BURIED ALIVE.
The Mode of Death Selected by q Chi.
nese Murderer,

Rough justice as 1t is administered
In most parts of China is sometimes
tempered by Individual tastes, us an
incident printed in one of the China
port journals attest. A man in Suchien,
condemned to die, preferred to be
buried alive. and his wishes were car.
rled out to the letter.
During the famine two brothers
who lived in Suchien fought desper-
ately to stave off starvation from their
families and bad blood arose between
them. At last the elder brother sold
his fathers coffin for food When he
refused to divide the proceeds with his
younger brother the latter chopped off
his head with cleaver.
Because it was too expensive to
carry the murderer several scores of
miles to the nearest yamen of justice
the local elders. including the father
Of the murderer, whose coffin had been
sold, sat in justice upon the culprit and
condemned him to death. He asked
ceivjng the horrible torture of the
thirty Slices" The father interceded
with the other elders to get them to
grant his sons request.
A grave was dug, and the victim,
with his arms and feet securely bound,
was trundled in a wheelbarrow to the
edge of the pit by his wife. There,
upon the murderer's own request. his
bonds were loosed, and he walked to
the grave, lowered himself into it and
was ready.
The victims wife put felt hat over
his mouth as his request, and then she
helped the elders to fill in the grave
with six feet of earth.

FRIENDLY ANIMALS.
The Intimacy Between Them and Man
In Yellowstone Park.

One of the most pleasant features Of
the drive through the Yellowstone Ma
tional park is the apparent intimacy be-
tween man and the animal and bird
life in the park. Thanks to the wise and
stringent regulations, no shooting Is
allowed within its boundaries. THE
result" says an English tourist, "is
positively charming. Hundreds of little
chipmunks, with their gaudy striped
backs, scamper impudently about or
peer at the passing coach from the
roadside. The squirrel did not bolt for
the nearest tree, but nodded a well
come. All bird life treated us like
wise. Even the lordly eagle lowered
near, and the wild turkey stalked I'M
concernedly through the rank grass
We perceived a doe and q fawn graz
ing by the road. Not until we were
within a few feet did they seek the
shelter of the woods, yet not to fly.
They simply moved aside. Here at
least mankind was regarded as II
friend-one who could be trusted. The
only animal who ran away was q
brown bear. He turned tail at the sigh
Of coaching party. Yet it was quite
a common thing for bears to approach
close to the hotels at evening to feed
on the refuse thrown out. 1t was an
after dinner relaxation for the guests
to watch them feeding. They munched
and disputed the choicest morsels, for
the most part Indifferent to the COM
pany. Only when we became inQuis-
tive and approached too near did they
retire, and these animals were perfect
ly free and unfettered in their move
ments. 1t may read like fairy tale,
but 1t is solid fact"

An Ancient Suez Canal.

1t is certain that in ancient times a
canal connecting the Mediterranean
and Red seas did exist. Herodotus as
cribes its projection to Pharaoh Necho.
600 B. G. The honor Of its completion
is given by some to Darius, by others
to the Ptolemies. How long this canal
continued to be used we do not know,
but, becoming finally choked up by
sand, it was restored by Trajan early
in the second century A. d. Becoming
again useless from the same cause, il
was reopened by the Caliph Omar, but
was finally closed by the "unconquer
able sands about A. d. 767, in which
state it has since remained. This an
cient canal, from Suez to Bubastis. on
the east branch Of the Nile, was OF
miles long, from 10S to 100 feet wide
and 10 feet deep.

A SmiIe From a Stranger.

Most of us owe debts of gratitude to
strangers whose kindly smile has sent
sunshine into our aching hearts and
has given us courage when we were
disheartened.
1t is a great thing to go through life
with smiling face. 1t costs little, but
who can ever estimate its value?
Think how the pleasure Of life would
be increased If we met smiling faces
everywhere-faces which radiate hope.
sunshine and cheer! What Joy it
would be to travel in gallery Of liv-
ing pictures radiating hope and cour-
age!
Who can estimate what beautiful,
smiling faces mean to the wretched
and the downcast, those whose life
burdens are crushing them?
Many Of us carry precious memories
Of smiling faces which we glimpsed
but once, but whose sweet, uplifting
expression will remain with us forever.

