THE PEOPLE OF PARIS.

Their First Movements In Revolu.
lions Are Usually Generous.
I know the men Of the people in Par
Is too well not to know that their first
movements in times of revolution are
usually generous and that they are
best pleased to spend the days imme-
diately following their triumph in
Boosting Of their victory, laying down
the law and playing at being great
men. During that time It generally
happens that some government or 9th
er Is set up. the police return to their
posts and the Judge to his bench, and
when at last u great men consent to
step down to the better known and
more vulgar ground Of petty and mali
cious human passions they are no
longer able to do so and are reduced
to live simply like honest men. Be
sides, we have spent SO many years In
|~insurrections that there has arisen
among Us q kind Of morality peculiar
to times of disorder and a special code
for days Of rebellion. According to
these exceptional laws, murdLI is toll
Grated and havoc permitted, but theft
. strenuously forbidden. although this.
whatever n may say. does not pre-
vent a good deal of robbery from oc-
curing upon those days for the simple
reason that society in a state of rebel
lion cannot be different from that at
any other time. and it will always con-
tain q number of rascals who as far as
they are concerned scorn the morality
Of the main body and despise its point
Of honor when they are unobserved.-

TIDAL FLUx AND REFLux.

Complicated Movements OF the Bill

Those who see the rise and fall Of
the tides in our Atlantic harbors sell
dom think Of the wonderful course
|of the ocean waves which aus the
tidal dux and redux. Such pillows not
only cross the sea, but dow from ocean
to ocean, and in this way complicated
movements are set going.
Thus, for instance, once In every
twelve hours the moon raises q tide

When this billow passes the Cape Of
Good Hope at noon It's successor is al

billow has reached the Azores islands
ct midnight the second 10 rounding the
cape. and a third has come into ex-
istence in the southern ocean. BY 4
o'clock In the morning following its
passage of the cape the tide billow
reaches the English channel, and there
the shallow waters delay it so much
that It does not arrive at the strait Of
Dover until 10 a. n. Here the mar
rowing channel causes the tide to rise
very high and almost puts an end to
the wave.
In the meantime another branch Of
the billow runs around the western
side Of the British islands, rounds
the north point of Scotland and moves
slowly down the eastern coast of Eng
land until It finally flows up the
Thames and laps the wharfs OF Lon

Dix Hundred Years without Doctor.
According to Pliny, Rome fourished
for 600 years without a doctor. 1t is
maintained by some, however, that
when making this statement Pliny was
not aware that certain Greek physi-
clans resided il Rome at least during
q part Of the period named. But there
10 certainly NJ question that in the
early days Of its history physicians
were very scarce In Rome and doubt
less because there was little occasion

Of civilization maladies have multi

there has been a proportionate increase

DR.. Loye tells the following strange
story taken from the archives Of an
Austrian police officer, and relating to
an execution said to have taken place
in Vienna in 1880: A well.known ban
dit named Schavenburg was caught
together with four of his associates
and they were all condemned to
death. They were already on their
knees, ready to submit to their fate.
when Schavenburg addressed the
Judge, asking that his four compan-
IONS might be ranged in single file in
front of him at a distance of eight
feet from each other.
III, he said, after / am beheaded
| get up and walk to the first of my
comrades, will you pardon him?"
The judge thought he was pretty
safe in complying with the request
But If walk up to the second. the
third, and the fourth, will you pardon
those also?"
The judge replied that he would OBJ
tain their pardon from the emperor
The bandit was satisfied. bent his
head, received the mortal blow, and
his head rolled down; but to the great
surprise of the judge and the specta.
tors. the body got up, walked alone.

THOUSANDS OF CHINESE DIE.
Loss of Native Life and Property
Near HonGkong Appalling.

Near Hongkong Appalling.
HONGKONG, Sept 2O.-Though hun
dreds of Chinese boatmen and their
families were saved by the police and
civilians, several thousands Of the ma
tive water dwellers perished In the
typhoon, many within short distances
of the shore.
The losses in lives and property
among the Chinese were appalling. The
police stations In Hongkong are sur
rounded by Chinese identifying their
dead. The families of the Hongkong
boatmen live night and day on the
sampans, and thousands of these are
now homeless
The Chinese take the disaster calmly
and show no manifestation of grief.
One launch that was capsized had 1870
Chinese ON board. They were all
drowned
The Anglican bishop of Hongkong.
DIR. j. c. Hoare, was on the yacht Po-
mier, which stranded in Castle Peak
bay. He was on his way to visit some
neighboring islands when the storm
broke and Is reported missing.
Most of the damage was wrought on
the Kowloon peninsula. The losses are
estimated at several million dollars.
over thousand sampans and junks
are missing from Hongkong alone.
Wharves were swept away and houses
collapsed The military barracks are
in ruins. The harbor is strewn With
wreckage thrown up on shore.
The British commodore at Hongkong
reports that the British sloop Phoenix
is hopelessly damaged. The steamer
Monteagle, belonging to the Canadian
Pacific Railroad company, and the
French torpedo boat Francisque will
probably both be relocated. The French
torpedo boat Fronde is expected to be
n total wreck. A large sailing vessel
was thrown almost on top Of her.
Latest estimates are that thousand
lives were lost during the typhoon
and that the damage to property, pub.
lie and private, will amount to millions
of dollars. Twelve ships were sunk.
twenty four driven ashore, seven were
damaged, and one-half Of the native
craft in port were sunk. The shipping
trade has been paralyzed through lack
of lighters.
