How Scissors Arc Made.

Though no complexities are involved
III the making Of scissors, yet the pro-
cess is very interesting. They are
forged from good bar steel heated to
redness, each blade being cut of with
sufficient metal to form the shank, or
that destined to become the cutting
part and bow, or that which later on il
fashioned into the holding portion.
For the bow small hole is punched,
and this is attcrward expanded 10
the proper size by hammering it
on a conical anvil, after which both
shanks and bow are filed into a
more perfect shape and the hole bored
in the middle for the rivct. The blades
are next ground and the handles filed
smooth and FURNISHED with oil and en-
cry, after which the pairs are fitted to-
gether and tested as to their easy
working. They are not finished, how
ever. They have to undergo harden
ing and tempering and be again adj
justed, after which they are finally put
together and polished for the third
time. In comparing the edges of knives
and scissors it will be noticed, of course,
that the latter are not in any way so
sharply ground as the former, and that
in cutting scissors crush and bruise
more than knives

A RED-HAIRED CHINAMAN.
Being Of-CoIored He is Abhorred
His Brethren.


Chinatown boasts of a great rarity in
full blooded Chinese who is probably
the only ed-headcd one on the face Of
the earth. And what is more, the
Chinese has light complexion and blue
eyes. and he is cross-eyed.
Mish Go, as is the freaks name, was
born in China, of Chinese parents,
about thirty years ago, and came TO
san Francisco about year ago. He Is
summed and disliked by the great ma
oritv of his countrymCn.
''Sheep- Eye" is one of the nick
names applied to him, because, from a
Chinese standpoint, his eyes resemble
those of sheep more than a human
being. Mish Go lives in one of the den9
of Spofford Alley and is never seen in
close association with other deniZcns of
Chinatown, excepting when he goes to
certain stores to dispose of cheap trim
kets, by which means he acquires liv
ing.
The reason of the Chinese being held
in such disfavOr was explained by Wong
Noh, a fortune teller, who daily ocCu-
pies portion of the sidewalk on Wash
IngtOn Street above Dupont.
VERY many years ago, he said,
there was another red-headed China
man in China He lived there so long
ago that no one now living had ever
seen him, Chew Fut was his name and
he was tall and of a fair complexion,
from some cause not pleasing in the
eyes of the numerous gods. Chew Fut
was known all over North Chipa where
he lived and grew to manhood
cone day il was disclosed 10 a few of
the faithful that this particular Chinese
with the red hair must die. But it was
not explained by the Diety why. 1t is
not known to this day why the order
was disobeyed, for no steps were taken
to end the life of Chew Fut, and So a
fearful vengeance was WreakCd on the
people. a terrible earthquake occurred
and the waters of the sea overtiowcd
the land, engulfed thousands of inhab-
itants, who were carried out to sea by
the receding waters and drowned.
The red-haired Chinese was lost at
the same time and, 1t is believed, was
transported direct to the internal re-
gions where he must always suffer fear
full tortures. ''-Sun Francisco Examiner.

PANIC ON A STEAMER.
Excursion Boat with 100 Passengers on
q Rocks.

CLEVELAND, O., July 1O.-A special
from Buffalo SAYS: The excursion
steamer Eldorado ran aground on
Horseshoe reef shortly after midnight,
and for while il looked as
though the accident, which was in
itself light, would prove disastrous.
There were about 100 passengers on
board at the time, among them many
women, and only the tuolness of the
boats officers prevented a serious panic.
The boat runs between this city
and Eldorado and Grand Island,
down the river The night was
perfect and greater crowd
than usual remained until the
last boat. A portion of the people we're
landed at the foot of Ferry Street and
the boat started for the foot of Main
Street. TO get there it had to cut across
the end Of Lake Erie. In doing so the
wheelman, misunderstanding the cap
tain's orders, steered 10 the wrong
side Of a buoy and ran on the
shelving reef. The boat struck
hard and the passengers were thrown
into a state of wild excitement. Women
and children screamed and a rush WAS
made for the side of the boat. Signals
of distress were sounded and for halt
an hour the greatest turmoil existed.
Finally the tug Cherry came out fol
lowed by the lltpsaying crew, who

Sensational Suicide of Rich Polish Girl In

BRUSSELS, July Some excitement
was caused here by a report that
q Young Polish lady residing in Brus-
sells had committed suicide and had
been buried secretly after an unfortu
nate love affairs with an eXiled French
prince Mile. Wanda De kaszyc, q

Prince Victor Napoleon who lives
close by, frequently passed the
house and Mile. Wanda fell
deeply in love with him and
wrote him several letters. AS the
Prince did not answer her, she stole a
revolver and shot herself through the
heart According to one version the
deceased left some letters of very
compromising nature to the Prince, but
NJ. Metchkovsky and the Prince both
deny this Indignantly.

An Empress Jewels.

The private jewels of the Empress Of
Austria are said to be worth between
10000 and 10000 gulden. Among
them is 4 magnificent necklace of pearls,
presented by the Emperor after the
birth of Crown Prince Rudolph. The
necklace is valued at 500, 600 gulden
According to a Vienna paper, the Jewels
of the Empress of Russia alone of the
crowned heads Of Europe can lie com
pared in value to those of the Empress
Elizabeth. From time to time She has
given jewels to her daughters and reIa-

private property. This Is not the case.

AGAINST THE ARMY BILL.
Herr Gr08ber Addresses the ReIChStag on
the Measure.

BERLIN, July Sat to-dav's session of
the Reichstag, Herr Groeber, Centrist,
who in the last Reichstag voted in op-
position to the army bill, spoke against
the measure in the name of the Center
party. The tentrists, he declared, were
firmly oppose d to the bill, and all the
newly elected representatives of the
party We're pie dyed against it. From a
military point of view the bill was
needless, and from an economical stand
point it was ruinOus. 1t would be bet
ter for the government to enter
into an organic federation with
Aust ria than to increase the army SUI
perfiuOusly. The present government
game to secure a mousetrap majority
was an undignitied ore. Doubtless if
the house knew how the government
intended to cover the extra cost in
volyed by the measure, it would not be
able 10 find majority.
Herr Boeckel, antiSemite, said that
the members of that party would
only vote for the bill on condition
that the costs be covered by
taxes enacted only from the rich
To secure anti-Semite support Chancel-
Tor Won Caprivi must declare that the
would not increase the

declared that the anti-Semites
would strive to abolish the pos
sibiIity of heaping mp enormous
fortunes like those possessed by the
Rothschiids and Blcirhrooders. He
added that tt" present bill must he the
absolute conclusion IF the army. If it
were not, emigration from Germany
would increase.
Chancellor Won Csprivi reiterated the
statement he made yesterday that at
present it was impossible to give
the details of the financial plan
to cover the increased expendi-
ture that would be incurred
through granting the governments
demands. He asked Herr Roeckel 10

promised 10 relieve the weak shoulders
of the burden of increased taxation.
