Saving His Dignity.

The ceremonial Of the Chinese
court, which used to include COM
plete prostration before the throne,
was once the occasion for a display
of cool audacity. In the eighteenth
century Persian envoy refused to
60 through the degrading ordeal,
and directions were given to the
officials to compel him by stratagem
to do SO. On arriving one day at
the entrance to the hall of audience
the envoy found no means Of going
in except by wicket, which would
compel him to stoop very low. With
great presence of mind and consid-
cradle audacity the ambassador
turned around and entered back
ward, and thus, according to his
own conception of etiquette, saved
the dignity Of his country from out
rage.

NAPTHA-oO PER CENT.
Says His Stove Polish Is
Dangerous.

At another of the public meetings
which Deputy Fire Commission H. Bon
ner and the members of the municipal
explosives commission are holding at
fire headquarters. it was brought out
yesterday that many stoves polishes
contained so per cent of naphtha This
dangerous preparation was in universal
use, it was said. Fifteen qnufacturers
were present at the hearing.
A L. Prescott, of j. j.. Prescott &
Co, manufacturers of stove polish, said
his firm made up a stove polish COM
posed of plumbago, varnish and naph-
tina. He explained that as it left the
factory it was about the consistency of
condensed milk, and contained about 80
per cent of naphtha. This was sold
to stove manufacturers, who diluted it
to suit themselves. Used on cold stoves
in WareroOms it was not dangerous
The domestic polish, however, put up
for household use in the hands Of igno-
rant or careless servants or others and
used on a warm stove was highly
dangerous.
I'VE do make stove polish that is not
in1ammable or explosive" Mr. Prescott
said. las a manufacturer I am heartily
in favor of any action likely to lead
to the abolition of this infiammable
stove polish from the market. It is
largely made out west. They are push
ing 1t vigorously and to keep our trade
we have to manufacture a considerable
quantity, but it is a dangerous product
to handle. We have had several seri-
Gus accidents at our factory in Newark
and 1 would be glad to see it go.
'.Naphtha is much more dangerous
than gunpowder. The infammable va
por which arises from it is invisible
and it is four times as heavy as air.
it steals along the floor and seeks out
the fire. Its great danger when spread
on a stove from which all the fire has
not disappeared is perfectly plain

the other, but at times when hits were
needed the Cubs secured them. They
are felded better than the locals.
There was something doing right
from the start, and Schultz was in it
from the moment to the finish. 1t was
largely due to the efforts of Mr.
Schultz that the Cubs carried off the
victory. for he made a home run right
off the reel and later on batted in
two runs.
The local fans had their first chance
OF seeing the new members Of the
Pirates in action. OF the youngsters.
the biggest hit was made by Goat"
Anderson, the Indiana boy, and al
though he had an error to his credit
he made himself solid with the fans
right from the start. Hallman also
performed well, while Abbaticchio did
good work at second, in spite of his
error, and gives indications Of filing
Ritchie's shoes in a most acceptable
manner.
Jack Taylor did not pitch any better
ball than Willis, but he had the ad-
vantage of keeping the hits scattered
and keeping the locals from securing
safeties at times when they would
have been dangerous. In the eighth
inning, particularly, he showed his
complete mastery Of the situation when
he let the locals down with only one
run when it appeared as if they had
a good chance of tying the score That
was the only troublesome inning he
had, and the result was never in
doubt after the first inning
