STRIKES IN CHINA.
The WOrkmen Do Not Lose Very Much
 Time.


 Time.
 In China, as is well-known, things are tOpsy-turvy, and even workmen's strikes are different there from those in West ern lands. Recently, says the London Times, strike took place at the great arsenal at Klangnan, where about two thousand men are employed. It appears that the custom has always been eight hours work per day since that estab- lishment was founded, over twenty years ago. The new director, consider ing this amount too little for the wages paid, resolved to increase it to nine hours. The wOrkmen steadily refused. The majority were against the innoya- tion, and the minority, who were in considerable force, were completely in timated. Hence, on the morning when the new regulation was to commence. the steam was raised in the boilers, the whistle sounded, and the machinery was set in motion as usual, but not workman dared to pass inside the gates to work. It looked at first as if this state of things might last for months, for both sides showed no symptoms of relenting. But things go by contraries in China. In the afternoon the work men, seeing that they made no impress sion on the directors, who could easily stop all work for an indefinite time, concluded that discretion was the bet ter part of valor, and gave in. Half a day was all the time lost, and the extra hours work is now done as regularly as if it had been the rule from the first.

A New version of an Old Joke.

A pretty typewriter joke doesn't always
work one way. There is one well to do
down town merchant at least who has
reason to believe that there is variety in
STYLES of the Jest. This merchant is care
fui perscn-the characteristic helped to
make him what he is financially-and he
proposed to run no risks of family discord
through his selection of a secretary. In
fact so sure was he that his typewriter
would never introduce the green eyed
monster into his domestic circle that he
merely announced one evening that he had
that day employed performer on the lit
erary piano and Their ,l''oonrif,sad the subject.
He heard nothing more about it for a
month or so, but then he went home one
afternoon TO find his wife in state of mind
with an open letter in her hand. The let
ter. it was quickly explained, had dropped
from the merchants pocket that morning.
1t was an innocent note in its way from
business associate, but just at the end If
had this sentence: Met your typewriter

said the merchant until half al hour later
he and his spouse reached his office. 1.-THE

TO small room. "Yor go in there and
settle this thing yourself" In went the
wife, and in moment she was back again
with dazed look on her face. Just behind

A New Hypnotic Story of the Heart


After putting the patient through what

his heart. Doctor, will you put your finger
upon his left pulse. while | keep mine

physician Of the town who had known the
patient from childhood. DR.. - was scep-
teal and hostile, but at our instance he
consented. Keeping one hand on the lads
wrist, Lewis laid the other gently over his
heart. Within a minute or two the patient

counted the decreasing strokes till he an-
nounced that they were scarcely recogni-

DR.. was extremely unwilling to
speak; but, under che urgency of some of

words that the pulse had sunk to almost
nothing The boy Stood a CHASTITY statue,
for minute longer, when Lewis, saying
hurriedly, 1.-THE pulse is now impercept-
ible; We must protract this no longer" took
away his hand from the breast to the evil

it was TO the evident relief too, of their
common patient.

The picturesque inland town of South
port, which has attracted SO many visit
ors by it's primitiveness and refreshing sea
breezes, possesses no town hall, town
pump nor town crier; neither does it boast
any physician, undertaken, grave stone
ealer lawyer or barber; nor on its streets
and highways can be found any black
smith shop, apothecary shop. milliner's
shop, shoe Dealers establishment, jewel
er's store or fish market; nor is there any
settled pastor to dispense gospel truths to
the people, but still the town gets on very
well. The church pulpit is occupied about
every Sunday, and when the services of any
professional gentleman are needed he is
summoned from the next town. The peo-
pie live quietly but comfortably. and they
learn to do without many things that most
people count among the necessaries OF life.

BY common consent the vital condition
Of club is what is called the gentlemanly
honor of its members. 1t is the general
confidence that no club man will do un-

some sad incident, discovered that they are

no Solve tine Cheap Fuel Problem.

Among the latest attempted solutions of
the cheap fuel problem is the method of a
German inventor, who proposes TO manu-
facture gas by dropping a stream of crude
petroleum through blast of cold air from
a force pump. The gas thus obtained will
be confined in a regular cylinder open at
one end, where it will be lighted. This
produces an intensely hot flame Of several
feet in length. BY means of this fame the
inventor proposes to heat boilers, and he
maintains that the heating Of large blocks
can thus be reduced very considerably

Russia, the orthodox church in Turkey
and the national church in Greece. The
ear, through the holy synod OF st. Peters

the Greek church, but VIRTUALLY his sway
does not extend any further. The Turkish
branch of that faith is under the head of
