Public INDIGNATION Expected.

TOXIC, June IA (afternoon).-A consular
report dated May %. which tells in a
graphic but unconstitutional manner the facts
connected with the recent assaults upon
Japanese in San Francisco, will appear in
all the papers here tomorrow, and some
expression of public indignation is expected.
1t is likely however, that the papers will
conform with the official advice given them
yesterday on refraining from the publ
cation of any infiammatory matter, as any
action in defiance thereof means punish
ment, provided for in the press law.

The Value Of Diamonds.

The value Of the diamond is at so
much per carat, and up to a certain
limit the value per carat increases as
the size of the stone increases. When
a carat diamond is quoted at $125, a
diamond weighing a half carat is
counted at the rate of s75 per carat.
three-quarter carat diamonds at 500
per carat, one and one-quarter carat
diamonds at $40 per carat, one and
sone-half carat diamonds at $3.50 per
carat, one and three-quarter carat dia-
monds at $3.50 per carat, and two carat
stones at $500 per carat. Stones weigh
ing more than two carats sell at about
the same rate as that quoted for two
carat stones, and do not increase as
rapidly owing to the more limited de-
mand for the larger sized stones.-N New
York Herald.

CALLING IN PARIS.
The Concierge IS Peculiar Institu-
ton In Several Ways.


You leave your card at the door Of
the person to whom you desire to pre-
sent yourself, and there it is taken in
/ charge by that peculiarly French func-
| tionary, the concierge, says Professor
Barrett Wendell in Scribner's. At
| least in Paris, the greater part of
| French people live in large houses con-
tanning a number of apartments with
| a common entrance and staircase.
Close to the entrance door, on the level
| of the street, are some stuffy little
rooms inhabited by the concierge, or
porter, with his family. Their duty,
among other things, is to keep strict
watch on whoever goes in or out, and
Tat least one of them, often the porter's
wife or half grown daughter, Is always
1 at hand.
The. chief popularity of their temper
ament seems to be Unsuitable appetite
| At whatever hour of day or evening
| you call on a concierge you are sure to-
| find somebody eating or just risen
from table, and the atmosphere inhab-
lied by this busting parsonage seems
| Immortality laden with the fumes OF
something recently boiled
| No matter whether you call on a
| friend who lives in some unpretentious
out Of the way place or on one who
| inhabits something like palace, the
concierge is always about the same.
You can detect little difference be-
| tween those in charge of important
doors and of Insignificant They are
as like as house flies. OF course there
are private houses in Paris, with regu-
| lar domestic servants such as you
would find anywhere; but these, grand
or simple, are so unusual that You re-
member the concierge as everywhere
standing between you and further hui
man intercourse.
In response to your card, which the
concierge duly sees delivered, comes a
card, often with note, in return. If,
as is generally the case, this aeknowi-
edgment of your existence contains an
intimation of when your French ac-
quaintance may be found at home, Ell
Their habitual or for your special bene-
fit, you make your second visit at this
appointed time and thus enter into real
personal relations.
Otherwise, your intercourse has limit
ed itself to a polite exchange of cards.
Generally speaking, you never expect
or attempt to see French people socially
except when they have asked you to
one of their regular days of reception
or have made definite appointment.
/ To call on a person at any other time
to do more than leave your card with
the concierge would be an intrusive
pretense to intimacy.

How 10 Save Asphyxlated Persons.

Asphyxiation is such frequent hap
pening that every one should know
just exactly what to do in an emer-
gency. In this condition there is ac-
tual blood poisoning. The illuminat-
ing gas, escaping freely, joins with the
coloring of the blood, so that the blood
can no longer take up oxygen. The
first thing to be done If you are in the
room is to get supply of fresh air,
and that quickly. If the window
sticks, break it with a chair, a fiatiron
or anything handy If nothing else
offers, wrap any thick cloth around
your fist and use that. If you are out
side and have to go In, wet towel in
cold water, bind closely over nose and
mouth after taking several long
breaths Of fresh air, then go in and
get the window open. AS soon as pos
sible carry the patient to room where
the air is fresh. If the patient still
breathes, apply hot and cold shower
baths alternately until he can take a
long breath If the breathing has en-
tirely stopped, apply artificial respira-
ton.

as they ever were You won't live
long, Bacon pointed out, If you have
soft, fine hair, fine skin, quick
growth, large head, early corpulence,

TAKING OF PHOTOS.
tiow to Hold Camera For the Best
Results.

tow to Hold a Camera For the Best
Results.
When photographing buildings or
other objects with vertical lines, a
camera should be held perfectly level
says the Circle. Otherwise the build
ings in the picture will appear to be
falling either backward or forward,
according to the way in which the
camera was tilted
There are times, however, when the
camera may be tilted. For example,
in photographs Of clouds, waterfalls,
balloons, etc, the camera may point
upward, while in taking pictures of
people swimming or bathing, children
at work or play, ETC., it may be pointed
downward
Very successful photographs Of prom
inent speakers, parades, crowds, ETC.,
held upside down.
BY holding the camera in the way
suggested many a photographer has
secured good pictures, while others
who tried to use the camera in the
usual way made absolute failures.
Often By holding the camera by the
side of the body and pointing it back
ward one may secure pictures of chill
dren at play and of older people In
natural poses without the knowledge
of any members of the groups.
Another warning to beginners is nee
essary, Do not try to take a time ex-
posure while holding the camera in the
hand. Even if the camera is held
against the breast and respiration
stopped the action of the heart is suffi-
Gent to cause the box to yibrate and
spoil the picture.
