The Man. WIN. stnxed.

For pne woman who dominates her
husband in China there are doubtless
nine of the approved oriental stripe of
humility. Nevertheless Chinese humor-
ous literature abounds in references to
henpecked husbands. Professor Her
bert Allen Giles of the University, of
Cambridge told one of these stories:
Ten henpecked husbands resolved to
form society to resist the imposition
of their wives. The ten wives heard of
the plan and while the meeting for or
ganization was in progress entered the
room in a body. Nine of the rebellious
husbands fed, butt the tenth one re-
tanned his place. apparently unmoved
by the unexpected visitation.
The ten wives, after smiling con
temptuously' ON the one man who re-
manned, went back to their homes, well
content with the success of their raid.
The nine! husbands thereupon re-
turned to their meeting, resolved to
make the heroic tenth man the presi-
dent of the society.
When they entered the room, how
ever, to inform him of the honor, it
was found that he was dead. He had
died of fright.

viRcHow AND HIS WAYS.

Herr Professor Was Blunt, but He
Once Met Ills Match.
The late Professor Virchow was. in
his own country at least, almost as
famous for his excessive bluntness Of
speech as for his very remarkable men
tai attainments, says the Philadelphia
Press. Often he spoke so unfeelingly
to the students who sat under him in
the lecture rooms that they have been
known to leave his classes and not re-
turn. According to. Berlin traditions,
one of the professors favorite replies
to wrong answer to one of his ques-
lions was:
Certainly not Any cook would
know better. than that"
On the other hand, he seemed to ap-
preciate the spirit in some of his stu
dents which prompted them to answer
him back in very much his own tone.
Once when he was presiding in very
old and faded suit of clothes he turned
suddenly upon a seemingly bashful
man sitting near him and asked:
do your eyes tell you the truth !?
What color is this coat of mine?"
Without an instant's hesitation the
young man rose and said: II presume
it was once black. Now it is any color
except white

ties. In the new congressional dele

The vote in the state was generally
heavy, partly owing to the pleasant
weather which prevailed over all the
state. The main interest conferred in
the contests for congress in the ten
districts. In almost every county in
the. state, however. there were local
issues to complicate the voting, and
scratching was, as result, quite com.
mon.

and the count was slow. In Newark
the. vote was particularly heavy. In
hardly ward in the city was there
straight out party voting. Elizabeth
cast its vote slowly all day. Trenton,
too was slow, and there were frequent
calls for pastors. Paterson's vote was
heavy, and there was less scratching
there apparently than in any other of
the larger cities. In Jersey City the
proposition to have single headed
street and water board has been tie
feated.
