Hong Kong, Oct. ia column of
troops was dispatched this morning to the
kowloon frontier with the object of bar
ring armed refugees, either rebels or i'm
perial troops, from entereing British terri
tory when defeated. The rebels are re-
ported to be 5000 strong 30 miles north Of
the British frontier. A thousand of Ad-
mirals Hos troops are in pursuit of them,
while 1000 Chinese troops have left Can
ton overland to intercept the rebels.
Admiral Ho has informed the govern.
ment that the rebellion was carefully
planned. The rebels are anxious to con
cliate the villagers and gain the respect
Of foreigners, hence the absence of out
rage and pillage. All indications point to
the rising being widespread. Outbreaks
occurred simultaneously in several centers
Of Kwang- tung and Kwang-si. Apparent
ly Kang-wei, Kun-sun and the triads have
amalgamated their force in the common
cause.-The overthrow Of Manchu rule in
south China. Some positive indication OF
the attitude of the foreign powers is
lnxiously awaited.
Answers to France.
Paris, Oct. l6.-Germany is the only
power which has not replied formally to
Frances note on China, though she has
verbally accepted its terms.
Japan's answer, received today, accepts
the proposals, retaining only one condi-
ton. This refers to the permanent pro-
hibition OF the importation of arms While
agreeing with the. principle, Japan offers no
suggestion as to how the prohibition can
best be accomplished.

ready for use when the mansion was
ready to be occupied. The plan met
with the Counts approval, and the
vine was stored away in the stone
vaults, where it was intended to stay
until the small palais de Versailles
was completed Not long after this it
was noticed by the small wine deal
ers on the Avenue Malakoff that the
m2sons at work on the building were
not coming for their customary after
noon "demi boutelle," and of this they
complained bitterly. When their
grievance became known the reasop
for this falling off in the wine trade
about the Castellane mansion was dis
covered. The workmen had found out
that the best wine cellar in France
lay just beneath their feet, and had
made a hole in the masonry, through
which, with the help of a long rod,
they fished up the bottles, one by one.
Fortunately for Count Boni de Cas-
tellance the theft was discovered in
time to save some good wine for the
house warming.

The One at Portsmouth Was Founded a

land was in 1900 purchased by the gov

Gated the purchase of suitable sites for
navy yards at Portsmouth, n. H.. Bos-
ton, New York, Philadelphia, Norfolk,

for the frigate, might be used for the

quite convenient for all purposes Of a

for $4,000, and believing 1t the truest

To be buried with pomrA I'd cere-
mony is the lifelong am " on of a
Japanese. The higher the ran the
greater the display. When the en-
press doWager died in 1897 no less than
$780, 600 was appropriated from the
national treasury. The ceremonies oc-
cupied several weeks, as they were
conducted according to ancient usage.
Writing from Yokohama, a traveller
gives the following account of a typi-
cal, ~up-to-date, high-class funeral: A
few days ago the funeral of a lady of
the higher class in Toxic was attend
ed by a vast c~oncOurse Of people AMI
with a large expenditure of money.
Large edifces were erected neal the
family vault for the mourners. The
service was chanted by fifty Buddhist
priests. the principal of whom pro-
nounced a warm ard sympathetic ora
tion in memory OF the deceased lady,
whose noble character had won uni
versal esteem. Last week, while out in
a jinrikisha. We saw a great c~oncourse
of people assembled in front OF a silk
store, and learned that one of the firm
had died, and this was his funeral. We
hurried on and took a position near a
bridge hat led TO the temple. First
in the procession came a body of men
in gray tunics. These were followed
by a great number of Japanese in their
silken robes, hat set off their fine, in
telligent faces. Then came the priests,
with their shaver heads, over which
men carried large red Japanese para
soils. After these a company of men
with a queer h~ead-coVering OF ssraw,
like an inverted bread basket, carrying
in their hands sprigs of paper lotus.
About midway In the procession was
the bier, made of implanted wood and
covered with royal purple drapery and
borne on the shoulders of eight men,
the mourners, on foot, looking like SO
many girls going to Their first COM
munion, as they were dressed in white,
with white wells and carrying in their
hands dishes of rice, fish and fruit.

