THE SAN FRANCISCO PRESS.

The press OF San Francisco is
by far the most provincial upon
the continent. The widening Of a
street, the laying of poultice
pavement, the rate Of taxation
any small local interest or issue,
however petty, will till the columns
OF our local metropolitan contem-
poraries with the most agonizing
sensations.-Record Union.
The iealousies which control the
press OF San Francisco would
make outsiders laugh If they but
knew the inner workings. Some
of the newspapers take grounds
on the leading questions merely
because rival newspapers take OPP
posite grounds.
They war over the most trivial
matters like SO many school girls,
and the editorial columns are gov
erned moro by the interests of the
business Office than anything else.
They are pevish, petty and sensa-
tional, and while boasting of their
Independence have very little of it.
Some of the leading questions of
the day they dare not discuss or
even allude to because "the Pow
ers'' pull the strings over them,
and they must be silent.
While assuming a highly moral
tone editorially their advertising
columns teem with the announce
ments OF we'll known harlots who
call upon their patrons to visit
them at their regular places Of
business. A country newspaper
which would publish this class OF
advertising could not live six
months.

Tho Seven wonders Of Corea.

From the North China Herald.
Corea, like the world Of the ancients, has its
Seven wonders" Briefly stated, they are as
follows: First, . hot mineral spring near Kin
shantao, the healing properties of which are
believed By the people to DO miraculous
No matter what disease may affiict the patient
dip In the wster proves efficacious. The Sec
ond wonder 10 two springs, situated at . con-
siderable distancs from each other; in fact
they have the breadth of the entire pen
insula between them They have two
peculiarities: When one Is full the other is
always empty, and, notwithstanding the OBJ
vlous fact that they are connected by q subter-
ranean passage, one is bitter and the other
pure and sweet. Tho third wonder is Q cold
wave cave-a cavern from which wintry wind
perpetually blows The force of the wind
from the cave il such that q strong man can
not stand before it. A forest that cannot be
eradicated is the fourth wonder. No matter
what injury 10 done to the roots of the
trees, which are large pines. they will sprout
up again directly like the phoenix from her
ashes. The fifth is the most wonderful Of all
It is the famous floating stone" 1t stands or
seems to stand in front Of the palace erected in
its honor. 1t is an irregular cube of great bulk.
1t appears to be resting on the ground, free
from supports on all sides; but, strange to
say, two men at opposite ends of a rope
may pass it under the stone without
encountering any obstacle whatever.
The sixth wonder is the "hot stone" which,
from remote ages. has lain glowing with heat
on the top Of high hill Tho seventh and last
Corean wonder is drop of the sweat of Bud
dha. For thirty PAGES around the temple in
which it is enshrined not blade of grass will
grow. There are no trees or flowers inside the
sacred square. Even the animals decline to
profane spot SO holy.

THE HANDcUFR TIE.


Snow let us imagine" said Mr.. Stratton,
good naturally, that We about to hold
a dark seance and that / am the medium.
Two gentlemen here are spiritusist friends of
mine while you are unbeliever. Because
you are an unbeliever you have arrived at the
conclusion that the rope used to tie me is
trick rope and SO you have brought a dozen
feet Of cotton or MANILA clothes line with you.
1 express qualification over the fact that you
have been SO thoughtful and then the tying
begins. / seat myself in a chair one OF the
plain wooden kind with a square back, place
my arms behind the back of the chair, clasp
my hands and invite you to proceed. On a
table at my elbow a dinner bell. tambourine
and violin. One of my spiritualistic friends,
who has witnessed the same feat scores of times
before, stands ready to lend assistance and d.
rect the manner in which the tying shall be
DONE 1t is usual for the medium to have q
friend-a confederate is the proper term-who
directs the tying.
I'm the present instance my friend suggests
that the most satisfactory method is the hand
cuff tie, which is the tightest, and so you pro-
coed. drawing the rope SO tightly around my
wrist that it apparently cuts into the flesh.
Then the rope is passed down and under the
chair rungs. taken forward and bound round
my left leg. 1 frequently interrupt you in
your binding process, suggesting that you
draw the rope closer. and when you get down
to my leg insist upon it. This impresses all
present with the idea that am not afraid of
being bound too firmly. which is a very strong
argument IN favor of spiritual agency In the
accomplishment of what is to follow.
"At last am bound as follows: NV hands
tied hard and fast behind my back in a hand
cuff loop, and this is drawn tight by having the
rope passed under the chair. Then my left leg
is bound to the chair leg with ropes half way to
my knee. There are no bands about my waist
and my right leg is free, which to all appear
ances is of little importance. The curtain
drops and am left alone. Almost instantly
the bell begins to CHATTER. II ceases and the
tambourine shakesas though il had a six months
ague. There is a crash and the tambourine
falls to the floor. In an instant the bell fol-
lows, and if the cabinet is not too large il il

Obscure Martyrs.

They have no place in storied page,
No rest in marble shrine;
They are passed and gone with persisted age,
They died and made no sign.
But work that shall ind its wages ye.,
And deeds that their God did not forget,
Done for their love divine
These were the mourners, and these shall be
The crowns of their immortality.
o! seek them not where sleep the deaf,
Ye shall not find their trace;
No craven stone is at their head
No green grass hides their face;
But sad and unseen Is their silent grave
1t may be the sand or deep sea wave;
Or lonely desert place;
For they needed no prayers and no mourning
bell
They were tombed in true hearts that knew
them well.
They healed sick hearts till theirs were broken.
And dried sad eyes till theirs lost light;
We shall know at last by q certain token
How they fought and fell in the light
Salt tears Of sorrow unbeheld,
Passionate cries unchronicied,
And silent strfes for the right
A ngels shall court them and earth shall sigh
That she left her best children to battle and die

in comparative silence the party Of coon

T0lstOi Colonies in o Bad WAY.

From the London Daily News.
Count Tolstois colonies at Chavinsk, near
Smolensk, according to a st. Petersburg corre-
spondent, are in a bad way. Agricultural af-
fairs do not prosper and the Tolstoians have
acquired the reputation among the peasantry
Of the neighborhood of being simple fellows,
who talk much more than their work is worth.
The countS doctrine of pon-resistance to evil
has. of course, received full adoption among
the colonists. and somewhat humorous incl
dent is lately reported in connection herewith.
A boy of fourteen named Petka had been re-
ceived among them and had been made &C.
quainted with the above dogma. He had evil
IDENTIFY studied it in all its workings and pro-
ceeded to put it to practical test. At daylight
one morning he rose, threw away the rags which
covered him and put on the somewhat richer
costume of one of the Tolstoians When the
whole colony turned out to persuade him to
restore the stolen articles he boldly confronted
them with their "non-resistante" doctrine and
dared them to transgress it. The disciples of
the northern prophet were in dilemma, and
before they could get out Of it the rogue made
off.
