The Emperor of China is not con-
teht with the respect shown him by
his subjects, and recently issued the
following peculiar order: "After
bringing our sacrifice recently to the
highest being, we heard upon our re-
turn to the palace, near the gate lead
ing to the Imperial quarters, a rather
loud noise caused by talking. This
shows that the people have not the
proper regard for the majesty of the
laler, and also that the officers of the
bodyguard have failed to do their
duty properly. The officers who were
on post at the particular gate must be
punished, therefore, by the Ministry
of War. In the future, however, all
officers, high or low, must see that a
noise so improper shall not occur in
our presence.

a careful inspection he fixed upon
one and asked the shoopkeeper -

chaser, with seeming ecstasy, but at
the same moment he made a grab at
the till. which he thrust under his
coat and bolted out Of the shop
The Mortified proprietor rushed
after him into the street. where, how

Mr.. Mulock, a Liberal member Of
the Canadian House of Commons,
made sensation the other day by in
Producing billto cut down the salary
of the Governor General. He ex.
planned that when the salary of that
official was first arranged it was fixed
at $50, 900. That was at the confed-
GRAFTON. Since that time the ex-
penses Of the Office have been contin-
ually increasing, until now they were
out of all proportion to any services
that it could possibly do to the coun-
try. He said that since the confedera-
tion in 1867 the Office has cost the
country So, S5l, ,917, or about STA, O76
a year, which was some S65, 900 more
than it's maintenance had been rated
at. He thought that the luxury of
having Governor General came alto.
gether too high. He said that he
did not propose any change to go into
effect before the expiration of the term
of the present incumbent of the Office,
Lord Aberdeen.

Settled the Pass Fiend.

| called upon the general passen-
ger agent or one OF the big railroad
lines running into the city yesterday
and was ushered into his private ofiice.
He was engaged in conversation with
gentleman when 1 entered, and
after a few minutes Of abrupt Ques-
tionng took small book from his
desk and began writing. An express
sion OF intense delight crcpt over the
yiSitOr's face as his eye followed the
agents pen, and l Immediately sur
missed that he was about to receive a
pass BY this time two other per-
sons came in, presumably on the
same mission. They sat down in
the opposite side OF the Office, and
realizing the situation cast wistful
glances at the fortunate man. The
agent continued his writing and
asked the man where he wanted to
90.
"Make it New York City this
time" responded the man, who had
evidently dead-headed before.
A few finishing touches we're ap-
piled aud the pass was handed over
to him. He thanked the agent very
politely and assured him that he
would not bother him again. He
examined the ticket and started for
the door, when he noticed that 1t
was good for only one way.
"Why, l guess you have made a
mistake" he said. in a tone OF sur
prise, 'ths ticket will only take me
one way"
"Do YOU expect to return?" asked
the agent unconcernedly.
"Well, should say / do"
"All right, hand me your ticket"
The man gave the agent his ticket
and was astounded TO see him tear
IT up "Well If you're coming back
you can't get any ticket from me. l
thought 1 was going T. get rid ot you
for sure this time" Without further
ceremony the chronic pass seeker
took leave and the other two persons
having seen enough. followed in his

DR.. Salmon, Chief of the Bureau OF
Animal Industry in the Agricultural
Department, said recently that there
had not been any pleuro-pneumonia
among cattle in the United States for
more than two years, but that tuber-
culosis is TO be found everywhere more
or less. at is not confined to any
one Locality" said DIR. Salmon, "nor
is there an unusual prevalence of the
disease. It has existed from time i'm
memorial, but it can be lessened, and
can probably be eradicated by adopt
ing proper measures. 1t il a disease
of the lungs among cattle and con-
tagious, being communicated by germs.
1t is most prevalent in dairy catt o
which are raised and Kept under con-
ditions where contagion can be easily
communicated. The disease is more
apt to spread among cattle kept in
stables than among those in a pasture
or on a ranch"

FREAK OF AN OLD VOLCANO.

