"A spirit came to me from the other

BRAVE UNTO DEATH
SUBLIME HERoISM OF LITTLE
JAPANESE CORPORAL.
Incident That Occurred at the Siege
Of Pekin Shows the Qualities Of the
SmaII-statured Soldiers Of the
Mikado.

During the active troubles of the
allied powers with China. the Japa-
nese troops excited the admiration Of
the world by their bravery and
almost perfect discipline. Thomas
Willard, war correspondent, tells
a thrilling story illustrative OF Japa-
nese valor and contempt for peril.
The force sent to relieve the Chris.
lions who were besieged in Pekin
had arrived and It devolved on the
Japanese contingent to blow In a GER
tain gate.
These massive wooden gates,
which are sunk deep in the thick,
means of little bridge across the
moat that encircles the city. The
Japanese general decided that a
breach would have to be effected by
means of dynamite. For this danger
Gus mission he called for volunteers.
A little corporal about four feet six
inches in height was picked out AS
with utter unconcern he marched
briskly across the bridge, the enemy
potted at him from the top Of the
wall until he was out Of sight In the
recess occupied by the gate. Having
lighted the fuse, he quickly made his
way back to his own lines without
sustaining a wound.
No sooner had he got out Of the
way than a small door was cautiously
opened and an almond-eyed face
peered out. With his sandaled foot
the Chinaman stamped out the light
ed fuse. Then he went back and
closed the door.
Defying almost certain death, the
little corporal started out again, and
once more lighted the fuse, On his
way back he IVES hit in the shoulder
and stumbled to the ground. Then
he picked himself up and managed to
reach safety. Once more, however,
the Chinaman was too quick for the
slow fuse.
Then the little corporal went pat
tering back to the half-demolished
gate. lighted his fuse, drew his short
bayonet-sword and waited. There was
frightful moment of breathless sus-
pense, then with frightful roar the
old gate was blown to the heavens
and with 1t went the poor little cor.
poral.
1t Is one thing to risk ones life in
the heat Of battle, but quite another
to face the certain and horrible
death from which the subject of the
Mikado never linched.-Youth's Com.

DEAFNESS NOT ALWAYS BAD.
Edison Does Not Look Upon II as ar
Affiiction.

Go'soh Does NOT LOOK Upon II as an
Affliction.
That Thomas A. Edison is deaf is a
fact well known to the public Only
his intimate friends, however. are
aware that in his case deafness is
more psychological phenomenon
than physical condition. That which
interests him he can usually hear very
well, but to that which does not inter.
est him he can be as deaf as the pro.
verbal adder.
Not long ago a specialist in diseases
of the ear called upon Mr.. Edison and
unfolded a plan of treatment which
he was sure would restore his hearing.
The inventor listened to his story with
patience, as it was informative on sew.
eral points. To the proposition that
he submit to treatment, however, Mr.
Edison opposed an emphatic negative
What I'm afraid Of" said he, "is
that you would be successful. Just
think what lot of stuff I'd have to
listen to that don't want to hear! To
be little deaf and be the only one
who knows just how deaf you are has
its advantages, and on the whole ]
think I prefer to let we'll enough

EQUAL TO THE OCCASION.
Young Woman Could Write a Fair
Business Letter Herself

A Baltimore woman, the belle of her
set. was much surprised not long ago
to receive an invitation OF which the
following is the substance:
"Mr. Blank presents his compli'
ments to Miss Dash, and requests the
pleasure of her company at the theat'
er Thursday evening next
Awaiting and hoping for an early
and favorable reply, we are, yours
very truly, Blank & Co.
The writer of this remarkable ef-
fusion Is a young business man who
ia a partner in a large furniture con-
Germ. He attends to a large proper
ton Of the correspondence Of the firm,
and, Of course, signs the firms name
thereto. So absorbed was he in bust
ness that he concluded his invitation
with the stereotyped sentence above.
and. to cap the climax, signed the
firms name to 1t. The fair recipient,
however, appreciated the situation,
and the young man was thunderstruck
to receive a letter addressed to him
personally, but containing the follow
ing reply to his invitation:
"Messrs. Blank & Co.: Your favor
Of recent date to hand and contents
noted. In reply will say we accept
the proposition therein made and hold
the goods ordered subject to yr. fur
Their instructions. Very respectfully,
Miss Dash & Co."
Explanations and apologies followed
says the New York Times, and the
invitation was duly accepted, but the
matter was too good to be kept
secret. and for some time after life
was made a burden to that young
man. Even the meaningless query,
"How's business?" sufficed to drive
him frantic.
