Correcting the Slant of Japanese Eyes.

Correcting the Slant of Japanese Eyes.
"The Japanese are not only adopting
American social and business customs,
but they are also trying to conform their
physical features to the appearance of
Americans" said H. D. Neumann, of
San Francisco. 81 was in Yokohama
recently and met there several Amer
lean and German doctors who were get
ting rich by Strengthening the slant in
the Japanese eye to make it look like
the beloved Caucasian's optic. The jap
anese, you know, show the traces of
their Mongolian origin more plainly in
the shape of their eyelids than in the
color of their skin, and those who can
afford it are. ridding themselves of this
unmistakable evidence of their ancestry
by submitting to simple and compare
lively painless surgical operation, which
consists in thesurgeon splitting the outer
rim of the eyehds in a straight line for
the barest infinitesimal part of an inch.

in the Japanese eyelid will entirely dis

Manager Powers has shown good
judgment in one respect, no matter how
much he may be blamed for New York's
poor showing in the race. He is about
the only person who placed any conf
dence in Edward Crane at the time
when that corpulent young man was
pitching very chrome baseball. Crane

The lack of backstop material is badly
felt in the Los Angeles team, and the
quicker Glenalvin gets good catcher
the club will be better guarded against
mishaps. Manager Harris should take
warning from the crippled condition
that Los Angeles was in last week. If
Spies became hurt there would be no
one in the club to go behind the plate.
Oakland is pretty well supplied with
catchers in Wilson, Carroll. Stevens,
and-as last resort-Tip O'Neil. The

The sense of Touch.

''There is nothing" said philosopher,
s'about which there is more general
misapprehension among all classes of
people than in regard to the relative
sensitiveness of the mentality of man
and womankind. You would say, prob
ably without any hesitation, that the
sense of touch of the gentler sex was
much mo &slcute than that of their
brothers; - 5hat is very great error.
"Take, for example, the employees of
this government who count out the gold
coin in the treasury, and by an almost
magic faculty, as it were, are enabled
by a supersensitive refinement of the
sense of touch to Immediately separate
the lightweight coin from that which
abrasion has not yet affected. They are
all men, and the faculty which they at
tain in their work is really something
simply amazing. Do you ever hear of a
woman being employed in this work?
Not one; and it is undoubtedly because
they do not have the sense of touch to the
same degree of refinement as men do.
''There is another line of work afforded
by the big safe manufacturers of the
land-the opening of safes of which the
combinations have been lost. Men are,
employed by the manufacturers to do.
this, and big salaries are paid to those
who have the sense of touch developed
to such a degree that they can feel the
slight jar that tells when to turn the
lock back in itself to the next number in
the combination. There are few men
who can do this, and SO it happens that
time lock alone is absolutely safe; but
no woman, so far as I know, has ever
developed the faculty. Now, I'm an adj
mirer of women, my boy, and / don't
say what do in criticism, but simply as
astatement of strange phenomenon.

Nearly 200 boys of the Whittier state
school, accompanied by Sups. Walter
Lindley and staff, arrived yesterday
from Whittier to take part in the Fourth
of July procession. The Southern Pa
cifc Railroad company kindly furnished
transportation free of CHARGE. Preceded
by its band and drum corps, the bows
paraded behind the national guard and
it was the general expression that they
presented an excellent appearance.
Their uniforms Of blush gray are very
tasty and their martial bearing showed
that they have undergone considerable
drilling to good advantage. After the
parade the pupils were marched to- the
Church of the Unity, at she cornsr of
Third and Hill streets, where DIR.
Thompson welcomed them in o few
heartfelt words. DR.. Lindley responded
and then the boys sat down to AN ex-
cellent dinner provided by the ladies of
the church, who waited upon their
guests. In return for their hospitality
the wards of the state saaga number of
songs in very profciens manner. They
then marched to the aruory of tine Sew

LONDON, Feb. 10. The mortal re-
mains Of the Rev. Charles III. Spurgeon
now lie within the tabernacle he Gre
ated and among the thousands of his
friends and congregation. The coffin is
placed on platform in the open space
In the center within view of every per-
son ON the floor and in the four con-
yerging galleries, which are packed. 1t
Ia covered with wreaths and flowers and
the platform upon which it rests is sur
rounded with palms Vast crowds
had been waiting In front or the edifice
for hours to see the remains. The doors
were opened at 2 o'clock. A steady
stream of people arrived at the door on
the right, passed the coffin and made
their exit ut the door on the left. It Is
estimated that several thousand people
passed hourly, under the direction of
fifty policemen, who regulated and con-
trolled their movements without inter-
ruption or confusion.
Up to p. m. it was estimated 100, 900
people had passed through the taber-
nacls before Rev. Surgeons coffin. The
throng composed people OF every class
in life. Many were workmen with their
tools, and evidently on their way to
their places Of employment. Others had
driven up to the doors in private car
riages and were evidently of the wealthy
class. Many clergymen were also in
line, and numbers Of well known mer-
chants. But the great mass of those who
paid their r. poets to the great precher's
memory were of the middle class and
working people. Most Of them wore
signs OF mourning. Some threw flowers
on the casket, and many wept as they
passed before the bier.

LONDON, Feb. 10 Parliament was
opened at 2p. m. by the reading of the
speech from the throne by the lord
chief Justice. The queen refers to the
death of the Duke of Clarence and Ay-
ondale, then to the foreign relations of
the country, which she says ARE all
friendly. Irish affairs are spoken of as
follows:
Proposals will be laid before you for
applying to Ireland the general princi-
pies affecting local government which
have already been adopted I'M Great
Britain. I trust it may be possible to
consider the provisions as to English
local government which, for want of
time, it was necessary to omit from the
bill. Measures for increasing the num-
Der of small holdings of land il agri-
cultural districts in Great Britain will be
submitted for approval. You will be
asked to consider bill for extending
the advantages of assisting in education
in Ireland for other purposes connected
with elementary education ih that
country. A scheme for modifying the
existing system of procedure on private
bills, so far as it affects Scotland and
Ireland, viii be brought before yDu.
MeCarthyites Discuss 1t.
The McCarthyites, shortly after the
queens speech had been delivered, held
meeting in committee room No. Is
and discussed the speech in all its bear
ings. particularly SO far as the proposed
legislation for Ireland is concerned. It
is said that the McCarthyites viii be
able to decide very soon upon their
future action. There was full attend

10 Was to the President Stating His Post
tion Toward tho United States.
SAN ANToNIA, Tex, Fs "a sem
sation was created among the Mexican
population and in military circles here
to-day, by the publication OF letter
addressed to the Hon. d. Harrison,
president Of the United States, from
Catarina E. CARA, the revolutionary
leader in FL Chinaco, the leading Span
ish newspaper of this city. The letter
ID dated La Sierrieta, state of Tamau-
lapas, Mexico, Jan. 81, 1892. In his
preliminary remarks to the editor Garza
states that he has forwarded President
Harrison the letter, but that he fears
that the latter win not make it public,
and as he desires to have his position
and actions toward the United States
cle1rly understood, he sends a copy
OF the letter to the Ell Chinaco for publi-
cation. He offers strong objection to
bsihg charged with having violated the
neufrality laws and defends his action
as follows: Being resident of Texas
when ] decided to raise the banner Of
insurrection in my beloved country,
Mexico, it was but natural, logical and
inevitable that should travel, be it
alone or accompanied, through your
territory in order to reach Mexico. That
such action has absolutely nothing to
do with the so called neutrality laws is
generally conceded by public interna-
tional and political right"
He continues in this strain through
out his whole letter. He gives no news
concerning the progress of the move
ment of which he is at the head.
