CHINA MAKES A FEEBLE PROTEST.
Objects to Interference by France and Japan
Within Sovereign Chinese Domain.

Peking, Aug. 29.-China made protest TO
France and Japan on August 10 against the
covenant Of their recent agreement proVloinS
for interference in the vast regions OF the SOW
ereien Chinese domain. The protest has re-
suited in a remarkable suppression by the au-
thorittes of public matters. It is charged that
China has been browbeaten from. her rights
owing to the cowardice Of the present Chinese
government, the covering position OF the
throne and its overlooking by Japan.
The protest, which the Wal Wu Pu, or Board
of Foreign Affairs. for the purpose Of not giving
ofYence modified to mild character, is to the
effect that the agreement of China's allied op-
Moments is mot to be considered as right" The
nrotest has aroused the indignation Of the Jap
anese. who have ignored 1t. leaving the French
hare to persuade the Wal WI Pu to drop 1t.
The attitude of foreigners here has reached
a stage of pronounced antagonism to the Jap
anese especially among those belonging to the
nations which are the allies Of Japan. This
aptagonism has been largely provoked by
Ianan,s constant success both in Corea and
Manchuria-
new movement headed by Chang Chin Tung
has been started among the Chinese to promote
native enterprises in Fu5en. for the purpose of
offsetting the efforts of the japanese to obtain

she could hide it.
When no one was looking she picked
out a tiny spruce tree in the held
where she often played, and under this
tree she planted her shiny quarter
Then she ran away to play, happy IN
the thought that her precious money
was safe.
Next morning she went to look at It.
She dug and dug all around the tree,

all the other little spruce trees, for
strange to say. they all looked so
much alike that she could not exactly
remember which one was the tree
where she buried her treasure, She
never found the money, but she learn
ed two things-flrst, money is a great
care in itself. and Of no use unless it's
in use; second, buried money is as
good as no money.
The next money Elsie had was
whole dollar bill. She could hardly
believe that the little rectangle OF
green paper was four times as good
as the shiny money she had lost
They had to explain to her that four
shiny silver quarters had been locked
up for her in Uncle Sans big treasure
house, and the green bill was just to
say that she could buy a dollars
worth of something and he would pay
the silver or gold for 1t. The bill she
hid on a shelf behind the clock. and
on rainy days she would climb up and
look at it and plan what she would buy
with it at Christmas time.
When Christmas really came she
went with auntie TO the town TO spend

Goose Pet Of London Market.

Tie tame goose Patsy who FOR the
last three years has been the pet OF
the Farringdon street fish market, has
died, and a new goose has been chosen
TO take her place.
The old Patsy was a happy go lucky
Irish goose She had her little kennel
inside shop and during the daytime
wandered freely about the fish market
She was friendly with everybody from
the women selling lemons at three a
penny at the door to the big burly
poulterer, her own particular master.
But the new Patsy is a totally differ
ent bird, an English goose weighing
nearly Il pounds, and altogether n
much finer bird than the old one. She
is typically English in character. She
is slow to make friends and easily
takes offence.
She is certainly very fine goose
said one of the salesemen, but she
isn't like the old Patsy. We miss the
twinkle in her eye--the Irish humor.

Washington and the Corporal.

1t is told of George Washington,
that upon one occasion, he rode by a
group of soldiers, who evidently did
not know him.
The men were engaged upon diff
cult piece of work; that of trying to
raise a heavy beam to the top of some
military fortifications.
The corporal was shouting at the
top of his voice, but otherwise doing
nothing
"Why aren't YOU helping them?'
Washington asked quietly. Every
man counts"

You do not seem TO recognize that |

Washington replied, but find it diff

leaving, Just call upon Washington

Tame Geese Brought Back Wild Ones.

The Shakers in Alfred kept a large
flock of geese in the pond at the foot
of the hill, and on the shore they built
q house with en- opening in the water,
so that the geese could swim inside,
with a door arranged to drop down
so that they could not get out, Every
night the geese would come into the
house, and in the morning they would
be liberated, and allowed to swim
around the pond in search for food.
One day in the fall q large flock of
wild geese alighted in the pond and
mingled with the flock Of tame geese.
Toward night both flocks arose and
few away, and that was the last
