MALAY CHARACTER.
A misrepresentation of Long stand
ing That Is without FOun-
dalton.

In character the Malay is impas-
sive. He exhibits a reserve, diffidence,
and even bashfulness, which is in some
degree attractive and leads the OBJ
server to think that the ferocious,
blood-thirsty character imputed to the
race must be grossly exaggerated. He
Is not demonstrative. He is slow and
deliberate in speech. Children in the
company of men are silent, and are
generally quiet and obedient. When
alone the Malay neither talks nor sings.
He is cautious Of giving otfense, He
does not quarrel easily about money
matters, Practical joking is utterly re-
pugnant to his nature. The Malays Of
the higher class are exceedingly polite.
They are proud, and, II ill-treated, re-
vengeful; but under generous treat
ment are gentle, kind, humane, CRATE
full, docile and faithful. They are duti-
full children and kind parents. They
treat their aged kinsmen with the
greatest kindness, and feel it duty to
relieve the wants Of an INDECENT rela-
ton. Old men and women are always
regarded with respect, says the En-
cyclopedia of India (1s5s).
DR.. Oxley described the character Of
the unsophisticated Malay as remark
able for its simplicity and honesty.
They have q regard for truth, and may
generally be depended upon in their
statements. What has so often been
written Of their revengeful spirit, he
says, is much exaggerated; polite in the
extreme, according to their own ideas,
they never indulge in abuse one to-
ward the other

BALLOONS WILL SOAR.
Even II Pierced by the Bullets from q
Thousand Rifles They WiIi
Not Collapse.

Time and again the plot of a story has
hinged on the escape Of the villain in a
balloon, and his miserable ending when
well-aimed bullet from the hero's rife
has pierced the gas bag and brought
the whole concern smashing to the
ground.
Nothing could, however, be more
false to fact. A simple bullet will no
more bring down balloon than grain
Of sand an ostrich. The experiment has
been tried, and by no less person than
the Brothers Spencer, the famous Lon
don balloonists.
A captive balloon was sent up and an
cbored about 700 or 800 feet up. Then
firing began with ordinary army rifles.
Impossible as It may seem, over 1000
bullets pierced the silk, yet even then
II was three hours before enough gas
escaped to bring the balloon once more
TO firm ground. One reason Of this is
that the elasticity OF the material to
some extent automatically closes the
rents In the material.

PROSPERITY AND PRICES.

Indianapolis Sentinel
Our republican contemporaries are re-
newing their claims of prosperity in the
land on account OF the increase of wages
in several OF the highly protected indus
tries, and it is of Importance to the Amer
lean people that they should keep in mind
all the facts with regard to this move
ment. This country is, in common with
many others, trying vast experiment In
money legislation, and the claim 10 per-
sistently made that what prosperity there
is is due to renewed assurance of the con
tinuation OF the gold standard--of honest
money'--of 'the best money in the world
by which is meant the dearest money in
the world. If we are to derive any benefit
from our experience we must not he de-
luded by any false claims in regard TO
this matter No sensible observer questions
that the country Is somewhat more pros
perous, as q whole, than it was In the
