The collector of the port at San Fran

Mrs. All Fong, of Honolulu, desire to
visit the United States. The children,
by the way, are grown young women
But the collector is not sure whether or
not the Chinese exclusion laws bar
them out. 1t is this way: MIR. All Fong
is Chinaman; Mrs. All Fong is a Portu-
guese; they have lived in Hawaii ever
since they were married their children
were born there, and one of them is
shortly to be married to Commander
Whiting, Of the Alliance, United States

avarice, and the young Misses All Fong
wish 70 come to this country to spend
some Of their money and see the sights.
Does this country bar them out because
OF their fathers racer That is what the
collector az San Francisco must decide.

A Professors Serious Error.

When there is reasonable doubt as to
whether a disease is or is not of a contag-
ious character it is always better to give
the public the benefit of the doubt. This
is illustrated by the spread of smallpox
in New York There are eleven
cases of that disease in that city, whereas
ere might have been none but for
hard headed clinical professor, who over
ruled the well grounded doubts of younger
doctors and pronounced the disease
chicken pox.
If the matter were less serious the
learned professors position would be lu-
dicrous Two weeks ago a man was
taken ill on the street and went to the
dispensary attached to the Vanderbilt
Clinic for treatment. The young doctor
whom he saw diagnosed the case as
smallpox and ordered his isolation. But
before the order had been carried out the
learned professor, whose name, unfortu-
nately, has escaped the newspapers,
found the patient and examined him.
pooh! Nothing here but chicken pox,
said he, THAT young upstart knows
too much and too little; I'll teach him and
my class the difference between smallpox
and chicken poX." And he took the sick
man into the clinic and used him as an
object lesson before a large class of young
doctors. Making the sick man bare his
body the learned professor pointed out
the peculiarities of the marks of chicken
poX and told the students how the skin
would look if the patient really had
smallpox And the fledgling doctors
nodded and absorbed all the learned pro
fessor said, meanwhile absorbing germs
that they knew not of till later.
Ten days'or so after the learned profess
sor's demonstration two of his scholars
failed to show up. Meanwhile the bureau
of contagious diseases had got hold of the
professors object lesson and sent him to
The pest house. When the young doctors
were missing the city's physicians insti-
tuted a search for them, and found each
with what doctor would call "a splend-
idly marked case" of smallpox And a
number of people with whom the young
men had been in contact also developed
the disease.

Secretary Carlisle received the other
day from New York from an unknown
sender 81, 800 in currency, which the
sender said was the balance of 500 900
which he had paid into the treasury in
PREPARATION fora theft of $4,000 from the
government of which he had been guilty
during the war. If everybody who stole
money from the government during the
war were to follow this fellows example,

Cy Leland, the Kansas republican COM
mitJeeman, proved his case of criminal
libel against Secretary of State Osborn.
1t took the jury less than an hour to de
eide that the eminent populist state Off
cial had borne malicious false witness
against his neighbor. The penalty for
the crime is 81 900 fine or one years i'm
prisonment, or both. Although a convict,
there is no talk of Osborn resigning the
secretaryship on the other hand it is
possible that he may be canonized by his
party and voted a testimonial by the next
session Of the legislature.

At the worlds parliament of religions
at Chicago the other day an enthusiast
proposed the formation of a universal re-
hgious brotherhood, and presented to the
delegates for signatures a roll containing
the single statement; For the purpose
of uniting with all those who desire to
serve God and their fellow-men under the
inspiration of the life and teachings of
Jesus Christ, l hereby enroll myself
member of the brotherhood of Christian
Unity" The roll was numerously signed :;
but among all the signers there was not
one whose religious faith is not founded
upon the New Testament scriptures and
the divinity of Jesus 1t would seem,
therefore, that the time is not ripe for the
immediate establishment of a universal
religion.

Cardinal Gibbons has at last consented
to a public celebration in honor of the
twenty-ifth anniversary of his consecra-
ton as priest. He opposed the propo-
sition vigorously for some time. He de-
sired to escape notoriety, and even left
Baltimore for a time to keep from talking
about it. But his people insisted on do
ing him honor They pointed out that
if they permitted the anniversary to go
by without celebration it might appear
that they were indifferent. And, futher-
more, they reminded him that the pope
had already taken note of the anniversary
and sent letter of congratuation and
other tokens by messenger. This kind of
pleading prevailed with the cardinal. The
celebration will be held at Baltimore in
October and viii include BANQUET To
which viii be invited the bishops and
archbishops Of the United States. Presi-
dent Cleveland and his cabinet. Vice

Chewing Gum.

