Canned White Man.

Nearly all the edibles shipped to the
mining camps about Nome during the
early days of the gold fever came in
the shape of canned goods Thereby
hangs this tale.
An arrival at one of the camps
stopped at roadhouse for few days
until he could decide in what portion
of the country he would stake his
claim. Among the baggage he brought
with him was a phonograph, probably
the first one ever seen in that country.
A crowd of curious Esquimaux stood
by looking in amazement at the ma
chine. The visitor, thinking the in
strument might cause them some
amusement, started it going. The ma
tives stood looking at one another in
awe. None could solve the mystery
until one fellow volunteered that he
had discovered what it was.
He declared that it was canned
white man.

voked demonstration that puts the life of the arrested
person peril he may defend it. But in the James
such testimony. AS stated by the papers,
the officer did show weapon and find
evidence that he had weapon his person when he
was killed Under such circumstances it is surely the
prerogave OF Judge to refuse instructions for the
defense that have foundation in the facts proved
by the testimony.
# the arresting officer had shown weapon and
threatened its use in such way put his prisoner il

the officer first the element of sedefense properly
in the and the instruction right But lacking
these facts, such instruction outside the testi
mony and is calculated hinder the enforcement of the
law by equipping those who break it with defense if
they murder the officers who execute it.
We do not wish to be put in the catalogue of those
who make it business to criticize courts. We do not
impugn the ability mpeach the independence of the
Tulare Judge We merely say What think of the
danger of extending the plea of self defense justify

Jade as Medicine.

Everything in China of any rarity
whatever is certain to be dragged into
the pharmacopoeia of the Chinese ply
sician. Jade is no exception to the rule.
1t may be swallowed as a powder or in
little pieces the size of hemp seed for
various stomachic complaints. Even
pockmarks and scars may be obliter-
ated by being daily rubbed with piece
Of pure Jade. 1t is also considered to be
of a moist nature, and we read of an
imperial favorite of the eighth century
who was cured Of excessive thirst by
holding a fish-shaped jade in her
mouth And so when the tomb Of the
great commander, Ts'ao Ts'ao. third
century, A. D., was opened 200 years
after his death among the usual OBJ
jects found in such circumstances was
a large silver bowl full of water. That
the water had not dried up was ac-
counted for by the presence in the
bowl of jade boy three feet in height.
Jade is chiefly brought from the
K K'unlun or Koulkun range. between the
desert of Cobb and Tibet; from Khoten
or Ilchi, in Yarkand and from still far
ther to the west. In the tenth century,
A D., the latter was practically known
as the Jade hills district. though it does
not appear that any jade has ever been
found here.-Nineteenth Century.

AmericuS' Map.

A map of America, which was re-
ponsible for the naming of the New
World for Americus Vespucci. instead
Of calling il Columbia in honor of
Christopher Columbus, will be one of
the interesting relics exhibited at the
Worlds Fair from the Vatican. The
map was made at the town of ST. Die,
Lorraine, by Martin WaldseemuHer,
and was recently found by Professor
Fisher. In preparing a map of the
world, as it was then known, Waldsee-
muller happened across a letter from
Americus Vespucci to his patron, Lo-
renzo de Medici. dated 1901, in which
he referred to the newly discovered con-
tinent. Waldseemuller marked this
practically unknown terra firma Amer
lea, as he had first heard Of il through
Americus Vespucci. The latter prob
ably never knew that the new land had
been called by his name. and it was
not his fault that Columbus did not re-
ceive the honor due for making the
discovery

The MexicGH PeOH.

The typical peon, Indifferent to change
and progress, is affectionate and faith
full in all family relations, and sets an
example in domestic life which might be
copied with advantage by many Ameri-
cans. Old age is respected and cared
for. The artistic tendencies existent
in his mixed and ancient ancestry are
by no means extinct in the peon of to-
day, and especially is this true of the
Mexican women, who display in their
love for flowers and music and the
beautiful generally tastes which are
none too universal among white people
in this Western country. AS a worker
also the Mexican woman is infinitely
more industrious and faithful than the
man. She is a good mother, generally
speaking although her children as a
rule betray a singular lack of grit. The
boys seem worse than the girls in this
respect. A tap on the shoulder from the
mother will cause an S-year-old boy to
yell for ten minutes, unashamed and
uncorrected. Boys at play together
burst into walls concerning injuries,
mental or physical, minute to invisible
ity. At the same time, however, it
must be conceded that the fiendish
whoops in which the American boy
voices his reasonless ecstacy are con-
spicuous by their absence. Neverthe-
less when the Mexican is grown and
has imbibed to excess of the new wine
he will make uD for a more subdued
past by sounds as hideous and maniacal
as any American youngster can present
to a shuddering audience.-SOuthern
Workman.

He had been told when he signed the
shipping articles that placing his name
on the paper was a matter of form,
more for his own protection than any
thing else. His intention was to make
a trip to the Orient as a sort of as
sistant to the purser. When he found

As he spoke he had been crowded

ray vanished and all was dark again.
He took a train that night for the

SULPHURING vINES-A. s.. Wei
mer. Cal All the large vineyardists
of California sulphur their vines as a
protection against mildew and thrips
The method used is the sulphur bellows.
which is so constructed that the oper-
ator can expel material without ex-
cess, thereby saving large percentage.
There is receptacle on top OF the
bellows proper which is filled with DOW
dered sulphur. A tube passes from the
bellows through the sulphur to the lid.
This tube has a cap which has four
long holes cut in it and is kept on the
tube by little brass spring. When
forcing air through, the tube lifts the
cap up to the holes and forbes the DOW
dered sulphur out of the discharge
tube.
