A recent issue of the Boston Journal
reported the death by suicide of three
| merchants in different parts OF the
country owing to failure in specula-
ton. Within three months the same
number of suicides have taken place in
! France from similar causes. What q
| text for those to consider who are inn
patient to accumulate great wealth.
The needle-in-the-h aystack story is
in peril. In August of last year
Halifax lady who was visiting in the
| country lost one of her bracelets in
hay-mow, and after brief search gave
up all hopes of finding it. She was
agreeably surprised few days ago by
receiving from her friends the missing
ornament, which had been found in the
manger.
The Florida board of health have
promulgated regulations concerning
the yellow fever. They authorize the
destruction of infected property, en-
force the house to house inspection in
cities and towns once a month. compel
the adoption of a sewerage system in
all municipalities of 10000 or more
inhabitants, and provide for special
monthly reports during the warm sea-
son.
At Summerside, p. E. l., the other
day, a man came to town and bought
complete funeral outtit-coffin, plate,
gloves, etc. When the clerk was en-
craving the plate he asked what date
should be put upon it. ''Oh, he is not
dead yet," was the reply. The death
of the person for whom the outfit was
intended was daily expected. and the
idea was to have everything in rcadi-
ness when required.
A great railroad projected by the
Russian government will extend from
Tiumen, in western Siberia, to Vladiv-
ostock, a Russian port on the Pacific
coast. a distance of 1000 miles. The
cost is estimated to be between SIC, 600
and $4,000 per mile. The greater
part of the proposed route presents
few engineering difficulties. The road
will open up a vast region now almost
destitute of commerce.
Chinese Wine-MakInR.
Wine-making is said to have existed
for thousands of years before the in
PRODUCTION of distilling. The process
is simple. Glutinous rice. or hsOGng-
mi, is placed over a fire in a large iron
pan and softened with warm water.
It is made into a thick, solid sort of q
Cruel. This stepped rice is placed on
/ a table with raised edges to prevent
, the fluid from overlooking. Over the
/ rice, when in this state, the leaven to
aid fermentation is sprinkled. The
whole is then mixed and mashed with
, an iron masher, and remains in large
stoneware jar for several days. II the
wine is desired to be of a sweet taste.
two days are enough; but for wine
without sweet taste four or five days
) are required. To make the second
: kind of wine stronger. the Chinese
| brewer often adds spirit. After all
! this the wine, solid and liquid parts
together, is placed in cloth bag. and
| this goes into pressing chest of wood,
called cha, the WINE press. A neaVy
stone presses it down and the wine
: flows out from a sort of teapot spout
in the side of the press. The remain
t der of solid matter is called tsG1, and
l is used to feed animals as 8 fermenL
The method of distilling was intro.
3 duced in the Yuen dynasty. To the
wooden cylinder which holds the
: millet there are three covers. The
= outer and upper one contains cold
; water and keeps the second one cool
, to cOndense the spirit. The spirit
5 rises from the softened red millet be-
] low, which has been under manipula-
, ton for several days, and passes
! through the first cover to the second.
, It here becomes condensed and flows
9 down the sides into atriangular trough
which receives it and delivers it from
: 3 spout. Williams and Morrison'e
Dictionary and Legge's Classics seem
to have been compiled with the i'm
{ preston that the Chinese practi ed
distillation in ancient times. This Il
an error. The Chinese only knew the
ordinary process of fermentation.-
