CHINESE ELECTION.
How Mott street, Now York, Chooses n
Municipal Chairman.

Municipal Chairman.
"Kien Coon 500 Clan Sung La" or
in English, Behold the election of the
Municipal Chairman, was printed on
big, red circulars about n foot long,
which were distributed all over China
town in the stores, shops, restaurants
and gambling dens, by the Chinatown
crier and assistant. The circular an
nounced a meeting OF the Mongolian
colonists, held for the annual election
OF their head man. Contrary to the
old rule of popular vote for the best
and most popular man among them, the
Chinese political combine" have sud-
denly adopted the regular Mclean man
system by nominating their own candi-
dates and adoptinga platform. The
platform permits hitting of the pipe
and lots of fan-fan. The candidates
were comparatively unknown to the
Chinese community until their names
were announced in the circulars. They
are Moy Deahk and 'Moy Yong. Both
tried hard to attain to the use of the
famous vermilion pencil OF the Emper-
ors in China, but failed. They sought
the shores OF this glorious Republic
some years ago for consolation, and
one OF them will probably get it. From
these two names the Cinnamon are eX-
pected to select their fayorite by ballot
ing before Joss.
The indications are that Moy Deahk
will get to be China mayor of New
York. The salary OF the Office is only
1865 per annum, but the perquisites
are worth at least three times that
amount. The "Zoon Fa Coon Soon
Clan Sung" the Chairman OF the Chi
nese Municipal Council, besides acting
us Il Mandarin TO the New York colo
nists, constitutes sort OF Board of
Arbitration, For every settlement of
u case he gets IA nominal commission
from the successful litigants OCCASION
ally half Il dozen cases are thus dis
posed of in single week, and the war
ring Chinese laundrymen and shop
keepers thus manage to keep out of
the city courts. He is virtually tho
acting priest OF Joss. The devotees
coming into the temple to pray for
wealth must pay small fee-all the
way from quarter 10 dollar. These
fees, after paying for Joss sticks and
candles for the shrine, go to the Zoon
Fa Coon 500 Clan Sung. There are
other ways, too, of making the office
remunerativo rs well as honorary. -

ARour VEAL EARNING.
Tho Gront Advantage 10 Possesses in
Point OF Manual Labor.


Point OF Manual Labor.
From observation am decidedly Of
opinion that moro money can be made
and more easily by devoting COW to
fattening calves than by milking and
making butter or cheese. | know n
case where n person realized eighty
dollars In season from one COW.
Whether COW shall be compelled to
suclSlc two calves at time or only
one depends altogether upon whether
she has milk sufficient for two. II she
has IL, IL is certainly advisable. In re-
gard to the question whether the milk
should first be drawn and then fed to
the calf or the calf be allowed TO draw
IL, the latter course seems the better.
because It is natures way, but the sub
ject Is of such II nature that II Is not
susceptible of proof. The objection to
the practice urged by some, that 1t
makes the cow $ teats sore after awhile.
amounts to not much, for an ointment
made OF the bark OF the root Of bitter
sweet simmered in fresh lard will pre-
vent or remedy this il rubbed on oc-
casionally.
Another objection, that it is difficult
to make COW mother any calf but her
own, also falls to tho ground. Two or
three days before her calf is to be taken
away fasten blanket around it. After
the calf is gone and her uddcr fills
again and she becomes uneasy, put the
blanket on the new calf and trot it in
to her. She will sniff awhile. and final
ly conclude that it is her own calf, and
will gently settle down TO business.
The objection urged that time would
have to be spent in hunting up new
calves also fails, for the veal farmer
can do as n lady friend does: let the
local butcher who takes the fat cat
away bring new one in its pla,e.
Country butchers always know where
to get young calf for nominal sum.
1 have observed that veal farming does
not injure the COW for the next years
milking. This system exha1sts the
soil less, because the most valuable
part of the milk is retained in the
manure of the calf, while IN the other
case it goes off with the milk. In point
of manual labor veal farming possesses
n great advantage. .-Calen Wilson, in

The Lost Atlantis.

