NO TELEGRAPH POLES.
Religious Fanaticism Will Not Allow
Them in China.
St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

There are no telegraph poles in China.
Not because there are no telegraph lines,
nor yet because there Is not wood suitable
for use as poles. Strangely enough the
reason is purely religious. The Chinese
worship their dead fathers and grand
fathers, and regard the resting places OF
their remains as so sacred that they deem
it a sacrilege to allow shadow to be cast
upon their graves. When the linemen of
the first Chinese telegraph companies began
operations, they were greatly embarrassed
IN their undertaking by crowds of inhabi-
tants who followed them about and with
the most frghtful blasphemies cut down
the poles as last as they were arected.
For some time no explanation could be
obtained. but at last the working parties
discovered that in the moro thickly settled
districts of the Celestial empire graves were
every wheTe 10 be found, and scarcely pole
could be erected anywhere but that at some
time oft day il cast its shadow on n grave
The difficulty was insuDerable, ana the Chi
nese Government, anxious as it was to rem
der assistance. stood powerless. SO all
wires went underground. aud it is said the
system proved perfectly efficient.

FRANCES CANAL SYSTEM.
1t Is Practically Free From Tolls and
Covers Fully 5000 Miles.
81. LOUIS ot0De- democrat.


Interior navigation has long held prom
inent place in the traffic Of France, and il is
not surprising 10 learn that the length Of
navigable waterways in that country is
5000 miles, of which $50 miles are returned
as tidal. 200 miles navigabe without
works, 2250 canaized rivers and 5000 miles
canals
The state looks out for all but per cent
OF this network, which is therefore pracu-
cally free from tolls. This system Of inland
navigation has cost about $500 600 for con-
struction and purchase and SIS, 900, coo for
concessions. The annual cost of mainte-
nance is about $1,000. 600, or 1915 a mile.
which covers all expenditures whatsoever.
The number Of vessels employed on the
waterway is between 1900 and 10000:
about % per cent have capacity of 300 tons
or more, while more than half have ca
pacity exceeding 100 tons. Moreover, about
2OOo foreign boats use the French canals
each year.
The motive power is now mainly furnished
by drsnRht animals, although few steam
tugs are used on the Seine, the Disc and
some other rivers, and steam cargo-boats
are occasionally met. Gable towing aud
tow-focomatiyes are also used in a few
places. The average cost of moving a ton
OF freight one mile is stated to be O64 on
rivers and % per cent less on canals.

THE "STEERING" COMMITTEE.

Certain Republican Senators whose seats
are likely 10 be filed after the 4th Of
March by Democrats are reported to have
come to the conclusion that the steering
committee cannot save them. Senator Eel
ton is one of the Senators who does not see
how steering committee can overcome an
adverse majority In a Legislature. Califor-
MIA has a citizen who is more sanguine in
this respect than Mr.. FELTON,. but the rumor
runs that even he Is becoming convinced
that a stone wall is harder than the hardest
face. If the awakening to the misfortune
of a Democratic successor to Mr.. FELTON,
had come little sooner 1t might have been
averted. If the people had been allowed to
name their choice without the active agency
OF aspirants a Republican would succeed

The root OF the marshmallow has found n

that by adding Ter cent OF powdered