FIRST NIGHTS.
The Way They Affected Some Famous

The Way They Affected Some Famous
French PIaywrishts.
The first night with authors is view
ed with different feelings. This is how
1t affected some famous French play
wrights. Sardou's nervousness was
well known. Dumas fills was never
able to preserve his sangfroid. As
soon as the curtain rose Dumas pere
would betake himself to a restaurant
and dine from as many courses as his
new piece had acts. His son reported
on the success of the piece. At the
first representation of "Toussaint Lou
venture" Lamartine found his work so
tedious that he went to a cafe and
read the papers. Balzac when he pro

his neighbors demanded silence. Cas-

REAL LITERARY LABOR.
Example Of Charles Dudley Warmers
Infinite Painstakina.

Infinite Painstaking.
The extraordinary pains and patience
with which Charles Dudley Warner
did his literary work are shown In an
account given by writer in the New
Amstel magazine of the strenuous way
In which Mr.. Warner produced an
obituary notice some years ago.
Professor Edward L. Youmans was
close personal friend of Mr.. Warner,
and on that account when Mrs. You
mans died the editor Of a daily paper
asked Mr.. Warner to write sort Of
personal appreciation of her. This he
consented to do.
He was left alone from 10 a. m. until
half past IL, when he went to lunch.
Returning at 2 o'clock, he worked
without interruption until A o'clock
when he turned over to the editor
what he had written.
Yet the work was not complete. Mr..
Warner read the first proof and In sue
cession three revised sheets. ca! r
Each time he made change after
change In phraseology, seeking out the
one right word, while even in the
nicely Of paragraphing he seemed to
make clearer what he desired to ex-
press. Nor did the close revision end
with the marking of the last proof.
After the paper had gone to press
and the first sheets had been brought
up to the composing room for an o. X.
Mr.. Warner looked wistfully at the
editor and observed:
"Would you object to lifting the
form? see a sentence in the last
paragraph that might be somewhat
changed. She was too good, you know,
to have slovenly tribute paid to her."
Even the printers refused to get an
cry over the delay, and forthwith the
form was sent up and changes went on
for an hour. At last, though publica-
ton was delayed fully two hours, the
editor, but not Mr.. Warner had the
supreme satisfaction of knowing that
the work was as nearly perfect as hui
man art could make it, and the edition
was sent out.

The PILLpRY.

Suffdred Inv Il.


suffared !r It.
In the year 1897 the British parlia-
nent passed an Oct thatput an end to
punishment by pillory. Previous to
the conquest this particular instrument
of correction was in useS in England
and went by the name of the "stretch
neck" 1t consisted Of wooden frame
erected on stool in which were three
holes for the head and arms. For
days together offenders against the
common law were thus exposed to pub
lie view. From historic accounts 1t APP
pears that this particular form Of pun
ishment was melted out to those con-
,icted of frauds Of every description
pot only in England, but in nearly
every country in Europe. In the days
OF the star chamber, when religious
feeling ran high, the pillory was the
ordinary punishment melted out ID
those who offended against the church
In 1886 Titus Oates was sentenced TO
be pilloried for five days in every year
famous sufferer was Daniel Defoe. the
author of Robinson Crusoe," who
stood for three days in the pillory In
Cheapside. 1t happened on occasions
that the offender died while under
going his sentence. During the time of
exposure the condemned man was not
allowed to receive food of any sort or
description. The. last occasion on
which a pillory sentence was passed
was In 1S14.-London Globe.

She Was Deliberate.

1t Is said that Dinah Mulock Craik.
the famous author of "John Halifax.
Gentleman" made habit of leaving
at her bank the manuscript of each Of
her stories as soon as it was completed
1t would remain there perhaps six
months. and then she would call for 1t
and see how the story affected her
after that lapse Of time. If 1t pleased
her, the manuscript was sent to the
publisher. Otherwise 1t was rewritten
or thrown away.

Smoothed the Sea.

A gentleman aboard steamer run

approached one Of the sailors during
the passage and remarked to him:
1--WE have a very smooth sea this
morning. It is like a sheet OF glass.
You don't always have It like this?'
mo, sir" was the answer, "but, you
see, they knowed as how you were
coming today, so the authorities at
Southport telephoned to the corpora

ordered out the steam roller and rolled
the sea down for the occasion. That
is why it is 80 smooth."-London Tit
