SNAKE STOPS q,ELEGKaMs

A snake caused the telegraph operators on the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad much trouble last Sunday afternoon, says Vinita, l. T., telegram. The operators especially between Vinita and Adair eX- perienced much trouble with the wires be- tween these two points, and messages were interfered with when sent, and a lineman was, therefore, sent out to investigate the cause, and discovered something new in the way of telegraph service on railroads.
 A large snake four feet long had crawled up a telegraph pole and fastened its tail around the top wire and wound another part of its body around lower wire, and ill this way got out about four feet from the pole, where it continued to swing on the wires.
 The snake, after having hung there for some time, was electrocuted, but still hung to the wires, forming circuit for the cleo tricity and when a message was sent it went as far as the snake and passed through him to the other wire and returned, making the circuit complete and cut off the two towns from telegraphic communication by these two wires.

Division of China.

Instead of the 1ismemberment of China to the aggrandizement of European na- lions, it may be the vexed problem will be settled by division of the country by the Chinese themselves. There are not wanting signs that the great viceroys in the central and southern provinces of the empire are much inclined to throw off Tartar rule The Chinese and the Tartars are hereditary en- emies. The latter came from the north, from districts beyond the Great Wall Pekin is a creation of the Tartars It is the northern capital, distinguished from Marking, which was for centuries the capital of the country before the Tartar invasion.
 Ii the Chinese successfully rise against the Tartars, the world will be the gainer, for exclusive ideas are essentially of Tar tar origin. The Chinese are born mer- chants, and they would be glad to trade with all countries They are not unpro- gressive. We have been judging them by the acts of their Tartar, rulers and op- pressors Prince Tuan is Tartar, but he
 
 best sentiment of China proper The an cient empire undoubtedly possesses many conceits and many prejudices, but the CIinese, if left to themselves, free from Tartar influences, would trade round the world. They are the merchants of the East. They would be glad to obtain foot hold in every country, and for that purpose would not long oppose the opening of their own land to trade.
 The problem is very large and very diff ficult, and it's limits are by no means de- fined. If too much pressure is not applied from outside sources, China may solve it herself, and the real China be preserved 10 the Chinese. The Tartars may be hand cd over to Russia and Japan, and the Chi nese proper will be happy in the riddance. The Tartars live, as a rule, north of the Yellow river, which may yet become the northern boundary of new and better China.

CALyE TRACKED THE QUEEN
The S5,OOO Wager Back of Prima Donn s
 Appearance at Windsor

From the New York Journal.
 London.-All London is aghast over the impudence of the only Emma Calve. It appears that she has gold bricked' no less a parsonage than Queen Victoria for the double purpose of winning a unique honor and a big wager
 After the performance of "Carmen" by the Covent Garden Opera Company before the Queen at Windsor Castle Wednesday, night, Calve remained over night in the castle as the Queens guest. The rest of the company, including Impressario Grau, were sent back to town by special train. No singer ever stayed over night at the castle before, it being a fixed rule that they always leave the same night as they ap pear While the Queen is always most gracious to artists she has always drawn the line at having them as her guests, con- sequently there was much surprise at the exception made in the case of Mime. Calve. The reason given was that, as the great Carmen had cold, Her Majesty would not permit her to risk the night journey back to town.
 Everybody applauded this new manifes- tation of the sovereign's graciousness, and Calve was congratulated on all hands. Now it appears that the graceless Calve made a bet recently with Alfred Rothschild of flo ($50) against f1,000 05,0O0 that she would sleep at Windsor Castle. When the Queens command for a performance of Carmen" came to MT. Grau, it was neces- sary to have Calve, of course, in her great role But she pleaded severe cold, even declining to appear at Covent Garden for several performances. Finally information discreetly directly conveyed to Her Majesty that loyalty had drawn the prima donna from a bed of sickness; that the great donna had been induced to defy her doctors solely to sing before the Queen, although the dangers of the night journey back to town were great. The result was an invitation from the Queen for Calve to sleep in the castle Now courier who procured that invitation demands a com mission on the wager won from Baron -Rothschild and the whole matter is likely to become public.

Exclusiyeness to the Limit.

Exclusiveness in a club is it's very es- highly it is valued, and the city of Cleve- land comes forward with a new club that takes the persimmon in that respect It is an appendicitis club and instead of show ing documents and armoral bearings dat ing from the flood or colonial days the ap- plicant for membership discloses his scar. The high-grade members in it are those that have two scars, for some acquire the operation habit and are periodically knifed.
 This exclusive club of all clubdom is also scientific well literary. All clubs are something on paper; and Cleveland's ap- pendfcitis club is keeping step to the cus- tomary club pretense. common bond, well as nearly common scars is to draw the members together, evolving so to speak, spirit of contempt for all who have not had the fashionable complaint and have not resorted to the surgeons table.
 Until the surgeons knife appears on an argent field in a crest, the test of member ship, it is said, will depend upon the pronunciation of the magic word "appen- .dicitis." Only those who use the long "e' and the long ii" will be admitted. This comes from the use of long knife, and the long knife has introduced to the club world new lot of long-green rlutocrats that propose to settle at once at the top of the club ladder Some are not in club able condition, because the surgeons gath cred in all of their available wealth, but the remainder are rallying to the new standard, and appendicitis clubs are to be formed in every ambitious and swell town

