PAYING DUTY IN KIND.

The rapacity Of Turkish officials Of
all sorts is notorious, but that Of the
customs officers exceeds all otherkinds
An interesting ms lance Of paying du t..
in kind is to be record ed. An official
of the British embassy bought IN Paris
q dress for his, wife, for which he paid

EGO and demanded duty on that
amount. The Englishman protested.
and, Knowing the law, said they might
keep the dress, paying him the value
they had fixed upon it, less the eight
per cent. This was one, and a month
later at the public action Of confiscated
goods The bought back the dress for

ing and making profit Of 6 80 As on
the bargain. i III.

ONE MISSIONARIES WORK.
Chicago Woman Who Has Taught Chi.
u nese Deaf Mutes to Speak.

= Z (. = ) .
4 OF all American missionaries in
China in the present crisis, Mrs. An
nette Thompson Mills, Of Chicago,
probably has the best chances Of es.
Gaping native violence.
She has performed what the super
stitious Chinese consider miracles in
making deaf mute children to under
stand conversation, and to write and
talk. 81 3. ~. ! 81.
Her deaf mute school at Chefoo is
not supported by any one religious
sect or by any country. It is main.
tanned by contributions from Great
Britain and Ireland, New Zealand
Russia and France. Until Mrs. Mills
opened this school the deaf mutes
were treated with the utmost con
tempt by their families. Their af-
Fiction seemed to be an object for
shame rather than sympathy
Passing through the streets Of the
distant towns, Mrs. Mills heart was
torn to see these specifies ones sit
ting cross-legged in the public high
ways, whence they we're driven to beg
by their relatives.
The pitifully abject humility Of
these men and women or boys and
girls, who rang big gong as she APP
preached and knocked their heads on
the stones Of the road, pleading for
aims, made her indignant. q
She took two or three Of these poor
beggars into her own home, and her
efforts were crowned with such sue
cess that her fame was spread broad
cast. She has taught many Chinese
mothers and fathers that care and not
cruelty shoald be used in the treat
ment Of these poor unfortunates.
Besides teaching the children to
employ the organs Of speech, Mrs.
Mills has invented Chinese deaf and
dumb alphabet, BY means Of which
she communicates with her pupils on
her fingers. This alphabet was con-
structed only after the most arduous
labor and painstaking care by Mrs.
Mills, and. only IN deaf and dumb in
sstitutions where the English language
is taught isthere anythingto be COM
pared with it.
The children live il the school with
her, and she keeps them there for
months at a time. The gratitude Of
the children and their parents finds
expression il the most extreme acts
of devo tion, and Mrs. Mills feels more.

at $40 West Eighteenth street, said to
be conducted by numb of medical
students, was attacked by crowd of
Infatuated Bohemians and Lithuanians
and before the police arrived in response
to riot call the building was badly
damaged. So intense was the excite
ment that the police had great difficulty
in preventing the crowd from tearing
the building to pieces. For some time
past stories of bodies being dissected in
the dispensary had been in circulation
among the people in that vicinity.
Thursday boy disappeared and his boy
companion at once reported that he had
been waylaid and killed by the doctors.
In few moments mob of several
hundred was at work demolishing the
building. Clubs were used freely, and
several arrests made before the crowd
was dispersed. Later the boy was
found unframed.

Tooka Coatly Nan.

To begin with he's "a good fellow"
That's a phrase easier understood by
men than by women. 1t generally
means well, it means he's an all round
good sort in the male line
Saturday afternoon he was feeling
pretty good. He had been quite thirsty
if what he had taken was to be judged
as criterion. And the ibations left
him in thoroughly good humor, and
he felt at peace with the world.
In this delightful mental and phys
zeal state he bethought him Of a friend
of his in Providence, and he further
thought that he would call up that
particular friend on the telephone.
So he went to a Broad street hotel,
told the young woman there who had
charge Of the telephone that he wanted
to speak to Mr.. So-and-so in Provi-
dence and wouldn't she kindly call up
the party.
The girl did as she was babe.
"Party's on the phone she said,
and the man went into the telephone
box sat down and put the receiver to
his ear.
And then he calmly and sweetly
dropped off to sleep.
When he woke up, he owed the tele-
phone company $3.50.

