During a visit to the south with an

eminent American professor met an old
negro servant whose duty it was to
look after the chickens Of the establish

before the eclipse took place the pro-
lessor in an idle moment called the old
man to him and said, Sam, il tomor-
row morning at II o'clock you watch
your chickens you will find they will all

Sam was skeptical, Of course, but
when at the appointed time next day
the sun in the heavens was darkened
and the chickens retired to roost the
negros establishment knew no bounds.
He approached the professor in awed
wonder. "Massa," he asked, "how long
ago did you know dat dem chickens
would so to roost?" ....
"Oh, long time" said the professor
airily.

"Then dat beats de debil" exclaimed

Iaundries In China.

"It's the funniest thing to me-" said
an old sea captain who for many years
was in the China trade, that nine out
q every ten Cinnamon who come to

In a business which does not exist in

''As every one knows, the Chinese at
home wear soft cotton and wooden gar
ments according to the season, and
there is not IA pound of starch in all

known, and the Chinese men do not
do the washing as they do In this coun-
Try. Neither is there any regular laun-
dry in the Flowery Kingdom. There

THE APOSTLES.

0Ablems Bestowed Upon Them by
the Medieval Artists.
The medieval artists, having no ide,
Of the personal appearance Of the Saw
tours followers, adopted a set of signs
or emblems, for each, which soon be
came familiar to all. The emblem OF
Peter was either large key or two
keys crossed, which is readily explain
ed by referring to the words of Christ
(Matthew xvi, 19), And will give un
to thee the keys Of the kingdom OF
heaven" The emblem of Paul was q
sword and a book-the latter to remind
the behOlder that he was a teacher OF
men, the former to indicate that he was
beheaded with sword. St. Andrew
was usually figured standing by cross
shaped like letter Y, that being the
form Of the cross upon which legend
says he was crucified. The emblem of
st. James the Great was either swor /,
referring to the fact that he was also
beheaded, or pilgrims staff, he being
a great traveller.
st. Johns emblem was a caldron, re-
ferring to his experience in the boiling
oil. st. Philips emblem is an enigma.
1t was spear and cross, yet it is
known that he was hanged. ST. Bar
tholomew, who was "Hayed alive" is
represented with knife and his skin
hanging over his arm. Matthew's en-
blem Is square, supposed to have
some reference to Christ's calling. st.
Thomas. having been pierced with a
DART" 10 pictured carrying spear.
The emblem Of James the Less was
club. he having been beaten to death
with faggOt;" st. Matthias an ak, he
having been beheaded. Simon's EN-
blem was saw. The legend says "he
was sawn asunder."

Disguised Hands Always bad.

Here is a TRUTH" says a handwrit
ing expert in the Philadelphia Record,
that is as widespread as the ether: A
disguised hand always tries to be poor
er than the real hand. That axiom is
great help to us experts. For in
stance, when letter done in a dis
guised hand is brought to us we al.
ways know that the writer of the let.
ter is in higher station than the hand
would lead lis to infer; hence in our
detective work we are able to save
much valuable time by eliminating all
persons socially below the appearance
of the letter and concentrating our at
tentiOn Oh those only who are above
it."

THE PAY OF MINERS.
Evidence on That Point Heard by

". A. MAY ON THE STAND.
0sasral Manager ef the PeAnsylvo-

Statistics Recently Given t.
the Board Of Inquiry.

Scranton, Pa, Dec. 18-The miners
during the day put on the witness
stand before the coal strike commits
sion the fathers Of two Of the little
girls who testified on Monday that
they had worked all night In silk mills.
The operators had submitted wage
statements showing that one of these
men and his laborer received $1.6S1
and the other and his labOrer were paid
81, 400 last year. John Demko, father
of one of the girls, said that four and
sometimes six men figured in the d.
vision of the 81 400 The other miner
claimed that four men divided the
$1.GS1.
Everett Warren. one of the opera ors
attorneys, on cross examination tflPu
to show that this was not the case
Both men promised to take the girls
out of the silk mill.
After the witnesses left the stand
Chairman Gray asked for an explana-
ton from the Pennsylvania Coal com
v.
Railroad company, regarding the wages
of men. The wages mentioned by the
| company were handed to the commits
| sion some days ago and did not indi-
cate that more than than two persons
| figured in the distribution
sIr. Mays Evidence.
". 4. May general manager of the
PENNSYLVANIA Coal company, was call
! cd to the witness stand and explained
| that because of the system in vogue in
the company's mines it would be diff
| cult to show in every case how many
men shared in one pay.
G. s. barrow, for the miners, said
the miners had no confidence in the
| figures submitted by the company and
! added that the way they were handed
in was unfair.
The deputy factory inspector Of the
| Scranton district was examined re-
! garding child labor and said that 1,4W
| boys and 1000 girls between the ages
of thirteen and sixteen years are EN-
| ployed in the mills In this vicinity
Chairman Gray suggested that the
Pennsylvania legislature be petitioned
to improve the factory inspection laws
regarding child labor.
Three state mine inspectors were
then called. They were unanimous III
saying that the companies in their dis
tricts had no rules requiring the miners
to stay in the mines all day. One in
spector said the miners in his district
did not average Ave hours work day
The same witness said most of the
accidents are due to the negligence OF
misjudgment of the workmen them
selves. The inspectors in reply tt
questions asked by the commissioners
said they sometimes were accompanied
by company officials and many times
they visited the workings alone.
