Magee's Lucky ThrnshinE,

San Francisco, Jan. 16.-There died
in this city yesterday John Magee. who
is credited with having turned the
guns of the two British men-of-war on
the city of Guatemala 25 years ago,
compelling the Guatemalan govern
ment to turn $50, 900 over to Mr.. Magee,
who at that time was acting as British
consul in that country. Magee incur
red the hatred Of Rufino Barrios, who
hired some thugs to thrash the consul.
The British government demanded
1000. and kept the warships' guns
trained on the city until it was paid.
Magee invested the $4,000 in paying
property, and died millionaire. Mr..
Magee arrived in this city from Paris,
en- route to Guatemala, on Jan. 6, and
was taken III. Ills family is in Paris.

PRIZES FOR BABIES.

There is an organization in Chicago
which, the Inter Ocean says, cannot be
duplicated in any other city in the
United States today, If, indeed, in the
world. 1t was started early last year,
with quiet little headquarters in one of
the busiest Office buildings on La Sale
street. 1t was properly chartered and
began life with this one motto: with
a mission and without a muzzle." IT

the certificate of the attending
physician, properly sworn to is all the
proof that is necessary to entitle the
mother to receive in 60 days sum not
to exceed $500. This amount is depen-
dent upon the assessment which is
made upon all members of 81 each.
The membership is limited to l 900
families, and as fast as one becomes
entitled to draw her due she is dropped
from the list and new candidate
taken in. The full quota of members
has been filed since last January.
Members must have belonged to the
society for one full year before they
are eligible to partake in it's benefits
So far there has been q assessments

CHINESE HOUSES.

In the four cities which make up the
capital, and particularly In the i'm
perial city, live most OF the leading
and opulent class, and therefore the
houses are of more important and
solid appearance than is the rule else
where. High brick walls, with a
single stone entrance, surround a
multitude of courts, fanked by the
rooted dwelling rooms. 1t is a curious
and universal custom among the
Chinese to put up Immediately FACING
the outer door a stone or brick screen,
bearing tablets or painted scrools in
scribed with the names OF ancestors
or classical texts. The object, accord
ing to time-honored superstition is to
entering knocks his head against tho
obstacle, and, being devout to all
sense but an elementary hatred of
mankind, is repulsed and goes away
sorrowful. Why the aforesaid demon
should have the cleyerness 10 turn In
at the gate, yet not sufficient to wheel
round the screen, Is difficult for the
uninitiated to understand. There is no
attempt at ostentation, or even OF
decent comfort, about these dwelling
places. Within they are mere ram
shackle bungalows, with stone-hagged
floors and paper windows, Realistically
cut up by wooden partitions and
papered without taste or cleanliness.
The furniture is polished wood made in
the stiff square style that is not un-
familiar Ornaments are few, and OF
the commonest make. while the bronze
vessels TO be seen are all modern and
coarse in workmanship.

YOUNG LINCOLNS LIBRARY.

When Abraham Lincoln was small
boy he had very few books. There was
no need for him to consult a list of the
hundred best books. His earliest pos
sessions consisted of less than half
dozen volume-a pioneers library.
First, of course, was the bible, a
whole library in itself, II properly I'M
derstood, and containing every sort of
observation-disclosures, poems, dramas, adj
dresses, orations, histories some simple
enough for the youngest child, others
taking the wisdom of the learned. Sec
ond was Pilgrims Progress" with Its
quaint characters and vivid scenes re-
lated in simple, vigorous English.
"Aesop's Fables" was third, and in
troduced the log-cabin boy to a won-
derful range of Characteristic gods
of mythology, the different ranks anG
classes of mankind, and every animal
under the sun. Fourth was History
of the United States" in which there
was the charm of truth and a more
modern tone, and from which were
thV iNoocio VI Luht
Lincoln's manhood put into action.
Last came Weems' Life of Washing
ton" queer, stilted book, but one full
of detail that made Washington seem
living example
These five books were the beginning
of Lincolns education: and what
wise man has outgrown them all?
From the bible, Pilgrims Progress"
and "Aesop" the boy Lincoln learned
the power and beauty of plain English
words, and saw that the grandest
thoughts and most poetic imaginings
needed only the strong little words of
every day. When, therefore, In later
life he wished to be sure he understood
any matter, 1t became his custom to
translate 1t into words such as a child
can understand.
Read again the Gettysburg Ad-
dress" and the Second Inaugural" and
learn how Lincoln could make the
homespun words of common use move
the hearts of his felow-men.
Who will tell us what books were
read by other great men and women
of the past when they were young
readers?" st. Nicholas.

A BLOW AT MATRIMoNY.

A terrible blow at the divine institu-
ton of matrimony has been ad-
ministered by Judge Simmons, OF
Kansas, who has commanded Mrs
Johnson of Missouri to leave her hus-
band, whom she married the day after
her divorce, contrary to the judges
instructions It seems that Mrs. John
son innocently offended a harsh law,
which compels the Divorce to wait six
months before she takes on new con-
jugal responsibilities. whereas Mrs
Johnson was anxious not to lose any
time and was married within few
hours after her legal separation. Our
sympathies are entirely with Mrs.
Johnson, who appears to be a nice
woman, with an exalted idea OF tho
matrimonial state and its uses. She so
far consulted the proprleties as TO wait
over one day, thereby showing nothing
of the indecent haste thai character
lied the fight of Mrs. Sloan to the
altar In Connecticut. period OF six
months is long and agonizing time 10
two loving hearts, and we believe even
the terrible Jefreys would have been
moved by the tears OF the disconsolaOa
bride. AS things go nowadays matrl-