DO NOT CARE TO SERVE.

St. Louis Citizens Try to Avoid Joining
the Sheriff's Posse.
ST. LOUIS, June Cars on the vari-
GUS street car lines are running about
the same as for the last few days.
Sheriff Pohlman, who received orders
from the board of police commissioners
to summon posse comitatus OF 1000
men to aid the police in preserving Or
der during the street railway strike,
began his work during the day. Lists
had been prepared and summonses are
being served as fast as possible by the
sheriff's regular deputies. The sheriff
expects to have the posse ready for
service by Saturday. Sheriff Pohlman
said:
ST will appoint captains who will
have charge Of squads to be stationed in
dozen places over the city. The people
Of St. Louis have been warned not to
congregate in crowds and cause dis
turbancesr and if my men are forced to
adopt extreme measures it will be the
fault of those starting and participating
in the trouble. I believe most Of the
trouble is caused by strangers in the
city and not by the strikers.
Will BE Armed With shotguns.
Being asked how he would arm his
men the sheriff replied that he was per-
sonally in favor of giving the men re-
peating shotguns.
ST do not like the idea Of being COM
PEELED to arm these men and send them
out on this mission he said, 'but the
law gives me no other recourse, and I
shall do it. Each deputy will be sworn
in as soon as he responds to the sum-
mons served upon him. We will have
no time to drill them, but will give each
very explicit instructions as to what we
expect of him"
Sheriff Pohlman later said that since
the draft for the posse comitatus began
nearly every man of any position who
has been summoned to serve on the
posse is skurrying about to get physi-
clans certificate that he is suffering
from some chronic disease which units
him for duty.

walt whitman,s Pride.

Whitman's grandmother was a
Quaker, and the bard had been all his
life used, Quaker fashion, to sitting in
the house with his sombrero on if il
suited him to do so. One day, with q
friend he entered the gloomy and half
empty precincts Of Trinity church!
New York, and took back seat in the
obscurity and for a moment forgot
to remove his hat or was probably just
about to do so when an officious vergel
stepped up and requested him to take
it off.
Walt, man of immense pride, not
seeing fit to do so instantaneously OF
being very slow in his mental proc
esses, was taking the matter into con-
sideration for a second when the
verger knocked the offending hat of
his head. Walt picked up the huge
felt and. doubling it together, smoteI
the fellow vigorously twice or thrice
with it on the head and slowly lefil

lowing and threatening him with the

Got to Be an Old story.

Over 20 years ago an American civil
engineer, who visited Cabecera, in
Venezuela, was asked by deputation
Of the inhabitants, who had heard Of
his skill as a surveyor, whether he
thought canal could be made from
their village to Provecue, which would
save a very long river journey. He
visited the district and found that by
taking advantage of two small stream
canal Of about league would be all
that was necessary.
The committee were delighted with
this report, and they begged the sur
veyor to write an official letter to the
government on their behalf, asking
that they might be permitted to begin
the work at once.
Ten years after this the surveyor
was again at the village of Cabecera,
and the first question asked him was:
"Do you not think a canal could be
made from here to Provecue?
On his informing them that he had
been asked the same question ten years
before and had taken some time and
trouble about the matter, the chairman
replied that on account of politics, the
death of his father, etc., the govern
ment letter had probably been over
looked. Search was made, the letter
was found and once more all was ex-
citement. Nothing was talked about
but the canal
Some years later yet the surveyor
was again at Cabecera. Immediately
on his arrival a deputation waited upon
him. do you think a canal The
speaker never got any further with
that question: Youths Companion.
