The genius of Holbein blossorocvl

when he was 18 years oid, li

was born, to Basel, the center of
learning, whose boast was flia:
every house in it contained r.t least
one learned man. In 1520 ho wa:
admitted to citizenship at Br.so
and to membership in the paint
ers' guild, good proor, as he was
only 23, of his unusual ability.
But the times were lean ones for
the painter. Holbein found hiin
self in need of money, and accord
ingly set out for Lou-Jon with a
letter of introduction to Sir Thorn.
as More, the king's chancellor.
"Master Haunce," as the Eng
lish called him, arrived in England
toward the close of 1526. During
this first visit to England he pain f
ed portraits of many of the lead
ing men of the day. But two years
later, in consequence of an out
break of the plague, he returned to
Easel, only to be driven back to
England in 1531 by poverty and
the death of his old friends. .
In 1537 Holbein came to the no:
ties of Henry VIII., and was estab
lished as court painter, a position
which he held until his death. This?

MAY PUT BAN ON QUEUE.
Chinese Government Said to Be Con
sidering the Abolishment of Old
Style Appendage.
Some time ago it was announced
that the members of a Chinese
revolutionary reform movement
had decided to abandon the cus-1
torn of wearing the queue, and
that hundreds of the Chinese in
New York and California colonies
were cutting that hirsute append
age. The Chronicle expressed its
incredulity of the revolutionary
source of the reform at the time
the announcement was made on
the ground that the cutting of the
queue would be a distinguishing
mark of the disloyalty to, the im
perial dynasy of the Chinese who
submitted to it, and be an absolute
bar to his return to his own coun
try.
According to the local Chinese
papers, the inspiration favoring
queue cutting comes from an im
perial and not from a revolution
ary source. These papers repre
sent that a mandate directing the
cutting of the queue is being seri
ously considered by the Chinese
government, and its issuance at
an early date is anticipated. It is
expected that within the next six
months the custom of wearing
queues will disappear entirely in
the local colony.
If the Chinese government is
contemplating the issuance of
such a reformatory order it has
doubtless been influenced in its
course largely by the example set
by Japan, which, before its adop
uuji oi western civilization, was a
queue-wearing nation. Whether
the wearing of the queue by the
Chinese grew out of a condition of
servility or possesses a special re
ligious significance, its abolition
will mark the abandonment of one
of China's oldest and most ner
sistently cherished traditions.
But it will be accepted generally
as the initial step of the Chinese
government toward the modern
ization of the nation. If the gov
ernment favors the change there
can be no doubt that the people
will promptly comply with its
edict.

for in 1797 we read of a Cumber

Although the asphalt lakes of
Trinidad and Venezuela furnish
over 90 per cent, of the asphalt
used, small deposits are found ia
the limestone of Val de Trivas, in
Switzerland;" Seyssel, -on the
Rhone; Cuba and America, de
clares a writer in the New York
Tribune. The largest South
American asphalt lake consists of
a dark brownish deposit of a -semifluid-
and semi-solid substance sur
rounded by banks from three to
six feet high. In the center of th is
lake is a continual ejection of hot
fluid asphalt, accompanied by
large bubbles of gas.
The dark-skinned workmen ex
cavate it in pieces weighing in the
neighborhood of 25 pounds, sec
tions 40 feet in area and about four
feet deep being worked at one
time. As quickly as freed from
its surroundings it is placed in
large tubs, resting upon small
flat topped tramcars- operated
upon a narrow gauge road. The
entire surface is constantly mov
ing, thus necessitating a continual
relaying of the tracks.
The freshly excavated asphalt is
conveyed to the shore, where the
tubs are lifted by hydraulic power
to ah aerial tramway, by which it
is conveyed to a large wharf sit
uated on the Guanoco river, about
five miles distant from the lake.
Here it is weighed and dumped
into the vessels which convev it to
the foreign lands.
Upon its arrival at a factory it
is neatea until tne water js ex
pelled and the earthy msrf '
cast to the bottom of the
vats, and it is poured throug h a
sieve into barrels, where it solidi
fies. It is then ready for com
