The Chinese government is slowly
but surely pushing forward the rail-
way from Tientsin to Peking. and 1t Is
expected that in June the traveller or
other foreign devil' will be able to &c
by rail from the seashore to the gates
of the mysterious capital. This will
add about 80 miles to the 124 miles OF
the road from Tientsin to the kaiping
coal mines, which now constitutes the
railway system of China. The spell
OF prejudice has been broken, and sew
eral other railway enterprises are now
on foot. The chief of these, a great
trunk line from Picking southwesterly
to Hankow on the coast, a distance Of
about 1,400 miles. has already been
started, with a small government sub
siey. but it's rapid construction is not
to be expected. A short road from
Shanghai to Woosung is also In prog
ress. 1t may be well. however, to an.
ticipate many inquiries by assuring oul
readers that there is not at present
nor il there likely to be for a Ions
time to come, any demand for Ameri'
can railway men in China.

THE TRADE IN JEWSHARPS.
America Makes the Best and They Are
Popular in Mining Regions.

America Makes the Best and They Are
Popular in Mining Regions.
The cheapest jewsharps come from
Germany and Austria, the medium and
finer grades from England, and the
very finest are now made in this coun-
try. Ofthe total production, two-thirds
or more are made in England. Jews
harps are made in standard sizes, rang
ing in length from an inch and quarter
TO four inches. They are occasionally
made to order larger than that, but a
four-inch jewsharp is a good deal of a
jewsharp, and it may have n very mu-
steal tone. There are cheap jewsharps
which are sold at retail for n cent. A
four-inch imported iewsharp retails for
a quarter of dollar. An American
jewsharp of this size sells for so cents.
It's iron frame, or harp, is timed, and its
steel tongue is tipped with brass.
Besides being made of many sizes,
jewsharps are made with the harp part
OF various ornamental designs. Jews
harps are not tuned to key; but harps
of a desired key may be found. Com
mercially jewsharps rank not as mu-
steal instruments, but as toys. Many
jewsharps are, however, used as mu-
steal instruments, and are played upon
by men. and not infrequently in cor
junction with musical instruments.
Jewsharps are sold more or less
throughout the country. Many are sold
in mining regions of the south and west
and wherever Hungarian and like labor
is employed. In such places it is not
unusual to find man playing pews-
harp while Others play accordions and
so on.
The total sales of jewsharps in this
country are not so large as they for
merlY were.-N. Y. Sun.

COURT DAY IN EARLY KANSAS.
How n Mild-Mannered Sheriff In
duced Spectators to Disarm.

In the early days of Kansas, when
the state was divided into nine dis
tricts instead of 20, Judge William
Brown presided over the Ninth judicial
district, which took in all the territory
from Marion county TO Colorado on the
west, and the Indian territory on the
south. The judges district was bigger
than the state of Massachusetts,. and, be-
sides calling for several thousand miles
of travel by stage every year, il en-
braced some wild and woolly territory.
When he arrived at Medicine Lodge to
hold his first term, he found each jury
man with belt full of cartridges en-
circling his waist, and at least one large
"a" slung from his hip. The litigants
and spectators were attired in the same
manner, and to Judge Brown, who is
emphatically man of peace. the pros
pect seemed uncomfortably warlike.
He mildly suggested TO the sheriff that
he persuade the crowdto lay aside their
arms during the sitting of the court.
The sheriff, a well-known character by
the name of Reuben Lake, was noted
for his plain speaking and profanity.
