How the Chinese set a Bone.

In setting a fractured limb the Chinese
make 10 effort to bring the bones into ap.
position. The Chinese medicine man sim.
ply takes Il lOr of red clay and envelopes
the limb with it. Then he takes some
strips OF bamboo and indents them
into the clay. Bandages are wrapped
around those strips, and in the outer band
age lie places The head Of live chicken.
After he has secured this bandage he cuts
the head off the fowl, allowing the blood
10 flow and penetrate the fracture He
then takes the chickens head from be-
meath the bandaCe and covers the exterior
with thick coating Of glue. The reason
given for applying the chickens head is
that it nourshes the broken or fractured
limb and is heap good medicine Butte

Wages and BOARD in Several Cities.

There are over 400 pursuits for women
in this country. Looking 1T the average
weekly earnings, it is found that San
Francisco pays the highest. wages, but one
has also to take into consideration that the
expenses of living there are very high.
Again, comparing New York and Boston,
it l. found that girls in New York earn
more than ii Ose N or near Boston, but
that the charges for board and lodgings
are far bette in Boston. Take, for in
stance, the boarding house for working
girls, in charge OF Miss Sarah f. Gardner
There are accommodations there for
thirty -four, and the price, including a
dozen laundry pieces, varies from three to
four dollars per week, according to the
room. The location Is good: the rooms are
furnished with neat. substantial furniture,
while the liberal and well cooked food is
served in pretty tableware. In another
dining room meals are served to girls who
do not lodge H. the house for 500. This

MISCELLANEOUS.

q
British settlers in the Department
of Victoria, South Chile, have APP
piled to their Consulate for informa-
ton in regard to emigrating to Cali
fornias They alleged that life and
property were insecure in that par6
of the country, and that six natives
of Great Britain had been murdered
during the past year. Thefts of
farm tools and animals, they said,
were daily happening. They are
committed BY bands of Chieans who
served in Balmaceda's army, and
who since its disarmament have de-
pended on pllage for their means of
livelihood.
MaXimillano Ibanez, Chilean, is
writing articles in the Independence
Beige, Brussels, on the United States,
the South American republics and
Europe. He contends that while the
Monroe doctrine in no way justities
the United States in interfering with
South American affairs, yet the
American Government puts the Mon
roe doctrine in new shape in order to
bring South America under its
thumb. Ibanez admits that the
statesmen of the North American
Union are far too clever to think of
anneXing any South American terri
tory, as the incorporation of any
Latin republic would bring about a
war of races and would shatter the
Union itself. Blaine, however, sees
with equal clearness, says Ibanez,
that, with lis enormous industries
and commercial over-productiohs, the
! United Statesis threatened with i'm
mense dangers unless it finds fresh
outlet for its products. Therein, he
says, lies the secret of the policy of
encroachment toward South America.
Ibanez also contends that the
Washington Cabinet will never bring
the South American republics to its
reciprocity views by mere force of
persuasion, as the American Latin
nations would have TO pay the United
States 30 per cent more for produce
than they pay by purchasing the
same in Earope. He accuses Blaine
of attempting something stronee r
than persuasion to compel compli-
ance from South America insinuates
that the reciprocity treaty with Bra
I'll was wre,ted from Fonseca by ille-
climate means; that the United
States openly supported Balmaceda
against the national uprising in order
TO obtain rom Chile a commercial
treaty wholly in favor of the Nor tn
American Union; that the Republi,
can party will renew it with fresh
vigor if tn, Democrats do not Dust
it from poger; that it will likewise
attempt u coerce Argentine unless
the latter combines with Brazil and
Chile to r'sist the Yankees encroach,
ment.
Lastly, he quotes figures of the
English, French and German trade
with Souh America to show how
deeply thtse European countries are
intesested in the failure of the Amer.
lean polio, and concludes by appeal
ing To tie governments of France
and Germany to combine with Brazil
Chile ant Argentine To thwart tn,
designs d the government which
rules under the Stars and Stripes.

There is alarm at the Chinese En-
bassy in Washington over the pros
pect that the Geary restriction bill,
which has passed the House, will be
carried through the Senate. Should
it become law il is figured out that
national pride and honor would COM
pei the Chinese Minister to ask for
his passports, proceeding that would
be repeated by Minister DENLY in
China, thus severing all diplomatic
relations between the two countries.
This would have disastrous effect
upon international commerce, and as
the balance of trade is largely against
the United States China would be the
loser by the operation. Chinese
cupldity will not permit such a state
of things TO exist if it is possible TO
avoid it.
Chinese threats to drive Americans
out of China failed egregiously. Now
it is said another plan has been
adopted and it will not be surprising
to find a proposition for new treaty
coming from China, by which she
will undertake to keep all her labor
ers at home.
A memorial has been presented to
the Senate from ex-senator Blair,
asking for an investigation as to the
reason why China refused to receive
him as Minister. Blair says the
Chinese Minister expressed regret to
him for his rejection. He thinks the
investigation would disclose a detes-
table conspiracy; that his rejection
was secured through false represent
atoms from the Chinese Legation
during the absence of the Minister
and by other false and dishonorabIe
means. He says he is in possession
of facts proving the difficulty to be
rivalry of business interests, the
nature of which should be ascertain
ed by the government whose friendly
relations have been impaired, if no
endangered.
The Congregational ministers o
Boston and vicinity passed strong
resolutions against the passage of tint
