THE CHINESE CODE.
e 10 Older Than Any Other That 10
Now In Use.

Il 10 Older Than Any Other That 10
Now In Use.
It may not be generally known
that China has an ancient and elab-
crate, not to say 7oluminous, code
of written laws. In point of an
tiquity it is by far the oldest of all
codes now in force. Only such in
strulaents as the Decalogue or the
code Of Hap1murabi 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. Intrinsically it
consists of some twenty-four vol
umes, in the literary language of the
empire, and it not only covers the
general 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
an 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
authority is much greater than with
Us. "a quotation from Confuciu
has settled many a quarrel, arbitrat-
ed many a dispute"
The only class at all correspond
ing to our lawyers is that known
as "searchers," whose business it Is
to find a precedent according to
which a litigated question may be
decided. With such notions thus
deeply rooted a code containing the
precedents of ages and embodying
the sum of Chinese juridical philos-
ophy is not apt to be seriously dis
turbed even by the mighty upheaval
now taking place in the Celestial
empire.-CharIes Sumner Lobingie1

sat down. and Muir began to tell q
story. The waiter came around several
times, but the story was SO good moth
ing was ordered. Muir talked and talk
cd. and In between he would reach
Y e and break Off a piece Of bread
from q French loaf on the table. This
he did a good many times. The story
reminded him of another, and SO he
talked and ate bread until finally, being
very hungry. his companion broke In
with:
"Well. what shall l order for you, MI.
MUIR"
"Order?" he repeated in his abstrac-
don.
eyes, order-to eat"
He looked over at the last little re-
naming piece of bread on the plate
and said, as If waking from O dream:

That bread was bully."-Bookman.

Results.

Edwin Thorsby, son of Mr..
and Mrs. Martin Thorsby, had
the misfortune to have his arm
badly wounded last week by the
accidental discharge of a rifle
while out in the woods near -Four
Mile Creek. Edwin was carry
ing the gun when he fell over a
log and the gun was discharged.
The bullet entered the wrist and
tore mussle away from the wrist
to the elbow. Edwin was in com.
pany with several other young
lads and they tore his shirt in
strips and bound up the arm
which stopped the flow of blood
until he was brought to town.
The wound was dressed by DR..
Poppe and the boy was taken to
the hospital at Ashland.