very awkward The policy of the admin istratinn is to disfavor dismemherment of China and to favor "the open door, but events are perhaps rendering it's scheme imperative. If the legation has been merci- lessly slaughtered by the Boxers, and if the de facto government has declared against America as well as the other pow CTS, then Secretary Hays plan is mis- at, and Congress must be convened, unless indeed the administration is prepared to as- sert that it is 'the whole thing" the con- sttutlon to the contrary notwithstanding The audacity of Republication is very great, but at the present time 1t will not be likely to enter upon another war with out Congressional sanction.
 The administration has no possible con stitutonal right to say that it will march upon Pel1in alongside the other nations in order to obtain reparation for injuries done, for such action would be aggressive war, there being nothing at Pekin to defend, If present reports be substantiated Hereto
 
 the right to conduct defensive war; it remains to be seen what it will do in case offensive war is substituted by the other powers.
 Congress, says the constitution, shall de- clare war. No line in the fundamental law of the republic-none of the enumerated powers-justify President Mckinley and Secretary Hay in committing this country to a war that would cost valuable Ameri- l can lives, and that may lead to the loss of more ships than the Oregon If the Presi- dent can declare war, the republic is in- deed changed and an ambitious and auda- cious President could under one pretense or another readily complete the transfor- nation.
 The constitutional right vested in Con- gress 10 declare war includes of course the l right of judging whether the nation is or is not under obligation to make war. Con l gress, and Congress alone, possesses the discretion to decide when the United States l has cause for going to war. Congress and l Congress alone can appropriate money to 1 carry on war. The President alone can l carry on a war declared by Congress- The President and the Senate alone can end a war constitutonally begun. Action other than this is usurpation wholly unwarranted l by the constitution, and the country is actually on the verge of such an usurDa- 1 ton.

SAVED Ills LIFE BY WRESTLING

From the St. Louis Republic.
 Danbury, Conn.-Henry Fitch, young farmer living at Mountain End, invited death for himself and his two oxen the other day by whistling.
 Young Fitch is a whistler of much abil- ity. He has whistled at every farmhouse and every gathering in the neighborhood, and when he is whistling nobody cares to listen to piano, violin, fiute guitar or banjo.
 The other day Fitch was blowing in his field-plowing and whistling. Two Sleek, sleepy oxen were drawing the blow, and neither they nor Fitch paid any attention to nything but the blowing and the whist ling
 Presently a swarm of thousands of honey bees hovered over them. There was no use to run-still less to fight them, and Fitch simply kept whistling and blow ing, while the bees settled softly upon him and the oxen. They seemed friendly enough as long as Fitch whisted, and Fitch ad- mits that he was willing to whistle as long as they remained friendly, and seemed in- clined to listen.
 Fitch continued to blow along. His patch led toward his home, where he could see his mother in the yard He caught the tails of the oxen and held them so the beasts might not anger the bees by switch ing them. For the distance of half a mile he held those two oxtails and whistled
 His mother looked up and saw him. He and his oxen looked like they might be covered with a soft brown fur. Fitch stopped whistling just long enough to shout "Bees," and then continued his team with out the bees, realizing that he had dropped a note.
 Mrs Fitch acted at once She knows something of bees, and realized that unless she got them hived in short order they would probably sting her son to death. For she argued that he could not keep on whistling forever.
 So she got huge tin pan and began beat ing it vigorously The bees stirred uneasily they did not sting and after few minutes, every of them rose in the air land started toward the tin pan, Mrs. Fitch led the way to an empty hive that had luckily been prepared for another swarm and by dint of much beating and coaxing got all the bees into it. ff 'tl
 Fitch stopped whistling, sat down flat oxa the ground and mopped his face. The sleek, lazy oxen switched their tails vigorously to make up for lost time. ,.

MAUD AND THE CENSUS MAN

From the Denver Post. Again did Maud on summer day Go forth to rake some additional hay A figure came riding along the lane, And she said: Its that beastly judge
 again!
 'I1I tell him to chase himself, for he Fatigues me too quite eXceSsively!'' As she stood and leaned on her well-worn
 rake
 She saw she had made a slight mistake. The fellow was young and handsome, and Possessed of figure to beat the band. He drew book from his saddlebag And slid down off his perspiring nag. "Your name,'' he said, land your place of
 birth:
 Are your parents yet on or off the earth? Have you had the humps? Are your teeth
 your own,
 Or made to order? All right; self grown. "Do you think that Sappho would, as
 rule,
 Be fit to play in a Sunday school? Did any ancestors, shes or males, Have fits or boils or ingrowing nails? Are you single or double and are you shy Offspring, and if so, please state why? "Do you ride a wheel, and how do you
 wear
 Your skrtings, divided or solitaire? 'Is your hair self-cultured, or is it 'aueer?' What size of feet do you wear this year," All these pert questions and many more He fired at the girlie with gall galore. And Maudie parried each pointed quiz With the answer: Its none O your bloom
 in biz!''
 At last he gazed in her seal-brown eyes With piercing look of unusual size And said: Now your answer must be true As the law and gospel: How young are
 you?'
 And Maud replied in modest way: '1ll be IS on my next birthday Then the quizzer sucked at his fountain And saucily told her to guess again." And Maude pouted and tossed her head And sweetly cackled That's on the dead" Come off" he grunted. "Old Whittier
 wrote
 Of you when the ark was yet afloat! 'I1e told in rhyme of that worn old rake When Eve performed with her circus
 snake!'
 And Maudie answered: Don't get so raw! That Whittier gal was my great-grandma! !! "Go chase yourself from this field, you
 chump Or I'll comb your hair with the rake, Now
 jump!'
 He jumped, and boarded his horse and sped
 Down the dusty lane and sobbingly said: "Of all tough jobs since the world began, The toughest is held by the census man."
