A Chinese newspaper thinks that the
easements which the Christians in China
built to their houses were in a great
measure responsible for the outrages in
that country recently. The natives of
China do not know much about base
ments. They seldom dig under their
floors except for the purpose of conceal
ing something. Their leaders told them
that the Christians Easements were for
the purpose of concealing treasures and
the bodies of murdered children. With
the double purpose in view of stealing
the treasures and avenging the alleged
murder Of the children, the natives at
tackled the houses and their occupants.
There is a Chinese favor about the ex-
PLANTATION.

Friends of Ambassador to France Eus-
tbs are quoted as saying he will send
his resignation to the President as soon
as the Waller case is disposed of. They
say the ambassador is weary Of a dip

at the time that the alleged Figaro in
terview caused such a stir. The criu-
cisms which were heaped upon him by
certain American papers at that time
were unjust, but they stung him, and he
resolved to retire to private life. Whether
or not there is good foundation for the
rumors can only be demonstrated by

The Charleston News and Courier, re-
ferring to Savannah's proposed exhibit at
the Atlanta exposition pays the city this
compliment: "Win the money be raised?
Have the people and authorities of Sa-
vannah ever failed to raise money for any
cause affecting the good of Savannah?
The only chart they have ever had to guide
their steps has been whatever was 'expe-
dent for the safety, benefit, convenience
and advantage of Savannah We wish
we could initiate their public spirit in
Charleston" Savannah means to have at
the exposition the very best and most at
tractive exhibit that she can possibly get.
The money for it will be raised without
trouble. and Savannah feels assured that
it will result in much benefit to her. And
Savannah hopes to see her great and good
friend Charleston at the exposition with
an exhibit second only to her own.

TOBACCO AND LUMBER.

Few travelers-not one in 1000
suspect there is anything behind the
legend which greets them an in ordi'
nary English railway carriage: "The
penalty for smokingi in carriage other
than that marked smoking is 40 shil'
lings." That it has anything to dc
with the depreciation of the company's
rolling stock never enters their heads.
A smoking carriage, however, only
lasts half as long as an ordinary vehic'
lie, and once we'll broken into its mis-.
sion, it is completely spoiled for all
other purposes. 1t can never be rid OF
its smell.
"Literally speaking" remarked a
we'll known car-builder, recently, "a
railway carriage smokes. The fumes
of the tobacco are absorbed into the
timbers, penetrate into the mortices,
and grow into kind of gas that eats
it's way into the structure. On the
Northern railway in France a few
weeks ago 12 smokers were taken to
pieces at the shops. The fumes that
oozed forth from every crevice would
have sickened an English workman
only the French are customed to a kind
of tobacco that has not been inaptly
compared to half.burnt linen rags
favored with glue and assafptida.
"The timber of a smoking carriage
if it is ever used again-can only be
employed in building another smoker.
But the best oak rolling stock only
lasts about quarter of the time that
soft pine would last if stationery; and
the lemons of smoker timbers rot in
about half that length of time" What
about the smokers throat and stom-
ach ?

CIGARETTES AND STUDENTs.-Pres-
ident David Starr Jordan, of the Stan
ford university, deserves a hearing from
all boys and young men. He says:
GAS college teacher my experience
with boys who have formed the cigar
cite habit is somewhat limited. 1t,
however, confirms me in the opinion
that such boys are like wormy apples;
they drop long before the harvest time.
Very few of them ever advance far
enough to enter college. Very few of
those who enter last beyond the first
year. They rarely make failures in
after life, because they do not have
any after life. The boy who begins
cigarette smoking before he is Is
never enters the life of the world.
When other boys are taking hold of
the worlds work he is concerned with
the sexton and the undertaken.
"There is one grim argument to be
made for the use of cigarettes by boys
it helps on the survival Of the fttest.
The manly boy does not take to such
things"

THE VERDICT STOoD.-A curious
judgment was pronounced the other
day by a judge in court of law at
Volisso, in the Island of Scio. An
action for damages was brought by two
persons against the local railway COM
pany for losses sustained by a collision.
1t Itappeared that man haAst ga' arm,
and young woman had lost her hus-
band. The judge, Greek, assessed
the damages thus: He gave 5000
piasters to the man for the loss of his
arm, and 1000 to the woman for the loss
of her husband. At this there were
loud murmurs, whereupon the judge
gave his reasons in these terms: "My
dear people, my verdict must remain,
for you will see that it is just one.
Poor Uikola has lost his arm, and
nothing on earth can restore that
priceless limb. But you," turning to
the woman, "you are still young and
pretty. You have now money; you
will easily find another husband, who
possibly may be as good-perhaps
better-than your dead lord. This
is my verdict, my people, and so it
must 90 forth" So saying, the judge
left them all. The people cheered
him, and congratulated themselves on
having such o judge.

