ways been pround to wear breast plate inscribed with the character Fun which means happiness, from tha pen cil of the Empress Tsa Hsi.
 Her son died in 1874, an event sup posed to have been portended by tle trarzit of Venus, when the very dis ease to which he succumbed was :ndi- cated by the postule which appeared on the face of the sun. She then assumed tine tl.le of empress dOwager and en- tered upon her second regency, there having occurred only short interreg- mum while the younS man exercised
 what was call.d a nominal indepen- dence.
 At once she cast about to find a child to adopt in his place, and she na,- urally selected the youngest among available candidate. That was the son of her sister (above ms nlioned), an fn- fant of three years, who is now thirty years of age, tlne current year being stylcd lhe twenty-siXth of the reign of Kwang Su.
 "As Tse Hsi dominated the spirit of her colleag que. still more did her intel lectual power and s,rong character Uvershadow her adopted son. Though fifteen years ago she retired to the nominal seclusion of her luxurious pal ace on the banks of the Kweng Ming lake at the foot of the western hills. flf-
 teen miles from Pekin, she never lost interest CT influence in the affairs of the empire. This may be inferred from two facts: First, that she requir d the emperor to go and knock his head at
 her feet once in five days, and again, from a decree of lAe emperor in which
 he required the high officials through out the realm always to return thanks
 to the dowager empress for the4r ap- po1ntment.
 "A little more than two years ago some Of the old grandees, becoming alarmed by the furious speed by which | the young emperor drove Tn the direc- tion of progress, proceeded in body to
 the summer palace and threw them selves at the feet of the empress dowa- ger, besaeching her to save ;hc empire
 She yielded to their prayer, struck down the young man with thunder bolt seized the reins herself for d third
 regency and drove the chariot on the
 back track wiih equally furious speed
 and with d far more disastrous result For now she has seen her capital laid in ashes, and she herself has been com
 pelled for a second time to seek safety in flight.

steam engine and a separator. That, you know. is the new device we have for driving. by centrifugal forcs, the cream out of the milk. Instead of set ting the milk and waiting for twenty four hours for the cream to raise, we can get the cream out Of the milk in twenty minutes after it comes fresh and warm from the cows. had a cream trade that left me with a good many gallons of separated milk This was good to give to pigs, and made a big figure in the profits. I had always raised Berkshire hogs as the best brand I knew of, but some one told me about TamworthS, that would make the fat and lean streaked bacon, and the fine lean hams. So I got Tamworths. and I shipped my hams to Smithfisld to be cured and made handsome returns from them.
 But all this did not make me rich. The other fellows crowded me clOse. I was selling less milk every year in pro- portion to my investment in cows. barns and land. I seemed to be forced to 80 into side issues to make money, pay wages and keep my chin above water. One winter l was taken sick and had to go into town for medical treatment. I boarded with a nice fami- ly where the household was run in ex- cellent style.
 T had a most aggravating annoy ance, however, and strangely enough, it was right in my own line of business. Every morning the milkman-ny own man-would wake me up just as had fallen asleep, exhausted by a night of insomnia.
 q heard his wagon stop. I h,ard the springs creak as he stepped to the ground. The bottles clinked as he car ried them. His footballs seemed ele- phantine as he crossed the porch and thumped the bottles down, and then stalked back, the empty bottles clinking in his hand One morning I missed the milkman's coming and woke to find that he had come and gUns and I had slept soundly through it all. This was so mysterious that I insti- tuted an investigation and learned that the man had himself caught a fearful cold the day befors and that morning wore rubbers to keep his fe5t dry. It flashed upon me that all milkmen should always wear rubbers.
 As I lay there I thought out scheme for the relief of the great mass of peo- pie who want to enjoy the luxury of a sound nap in the morning I bought rubbers for the four men who delivered milk for me. I did more. I put rubber tires on my milk wagons. Better still, I put rubber shoes on my horses. Then I furnished every one of my customers with one of those rubber mats such as

