HARDLY CON SISTENT.

Why a Chinese Girl Was Sent Back to
the FIowery Kingdom.
The arrival of the China steamer
Gaelic recently brought a handsome
Chinese girl, apparently not much over
10 years old. She had no papers, and
was released on the usual writ of habeas
corpus, along with score of others.
The writ was returned a few days ago
and with it the fair Tossing. She claimed
to be married, and said that her hus-
band lived in San Francisco. Between
herself and an assistant attorney for
the prosecution the following converse
ton ensued through an interpreter:
Glow old may you be ?" commenced
the attorney.
Nineteen years." was the prompt re-
ply.
"Yes, sir"
"Where were you married? ?"
Gin China, five years"
"Have you ever seen your husband ?"
"No, sir. He was always been in San
Francisco"
"Well, well. And is it custom in
China to marry man without seeing
him."
eyes, sir
"And you never seen your husband,
then ?"
'No, sir"
"Would it be too much to ask you to
tell the the court how many children you
have?"
1.-TWO"
This answer fairly paralyzed the court,
and the almond-eyed damsel was or
dered to return to her children.-Globe-

A Twenty-six-lnch Foot.

We take the following from an old
sample copy of the Peach Springs
(Ariz.) Champion: 1.-TWO miners who
have lust returned from Grand Canyon
report most marvellous discovery. In
the basin of the canyon, which was
once a sand bed, and probably thou
sand of years ago a broad level plain,
they came upon a perfect imprint of a
human foot in the hard sand rock. 1t
was Enthusiastically human foot, for
the toes, heel and every portion were
plainly outlined, the imprint being ap-
parently made when the sand of which
the rock is composed was in a plastic
state. 1t measured 26 inches in length
and nearly y in width. While they
were puzzling over this curiosity one of
the mule drivers found several others,
all the same size Of the first. They
were distinctly and evenly eighteen feet
apart, showing the great distance which
that monster with human foot could
step at a single stride. x 1t is
the intention to return in a few days
and take out some of these gigantic
footprints and put them on exhibition
as evidence Of the existence of human
monsters in this part of America thou

peared before the court of Spain"

ISLAM MIS- M.
A Religious Idea Which Dominates an
Entire People.

"A ReuSlOuS IDEA WmCn dominates an
Entire People.
The Mohammedan people have but
one single princi ple-that is, their relig-
ion. Islamism is not a religion like
Christianity, which divides the temporal
society and the spiritual, the civil life
and the religious. In Islam there is
society is conducted by that one idea of
religion; and that religion has one
dogma which Europe, SO it appears to
us, has not been able 10 seize as firmly
as it has been held by Mohammedans.
The one Mohammedan dogma is the
unity of God. For the Mussulman
there is nothing but God. The whole
creation is governed by God. The
Mussulman is born with a mission to
worship God, and to do nothing but
what is ordered by God. What is the
object of creation by God? Only to be
worshiped by the faithful believer.
And what is the mission of the be-
lever? To fight those who seem to him
to have abandoned the worship of the
ore God. Such are the only ambitions
of Mussulman, to worship God and to
offer relentless opposition to those who
have associated God, or seem to have
associated Him, with one other object
of worship. The ambition and the as
piration Of the Mussulman people are
not to have railways and telegraphs, or
great empires, although not averse to
these things in themselves; their chief
object is only to serve God, to worship
God and to fight against those who do
not worship Him exclusively, and to
die and 90 to paradise. That's the only
principle that governsall Mohammedan
people.
Now, this great dogma of the unity
and sim p1icity of God seems to them
almost in direct contradiction with your
dogma of the Trinity and with your dog
ma of the divinity of Jesus, and for that
reason Mohammedans have great re-
pugnance to anything which comes
from Europe. When your civilization
| presents itself to the Mohammedan
people it presents itself under the pro-
lection of Christianity, but to a Moham-
medan people nothing is worth having
when it emanates from a hostile relig
ion. Yougo to Afghanistan or to Persia
or Africa and you say, owe come to
teach you how to make railways, how
to spread your trade, how to bring pros
perity to your country" but those peo-
pie know that you come as Christians,
and they believe that your object is
simply to spread your religion and not
merely your civilization.
How should they think otherwise =?
Their own highest Ideals to spread their
faith, and they believe, wrongly per-
haps, that the Christians have the same
object, and that their desire in anything
they do is really to fight Islam in order
to propagate Christianity. They are con-
WINGED of that, and unfortunately your
policy and your whole history give
some color to that belief They know
that your sovereign is the Defender of
Faith, and that the Emperor of Russia
is the head of the Church. And besides
that, the whole history of Asia Minor
ity They know well the history of the
Crusades, and they think that your
present policy still is crusade, but on

and Their Diplomacy.
One evening when Washington Irving,
Everett and Bancroft were chatting over
diplomatic "reminiscences, Everett told
how he and the Neapolitan ambassador
had been presented to Her Majesty,
Queen Victoria. Lord Melbourne init
mated that they would be expected to
join in game of whist with the Duchess
of Kent.
4 play but a very poor game myself"
said Melbourne; ''in fact, I scarcely I'M
derstand it"
''And l." said the Neapolitan to Ever
EFT, "am very bad player, and should
| chance to be your partner | invoke
your forbearance in advance" to which
the American envoy replied that he
knew very little Of the game himself.
Here" said Everett in relating it,
"were three dignlfed persons, clad in
gorgeous attire, solemnly going to play q
game they imperfectly understood, and
for which none of them cared straw"
Upon reaching the Duchess apart
ments the ambassadors were formally
presented, and then at her invitation
sat down TO play.
AS soon as the cards were dealt, a lady
in-waiting placed herself at the back of
the Duchess, and the latter said: Your
exceilencies will excuse me if [ rely on
the advice Of my friend here, for [ must
confess that | am really a very poor
player"
This was almost too much for Ever
ett's gravity, and it was only with the
greatest effort that he could refrain from
laughing aloud at the ludicrous formality
of the situatiOn.-BOstOnG Globe.