CHAPTER. VII

I shall try to condense into a single
chapter the narrative Of events in Lon
don from the time Of my departure un-
til the day some months later when our
scheme was exploded and all took to
fight when Noyes was arrested.
I left for Paris on Monday. On
Wednesday Noyes went to the bank and
drew out all the money to my credit ex-
cept $500. The same day he went to
Birmingham and mailed lot No. Of
home manufactured bills, representing
98, 900.
The next "a hours were an anxious
time for my friends. The bills would be
delivered by the early mail on Thursday,
and if all went right the proceeds would
be placed to my credit by 12 o'clock, and
the bills themselves would be slowed
away in the vanlts until they were due
some months ahead. George and Mac
waited with the greatest anxiety until
2 o'clock. They had everything packed
for instant flight when at that hour they
sailed out of Macs lodging and started
for the bank to make the test They had
filled out two Warren checks.
Moves went Oh ahead, the others fol-
lowing.
Nodding good day to the cashier, ne
asked for $4,000 in gold and the re-
mainder in notes, which were handed
him at once, and three very happy men
sat down that evening to dinner because
the days operations had conclusively
proved that the Bank Of England meth
ods were fallible.
The next morning Noyes went to Jay
Cooke & Co. and ordered $4,000 In
United States bonds, giving check for
them. The same afternoon he went to
Birmingham and mailed another letter,
this one containing e15,00O in bills
and later drew 1000 in gold from the
bank. On Monday he went after the
bonds, and the $75, 900 was handed over
to him without question. The whole
operation was repetition Of these tao
tics, but with All ever increasing volume
in the amounts of the bills.
On some days the mail brought to the
bank letters with bills for 800, OOO,
sometimes for more, sometimes for less.
So November and December passed
away, and the bank continued day by
day and week by week laying away IN
its vaults the worthless collateral of Mr.
F. A. Warren in exchange for its gold.
In London the boys talked OF spend
ing Christmas at home, but the agree
ment to stay-and it prevailed-was
that, since the money came IN SO
easily and in such amounts, it was a
pity to run away from it. Then, again.
by obtaining al enormous sum and put
ting it in q place Of absolute security
tho bank would be glad to compromise
the matter in consideration of receiving
a million or two back again.
So they spent pretty merry and an
exceedingly expensive Christmas IN
London, but late in February they de-
termined to pack up and leave.
Everything smiled upon them. The
gold and bonds they had meant for
tunes for all 1 was away in troplc ls-
lands leading an idle lifo with my bride
amid the cocu;nut and palm trees. Mac

a9@ Stone, like lumber, requires
seasoning. Stone is often spoken of as
the synonym of solidity-"as solid as
rock ?" we say, hut as matter of fact,
stone is very far from being solid. A
cubic foot of the most compact granite.
for instance, weighs about l64 pounds,
while cubic foot of iron weighs AGA
pounds. This plainly shows that in be-
tween the atoms which compose the
mass of the most enduring stone there
exists much space for air, moisture, etc.
This seasoning of stone prior to use for
building purposes has been well under
stood by the architects of all ages, but
in the modern rush of Nineteenth-ce
tury building too little attention has
been paid to it. Now it enters into
the calculations Of every good archi-
tect.-Railway Review.

