CHINESE EDITORS.


The Sang Eroid With which They Adapt
Themselves 70 Circumstances.
The life of q Chinese journalist is .
happy one. He is free from care and
thought, and allows all the work of the
establishment to be done by the press
man. The Chinese compositor has not
yet arrived. The Chinese editor, like
the rest of his countrymen, is imita-
tive. He does not depend upon his
brain for editorials, but translates them
from all the contemporaneous Ameri-
can papers he can get. There is no
humorous department in the Chinese
newspaper. The newspaper Office has
no exchanges scattered over the floor,
and in nearly all other things it differs
from the American establishment. The
editorial room is connected by ladder
with hunks in a loft above, where the
managing editor sleeps, and next to it
is, invariably, q room fitted with an
opium bunk and a layout. Evidences
of domestic life are about the place
pots, kettles and dishes taking up
about as much room as the press. II
an editor finds that journalism does
not pay, he gets q job at washing
dishes or chopping wood, and he does
not think he has descended far, either.

The Value Of the Percheron Stud
Book Of France.

It contains the pedigrees and brief
descriptions Of about five thousand of
the best bred Percherons, and none
but the produce Of recorded sire and
dam are now eligible to entry. Every
one is familiar with the old breeding
axiom. Like begets like or the likeness
of some of its ancestors" From this
alone the most obtuse mind will readily
perceive that . knowledge of those
ancestors is as necessary to the sue
cessful breeder as the perfection of the
animal himself. Stud books are histo-
ries of the individuals of q breed, and
are, therefore, the only means by which
the value of any animal for breeding
purposes can be measured; while the
worth of animals of unknown ancestry,
however fine they may be, individually.
can only be ascertained by experiment.
This is the reason why animals of es-
tabliched pedigrees, tracing through a
line of excellent ancestry, always COM
mand higher prices. In this advanced
age of scientific breeding any person
attempting to disparage the value Of
pedigrees, or opposing improvement
through the means of stud books, must
be actuated by selfish motives and
should be regarded with suspicion.
There are many horses being imported
from France. Of whose origin nothing
Is known.
