CAVE JEWELLERS IN CHINA
A Large Number on the Hill Slopes Along
the Yellow River.

The fact has escaped attention until
recently that there are many cave dwell
efs along part of the Hoang Ho or Vel
low river. 1t happens that they are
found on that part of the river where the
bridge on the railroad which is to CON
meet Pekin with Hankow on the Yantse
is to be built, and August Slosse, a Bel
glan engineer who lived among them for
SIX months while making studies for the
railroad in that region, has been telling
some facts about the troglodytes
Along the banks of the river the people
live in clay huts, but higher up. among
the hills, only short distance from the
stream, they make for themselves per-
manent habitatiOns dug in the hill sides.
Ihere are many villages of these caves,
not only the habitations, but also the
temples, the shops and the store houses
for grain being nothing more than these
dark artificial caves. Many of the caves
are nearly as spacious as the smaller
New York flats. They are about 8 feet
high, 10 TO II meet in width and have q
depth of 90 to 60 feet. They are dark
and gloomy abodes, but the people who
live in them think they are much prefer
able to the clay huts in which their neigh
hors live on the river bank. No adorn-
ment of the interior is attempted, ex-
cepting in the temples, whose walls are
NhiACN d>utu anu covered Win Tuue
paintings in lively ColorS, that under the
bright light which is constantly burning
gives these sacred rooms quite gaudy
appearance.
The only particular advantage the I'M
foreground rooms seem to have is that
they are cool in summer and warm in
winter. The inhabitants are gentle and
even timid, and Mr.. Slosse said that be-
ing unaccuStOmed TO seeing whites they
almost invariably disappeared into their
caves when they saw any OF his party
approaching. II was curious to see them
at distance working in their little fields
above or below their dwellings. only to
md not soul in sight upon nearer ap.
proach. They would all mysterously
| sink into the ground and apparently
| there were no human beings for mile

Death by Sleeplessness a Chinese Punish

person absolutely without sleep for nine
days will die. Sufferers from insomnia
sometimes maintain that they have gone
for weeks without sleeping, but it has
been proved that they do sleep without
being aware of it. At a certain point
sleep is inevitable, no matter what the
bodily condition, the alternative being
DEATH Prisoners have slept on the rack
of the inquisition And the Chinese
found that only the greatest ingenuity
and vigilance could carry out Il sentence
OF death by slceplessness. This mode
of capital punishment was long in favor
IN China, and is said to be so today;
while as Il form of torture, deprivation
of sleep is considered one of the most
etticacious weapons in the Chinese judi
cial ARSENAL. In some such cases the
prisoner is kept in Il cage. toe small to
stand up or lie down in, and constantly
prodded with sharp rod. Death by

responding mode of tanning wild ele-
plants is said to be depriving the ami
mails of sleep when first caught. In Il
few days they become comparatively
spirtless and harmless. The brain of
the elephant is held TO he more highly
developed than that of any other wild
animal, but, of course, as compared with
la human brain, can be easily fatigued
by new impressions, and so made very
dependent on sleep. The wild elephant
in his native jungle. however, is said to
sleep very little-a further point for the
theory of the universal ratio of sleep to
intelligence. A man taken out of his
habitat and placed in conditions which
he never could have imagined-if trans
ported to Mars, say-would doubtless
need an extraordinary amount of sleep
at first. There is the almost parallel
case of n German boy. Casper Hauser,
who up TO the age of Is was kept i'll one
room where he had no intercourse with
human beings, or sight of any natural
object not even the sky. At Is he was

constantly and so soundly that it was

A Sacred Chinese Coin.

One of the coins of the Chinese En-
peror Kanghi is very much sought after
by the Chinese, who use il in making
rings for the finger, Ii is slightly diff
ferent from the other cash issued under
the same Emperor in the form of one of
the characters that indicate the regnal
period. The Chinese call il "Lo-han-
cash" the word Lo-han being a tran
script in Chinese characters of the Sans
krit word Arhan. venerable" the name
applied TO the eighteen attendants at
Ruddha. vino are frequently seen ranged
along the two sides of the principal halls
in Buddhist temples.
The tradition is that while the En-
peror was intimately associated with Eu-
ropean missionaries he became imbued
with a feeling Of contempt for Buddhism
and illustrated this phase of his faith by
having a set of eighteen brass Lo-han
images melted down and cast into cash.
This brass is said to contain a consider
able norton of gold; hence the demand
for the cash.-Boston Transcript.
