There are a large number Of Chinese
engaged IN mining IN northern Califor.
MIA, and two Of these Cclostiais hni a
queer adventure during the closing
days Of last winter. Three Cinnamon
IN camp were taken III, and two Of their
companions volunteered 70 60 20 tho
nearest town, sixteen miles away, for
medicine. The weather was clear, and
the town was reached Ia safety. But
on the return trip a snowstorm came
up, and the Chinese became hopclessly
bcwildcrcd in the rough. mountainous
country. To add TO their troubles, they
each had diffcront Ideas as 10 which
direction 10 take, and finally qunrreled
and separated. Ono Of them had not
gone far before he found hollow tree,
into which 10 crawlcd. lie had matches
with him and built a small flrc, and
there he stayed until rescued, ten days

after three years OF staggering and Keeling

The trade reviews Of last week told us
that "American markets are overloaded

but there is no help for II under the
present tariff law The sponsors OF this
law told us it would extend our foreign
trade, increase our exports. IL has
worked Just the other way. Our exports
haye largely fallen off. We have lost
heavily in foreign markets and Foreigners
have gained largely in our own markets.
This is tariff reform as we find il, not as
