1T Is CHASTITY GAMBLING.
Risks Taken by English Insurance
Companies on the Lives Of
Monarchs.

Policies, I'll wager, are already be-
ing taken out in London on the life of
little Alexis, the new heir to the Rus
sian throne" said an insurance agenI.
recently, reports an exchange. THE
English gamble horribly in life insur-
ance, and Alexis must appeal to them
as a wonderful risk. They will pay
high for him, though.
THE insurance rates on all royal
lives are a tribute to the power of the
nihilists and anarchists, for they are
SO huge as to be almost prohibitive
The rate on the king of England is
enormous, and among monarchs his
is the lowest rate of any. That on the
Russian car is the highest. The car
is a bad risk. Many companies would
not insure him on any consideration.
But Lloyds, the great London colt
Germ, would insure anything or any
body-Prof. Langley going up in enc
of his flying machines, a Japanese spy
about to enter Port Arthur, a Russian
battleship going into battle. And
hence Lloyds is willing to insure the
poor little Russian heir, and a certain
class of men, taking advantages of
this fact, are procuring policies upon
the baby's life.
Gambling on lives is a CHASTITY
form of sport, and l believe that it IS
practiced nowhere but in England. II
ought not be practiced there. The law
ought to prohibit it. At Lloyds, how
ever, 1t is always going on. Policies
at Lloyds are continually being taken
out on persons of eminence all owe

Cincinnati Enquirer.

business. l never have no trouble at
all.
Queer things happen sometimes?
Oh, yes, sometimes, l guess. Let me see,
now. Let me see."
Putting slowly on his cigar, the west
ern almond grower tried to think of
something queer to tell the reporter.
Finally he said:
The yellowhammers bothered me
asst harvest time. They came by thou
sands to my almond orchard, and, carry
ing of my nuts in their beaks, they
stored them in the hollow limb Of an oak.
That wouldn't do, you know.

Magic Circles outlive Superstition.

Magic circles did not go out with the
days of superstition. The holders of a
railway concession in China have drawn
a circle about Canton across which no
foreign railway may pass without their
consent. 1t is simply a belt line Of rail-
way on the outskirts of the city, with
branches running to the suburbs. The
French and English holders of railway
concessions must make terms with the
Americans before they can lay their
tracks ACROSS the belt line. In the Unit
ed States the courts usually make short
work Of such distractions, but the magic
is likely to work in. China for several
years yet. Meantime the French and
English railway men are admiring the
alertness of their competitors from this

CUPID IN CHINA.

Tn a small boat or sampan that was noored with many others, in a muddy kreek of the great river that flows past Eanton. into the China sea, lived a de- eent Chinaman, with his wife and chill hren, amongst whom was Ah-Sing, a |vell-set, sturdy youth of eighteen.
 Arising was not prodigy. He, of kourse, possessed pig-tail, long and thick: and his clothes were of coarse material and of the inevitable indigo blue; but under his shaven brows there lwinkled a pair of bright, honest eyes, and the frank expression of his ruddy lace atoned for the plainness of his fea- lures, and gave him an attraction that |nany of the river folk lack.
 Now Ah-Sing had reached his present kge without having fallen a victim to the charms of any of the maidens lround him. Had he been born to high er rank his friends would probably have chosen him wife, whose face would not have been seen till after the |wedding ceremony was over; but bmongst the lower classes of the Chi hese the ancient rules that regulate these things are perforce relaxed, and fhe river population are considerd the
 owest of5the low, so that even the poor tst of the landfolk look down upon hose who have no home but boat, and |ntermarriage is almost unknown.
 Many river girl, as she lowered a butclset over the bedside for water to make tea, had thrown admiring glances

