The Chattanooga Times is not well
pleased with President McKinley's mes
sage, especially the treatment of the
currency question, saying it sis limping,
vague, turgid, inconclusive." Ny what
a pity the Times is dissatisfied. We
hope Mr. Mckinley will not let such a

said il was no affair Of his.

CHINESE JucoLens.
Some Of tho stranse and Startling Yeah
That Thoy Perform.

That They Perform.
Chinese jugglers and Indian faicirs
have pretty much the same "stock in
trade. f" Here is al account Of some
tricks performed by Chinese:
When the conjurer asked the specta-
tors what they wanted to see, some one
sailed for pumpkin.
"A pumpkin" answered the conjur
or; THAT is impossible. Pumpkins are
out Of season. -
However, he was onlv talking, for
presently he took pumpkin seed and
planted it in the earth. Then, having
made his little son, 4 or 8 years old, lie
down, he thrust knife into his throat.
The blood poured out into vessel, end
with it the man moistened the spot
where the seed had been planted !.
Next he covered the corpse with q
cloth and placed wooden bell over the
seed. In few moments sprout was
seen rising from the soil. It grew and
grew and burst into flower. The flower
fell, the pumpkin showed itself and In
creased in size with extraordinary ra-
pidity.
As soon a. 1t was ripe the man picked
IL from the stalk, showed 1t to the pub
Ito and took up collection, after
which, Of course, he lifted the cloth
md found the boy perfectly unframed.
The second feat. by different per-
former. was even more startling. A
peach was called for by one Of the spec
tators.
cit Is March," said the magician
''The land is still icebound. Peaches
are not to be obtained now except in
paradise"
"Oh, WE'LL" answered the spectators,
"you are q sorcerer and ought 70 b
able to bring peach down from heav-
en-"
Tho oonJurer grumbled. but finally
consented to see what he could do. He
began by weaving . roll Of ribbon,
which he cast into the air. Il took al
once the shape Of ladder. which went
up to tremendous height. On IL he
placed child, and the little fellow ran
up the rungs like monkey. Up, mp he
went till he vanished In the clouds
Some moments passed, then peach
dropped from tho sky. The magician
picked Il up, cut IL into slices and Of

Then horrible thing happened. This
head Of tho child dropped out Of the

and after tho sympathetic spectators had

A PERSON who has never been
in the polar regions has no idea
what cold is. When it is 10 or Is
degrees above zero, we fancy it is
pretty chilly, and if our houses are
not 70 degrees warm we fancy we
are freezing to death. Think,
then, of living where the temper
ature of the house goes down to
IS degrees below zero, even when
q roaring fire is burning. In such
a case men have to be bundled in
furs till they lose all semblence to
human beings. DR.. Moss, who
went on a polar expedition in 1875,
tells Of the curious effect of the
cold on q wax candle. At IS de-
grees below zero the flame had all
it could do to keep warm. 1t was
so cold the fame could not melt
the wax, but had to cut itself
down, leaving sort of skeleton of
the candle standing. There was
heat enough, however, to melt
odd-shaped holes in the wall of the
candle, making q beautiful, lace
like cylinder of white through
whose chinks the yellow light
streamed out.

nestle service to . Polish maiden whs
had been plucked green in the wilder

was willing. but ignorant even of the

be impaired by object lessons. The first
lesson was In lighting the gas. Tbs
kitchen treasure was told by her new
mistress that she was to turn the stop
cock and then apply match to the end
Of the pipe. She seemed to comprehend.
The next day the redheaded girl was
attracted by vile Emen issuing froE
the kitchen. On investigation the Pol
ish exile was found standing beside thu
cold water faucet, patiently lighting
matches and holding them under the
stream Of water, which she had turned
on, only to see them Immediately ex-
tinguished, leaving m odor Of charred
wood behind.
In the course Of year or two the red
headed girl hopes to be able to impresf
