Meetings on alternate Wednesdays.
The Press still insists that the reply of
the Ladies Choral Union to the committee
which invited them to sing at the meeting of
the editors at the church on Wednesday
evening of last week was mo banquet
no singing" We repeat with emphasis that
the statement is wholly untrue and malic-
iously false and that no such reply was
ever sent to the committee. Mr.. A. K.
Ferry, the manager of the Union, informed
the committee that il was impossible to get
the ladies to sing ON account of previous en-
gagements and the absence of one at least
of the number from the city. Moreover
after the item appeared in the Press last
week, Mr.. Ferry called at THE TIMES
Office and asked to have the statement
denied both in print and at the editors
meeting. Tn editor of the Press in his
petty meanness is willing not only to at
tempt to injure the good reputation of the
Union at home but published the item at
time to throw discredit all over the state
upon the public spirit Of the ladies of Owos-
so. The publication Of the item could do
no one any good and we do not think any
paper in the city but the Press would slur
its own town in such manner. But then
we do not know as anything else could be
expected.

The Brazilian ant bear survives ths
rainy season in q peculiar way Of his
own. His fayorite hunting grounds,
the big ant hills OF the underbrush,
are soaking under twenty feet Of
water, and tree ants hug the hooks
Of their dens during the season Of
constant showers. In spite Of hia
big claws their enemy Is not pre-
pared to rip big trees In quest Of his
food, and his proficiency In climbing
cannot compare with that of the big
cats, but his talent for long fasts &
unrivaled even in this era Of Tanner
freaks. One drink per week win do
him for q period OF ten or twelve
weeks, during which he husbands
his vital resources on the principle Of
minimum expenditure.
With his bushy tail coiled about
his neck he dozes away the rainy
day under the roof Of e fallen tree
while his physical torpor is not apt
to be Offset by an excess Of mental
activity. Pet dealers often warn
their customers against the blundsr
OF installing that lethargy for
symptom Of disease, and an expert
enced menagerie keeper once told
me that he would not waste Z cent
on stimulating drugs till the patient
should seem to consider ten days too
long time between drinks. San

CHtNA's MANY DIALECTS.

Different Language.
i People Ia China distant from one
another only few miles often use
totally different dialect forms u
| some Of the larger cities, such a
Canton, with more than 1,000. 900 in
habitants, one often finds several
dialect forms ia use. The variations
in the Chinese tongue are 80 great
| indeed that it is not too much to say
that there are as many dialect forms
| in the Flowery Kingdom - days i
the year.
The most widely spread language
Is the Mandarin. It is used in one
form or another in fourteen or If
teen of the nineteen provinces COM
posing China. There are also north
ern and southern Mandarin tongues.
The best northern Mandarin dialect is
spoken in Peking, while the best
southern Mandarin Is spoken in Nan
kin. A third marked form Of the
Same tongue Is used in west China,
especially in Tsien- Kiang. People
who speak the various Mandarin
dialects however can understand one
another readily. II we estimate the
population Of China at 800, OO0, 900 Of
people at least SOC, 900, 900 use tho
Mandarin tongue All persons, from
whatever part Of China, who desire
to enter political or official life learn
this tongue.
The other Chinese languages are
spoken by comparatively small num-
bers Of people. About 20, 600. 900, Tor

There are not 30 many dialectic
forms Of the Hakka tongue as Of the

THE TRIAL OF DEBS.
Attorney AIfIchrias SAYS Argument Oi
the Defense Falls

CHICAGO. July 24=During the pro-
ceedings in the trial of President Debs
and his associates, for contempt today,
District Attorney Milchrist called the
attention of the court to the act of 1890
known AS the anti trust law He read
some of its provisions stating that if two
or more persons cOnspire to obstruct inter
state commerce they shall be deemed
guilty of an Offense against the govern
ment, and shall be proceeded against in
the United States circuit court.
The district attorney said that under
this law the argument of the defense
that the bill under which the Injunction
The bill was filed under the act Of 1890
There is no doubt, Mr. Milchrist said
that the government has such pecuniary
interest in interstate commerce that it
has a right to file such bill The gov
ernment maintains itself in part by the
revenue derived from the postal service.
The greater part of today's session was
taken up with the argument Of Attorney
Irwin for the defense. Mr.. Irwin was
frequently interrupted by Judge Woods
who questioned the attorney closely.
Judge Woods was particularly inquisi-
tive regarding the advisory character of
the A. r. L. officers duties
sIf the officers could not order a strike
but could advise the organizations mem
bers," asked the judge, s'why could not
the former advise the men to desist after
the strike was in fOrces3
Attornew Irwin replieds that the gcv1
ernment's complaint contained nothing
regarding advice. but simply charged
the defendants with ordering strikes.
"If the government meant advice in
stead of order said the attorney, cit
covers the case as stated by the prosecu-

He Claims the Stories About ArmOr
Plates Is a Money Making Scheme

WASHINGTON, July "a - Chairman
Frick, of the Carnegie Steel company,
was the witness before the naval commit
tee in the arnOr plate investigation to-
day.
The armor plate business was com
parativeIy unimportant branch of the
works and he had left the details entirely
to Superintendent Hunsicker, he said.
Mr.. Frick regarded the penalty levied by
the navy department as exOrbitant and
appealed to the president, as he was per
mitted to do under the law.
He did not regard the information to
the government as conspiracy on the part
Of former strikers for revenge but rather
as a money making scheme.
IF the government inspectors had
done their duty there would have been
no trouble" said he II knew they were
there to see that the work was properly
done and depended on them You gen
tlemen will see how that was when you
come to the works" Mr.. Frick could
not see how it benefited his men to
slight their work as it was of no financial
advantage to them.
