MARRYING FOR MONEY
Hypocrisy, Menuness and Deceit Necessary
to Gain the Desideratum.

Hypocrisy, Menuness and Deceit Necessary
to Gain the Desideratum.
Detroit Free Presa1
The man who seeks wife for the purpose
of securing the means of living without
working does not merit the respect of the
meanest person that walks about the EARTH
His intentions are so manifest that they de-
ceive no one. He plans his attack with the
ingenuity of general. His is an aggressive
eourtship, and hypocritical one as we'll.
He cannot afford to let the flame flicker for
a moment. He must act the role of decep-
tion continually.
If there should ever come the moment
when a feeling Of self-independence and
self-respect enters the young. woman's mind,
his hopes in that instant may be shattered
beyond redemption. There is the necessity
of ever-present caution and a constant re-
course to hypocrisy.

At the restaurant which visited, I was told
that 1 could have pint bowl of cat flesh
for 10 cents, and, as
4 SPECIAL DAINTY,
I was offered fried cats eyes at 2 cents
apiece. The cats are skinned before cook
ing, but the dogs are prepared for the pot in
the same wav that We make our pork. They
are killed and the bodies are soused in boil
ing water to get the hair off, A little hair
is always left on the end of the tail to show
the color of the dog, for the meat of black
dog is worth twice that of the yellow
variety, and black cats flesh is dainty,
In some parts of China you can buy dried
and smoked dogs hams, and some regions
make business of exporting them. The
season for rats is the winter, and cats are
good at any time OF the year
The Chinese are the greatest pork eaters
of the world. The pigs are the scayengers
Of the city, and they root their wav into
every quarter, and turn up the ground and
wallow in the mire on the very edge of the
Emperor's palace in Peking. You see pigs
for sale in every market, and the sucking
pig is the piece de resistance at every feast.
1t is never eaten in the roast, however, but
is hashed up into bits and stewed, and this
Omall
bits are a necessity where the chopsticks are
used, and the result is that most of the Chi
nese dishes are soups or stews or roasts cut
fine There is little beef used in China, and
good cows are practically unknown.
MILK AND BUTTER RARE.
Such milk as is offered for sale is by no
means reliable as TO cleanliness and charac-
ter. Where there is no milk there
cannot be butter and you will
find little butter in use by Asiatie nations.
In Japan all the butter used BY foreigners
has to be imported. The Chinese use oil in
the place of butter, and the Indians use a
sort of substitute for butter in ghee, which is
a sort of clarified butter. The Indians are
milk drinkers, and the sacred COWS supply
many family with q great part of their
food. In Egypt butter is often made of
buffalo's milk. and the result is a white
cheesy, tasteless, insIpid mixture. which
bears no comparison to that produced from
the Jersey COW. The Egyptian eggs are verv
small, and their chickens are not half the
size Of ours. The Chinese are the greatest
fowl raisers in the world, and they rank hicb
among the egg-eating nations. They never
eat an egg unless it be boiled hard or
picked, and the Chinese preserved eggs are
one OF the peculiarities of their gastronomv.
1t takes 40 days to cure an egg properly. Ii
is not fit to eat before that age, and, after
that, the older the better. Lime, salt and
vinegar are mixed together in the picking.
and the egg, when ready for use, is black as
coal. The Koreans are also egg eaters, and
found many of the japanese who like their
eggs raw.

The general freight agents of Chicago

The Burlington people are responsible
for the rift occasioned in the recently
uncloud railroad world; and the facts
of the case are:
Yesterday the Burlington road put a
new list of freight rates into operation,
which were equivalent to reduction of
Is cents per hundred on first-claSs ship
ments from seaboard.
The cut was discussed at meeting of
the Western Freight Association in
Chicago Saturday, and definite action
was laid over to an adjourned meeting
to-day. General Freight Agent Hamb-
lin states that the reduction is neceSSi-
tated to protect his road against
Canadian competition. There is no de-
sire to disturb local rates; the reduc-
ton is simply upon through business.
Mr.. Hamblin, in an interview, admitted
the action on his part was an infringe
ment of the long and short haul clause
of the interstate law, but argued that,
when the revenue of the road was men
aced by foreign competition, he does
not think this clause can prohibit any
action taken to protect its interests.
Other lines had more cause for COM
plant against Canadian competition
than Burlington, but" added Mr.. Ham
bin, sit was necessary for some one to
take the initiative"
Up to late hour last evening the
Wisconsin Central was the only road
reported to have met the cut, quoting
rates from all points named in the Bur-
Iington circular.

THE GARNERED CROP.