you see there on the cigar dealers show case to keep the coin from scra tching the glass. These they put out on their porches to prevent the thump of the milk bottles as the milk man set them Sown. I advertised in the papars and by circulars the vir- tues of Holling5weTtll $ Pure Noiseiess Milk.'
 I made it understood that my msn must noe whistle. sing or shout while delivering milk. Two men who violat- ed this rule were discharged.
 You never saw such results. When it gradually. became known that I sold noiseless milk my old customers began to come back to me.
 "The ingenuity of the idea excited general approval, and even after the novelty of the thing had worn off. and one or two rivals had stopped ridicul- ing my rubber system of delivering milk and had themselves begun to inn itate my nlsthods, I kept my trade. It had become @ matter of spontaneous gratitude. Everybody took HoIlings- worth's milk because he had been good to them and introduced something to meet a long felt want. t.''-Washington Star.

 Miss Munro drove the coach to Or ange on Thursday through the most picturesque part of New Jersey. Thence homeward the trip was made by easy sta ges. Only three relays of horses were used, the last being put in at Red Bank.
 Miss Munro was congratulated by all her friends. Not the slightest accident marred the pleasure of the trip. Miss Munro accomplished the feat of driv- ing four-in-hand for five days without feeling the least fatigue.

eating shake of the head, cant say that I like that 'Arizony pay any too well. Ain't enough action in it: Lots O chances fur gun play, seems to me, but they don't kinder get into it socn enough to suit me. Three or four times durin' the evening I reached for my gun to take a hand in the game, but the last thing Bill Hunt told me fore l left the ranch was to be sure and not pack a gun in NOo York. Said they ar rested fellers here for carryil' 'em. Ever hear O sich nonsense?
 Hadn't been to any theaters 'ce9t variety ones since I struck the town. The nane 'A1izony' sorter socnded homeiike, so l went in expectin' to See a. roundup, p'raps a little shootin, and lots o'singin' and Gancin'.
 Two fellers war a-sittin at a table whcn-I went in. One of 'em had sojer clothes on an was called 'kurnel.' The other let on he was boss O the ranch. He wlrn't. though; TO siree. His wife hadn't said ten words fore anyone could see she war the bell horse O the corral. Jawed him just because he drank a julep. Twasn't a real one at NA4S'N O-llN d lOl O ltdNeS III q SljS-
 Well, the old man and the pier got to tallin' bout a gal-the old man s daughter. She was married to the so- jer but she didn't seem particularly happy. l took it she was kinder tired of steady diet O bacon and beans, an was pinin for a change. Then in come more sojers-on a visit, l reckon. They made themselves to home right off, 'fpecially a young lieutenant and a cap'n. With them was the boss's other daughter. Q pretty little hCifer. She and the lieutenant Wuz powerful sweet on each other, that wuz plain. The lieutenant and the cap'n didn't seem 10 be overly fond O one another, and I began to srsll gun play.
 Then l seen what war the trouble atWeen em. The captain was sweet on the kurnels wife and the lieutenant was onter him. They growled at each other a bit. an l wuz dead sure the shootin' war about to begin, but nary enc mace a move to pull a gun.
 Next time the curtain went up we war at the army post. The capn CCaxed the kurnel's wife to run off with him, and she gin him bag O diamonds to pay fire ght. The lieutcA- ant got onto the game and ,alled the captain Gown proper He had his gun in his hand an l says to myself, Heres s where the game opens But nary q rop. The captain swallowed it ali. Had tp. l reckon. cause he didn't 'p>ar to have a gun. The young fellcr took away the bag O almonds and made the captain sneak.
 Then back cCIes the kurnel and catches the young lieutenant in the

