire the pow der. His idea is that, as it is a well-known characteristic of tornadoes to take long leaps through the air, sometimes skipping wide reaches of country, charge of gunpowder properly applied would give tornado lift that would save village.
 Ever since 1860 the State of New Hamp- shire has been encouraging manufacture by exempting it from taxation for a term of ten years. Cotton and woolen factories were first favored, and in 1871 the exemption was ex- tended to manufactures producing goods of any material. The effect has been very no- ticeable in many places. Conway, Derry, Hilton, Laeonia, Pittsfeld, Rochester, Berlin and many other places have greatly increased their population and resources and become important manufacturing centers. The ten years exemption has now nearly expired with the majority of the corporations and a powerful effort is being made in the legis' ture to get ten years extension. There is a- strong opposition, however .l----------e1 feel ing being that such exempt ab- stract theory wrong and not made, practically, except for results of unquestioned general good, and that industries which have been exempted from public burdens for ten years ought now to bear their share. This seems reasonable.
 Bishop Whipple, of Minnesota, has issued 8 strong appeal in behalf of the Chippewa Indians of that State. It seems that Con- gress has authorized the building of mum Der of dams on the upper Mississippi river. These dams will overflow more than fifty square miles in the Leech river reservation. This overflow will destroy the rice fields of the Indions, from which they gather over 2,000 bushels of rice annually. It will also destroy large part of their sugar orchards and will cut off their main supply of fish. TFor four years," says Bishop Whipple, "these Indians have sent appeal after appeal for redress. The Department of the Interior asked their agent to report the facts and his statements were received with ineredulity. Captain Blakely and the Rev. J. A. Gilfllan were appointed commission to assess the damages and their report shared the same fate. The government has offered the h. dians less compensation than the value of the millions of feet of their pine used in the con- struction of the dams."

crew of each 'fhiker" scramble over to the windward side and perch themselves on the gunwales with the bars of wood in their hands. Perhaps the wind blows steadily perhaps it strikes them in gush. If the former, then the men sit where they are, balancing the craft simply by their all being on one side. But if, especially while tack ing, the "hiker's" spread of canvas above proves too much for her and she plunges over, the captain yells hantically hike over"
 In an instant the ropes are stretched taut and the wooden bars disappear overheard into the water, followed by the men or the posterior part of them Only their legs re- main in the boat as they sit on the trans verse bars and hold on to the ropes. Every other wave surges up to their necks, and often 8 dip to windward submerges them completely, with the exception of their legs, which flourish wildly up over the side of craft has been saved from capsizing by this sudden hanging out of from 800 to l 1000 pounds on the windy ard side. Sometimes an entire tack across the river is made with the crew 'hiking out" in this manner.
 Sometimes, as they come about, in spite of their efforts, the wind proves too strong for them and the side they are sitting over is raised high up into the air: Then for few brief seconds every nerve is strained as they pull on the ropes and hang, almost head
 S : wnYard, over the side. They may suc- teeds and keep the boat from capsizing, or they may all execute grand flying leap as the "hiker" goes over and they are thrown forward into the sail. This, however, hap pens only when there is an unusually strong wind or when bad management is shown in "coming about" at the wrong time. And, even if they do capsize, there is no harm done. Of course, they are out of the race, but that is all. The tugs and steamers that follow pick them up and tow the half sub- merged boat home again, where she is right ed and bailed out
 On many of the races at least ten men are taken in each boat. They serve to keep her steady as long as the breeze is to stiff or the cruse is against the wind. But if, after the buoy is rounded and the wind dies away, the captain glances significantly at one of the crew, the yachtsman grins, pulls off his boots, and drops overheard. Perhaps he is picked up, perhaps he is not noticed in the excitement of the race, and is left to take care of himself. In this case he calmly strikes out for the shore, half mile away Sometimes half-a-dozen men are dropped over in this manner from one boat, in order to Tighten her and keep her rivals from crawling ahead. But woe to the captain who sacrifices too many of his men. There may come up an unforeseen wind and bowl over the too-lightly ballasted boat in the twinkling of an eye.
