CHINESE TRADE GUILDS.
They Pass ON All Disputed Questions
of Labor and Food,

They Pass on All Disputed Questions
of Labor and Food.
The laborers in China work long
hours, and their meals are supplied by
the employer Their food consists of
rice partaken of twice day, with now
and then a few vegetables or pieces Of
salt fish or pork as a relish. Tea is also
furnished to them in unlimited Quanti-
ties. They begin work as soon as day
light appears and continue until be-
tween s and Q o'clock at night, the re-
cent introduction of kerosene oil length
ening their hours of labor. The work
man eats and sleeps in the shop where
he is employed
Not only do the male workers have q
trades union or guild OF their own, but
so also have the employers. To these
guilds are referred all disputed ques-
lions of labor and food, which, as
rule, are amicably settled. The opera
tives seem to take it for granted that
their employers can properly claim ev-
cry moment OF their time from early
morning until night unless about thir-
ty minutes set apart for each meal Of
rice and vegetables be excepted. When
the two guilds fail to arrive at salts
factory settlement Of a dispute the en-
ployers simply close up the shops.
Canton boasts of over seventy trades
guilds. These guilds have fine halls
and spacious courtyards, where their
members meet daily and discuss the. af-
fairs of their respective trades and
other matters.

there today. No, haven't watched him closely every day for eight years, and 1t were asked if were positive it was the very same toad. l should be obliged to say No
 But that toad has lived under my barn for eight years known to mum Der of people, and they all maintain that it is the same toad, and that 1t grows larger and fatter every year. It is well known that tOads have a strong homing instinct, and I have no reason to suppose that these people are all mistaken. At any rate, there is a toad living under the barn now, and he is very fine specimen, too. Every warm evening at sundownF or a little later, out hops my rough-skinned old friend, and begins his nightly war on the bugs and moths. ants and beetles, caterpil- lars, grasshoppers, spiders and snalls which are unfortunate enough to have been matched in the vicinity. He hasa long sticky tongue, attached i'll front and free at the back, and when any things. small crawls, ,creeps or flies with in reach, that tongue flies out, and as it is whisked back into place, the luck less prey goes with it. Sometimes, when go out to the barn at night, I leave my lantern outside for the hene- fit of the toad. Not that he needs a light to see his way about, but the lantern attracts many insects, and this the toad seems to know as well as do for I usually find him within the circle of light, making good use of his oppor- tunity. -..-.-.
 Yesterday, he shed his old skinwhieh split down the back and was pulled off much as a coat might have been, with the aid of his hind legs believe he ate it-he usually does-but at any rate he is to-day arrayed in bright new. suit which he should feel quite proud of,, if a toad is ever proud of anything. His eyes are wonderful. and altogether he has a curious beauty of his own. Yet he is not admired by most people-he is respected, that is all. Not long ago 2 little girl picked him up, and would have liked him. think, had not her mother reproved her. and told her the venerable falsehood about toads creat- ing warts upon the hands which touch them. The toad does, when annoyed or frightened, eject from his skin an acrid fluid, but 1t does not cause warts. or anything else, to grow. Its real use saw only the other day, when a puppy playfully picked up my big, fat tenant, The taste was evidenty very disgusting to the dog and he not only dropped the toad, but his own tail as well, and ran away, frothing at the mouth in his at tempt to get rid of the medicine, which I feel sure has cured him of meddling with harmless toads.

THE JAPANESE so1D1ER-sP1RIE

No wonder the little Jepanese were able to lick the big Russians on the field of battle. Major Seaman of the United States army has returned to this country after a visit to the head quarters of Field Marshal Oyama at Mukden, and he says that there has been but one case of desertion in the whole army of Japan, and he was fanatic who left the army to personally seek out General Kuropatkin that he might kill him. Of court martials there have been but twelve during the entire hostilities, although Dr. Seaman makes the interesting statement that 157 men committed suicide for the reason in some cases that they were deprived of the privilege of going to the front on account of physical disability, or be- cause they would not allow the Rus sians to take them prisoners of war.
 Who could stand before such men? Any soldiers, except, perhaps, those of the United States of America?