cellar full from year to year. The
bride, be it understood, is a special
wine casi, filled with the first run
ming Of the press. More accurately it
holds the juice which drips away be-
fore any pressure is applied. Wine
from it is never sold, but used upon
high days and holidays, passed about
rs a gift, or devoted to the comfort
OF the sick and the poor. Something
akin to the bride exists in the German
free cities. Each of them has a wine
cellar, and in each cellar there is a
cask always yielding wine, but never
empty. Any burgher is entitled to a
bottle of its contents when he marries,
when his first son is chrlstened, and
also when the son is twenty-one. If
the son is adventurous, or the burgher
himself, for that matter, he gets an
other bottle from the cask when he
comes home from far countries. But
there is an official specially charged
to see that wherever a bottleful is
drawn out another bottleful OF as rear
as possible the same quality at once
goes in. And thus it happens that the
city cask is never empty.

Brought 1t on Themselves.

1t has often been remarked by Am
erican visitors to the British house of
commons that women are practically
excluded from witnessing the proceed
ings of that body and this fact is taken
as an evidence Of the backwardness OF
truth is, however, that the discrimin-
alton against women grew out of their
own misbehavior. In former days they
were admitted to all parts of both
houses wherever there was room to be
found. In 1879. however, during an
interesting debate, the speaker made
an order that all strangers should
withdraw. The house was overflow
ing with women at the time, and a
ridiculous scene ensued because they
unanimously refused to go, resisted,
fought and protested loudly when the
attendants tried to make them. They
had to be turned out one by one, and,
as this had to be done with as little
violence as possible, the affair took
four hours to effect, during the whoIe
of which time there was such n noise
of voices and rustling of dresses that
the business of the house had to be
suspended till the women were gone.
To avoid a repetition of this scene the
commons passed an order excluding
feminine visitors from the actual body
of the house.

AIMING the NldOFlS OF new Zentanu.
At sunset one evening we sauntered
into a Maori village, and found our
selves in the grassy Enclosure wherein
sat the tribe eating its evening meal.
Some natives might have resented our
invasion. Not so the Maoris. With
unaffected pleasure they beamed upon
us; many brown hands were out
stretched to grasp ours, and tattooed
lips, in hospitable if quite unintelligi-
BILE language, invited us to partake.
Round two large dishes the entire par
ty or men, women, girls, youths and
babes were squatted, and it was inter-
esting to see that in this tribal COM
mune the smallest child had evidently
as much right to put his paw in the
dish and help himself as had his eld-
ers. In a pool of gravy in a tin pan
lay a large ham bone at which an in
f,nt was picking, but the chief provi-
sion lay in a great pie dish full Of
kumaras (sweet potatoes), and some
green vegetable. In addition, there
was a splendid loaf of bread, round,
fiat, nicely Drowned, and closely re-
sembling a huge wheaton scone. The
method of cooking was primitive, but
apparently efficient. Catching the
glimmering of freight in one of the
larger huts we entered and found that
it proceeded from some glowing wood
ashes on the floor. Over the embers
were set iron bars which formed a
rude grill, wherein was placed a l"Sge
tin pan containing another loaf. N~.le
a third still in the dough state stood
on the floor ready for baking.-Black-

Food for Birds.

Food in winter and lodging in sum-
mer may be provided for a great mum
Der of birds in a very simple way.
You only have to buy a few cocoa
nuts, cut off the ends, like taking the
top off an egg, which can easily be
done with a sharp chisel and a mallet,
bore holes through the sides, put a
string through and knot it, and then
hang the cocoanut from a creeper or
a bough. Thus for a few cents you
can provide food for birds for weeks
or months. Last winter our cocoanuts
were seldom let alone for many mo-
ments. Birds swarmed on them, low
ering themselves down by the string,
and, at last, when confidence was
quite established, flying straight in.
They worked away at them from early
morn till dewy eve When all the nut
is eaten the shells make excellent
nesting-places, and will probably be
taken possession of by the same birds
that hollow them out, if the shells are
left out through the summer. In this
way both board ana lodging are pro-
vided on most reasonable terms, with
no extras. In the hardest weather the
food supply is always available, and II
you are away from home for a few
days you know the birds will not be in
want.
