what Chinose Immicration Means.

Even an eastern preacher can grasp
the idea that in business one merchant
or manufacturer can only hold his own
against another by practicing like econ
omies and keeping his wages fund down
to the lowest point which his workmen
will tolerate. 1t may be beyond the pow
ers of the preacher to grasp the equally
undeniable fact that wages are regulated
by the competition of workmen for en-
ployment. Let in the Chinese In sufi-
Gent numbers, and they will, by the OPP
Grafton Of law that is as inperious as
that Of gravitation, regulate wages in
the United States. That means simply
that white men in order to competewith
coolies would be forced to become coolies.
Does ny American who is not more
concerned about keeping 400 mission
aries in the Chinese empire, with its
population of 10000, 900, than for the
future Of this republic and Christian
civilization, think it desirable to well
come without restriction the Chinese
immigrant who brings with him the mi
crobes Of such industrial and social po-
tentialities?-San Francisco Argonaut.

A Chat About Dwarfs.

Long agoit used to be fashion in the
east and in many European countries to
keep as attendants in courts and in the
houses of the great those curious little peo-
pie known as dwarfs. The smaller they
were the more highly they were priced,
and although they frequently acted as
pages and ushers the poor little men were
mostly treated as playthings like my lady's
monkey or parrot.
The Turks were very fond Of having
dwarfs about them, and If they were deaf
and dumb, too, very high prices were paid
for them. There was a Turkish grandee
who possessed one named Aboo Zadek, and
he delighted in startling his guests by the
aid of this dwarf. Aboo was so small that
he could be concealed in variety Of un-
likely places. Sometimes he was hidden in
a box of sweetmeats, the guests would be
politely invited to help themselves, and the
moment they opened the lid Aboo flew out
at them like O veritable Jack-in-the-box.
While the terrified guests cried loudly,
"Wallah, wallahp' Aboo's master roared
with delight.
One Of the Roman emperors when he was
present at the combats Of the gladiators al
ways had dwarf dressed in scarlet sitting
at his feet, with whom he used to talk. He
also took the idea into his head of training
band Of these little creatures and max
ing them fight before him like the real
gladiators.
Mark Antony had dwarf not 2 feet
high whom he dlSisyphus. He was a
clever and lively little man and acted as a
sort Of jester.
In Russia dwarfs were used by the no
bles as pages, one of their duties being to
comb the dogs hair. A very small dwarf
would not be much bigger than very large
dog.
Peter the Great had a mite of q creature
whom he called his doll and who was very
proud Of the title. She lived to be 100.

HAPPY IN EXILE.

AS the hippopotamus eats only vegetable
matter, one feels alrsost astonished at the
size and strength q the huge teeth, but
such is the luxuriance of tropical vegeta-
ton that unless furnished with such teeth
as these he could never drag out the roots
and great stems Of aquatic plants upon
which he delights to feed.
This animal is sometimes in the habit Of
leaving the water ut night and with his
companions invading the ricefelds Of the
poor natives, which they ruin by devouring
and trampling.
AS the flesh of this unwieldy creature
forms an excellent food, his capture be-
comes q matter of interest. He is taken In
various ways. A pitfall is one favorite
method with the natives, death by poisoned
arrows is another, while European sports
men attack him with the rifle. His great
canine teeth are very valuable as ivory.
Strange to say, this huge animal is lively
and playful in it's native waters and is in
offensive also, although it becomes danger
GUS If it be interfered with, especially If it
is pursued in boats.
The first hippopotamus brought to Eu-
rope was young one captured in the Nile.
It was exhibited as an object of greatest
curiosity in London in 1850.

Children Capped Their Hands.

This is told by Vermont paper as q
"rather amusing incident" which took
place in q st. Johnsbury school:
cat about II o'clock the children all
began, apparently without signal from
any one, to clap their hands and contin-
ued this demonstration for several mo-
ments. Upon the teachers asking for
an explanation Of their strange conduct,
she was told that they did it because
Almy was hanged. The teacher then
gave them little talk Oh the awful
crime for which Amy had made atone
ment and drew the lesson from the story
that is so obvious to all"
It is Incredible, but true that this il
l1stration Of the low average of our civ
ilization should be set down in cold print
as ''rather amusing" It is sufficiently
terrible that children should be permit
ted by their parents to know all the hor-
rors of an execution, but the teacher
"gave a little talk on the crime" Why
not something to divert those morbid lit
tic minds from the contemplation of
crime? Better wholesome fairy story
or recess for q game Of tag. Instead
the greed of personal notoriety was fed,
and the training in vice went on 10y the
appearance Of the incident in print next
day.
The wretched little prigs who clapped
their hands because sin had met with
punishment will grow up into tho sort
Of men and women capable Of asking to
have the United States troops called out
to keep the fair gates closed Oh Sun
day. Truly, the spirit that burned Ser
vetus is hard to kill, and the crude prim-
tive instinct Of slaughter dies hard in
the children Of Adam, who are not
taught and taught and taught again
that nothing light puts oat darkness,
and nothing butpractice Of the one new
commandment" will ever mako the
world begin to keep those 10 old ones Of
Moses.-Boston Transcript.

