CHINESE MANDARINS
They Are Moi Persons of St.
 prGme Importance
They Are as Thick in China as Hon orables in Washington or Colonels in the State of Kentucky-Stes ing as a Fine Art.

| Washington, Aug. 3.-Mandarins are as thick in China as honorables in Washington or colonels in Kentucky. People who read about mandarins are , apt to gain an exaggerated idea of the position when they occupy in Chinese ofIicialdom. The attributes of the av- craze manda in make him fit material for comic opera composition.
 The importance and salary of the mandarin depends largely upon his ability to peculate deXterously. He re- duces to a science the art of minimizing the amount of public funds that es- cape his greedy fingers.
 Practically every civil servant of the Chinese government is a mandarin
 His salary may approximate $5 d month, but he is a mandarin just the same. The s mandarins are usually petty officials who have just passed their first examinations and secured ddmiGsion 10 the ninth, or lowest class of the government employees. PrOvid- ing he is not indecently VOra ciOus he rises through the succeeding classes un- til he reaches the sixth division. Then he commences t. be a person of some importance.
 Mandarins of the sixth clasc are civil magistrates. to be obeyed and respected accordingly. Plaintiffs and defendants seek his good offices. It is to their in terest. He wears a pure white quartz button. Tie higher the mandarin the more valuable the button.
 By making puninhments fit crimes on a strictly cash basis he gains the fifth class and the right to have his button made of transparent crystal. Thence it is easy to progress to the fourth class and f" the dignity of T turquoise button. Most mandarins stop in the fifth class. Before they may go further a severe examination must be passed. The scv5rity of the examination varies with the ability of the candidate to luhricate the path Of his ambition with gold.
 If he has the pIicc the Mandarin reaches the exclusive circle uf the third class. His button, still blue, becomes transparent, like amethyst. From thence upward it is case of the sur vival of the fittest. If chicanery, bribery, shrewGness and cringing serve Q he may be endowed with the right to adorn his cap with a carved red coral huttnn and is entrusted with the gov ernorship of one of the great cities.
 Upon the good will of the reigning monarch depends his chances of pro- motion to the highest class. This office is the direct gift of the ruler. The but ton is a plain, smooth orb of red coral. If a mandarin of the first class is deemed worthy of unusually exalted honors the title of ''kung." which cor responds to a dukedom, is conferred upon him. This title, iustead of de- scending from father to son, is q retro . grade distinction, in that it ennobles all Of the possessor's ancestors. The tile dlrs with the holder.

for their prOduction-that is when everything else is approximately regu- lated. Of course if a farmer buys water at a high price and don't get it, then has nothing to sell, he is loser But if the water supply was ample and as Sured so crops were always large, the expense of production could not eX- ceed the selling price, however low. with any sort of management. And if this valley were so situated it would not be long till more railroads would head this way and new markets be opened up. I have never yet heard of a country that went bankrupt by the overproduction of its farmers. Then, too, stock raising and pasturing here is hand in hand with farming. It is q good business and I believe will be better as the years go by. The demand grows better every year as the meat eating population increases. On the other hand, the ranges are giving way to the blow and where thousands of cattle were once raised for market only hundreds are now produced. I never expect to see the price of cattle as low in the future as it has been in the past"

PITTSBURG TUNNEL EXPLORED.

PittsburS. Pa, Aug s.-The tunnel that was dug into the Riverside peni- tentiary was explored it's full length this evening to it's outlet in the prisoE yard. The tunnel, following all it's windings. is 290 feet long, two and q half feet wide and two and a quarter feet high. It begins in the cellar of ;L house, passes underneath a forty-foot street and follows the wall under an other street for 20 feet, and extet,ds ten feet under tn: wall. It ends in a shaft and right underneath a solitary flag stone lying on the ground near the prison rockpile. By lifting the stone and lowering it again over his head q prisoner could have escaped.
 It is supposed that the intended ben- eiiciary of the plot was informed of the location of the outlet, but was un- able to profit by his knowledge. En- gineers say the passage was laid out by an engineer who woCld be worth a salary of $10,0O0 year in a legitimate business, and was dug by trained tun- mel men, and that the work would cost, if let by contract, $3,00O. It has net yet been learned who the plotters intended to deliver from prison.
