English Estimate Of Emerson.

A single short work of Emerson's.
the essay on Compensation" is enough
to convince one that this was man Of
true genius. We have never read any
thing in Thoreau approaching that and
other works Of Emerson in originality
or beauty. But Emerson is the best Of
the American writer's. Was it Henry
James who called him 1.-The unfallen
MANI! One cannot imagine an intellect
which failed to admire "Compensat ton"
or which was convinced by its trans
cendentalism. - London Saturday Re-

ArtstOcracy of Wealth Not PRONG h,

Aristocracy of Wealth Not Probe BILE.
Whatever the tendencies of wealthy
Americans of the present day, it is ex-
tremely improbable that an aristocracy
OF wealth should ever come into being.
! 1t has been seen that an aristocracv
depends chiefly upon two conditions
the continued possession and exercise
OF power and the consequent unity of
aims and ideals.
The aristocratic body in England. for
instance. is self conscious; it's members
are united by mutual understanding.
They acknowledge certain well recoe-
nized laws Of life and manners. They
depend upon each other to uphold these
laws. Individually. wealthy Ameri-
cans may be both self conscious and
self assertive. but collectively they are
antagonistic to one another. The &C.
cumulation Of wealth implies struggle,
and struggle does not bring forth the
kind of qualities which make of the
gentle and stately men and women Of
Vandyke's canvases one great family.

Foolish Order of 81 Monarch That Was
DeathblOVv to the
Chinese Navy.

OF the navy of one of the oldest of old
countries, China. very little is known.
That China was once much interested in
sea affairs, is, however, certain. 1t is
said that long before any other peoples,
the Chinese knew something of the Won
ders of the lodestone, and even if the
mariners compass was not invented by
them. their knowledge of the magnet
was certainly sufficient to aid them in
navigating their ships, and helped to
extend their trading, and probably their
battles, into strange waters. So the
Chinese were bold voyagers ages ago,
says an account of Some Strange
Fleets" in st. Nicholas. On their cruis-
ers' bows was painted an eye, to
denote watchfulness; and red, a sacred
color to them, was displayed In strips
of cloth which decorated the various
parts of the ship
Chinese enterprise on the sea unfortu-
nately received death blow from one
of their own weak and self-loving mon
archs whoforbade his subjects to cruise
in waters outside of the China sea, for
fear they should learn in their travels
any ideas which might lead them to re-
bel against his tyrannical government
He also ordered, vain and unwise man
that he was, that all vessels should be
made in the shape of his imperial foot!
Alas, poor ships! this strange shape
destroyed all seaworthy qualities, and
any ambition in the direction of Chi
nese navy was for the time extin-
guished.

HOUSEKEEPING SYNDICATE.
Thirteen Families in New York State
Try Cooperative Boarding to
Solve Servant Problem.

In the enterprising town of Holly,
Orleans county, N. Y, new movement
has been started, with the object of
solving the servant girl problem, says
the Buffalo Commercial
Thirteen families, comprising 20 per-
sons of the best social and business
standing, have formed a cooperative
boarding association, all members to
bear an equal share of the expenses.
Gradually the various objections
were overcome, and the members are
not only well satisfied with the prog
ress made, but think that in short
time noticeable decrease in their liv-
ing expenses will be evident
Upon joining the association, mem
bers contributed SIS to create fund
with which to equip the kitchen. With
this money two ranges and dishes of
every description have been purchased;
also other articles necessary to the
culinary department In the dining
room each family furnishes the table
linen, dishes and other articles for its
own USE
All expenses for provisions and the
services of the cooks and mattresses
are then borne pro rata by the mem
bers. There will be considerable curl
osity to know whether the experiment
can be made a permanent success.

AN ECLIPSE IN CHINA.
There Was Great COmmotiOn
When the Black Spot Appeared
ON the Moon.

In China an eclipse of the moon is
regarded as an evil augury for the
emperor, intended to warn him to ex-
anime himself and correct his faults.
Hence an eclipse is always looked on
as an affair of state, and the greatest
care is taken to calculate the time
when it will happen. M. Edmund
Plauchut, in his book, China and the
Chinese" describes scene he wit
messed when the moon played the as
tronomers of Picking mean trick. The
imperial astronomers announced that
on February 7, at eight o'clock in the
evening, the dragon which wanders to
and fro in the regions OF the air would
endeavor to swallow the moon. The
eclipse was to be total, so the astrono-
mers had warned the people that the
attack of the monster would be terri
BILE, and that the moon would very
likely succumb if the shouts and noise
of the gongs did not put the dragon to
flight. Long before the appointed time
millions of Chinese issued from the
towns 10 the open country, there, nose

TO get gongs had provided themselves
with saucepans, rattles, pieces of bam-
boo stems and immense quantities of
little red firecrackers. But what
disappointment! At eight o'clock the
gazing multitudes saw the moon rise
full, unspotted disc, without a sign of
anything unusual. At nine she was
still shining pure. Just as all hope
was disappearing a tremendous noise
began on every side, for the watchers
saw black spot advancing slowly
across the face of the moon. 1t is i'm
possible to describe the rage with
which the Chinese beat their pans and
gongs, whirled their rattles and let off
the crackers. The dragon was evil

after looking up at the full moon for
an hour and seeing nothing more of
the black spot, the crowds, jubilant
over their victory, began to dispense.

NEW WAY TO CUT TREES.
Electrically Heated Platinum Wire
Does Work of Saw in Much
Less Time.

1t is reported in the German press
that successful experiments have been
made in various forests of France in
cutting trees by means of electricity.
platinum wire is heated to a white
heat by an electric current and used
like saw. In this manner the tree
is felled much easier and quicker than
in the old way; no sawdust is pro-
duced, and the slight carbonization
caused by the hot wire acts as pre-
sentative of the wood. The new meth
cd is said to require only one-eighth
of the time consumed by the old saw
ing process.
Some day, says the New York Trib-
une, this system will doubtless find a
trial in the United States. OF course,
it is necessary to provide source of
electricity, and unless the latter is
cheap the operation just described
would not be economical. However,
nearly all districts in which timber is
cut are provided with streams, and
these can often be utilized for power.
Only small head would be necessary
for this purpose. America has been
so enterprising in the application of
electricity to industry that it is won
derful that another country should
have had chance to anticipate it in
any manner The consular report, in
which the news is conveyed, supplies
no details, however, and it is impos-
sible to say how extensively the plan
{ has been adopted.
