A large number of Chinese had to be
examined as witnesses in the case, and,
as it has often been remarked that the
Chinese care but little or not at all for
the American form of oath, the district
attorney moved that, under the provi-
sions of the civil code which provide
that a witness who does not believe in
the Christian religion may be sworn in
the manner which he considers most
binding on his conscience, the Chinese
witnesses being required, in addition to
taking the usual oath, to take the Wong
Chung, or ''yellow" oath. The motion
was granted, and alter the first Chinese
witness was called, and the usual oath
had been administered, the yellow oath
was produced. This is piece of paper
eleven inches long by eight wide, upon
which there are 1913 characters. Before
this was administered by the interpreter
literal translation was furnished and
read for the information OF the court and
jury A free translation of the same is
as follows:
This is to call the spirits. both good
and evil, to descend and watch over the
trial of Wong All Foo, who is charged
with numbering Loi All Cow. If swear
falsely and tell one untruth, or do not
make a statement according to the facts
in the case, l humbly beg the celestial
and terrestrial spirits TO redress the
wrong done to Loi All Cow, and to pun
ish me Immediately for having been a
false witness, to arrest my soul in its
fight. TO make me perish by the sword,
or cause me to die while on the sea and
before reach one half the distance to
China. This is the true and solemn
oath, uttered by my own lips, and signed
by me this - day Of the second month
in the eleventh year Quong Soy; and in
proof of the earnestness of my assertion,
may my soul be destroyed, as / destroy
this paper, by fire. {"
The witness repeated, after the inter-
prefer, every word printed on the paper
and then affixed the date and his sigma
ture to it, after which, with a match fur
nished by the obliging clerk of the court.
he lit the yellow oath and watched while
it turned to ashes
In answer to questions by the defense,
the witness said that he felt bound to
sell the truth under the Amercon oath.
and he believed that after taking the
Chinese oath he would be afraid to tell
an untruth. - San Francisco Call.

Danger In bottles.

Another risk to life is added by the

body knows the number of fatal s'acc:-
dents' due to taking the wrong medicine
or mixture at home from the innocent

The largely increasing use of bottled
waters and other beverages points another

carelessness that made it possible for a
young child in this city last week to drink
some deadly stuff out of bottle found In
dust heap.
A much stronger word than careless
ness. indeed, might be used to express
this lack of conscience in the small daily
affairs of life that furnishes daily kindred
instances of involuntary manslaughter. 7
There should be as much care employed
in destroying bottles that have had
poison in them as there is expected to be
in Keeping poison or gunpowder
or dynamite away from reckless
handling. 1t does not always serve
the same purpose to empty the bottles.
Corrosive sublimatc, carbolic acid, cop
peras, used in house clearing, are often
put in old beer or apolinaris bottles.

partook. Probably some careless pre-

of destroying it. Ale. beer, and bottled