she was not quite content. The thought that she had descended in the social scale; that she had made herself an out cast from her own people, ranked in her mind and disturbed her peace.
 Then, too, Ah-Sing had heard from an acquaintance, who worked across the river, that Tas-Shu had actually mar ried the bold beauty, Fan-She, just as Lu-Ta had predicted, and the thought of her rivals triumph added fuel to the smouldering flames of her discontent, in spite of the fact that runor also asser- ted that the rich man beat and ill-treat- !, ed his wife.
 The honest, bright-faced Ah-Sing no longer had the power that he once pos sessed to charm away his wife's sor- rows, and the poor fellow at last began to notice the evident fretfulness and ir- ritability of the once cheerful girl.
 This unhappy state of things had last ed for some time. and Ah-Sing, who was not a genius. had become so pug zled by Lu-ta's varying moods that he was almost as unhappy as his wife, when a seemingly accidental occur renee put an end to the girls regrets forever.
 It happened one evening that Ah-Sing was later than usual in reaching home after his days work and when Lu-Ta had placed before him the evening meal that she had long had in readi- ness, she left her husband to eat if alone, and retired to the further end of 4I,o 1,oo+ rr1,a ,,,ro,, VIC e ;,, ;+e e,aoo,,5 quarter, and it's beame silvered and beautified the broad river, across which she gazed sadly in the, direction of her old home. She had been there a long time, giving free rein to her sorrowfu thoughts, when her attention was at tracted by an object that came floating down. slowly and ftfully, towards the sampan. She gazed at it listlessly however, even when she discerned the outline of a human body, for Chinese feelings are not too sensitive, and g 2 dead body is no uncommon sight on tht river. But when the floating objeci struck the end of the boat, it turned over, and the moon's rays shone full or
 the dead face of Fan-She, Lu-Ta's ole playmate, and some time rival. Ther
 the tragedy of the meeting struck tht
 girl, and she gazed with a horror tor
 deep for words, on the face distorted
 even in death by hate and terror, ant
 on the cord that still bound the neck and showed how death had been infic ted. Too well did Lu-Ta know to wha
 length a passionate, evil-tempered bus band would carry his violence, and a
 she sank down in the bottom of thu sampan with her hands pressed ove I her eyes to shut out the dreadful sight
 she saw in flash the evil chances iron which she had been saved. Tn the re vulsion of feeling that rushed over her she saw Ah-Sing in his true light. an the little cramped boat tbecame to her haven of refuge. When she had recov
 cred sufficiently to scramble to her feet } she tottered into the little box-lilS : cabin, where her patient husband sa waiting, and threw herself on her knee before him while she poured out with flood of tears her confession and re morse. Poor Ah-Sing, it was anothe . puzzle for him, but he bore it manfully , and from that night began an era c peace that was never broken, for Lu-T

me before he would let thee have me. And Tas-Shu would marry Fan-She, and I hate her." she added, inconse- quently.
 What matters it whom he marries? Thou carest not for him?"
 No truly, I hate him: but Fan-She hath always vowed that she would marry better than I, and I fear she is more beautiful than I am"
 But Ah-Sing stoutly swore by all his ancestors, and by the thousand and one gods that he worshiped. that Fan-She was but miserable, one-eyed slave with skin like sackcloth, and hair like the river weed-compared with Lu-Ta; and the latter believed him, and was comforted, but still she hung back and hesitated to incur the odium of marry ing a despised denizen of the river. l At last, however, Ah-Sing prevailed and it was arranged that when old Chen-Foo made his next journey tc burn offerings at the graves of his an cestors, Lu-Ta should meet her impa- tient lover, and the pair should be made man and wife, and seek the shelter oi { the river community.
 For thou knowest," said Ah-Sing that I have moored my sampan fal down the river, in a creek near to Can ton, and when we are married thy fath CT will never think to seek thee among { the boats"
 That is true" Lu-Ta assented, "bu I shall never dare to return to this sidt of the river again, for fear he migh kill me"
 'The other side is fairer and riche than this, and l will find work in tn, great city, where I have knowledge 0 many people"
 So it was all arranged, and one morn ing very early the lovers met on th' borders of the rice-field, and fled unseei by any one across the Bridge of Tel Thousand Ages" and down the rive side, till they came to the place wher < Ah-Sing had arranged for the marriag I ceremony to be performed, on one of tn floating temples. The priests, who con duct the religious ceremonies for tn river people had-for a consideration decorated their church boat with al kinds of banners and streamers, witt plenty of the lucky red on every hand There the lovers were made man an wife, with many quaint and mysti rites, and ere the night fell they steppe on board the trim little boat, that Ah Sing had worked so hard to buy an furnish for the girl who had given u her people for him.
 And now Ah-Sing was happy, if eve a Chinaman was. Eo, too, was Lu-Ta but not quite so happy as her prou husband.
 Old Chen-Foo never found his daugh ter; probably he gave himself very littl trouble to seek for her, for daughter are terribly cheap in China, and on more or less-especially one less-nnat ters very little. If the pet singing Dir that Chen-Foo always carried abou with him had escaped from it's cag there would have been a terrible out cry; but mere daughter, he was no so foolish as to put hisself out on he account.
 Although as the time went on, Lu-T began to feel quite secure in her float ing home, surrounded as 1t was b hundreds of exactly similar boats, ye
