Ate Heart Of Assassin.

A correspondent of the North China
Daily News describes what followed
the execution Of an assassin: When
the heart OF Hsu Hsi-lin was cut out
OF his body and had been laid before
the remains of his victim as a sacri.
fee to the late governors names,
members of his bodyguard, to signify
their zeal and hatred of the assassin,
seized Hsu's still warm heart and
cutting 1t up into mince meat boiled
1t and served the grewsome dish
among themselves to be eaten. This
seems poor way of revenging the
death of one patron, especially since
1t was due to the very ineptitude and
subsequent panic of this very brave
bodyguard that enabled Hsu Hsi-lin
to fire so many shots, without any
kind of hindrance, at the late En-
Min"

SWAY OF THE TYPEWRITER.
Important Part Played by it in Civil
LIKING the World.
(Harper'S.)


The typewriter is playing an import
ant part in civiliZing the world. The
latest invention in this line is a ma
chine capable of transcribing the Jap
anese ideogram; but typewriters i'm
printing Arabic. Syriac. Armenian. He
brew and other Oriental languages
have long been used.
In Turkey the printing of anything
from a circular letter to book can
only be done under permit from the
government. Therefore, typewriters
which imprint Turkish or Arabic char
acters are prohibited from passing
through the customs house. NeVerthe-
less, the increasing demand has some
how produced small supply. Bagdad,
city of 10000 inha bitants. has twen-
ty machines. all of which write Ara bic.
In Syria, one of the most polyglot coun-
tries in the world, Syriac, Arabic and
French writing typewriters are used
by many of the business houses. Per-
STA. which uses the Arabic script, is
learning TO adopt the typewriter. To
go farther east, a number of Hindus-
TAM writing machines are now used in
Bombay and other cities of India. Chi
nese seems to be the only language
which still resists the typewriter's en-
dearmentS.

But he dOesn seem to hear it. showing
plainly something's wrong:
Comes his faithful little spaniel for q

But the troubled little fellow sternly bids
him go away.
All alone he sits i'm sorrow with his hal,

And his eyes are red with weeping; he's
