CRIME IN HoNG-KONG.
An Extraordinary, Robbery Commit
fed in a Bank

An extraordinary and daring robbery was
that which took place at the Central Bank of
Western India. Hong Kong. in 1865, when the
thieves succeeded in getting clear off with
gold and specie to the extent Of nearly 100000.
The robbers must have been at work for some
weeks before they entere d the banks treasury.
Their principal labor was in constructing a
tunnel sixty feet from an adjacent drain TO a
spot exactly below the floor OF the banks treas.
ure vault.
perpendicular shaft of ten feet OF sufficient
diameter was then made to permit Of the pas
sage of one man TO reach the granite powders
on which the floor OF The vault rested. These
gave way through being undermined; and a flag
being forced up. entrance 10 the vault was at
once obtained. Two boxes were removed con-
tanning gold bars or ingOts. marked with the
banks stamp, as we'll as all The paper money,
some bags of dollars aDd box OF 10-cent
pieces. No fewer than between twenty and
thirty men were arrested on suspicion. One of
them had $4,000 in his possession and two bars
Of gold bearing the banks mark.
The robbery was effected between a SaLur-
day and Sunday, and the first thing that
reused suspicion was the fact of little boy
trying to sell bar OF gold 10 hawker 10 one
of the baZaars in Hong Kong. A gentleman
who was passing asked where he got the gold,
and the boy replied that IL had been found at
q certain place. He gave the youth what he
asked for ft-Damey, Stand then informed

"A CLOUD OF. ANTS. :
It Was Mistaken for Smoke From
Locomotive.


"While driving home from Oneida last FRI
day." said farmer who lives In the extreme
western part of the country. 81 saw a big cloud
moving due north over the fields and woods.
There wasn't any wind blowing, the air: was
still, and / was unable to account for the pres
ence OF big dark cloud speeding away across
the heavens on such a still, bright cay At
first L thought that it was a cloud of smoke
from the railroads. but then when l fl rst saw
ii the cloud was IN such a position that
il could NOT have possibly come from the
West Shore Railroad, and, even il It had,
there never was a cloud OF smoke that
hung so closely together and so long as that
did. As sat In my wagon 1t appeared 10 me
10 be mile long and perhaps half mile wide,
but, of course, that part Of IL was all specula-
ton, for no one can AXE a very accurate
guess of the size OF a cloud. The BODY in The
sky was as dark as the smoke from locomO-
tive and looked TO be quite dense. IL travelled
quicker than any cloud ever scudded before
thunder-shower in this section. When IL first
attracted attention 1t was high Up in the heav-
ems, but it rose and fell several times like the
soaring of bird. Once 1t was but few feet
above the TOE OF some woods. Again IL took an
upward course and continued onward IN an uD-
swerying north course. II was about o'clock
that the cloud passed.
THAT evening noticed number of reddish
winged wood ants about on the grass and IN
The roads. IL occurred 10 me that the strange

these lying ants. | he more l pondered over
the phenomenon the more / became convinced
that it was cloud OF ants that passed over the
country. Such story was too big for me TO

and 1T that place it passed so low that they
caught the Insects in their hands. We COM
pared notes and found that it required just an
hour for the swarm to move from the place
where they were first seen 10 Constablevllie.
The distance in a straight line is thlrty-one
miles. They were in Oneida County at o. clock
and at just O'clock they were seen In the

Those Tired of Light Fiction May
Here Find Solid Suggestions OF
Lifelong Value.

Sometimes the intelligent brain wesries
of the fairy realm of poesy and fiction, as
the healthy appetite Of ''cakes and kick
shaws." 1t turns to substantials-soIi
sources of thought that will be fruitful
and multiply in future action.
But in these workaday times the aver
age man and woman of intelligence have
little leisure or inclination to tackle Kant
or even Spencer. They are interested in
social problems, but are scared away by
the scientific GOODNESS and dry philosophy
Of such writer's. Their study requires long
grounding and the use Of expensive Ii
braries or sets Of volumes.
When, therefore, a rare chance occurs to
acquire choice brain food In cheap and
attractive form the wideawake thinkers of
the day will grasp at IL quickly.
Such an opportunity is presented by

THE CODE OF NAPOLEON.
1t Was the Greatest Civil Achieve
meut of the Emperor.


