Chinese at DominoeS.

The domino craze has struck the Local
colony of Chinese and fan tan has been
given up for the time being. The Chi
ncse game is played differently from
the American one. Their dominoes are
larger and of better quality than the
kind usually seen here and the spots
are white and red. The backs are OF
ebony. The Chinese game is similar to
a card game, but it is unlike any card
game played here with the exception
that the Chinese have jack pot.
I'VE have no 'straights' in Chinese
games." said one last night who was
watching the tables in place on State
street, "and in nearly all of our games
there is 4 jackpot. We have to dc
something to while the time away.
When there is nothing doing VIC don't
want to talk all the time, CT play set
back; like the people who are always
twenty-four hours behind the times.
Dominoes are played gccd deal in
China, but it is only recently that the
game has been introduced among the
Chinese here. 1t is cutie !, craze now

Zola'R Strenuous Lie.

The strenuous life is not new. For
strenuosity that is the real thing one
must read Vizetelly's newly published
Life of Emile Zola." CHASTITY, grisly
was Zola's early struggle in Paris. He
starved with his grisette in a garret.
He wrote plays and they were not ac-
cepted. lie wrote novels and they fell
fat. He persevered, however, and
finally came into his own, into fame
and fortune. His literary work may
not last, but he will live as the friend
of Dreyfus. He was a poseur as re-
former. His attempt to duplicate Bal
zac's Human Comedy in the Rougon-
Macquart series of novels was, it must
be confessed, failure. But zola
worked without ceasing. and he had
his reward. such as it was. That he
could not enter the French Academy
was the great grief Of his life His
exclusion was just, for his writings
were hardly literature. He will live
with Voltaire as the friend OF the per-
secuted and oppressed. His Life is
a bitter, strong story of man whose
chief gospel was work, work and ever
more work. And when finished the
book 1 wondered what became Of the
little srisette with whom he starved in
the garrett in the early days. Poor lit
tie grisette; she was surely responsible
for much that was best III Zola.-St.

helping by advice.
''Why don't you go into the field
before it comes" asked one, 'and
watch?''
This he decided to do. Near the
centre of the field stood huge stump.
The tree had been cut down years be-
fore. and used for rails, but one cut
of the log-a mere shell now lay
near the stump, and beside this Mr..
Clark seated himself, in the early
twilight, and waited.
For some reason best known to him.
self. perhaps, he had chosen to seat
himself facing the railway and with
his back to the farmhouse. His eyes
were on a level with the top of the
wheat; he could hardly fail to see
anything that might come within the
fence. either before or on either side
of him.
All was STILL. and at last he decided
to go back to the house. But. as he
arose from his cramped position and
turned. with his back to the field. he
found he had worked himself into the
condition of frightened boy. who
dares not look back for fear lie will
see something. and dares not quicken
his steps for fear that he will run.
But almost ut the moment that he
turned. the sound of the bell broke
out sharp. distinct and aggressiveiy
near. behind him.
But when he turned at the fence
there was nothing in sight: even the
wheat was still. except where he had
just passed through it.
Tie next day Mr.. Clark took one OF
his best young COWS to the widow.
'"It will be winter soon." he said;
"and w, got more than have stable

take care of her for the milk and but

The bell rang no more after that. and
it was more than nine days wonder
and talk: but. as has been !ntimated
before, sensations were scarce in that
primitive neighborhood.
Years afterwards, some one found
rusty cow-bell with a broken tongue
in the hollow log. and it revived the
story OF the haunted wheat field.
"No."-said Tommy Garrett-a man
grown when they mentioned it to him:
II did not intend to scare Mr.. Clark
the first time. I'd got the bell. and
was coming through the field. playing
that was Brindle, when he came out.
That made me think Of getting him
out again. 1t was easy to take the
tongue in my hand when he'd get too
close, and it was fun! I'd have rung

night I chased him. No. my mother

Second Fire in Orphanaee.


The Thornwell Orphanage Seminary
building at Clinton has again suffered
from fire. The flames caught in the
roof from a defective fue AMI was
burned to the ground.
Workmen had just finished testing a
new furnace and the building had
been closed for the day. The fire was
discovered early, but as the town has
not yet put in its waterworks, the ef-
forts to put out the flames were Of no
avail. The fire soon reached an
eighty-five foot tower and became a
huge pillar Of flames.
Efforts were then diverted to the
protection Of the Mccormick home, a
dormitory building On the orphanage
campus, and the recitation hall Of the
Presbyterian college, both Of which
were threatened. Both buildings were
adequately protected.
The Thornwell seminary for or
phans, which was the name Of the
burned building, was dedicated in 1888
by Governor Hugh S. Thompson,
whose death in New York a few days
ago the people are now lamenting.
The building was in process OF con.
struction for eighteen months during
which period the labor and other bills
were promptly met at the end of each
week, though at no time were the
funds in hand sufficient to pay them
a week in advance.
This was the main educational struc-
ture Of the large institution and con-
tanned in addition to large chapel
some six ,ciass rooms. The loss is
eight thousand dollars, with only one
thousand dollars of insurance.
1t falls, therefore, as a heavy blow
upon an institution which only few
days ago had a similar loss in the
burning of memorial hall, the dining
hall of the orphanage. Help is need
ed as never tefore.

THE CONSERVATIVE.

At twenty. as you proudly stood
And read your thesis, brotherhood,
If l remember right, you saw
The fatuous faults of social law.
At twenty-five you brared the storm
And dug the trenches of reform.
Stung by some gadhy in your breast
Which would not let your spirit rest.
At thirty-6ve you made pause
To sum the columns of the cause;
You noted. with unwilling eye.
The needless world had passed You by.
