The Ways of Chinese Cooks.

It is not an uncommon thing to hear people in the East say that they are still in want of a Chinese COOK, while others will have numbers of applications di- rectly 1t is known that their cUok has left. The reason for this Is easily dis covered if the master of the house walks down to the kitchen after his cook has been discharged and takes notice how a saucepan which will be found stand ing on the ground 1t placed. Chinese servants, particularly those from Singa- pore, when discharged leave signs which the newcomer looks for immediately he enters the kitchen If the place Is con sidered good one a saucepan will be left on the ground with the lid put on proper ly. If the lid is placed in the saucepan upside down-that is to say, with the handle of the lid inside the saucepan it means that the servant has gone away for a short time only and that as soon as he can he intends to retuurn, as the situation Is considered a good one. If the lid of the saucepan is left out On the ground near the saucepan, which is standing the right way up, 1t means the house is in want of servants. If the lid is put half way in and half way out of the saucepan 1t means that the place is a good one, but the master of the house is stingy Should the saucepan have still some rice in 1t and the lid closed properly it means that the servant is quite satisfied with everything concerning the people of the house, but that he is forced to leave on account of debts or other reasons which inconvenienced him If the master Is in the habit of cutting a servants pay for broken or lost articles or for other faults mark Is made on the bottom of the saucepan in chalk which will not rub out easily. The Chinese boy makes his mark behind the pantry or bed room door and the waterman on the bottom of his tubs. The Hylam Chinese are said to have adopted these signs from the Macao Chinese. who in the first case got the idea from the Tamis.

FISHERS FOXY STATEMENT.
Ties Big String on His Denial That
 He Has Gone with New League.

Nashville, Tenn.,' Nov. 14-(Special)- Newt Fisher Manager and owner of the Nashville Baseball Club, gave out the following interview to your correspon- dent today concerning the report that he had jumped the old Southern League to become a member of the new organiza- tion.
 "The statement that have cast my lot with the new Southern League is abso- lutely unauthorized It is untrue that have decided to join the new Southern League, and should I decide to do so, will come out in signed statement and not in a newspaper interview.
 T am now a member in good standing of the Southern Association of Baseball Clubs When I get ready to leave that Association, if I should decide to do so, I will resign gracefully. I will turn over the Association its Nashville franchise. will give it back. not sell it, and the Southern Association can then give it to whom it pleases, should it be ever re- turned to me.
 If I should go into a new league, which is hostile to the old Association, could respect contracts, but I would not respect the reserve clause. I should treat my rivals as I should expect to be treat ed
 "The story about my sending contracts for my players to sign with the new league is false. I have sent a personal blank contract to Hugh Hill and hope he will sign it. It simply obligates him to play with my team in Nashville. and with no designated league. It is also false

COAL VEINS IN MADISON.
The Mines are to Be Opened Near
 Huntsville.

Huntsville. Nov. H.-tspecial. )--Rich coal veins have recently been discovered in the mountains three miles from Gurley and several tons of the coal have been tested and found to be of very su- psrior quality. The coal Is on the lands of Thomas Gurley, and are only three miles from the Southern Railroad. It is likely that mines will be opened at once and the coal placed upon the market in large quantities.
 Should railroad be built to the mines the coal would give Huntsville "a boost in an industrial way. The apparent lack of fuel in this section has been the only drawback to locating many large indus tries in this city.