Suddenly Transformed into Destructive
Activity After Centurie. Of Quiet.
One OF the lesser mountains Of
Chile, whose summit Is nearly 1000
feet lower than that OF our Mount
Washington, has been the talk OF
that country for a year past, says the
New York sun. Without a note Of
warning it developed into very
lively Volcano and It's eruptions have
destroyed much property, including
the humble homes OF many farmers
living near its base. This sudden
Outburst was all the more surprising
because no one had ever suspected
that Mount Calbuco was capable OF
such behavior. Calbuco was re-
garded as a volcano that centuries
ago had lost every spark OF vitality.
On February "a. 1898, Dr. Hans Stef-
fen. while about twenty miles north
OF Puerto Montt little south OF III
degrees south latitude, observed
white clouds on the eastern slope of
Calbuco. He thought nothing Of IL
until the next day, when he saw con-
elusive proof that those clouds we're
a part Of phenomenx show ng beyond
doubt that the long lost activity
OF the volcano had been regained.
From that time until October %, the
date Of the latest advices received
from that isolated part OF the world,
Ca!bucU showed considerable and al
most incessant activity, with oc-
casional outUursts OF much fury. On
that day rain OF ashes fell upon
Osborne, sixty miles away, obscuring
the sun SO that at midday lamps were
burning in all the houses of the
tuwn. The detonations that marked
the more violent outbursts were
plainly heard. On the same day the
farmers on the south shore OF Lake
Llanuuihue, little north Of the
volcano, barely escaped with their
lives and saw all their property de-
stroyed. Their harvest was ruined,
their land made worthless bv the vol
canic sand that covered IL and their
cattle were killed. Even long before
October the region of which the little
mountain is the center had been rem
dered uninhabitable. For miles
around the forests had been destroyed
by showers OF hot ashes. One day
there was rain OF red-hot stones
about the size OF an egg that did con-
siderable damage. The rich
meadows in the river Valleys were
covered with sand and ashes Early
in the series OF eruptions the snow
on one side Of Calbuco was melted in
a few hours by the heated material
scattered over it, The result was a
flood in one of the rivers that de-
stroyed much property. At no time
have any fire or lava flows been OBJ.
served, but severe earthquakes which
frequently accompany volcanic out
breaks have not been lacking.

The little creature which possesses
the distinction OF having more legs
than any other animal is that viii h
belongs TO the family OF insects
known as millepeds, or thousand
footed. There are Sc eral different
species OF these, but thev all possess
the common characteristic OF having
segmented bodies, each segment OF
which is provided with its own pair
OF feet These are get so closely
along the body as 10 resemble hairs,
and when they move one after an
other with perfect regularity the ef-
feet Is precisely the same on a small
scale as that OF a field OF oats undu.
lating under the influence or the
wind.
Some species OF millepeds have as
many as $50 separate and distinct
legs They are all perfectly harm
less, unlike the centipeds. which fire.
quently have the power CT inficting
poisonous wounds.

Superior Men to search for the Treasure
Laden Hull.
1t has been over two years since
an attempt was made to ra.se the
hull or secure the car o Of the ILL.,
fated steamer Pewabic, which re-
poses on the bottom OF Lake Huron
in l2S feet OF water. Preparations
are now being made to raise the
abandoned wreck. Superior, Wis 4,
capital will be pvt into the new un-
dertaking, as II was in the last i'll
starred expedition in which Diver
Pelkey lost his life. The diver, who
will join the new expedition on
shares lives in Pennsylvania. So
confident is he that he can raise the
the Pewabic that he is willing to per-
form the work on much better terms
than any other man OF his profession.
He has perfected a new style OF div
ing suit and has experimental with
IT for some time He Is not in the
least concerned in regard TO the
depth of water in which the Pewa-
bic es, and says the stated depth
will not embarrass his working to
good advantage Two good sub
marine divers, felkey and McCarty,
have lost their lives In trying TO get
the treasure imprisoned in the sunk
en- hull.
The Pewabic was propeller Of
about ], 900 tons She was sunk in
Lake Huron OF Alpena outside
Thunder Bay in June, 1865. She
and the Steamer Meteor came in col
lision at night and the former was
sunk There we're 80 persons aboard
and the mum ber lost is variously es-
timated at from so TO 100. SO far
as the loss OF life is concerned the
sinking OF the fewabic was one OF
the greatest lake marine disasters on
record. The cargo OF the Pewabic
contained seventy five barrels OF sill
verware. 800 tons OF copper ore, IFS
tons OF pig iron, $50 rolls OF leather

a great number OF trunks, for which
there are big rewards offered, rang

An ENJOYABLE Fire,