when the details transpired at the trial

The facts were simply these:
presented myself at the bank, and
sending my card to the manager was
ushered at once into his parlor. After a
few remarks upon the money and stock
market I produced the bill, remarking
that had curiosity to show him which
had been sent me by correspondent in
Paris. 1t was certainly curiosity. 1t
was a thing entirely unknown in the
history of the bank to have bill OF ex-
change bearing the signature Of a cabi-
net minister certifying that the internal
revenue tax had been paid on it. This,
along with the circumstance that the
bill was made payable to myself, evil
IDENTIFY made considerable impression on
the manager and confirmed him IN his
good opinion Of his customer. The un-
usual features of this bill Of exchange led
him to relate some Of the inner events
Of the banks history, during which l
asked him what precaution the bank
took against forgery. He told me for
gerry on the bank was impossible.
But asked: "Why impossible? 9th
er banks get hit sometimes and why
not the Bank Of England?" To-that
question he gave long reply, ending
with the assertion that "our wise fore,
fathers have bequeathed us a system
which is perfect. " "Do you wish me to
understand you have not changed your
system since your forefathers' timer l
said. To which he emphatically replied,
"Not in the slightest particular for
hundred years. h." In conclusion I told
him 1 should be fully occupied looking
after my different business interests, but
would give him call if I found time.
I also said I would have the bill dis
counted and take the cash away with
me instead Of having it placed to my
credit. He called all attendant, gave the
necessary order, and the cash was hand
ed me. Bidding the manager goodby, l
repaired to our meeting place and show
ed the notes for the discounted bill.
Even George was satisfied that my credit
at the bank was good for any amount OF
discounts on any sort Of paper.
Everything now was ready for my de-
parture from England. For some weeks
my partners had been busy preparing for
the completion of the operation.
The first lot Of bogus bills were ready
to 20 into the mail at Birmingham as
soon as I was out of the way, it having
been decided that I should then be out
of the country. So one Monday late in
November / packed my baggage, and
after many warm handshakings bade
my friends adieu. We had had many
talks about the happy future. We had
planned pleasant things and spoken COL
fidently of our four-in-hands, our sum-
mer cottages at Saratoga and Newport.
Of our town house, fine suppers and Oh
boxes at the opera. after that I saw
them for q brief hour on the coast Of
France and once more said adieu. When
we met again, it was in Newgate. I
need hardly say that for the next 20
years we had no boxes at the grand
opera, no four-in- hands, nor yet any fine
suppers, but all that which was merely
external passed away, consumed in that
fierce fame, but all that was manly and
true remained-that is, our devotion and
courage and our high resolve to conquer
fate and live for better things.

WALKING BACKWARD For A HEAD

WALKING BACKWARD For A HEAD
ACHE.-"An excellent and never fail
ing cure for nervous headache" said
an apostle of physical culture, ''is the
act of walking backward. Just try it
sometime, if you have any doubt about
it. have yet to meet the person who
didn't acknowledge its efficacy after a
trial. Nobody has as yet discovered
or formulated a reason why such q
process should bring such certain re-
lief. Physicians say that it is probably
because the reflex action of the body,
brings about a reflex action of the
brain, and thus drives away the pain
that when induced by nervousness is
the result of too much going forward.
Don't you know how, at such times
you have the feeling that everything
in your head is being pushed forward -?
As soon as you begin to walk backward,
however, there comes feeling OF
everything being reversed, and this is
followed by relief. The relief is al
ways certain and generally speedy.
Ten minutes is the longest | have ever
found necessary. An entry or long
narrow room makes the best place for
such promenade. You should walk
very slowly, letting the ball of your
foot touch the floor first and then the
heel, just the way, in fact, that one
should in theory walk forward, but
which in practice, is so rarely done.
Besides curing nervous headache, there
is no better way to learn to walk well
and gracefully forward than the prac-
tice of walking backward. A half an
hour of it once day will do wonders
toward improving the gait of any
woman.

BEGINNING AGAIN.-When two peO-
pie have "made up" after quarrel,
it is safest to ''let sleeping dogs lie,"
and refer no more 10 the bone of con-
tention. Even good natured recur-
renee to the subject contains within it
germs of recrimination. A Scotch
couple lived together happily for sew
eral years, but one evening when they
were seated at their fireside u mouse
CHANGED to run across the floor.
"There's a moosie,' said the wife.
ut cam frue below the bed"
"Na," said her husband, cit cam
DOT below the kist (chesD."
They began to debate the point, a
keen argument ensued, and angry
words were unsparingly used. The
controversy was resumed in the morn
ing and was continued from day to
day, with increasing violence, until
the wife left the house and returned to
her friends.
The couple lived apart for - years,
and then after friendly intercession
became reconciled. They resumed
housekeeping, and during years the
voice of discord was unheard beneath
their roof. AT length the wife ven
tured to refer to the cause of their long
estrangement.
"Wasn't it very absurd, dear John,"
said she, "that we should have sepa-
rated aboot sic a trifle as a moosie
comm frae below the bed ?"
81 tell we it cam from DOT below the
kist woman" said the husband sharply.
at did ma that, john" retorted the
wife. Il mind seen it, as if 'twer yes
terday, comm frae under the bed"
The quarrel had begun again, and
ragged furiously. In short time the
couple separated, and were never re-
united.