room. Mother good chance for shoot ing was skipped. The kurnel puts the young feIler under arrest, finds the almonds on him, and makes him quit the army. Pretty tough on the young ster cause he wouldn't bla5 and give the kurners wife away.
 'Weil, the young Teller goes to the ranch and gets a jcb punchin' cattle. Purity slick at the business, I reckon, for the boss gives him half interest in the cattle and throws in his daught- CT to boot Don't see why the young feller wears 'shaps' about the ranch, though. They're durn uncomfortable things 'cept when you're ridin', and then they're powerful hot. What's S shaps?' Why them leather leggins. Only use 'em goin' through brush coun- try to keep thorns outen your legs. Packs a gun round the raEich, too. That ain't natural.
 "Purty soon the cap'n and some of the other sojers come in. The cap'n's dead sore on the young faller for breakin' up his elopin' game, so he queers him with the folks by hintin' that the lieutenant didn't quit the army in a regular way. When the young fel- Ter hears O that he swats the cap'n in the face with his sombrero and reaches for his gun.
 Just then a Mexican jumps into the game and shoots the cap'n. Had a grudge against him for flirtin' with the Mexican's gal. The young feller's gun went off at the same time, but I was a watchin' and saw he had it pointed straight at the floor. Got nervous, l reckon, and pulled the trigger by mis- take. The cap'n was hard hit and they toted him into the ranch. In there he tells the folks that the young feller shot him. 1 knCwed that wasn't so and started to tell them it was the Mexican what done the shootin', but an old cod ger 1ongs.de O me asked me if I didn't know I was in a theayter.
 Things looked purity blue for the young feller when the doctor digs out the bullet and finds it don't fit the lieu tenants gun. Then they try to make out it was the Mexicans gal what done the shootin'. So the Mexican ups and says as how he done it and then scratched gravel and got away They could "a dropped him, but under the circumstances nobody cared to shoot All hands made up after that, and there was a general huggin' match tc wind up the show.
 Now that kind O play actin may be all right for some people, but 'taint right to call it 'Arizony,' and make cowpuncheTs think they're goin' to see the real thing. There wasn't but one horse in the play, and he didn't get far huff on the stage to snow his points. There wasn't a drop O Ticker in the whole show 'cept the julep, and nary a C3nce. Didn't see even a lariat and not q bronco busted the whole time. There was a heap O talk about cattle but I couldn't see a horn-don't even know the ranch brand or ear mark.
 Strong drammer? With not even a lynchin' nor an Indian fight? Didn't hear one good old cowpuE-her yell the whole time. May be a strong drammer for some folks, but it was purity tame for ne' and the cowboy went off in disgust.

THE EMPRESS OF CHINA
Described By the President of Pekin
 University.

The I,ev. Dr. W. A. ?. Martin, prcsi-
 Gont of the Imperial university at Pe- kin, who, after aiding in the defense
 of the legations at Pek;n, arrived in New York last week, sad today, in an interview. that the empress Gowager was, above all o,hers, responsible for
 the Boxer uprising. He described the
 character of Efle empress dowagar as follows:
 "The empress dowager. who is now exc rc!sing a regency for the third time,
 is undoubtedly one of the great women Of the world. It is unnecessary t0 com pare her with Elizabeth of England or
 Catherine II Of Russia, as has been done. When a ncrs exact parallel has been found in Lhe Samaritan Jezebel, who slaughtered the prophets of God. As to her origin, she never was, as a groun1less fiction mak5 S her out D have been, a Canton slave girl presented to the emperor by one of his tartar gen. era.s. On the contrary her family is known in Pekin as belonging TO the mo-
 bility. Her brother Duke Chow, pass cd off the stage recently. Her sister married the seventh scn of the 1mper-
 or Tao Kwang, and became the mother of the present emperor, Kwang Su.

 Five years after this suspicious event the English and French march I

 The twp expresses returned to Psxin at the restoration of peace, and formed
 a jc:rIc r. gency under the guidance of
 the late Prince KunS. The young son
 of Tsc Hsi, an infant of six years, was
 then proclaimed emperor under the ti- , tie of Tung Che, which in allus:on .o
 the joint regency, signifies 'assccflted

 quent the s-n.or empress died, and Tse

 her regency merely nominal. During

MONEY IN NOIsELEss MILK
Clever Idea That Solved the Getting
 Rich Problem for One Man.

