Special Correspondence Of Tho Journal. q
~ OSTON, March Il Some Of the
* mills Of New England are al
ready beginning ito feel the ef-
fects of the Chinese boycott on Amer
ican goods. While the manufacturers
are unwilling to admit that they are at
all concerned over the Chinese trade,
and declare that the worst effects Of
the boycott will be felt in the south,
where cheaper classes Of goods are
made, reports from a number of CEN
ters indicate that the Chinese are al
ready having their revenge. In Chico
pee, for instance, where some Of the
mills made special lines of fabrics for
the China trade, nos orders have been
received for months. Fall River has
also been affected, and in Maine the.
millowners of Wateryille and Bidde-s
ford are watching conditions in the
east with more than ordinary interest.
It has been difficult, however, to de-
termine just what the effect Of the
boycott has really been for the reason
that most of the Chinese trade is done
thru New York, the houses there or
dering goods from the New England.

where the goods may go ultimately.

The other day her mother was show
ing a visitor through the house.
"This is Jeannie's room,'' said she,
as she pushed open the door to a big
many-windowed apartment, looking out
on fine old trees.
The visitor opened her mouth with
a little gasp. The floor of Jeannie's
room was carpeted with dead leaves!
Just one of ~Jeannie's fads," ex,

windows open so the leaves will blow

An epigram, in it's primary signifi-
cation, was nothing more nor less
than an inscription, writes Edmund
Gosse in Harper's Magazine. 1t was
something written to mark a spot
or an event; it was the form of words
attached to an altar, or a monument,
or an image, to show whose image
or monument, or altar it was. If you
co~nsecrated a secular elm to Pan, you
pinned an epigram on the bark to an
nounce that fact; if you presented to
a friend an amethyst cup engraved
with a figure of Bachus, you embod-
led in an epigram your sentiments.
1t is a mistake to suppose that these
pieces we're in their first inception
satirical, but the Romans made them
so, and, as time went on, the trick
of writing them, in Latin as well as
in Greek, involved an attention to
concentrated effect. The epigram-
matist tried to fill his little glass as
full as possible, and there were bub-
bles of malice round the brim. Grad
ually the idea grew that an epigram
ought to finish with a snap; that the
very end of the last line ought to

DEER'S RACE WAS FATAL

East Boston admits it is a suburb,
but denies that it is in the class with
Lonesomehurst and Swampville, says
the Boston Journal. Yet when a deer
from the forest walks unmolested and
bold down it's main street, its claims
rs a component part of the town
might be doubted.
1t was about $50 yesterday morn
ing that a little brown deer came out
on Meridian street, having made his
way across vacant lots from the
Lynn woods, and gazed in wonder at
the buildings and the works of man.
Suddenly there was a hoarse clang
behind him, and a huge tunnel car
tore over upon him. Terrified, the
deer sprang forward, and it became
a ace between the animal and the
car, which he thought was chasing
him. The short breadth of Noodle
Island was covered in a few moments
and the victorious deer, his little
heart jumping with terror, sped
straight down to the sea, t. where
a South Ferry boat lay at the slip.
Right through the f%erryboat sped
the deer, and then, with a mighty

FOUND GREAT SALT LAKE

Jim Bridger stands forth as the
most conspicuous figure in the brief
but glorious reign of the trapper and
trailmaker in the far west. The
greatest fur hunter and the greatest
pathfinder of them all, and possess
ing the most intimate knowledge of
the Indian nature ever vouchsafed a
white man, Bridger will grow in stat
ure as time goes on and accurate
history is written.
No part of the great Rocky Noun
tain country held a secret from Jim
Bridger. He was the first white man,
after John Golfer, to view the won
ders of Yellowstone Park, and the
first to look on Great Salt Lake.
Seemingly bearing a charmed life, he
wandered through the lands of many
Indian tribes, sometimes fighting the
red men, but more often living their
life and finding the solace of true
brotherhood at the lodge fire. Every
mountain Jim Bridger climbed, every
stream he crossed, and every game

EN- of a meal any day"
Not a word had Nicola spoken to
any one since he had been brought on
board, but now he came out of the
f%orecastle and approached Bradd. He
held out to him the stiletto with the
hilt towards his enemy. l never saw
such a grand gesture of utter surren-
der as that. If the Italian had filled
the air with an eloquent speech it
could not have been half as impress

comber of twenty years, he appreciate

Keep vol bloomin' knife" he said,
and the broad, freckled face broke into
a smile.
In that most monotonous and very
dirty Brazilian town, Rio Grande DO
Sui, two very drunken men walked
arm and arm down towards the quay.
One sang a coster song in a deep bass
and the other in a screechy tenor a
b~arcarole. They were Bradd and
Nicola, and the sea feud was at an
end.