The greatest civil achievement of Napo-
leon was the codifcation of the laws. Up
to the Revolution the laws Of France had
been in misty. iDcoherent condition,
feudaI in their spirit and by no means uni
form in their application. The Constituent
Assembly had ordered them revised, but
the work had only been begun. Napoleon
believed justly that the greatest benefit be
could render France would be TO give her
a complete and systematic code. He or
ganized the force for this gigantic task.
and pushed revision with unfiagging
energy.
His part in thu work was interesting and
important After the laws had been we'll
digested and arranged in preliminary
bodies. they were submitted to the
Council of State. 1t was in
the discussions before this body
that Napoleon took part That
man OF 81. brought up as soldier, and
having no legal training could follow the
discussions of such a learned and serious
body as Napoieon's Council OF State al
ways was seems incredible. In fact. he
prepared for each session as thoroughly as
the lawmakers themselves.
His habit was to talk over, before
hand generally. with Cambaceres and
I0EGdliS, TWO leRiSlatUIe Va siche iOdIbibs
and clearness of Judgment, all matters
which were to come up.
"Ae examined each question by Itself"
says Roederer. ''inquiring into all the au-
thorities, times, experiences: demanding to
know how it had been under ancient juris-
prudence. under Louis XIV or Frederick
the Great. When a bill was presented to
the First Consul. he rarely failed to ask
these questions: Is this bill complete?
Does it cover every case? Why have you
not thought of this? Is that necessary?
Is it right or useful? What is done nova
days and elsewhere p,
AT night, after be had gone to bed, he
would read or have read TO him authorities
on the subject. Such was his capacity for
grasping an idea that ne would come 10
Of the subject to be treated and good
idea of its historical development. Thus
he could follow the most erudite and phil
osophcal arguments and could take part
in them.
He stripped them at once Of all conven-
tional phases and learned terms and
stated clearly what they meant He haG
no use for anything but the plain meaning.
Bv thus going to the practical use of a
thing he frequently cleared no tile ideas
of the revisers themselves.
In framing the laws he took care that
they should be worded so that everybody
could understand them. Thus, when law
relating to liquors was being prepared, he
insisted that wholesale and retail should
be defined in such way that they would
be definite ideas to the people. "Pot and
pint must be inserted" he said. There
is no objection to those words. An excise

apples and pears. The apple is one OF the
besl of fruits; oranges also are generally &C.
ceptabia TO mOst people butth juice alone
should be taken and not the pulp, and the
same may he said of lemons and pome-
granates. Tomatoes actor the liver and
bowels, and blackberries, figs, raspberries,
currants and strawb berries may be classed
among the best foods and medicines. The
sugar in them is nutritious, the acid Is
cooling and purifying, and the seeds are
laxative.
Fruits are the natural correctives for
disordered digestion, but the way in which
many persons eat them converts them into
a curse rather than blessing. Instead
of being taken on an empty stomach, or in
com bipa alton with simple grain prepara-
tons such as bread, they are frequently
eaten with oily foods, or they are taken at
the end of the meal, after the stomach is
already full. and perhaps the whole mas
of food washed down with tea. coffee or
other liquid. Fruits to do their besrwork
should be eaten either on an empty stomach
or simply with bread-never with vege-
tables. In the morning. before the fast of
the night has been broken, they are not
only exceedingly refreshing, but they serve
as a natural stimulus to the digestive or
gans. And to produce their fullest, finest
effect, they should be ripe, sound and of
good quality. In our climate freshf fruit
should constitute not the finishing but the
beginning of the meal. particularly the
breakfast, for at least six months in the
year. The good effects that would follow
the abundant use of fruits are often more
than counter balanced by the pernicious
habit of saturating them with sugar. Very
few fruits. If thoroughly ripe and at their
best, require any sugar. particularly II

is a fact that what is intended and pre-
