Was Horribly Tortured

Vancouver. B. c., July 3.-According to
the Picking correspondent of the North
China Daily News, DR.. Yung Wing, LII.
D., was studying medicine and law at
Yale up to three months ago, when he
was visited by a Chinese, with whom he
left Yale for the west. It has since been
learned that this Chinese brought to DR..
Prince Chang. comforting upon him a po-
sition under the imperial Chinese govern
ment, provided he accompanied the
bearer Of the letter to Shanghai. The doc
tor accepted the position, and he and the
Chinese friend sailed an the steamer Cop
tic for Shanghai.
AS soon as the two Chinese were put
ashore from the launch which took them
from the Coptic at Woosung, they were
met by a number of Chinese, who bound
the doctor and threw him into a bamboo
cage, in which he was carried to Picking.
On the arrival at the Chinese capital, the
unfortunate doctor was imprisoned in a
temple. While there he was horribly tor
tured, his body being burned with hot
irons. 1t was given out by the local au-
thorities that DR.. Yung Wing was inn
prisoned because he was believed to have
had some relations in, or in connection
| with the late unfortunate reform move
ment, but it is alleged that in reality he
was made a prisoner by Prince Chang,
who hoped to extort one from his
friends. This scheme was nipped in the
bud by an American resident of Picking,
to whom the doctor managed to send
word of his predicament and who sue
ceeded in effecting his release.

PICKED THE WINNERS.
THE INTER MOUNTAINS TIPS ON
COURSING WE'RE ALL RIGHT.

The Inter Mountain is a bad hand at
picking winner in the coursing stakes,
We don't think. Gut of twenty predic-
tons made Saturday, three unqualified
ones were wrong, two qualified opinions
leaned the wrong way, and two races
Were not run as carded, leaving thirteen
predictions out of eighteen that were
right. We will try it again for tomor-
row.
There are ten braces left in. In the
second round Fitz-Resina will beat Tor
nado: Rarrister will beat Smut; Lobelia
Will beat Sapphire; Flying Dutchman
will beat Lady Euclind; Lady Regina
will beat Miss Marietta; Flashlight will
beat Lord Nelson: Silver Bow. who ran
Very like the old Silver Bow yesterday,
will beat Mill Creek unless his race of
yesterday has used him up, which is
likely. as the old dog is short of work;
still we will say Silver Bow for choice;
Bob Fltz will beat Lear King; Rusty will
beat Ring, and Lady Hearst will beat
Montana Eclipse.
Should they come that way, that will
bring Fitz-Regina and Barrister to-
! gether as the first brace in the third
round. and if Barrister gets an easy
course the first time in he will beat Fitz;
Flying Dutchman will beat Lobelia;
Flashlight will beat Lady Regina; prob
ably Bob Fitz will beat Silver Bow, as it
would be foolish to expect the old dog
To run more lhdH one SOou Nurse III HIS
present condition., and Lady Hearst will
beat Rusty.
Still, supposing that they fall as pre-
dicted, if Fitz-Regina beats Barrister,
the chances are he will beat Flying
D%utchman; if Barrister gets through,
Dutchman will probably beat him, for it
is pretty sure Barrister will rave enough
by that time, while Fitz and Dutchman
both stay till the COWS come home; hut
we think Fitz a trifle the best. Which
ever gets through in the Bob Fitz-Silvel
Bow course. Flashlight will attend to his
case, and Lady Hearst vii! have a bye.
In the next round, Flashlight will havt
the bye, and FitzRegina or Barrister, OF
D~utchman. which ever gets through. will
have to rum, and. unless something GU
of the way happens, be beaten by Lady
Hearst.
That will leave Lady Hearst and Flash
light to run for first money, and the
chances are Flashlight will win.
Cut this out and paste 1t in your hat

Why Ton Yawn.

Have you ever observed at theater or concert that the people who are most deeply interested appear between the acts to be quite weary of the whole thing, yawning half dozen times in successionf The reason of this is a physiological one. When your attention is much absorbed in anything exciting or touching, you breathe in very shall low manner and take into your lungs only half enough air. Consequently, when your attention is relaxed, you have to make up the deficiency. This you do by yawning, which, after all. is only breathing very deep breath.
 If you watch man at play and observe that he is greatly moved by some incident. you may feel sure that when the scene ends he will sigh and a moment or two later yawn repeatedly. Of course the yawning, so far from be- ing sign of weariness, is a proof of the liveliest appreciation.
 Very often you will observe the same phenomenon in girl reading a novel And by her yawns you can tell when the end of some absorbing incident is reached. Enouirer.

Until recently the California people did not know how to cure lemons. The fruit was never tart enough. There would be plenty of juice, but 1t con- tained a high percentage of sugar and a small percentage of acid, which made it unmarketable. But a few years ago the lemon growers clubbed together and sent experts over to Italy and Spain to learn the business, and now they are producing much better results. They pick the fruit before 1t begins to turn yellow and put it in a curing house. where it is kept at an even temperature of about 90 degrees for about 20 days, which ''sweats out" all the sugar. It is then removed to another temperature for 60 days more before 1t Is ready for the market. Thus the highest degree of acid and the largest degree of juice can be ob
 tained. One of the curious effects of this sweating" process is to reduce the thickness of the skin. It originally grows thick and tough, but the acid seems to eat 1t up.-Chicago Record.

Little Tricks Which Show What c
 COnsummate Actress Is Patti.

little Tricks Which Show What . 1 COnsummate Actress Is Patti. l A dramatic writer of San Francisco tells the following amusing story of Patti's last visit to the Pacific coast. He was at the station with many others to meet the great diva when she ar rived.
 "The diva stepped from the train" said the San Franciscan, ''and after Inhaling lung full of fog remarked 'Oh, this is heaven All my troubles are paid for. Thank heaven, breathe the air of San Francisco once againr This was all very sweet in the high priced canary bird. and the newspaper boys were all delighted.
 However. it was only short time before went down to the train to meet Patti at Salt Lake City. She was de- scending from her car, and as her feet touched the ground she exclaimed: Thank heaven, I breathe the air of Salt Lake City once more All my trou- bles are paid for. Oh, this is heavenr The newspaper boys were all delighted with her.
 "As for myself, on both of these oc- casions I was delighted also-with the diva's lovely hypocrisy, that accursed sin which the poet tells us takes the best men in. never thought Patti much of an actress, but changed my mind in this respect after witnessing these two exhibitions.
 
 Nothing in the way of "lovely hy- pocrisy" can surprise anybody who has ever seen Patti on the concert stage She rushes to the footlights, vision of smiling radiance, eyes swimming with the moisture of overpowering joy and a look of pleading affection on her coun- tenance, as if the present moment were the happiest of her life and as if she were consumed by an eager desire to embrace and kiss everybody in the au- dience And she does it all so naturally and spontaneously that the majesty of the assemblage is instantly mashed" and would cheerfully lynch anybody who would intimate that there was any "acting" about it.

A Metal Birds Nest.

In the Museum of Natural History at Soleure, in Switzerland, there is said to be a birds nest made entirely of steel. There are a number of clock making shops at SOleure, and in the yards of these shops there are often found lying disused or broken springs of clocks. One day clockmaker mo- ticed in a tree in his yard a birds nest of peculiar appearance. Examining it, he found that pair Of wagtails had built a nest entirely of clock springs. It was more than four inches across, and perfectly comfortable for the birds. After the feathered architects had reared their brood, the nest was taken to the museum, where it is preserved as striking illustration of the skill of birds in turning their surroundings to in building their nests.
