Nation of Noises.

In China night is as alive as the day
and is filed with whoops, noisy con-
versation. the singsong accompanying
work. boisterous repartee and every
other unmusical sound. In addition,
the darkness is one long howl of dogs,
cackle of geese. braying Of donkeys,
croaking of frogs, the squealing Of
pigs, the drumbeats of the policeman
and even, as some one has said, 1.-The
singing of the stars" Individually the
people are full of varieties of unsup-
pressed, violent demonstrativeness and
collectively they are only a terrific
tribal turbulence. One most appropri-
ate name for China has never been
given ii. 1t has been called the Yellow
Kingdom, the Middle Kingdom. the Ce-
lestial Empire. the Pigtail Nation, the
Sleepy Giant and others. No one Of
these is more applicable than the Ma
ton Of Noises. Noise is seemingly the
first element of Chinese life and has
been cultivated for centuries by Chi
nese talent. and in conception, develop
ment and execution presents not only
new varieties, but scores of new spe-
ries.-Cor. Montreal Standard.

What Is a Lyric?

Among the ancients lyrical poetry
was a verse to be sung to the accom-
paniment of the Tyre, or harp. In mod,
ern usage the term lyrical is confined
to songs relating to feelings or emo
lions, as distinct from descriptive
songs. For instance, the bay of Bis
cay" is song, but not lyric; while
Burns Highland Mary" is an ex-
quisite specimen of the lyric.

A Spencer special to the Char

increase made this year in the
force of employees at the Spencer

of men were called back into the

The machine and erecting shop

per cent. while a proportionate
number of additional men were
called back into the boiler shop,
blacksmith shop, paint shop, and
other departments. A correspond
ing increase in the number of ap-

The increase in the force is hailed
with great delight by all the citi-
zens of Spencer and is taken as a
sign of the return of prosperity.

The failure today of the Built
man Company resulted in heavy
losses to its agents all over the
country. Francis B. Alexander,
of Charlotte, N. c., is one of the
agents who arrived in Cincinnati
this afternoon.
Mr.. Alexander tried to obtain
an audience with Bultman, but
failed as did the others who we're
here on the same mission. Mr..
Alexander was formerly a repre-
sentative of Morehead & Co., and
went with Bultman when the
transfer was made. His loss is
about $15,O0O, although he declin-
ed to state the exact amount.
II am going out of the business
for good" he said, "and I wish
that stringent laws could be pass
ed and enforced prohibiting the
bucket shop business entirely. It
now seems to be q game. If
O'Dell had lived things would
have baen different. He knew
how to handle affairs conserya-
lively. He also knew when to
