Japaneao I2n,,srants.

Since tho ,nilsado of Japan permitted
his subjects to cmigratc to other coun-
tries nearly one hundred thousand of
them have left their native land. There
arc about twenty thousand of them in
Hawaii and more of them arrive there
every month. There is a large number
of them in Australia. They arc to be
found in various countries of the Asiatic
continent, and some of them arc in Eu-
rope. There arc about two thousand
of them in California, and others are
constantly arriving there to work in
the vineyards. In the city of New York
there may be two hundred Japanese,
and there arc q few of them in many
other American cities. Wherever they
go they have the reputation Of being

Mr.. Crisp is Seriously Ill.

There is every reason to believe that
the truth is not known about Speaker
Crisp's condition. While his friends
are trying to reassure the public as to
his health, it is known that it has not
improved in the least within the last
forty-eight hours, and his immediate
family are greatly alarmed over his
condition. He is much more ill than
is generally admitted, and it is doubt
full if he will be able to take anv part
in the proceedings of the house for
weeks and perhaps months to come.
In the meantime Mr.. McN1illin has
been elected speaker protein, and he
will act in this capacity until Mr.. Crisp

A boy was heard telling his COM

says the Utica Observer. A lady hailed
},i.a us.d a-!.ca him if he knew of any
o..c vito wanted q cat. He didn't at

when she suggested that a quarter of u
dollar would be given him ii he woula

;,t;lrt-:d off down the street, and HAD
walked several blocks looking for
ba-n that offered Inducements for ats.
and f::ally 1ncu couple OF young ladies'.
Que OF them noticed the tabby's sleek
coat, and tlacT stopped the boy and
asked him whose it was. OF course it
was his, and in less than jiffy he
thought more of that little animal than
he ever did before of Il cat in his life.
Would he sell it? Well, he didn't care
to, because he wanted to carry it'l,omc
to his little sister, but he thou;-ht>possi-
bly, he could get another one, though
probably he could never ind such q nice
cat as that. Would he take half dol
lar for it and carry it home for her?
Yes, he would, cause he wanted the
money to get him some new shoes. So
he got the half-dollar, and the young
lady got the cat safely delivered at her
llomc. 1t is sursaised that tic boy had
been reading the record of some Of the
county officers as brought out before
the Investigating committee.

a VIVA Apple orehard.

The wilderness of Koolan, in tho
S :rdwich islands, contains Il forest of
native wild apple trees, countless in
number, stretching from the sea far
up tho mountain sides. The trees vary
from forty to fifty feet in height, and
in the harvest season, from July to
September, are loaded down with fruit,
some white, but mostly rcd. A person
standing in the midst of this orchard
can look around him for miles, up the
mountains and toward the road, and
the only thing in view will bc one vast
grove of apple trees literally red with
ripe a;ld ripening fruit. the branches
of the trees bending to the ground
with the bounteous harvest. The crop
of this extensive apple orchard which
nature planted in the solitary waste
would fill q feet of one hundred steam
-ers. Tho orchard stretches over a
country from Eve to ten miles wide by
twenty miles long. aud many of the
larger trees bear at least fifty barrels
apiece.

In France cookery took new de-

his younger days ut lcast prodigious
appetite. 81 have oftcn," writes Nine.
dc Baviere, "seen the king eat four
plates of different soups, whole
pheasant, partridge, a large plate of
salad, two good slices of ham, a plate
of pastry, and then lie helped more than
once to fruits and swectncats." The
expenses of the royal kitchen. in those
days were almost fabulous, and the
courticrs seem to have We'd with the
king in the extravaganza of their bou-
qucts, says q writer in Blaclkwood's
Magazine.
Some OF the most famous sauces, such
as Bechamcl and s'oubise, date from
this reign; and one of Nine. de Savignc's
most eloquent letters describes how
Natcl, the prince of Condos cook, killed

In the next reign came the revolution,
and there seemed some danger of the
science of cookery being swept away
with the mobiles and chefs Of the old
regime; but it survived the storm, and
gained fresh life and vitality under the
republic and the empire. Napoleon
himself was no great cpicure, eating
hurricdly at all times, and Whenever
his appetite prompted him; but his
chancellor, Calnbaceres, kept q splendid