For many centuries there has been ira
dition Of a long lost island called Atlantis.
The Greek geographers located it in the
Atlantic Ocean, west of the northwest part
of Africa and the Pillars of Hercules. The
sea. a.kings of Atlantis are said to have iu-
vaded Europe and Africa, and to have been
defeated by the Athenians.
All the legends agree that it was vast
island, of ineXhaustble resources, and in
habited by n race of superior people. For
ages this island has existed only in legend
ary lore. But now, when thelight of mod
ern research is turned full upon the investi-
CATION, behold the lost Atlantis at our very
doors.
SO the bgoted medical fraternity goes
cropping about in the dark, seeking for an
Atlantis or Esculapius, when if they would
investigate, they would behold the lost At
lantis at their very door. With their an
cient text book, a case of physic, paper in
their waistcoat giving them license to prac-
tice, experiment and dose with their iniuri-
Gus drugs, cauterze and perform unneces-
sary acts, with no person or laws to hold
them accountable, they continue their big
oted, unjustiied practice, staring into va
cancy, and imagining that they see in them
selves an Esculapius.
Wrapped in ancient bigotry, they are cry
Seen made in medical science. They de-
nounce any new idea advanced by layman
or an opposition school as fraud.
Whyl
Because humanity will not be benefitedl
Not at all, but because their specialism did
not make the discovery.
Yet they concede that there is no remedy
known to their materia medca that will
cure an advanced kidney malady and the
diseases arising observation-disclosures many
of them know from GROWING proof that
Warmers Safe Cure will-but unscrupu>
lously treat symptoms and call them dis
ease, when in reality they know they are
but symptoms.
A few of the more honest physicians ad-
init that Warmers Safe Cure is valuable
but say, in so many words, when asked why
they do not prescribe it, that they can not,
according to their code.
Nevertheless, the world is fast becoming
satisfied that the cure for kidney and liver
diseases, in whatever form or condition, has
been discovered, and thS-e is no doubt but
what Warmers Safe Cure and its fame will
live long after such bigOtry as we have in
stauced is dead and buried.
The late eminent physician al d writer, DIR.
j. q, Holland, published IN "Scribner's
Monthly" ana showed his opinion OF such
bigotry, and no doubt was satisfied that At
lantis might possibly be discovered in pro-
prietary medicine, when he wrote editorial
ly, as follows
Nevertheless, it is fact that many of
the best proprietary medicines of the day
were more successful than many of the ply
sicians, and most of them, it should be re-
membered, were first discovered or used in
actual medical practice. When, however,
any shrewd person, knowing their virtue,
aud foreseeing their popularity, secures and
advertises them, then, in the opinion of the
bigoted, all virtue went out of them.n

LIVING TOO FAST.
Advice to Young Men who Arc Inclined
to Spend More Than They Earn.

| Advice to Young Men who Aro Inclined
to Spend More Than They Earn.
A great cause of disaster in the
careers Of many bright young men is
an unfortunate propensity for living
too fast. In the majority of cases where
young men turn out TO be defaulters
and embezzlers, we find that they were
led into their evil ways by passion
upon their part to dress well, live well
and stand well in II social way. Their
legitimate incomes being insufficient to
meet the necessary expenses of such II
life, they draw upon the funds OF their
employers, sometimes with the inten-
tion of repaying the amounts taken,
but in most instances this good inten-
ton upon their part becomes impossi-
BILE. A young man in Chicago, holding
n high and important position of trust
and in receipt of salary of $500 II
year, has just turned out to be n de-
faultcr for over $ll, 600. He had been
with his employers many years and
was implicitly trusted, hundreds of
thousands of dollars having passed
through his hands. 1t seems that he
fell in love with and wanted to marry
most estimable young lady, and in
order to keep up show of prosperity
which he thought would recommend
him to her favorable consideration, he
took various sums from time to
time, expecting to replace them
when payday came. He soon found
to his amazement that his pecu-
lations far exceeded his resources
He found himself at last in imminent
danger of exposure and disgrace. He
made u desperate endeavor to raise the
amount of his shortage by borrowing
of his friends, but they failed to re-
spond as he did not have the requisite
security. At last he found further
concealment impossible and, taking a
large sum of money he decamped. His
employers are anxiously looking for
him, and the American Security Com
pany, who went upon his bond, are
making strenuous efforts to put their
hands upon him; and rs they never
compromise any cases, the likelihood

hopelessly blighted by n sentence to
the penitcntiary. In speaking of this
young man, one of mis- employers said
that he has 5000 or 1000 men in his
and that if he had been
asked to choose the most faithful ant
honest of all, he would have selected
this young men who proved to be de-
faulter. He further stated that there
was n big moral in this defalcation.
That he believed the young man to be
inherently honest, but that he had at
tempted to live beyond his income;
and that the failure young men make
in trying to spend more money than
they earn, is the cause of ninety per
cent. of the embezzlements and rob-
berries of employers. Keep your eX-
penses within your income and you
will always be happy, and the time
will never come whom your heart will
stop beating at the approach of an
officer. and when you dare not make
new friends for fear of cultivating the
acquaintance OF II detective. .--Phila-

eighteen miles north of the Siuslaw river,
last Wednesday morning at $50, after hav-
ing been out three nights and two days,

destitute of clothing.
The names of the men who were landed
in safety are Edward pantryman, now in
Eugene; E. A. Curlton, messman; Z. w.

cook; NJ. Keeler, fireman; NJ. McCiain,
oiler: E. Sharplas. Jack Ross, Ed. Burns,

sailor. These eleven men walked
one mile south along the beach
to the house of John Lanahan, who
entertained them kindly. Five of the men
remained there, they being too weak to
continue the journey. The other six went
eight miles over the mountains to Captain
Cox's house, on the beach, where he gave
them dinner. From there they walked
to Florence, Thursday night where five re-
mgined. Friday morning Edward came
up on the little steam launch to the head
of the tide. He walked eighteen miles
that afternoon and stopped overnight at
the house of Mr.. Smith. Saturday he
walked till half-p 2 in the afternoon,
when he found d. g. Gay, who brought
him on horseback thirty miles to Eugene
