They MorshIn n Log.

There is a log of yellowish colored
wood standing just outside of Chi Hua
gate, Pekin. This log has remained in
its present position since the fall Of the
old Ying dynasty. 1t is in good preser-
walton, and has commanded the respect
of all classes and conditions of people.
Insects in China usually make inroads
on timber in a very short while, but
they are said never TO alight upon this
sacred tree trunk, and it is true that
they have mo- left a single trace of their
work upon it. while the timbers in every
direction are a perfect honeycomb OF
insect work.
The Chinese people believe that the
log is the habitation Of ONE god, and
on that recount gather and worship at
its base at least nee a year. Among
the higher classes the day for this
unique species Of worship is the first OF
each succeeding month, unless that day
should happen TO be a new moon day.
On Oct. / of every year the emperor
commands the board of ceremonies &c

The mother of Heinrich Heine, the
poet, was particularly careful about
matters of etiquette, and her boys were
brought up with great stnctness, and
occasional severity. Among other
things, she was extremely decided in
her ideas of table etiquette, and her
ehildren's manners in this regard were
then thought quite i~rreproachable.
They were taught, when they were
guests at a table. never to a all the
food which was put On their plates; a
portion must always be left for re-

they must never take more than a GER
tain fixed amount of sugar in their cups
of coffee. 20 matter what the cravings
for il might be.
This last rule was a great trial TO
Macmillan, Heinrich's younger brother,
who had a particularly sweet tooth.
On one occasion Frau Heine and her
children were at a garden restaurant in
the suburbs Of the city, and had been
enjoying the fresh air and good coffee
at the same time. As they rose to leave
the table Max, then seven years old,
saw hat a large and tempting piece Of
sugar had been left in the sugar bowl.
Thinking himself unobserved he quickly
seized it and put it in his mouth.
Unfortunately for him he had been
noticed by Heinrich, who, without
meaning TO be a talebearer, ran to his
mother with an expression Of horror on
his face, Is if he expected some calam-
ity would instantly befall them, and
said in a shocked and astOunded tone;

Wages are Restored.

The Chicago. Milwaukee & St Paul
company has raised the wages of its ems
ployes to the same standard as they were
before last years reduction. At the time
of the reduction a number of the cons
psny's station agents and train dispatch
ers quit work in the hope of creating a
general strike, but it was averted by the
companys officials guarau tetiug that the
old wages would be resumed as soon as
business warranted it. With the recent
increase in business in consequence Of
the heavy crops the company has kept its
promise. and the old scale went into eff
feet Tuesday.
There is report that nine passenger
conductors, some men of long service,
have been discharged from the employ of
the st. Paul road. Assistant Superin-
tendent Mckenna says that if anything
of the kind has been done he is not aware
of it. If the company is contemplating a
reduction of its double force of ticket
puuchers. it had better commence on the
collectors and remove the odium which
has been attached to the St. Paul ever
since their advent in its service.

What Tn v Are GOOD Far

Brandreth's pills are the best medicine
known.
First They are purely vegetable, 10
fact medicated food.
Second-The same dose always pro-
duces the same effect-other purgstives
require increased doses and finally cease
acting.
Third-They purify the blood.
Fourth-They invigorste the digestion
and cleanse the stomach and bowels.
Ffth-They stimulate the liver and
carry of vitiated bile and other deprayed
secretions.
The first two or three doses tell the
story. The skin becomes clear, the eye
bright. the mind active. digestion is re-
stored. costiveness cured. the animal
vigor is recruited and all decay arrested.
Brandreth's pills are sold in every drug
and medicine store, either plain or sugar
coated.

which has of late been hoveriog

every indication of being desperate

AT the council meeting last evenin 2
Mayor Ficke presen ed the following
communication TO the council:
Davenport, Iowa. Dec Q, 9t Gen.
tlemen of the council: Although six
weeks have elapsed since the street rail,
way conft renee committee filed its re-
port and recommendations, the Daven.
port & Rock Island Street Railway com.
psny has so far manifested no disposition
to accept an ordinance as recommended
by that committee. Meanwhile COM
plants continue to come In that said
company is not furnishing satisfactory
service.
Chapter 81 of the revised ordinances of
1884 provides, among others, that all or
dinsnces thereafter passed whereby spe
cial privileges are granted. shall at all
times BY vote of two-thirds of the coun.
Gil be subject 10 amendment or repeal,
unless the contrary be expressed on the
face thereof.
Iuasmuch as the ordinances under
which said railway company possesses
the right to occupy our streets were
passed since the adoption of the above
chapter, it is manifest that the city has
the power to enact such amendments to
said ordinances as will compel said com.
pany to furnish satisfactory service
L therefore suggest that a committee be
appointed TO determine what amend
ments should be made to the street car
ordinances and that the city attorney be
lnstruc ed to prepare an ordinance in
com pliance with the recommendations OF
such. committee, and that action be take
on same at an adjourned meeting of this
council to be held at an early day.
