CHINESE MUSIC.
Noisy Beating of Gongs, cymbals Drums and Other Instruments.

GentIemar's Magazine.
 John Chinaman nas abundant means for gratifying his love of noise. Nor does ne fail to use the means on every conceivable occasion. On his New Year Day, for example-February 15, by the way-he always has an extra dose or music. In the shops one may often see a bourgeois company sitting in a row, drum, beating as if for dear life with the gravest of faces. One traveller says this is exercising the devils. and If the devils have ears 1t ought to be successful plan. The slme traveller de scribes the band at mandarin's s feast at which he was present. It con sisted of a gong. two pairs of cymbals and a single kettle drum; and the clst- ter went on almost without interruption for three hours. At the theatre the or chestra numbers usually five or six per formers, all of whom, says an attache writing from Pekin, play upon seVerak instruments, which they take up in turh according to the character of the music
 The instruments chiefly used are nd. dies, lutes. clarinets, flutes, sort or mouth organ and a large variety or Rongs, drums and cy1nbals. or course, ore spsaks 0f fiddle for simplicity s sake, for a Chinese fiddle Is no more like a European fiddle than Chinaman chimney-pot hat Even the street hawk CTS of China have each his own trade announcement in the shape or a muslcal instrument Thus one trade has thing like a monster Jewsharp, another has tiny gong, a third a drum. a fourth beats two pieces of bamboo together, and so on The beggars. too, use casta- nets made of bamboo. In Canton there Is 9 poor law according to which If a began goes into Ss sfoP h3mbno or atsks he cannot be turned out without having first secured relief.

Grow Your Own Ginger.

GOOQ t1OuSekeeplHS.
 Considering how readily the ginger may be grown, and what a sweet conserve 1t makes, it seems strange it Is not more often met with. The roots resem- ble iris roots, and multiply under the ground in the same manner. It is a canna somewhat in habit of growth and requires the same treatment-plenty of sun, rich soil. and all the water 1t can get. The plants grow from three to five feet high, with bright green leaves. topped with spikes of flowers of pe- culiar pinkish color densely crowded to- gether. In a mild climate the roots can be left in the ground over winter. but 1t Is better to dig and separate them out in the spring. When setting out. dig a hole fourteen to sixteen inches deep and half fill 1t with rich manure. On this place some loam: then the root and more loam until covered, and i'll the hole with well-dccayed manure. After growth has been well established the plant cannot get too much water. Dur ing the early fall the roots may be dug. washed, and preserved in one day. They can be sliced or preserved whole and are in every way equal to the imported article. A few roots may be dried and ground. It will be found superior to the ground ginger of commerce. which is generally adulterated in some way. To dry the roots it is better to wait until the stalk dies down. Dig them. remove all fibrous roots, and wash. Then peel by hand with thin bladed sharp knife, When peeled, dry in the sun.

practical minds at the head of the Unated States army, without waiting for the further report, which appears in the cur rent number of the Journal of Hygiene. have already decided to take action on the lines that the experiments indicate. We learn from the Surgeon General office in Washington that the regulation army shirt of navy blue is to be with drawn from all malarious districts and a light one issued in its stead.
 Letter to the Editor of The London Times:
 Sir-The very interesting notice of Mosquitoes and Color" in your paper of thfs mognias reminds me of ,toana an on, sso servaHon which l made many years ago when walking in Switzerland.
 l was much pestered by horse flies or cattle flies. to whom l am not entomolo- gist enough to assign their scientific name. These insects not only attacked my exposed face and hands, but assailed my legs, piercing through my knlcker- becker stockings and causing me very serious inconvenience.
 chanced to notice, however, that when I used brown umbrella as a protection from the sun they settled on 1t in large numbers, while they did nohting of the kind on the white parasol of my com panion: and this led me to substitute gray stockings for my reddi; h-brown ones with complete or almost complete success. I explained the matter to my self by supposing that the flies were at tracted by the brown or reddlsh-broWn color, owing to its resemblance to that of their usual prey. The experiments, however, which you describe show that this hastily adopted explanation was er- roneous, for it appears from them that the most attractive color of all to mos auitoes, and presumably to cattle flies, is navy blue. am sir. yoqE W,fIs@ HHeGie4t ore ser 10 Gordon Street.

WOMEN ARE HUNTING GOLD,
Many Arizona Mines are Owned and
 Operated by Them.

