Graphic Pen Picture of Great Wall

Here is a pen picture of James R.
Keene, the Wall street speculator.
drawn by a writer in the Cosmopoli-
tan: "A man past Co. tall, slender,
with a marvelously well-shaped head /;
hair and beard half gray; bushy eye
brows; fierce, feline eyes-cold, with
a curious menacing lock or cleaning
with sardonic humor-made restless
as Gagged tiger by the wear and tear
of lifetime of stock gambling, yet
with nerves of steel; cynical in his
views of mems motives; possessing a
literary style of remarkable lucidity
and distinction, yet habitually over
strong of spoken language; a man of
culture, yet crony Of race track ha-
bitues; coldly calculating as Talley-
rand, yet impulsive as schoolgirl; a
surprisingly keen judge of security
values, yet often an investor in worth
less shares, possessing the great gift
of patience in his campaigns, yet the
most dashing operator in Wall street;
extravagantly generous with some
who serve him and incredibly insen-
sible to gratitude with others; often
distrustful of disinterested friends,
and as often victimized by not over
plausible adventures; full of contra
dictions as OF abilitieS-such is James

TEACHING CHINESE CHILDREN.
A School in Mott Street Similar to
Those in Canton.

So many of the residents of China
town have raised little. Acknowledged
families that not long since they found
it advisable to start school similar
to those in Canton. After sore
trouble schoolmaster was obtained,
and the institution was opened in
Mott street. Here the young Chine re
idea is taught how to shoot in the
most approved style. The system is
very different from. our own, and in
some respects compares quite favor
ably with the latter When the
school was opened each child was en-
tered under the name of its father anG
it's own milk name, as the first appella-
ton of youngster is termed There
upon the schoolmaster bestowed upon
each the school name which will re-
main until it is twenty-one This is
in itself high compliment, because
the milk name is grotesque or effemin-
ate. Each child on being named
kneels and kow-tows, and thanks the
schoolmaster for his courtesy. Kneel-
ing and kow-towing are repeated
every day on entering the classroom
Books are very seldom employed the
first two years in the Chinese school,
a blackboard, slate, or a piece of
writing paper being the first educa-
tional instruments. The teaching is
effected by putting facts into poetical
form. one generally if not universally
employed being the rhymed couplet
The schoolmaster recites it slowly
once, then the children repeat it. AT
ter the third time, any child who can
rot repeat it is rattanned. In the be-
ginning, two or three conplets day
are a formal lesson. The number is
increased to five, ten, and twenty =
day, according to the quickness of
the scholars. The children recite in
chorus, and at times the noise is deaf
ening. In our own civilization there
are traces of this ancient system of
teaching. which will give good idea
of the Chinese method. Such bits of
doggerel as:
A was marcher, and shot at frog.
B was butcher. and had a big dog.
or the rhythmic chant:
Thirty days hath SEPTEMBER April,

A Romantic EoundIInu Story.

The Evreux correspondent of the
Temps states that a few days ago an
auto-car. without any number of reg
istration, and carrying three men and
woman, passed along the road from
Cherbourg to Paris. When near
farmhouse at Louvet the
car stopped and one Of the men de-
scended with bundle which he de-
posted on the roadside. Two farm
laborers on .heir way home from work
arrived on the scene and approached
the bundle, whereupon the car went of
toward Paris at great speed. The
bundle was removed to the farmhouse.
where it was opened, and was found
to contain newly born child in a
cradle. On the pillow there was a
roll of fourteen 1000 franc notes and
a letter, which read as follows:
Whoever will bring up this child
until its majority will never want for
anything all their life. on the express
condition that they never seek to pene-
trate the secret of the birth of the
child, the Issue Of one OF
the noblest families of England I"
The matter was reported to the local
authorities. who are now trying to
trace the course of the mysterious
auto-car.-London News.

MAcKEYs RULE IN BUSINESS.
Plan of Great FInancier an Excellent
One to Follow.

The late John w. Mackey, not
withstandiEg the multiplicity and
magnitude of his business affairs,
when he had fallen in death and his
body had been buried in its mauso-
leum, those whose Office it was to
settle the status Of his great business
found that he did not owe a dollar
to any man beyond the usual monthly
current accounts for items of per-
sonal and household supply. He had
out 70 notes payable, no unsettled
balances in his commercial enter
prises, none of those troublesome un-
liquidated claims that SO frequently
delay and decimate estates.
John w. Mackey had lived and done
business strictly On the pay as you
go plan. Because he had adhered to
this policy from the commencement
of his career he was able to leave be-
hind clean score, with an enormous
balance on the right side. The Incl
dent is strongly suggestive lesson
to young men beginning in business
careers. 1t is one easy to learn and
sure to win.-Atlanta Constitution.

A policeman on duty in the Champa

surprised to see a man climb up the
trunk of one of the large chestnut
trees and disappear among the
branches. The officer obtained lad

cred hammock slung to the branches
and with man lying comfortably in
it. At the police station he gave his
name as Aosario Paz. He said he was
a colonel in the Venezuelan army;
that he had taken part in the reyolu-

taken prisoner, but escaped. A price
being set on his head, he fed to Eu

when he reached Paris he took W
his abode in tree to save hotel ex
penses. He produced papers in proof
of his assertions and was pleased with
a caution.