STUDENTS JOKE ON MAYOR.

Latter Entertains Sultan of zarn-
 zibar" And Suite at Cambridge.
 A telegram recently received by the Mayor of Cambridge, England, and reading. "The Sultan of Zanzibar will today be at Cambridge, 4:l7, for a short visit; could you arrange to show him buildings of interest and send carriage?" marks the opening scene i'll one of the most audacious and care- fully planned practical jokes ever per- petrated by undergraduates. What subsequently, happened read more like an extract from Gilbertian coirr- edy than a narrative of plain fact. It Is told in the London Mail asfollows:
 "On receipt of the telegram MT. Campkin, the Mayor, and the town clerk, MT. Whitehead, an old Emmahel College man, determined to. do the honors of the town to their distinguish ed guest as well as was possible at such short notice.
 Accordingly reply was sent to the address given in London, saying that a carriage would be in waiting and of- fering to provide refreshments. Later in the afternoon another telegram was received by the Mayor, as follows: Telegram received with thanks. Un. able to arrive till 5:43. No time for dinner
 An hour or two later passengers in Liverpool Street Station saw four gentlemen with dark complexions, ar- rayed in gorgeous flowing garments and brilliant turbans on their heads, drive up to the station. The were ac- companied by gentleman in ordinary clothes. the interpreter, Mir. Henry Lucas,' the signer of the dispatches. The four gentlemen were Prince Mukasa Ali and three members of his suite. MT. Lucas took tickets for Cambridge and the party on arriving in due course drove to the Guild Hall, where they were received by the Mayor and the town clerk, the former wear in his chain of office.
 Here it was explained that the Sul- tan himself was unfortunately unable to come, and so his place had been l taken at the last minute by his uncle. Prince Mukasa Ali. Refreshments were offered and declined, and, as the prince announced that he must go back by the 7.05 train to Liverpool street, the
 party went into the main room of the Guild Hall, where a bazaar was being ing held, at which, however, the prince made no purchases.
 Meantime news of distinguished strangers arrival had got about, and as the party came down the steps from
 the Guild Hall to enter the carriage large crowd cheered heartily, the prince gracefully acknowledging the sa- llutation, and even distributing some largess. F. .'.-' .- .~.s':s >'-sl Kings College Chapel was natural-

ly, the first sight to be seen, but, per- haps for religious reasons, it was thought, the prince declined to go in- but, perhaps for religious reasons, it was thought, the prince declined to go isioe. From Kings his royal high ness went for a few moments into Clare, and then, passing Trinity Hall, wen in to Trinity College. As they passed into the great court the visitors stopped, struck with admiration, and, llfting up their hands, expressed their wonder.
 The visitors, indeed, except upon this one occasion, spoke very little, but ashamed continually and addressed each other by signs on their hands.
 Thence the party visited the fellows gardens and the backs But Prince Mukasa complained of the cold, so they returned and visited St. Johns College, where his royal highness was especially delighted with the bridge of signs and seemed much interested on hearing of its famous prototype.
 Time, however, was now short, and after walk up Trinity street the prince and his suite took leave fotheir kind hosts and drove off to the station, having first expressed their deepest gratitude for the reception accorded them.
 l On arriving at the station a strange incident occurred, which if it had been | witnessed by the Mayor or the town clerk, must have aroused their greatest suspicious. The prince got out of the vehicle, and gaining the platform through considerable crowd, began to march majestically up the long platform, paying no attention to the lremonstrances of the railway officials or of MT. Lucas. Then suddenly he turn ed round and, followed by his suite, proceeded hastily to the exit of the station. Passing out, the Africans, though surrounded by crowd of spec tators, bade farewell to Mir. Lucas and, leaping hastily into a couple of han
