ways, and looked like triple bake ovens.
But down Cha-pu way many Of the
graves We're perfect little houses of
brick, With tile roofs, and even with
roofs whose corners We're bent up in
grand style. There are graveyards
in China, family or village graveyards,
that look like mere disturbances of the
earth, where acres have been turned
up into mounds or covered with brick
ovens, and there are graveyards that
are solemnly planted with rows Of trees,
But, as rule, the farmers bury their
dead in their rice or cotton fields or
among their mulberry trees, and the
poor buy or lease a resting-place for
their departed upon the acres of some

It be true or not, but l was told that
the graves are kept or let alone, until
change Of dynasty occurs, when they
are razed, and China begins over again
to preempt great fraction OF her sur

q change of dynasty, because a vast
portion OF the soil Is lost to the farmers,
who otherwise cultivate almost every

stages Of rack and ruin and disorder.
AT one time you see scores of tombs
whose ends have been worn down by
the elements or have fallen out SO as
to show the coffin ends or an outbreak
Of skulls and bones. There is nothing
that is possible that you do not see,
even to disclosures of great earthen
jars full of bones, where the original
graves and collins have worn away.
There the bones have been reinterred
In pots, and these in turn have been
exposed by the careless hand of time.
You see bare collins set out in the rice
fields because the mourners were too
poor to brick them over, and you see

splendid triple arch all beautifully
carved. Then follows the stately APP

dered by trees, and set with lions and
warriors, horses and sages, all hewn
out of stone. Finally the tomb itself,
on a hillside if possible, stares down the
avenue at all these costly ornaments.

Up Salt River.
I from the Philadelphia Times

Bound for Salt River is q phrase
heard every day. Aspirants for politi
cal honors seldom run very long with
out knowing how It feels to be saluted
with the words. Everybody knows
what 1t means. Not so many, however,
are 50 well informed as to when and
where the expression originated
. Away back in the early forties an old
office fiend who lived in Pike county.
Missouri, about the mouth of Salt Riv-
er, ran for the legislature and was de-
feated. He moved into the next cour-
ty further up the river, where he again
tried to persuade the people to elect
him to the Legislature. Again he was
defeated Nothing daunted. he moved
further up the river and once more an
nounced himself as candidate for the
Legislature. Once more his constituents
started him on his voyage further Up
the river In search of political eleva-
ton. Many years afterward, when peo-
pie made inquiries about the old office
seeker the answer would invariably be:

China a vast Graveyard.

The face of all nature is pimpled
with graves. No farm is so small that
it cannot afford at least one; no hill Is
so high q speak Of the Garden pro-
vinces of China that it is not dotted
with them to the top. No city lacks
them within and without it's walls;
only the compactest parts of the com
pactest cities are without them. They
vary in shape and form as everything
varies in China. The saying is that
Sin ten miles everything is different"
and it certainly Is so with the graves.
Near Shanghai this eruption on the
face of nature took the form of shape

long by three feet wide and three or
four feet high. There the collins had
been put on the ground and covered

LAST OF TIRE BUFF.4LOEy,
Preparations Making to Capture the Only
Remaining Wild Herd.

HemafnlnS WIG Herd.
from the st. Louis Globe-D Democrat
DR.. J. B. Taylor, the wealthy stock
man OF Tom Green county, has been in
San Antonio during the past few
days making the final Preparations for
the rounding up of the herd of wild buff
fa1o which have again found their way
into Texas from the mountains of the
state of Chihuahua, Mexico. Since his
arrival here DR.. Taylor received a tele-
gram from a stockman of Pecos county
stating that the herd had just been seen
in the lower part of that county, and
that they are making their way up the
valley of the Peces river. This is en-
couraging news to those who are inter-
ested in the capturing of the animals
and placing them in captivity.
This herd of buffalo was first discov-
cred about five years ago by the Hon
George Fulton, the wealthy land owner
of southwest Texas. Mr.. Fulton is a
great hunter, and with a party of
friends was spending a few weeks in
the mountains of Buchel county hunt
ing deer, bear and other large game
which abound in that section. One
morning he set off from his camp alone,
and had Travelled over the mountains
for three or four hours, when he came
to a small valley. He was thunder
struck to see feeding in the valley a
herd of buffalo. He was within a few
hundred yards of them, and was ena-
bled to count them accurately. There
were eighteen old ones and two calves
Mr.. Fulton had killed many buffalo in
the good old days when the animals
roamed at will in large herds over the
prairies Of Texas. and he was so pleased

INCONSISTENT BUT HONEST.


When men come to judgment In this
world, and possibly In the next, they
usually do the best they can to show
their purity of motive and of act, and
give more or less impressive reasons
why they should not be punished. We
have read and heard many explana-
ttons, palliations and justlfcations of
offences against the laws of God or man
in such cases made and provided, but
we do not remember any more plausible
than that offered by an unfortunate
gentleman who was brought before the
City court yesterday charged with be-
ing drunk, and being found drunk. He
argued that the charge could not pos
sibly be correct because during a long
experience with such charges he had
never before pleaded not guilty. This
time, however, he felt obliged to make
a plea of not guilty. The force of his
reasoning was great. IT is evident that
a man who has had long and abso-
lutely consistent record of pleading
guilty win not want to mar that record
unless he feels conscientiously bound
to. He takes a certain pride in it,
just as an old Democrat takes certain
pride in having been a Democrat ever
since he began to vote. There is, too,
somewhat of melancholy in a plea of
not guilty when all the other pleas have
been guilty. A man who feels obliged
to make it and thus go back on himself
can well claim the kind consideration
Of the court.

in several years, and he expects the ag-

notable. More people are fishing this
year than in any previous year; many
lakes have been opened after close
time of,several seasons, and good CATCH
es seem to be the rule. The outlook is
that big game will be very plentiful
in the fall, much more so than for
several seasons past. Every precaution
is being taken to keep up the supply
of fish, too. Especial attention will be
given to the hatcheries this year, and
about 100000 fish will be distributed

They Serve to Separate the Glasses of the
Tartar City.
The outer wall is n bout twenty-seven
miles in circumference. 1t was built
centuries ago of mud and bricks. The
Inner and outer face are of the latter;
each brick is as big as family Bible,
and the interstices are filed up with
mud and stones. The whole has long
settled into a solid cement. Save for
some damage done in one or two quar-
tiers by recent foods, this great wall is
still intact. The gates number thir-
teen. They are insignificant, though
finely arched; are not much wider than
the streets, and are only about twenty
feet high. At night they are closed
with great doors sheathcd with iron.
The whole city, says Fortnightly
Review. forms two rough parallelo-
grams, one being the Tartar city and
the other the Chinese. There is an
other wall separating the two sections.
The first is the Manchu quarter par
excellence: the second is given over to
commerce. Inside the walls OF the
Tartar city-they are sixty feet thick
nt the base-are the government build
'ngs. the foreign legations. and the
residences of the wealthy Tartars,
which run round another high gray
bri~.led wall. six miles roughly in
circumference. This wall incloSes the
temples, pleasure grounds, and outer
palaces Of the sacred city, consecrated
TO the uses of the ''Son of Heaven"
Inside this block, again. is the Purple
Forbidden city. the actual residence Of
the emperor and his court.
