Where Four States Mat.

It is odd to reflect that it is pos
sible for one to be in four states at
the same time. Yet there is one
such spot in the United States.
CHANGING at a map of the United
States, one finds an intersection be-
tween two straight lines, where
Colorado, Utah, New Mexico and
Arizona meet. The place is not
often visited, as it is not easily
reached. The stone erected by gov
eminent surveyors is on the top of
q spur in the Carriso mountains.
The nearest railway town is Man
cos, Colo, nearly a hundred miles
from the "four corners" The re-
gion about was once densely popu-
lated by cliff dwellers, but there are
now no human beings within miles.
Some years ago the Indians Destroy
ed the boundary shaft. It was not
replaced until 1904, probably be-
cause a long time elapsed before the
authorities knew the old one had
been wrecked.

Heart Power,

The weight of the blood expelled
at each contraction of the left ven
tricle of the heart is about four
ounces. The multiplication of this
number gives us two and a quarter
foot pounds-that is, a force capa-
bic Of raising that number of
pounds one foot high-as the work
performed at ea~A contraction Of
the left ventricle. In an adult per-
son in good health there are per-
formed some seventy-five such con-
fractions per minute. Adding the
work done by the right ventricle,
which is about one-third that of the
left, we find that the force expend-
ed by the human heart in twenty
four hours would suffice to raise 1870
tons weight one foot high.-New

Appropriate Sentiment.

Many years ago the energetic
Professor Schwarz was conducting
q musical society. They were study
ing Mendelssohn's elijah" and had
reached the chorus, "Hear US, Baal
hear, mighty god"
The mems voices were booming
out generously when the conductor
cried out: "No, no! De dreadful
vowel!. Don't say Bale. Soften
q leetle. Give de more musical
sound-Ball'-
W~hereupon the chorus took up
the strain again, clear us Bawl--
hear us Bawl!" But they quickly
realized the peculiar fitness Of the
sentiment and broke down in laugh
ter, to the great amazement of the
little German, who never saw the
joke, but who returned reluctantly
to the old pronunciation.

THE CHINESE CODE.
Il 10 Older Than Any 0thsr That 10
Now In Use.

W." ~ WV
It may not be generally known
that China has an ancient and elab-
crate, not to say voluminous, code
Of written laws. In point OF an
tiquity it is by far the Oldest Of all
codes now in force. Only such in
struments as the Decaiogue or the
code of Hammurabi seem ancient
beside it. If the code of Justinian
had been continuously operative
since it's PRONUNCIATION it would still
be youthful as compared with this
Chinese product. 1ntrinsically it
consists of some twenty-four vol
umes, in the literary language of the
empire, and it not only cosers The
genera; field of substantive civil and
criminal jurisprudence, but it also
touches upon nearly every phase of
human interest and duty, for the
Chinese conception of law is broader
than the occidental and includes
many subjects which western jurists
would regard as belonging to the
domain of ethics or etiquette.
Independently of its contents the
external character of this code af-
fords a guarantee Of its permanence.
It is said to consist of the accumu-
lated DEGREES of the emperors, dat
ing back twenty centuries, collected,
revised and arranged in logical or
der, and is thus an application upon
IN elaborate scale of the system Of
adjudicated precedents which forms
the foundation of our Anglo-Saxon
jurisprudence. But in China the
respect for precedent and written
is much greater than with
"A quotation from Confucius
has settled many a quarrel, arbitrat-
ID many a dispute"
The only class at all correspond
ing to our lawyers is that known
u "searchers," whose business it is
10 find a precedent according to
which q litigated question may be
decided. With such notions thus
rooted a code containing the
presidents Of ages and embodying
he sum OF Chinese juridical philos-
'phy is not apt to be seriously dis
even by the mighty upheaval
now taking place in the Celestial
,mpire.-Charles Sumner Lobingier
