Suppose you stand there beside me
and look over the city. Below us eX-
tending out to the wall on all sides
is a grass mass Of low one-story brick
bu ldingS which cover at least one
thousand acres. Through it run wid
streets cutting each other at right
angles. and over the Whole rise the
red walls and yellow roofs of the i'm
perial palaces.
The common buildings are of the
same architecture. They are of gray
brick with ridge roofs of black tiles,
the round comb of Zach roof slop-
The wider streets are lined with stores
and these havl double roofs, SO regu-
larIy fitted from house to house that
they form a sharp valley, banked with
tiles, running through the air along
the roadway from n end Of the
city to the other.
Flowing up and down the street is
a wide stream of white, blue and
black, made by the clothes of the peO-
pie as they go back and forth. There
are carts and horses by scores, and the
scenes are as busy as in the busiest
cities in china Mukde is one of
the richest places of the whole en-
pire. 1t has a vast trade, and it's
to dark.

they walk along the streets with a
swing. Their feet are not bound like
those of the Chinese M nor do
they fear to COX a nan in the face.
Indeed, they seem to dress for the

wear pantaloons, but over them long
coats coming down to the mikes. The
coats are often Of silk lined with fur.
Every girl paints her cheeks and eye
lids with rouge, and her head is more
gOrgeously dressed than those of any

Probably a Mad Dog.

Noticing that something was
wrong with little dog belonging
to John Neuroth, near Jugtown
last Wednesday, and Mr.. Neuroth,
suspectlng that the dog might
have rabies, penned the dog, as
he thought securely; but next
morning he discovered that the
dog had escaped and was not to
be found about the premises.
Fearing that the dog might IN.
tllct injury on some of his neigh
bors, or some of his neighbors
stock, he employed John Car
baugh to go cunning for the dog.
Shortly after dinner, Mr.. Car
baugh was informed that the dog
was seen crossing a road neal
Knauff's. When Mr.. Cartaugl
found the dog, it was crossing ;
clover field, and as the dog caugh
sight of Mr.. Carbaugh, 1t started
directly for the latter, apparently
greatly excited and frothing a
the mouth. John waited unit
the dog came within thirty. fy'
yards, when he banged away anc
missed the dog. This, how
ever, was followed by seconc
shot that killed the dog. From
the appearance of the dog, 1t was
not killed any too soon for the
safety of the neighborhood.