The woman of the far Southwest are not content in the occupations ordinarily assigned their sex. but are branching out into fields heretofore exclusively oc- cupied by the men. Not a few of those Tn Arizona have engaged actively in mining operations and at least three Of these enterprises are managed by wo- men who have demonstrated to the full their capacity.
 Some twenty-five years ago, when Gen. A. V. Kautz was at Prescott as Colonel of the 14th Infantry. he became inter ested In a promising looking gold claim in Big Bug District. twenty miles south of Prescott. This mine, the Gopher. formed large part of the assets of the Generals estate when he died a couple of years ago. His widow and two tal- ented daughters are now running the mine and with profit. No reduction plant Is available, so the ore is shipped. With the proceeds the property Is being inteiiigently opened un the three wo- men experimenting all the work and do- ing all there is to be done beyond the actual handling of the ore.
 Four valuable gold and copper claims. few miles from Wikenburg. Ariz., are being worked by an association Of ladies, most of them residents of Phoenix. All the officers, above the rank of foreman, are women. The General Manager is little white haired pioneer woman, Mrs. w. T. Hutchinson. The corporation the women have formed has been christened the Golden Rule Mining Company. It is capitalized at s3OOOOO. One of the claims bears the name of Helen Gould Al though the enterprise is a new one. about 1000 feet of development work has been done. The expense Is cheerfully borne by the feminine stockholders, who be- lieve they have bonanza.
 The third example of woman's ability 70 delve as well as soar Is In the south western part of the Territory. The Cas- tie Dome lead mines. thirty miles north of Yuma, are among the oldest in Ari- zona and are the only exclusive lead mines in the Southwest Their opera ton is favored by water transportation. for they are not far from the great Col orado River For years they have been owned by w. D. Luce. With him always at the mine has been his wife, who be- came in time an expert, not only op the particular property handled. but on mining in general. Six months ago MT. Luce was compelled to leave his work to seek a change of climate for the ben eft of his health. Since his departure the mine has been run successfully by Mrs. Luce. She Is superintendent and foreman. attends to the shipment of the ore and transacts every detail of the business with success and with no small degree of nrOfit.

land intact, while such br inches and leaves serve as sails for the wind. Gen. ecaily the waves break up these islands shortly after they put to sea. out some times under. favorable conditions, they travel long distances.
 The longest voyage of a floating island, according to Government records, took place in 1888. This island was first seen area of two. acres. 1t bore no trees. but 1t was thickly covered with bushes, and In one place 1t was thirty feet high above the sea level. It was in the gull stream, trayeling slowly, and with occasional un- .dulations to show where the ground swell was working beneath it. Propably 1t got oway from its river anchorage in the spring of the year. for, toward the latter part of July 1t had reached the latitude of Wilmington, Del. No large animal life had been seen on 1t, though there must have been myriads of the small creeping things which abound in the troplcs. By the end of August tit had passed Cape Cod and was veering toward the Grand Banks. 1t followed the stean1- CT lane routes quite accurately, and sev- eral vessels reported 1t. One month later t was in md-ocean, northwest of the Azores, and its voyage evidently was beginning to tell on it, It was much smaller and less compact. It was not seen again. and probably 1t met destruc- ton in the October gales. But it had travelled at least 900 miles. and if as wiS thought, II came rom the OrlnOco II must have covered twice that distance. 1t is quite possible that floating islands larger than this one. under more favor Ing circumstances. might during past ages have made the complete journey from America to Europe or Africa and so brought about distribution of anil nal species Of course, 1t is not abso- lutely certain that this island went to pieces in October. It might. though this Is not probable. have fioated down into the region of clans and seaweed, where 1t would be longer preserved.

Coronation Blowers.

The rose is the emblem of England among her flowers. and June is the month or roses; 1t seemed, therefore, natural to suppose that at the coronation We would have nal "roses. roses all the way" On the other hand Scotland. Ireland and Wales might have felt neglected at tho omission of their ernblems Though the thi1tle and the leek are not by any means pretty or sweet smelling, the shamrock can at least claim one of those qualities. All things considered, there fore. 1t is as well that the lily of the valley is to be honored. It has. indeed been put forward as an objection that the roots of this flower come from the continent; but. nevertheless. next to the rose. the lily is the favorite flower 1f the English. especially the "Naiad-like lily. of the vale with its tremulous bells and the haunting sweetness of it's scent It is to be found in neary every garden in England whether 1t surrounds a cot tage or manor. IL is quite plentiful in June: it is within reach of the poor, and besides--t Is very beautiful.

Ex-champion Chewer.

Ralph Suhl. a farmer. who lives near Abilene, Kan. has been forced to quit chewing tobacco on account of the Trust. This mans record as a con- sumner of tobacco Is q record-breaker. He claims to have chewed one pound of plug tobacco a week for twenty-four years. which means a grand total of i,242 pounds. At 50 cents a pound-and 1t never cost him less, he says-it rep- resents a cash outlay of $621. Since the Tobacco Trust has got control of the manufacture of tobacco the price is so high that he cannot afford to buy it, so he swore off on January 1.
