Hexumck 4 Eaeis.
Odd Ttilnji in China.
fN. Y. World
The hii-hi'st ambition of a Chinese
gentleman is to have a nice coffin and a
tine funeral.
They feed their friends sumptuously
lieu dead, but let them tak caro of
themselves the liest they could when
ive.
Old women instead of young are tho
ideal belles of society.
1 he highest recommendation a man
can have istlietact oi bin naving a
wife.
A bachelor is likened to a counterfeit
com; lie is looked upon with suspicion
even by members of his own household.
Love-making is only done three days
beforo marriago. It is not only con
sidered tho safest way to get ahead of a
rival, but tho surest way to get a wife
without losing much timo.
A previous acquaintanceship between
tho uialo and fema'.o prevents them
from marriage. For this reason a man
seldom weds a girl of his own town.
They are likewise prevented from mar
rying kins or namesakes. Joneses are
not allowed to marry Jones, nor Smiths
to marry Smiths.
A girl is never considered anything
olso in her own father's houso than an
honored guest. She is neither respon
sible for the family's debts nor enjoys a
shuro in its fortunes, as is tho case of
sous.
Daughters depend upon their hus
bands for fame and fortune, while, sons
pend upon the parents and upon
themselves.
A man could borrow money on tho
strength of his having a son, hut no
ono would advance him a cent if he had
dozsn of daughters. The formor is
responsible for the debts of his father
for three generations. Tim latter is
only responsible for the debts of her
own husband.
When a Chinaman meets another ho
shakes and squeezes his own hands;
covers his head. If great friends had
not seen each othor for a long time,
after the mutual hand -shaking they
would rub shoulders until they become
tired. Instead Of asking each other's
ealth they would say: "Have you
catun your rice, whore are you going,
what is your business when you got
there, how old are you, and how much
did you pay for your shoes 1
Men wear long petticoats and carry
fans, while, tho womon wear short jack
ets and carry canes.
Boats are drawn by horses, carriages
moved by sails.
Old men play balls and II y kites,
while childron fold their arms and
ook on.
Schoolmasters have more power over
children than parents. If within three
years schooling the child is not morally
as well as intellectually reformed he is
sent into another school,
Parents and spectators instead of the
children are held responsible for crimes
committed by the latter.
"It is better to be ignorant and know
how to live than to bo learned and not
know how to live. Tho principal
obiect of a school is to learn how to
ive in tranquility and happiness and
nothinir mora" So Hay all Chmeso
scholars.
It is much loss a crime, to steal your
neighbors ox than to steal his dog.
The former is simply personal property,
while the latter takes the place of
man watenman.
If a Chinaman desires tho death of
1, . i.
an enemy he goes and nangs nimseii
upon his neighbor's door. It is a sure
euro to kill nob only that particular
enemy, but members of his entire
family will be in jeopardy of losing
their lives,
When a Chinaman desires a visitor
to dino with him ho does not auk him
to do so, but when he does not wish
him to stay he puts tho question, "Oh
d ease stay and dine with me. lho
visitor will then know he is not wanted
' A rich man's servants gets no salary
vet many are the applicants ; while big
salaries are paid to the servants of
the common people, but few mak
applications. The perquisities of th
former is often rnorothan triplethesala
ries of the latter, arc the solo reasons
of these differences,
When a Chinaman expects a present
and it does not come, he sends one of
lesser value.
To encourage honesty and sincerity,
confidential clerks and salesmen in all
branches of industries receive an annual
net per centage of the firm's business
besides their regular salaries,
. Mr. Spies of Chicago, who for bis hsudi
nets with dynamite, is confined fast and snug
in jail, has a brother on the outside, who
acted as a proxy for Mr Spies as a bride
groom. The Clerk of Crook County ha re
turned the alleged marriage certificate to
lbs jattrio who claimed to have performed
the ceremony. The Clerk reminded the jus
tice that as Spies was in. the county jail at
the time of tho alleged marriage ho could not
have been at the village of Jefferson, where
the justice certifies that the marriage oc
curred.

