CHINA IS PROGRESSING.

"The Chinese is not a man of past civilization," states the Rev. Y. Shimizu, Japanese Christian evan- gelist who has spent several years in China. Possibly he may belong to a people of the past, but he is decidedly not man of the past. China's doors are thrown open to the whole world. The Chinese are chiefly concerned in living in peace at low wages and small cost. The vast majority, including the intel lectual class, are quite indifferent to the worries of the state. The Chi nese are reliable and generous as men, being selfish only toward the state and the president. ."-Japan Society Bulletin.

China's Canal System.

From the Himalayan mountains east ward to the present Pacific coast, a distance of more than 1,500 miles, the country was formed by successive elevations of vast mountain chains. The valleys intervening between these ranges contained rich alluvial soil, well suited for the raising of immense crops for the sustenation of man and beast. Added to this Is the great plain stretching from the Yangtse river northward to the great China wall. This is a vast prairie formed by the loss that came drifting down from the deserts of the north. This plain is in- tersected by numerous canals, most important of which Is the Grand canal. This network of canals has for untold ages furnished people with the mode of transportation, and also water SUD- ply for the irrigation of the land.

German Youngster Had Something to Learn Concerning the Effect
 of Cascara.

Under British administration in occupied Germany a great deal of responsibility falls on the burgo- master. When his authority breaks down or when there are breaches of the regulations, a military court tries the cases and imposes fines of various amounts. There are a good many cases of theft and of food smuggling,
 One amusing case of theft in which the punishment fitted the crime came under my notice, says Bishop Frodsham in the Cornhill Magazine. A sapper complained to his commanding officer that parcel of his that had lately arrived from England had been opened, and that some cakes and a bottle of sugar. coated cascara pills had been re- moved.
 The owner of the billet, stout baker, was promptly interrogated. He denied with tears all knowledge of the theft. His wife, also in tears, affirmed her innocence. The five children howled out their innocence of all matter connected with the parcel. Then someone remembered that a tow-headed small boy, neighbours son, had been in the house. When they asked him if he knew anything about the matter he acknowledged that he had eaten the cakes, big and little. Did he know anything about the medicine? No, he had seen no medicine, but little bottle of confections he had seen and also eaten. Had he eaten all? Yes, he had consumed all-and he was not feeling we'll!

Names of Both SOWerby And Heath Will Appear
 On Democratic Ticket

A list of candidates successful at the polls in the Territorial pri- maries last April which has been turned in by Clerk J. W. Bell for printing on the official ballot for the general election next Novem- Der contains the names of Isaac Sowerby of Juneau, and E. A. Heath of Ketchikan, as nominees on the Democratic ticket for Sen ator from the First Division. In the primary both men received 149 votes.
 AS neither man withdrew, be- fore making up the official ballot Clerk Bell called on Territorial Attorney General J. c. Murphy for a decision in the matter. In consideration of the vote, and ab- sence of any provision in the Alaska election laws covering such situation, MT. Murphy held that both men were equally entitled to a place on the official ballot. In conformity with the Attorney Generals opinion, MT. Bell placed both names on the ticket.

Lake Periodically Disappears.

In Georgia, near Yladosta, there Is a lake which disappears every three or four years and then comes back again, no matter what the weather is like. The lake Is three miles long and three-quarters of a mile wide, with an average depth of 12 feet of water. There are natural subterranean pas sages beneath it, through which the water passes off. It takes two or three weeks to disappear, when a mammoth basin Is left in It's place, which furnishes beautiful sandy beach. After a month or so the water begins to return, and then in couple of weeks it is the same magnificent stretch of water as it was before.

Aue.Oid Arid Lands.

The nationwide "dryness" at hand brings to mind localities where almost perpetual drouth Is the rule. Among these is included part of the United States which has been "bone dry" since time immemorial. Death valley, 278 feet below sea level, is an alkaline desert region in California, on the Arizona border. It is 70 miles long, 10 to 20 miles wide and is situated be- tween high foothills. Only 75 miles away Mount Whitney raises its 14.500 feet into the air and with other nearby elevations is barrier to any moisture reaching this parched region.

Great English Painter.

The habits, mannerisms and meth- ods of the great are always interest ing. Sir Joshua Reynolds used a spade-shaped palette, with handle and without hole. His brushes had handles 19 inches long and he always stood while painting. His studio was an octagonal room 20 by 16 feet. il- luminated by a single square window of modern size, the sill about 9k feet from the floor. He was steady and consistent worker and frequently complained of idle visitors who did not seem to realize the value of his time. He ranks as the greatest Eng. fish painter of that time. He died in February of 1792 of an affection of the liver and was buried In St. Paurs cathedral.

Lawn Tennis Old Game.

It may be said that lawn tennis is at least three centuries old, having been played in 1591, when Queen Elizabeth was entertained at Elvet- ham. in Hampshire, by the earl of Hartford. Strut, quoting from Nich- ol's Progress of Queen Elizabeth" tells us that "after dinner, about 8 o'clock, ten of his lordships servants, all Somersetshire men, in square green court, before her majesty's win dow, did hang up lines, squaring out the form of tennis court and make a cross line in the middle. In this square they, being stripped of their doublets, played, five to five, with handball, to the great liking of her highness."

Decatur's Brilliant Work.

In 1894, on August 3, during our war with Tripoli, the United States squad- ron, under Commodore Preble, ap- peared before Tripoli. The frigate Philadelphia was sent into the harbor to reconnoitre. It struck upon rock and was obliged to surrender. The Tripolitans took the crew prisoners of war, and the men were treated like slaves. Early in February of the fol- lowing year Lieutenant Decatur en- tered the harbor with a small schooner, routed the Tripolitan crew on board the Philadelphia and set the ship on fire. This feat was accomplished un- der heavy fire from the surrounding vessels and the land batteries. Decatur escaped without the loss of man.

Always Peace In Library.

Walter Savage Landor. pugnacious with friends and enemies alike. was at peace in his library: "We enter our studies and enjoy society which we alone can bring together. We raise no jealousies by conversing with one in preference to another; we, give no offense to the most illustrious by ques- tloning him as long as we will and leaving him as abruptly. Diversity of opinion raises no tumult in our pres ence; each interlocutor stands before us, speaks or is silent, and we ad- journ or decide the business at our leisure"

Famous American Educator.

It was Elias Loomis, born in Connec- ticut in 1911, educated at Yale, pio- neer teacher, who introduced astron- omy to Western Reserve college in 1886, and remained on the faculty for eight years, teaching mathematics and physics and adding largely to the sum of human knowledge. It has been said that he made the name of that little town in the western wilderness famil- far to the advanced scientists of that period throughout the world. For many years Professor Loomis occupied the chair of natural philosophy at Yale, and died in 1889.
