SUPREME COURT
FAVORED CHINESE
The Exclusion Act Is a Violation
ofthe Constitution and
Is Void.
4 MOST IMPORTANT FINDING
None Since the Famous bred
Scott Case So Far
Reaching.
\ MOST IMPORTANT FINDING
MAKES MANY CITIZENS
Fourteenth Amendment Provides
That Monsolinn children
Corn In this Country
Are Citizens.

Washington, June 20.--The United
States supreme court, in an opinion
delivered March 2s, 1895, held that Il
Chinese person born in this country of
parents of Chinese descent and sub
Jects of the emperor of China, but dom
ieiled residents of this country, is a
citizens of the United States. Indi-
rcctly the court also decided that the
Chinese exclusion acts, 50 far as they
conflict with the fourteenth amend-
ment Of the federal constitutions. are
null and void.
This opinion, which may fairly be
described us the most important re-
gardins the rights of citizenship since
the famous bred Scott case has re-
ceiyed very little attention at the
hands of the people and press, prob
ably because of the war with Spain.
In view of the fact that the Hawaiian
islands, with more than 10000 Chinese
residents. will shortly become a part
of the United States, this decision be-
comes even more important.
The case was officially styled the
United States, appellant, VS.. Wong
Kim Ark, and it came before the SUI
preme court by appeal from the dis
trict court of the United States for the
northern district Of California. The
opinion of the court was delivered by
Justice Gray, and there were dissent
ing opinions by Chief Justice Fuller
and Justice Harlan. Justice McIIenna
did not sit in the case, so that the ma
jority opinion was upheld by six jus
tees, or only two-thirds of the bench.
As the effect of the opinion extends
back for a period Of thirty years there
are many more Chinese who are citi-
zens of the United States than are
shown by the census returns.

Somehow even the severity of military

One day the regiment was ordered

Some Queer Riddles.

There are quite Il number OF people
who collect musical Instruments. Men
have been known to pay tremendous
prices for violins of rare make. merely
to place these instruments in collections
they are making of such things.
One of the grentest iiddies that ever
was known was to be seen at the French
court in the time Of Charles The Ninth.
This was q viol 50 large that several
boys could be placed inside Of it. The
boys used t. sit inside this queer instru-
ment aud sing the airs that the mar
who handled The bow was playing on
the vicl outside. The effect is said to
have been very beautiful, though it
would seem as if the presence of the
lads in its interior would seriously in
terlere with the tone of the great iid-
de-" as it was called. Many years
after another huge instrument of this
kind was used ut concerts in Boston. 1t
was SO large that to play it tic fiddler
had to stand.on II table to use his bow
at the proper point on the strings. This
instrument was called the grandfather
Of Gddles."-Uarper's Young People

Some Facts OF Interest About n Familiar
Article of Rood.

Most of the beans consumed in this
country are raised in this state, in Cam
ada, and i'll Michigan. Some beans are
coming now from California, and the
California output is increasing. We
import some beans from Europe. the
imports varying, being some years
more and sone less. We arc not i'm
porting many this year. Tho ordinary
white bean such rs we use for baking
grows on a bush about two feet high,
in Il pod somewhat similar TO a pea pod.
The bean is at first soft and of q green
ish tinge, or greenish white, but it
ripens white and hard in the pod, as we
see it in the stores. When it is in just
the right condition the bushes are
pulled up, or they are sometimes cut
down with a machine something like n
moving machine. and piled up in tho
field to dry. Then the bushes are
carted to the barns and thrcslicd, and
the beans are gathered up aud famed
and screened. They are separated into
sizes by screening, and BRANDED &C.
cordingly.
There are marrow, medium, and pca,
or small, beans. In screening benns
the Smaller marrow beans from the
ends of the pods might bo branded
mediums, and the smaller mediums
might be branded peas; but the genu-
inc beans of these pancs are of as dis
tinct varieties rs. for instance. tho SOW
eral varieties of peas are. Most Of tho
beans raised in this country are scnt to
market in barrels; the foreign beans
are imported in bags.
In this country New England is prob
ably the largest consumer Of beans in
preparation to the population. but the
consumption of beans is general every
whore throughout the country, and it
has increased with the growth of popu-
latien. Beans can be easily trans
ported, and if properly cured they are
not affected by hot climates. New
hc;ns begin to be received in Scptem-
bes. In quantity the bean crop of the
current year is not up to the usual pro-
duetion. Ihe actual consumption OF
beans is much greater in winter than in
SUMMER. We export some beans to the
West Indies and to South American
countries in some years when there is
more or less of failure of their own
crops.
Common an article of food as beans
are in this country, We don't begin to
eat as many us the people in Europe
do. The production there is enormous.
Beans are cheaper there than here, and
The consumption is immcnsc.-M. T.

Moving !, Church.

London Telegraph: An extraordi-
nary feat in church removal will soon
be witnessed in London. Hidden way
in the quiet recess of Great ormond
street. Bloomsbury, is. an unpreten-
tious building externally which in
reality is one of the most beautiful
Roman Catholic churches in the me-
troplis. 1t was built by the late Sir
George Bowyer, once a well known
member of parliament and a chamber
lain OF the pope, rs n temple of the Or
der of Malto knights of the Hospital
lers of st. John of Jerusalem. whom
the baronet was the means of reintro-
ducing into England; but it was also
associated with the hospital of st. Eliz-
abeth of Hungary, next door, founded
by Cardinal Wiseman in 1865.
The extension Of the hospital for
sick children, close by, halnpered the
authorities of the smaller institution
in a scheme of enlargement they had
devised, and they accordingly agreed
to sell their whole property to the 9TH
er hospital, and erect a. new building
for themselves in St. Johns wood.
This involved the demolition or re
moval of the Church of st. John of
Jerusalem, and the question, after
careful consideration by Cardinal
Vaughn, was referred for final decision
to the pope, who has now authorized
the church to be taken down stone by
stone and regretted beside the new
hospital in the district mentioned. The
beautiful altar and magnificent cary
ing which the church contains will he
transferred bodily, SO that on its new
site the building, externally and in
ternally, will have exactly the same APP
pearslnce as it has at present.
