A Chinese Curiosity.

"A Chinaman in San Francisco" says
a gossipcr in the Philadelphia Record,
"shoWed me once an ivory ball as big
as YOUR two fists, with six smaller balls
inside it 1t was the most wonderful
thing | ever saw. The Chinaman said
that the balls had been begun by his
grandfather and that he was the third
generation to work on them. He told
me how the work was done.
sit begins with a solid block OF ivory,
which is turned into Il ball and then
carved in latticed pattern with tiny
saw toothed knives. Through the lat
tice, with other knives that are bent In
various shapes, the second ball is cary
ed. but is kept fast to the first one by
a thin strip of ivory left at the top and
by another left at the bottom. Then
the third ball, with still finer knives, is
tackled through the first and second
ones, and so the work goes OH till all
the balls are finished, when the strips
that hold them firm are cut aW',y, and
they all revolve freely, one inside the
other.
"This Chinaman said it was COM
mon thing for families to have such
balls for hundreds of years-grandfa-
ther. father, son and grandson working
on them when they had nothing else to
do. They are priceless, of course. Some
cheap balls are made Of vegetable ivo-
nv, being carved while the material Is
soft. like a potato These, though, are
not worth more than few dollars at
the most"

TRYING 10 Keen Ont.

A sick man who was really near to
death could not resist the temptation to
have a little fun with his spiritual ad-
wiser. He had lingering malady, but
his days were certainly numbered by
few weeks ut the most. He had not
been known as man OF strong rell-
gious convictions, and yet there was
little If anything which could be said
against him. 1t was one of those dell
cate cases in which 1t Is hard for the
minister to do anything. Some one
suggested to Rev. Paul Weyand. then
stationed at Morningside, that he make
a call upon the patient.
Going to the house, he found the man
propped up in bed to relieve smother
ing sensation. The sick man could
scarcely talk above d whisper, and Rev.
Mr.. Weyand began to make subtle in
quiries about his spiritual welfare.
The invalid's answers were all non
committas and evasive, and finally in
despair the pastor asked:
"Do you really want to 60 to heaven,
Mr.. Blank"
"Do | want to 60 to heaven| repeat
ed the dying man in hoarse whisper.

FLASH.
evening approached fire beside which
Hines sat alone end threw package
of powder on the blaze. With leap
aside he escaped consequences, but
Jack Hines was blinded for life. 1t
was contemplate thing to do. and
but for the civil authorities the Next
can would have been lynched. AS it
was, he was kicked and beaten and
bounced out of camp. a day or two
later, as the girl had gone back on him,
be tried to carry her off by force, but
had to let her go when she stabbed
him. Hines depended on her pity in
his misfortune, but she calmly told him
that blind husband would be of no
use to her and laughed his tears to
scorn. He had a relative in the city
and was taken in and cared for, while
the Mexican crossed the Rio Grande for
n time. 1t was year later and Jacks
old outfit ard all his friends happened
to be in Santa Fe again when Don re-
turned He had grown uglier and
meaner in the II months. We would
have picked fuss with him and shot
him down, but Jack Hines had no soon
err heard of his presence than he said:
"Boys. you must arrange for a duel.
| shall never rest content until | have
killed that Meyican."
but you are blind" we protested,
Never mind that. | must fight him
.,,,1 I'm him IItnI M ppt and tlo
whole Of Santa Fe shall look on"
When we found that he would have
it so. we carried challenge to Don
and also asked the authorities to let us
have public duel Some weak obiec-
TORS were made. but the" yielded the
point. A fight of some sort was an
hourly incident. and duels came off
two or three times per week. The

You may believe that when the re-
port spread about there was great ex-
element. 1t was generally believed
that the blind man would fall an oasy
victim, brt even his best friends said
that he had better die with a knife in
his hand than TO live in a helpless state
the rest of his life. To three or -four
of us Jack confded his belief that he
would triumph. His hearing had be-
come as acute as a fox's. and he
would make his ears see for him. He
was in perfect health, had the nerve
and courage of lion. and he believed
he had chance.

BY M. Quad.
COPYRIGHT, 1900, BY c. B. LEWIS.

OVOV WV
Without doubt the most singular duel
that ever took place in the United
States occurred at Sante Fee, N. NJ, 80
years ago. 1t was several years pre-
vious to the first Pacific railroad and
while yet every pound of goods going
to the far west had to be hauled across
the great plains by freight wagon or
sent around Cape Horn by sea.
Two men in a Rogers e. Blair outfit
fell in love with the same girl in Santa
Fe. One was an American named
Jack Hines, and the other was a full
blooded Mexican who was simply
known as Don. The girl was a half
breed, and none of US outside the
two rivals thought her worth fighting
over. l do not think she really cared
for either man, but her game was CO.
Quette and keep them on the ragged
edge and make the most she could ont
of it. She received many valuable
presents from the rivals, and know
that Hines lent her father money
which was never returned. For time
the rivalry was a subject for joking
among us, but when we saw that eli
Their man was ready to fly at the 9th
er's throat on the smallest provocation
the case became serious. They were
not only good men for the outfit, each
earning the highest wages paid, but
they were game men, and if they came
together nothing was surer than that
one would be killed.
The affair had gone on for seven or
eight months before the outbreak came.
We were in Santa Fe, making ready
for q start east, when the Mexican one

WHAT is A GENTLEMAN9

The Richmond Times of Wednesday
has an interesting article upon what
constitutes the essential mark of a
gentleman, as distinct from a charac-
t~eristic of birth and clothes, of man
ners and speech" and quotes approx
ingly the opinion of President Had
ley, of Vale, who says:
81 believe it is to be found in the
readiness to accept trusts, even when
they are personally disadvantageous-
the readiness to subordinate a mans
own convenience and desires to a So
cial code. In this sense l believe that
the great body of the American peo-
pie are gentlemen"
And the Times adds: THE true
gent is he who recognizes and
respects the rights of others, and at
