The passenger department OF the
Chicago, Milwaukee Il ST. Paul rail
way has taken advantage OF the cur
rent interest 10 the Paris Exposi-
tion and has had printed for free

ing books of the season, entitled,
"Glimpses Across the Sea. Its
contents describe recent voyage
across the Atlantic made by Sam.
T. Glover, journalist and author, and
includes his diversified experiences
in London and Paris. The
"Glimpses" are entertaining and
instructive to the prospective pat
rons of the Chicago, Milwaukee &

enterprise of the railway company

The auditor general in a circular
addressed to county and township
treasurers calls attention to recent
changes ia the tax law The prin-
cipal change and the one OF most in
tercst to the public is the amend
ment which permits city and town
treasurers to seize the personal
property of any person, firm or cor
poration which refuses to pay its
taxes il anything of value belonging
to the limits of the state. Before
the amendment, seizure could be
made only in the adjoining counties.
There is no property exempt from
seizure, though the firm or corpora
ton which may be holding for the
property of another and be taxed
for it and have goods seized upon
failure to pay the tax may recover
from the owner OF the property by
bringing an action in assumpsit.

AN INITIATIVE PEOPLE.
The Chinese Are Not Original in Me-
chanics, But Capable of BOr-
rowing Ideas.

The Chinaman has little of mechan-
zeal ingenuity, although he possesses
rare powers of imitation and is often
very much alive to the excellence of me-
chanical devices he never saw before.
A wear or two ago, says London paper,
Henry A. Janvier was sent to China to
assist in the erection and operation of
coming plants for brass and silver cur
rency. One of the tools which Mr..
Janvier took with him was a micro
meter caliper," made by well-known
firm in the United States and capable
of detecting differences Of thou
sandth of an inch in the thickness of
piece Of metal The superintendent of
one Of the shops which Mr.. Janviers
established was named Wal, and he
proved very intelligent fellow. Dur
ing an interval of about six weeks he
borrowed the caliper almost daily, and
was rather tardy in returning it.
Finally he exhibited to the American
a reproduction of the instrument which
was perfect except in one respect. Ger
tain tables of figures stamped into the
steel by the Yankee makes of the orig
inal were omitted from the copy, and
in their place were several Chinese
characters The imitation had been
made with the rudest of tools, but was
a marvel of accuracy. Mr.. Wal pro-
posed an exchange to Mr.. Janvier, and
the latter agreed to the proposition.

CHINA'S EMPRESS DOWAGER.
Mrs. COnger Was Much Pleased with
the Widely Discussed
Woman.

The true character of the empress
dowager is one of the minor problems
which complicate the Chinese puzzle.
Her portrait has been painted in ali
the hues of the rainbow, the darker
shades predominating. A very favora-
bic view of her disposition, says the
Chicago Chronicle, is to be found in
a letter from Mrs. Conger, the wife
of the United States minister at Pc
king. Mrs. Conger visited the dow
ager empress, together with the wives
of the other ministers. She was
charmed with her hostess, who GER
tainly did her best to- please. What
ever hatred of the foreign devils" the
dowager empress may have been cher
ishing in her heart found no express
sion in her countenance or words.
''She seemed bright and happy" says
Mrs. Conger. ''Her face was aglow
with good will There was no trace
of cruelty to be seen. In simple ex-
pressions she welcomed us, but her
actions were full of freedom and
warmth. Sne arose and wished US
well. She reached both hands toward
each lady. and said, with much en-
thusiastic earnestness: One family,
all one family She was very cordial,
and when tea was passed to us she
stepped forward and tipped each cup
of tea to her own lips. She took sip,
then lifted the cup on the other side
to our lips, and said again: One fam
ily, all one family The events OF
the last two months have probably
somewhat shaken Mrs. Conger's con-
fidence in the sincerity of the empress
| dowager and in her methods of treat
ing family"
