Chinese Artist.

In the fourth century A. D. there
lived in China al artist, who was also
a poet. His name was Ku K'ai-chih.
In London there is a painting, a long
scroll, which for at least a thousand
years has been treasured as his work;
and though that cannot be proved. it
is in all probability a painting by his
hand. One day, we are told, he in
trusted to a friend a chest full of
paintings which he had collected. For
better security he fastened the lid Of
the chest and sealed the fastening
with a seal. The friend, however,
coveted the paintings, and hit on the
simple expedient Of removing the
bottom of the box and so abstracting
them. When the box was restored to
Ku K'ai-chih, he broke the seal and
found 1t empty. But he suspected
no theft and expressed no surprise.
Beautiful paintings, he said, communi-
cate with supernatural beings; they
have changed their form and flown
away, like men when they join the
ACCOMPLISHMENTS Binyon, in the
Atlantic.

The new tariff law must be time-tried
and fre-tested before the country. or even
those who voted for its passage. or the
smaller number who drew the bill, will
know just what its yalue is. But there
can be no dispute about the democratic
party having kept faith and redeemed
pledges.
Tens of thousands Of democratic ballots
were cast by voters who We're supporters
of william H. Taft in the preceding presi-
Dental election and who were bitterly dis
appointed with the record made by the
republican party which enacted a reason
able profit" bill for the benefit OF a lin
tied but influential class. Many of these
voters balloted at a venture feeling that
no political party could be more perfidious
than the republicans had proven them
selves, yet doubling whether the demo-
Gratis would prove practical. so sedulously
had the republicans p~ropagated the aSser-
ton that all OF the brains of the country
was in the republican organization. These
Independent voters will rejoice with the
lifelong democrats over the moral victory
of the party. They will, 1t is reasonable
to believe, be willing to vote for q demo-
cratic president In the next campaign,

TO visit his father in Bisbee, Ariz.
Until the holidays Irene had beena
student in the Victor high school and
all his life had been passed off as a
girl.
Mrs. Moynahan, when told that her
boy had been arrested and that bis
sex had been discovered, stated that
she had always passed him off as a
girl because of her disappointment in
having two sons.
Not even her husband was aware OF
the boys sex This was borne out by
the discovery OF a letter in the bows
effects by the sheriff at La Junta. The
letter was addressed 10 his father in
Bisbee and declared that the mother
was sending a son to him as a New
Years gift"
Mrs. Moynahan will join her son a.

tinue the journey to Bisbee. Irene is
now dressed in boys clothes, furnished
by the police. for the first time in his
life.

Until the ruins, which caught fire,

Of debris on the site OF the ruined de

thrust ugly heads from the mass.

son is the principal topic OF discus
ton among diplomaIisJs here. 1t was
