nothing will be done. Unless the peo-

adjust things to suit themselves, GROVER
will not be in it long. He has shown
that the congress is not with him-un-
less with a string tied to it, and the
country does lot applaud a trial trip of

Peculiarities of the Siamese.
[Demorest's Family Magazine.]

tDcIIOIGSI IdLIIiiS AItSdLlI1S.l
The wealthy Siamese, including the
king, practically turn night into day. All
important political meetings are held in
the night, and 4 o'clock in the morning
is the hour at which Bangkok fashion,
ables retire until o'clock the succeeding
afternoon. There is a semi-EurOpean
theater in Bangkok, which was erected
by one of the present kings predecessors,
and there are plenty Of outdoor theatrical
performances by natives, the Siamese be-
ing a pleasure-loving people and fond Of
all sorts of entertainments.
The worst thing that can happen to a
man in Siam is to get into debt, from
which there is never any escape, owing
to the eXOrbitant interest charged. Once
in debt, there is no appeal; the debtor
being stripped Of his clothes and COM
PEELED to work in letters, generally for
the rest Of his life, to pay the interest.
Drunkards are not permitted to give
evidence in the law courts Of Siam.
The Buddhist priests, clad in yellow
robes, are to be seen everywhere in
Bangkok and it is quite common for
young men to enter the priesthood, which
affords them an easy and luxurious eX-
%istence, owing to the liberaIity of the
populace towards anyone sanctfied to
the service Of Buddha.

A CORRECTION.
Nothing

THE GLOBE, in talking about the sad
son at Trinity college, has been, it seems,
misunderstood.
1t was not our intention TO intimate in
any way that the sanitary condition of
Trinity is not t,class-for we know
that it is tirst-class.
1t was the intention of THE GLOBE to
merely express its sympathy to the
afflicted family. We said that young
AVERY had but recently arrived from his
home, Morganton, TO enter the fall term
of school. This was the rumor, and,
knowing that the family once lived at
that place, we supposed that the rumor
was right. 1t seems that the young man
had been here during the summer, and
DR.. CROwELL explains his death in an
other column.
We take it that Trinity college, in the
matter of health, is in as good shape as
any institution of learning in America.
Durham, as all know who read the
figures, is a remarkably healthy place
the death rate being surprisingly low.
Trinity college is we'll situated, and its
sewerage system is positively frst-class.
THE GLOBE regrets that any paper has
intimated that the sanitary conditions
were not perfect, and respectfully asks
all papers which have made such state
ments 10 correct them.

as fast as possible shows that the treasury
intends to be prepared to use its gold re-
serve to whatever extent may be neces-
sary to meet the obligations of the gov
eminent. Nearly all of this reserve is in
the form of bullion, and if the United
States notes were not to be deprived of
their usual support, and the reserve were
t 0 be maintained, this specie would not
be coined. In the form of bars the gold
is easier to handle and store than it will
be when minted, and the loss from abra-
sion is reduced to a minimum.
The coinage of this reserve is evidence
that the secretary expects that it will be
needed to pay the demands upon the
government and implies that it will be
the policy of the treasury to use it for
this purpose. There is no legal obstacle
to this being done and if the purchase of
silver is discontinued it is not apparent
that any harm could result from using
the reserve in this way. At any rate the
government could not, without damage
to its credit, allow its obligations to go
unpaid while holding this gold. There
is a heavy deficit in prospect and SECRE-
TARY CARLISLE is taking timely precau-
ton. Congress ought to find a way to
obviate the necessity of making any seri-
Gus inroad upon the gold reserve.

Mexican Pearl Fish nries.

The Mexican Government has leased
to the Compania Perlifera me la Baja
California for sixteen years the pearl fisn-
cries comprised between the mouth of
the Colorado River and Cape San Lucas,
on the east coast of Lower California,
and between the port of Mazatiau and
Barra de Suchiate, on the Pacific Coast
of the mainland, with the exception of
the Ensenada de Chamela fisheries. The
consideration is the payment by the com
pany of $40 per ton of pearl oysters Oh.
tanned in the first three years, and Sl2
per ton during the remaining thirteen
years of the lease.
The fisheries are to be divided into
two portions, to be worked alternately
every two years, thus preventing the ex-
haustion of the beds. The company
further binds itself to avoid the use of
destructive methods of fishing, to pro-
tect and extend the oyster beds, and to
introduce improved breeds, such as the
Tahiti pearl oyster or some other su-
perior variety. y.-San Francisco Chroni-

How to Reach Old Age.

One of the figures in the British House
of Commons is Isaac Holden, who is
three years older than Mr.. Gladstone.
He is hale and strong and in full posses
sion of his mental faculties. The Brad
ford Observer has lately published an
interview In which Mr.. Holden explains
the way to live long. The normal dura-
ton of life, it would seem, is 120 years,
being five times the period that it takes
for the bones to harden. If people con
sumo much lime their arteries become
ossifed and the capillary vessels blocked
up. II their brains are cut into when
they are reaching middle life it is like
cutting into ssndbag. To arrive at a
normal old age man must take good
deal of walking exercise and see that the
air is frequently changed In the rooms in
which he lives. Starch diet produces
acidity in the blood and has to he con-
verted into sugar of fruit before it is
assimilable. A meat diet is also unde-
sirable.
The meals must be regularly taken,
and eating and drinking must not go to
ge.her. Mr.. Holden'a daily bill of fare
is as follows: For breakfast aud supper
he takes one baked apple, one banana,
one orange, twenty grapes and.a biscuit
made from banana -four with butter
His midday meal consists of three ounces
of beef or mutton, reduced to powder in
mortar, and then passed through a
colander, with a half cupful of soup oc-
casionally poured over it, Theory is all
very we'll, but Mr.. Holden has proved
his case by his health and vigor at a
period when most men are, to say the
least, verging on old age.

Peas and Beaaa

Although peas were known and used
o. food many centuries before the birth
of Christ, it is singular that green peas
came into use in Western Europe only
200 years ago. Nine. de Maintenon
wrote in 1896: GAN the talk now is
about the new dish--green peas. The
impatience for them, the pleasure Of
eating them, the triumph Of finding
them so enjoyable, and the joy OF antici-
pating the repetition of the treat are
animating points of conversation at our
court. And many ladies after going
home from q royal feast must have o
dish ready to eat at home before lying
down."
Beans were In use 1000 years befor.
Christ, but in the Egyptian temples they
we're under ban. Priests must not eat
them or look at the growing plants.
They were served at funeral feasts only
on the dishes placed before the seats OF
the lately deceased. Thus prejudice
was created which prevented much use
of one of the cheapest and best items of
food even in Europe until late day.
We have gained nearly as much by the
shaking off of such old fetters as BY
new discoveries.-Nes York Tribune.

WISE WORDS.

Ornamental characters are full of weak

A man with bad liver very often has
q good heart.
If the tongue could kill not many

The man who picks his own cross

Every man in brass band thinks his

There is no greater misfortune in life
than to have bad mother.
The easist thing for q loafer to do is

The trouble with people who can talk
is that they are apt to say too much.
The diamond has the most sparkle.

When people are hired to be good

The shadow of misfortune will gen.

The world is full of lion fighters, but
it is hard to find people who won't run

Every new acquaintance we make ha.
the power to tell us something we didn't
know about ourselves.
Do good as often as you have oppor-
tunity, and it will not be your fault if
you are not kept busy.

they ask for it as unconcernedly as though
