CELESTIAL SMILED AT LAST
But Il Was Not Because Hls Hair Had
Boon Pulled and He Nose
TWeaked.

Because he refused to smile and
look pleasant when commanded to,
Charley Chang. an Alhambra Chinese,
had his hair pulled, his nose tweaked
and both eyes discolored by A. b.
Mills. who the police say had Inn
bibed freely, says an Alhambra dis
patch to the, Los Angeles Times.
Mills and the Chinese were both pas
sengers on late car out Of Los An
geles. Mills was In a happy frame of
mind and favored each Of the passen-
gers with q benign grin.
Chang was probably thinking Of a
bad business week, for his coun-
tenance was long, solemn and mourn
full, and when Mills grinned at him
the celestial only looked the more for
lorn. Mills refused to allow anyone
around him to be anything but cheer
full. SO he pulled Chang's hair and
asked for smile.
Chang didn't see anything laughable
about the hair pulling, SO he contin-
ued to look sad. Then Mills grabbed
the fiat oriental nose between his
fingers and tweaked 1t until Chang bel
lowed for mercy. but did not smile
As the car reached Barfield and
Main streets Mills decided on one last
superhuman effort to get smile from
Chang, SO he smashed him two hard
blows in the face. Just then Marshal
Parker boarded the car and took Mills
and his victim into custody.
Judge Northrup placed Mills under q
heavy bond to appear before him for
trial in the morning and Charley
Chang smiled.

To Improve Cattle In Rennal

The decadence of cattle in the prov
tnce Of Bengal forms the subject OF
an interesting monograph recently
published by the director of agricuI-
ture for the province. The cause Of
their decadence he attributes partly
to climatic conditions, partly to the
lack of grazing grounds. and largely
to the needless breeding policy Of the
Bengal cattle owner. His chief rec
concentrations are the provision of
good bulls and the establishment Of
superior milk-yielding cows, draft
bullocks and bulls. The report is IL
Illustrated by most interesting collec-
ton of photographs descriptive of the
various species of cattle ranging from
the Himalayas to the Bay Of Bengal
from the record bull bison, measuring
Is hands ~ inches at the shoulder
and 10 hands inches at the hump,
down to the humble lineaments of the
Nadia calf which at sixteen months
measured only SO inches in height be-
hind the hump.

he cooled down. But he was pretty

IN PRIMITIVE RUSSIA
REGION WHICH CIVILIZATION HAS
NOT REACHED.
Inhabited by Nomadlc Race, Who Live
as Their Forefathers Lived Through
out the Centuries = Have
Many Peculiar Customs.

Interest is still kept up in Great
Britain in other things besides the
war. The other day, for instance. a
Mr.. F. A. Holiday, traveller, gave
an address before the Society of Arts
In London on the Uralak,- province
In Asian mid-Russia, northeast of the
Caspian sea.
Valuable oil fields exist here, and
also deposits of sulphur and other
minerals useful In peace and war.
Mr.. Holiday said that the land was
very fat, and there was almost an
absence of trees, which caused the
fuel problem to be somewhat acute.
The advent of western civilization fur
nished the inhabitants with certain
amount of firewood in the shape of tel
egraph poles and stakes used to mark
out claims.
The Cossacks, had. however, taught
them to respect the former, though
not in some cases the latter. The
original inhabitants were the Kirghiz.
an essentially nomadic race, who
lived in dome-shaped tents made of
light wooden frame covered with
camel skins.
The tents had no furniture, but
sometimes beautiful oriental rugs or
carpets were placed on the floor, a
space being left on which fire was
made.
When the Kirghiz used the tele-
graph poles as firewood, they did not
take the whole pole away, but each
man Clipped off piece until at last
the whole pole gave way.
A prince was a man with 100 or
zoo sheep, and a prince in winter
generally lived in a house built of
bricks made out of the sand and
baked in the sun.
The houses were sunk in the
ground for warmth In the winter.
They had window frames and doors,
but the frewood question was SO acute
that when the people went on trek
In the summer they took the window
frames and doors out and packed them
on the backs of caInels for fear the
people who did not trek would steal
them.
The Ural river was great source
Of wealth to the Cossacks, for 1t was
well stocked with fish At one time
O barge crossed the river, but the
Gossacks would not allow it to cross
after dark. as they said that the fish
wanted to sleep as well as anybody
else.
The outbreak of war put a great
check on the developments of the
Uraisk and of other oil fields. A
great deal of prospecting and pre-
liminary work was necessarily stopped,
and companies which were already
well established met with fresh diff
culties.
In some places ''gas holes" around
which there was often a deposit of
sulphur, were met with. Some OF
! these spots were venerated by the
Kirghiz, who prayed round them and
then erected little sticks, to which
they tied little pieces of cloth, as was
the manner of simple peoples.
On one occasion his driver stopped
and prayed by one of these gas
holes" and threw a few kopeks on
the ground. which, he said, were far
the religious authorities when they
came along. Asked if there was not
danger Of someone stealing them. the
driver replied that if he prayed for
relief from sickness and trouble. and
then someone stole the money, the
thief would get the trouble and sick
ness, SO there was no danger.

REQUITAL
BY H. NJ. EesERT.

The little purse lay at Halliday's
feet, and the girl in shabby dress who
had dropped it was walking away In
total ignorance Of her loss.
The mans impulse was to run after
her and restore it. But she was al
ready half block distant, and, in his
condition of starvation, he could not
catch up with her. And while he
meditated and fought with temptation
she was out of sight.
A course of dissipation, betting,
drinking, had lost the young man his
position. For days he had been with.
out food and homeless. Yet he was
not by nature bad. Temptation and
the loneliness of a great city were
chiefly responsible.
He opened the purse, to find a ten
dollar bill, a little mirror, and a few
cards, giving the name and address
of Miss Isobel Blair. Shamefacedly he
took the money, thrust it into his
pocket, and flung the purse away. On
second thought he picked it up again
1t was dangerous to do that. Some
how he connected the finding of the
purse with himself. He laughed at
his folly afterward, but he kept the
purse.
A good meal restored him wonder.

what more natural than that he should
go to the race track2 He could do
nothing more with his money than in
vest it on the tip he had received
Four dollars would not help him in
