THE MANCHU DYNASTY.

j. S. Tucker, of Washington, in an
article in the New York Sun, notes the
interesting coincidence that the Man
chu dynasty in China owes its origin
IN part to the murder of an ambas-
sador in the early part Of the seven
teenth century. In 1913 Noorhachu,
prince Of the Manchu tribe Of Tartars,
declared war against Waulch, of the
the Ming dynasty, then emperor OF
Of China In the proclamation issued
by the Tartac Prince setting forth his
reasons for making war on the Chinese
it was stated that the latter had muir
dered his ambassador. In the course
Of this war the Tartars captured the
capital of the Chinese province of Ii
Outing. The garrison was massacred
and the inhabitants of the town were
required to shave their heads in token
of submission to their conquerors. In
his history of China Boulger says that
this is the first historical reference to
a practice which is now universal in
China and that has become what may
be called a national characteristic. All
that is known of the origin of the pig
tail is that it was first enforced as a
badge of subjugation by the Manchus
and was made the one condition of i'm
munity from massacre. Since the con-
quest of China, nearly 800 years ago,
the Manchus and the Chinese have re-
manned quite distinct. The principal
cities are garriso1ied by Manchu regi-
ments, in which no Cinnamon are al
! lowed to serve On the other hand,
! the armies composed Of Chinese have
some Manchus serving with them. Ac-
cOrding to Lord Beresford, whose re-
| cent work on China is quoted by Mr..
| Tucker, the armies about Pekin are
nearly all commanded by Manchu
/ princes. Prince Tuan, who is alleged
| to have usurped authority at Pekin, is
a Manchu. Lii Hung Chang, who has
| been summoned to the capital, is a
! -blooded Chinaman, and by some
authorities is regarded as the ablest
! statesman in the empire. In Mr..
! fuckers opinion the Manchu princes
are the Bourbons of China. They have
ruled so long over the empire that
they have become impatient Of any iu-
reference from the outside world. AL
though the Manchus are Outlanders
they have raised the issue of China
! fer the Chinese" The recent efforts
Of European nations to secure parts OF
the territory Of China have alarmed
than for the security of the en- Dirp in
which they themselves are largely a
foreign element. In order to retain the
control which they won with the
sword the Manchus have now adopted
a policy which would have excluded
them from China in the seventeenth
century if the Chinese had been strong
enough to enforce the doctrine.

fact that many women clerks in the
| government departments at Washing
/ ton are at this time made anxious re-
garding their places, even though they
are nominaily protected by the civil
service. Many Of these women are ex-
perts, but as they hold no votes N the
states TO which their appointments are
accredited, politicians want their
| places badly in order to fulfil consti-
ton promises. When politica. constit-
| utents become threatening, then it is
| that women are selected as victims for
! political exchange. The bargain is
| often basely fulfilled except in cases
where the women incumben.s have
friends powerful enough to make their
places secure from political prey.
1t is claimed by men opposed to wo-
men having a chance to earn their
living. that women IN Offices are frivol-
Gus, babyish and irresponsible. There
are but few frivolous women among
those who are obliged to earn their
living. Poverty is q stern reprOver of
folly, and women who have no alter
native but to work for their bread and
for the bread Of those depending upon
them, should not be classed with the
butterfly women who seek places in
order that they may have extra money
to spend on adornments. If women in
offices are frivolous, babyish and ire
sponsible, it is because men have Sc
lected such from choice. The number
of competent, womanly women asking
for work is so vastly in excess of the
number of their frivolous sisters MAX
ing the same demand, that it is but
weak subterfuge for men to claim that
woman's work is necessarily incom-
petently performed.
Women are thankful that the de-
mand to turn them adrift without en-
ployment is far from being universal
among men. 1t is noticeable that
most of the babble comes from an
INSCRIPTIONS class of politicians, from
very young men whose judgment Is
not accepted as conclusive, and from
men who have outlived the years of
clear discernment. More and more of
the thoughtful class of conscientious
men are glad to have women given the
chance to fill good places and get the
pay for their services. These are
the men who are willing that women
should have an equal chance in the
world with their brothers, even to the
event Of protecting themselves with
the potent chivalry of the ballot.
The need for women to hold in their
own hands the power which goes with
the ballot is constantly becoming more
apparent. Women need the ballot
for their mental, moral and temporal
welfare. They need it most of all to
protect themselves against any posi-
bility that such conditions shall pre-
vail as would surely follow in the case
the recommendations of those should
be adopted which are frantically aGvo-
eating that women be debarred the
privilege of earning their bread