1 Sharp Lesson.
In trials for murder nobody is aston
ished now a. day at seeim; the iurv
ring in a verdict of not guilty, derived
from a process of reasoning not to be
found in any of tho known systems of
logic. In fact, with ever ready and
inventive intelligence the jurors build
p a new system every time to fit tho
case on hand, and with unerring cer
tainty arrive at tho desired point of
cquittal.
l ears ago in tho gold mining times
of Cariboo, jurors seem to havo been
mere apprentices, though they did
pretty well considering circumstances.
hero was a miner killed in Heaver
Lake by a man named Gilchrist, who
had dispatched two men in California
Iready. He wai sitting at the table
when the miner canio in, threw down
an ounco of gold dust, bet, and won.
lie winner bet again with tho same
result as before, and then asked Oil
chist rather flippantly, if there was any
other gamo ho could play better. lho
gambler took offence at this, raised his
pistol and shot the miner dead.
lho murderer was tried and the jury
brought in a verdict of "manslaughter."
Turning to tho prisoner Chief Justice
Begbie said : "It is not a pleasant duty ,
for me to haye to sentence you only to
prison for life. Your criino was
unmitigated murder. You desert o to
be hangod. Had the jury performed
their duty, I might now have tho pain
ful satisfaction of condemning you to
death." And then, addressing the
jury, ho continued : "You, gentlemen,
permit me to say that it would givo me
great pleasure to see you hanged, every
one of you, for bringing in a murderer
guilty only of manslaughter."
Danrlng or Kissing.
It may be asserted in a general way,
that wherever in the U. S. you do not
Gnd dancing you find kissing. In com
munities where dancing was disap
proved I have seen "string games call
ed for and carried into practico at en
tertainments held in school houses and
oven at church sociables. In such
places church members and, for
aught I know, deacons take part in
the amusement; and 1 have seen it de
velop a friskincss, so to speak, in griz
zled men, which mado thorn ono would
say, anything but seductive or beguil
ing to the young and fair. Among
those of earlier years kissing becomes
in such communities a systematic pur
suit, like hunting or fishing. Young
girls whoso parents object to it or neg
lected or disliked; a young man in such
village told a friend of mine, with
some indignation that she was the only
girl in town whom ho had not kissod.
It is of no use to object to it as im
moral where tho church members aro
committed to it, Perhaps it cannot bo
called immoral; but when society lias
reached a certain stage of refinement
these gamos vanish. Tho sy.ubol of
that increased refinement is usually
dancing, Danoing, whatever its draw
backs, serves practically as an antidote
to kissing game; where one begins tho
other dies out Thoy do not seem to
flourish and side by side; at any rate,
peoplo rarely go back from dancing to
kissing. Granting, for the sake of ar
gument, that it is necessary to havo
some amusement, the choice lies, in our
yillagcs and their scattered families, bo.
tween these two forms of relaxation.
Which is tho butter of the two!
ramcll'i Faith.
The question of Parnoll's religion
has often been discussed, but never
elucidated. Religion enters so acutely
into politics and society over hero that
a conspicious man must declare himself.
Tho compulsion which Gladstone invites
and Churchill does not repel Parnoll
has ignored. Ireland is overwhelm
ingly Catholii Yet she trusts this
man implicitly not to permit any legis
lation which will be offensive to her
traditions. A great critio described
the religious Btate of Germany after
tho thirty years' war as petrified
Protestantism. Parnoll is a petrified
Protestant. lie has never spoken a
word which would iudicato tho presenco
of a dogma in his conscience. He has
never written a line to disavow tho
hereditary creed of his family. But
he has had to encounter so much
malignant stupidity on the part of
recriminating exponents of faith claim
ing to be divine that one may credit a
Btory told of him. A ldver of Greek
lore quoted in his presence ono day the
ancient crope that Socrates had brought
philosophy down from heaven, rarneii
smiled his palo smile and replied :
"What a pity he did not take theology
up there."