The origin of chewing gum may be
traced indirectly back to the time when
contenders in manly sports in the am
phitheaters kept their mouths from
parching by chewing the leaves Of
plants which were capable of produc-
ing an increased flow of saliva; but
the modern chewing gum, with all its
alleged benefits and its various favors,
is strictly product of the present ag.
gressive age.
The medicinal value of chewing gum
of any kind may well be expected to be
slight. Aside from its employment in
some cases as sialogogue, or saliva
producer, it is likely to become posi-
lively harmful if persistently used.
We may perhaps excuse its use by
public speakers and singers, and by all
whose throats are exposed to the irri-
tation of constant use, as by means of
it the throat may be kept moist and
free from irritation; but even then'it
is doubtful whether other methods
would not prove quite as efficacious
without being SO harmful to the di-
gestive system.
1t is easy to explain why the diges-
tive system is liable to suffer from the
persistent use of chewing-gum.
One of the chief functions of the
saliva is to stimulate by its presence
in the stomach an increased flow of
gastric juices But the increased flow
of saliva induced by constant chewing
is generally thrown into an empty
stomach. This explains the gnawing
that the persons unaccustomed to the
use of gum experience after chewing it
for while. There is no food for the
gastric juices to work upon, and an ar
tifcial appetite is set up.
This fact might be turned to account
in some cases of indigestion, if it were
not 1of the supplementary fact That the
saliva which comes from prolonged
stimulation is always inferior in quail
ty in direct proportion to its increased
amount And not only is this superb
cial saliva weakened in it's power of
stimulating the gastric juices, but an
other important function, that of
changing starches to sugar, is CORE
spondingly interfered with.
Then again, we must not forget the
frothy condition of saliva produced by
the chewing of gum, or fail to appre-
ciate the uncomfortable and even
harmful results of forcing such quan.
titles of air into the stomach. - Youths

Mountain Memories.

From my window, tantalizing,
With their half-veiled charms divine,
I can see the mountains rising
On the dim horizon line,
Glad in robes Of summer splendor,
Crowned with sunshine's living gold,
They awake heart memories tender
OF the treasured days of old.
For am no child Of bondage,
was born to love the sun,
Since that sweet unconscious fond age
When I watched the waters run,
Heard the bird notes in the wildwood,
Where the laughing cascades leap,
In the formulant days OF childhood,
Ere my heart had learned to weep!
Through each glen and glade rambled,
And beneath the shadowy peak,
With the pratling echoes gambolled
BY the blue bell bordered creek;
Bathed my brow in shining fountains
Mirroring the arching blue,
While the free winds of the mountains
Gently slipped the fragrant dew.
From my window all their beauties
Rise before me far away;
Sad it is that life's dull duties
Keep my bounding heart at bays
For the summer days are dreary
Cooped in suffocating halls,
And my spirit grows aweary
OF the cramp of city walls!

Was Accepted.

It is generally supposed that the
idea of the yorng girls proposing mar
riage in leap-year is pleasant little
fiction of the humorist, but there is
evidence that sometimes the fair sex
does avail itself of its quadrennial
privilege. An anecdote told IN Eng
land of member Of the House Of
Commons is case in point. Accord
ing to the raconteur who is response
BILE for the story, the Commoner had
been paying attention to a yonng lady
for long while, and had taken her to
attend the House until she was per-
fectly posted in its rules. On the last
day of the session, as they came out,
he bought her boquet, saying,
ssMay offer you my handful of
fowers?''
She promptly replied, Il
move to amend by emitting all after

He blushingly accepted the amend
ment, and they adopted it unanimous
ly.

Mosquito Nets in the Army.

tSpeaking of fmosquitos, said the man
on the veranda, ''there were issued to
some of the troops in certain parts of the
South in the course of the civil war in
this country, from 1861 to 1866, mos
quito nets, which might be called in
dividual nets, for they were one to q
person. These nets, when set in po-
sition, were about six feet long, three
feet high, and three feet wide. Tapes
ran along the top edge and extended
in loose ends at the four corners.
When the net was set up for use these
corner tapes were tied around four
sticks, little corner posts, driven into
the ground. 1t might to some seem
amusing, the idea of issuing mosquito
nets to troops engaged in actual SER
vice; they might think that men in
constant danger of being bitten by can
non balls and bullets would have lit
tie fear Of mosquitoes; but this would
be merely the superficial view of per-
sons not fully acquainted with the
mosquito"
