Here is Chinese opinion of the
United States taken from the Pckin
Gazette: alt is impossible to under
stand these barbarous people, Quo
thing IS certain; if they do thing
they do it with all their might.
Thirty years ago they had big civil
war. The whole country was turned
into military camps aud battciclds,
and everybody, even to the women
folk, were engaged in the war in one
way or another, and one army num-
bcred 1000, 900 men. And now there
arc Young men, old enough TO vote,
who had never seen company of sol
diers in their life. In fact, these pco-
pie seem to think another war will
never break out, especially in theil
part of tic world. A person can
travel clear across the American con-
tinent without seeing soldier, and
follow the main lines of travel, too
In fac', n, the present time, there is
only about one soldier for every 20OC
persons, while Russia has one soldier
to every 90"

The Uni'ed States is not particularly
rich in deposits of precious stones,
concludes the Boston Transcript. The
Census Bureau finds that tho to:al
value of precious stones and orna-
mental stones, including those that
were procured for cabinets, fourd in
the United States in 1880 was but
SiSS, ,8O7. On the other hand the value
of diamonds and other precious stones,
unset, imported into the United States
in 1889 was $l1 ,705, ,809. If gems are
to be deemed the evidence of luxury,
it is making rapid progress in the
United States. The value of the total
importations from 1870 to 1879 inclu-
sive was S26. 69S, ,2O3, aud from 1880
to 1889 inclusive we imported S87, )
1893, 144 worth, enough TO give every
man, woman and child in tho United
States q dollar gem, and leave few
cents over for Alaska diamonds. The
importation of precious stones was i'll
considerable before the war as com
pared with the magnitude the business
has obtained today. As gems are
among the most indestructible things
into which money can be transmitted,
the increase Cf the wealth of tho coun-
try by these importations lie very near.

How carelcssly many people road
newspaper and from what a poor
source popular rumors spread is shown
by the report circulated in New York
q short time ago that President Har-
rison was dead. 1t all grew out of
the fact that the New York Tribune,
in celebrating its tifticth birthday, re-
published fac simiIc of its first issue,
which happened to contain the au-
nounccment Of the death of President
William Henry Harrison. Although
this feature was in supplement,
some one read it as news and spread
the report.

A mistake by which the British
Government holds possession of slice
of United States territory as large as
Rhode Island has Just been discovered.
Ensign Moole, of the Coast and Geo
detic Survey, is authority for the
statement that the iron monuments
that mark the boundary between tho
State of Washington and British Co.
lumbia, at Blaine, Washington, are
$50 yards south of the 49th parallels
which is the true boundary. He says
that the mistake was discovered three
years ago while he was on the coast
survey steamer aud has never been
officially reported at Washington. lie
thinks that the mistake was made in
1852 by surveyors while laying off the
boundary of Montana, and that it
arose by some triilng divcrge ce from
the true line until 1t widencd to $50
yards at the Straits of Georgia.

Joe Shakespeare, the Mayor OF New

how he came by his surname. "Oh, "
said he, "you think, perhaps, | claim

Americans are after. never heard that

An interesting incident in connection

An interesting incident in connection
with President Harrison's S visit to Atlanta
was his meeting with Mr.. George Cook,
n courtly, elderly gentleman, and we'll
known piano manufacturer of Boston.
The grandfather of Mr.. Cook was the
Captain Cook who saved the life OF Gen
eral William Henry Harrison from the
Indians at the battle Of Tippecanoe. Mr.
Cook and Mrs. Cook had been spending
a few days with Governor Bullock, and
on invitation Of Mayor Hcmphill went up
the road to meet the President. The
meeting OF the two grayhaired grandsons
was very cordial, and they enjoyed a
pleasant chat during the ride into the
city.
