The Eskimo Character.


We found the Innuits very quick-wit-
ted and intelligent; with unvarying
good nature and keen appreciation of
fun, they proved themselves compan-
ionable in spite of their uncleanliness.
Their skill manifested itself in many
ways during these long excursions.
Later in the year it showed itself, on
one occasion, in a particularly interest
ing way. Having found it necessary to
cross a glacier on a hunting trip, our
Innuits paused at the edge and halloed
to ascertain the direction of the echo.
On the return storm of snow and fog
had obliterated all landmarks, but the
Innuits easily found the way by means
of the echo.
There was always charm in their
strange melodies, and particularly at
night, as they slowly rowed along the
black waters among ghostly, beautiful
icebergs. under the starless sky. And
such melodies! They were like the
signing of the winds, low, contented,
full-breathed, yet with an undertone of
sadness. But at times their songs are
vehement with joy and action. Frank
Wlbert Stokes. in Century. 6

in Cleveland.
Cleveland, O., Aug. 1.-All union men
have been ordered out again from the
Brown hosting works. They claim
that the settlement of the strike was a
trick. The trouble will spread to all
iron workers in the city.
Cleveland, D., Aug. 1.-TWO companies
of militia and 90 police were ordered to
the Brown works by Mayor McKisson
shortly befor noon Saturday in anticipa-
ton of trouble at the works when The
men came out at noon. FIFTEEN minutes
after the first order was issued another
cal! for police was made, and every
available policeman in the city was sent
out. At IL o'clock crowd of Is non
union men left the works without police
escort. They were intercepted by thee
or four men who followed them at a
distance. The locked-out men threw
rocks at the men they were following.
This SO excited the latter that just be-
fore reaching Clifton street several of

IF the attractions of the earth were
less powerful our winged tribes might
have received q much greater develop
ment. In virtue of the unquestionable
principle known as 'the struggle for
existence" these winged creatures
dominating all others, would have been
the strongest. Progress would have
been effected along this line. The su.
perior race, the human race, would
have been winged race. These simple
considerations, which it may be easy tc
extend much further, are enough tc
convince us that our human form is
essentially terrestrial, and that the in
habitants of Mars cannot resemble US
They are different.
Upon Mars, for example. one might
suppose, without scientific heresy, that
the remarkable lightness of their bodies
may have developed the winged race
more highly in the direction indicated.

that the reality is something absolutely

THOUSANDS DEAD.
Awful Eject of Tidal Wave on the
Chinese Coast.


Chinese Coast.
Shanghai, Aug. 3.-The recent dis
astrous, tidal wave along the coast of
northern Japan has been paralleled by
"a similar phenomenon on the coast of
Haichu, northeast of the province of
Kiangsu, in which Shanghai is situated.
The news of the disaster did not reach
here before, owing to the lack of
facilities for communication with the
part of the country devastated.
On July 26 there suddenly appeared
in the Yellow sea huge bank of water
that was rushing shoreward with ter
rife velocity. The water off the coast
is shallow, and when the wave was some
distance away it began to comb, and
the roar could be heard for distance.
From the stories Of eyewitnesses and
the reports of people in the country
back from the coast, the wave was five
miles wide. Thousands of tons of wa
ter were thrown for miles inland, and
everything in its path was swept away.
Many villages were entirely destroyed,
and it is estimated that fully 1000 peo-
pie persisted. All the cattle were
drowned and the rice fields were oblit-
Grated. It is expected that the sur
vivors will meet with worse fate than
by drowning, for with the destruction
of the rice field famine will stare them
in the face in the autumn.
In many cases whole families were
lost. There is already much suffering
among the survivors, who, miserably
poor before the disaster, are now abb
solutely homeless and foodless.

Some Facts Concerning the Sale and Pro-
duction of Open-Faced Watches.

Some Facts Concerning the Sale and Pro-
duction of Open-Faced Watches.
In this country almost every body
carries watch. Probably nine-tenths
of the men, great numbers Of women
and many Young people carry watches
In the best trade of the city many more
watches of gold are sold than of silver;
of all the witches sold throughout the
country about Is per cent. are of gold
The percentage of gold watches is in
creasing. The fashionable watch of
the day is open-faced. The sale OF
open-faced watches is increasing, es-
pecially in fine watches. but it is IN
creaslng also in watches of other
grades. Of fine gold watches sold in
the city probably two-thirds are now
made openfaced. Of all the watches
sold in the United States, gold and sill
yer, probably from a quarter to third
are now made open-faced.
The modern watch has for one of its
characteristics thinness. A mans
watch, which is now made more es--
pecially to wear with evening dress,
and is all the time growing in favor,
is plain, thin, open-faced gold watch
which takes up but little room in the
pocket. Perfect in it's simplicity, this
watch is at the same time of fine work
manship and great beauty. It sells
at $50. A gold watch not so thin nor
so finely finished, bat very handsome
modern watch and an excellent time
keeper, by the same makers and bear
ing their name, can be bought in open
face, the case OF 1S-carat gold, for sos;
in double case, for $40. But gold'
watches and good watches, too, can be
bought for very much less than these
prices; in fact, there never was a time
when watches generally were made in
such tasteful shapes, or when they
were so good for the money or so cheap,
as now.
Taking all the grades together, the"
American production of watches is.
| about 1000 daily; the Importation of
watches amounts to about the same
| number. One might at first wonder
what becomes OF all these watches
A great number are taken up annually
by the new buyers coming into the
market for the first time, out of the.
constant and large increase in the pop
ulation. Great as the percentage of
watch owners now is in this country,
that is also increasing. Many im1ni-
| grants buy watches as soon as they get
| the money; some men own more than
| one watch; watches wear out, or their
/ owners lay them aside for a better
watch or for one of newer style;
watches are lost and destroyed, and
| when one comes to take all things into
consideration it will be seen that the
great production Of watches may be in
large measure easily accounted for

The Augsburg Seminary.

Another phase Of the long mootetl
ownership of the Augsburg Lutheran
Theological seminary in Minneapolis
was up in a hearing before Assistant
Attorney General Childs. 1t was in
the form of an application of the United
Church faction to secure writ of quo
warranto, directed against the trustees
in whose name the title to the institu-
ton at present rests, to show cause
why they should not be removed. The
charges are the old ones, involving the
validity of the Augsburg organization,
the United church, so-called, claiming
to have as good right in the premises
as the Augustana synod, to which the
Augsburg churches remain true.