After all our murmuring about the in
tensity of the heat for the last few days,
the hot wave has been genuine bless
ing in disguise. 1t has made good
threshing weather, and that was all that
was needed to assure the success of the
wheat crop. The last danger point has
been passed, and the Northwest now re-
jOices in one of the finest crops that has
ever been known in this country; and
most of it has been garnered and ready
for the market. The wheat is already
beginning to move, and is being sold at
good figures. The samples of wheat
shown by the various elevator lines,
from houses widely apart, show an al
most uniform excellence. Every buShel
will weigh sixty pounds, and the kernel
is light and plump, in striking contrast
to that of last year, which had dull
appearance, with shrunken kernel, in
some cases almost without filling. 1t is
now estimated that the wheat crop in
Minnesota and the DakotaS will not fall
below o5,000.0O0 bushels, and may reach
90,000.000. AS result of this uneX-
pected yield. and of the excellence of
the quality of the wheat, confidence has
been restored on every hand, and every
industrial department here in the North
west is on the rising tide. The evil
dences of an increasing prosperity are
clearly perceptible here in st. Paul.
Every sort of business is looking up,
and our business men wear an air Of
confidence that gives an unmistakable
evidence of the hopeful prospects be-
fore them

Animals as Suicides.

New York Commercial Advertiser.
A dog, tormented by boys in Broad
way yesterday, found himself unable to
escape, and thereupon, despairing of
life, twice attempted to commit suicide
by deliberately lying down directly in
the path of heavy-wheeled truck. 1t
is not likely that he had ever read or re-
fected upon Mr.. Mallock's best known
book. but evidently he saw that under
certain circumstances life is not worth
living, and so sought euthanasia and
the final rest of the cold and silent ash
barrel. Dogs have something of repu-
tation in the literature of suicide, and
no small number OF tales are told of
how they will go to certain death in
order to rescue their friends from peril,
or starve themselves to death on the
graves Of masters whom they have
loved.
But that suicide is not confined to
dogs among the lower animals is GER
tain, if we are willing to put faith in
very remarkable and ingenious tale told
by Lord Dufferin in his Letters From
High Latitudes," which is the record of
a voyage he once made to Iceland. On
board his yacht there was cock well
used to Growing at dawn in England,

THE NOVELTY OF 1T.

A peculiar phase of the FIELD-TERRY
tragedy is that ON the trial of NAGLE
the state of California and the United
States government will be pitted against
each other. 1t is the duty of the state
authorities to prosecute NAGLE, and it
will be equally the duty of the federal
government to defend him, inasmuch
as he was acting under the instructions
OF the attorney general OF the United
States. The law of self-defense is SO
well understood in this country that if
it had been Judge FIELD who shot his
assailant, the case would have been re-
ieved of all complications. There
would have been no dissension of
opinion as to the justifableness of the
homicide. There is equal unanim-
ity now as to the righteousness
of the act, although it was done
by proxy; yet the law makes no
provision for killing by proxy except
in a limited number of instances,
and this case does not happen to come
within the limitation. BLACKSTONE.
HALE and other eminent authorities
lay down the principle that the extra
judicial or eccentrical kind of remedy,
such as NAGLE resorted to, is permits
Sible in defense of one's self OF the mu-
tual and reciprocal defence of such as
stand in the relations of husband and
wife, parent and child, and master and
servant. Unless this principle of law
can be so twisted as to put the deputy
marshal in the relation of a servant to
the judge, there can be no legal jGstif-
cation of the homicide. The case at
least viii present novel question, and
one without precedent in American
Jurisprudence. Of course TERRY's
character enters as an element in
NAGLE's defense, and will go long
way towards furnishing the govern
ment with a precedent by which it can
establish it's right to insure the safety
of judges while in the performance of
public duty.

PENSIONS FOR THE AGED.
The Pennsylvania Company About
to Adopt q New Policy.


to Adopt New Policy.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 19.-The Penn
Sylyania railroad company is about to
adopt policy toward its employees
more important than any in its history.
Arrangements are being made to estab-
fish pension system, the, first of its
kind in the United States, and the step
will attract wide attention. The pen
sion plan will be introduced in cOnnec-
tion with the cOmpany's relief associa-
ton. At the end of the associations
last fiscal year, the third of its his
tory it was found that there was sur
plus in the treasury, after the payment
of all benefits, of S170,7S9. The exist
ence of this balance suggested the intro
ductiOn of pensions to SuDerannuated
members of the relief association. A
special committee of the advisory COM
mittee of the association approved the
project, the advisory committee Itself
took the same attitude, and another sub
committee was appointed to propose a
plan. This committee met recently
at Cape May and adjourned after
discussing various plans to meet
at a later day. There are certain
complications to be adjusted before the
pension system can be put in force.
Those employees who have put their
money into the association did so with
the understanding that the fund was to
be drawn from only to pay death, acct
dent and sick benefits. If the new
plan, involving the payment of pen
sonS as well, shall be adopted, the con-
sent of members of the association will
first have to be obtained, but no diff
nj thic &c tnh
President Roberts has taken hearty
interest in the plans, and has offered to
recommend to the companies assO-
ciated in the fund contribution of
$4,000 to help establish the pension
