A typical scene in a Manchurian VII
lage is thus described by correspond
ent Of the London News:
"That afternoon we pulled up near
three shanties on a woodside, and
gang of Chinese, all squabbling and
making noises like dogs growing over
bones, fought with one another to get
on n platform where a boiler was
chained. There was n scutile. One
Chinese was pushed backward and
fell. His head hit the metal and
cracked like nut. He gave wriggle
and died. The Russians who saw the
accident We're affected. The Chinese
laughed. He lay for an hour in the
sun until undid his sleeping rug and
spread it over his face. He was soon
forgotten. 4 Chinese threw some hot
water over a growing dog and made
1t howl. At this there were shrieks of
mirth.
1.-THE engine puffcd and groaned and
jerked the wagons into progress. The
last saw of this spot was two CHINA
men pitching mud at the same Dig to
keep it from shifting at the body Of the
dead"

or,rin of Demonstrated Dogs.

The Eskimo dog is derived from the
wolf. Doubtless the first dogs which
were trained to serve mankind were
the jacknls Of Asia. which are to this
day very intelligent and docile when
tanned. There was a kind of dog kept
by the ancient Egyptians which was
evidently obtained by breeding from
slenderly built species that is wild In
Africa at the present time.