ventured to announce it, much less TO
comment upon it.
There are two kinds of morganatic
marriages, one in which the morgan
ate wife IS q real wife in every moral
sense. 5ut does no. enjoy rOyai rights
and privileges; the other in which the
wife is simply a legalized concubine.
The mOrganatic marriage of Ferdinand
seems to be Of the first kind. the mar
~iage Of the emperor is understood to
be Of the second. The day will come
when morganatic marriages will cease
10 be contracted, and emperors and
kings, like presidents and governors.
viii be permitted, if unmarried, to
marry the women they love. and, if
married will find the law prohibiting
bigamy as applicable to themselves as
to the humblest subject. The sentI-
ment that the king can do no wrong"
has in the past protected such immoral
sOvereigns, and. in a few instances,
notably that of Alexander II, emperor
of Russia, the church, of which he
was the official head has approved the
marriage, to the great scandal OF the
Christian world; but society will teach
such sovereigns that, if they would
have the respect and loyalty of their
subjects, it will not be because the
king can do no wrong" but because
the king does no wrong. North

ARITHMETIC BY CHINESE.

The Chinese rejoice in a wonderful
talent for inaccuracy in every detail.
For instance, a pound or pint varies
as it suits the merchants fancy. In
some parts you get half or quarter
as much as you do in others for the
same price and measure. Then, again,
their way of calculating distance does
not at all tally with Euclid. For in
stance, you are told from A to B is
four miles, but from B to \ is eight
miles If you ask how this is pos
stble you are told It depends from
which end you start; if you start from
\ it is down hill. so much easier to
walk; whereas, starting from B, you
have to walk up hill, which is much
more exerting and fatiguing-in fact,
it is the same as walking longer dis
lance on even ground. This form of
argument always amused me nearly as
much as the way the Chinese have Of
counting a persons age by tens. My
mother" they will tell you, is thirty"
Cor forty). When she leaves thirty she
is getting near forty. Should we all
like to be told that, wonder?

follow them. In size these mountain
sheep come next to the buffalo and elk,
says The Little Chronicle of Chicago,
in a most interesting article. They are
not light and graceful like the ante
lope, but they have such wonderful
strength in their iron muscles that
they can go up and down the sheeTest
cliff with perfect ease. They carry
their huge spreading horns on massive
heads and necks as proudly as deer.
No animal known can climb more diff
ficult places.
Governor Roosevelt has hunted the
big horn" and in his book Hunting
Trips of a Ranchman he devOtes a
chapter to it, describing how it bounds
down a precipice with never slip or
misstep. even on the narrowest ledge
when covered with ice and snow. The
lambs are born in May or June and
now is the best time to capture them,
for by October the little things, so
helpless now, will be able to go about
with their mothers.

down to the bottom of the mountain
canon to feed or drink, but at night or
on the slightest alarm, they are up and
away like rockets to the lOftiest peaks
and lodges. In color they are yellow
ish brown, and a herd of them at rest
look like powders. They are very
keen of sight and smell and hearing.
Mr.. Jones will not attempt to shoot
any of them but will try to capture the
lambs. For this purpose he has taken
pack of shepherd dogs which he has
muzzled and taught to hold the lambs
with their paws. A COW will be KEEP,
at the mountain cabin to furnish milk
for the captives. If Mr.. Jones is for
tunate enough to capture more than
the Smithsonian institute can care fol
he will sell the rest to stock public and
private parks. No attempt has been
made before to keep these animals in
captivity, so it is not known whether
| they can be made happy and healthy
! in the geological gardens.
