The Chinese six Companies,

"The Chinese empire" said my in
formant, sis divided into numerous
provinces, owe which the central gov
srnment at Pekin exercises but little
direct authority outside of the collection
Of the revenues. These subdivisions Of
the empire are under the despotic con-
troll of magistrates, or mandarins. The
people of the different provinces speak
peculiar dialects and are exceedingly
clannish. Upon the opening of emigra-
ton TO this country the representatives OF
different sections of the Chinese empire
formed six companies, known as the
Keong Chow, Sam Yup, KeonS Wo,
Ming Yeong, Hop Wo and Yen Wo.
''These six companies were first organ
lied for benevolent purposes, and did
worthy work in the early days Of Chinese
immigration by providing their people
with the necessities of life until employ
ment could be obtained for them. During
latter days, however, they have almost
ceased their benevolent work, and their
function now is the adjudication Of the
personal differences Of the members Of
the companies, They act in place of the
courts of the state. When a Chinaman
has a grievance he reports it to his COM
pany, who in turn reports tie case to the
officials Of the six companies. \ COM
mittee of residents of Chinatown is
selected, to whom the matter is left for
arbitration. Chicago Herald.

Children of the Seapolitan Poor

The Naples children are OF a kind diff.
cult to classify. Born in extreme pow.
srty, clad in rags, fed upon crusts,
strings of maccaroni and sour wine,
sleeping on the floor or on payements,
very strange ideas must enter their in
FAINT brains. They are not pretty, for
personal beauty among the lower classes
is rare everywhere in Italy, but they are
q ways in good spirits. Not much is
seen of them in the daytime. AT night
they swarm out of all the recesseS in
which they have been hidden, rumping
about the walks, full of mischief, much
in the way and hard to get rid of. Some
times they go to bed IN church steps, or
f]requented pavements at an early hour
with the older members of the family,
and sometimes they can be seen playing
games in the street at 2 o'clock in tie
morning as naturally as if it were mid.
day.
They seem to take absolutely no note
of time. They may have slept and
walked again to renew their sports, which
is probably the case. Children playing
in groups ia the streets at l or ? o'clock
in the morning would lie a surprising
sight in America, or even in any other
country in Europe. But at Naples no
one seems to remark it. Life here is SO
strange, so unlicensed, SO at variance
with all that we in the north are &C.
sustomed to consider as proger or decor.

SUGAR AMONG THE sNcIENVS.
Once Known rs n Remedial AEent-IS-
PRODUCTION into Europe-BeetS

II seems almost impossible TO imagine
life without sugar, so absolutely essen
tial is its use TO the comfort of living.
There is no mention of sugar among the
early Greeks and Romans. although
sugar or sweet" cane wa made known
by the conquests Of Alexander the Great,
whose admiral. Nesrchus, found il in the
East Indies. IL is mentioned as a
remedial agent a few years before the
birth OF Christ-"s honey called Sac
charon, having the appearance of salt"
II is known, also, that Galen often pre-
cribed it as a medicine. The juice OF
the sugar cane was used by some Of the
oriental nations as an intoxicating
drink. Tie Arabians used sugar in
large quantities, and it is related that
at the marriage Of Caliph Maskadi Ben
rittale $1,000 pounds of the sugat were
required TO prepare the comtitures and
ornamental sweets for the wedding BAN

end Of the seventeenth century, sugar
was so costly that only the wealthiest
families could afford TO use II. In l7+5
Marggraf. a celebrated chemist, read a
paper before the Berlin Academy Of
Sciences concerning the juices Of certain
native plants, especially Of the beet, in
which was a substance identical with
cane sugar. He showed by samples
his own preparation that the manufac-
ture OF sugar from The beet WA not only
possible but profitable. The chemists
colleagues, however, laughed the project
10 scorn, saying that sugar was never
produced from beets, and IL came 10
naught. When Marggraf died In 1888 it
seemed as II his discovery would die
with him.
Achard, his pupil, at the close Of the
sentury, being director OF the academy,
found the treatise Of his master and de-
termined TO establish manufactory IN
silesia for the production Of be~et-root
sugar. In spite Of the energy Of the
chemist and the assistance Of the crown,
the project was not successful, although
The sugar was perfectly. satisfactory. II
was not until lSil, nearly 100 years after
Marggrafs first essay, that the produc-
ton OF beet sugar was an accomplished
tact. At the present time beet sugar Is