Among the guests at the Arlington this week was Theodore Hollingsworth, of the Mohawk vallsy, N. Y, a tall, dignified gentleman, middic-aged, and looking like d New England college professor. Yet, nevertheless and not withstanding, I am a milkman," said MT. Hollingsworth. You have heard the anecdote of Pitt the younger, who, when a boy. was asked what he should be when he grew up. and said in reply: I suppose I shall have to be lord chan cellor, but I would like to be d cab man. That fits me. My father was a big lawyer and wanted me tO be one. But I read Blackstone only long enough to tell felony from a misde- meanor. I threw down law books and went out on one of the beautiful farms south of the Mohawk and began serious life as a farm hand at SIP a month.
 I have been at it now over forty years and last week We took an inven- tory of what I am worth and l wrote my will. The appraisers, good neigh Eors of mine, noted locally for their horse sense, decided that my farm, live stock and bank stock, nct1s and mort gages and varous evidences of things mine were worth $265,000.
 That's pretty good for a milkman, isn't it? I began farming for myself in 1862 and succeeded from the start. I did things the old way-raising good cows, hauling out manure cutting sev- eral barns full of hay every summer and running a milk wagon the year ,f it was sled. I delivered my milk my self, dressed in long red wool leggins, big sheep-hn, q shoes and a buffalo overcoat. We had no bottle business in those days. Every milk wagon was flaming red and everybody's milk had to be dipped up with a long tin dippsr out of the tall, heavy cans and poured into a rail or pitcher that was left out over night at the kitchen door. II was cold business some times, and yet there was good money in it.
 After the war th5re were d good many eX-soldiers trying to get back into business and competition began to reduce my profits. For several years it was a close, hard struggle. l had the advantage of a good start, a fine farm all paid for, and fair business sense. I developed the purest herd of Jerseys money, time and knowledge of breeding could produce. But this did not win the battle. About that time the silo came along and I built a fine ona and was able to put down feed enough for my 150 cows for eight months of the year. It made things look better, but the little mlkmen crowded me still. I learned that Ayrshires would yield more milk than Jerseys, and I got rid of the pr tty herd of Jerseys and built up a big one of Ayrshires, I got a

BLOOD

We live by cur blood, and on 1t. We thrive or starvc, as cur blood is rich or poor.
 There is nothing else to live oH a- by.
 When strength is full and spirits high, we are being re- lreshcd, bone muscle and brain, n body and mind, with con- unual flow of rich blood. This IS health.
 When weak, in low spirits, no cheer, no spring, when rest is not rest and sleep is not sleep, we are starved; our blood Is poor; there Is little nutri- ment in 1t.
 Back of the blood, is food, to keep the blood rich. When 1t fails, take Scott's emulsion of cod-liver oil. It sets the whole body going again-man woman and child.
 We'll send you little to try, fl you like. SCOTT 6 BOVINE, 4o9 Pearl street, New York.

New York Girls Five Days Coaching
 Trip With a Four-in-Hand.

Trip With Four-in-Hand.
 With leaders gayly prarcing Miss Norma L. Munro's four spirited bays dashed into Norwood park at Long Branch Saturday afternoon. This end cd the last stage of a coaching trip which lasted five days and was unique in the history of the sport.
 Miss Munro net only enjoys the good fortune to be heiress to ten million collars, but she is an accomplished sr5fLswcman. Notwithstanding her de- votion to art and literature, she finds much time for yachting and field sports. Above all, she is an enthusias- tic hors5 woman. An accident last spring resulted in fracture of her left wrisl, but the break did not keep her long away from her favorite sports. Soon shc was driving as much and as skillfully as ever.
 Miss Munro began her latest ccach- ing trip lazt Tuy sday with six guests. Fresh horses were put in at Flights town, and Princeton was reached at
