RECALLS POPULAR TRAVESTY
Charge Against Former Minister of
Finance Revives Memories of "The
Miseries of a Chinese Official"

These who recall Francisque Sarcey's
popular travesty upon Chinese corrup-
ton, "The Miseries of a Chinese Off
cial," will enjoy reading the proceed
ings in the trial for bribery of Chen
Chin-tao, former minister of finance,
and two of his subordinates. The
investigators appointed by President
Ii Yuan-hung do not appear to be able
to discover whether the late minister
of finance was bribed, whether he
kept money that certain merchants
allege they paid to certain persons for
him or whether it went 'higher up"
The complainant merchants insist that
money passed, but Chen Chin-tao de-
MES having received any.
In Sarcey's satire ''graft" was de-
clared to be so universal that FO Hi,
the would-be-conscientiou official,
found himself in very hot water when
he undertook to check it. The climax
is reached when a contract for battle
ships is given to a porcelain factory
The Chinese navy has an engagement
with an enemy (assumably the Japa-
nese, at the time the book was pub
lished), and the first shot from the
attacking cruiser shivers the Chinese
craft to bits. The collapse of the
formidable-appearing warship resem-
bled nothing so much as a waiter
dropping a tray full of dishes.

ENGLISH HARD FOR SINGERS
Chief Difficulty Is That Language, IN
like German and Italian, is Not
One Of 5road-Vowel Sounds.

When an audience can't tell whether
a song is being sung in English or
Choctaw, 1t is time something was
done about it, and something is going
to be done, it appears, by a group OF
well-known singing teachers and per-
formers known as the Society of Eng
fish Singers to Standardize the Teach
ing of Singing in English.
Francis Toye, who tackles the prob
lem in the London Nation, points out
the source of the real difficulty. and
tells why songs sung in English are
often unintelligible:
"That there are difficulties in sing
ing certain English syllables on certain
notes may be admitted" says Mr..
Toye. English, unlike German and
Italian. is not predominantly a Ian
guage of broad-vowel sounds. 1t is
comparatively awkward, for instance.
to sing fix or her or sun with a
loud, sustained tone on a high note.
But if composers knew their business
they would not, SAVE in very excep-
tiOnal circumstances, ask the singer to
do anything of the kind.
"Half the imaginary difficulties of
singing English arise from the incom-
petenee of many composers in setting
1t to music. They seem neither TO
think In terms Of singing nor to study
the natural rhythm of the language"

WARMTH is FOUND IN SNOW
Der Supplies of the Northern Areas
Would Disappear.

Few of our readers would credit that
the absence of snow would double the
price of timber. The greater part of
our common timber comes from the
forests of Canada, Scandinavia and
Russia. All these countries suffer from
a very severe winter, says London Tit
Bits.
For nearly five months Of the year
their surface is buried deep under a
mantle of snow, and the thermometer
in the heart of the greatest pine forests
not uncommonly falls to 80 degrees be-
low zero, i. e., 81 degrees of frost.
Snow is one of the best no%nconductors
of heat or cold in the world, and when
the fall is a foot deep a thermometer
showing 6 degrees on it's surface will
If buried beneath the snow, rise to
about 80 degrees. The snow, there
fore, is an blanket, protect
ing the roots of the trees from the in
tense cold.
A full-fiedged pine can stand almost
any degree of cold, but a young tree
cannot do so. 1t might sprout during
summer, but a snowless winter would
infallibly kill it. If, therefore, snow
ceased, the enormous timber supplies
of northern Europe, Asia and America
would disappear.

Some Leaves Live Lona.

Evergreen trees do not retain their
leaves forever, but are so called be-
cause the new leaves appear before the
old one are shed. Miss Winnie A.
Pease has been studying the many
evergreens of the Pacific Northwest
TO ascertain how long the several spe-
cies retain their leaves. She finds
a wide variety, the shortest being the
California buckthorn, which sheds
some OF its leaves in autumn and re-
tains the others only until those Of
the coming seaso are mature. The
longest IL the short-leaved yew, which
retains It's leaves for from five to
twelve years. some of them persisting
for as long as % years. Saplings
lose their leaves more quickly han
mature trees and trees In the open
more quickly than those In shady
Qlseas.

The fuel famine in France has di-
rected attention to extensive peat boys,
heretofore despised, which may aid as
much to solve the problem as the lig-
mite deposits of the center of France,
provided the question of labor is
solved.
The "Grande-B ruyere," near st. Ma
zaire, and the region of Culoz, accord
ing to expert estimates. hold SO,OOO,OOO
tons of dried peat, affording an aver
age of 1000 calories a pound, or about
half the heating power of coal. Con-
sidering the greater facility of produc-
ton. it is figured that n workman
can extract a number of calories in
peat far superior to the average pro-
duction per minute from coal.

CENSUS
WILL BE DIFFERENT

Those Southern States whose quota
has been reduced by the figuring of
a benevolent census bureau which IS
under the direction of a Southern
Democrat are making 40 complaint,
But If the same result should be OBJ
tanned by the census bureau when the
enumeration of 1920 is taken, there
will be a loud outcry from down in
Dixie. The enumeration of 1920 will
fix the representation of the states n
the electoral college and in Congress,
which is a very different thing from
establishing how many men a COM
munity shall send TO the trenches.

WHEAT TRADING ON
CHICAGO BOARD
OF TRADE OFF
Directors Decide TO Discourage
Gambling on May Crop
1870, 600 BUSHELS ON MARKET
Said That Fear of Federal Action
Caused Halt in Wild
Speculation.

Chicago, May 11.--Trading in May
wheat was ordered discontinued by di
rectOrs of the Chicago Board of Trade
tonight. The directors also decided
that existing contracts should be ad
judicated either by delivery of the
property, or at a selling price TO be
fixed by committee appointed for the
purpose. This committee is headed
by James A. Patten and will meet to-
morrow morning.
May wheat was quoted at S3.1S at
the close of trading today. Traders
said there was no way of estimating
the effect OF the order on trades exist
ing The amount of wheat on this
market was said to he 10000 bushels
Saturday aud that probably the
amount now here was short of those
figures.
IT was current among members of
the board that action by the federal
authorities in the last few days,-and
particularly earlier in the day, had
FASTENED the action OF the board oi
directors None Of these at the meet
ing would confirm or deny that it had
been intimated TO board officials that
some action to curb soaring prices of
wheat should be taken or government
officials would close the board II
was admitted that several members
had been summoned to the Office of
the federal district attorney in the
morning, and others again in the af-
ternoon, but it was said no threats
had been made or intimated. 1t also
was admitted that government agents
had been in the trading pit of the
board for several days taking notes
on the trades.
THE board of directors were
prompted in reaching their conclus-
ions by what they deemed to be their
patriotic duty" said Joseph p. Grit
fin. president of the Board of Trade
True, this action is without prece-
dent in the history OF this exchange,
although other exchanges in this
country have taken similar action. 1t
should be understood that the Board
of Trade is neither a buyer nor sell
er--it is merely market place where
meet daily the millions of pro-
ducers and consumers throughout the
country.
Il should like TO emphasize that
speculation has nothing whatever to
do with the action of the directors in
deciding to abandon trading in May
wheat, nor is speculation in any sense
responsible for the high prices pre-
vailing for May wheat or the cash ar
ticle"
