CHINESE JUSTICE.
Il Hung chano's Way With the Men
Who Tried to Poison Him.

Il Hung chans's Way With the Men
Who Tried to Poison Him.
When Ii Hung Chang was Chi
nese premier and was having a Bit
ter fight with some of the more
conservative members Of the tsung-
i-yamen he received as a present a
magnificent cake which he had rea-
son to suspect contained poison. He
put the cake aside and set all his
powerful machinery to work to
find out who was at the bottom of
the plot. The investigation was
partly successful, the crime being
traced to three men, of whom one
at least was absolutely guilty.
Ii had the trio arrested and
brought to his yamen. When they
arrived they were ushered into his
presence and were received in his
courtliest manner. The cake was
produced with the remark that po-
liteness forbade his tasting it until
the three generous donors had had
an opportunity to enjoy its excel
lence. .
Ii cut the cake, and one of his
servitors handed it to the unwilling
guests. Each took a piece and ate
or pretended to eat it. One crum-
bled the pieces and let them fall
upon the floor, but the other two
ate calmly, without manifesting any
emotion. Ten minutes and the two
men began to show symptoms of
suffering. Ii smiled benignantly
and said to the man who had not
eaten, "Your wisdom is SO great
that I am compelled to preserve
your head as a souvenir to tran
scendent genius"
The man was removed and
promptly decapitated. To the 9th
er two the premier remarked: 'The
cake that you are eating is not the
one you sent, but one which I had
my cook initiate. The poison from
which you are suffering exists only
in your imagination. l know of no
way to cure your present pain ex-
cept by letting you share the same
fate as your friend who has just left
the room."
As they were led away to their
doom the statesman said to his reti-
nue., f1t is a pity that man who
can eat a deadly corrosive poison
with an unmoved countenance
should so misapply the talent where
with heaven has endowed him"

TRAGIC COINCIDENCE.
And the Climax Of Woman's Return
Trip to Her Homo.

And the Climax Of a Woman's Return
Trip to Her Homo.
A New York woman had a Curl
GUS and tragic experience, one that
seems more like a grewsome page
from French fiction than the plain
recital of fact.
This woman started out with her
husband to accompany him part way
on a business trip he was taking to
a southern city. 1t was arranged
that she should stop to visit some
friends at a point about halfway
on the journey and after two days
stay should proceed and rejoin her
husband at his destination and re-
turn with him. She made her visit
and when she reached the town
where she had expected to meet her
husband found that he was not at
the hotel where he had been stop
ping, but had left hurriedly for
New York the day before. She
waited long enough to send tele-
grams to her husbands Office and to
their house in New York asking if
he had arrived and to receive a neg
ative answer from each place.
Concluding that he had been un-
able to reach her by telegraph while
she was on the road, she decided
to return home. She was disap-
pointed, but not at all perturbed, as
she journeyed northward. She had
to change cars twice on the way.
Each change involved a wait Of ten
or fifteen minutes at a small juno
tion town. As she was pacing up
and down the station platform at
each of these places she saw big,
pine covered coffin box unloaded
from the express car and put aboard
the northbound train. At Jersey
City the same box was being un-
loaded, and it crossed the ferry
with her in a hearse. She noted
idly that one of the hearse horses
was white and the other black. ohe
went first to her husbands Office,
but the hour was late in the after
noon, and it was closed. Then she
went uptown to her home.
As she was about to enter the
apartment house a hearse drawn by
a white horse and black one drove
up, and the undertaken climbed
down and pressed the button below
her name on the row of call bells at
the entrance. She asked him what
it meant. Thinking she was some
inquiring stranger, the undertaken
told her he was bringing home the
body of man who had died on a
train near the city whence she had
had just come and that the under
taker who had taken charge of the
body had forwarded it in compli-
ance with the dying mans request.
In dazc the woman asked the
dead mans name. Then she fell
fainting to the floor. 1t was her
husband.-New York Press.

Natural Needle. and Thread.

What is commonly known as the
needle and thread tree, which
grows upon the plains of Mexico,
has large, thick, feshy leaves, some
what similar to those of the cactus,
especially of the one known as the
t'prickly pear" The needles of the
needle and thread tree are set along
the edges of the thick, fleshy leaves.
In order to obtain one fully equip
ped for sewing it is only necessary
to push the "needle" backward in
order to loosen it and draw it gently
from the socket. If this is properly
done 100 or more fine fbers adhere
to the thorn like so many SPIDERS
webs. The action of the air on the
fibers toughens them, a thread from
it being capable Of sustaining a
weight of five pounds.

Sound In the Air.

A writer in the Strand Magazine
describes the astonishment he ex-
perienced when, riding over London
in balloon at a height of more
than half a mile, he heard the deaf
ening roar of the great city beneath
him as it could not be heard when
on the ground. The noise, even at
that height, was SO harsh and in
tense as to be painful to the ear.
How perfect sound conductor the
air is was shown when the balloon
drifted far over the city to a wood
ed part of the country, where the
murmur of the leaves moved by the
wind, half mile below, was dis
tinctlY heard.
