The Isthmus OF Panama.

More men nave died and are buried
on the Isthmus of Panama, along the
line of the proposed canal. than on any
equal amour of territory in the world.
1t was in 1887, the year before the
final collapse of the canal scheme
came. that chance took me to the
Isthmus," as it is more usually de-
scr4ed. How many people are buried
out in Monkey Hill? Certainly 5000
or 5000; probably 1900 or 5000, but
it's all matter of gueSswOrk as TO the
exact number. But the ground about
Aspinwall only holds small percent
age of the men who have died on the
isthmus. The city of Panama, OF
course, lays claim to the largest num-
Der of burials, but | can say without
exaggeration that the entire line of the
railroad and canal from the Atlantic to
the Pacific is IL continuous graveyard.
At Matochin alone over $500 Cinnamon
met their death in one day. That was
% or 80 years ago. while the Panama
Railroad was being built. and long be-
fore work on the canal was begun.
Ten thousand Cinnamon had been

canal. Over one-half of them were
camped at what is now Matochin.
Smallpox broke out among them, and
the mortality became SD great that the
Cinnamon, always easily excited. be-
came panic stricken. and, preferring
to die by drowning, ran down the steep
sides of the hills near their camp and
threw themselves into the Chagres
River. As have said. $500 of them
drowned. 1t was because OF this fact
that the name of the camp was changed
to Muertechino, muerte meaning
dead in Spanish and Chino signify
ing Chinumau. The name has since be-
come perverted to Matochin. 1t is
saying. believed by many on
the isthmus. that every tie on the
Panama Railroad represents a dead
man.-St. Louis Republic.

A Terrible Mistake.

A young gentleman had an engage
ment with the daughter of a prosper
Gus citizen to attend the theater, says
the Louisville Post. The young lady
suggested that they use the family car
riage, and the gallant was too polite to
decline. On the morning of the en-
gagement the young lady asked her
father to please stop in Mr.. Bowersox's
Office and inquire where he wanted the
carriage to call for him. The kindly
old gentleman did so. He stepped in
the office, and, calling to the young
man, said:
Il want to see about that carriage"
"Wait a moment" said the youth,
evidently agitated. He laid down his
pen, and, coming from behind the
desk, led his visitor into a far corner.

A FAMOUS WOMAN ASTRONOMER.

One of the first American women to
obtain celebrity as an astronomer was
Maria Mitchell, who was born 10 Man
tucket, Mass, August 1, 1918. She was
the daughter of William Mitchell, an as
tronomer, by whom she was taught, and,
after receiving her education, aided him
in his work. At the age Of eighteen she
became librarian of the Nantucket Athe-
neum, remaining there for twenty years,
devoting her leisure to her favorlte
science. She made speciality of the
study of nebule, made careful observa-
tions and searched for comets. She dis
covered several nebule and found a
comet on October 1, 1874, which dis
covery was confirmed by her father,
Professor w. g. Bond, of Harvard, and
several Italian astronomers.
The King of Denmark presented her
with gold medal for this, aud the Re-
public OF San Marine, in Italy, had a
copper medal struck in her honor. Dur
ing the rest of her life she discovered
seven other comets. She made a trip to
Europe in 1858, and visited the family
of Sir John Herschel, and was enter
tanned by the distinguished English as
tronomer, Sir George B. Airy. She was
received by Leverrier in Paris, and by
Humboldt in Berlin, where she also met
Encke, whose name is associated with
wonderful comet Detroit Free Press.

The POst0fflce in China.

For many centuries public dispatches
have been conveyed through China by
means of Department of the Board OF
War. Post roads, originally excellent
but now disgraceful, radiate from Pekln
to all parts of the empire, and at dis
tances regulated by the nature OF the
country are stations where a supply OF
horses is supposed to be kept-nuch as
in Sheraton the furthering OF official
correspondence. Despite the badness Of
the roads and the generally dilapldated
condition of the ponies (they are hardly
big enough to be called horses, surpris'
ing distances are, on urgent occasions,
covered BY this means. In theory the
greatest speed is some two hundred miles
a dav. and it is claimed that this is often
actually attained. But in this. tor China,
rapid means of communication the gen.
eral public is n. permitted to share, any
more than it may in England avail itself
of the services of Queens messenger.
1t is not to be imagined that a verltable
nation of shopkeepers like the Chinese
would remain, owing this refusal OF their
Government to convey their correspond
ence, destitute of a postal service. Tney
have indeed very complete system Of
their own, entirely independent OF thf
State. In every town of any size may b
seen ten or a dozen shops with the slgr
Hsin Chu, dieter Office or postal estao
l1shment, suspended outside. Thel'
business is to carry, not letters only, but
small parcels, packets of silver, and the
like, usually to other towns in the same
province, but also on occasion to other
provinces. They are in fact general car
riers, or perhaps it would be fairer to say
they occupy much the same position II
China now as did the "agents" at Har
wich and Dover of the Postmaster
General at the beginning of the eight
zenith century-so miscellaneous are tn

They have no fixed tariff varying accord

no limit, within reason to the size

charge for letters is fairly constant, ou
in estimating the cost of conveyance o
parcels the size and shape alone seer
to be taken into account. A rough ca
culation is then made, which the sende
is at liberty--if he can-to abate. l
