A Corning minister denounces min
strel entertainments as low and de-
grading, and there is excitement In
consequence because some leading citi-
zens of the town propose to play in
that line for charity. The essentials
OF these shows are fun and music, and
they may be as legitimate as good act
ing and good preaching. Are we to be-
lieve that because they are enjoyable
they must necessarily be bad?

A stranger named Rawlins appeared
in a church in Blue Ridge, Ga, on
recent Sunday, in dress rather the
worse for wear. After the services por-
tions of the congregation laughed and
swore at him, and finally one of them
shot him dead. Then the congregation
seized the murderer and hanged him.
1t will be seen that, while the members
of this church are fastidious as to
dress, they are strictly Just, though
perhaps little rapid in their methods.

Russia has ordered the immediate ex-

construction of warships, sum rep
resenting about S70,OO0,000, the pur-

expenditure is the fact that to raise

CHINA TEA
t-AND-t
Tea Trade!
Extract from Consular Report
of the u. S. Consul Bed
loe at AmO, China.
BEWARE OF GREEN TEA.

1T is an abominatlon and fraud. In
the first place it is the unripe leaf, and
bears the same relation to the real ar
tcle, that the green does to the ripe
peach. The green tea of commerce de-
rives its rare color from being cured or
rather killed, in dirty copper pans, from
being mixed with roots and shrubs,
from being stained with indigo, and
chrome yellow from being colored with
verdigris, grass juice or chlorophyl.
Every green dye known to commerce
has been used to produce that much adj
mired, but death dealing color, except
pehaps Paris green. As soon as the
use of that poisonous substance will
give a profit of cent pound, no
doubt it will be literally used by the mer-
cenary Monaghan merchants, and the
much more mercenry cultured European
tea trade"