She MAY Ea Running Yet.

Manifestations Of fear are various, and
there is evidently one woman in New
York who believes that she who runs
away may live to see another runaway.
A runaway team came tearing down
Broadway at terrific rate the other
day. AT Thirty-third street the horses
decided to turn toward Fifth avenue. and
as the only thing which could have
stopped then--the big apartment house
at that corner-did not get in their way,
around the corner they went like flash,
and then they ''streaked it" for the East
river.
In the crowd thereabout was q woman
who puts not her trust in runaway
horses. When she saw the plunging,
galloping team turn to the east she
turned to the west. Gathering her skirts
in her hands she made across Sixth av-
enue at a fairly good trot.
Reaching the pavement she looked over
her shoulder, and seeing that the horses
were undoubtedly going in the opposite
direction she increased her speed to q
sharp cantor.
Another backward glance soon showed
her own and the exertions of the horses
weye uniting safe distance between her

AN INTERESTING ANIMAL.
The Hippopotamus In Captivity and In Its
Native Haunts.

The Hippopotamus In Captivity and In Its
Native Haunts.
One would hardly expect that SO huge an
animal as the hippopotamus, accustomed
20 an abundance Of space, water and food,
could be made so contented as the one here
illustrated appears. Yet thus these great
and ungainly creatures may be found in 20
illogical gardens in different parts of the
world, where they may be seen almost any
day enjoying a siesta, with perhaps little
feathered visitants around fearlessly pick
ing up the grain that may have fallen from
the huge jaws of the hippopotamus.
Africa is the only quarter Of the globe in
which the hippopotamus is found. He Ia
one of the largest Of existing quadrupeds,
his bulk being little inferior to that of the
elephant, although he does not stand nearly
so high, the legs being so short that the
body nearly touches the ground.

WITH PEN AND INK.
BY \. II. W.

The question OF property in ideas is a
delicate one. and yet we all feel that
there should be some recognition Of own
ership attaching TO these airy belongings.
One is constantly coming upon familiar
thoughts re-clad, sometimes only little
more fashionably and not intrinsically
better, but again poetical thought
comes to it's own in finding new express
sion, then we are glad Cinderella marres
the Prince and need never more wear
rags. 1t is surprising to note the remind
ers, in a single weeks desultory reading,
OF the reading Of other weeks and years.
In some beautiful lines in the July At
lantic, part OF an article by Edith M.
Thomas, called, "In the Heart of sum-
mer", we find these lines:
"The tanager alights and dips his wing,
Once, twice, and thrice, and then, with
sudden spring,
He shakes the moisture from his scarlet
plumes,
And carries fire into the willow glooms."
Although forty years before Thoreau
said, in letter which Emerson quotes
''The tanager flies through the green TO-
liage as il he would ignite the leaves,
We are contention Miss. Thomas to take
the smile since she makes such good use
OF it. Lowell's test is just one:
Though old the thought and oft exprest,
IT'S his at last who says it best."-
Which saying, by the way, is Lowell's
only by virtue Of this same title; for, in
Hudibras we find it in the rough.
In an article on Thomas Hardy, in the
July Centuryys,the writer quotes "that
strangely mockfng stanza,n which stands
as motto to Hardy's "Return of the Ma
tive -
''To Lady Sorrow
bade good morrow,
And thought toleave her PARKWAY behind
But cheerly, CHEEKY,
She loves me dearly,
She is SO constant to me and SO kind
would deceive her,
And SO leHHe her;
But, ali she is so constant and SO kind !
recalls its, exact counterpart in Keats
Endymion
"Come then, Sorrow,
Sweetest Sorrowl [breast :
Like an own babe nurse thee on my
I thought to leave thee,
And deceive thee,
But now Of all the world love thee best"
