the TRUST.
The investigation into the sugar trust was
continued BY the house committee this morn
ing. H. 4. H%svenmeyer, Of New York, was
on the stand. Nothing decidedly new was
developed In regard to the trust, but the in
vestigation assumed somewhat the nature OF
q tariff hearing when the witness stated that
the sugar industry could not exist without
protection because OF the higher prices paid
American labor. The sugar rciners were
Disseminated against under the present tariff,
the I'D velorum duty being greater or raw
than on refined sugar. The Mills bill made
things even worse. The witness said he was
Disseminated against In the matter Of draw
back when the treasury department on No
vember I, 1885, hxed the rate at 32.60. The
drawbaSt ON sugar should be fixed by ron.
gress and not by . secretary Of the treasury,

Festival Of the Devil.

The Devil Festival is said to have
originated in legend of the mother
of fabulous person, Mullen; she was
about the wickedest then in existence,
there being no crime which she left
uncommitted. After her death she APP
peared one night to her son Mullen
with heavy wooden collar round about
her neck, and she narrowed his soul
with the tale of her sutferings in the
lower regions. She said she was en-
during the penalty for her unnumbered
sins during her early life, and pleaded
with her son to deliver her out of the
hands of Pluto. This to him seemed
an impossible task, as no human being
can enter the dark regions and return
alive. She told him he must become a
Buddhist priest, and that there was q
door in certain Buddhist temple
which he could open, and SO let out
the prisoners from the shades below.
The son, being filial, obeyed the behest
of his mother and sought out a we'll
known Buddhist priest in q certain
famous temple and asked to be admit
ted as a novice. AS his life was pure,
the priest willingly admitted him.
After having been there several months
and learned all the Buddhist prayers
he sought out the door that led to the
Lower Shades, whittier the wicked
ones had gone, and, remembering his
mothers instruction, he knocked open
the door. The Judge Pluto being al
ways willing to release his victims up
on the intercession of saints, he has
set all his prisoners free for a certain
length of time every year, beginning
on the 10Th of the seventh moon, ever
since the time when ST. Mullen open
ed that door. 1t has become custo-
mary for the people throughout the
country, in the seventh moon of every
year, to worship their ancestors, whose
spirits are then at large. The annual
Devil Festival held by the Cantonese
and Fuhkienese began to-day by theat-
ricals, etc, at their cemetery below
Hsing Hua Chun. 1t will last three
days and three nights. The people
from Canton and Fuhkien provin ces
are not few, and those whose remains
are buried here are numerous. The
amount of paper clothes, money, ETC.,
burned to the departed is consequent
ly very great. The spectators of theat
rical plays rush in from every part o.
the city. The streets are enlivened by

The Xane OF Intellect.

The mind, on which man so prides
himself, develops and expands until the
age of about forty, and then declines.
Decay is the memorable law of Mature.
Sad is the fading away of brilliant

but sadder than death is it when the
brain perishes before the body. How
often, alas, we see, says Holmes, "the

the arrangement of the marbles to be
shot at can be varied in many ways,
but the young Arabs shoot the marble
in a way of their OWE and much more

The left hand is laid fat OF the ground

the marble is placed in the groove be-

The forefinger of the right hand is then
