Accor ing TO size.

Like most Orientals. the Chinese are
apt to base their judgments upon ex-
ternals. Capt. Caspar Il. Goodrich,
who. as captain of an auxiliary cruiser,
did such excellent blockading service
during the war with Spain. tells story
which points TO this conclusion.
The Captain is very short, but very
dignlfied man. Once when he was In
a Chinese port, he went ashore to pay
his respects to the project, who, being
of the ruling Manchu race, was a much
larger man than the ordinary run OF
Cinnamon.
When Capt. Goodrich rose to take his
leave. the dignitary made a special eff
fort to be polite.
"Your excellency," said he. II now
see how you, though little man, come
to command big warship. II you
were only little fatter you would be
an admiral"

Newton County Index: We desire
to call the attention OF all candi.
dates for the Legislature and the
general public to the necessity for
a new provision in the law in re.
gard to the duties of county survey
ors. At present any one calling
upon the surveyor to make a survey
of any property is involved with
expense of running lines equally
for the benefit of others adjoining,
without a chance of an equI distri-
button of the expense. Now we
suggest to the incoming legislature
new statute directing whenever a
survey is required, whether OF a
whole section or a part of the same;
that a majority of all resident land
owners may petition the county
surveyor to make such sur.
vey, and distribute the expense
among all the parties interested, in
proper proportion to the benefits
to be derived.
