The Practical Chinese.

In many respects the Chinese are
most rational and practical race. Here
is case in point. During recent anti
foreign-devil riot at some place between
Tong-tu and Kaiping, the mob, by way
of emphasizing its patriotic sentiments,
destroyed good length of the railway
that has recently been carried through
the district. The local mandarin, in
stead Of using the forces under him TO
quell the riot, sent his soldiers to assist
in the pious work. The embankments
were levelled for some distance, and the
rails thrown into the river, and an at
tempt was made to destroy the bridges.
Mr.. Kinder, the head engineer of the
line, laid the state of the case before the
Toatoi of Tientsin, who is the head
director of the undertaking. The Toa
tot sent for the mandarin, and addressed
him thus:
''To please yourself and friends you
have destroyed the railway track. To
please me you will put it back just as it
was before. If, one month from to-
day, the trains are not running the same
as before, you loose your head, and your
family and ancestors are disgraced. Mr.
Kin Ter estimates the damage and loss by
nOn-running of trains at so, 900 tacls
(about S62, 500. which sum you will
have to pay out of your own funds to
the company. For labor, all your Off
GERS, soldiers and the townsfolk will
work as you direct, receiving no money
for their labor; and all salaries are
stopped till the repairs are complete. l
shall appoint board Of punishment to
return with you, with power to torture
and imprison anyone who makes the least
disturbance or trouble"
The mandarin begged for mercy on
the plea that, as the country was all I'M
der water, he could not possibly get mud
and stones wherewith to build the en-
banknents. The Toatoi saw the force
of this plea, and said he would give him
a chance, He could pull down any of
his forts he liked in order to provide
material for the repair of the railway,
and he would give him three months
after the railway was completed to re-
build his forts at his (the mandarin's) ex-
pense. In rather under three weeks the
trains were running again, and they are
now rebuilding the forts.-L01Ddon

The Old Battlefields.

General Butterfield said the other even
ing, that the Count of Paris was very
much struck on his recent visit to the
Virginia battlefelds with the clearness
with which the lines of the contending
armies were still outlined. Everything
is as it used to be over twenty years ago.
The pine shrubs and oats overgrow the
bloody angle at Spottsylvania Court
House, but the ear+hworks are still intact.
About there the Count picked up many
MIME balls, and canteens and saber belts
are scattered about in profuslon where
Hancock's and Upton's men made one Of
the most brilliant charges of the war.
The old McCool house, in the rear of the
angle is standing still, though all its
shingles were shot off during the battle.

4 Protest from joaquin Miller

Europe is the grave and California the
cradle. / do not quarrel with those men
and women who turn back to look on the
ombstones of their fathers in the old
Srsveyards of Europe now ard then; but
have little patience with those who habi,u-
ally turn from the cradle 70 the tomb
There IS very little blood or soul or snap in
such people. And maybe it Is as well that
they go TO the rear in the great battle OF
life, and remain there among the tomb
stones with the weak or wounded.
But ! do quarrel very seriously with the
press of America fer piling ali the petty
disputes of Europe on our plates morning
noon and night. We must breakfast on
the equity growls of Bismarck, lunch on
Parneil and Gladstone and dine on the
Mrs. O'Shea scandal. Meantime the
mighty and majestic Pacific empire, which
loads n treasure ship with bread and wine,
gives senators to the nation that guide the
destinies OF the world, writers of books
that are read and builders OF railroads that
belt the continent, has only paragraph!
This is ignobie. Let the ru1Eans OF
Europe growl on each other, and be
blowedi Why. the single state OF Oregon
IS OF much more importance 70 the world
today than all Germany. California IL OF
much more consequence than all England.
And rs one Of the sixty-three millions OF
Americans solemnly protest against being
forever pestered by the follies Of Europa

WHO ROBBED HIM?

A young man reported to police head
quarters yesterday morning claiming to
have been robbed of SIS. 1t was the old,
old story. He had been out the night be-
fore drinking. and along in the morning
when he was in drunken stupor, some
one took advantage of his helpless condi-
ton and relieved him of what money he
had. When he came to his senses. or
rather, his senses came to him, he found
his cash was missing. He then went to
the police station and poured forth
his tale of woe to Chief Burrows.
The chief at once set ont to unearth
the perpetrators OF the deed, and during
the day he had four of the characters" of
the city in the sweat box. Two of these
he discharged, but the other two are rest
ing in the cooler until the chief traces out
his clues. There is little doubt but that
the young man was robbed and that his
story is true, az the police in tracing the
case, found several persons who had seen
him with a sum of money at various
places during the night.

late years, his more than intimate friend
has passed away, and the American stage
mourns the loss of one who has left a void
that, for the present al least cannot be flied.
Peculiarly appropriate, therefore, is the re-
vised suggestion that, while doing honor
to the greatest of living tragedians, a SINH

artist who has gone before, Lawrence Bar
rett The matter is in the hands OF the

TO take the initiative, and If, as proposed,
the managers of only half or less of the
leading theaters of the country donated a
proportion of the net proceeds of n single

fession will be enabled To- honor itself by
doing honor to two of its mem bers, the

A BIG ENTERPRISE.

James buchanan, Esq. Of indianapolis,
ino.: an inventor, builder and owner OF
Inc Cyclone threshing machine, is in the
city. lie comes with strong letters from
1ne chief Justice of his state and other par
Ties. His visit to Kansas at this time has
connection with wheat growing on large
scale on lands in south-central Kansas,
ana the manufacture of the implements
whereby the ground is to be prepared In
addition to the separator and threshing ma
chlne he desires to build traction engines,
grain drills and sod pulverizers, all in con-
nectlon with his proposition to put in
wheat and oats on large scale on option
or leased lands. He has demonstrated
that be can by single process with his
traction engine, sod pulverizer and grain
drill combined, at one and the same time,
