But before that the head of every
family has gone up, and, giving a sym
pathetic handshalle to the father, has
made him understand that they are all
in unison with him in his grief Back
they go, the friends all walking as they
came, the colored people at the back as
quiet as if they knew that even in
heaven that happy soul did not want to
hear noise and commotion. And just
as the sun is going down, a clear voice
from among them takes up the hymn
that the dead girl so well liked, and
with their clear, rich voices they sang
what so many of us need to sing, and it
seemed as if in the dim twilight there
must be an answer to it, at least to her
who had been led where she wished

The late Laurence Oliphant, jour
nalist and man of letters, was once the
correspondent of the London Times,
which, in France, was hated paper.
He attended revolutionary meeting at
Lyons, where the popula ton had begun
to commit desperate excuses. He knew
French so we'll and had so cleverly as
sumed the guise of a workingman, that
he was not suspecte d; but suddenly a
rumor was announced to the meeting
that an emissary of the brutal London
Times was there. At once the mob was
in an uproar, and loud cries resounded
of LET us find him! kill him. to the
river with him. Oliphant jumped to
his feet with look of overwhelming
Indignation, shouting at the top of his
voice, Lets find him. know him by
sight," Under cover of this zeal, and
hunting everywhere for the detested
Englishman, he made his escape

CHINESE PRINTING OFFICE.
The Type Is Stuck Into Clay and Held by II
Until the Work Is Done.

The Type Is Stuck Into Clay and Held by 1t
Until tho Work Is Done.
One of the most interesting places in
Pekin is Chinese printing office, con-
Quoted Just as it was centuries before
the barbarous world outside of the
flowery empire had dreamed of the art
of Typography, The Office contained
score of plain square tables, on which
the cases of type were spread out,
much after the English method, only
taking up much more room, One man
was engaged in setting up type; another
was printing. The former stood before
table on which was what may be
called the Chinese ease" 1t was a
solid block of hard wood about twenty
two inches long by fifteen inches broad,
and perhaps three inches deep. The
inside was followed out to Il depth of
about quarter of an inch, this depres-
sion being still further followed out
into grooves about three-quarters of an
inch deep The block had twenty nine
of these grooves, each filled to depth
of quarter of an inch with ordinary
stiff clay.
With his copy before him, armed with
IL small par Oh IRON plncerS' IHe coh-
positor began his work; character after
character was transferred from the case
and firmly pressed into the clay. When
the form was complete fiat board
was placed on the top and the charac-
ters pressed perfectly even and level
with the surface, and the wooden edge
was cut to form the border found round
every Chinese Dape
The printer now received the form
and carefully brushed the ink over the
type. Taking a sheet of paper, he
pressed it down all over the form so
it might be brought into contact with
every character. He then removed the
sheet and examined each character,
carefully adjusting those which were
not quite straight with the pincers, and
apparently never touching the type
with his fingers. After sufficient copies
had been struck off the type was dis
tributed each character being returned
to it's particular box. The type in the
form was of three sizes, each character
being kept in place entirely by the clay
in which it stood. They were cut out
of some hard wood and were perfectly
Square.-N. Y. Tribune.
