Hsien is a statue draped s of a mandarin (the pa ting or police master) named Chin. who gave his life for the people. An exile who was in the camp at Jao- chow and who owed the hsien (district magistrate) a grudge, rode a black horse to Loping and, having killed the hsien, got back for the Jaochow roll call next morning. As the murderer | could not be found orders came from the capital that a large number of the people shculd be killed. To prevent this slaughter of innocent folk the pu ting, a good old man, said he stabbed the hsicn after a few words over. the wine cups, and he was consequently beheaded. No resident of the district would deal the tatal blow, but an itin- erant cobbler or bamboo worker did 11 for a reward of 40 taels. Tradition adds that he was struck dead by light ning after leaving the execution grouné ~Chinese Mercury. Feminine Resource.

AGENT DISCUSSES PLANS “Pussyfoot” Johnson, in Charge of the Crusade, Declares He Will Enforce Treaty Laws Without Discrimina- tion—Reiuses to Say What Action Will Be Taken in Regard to Larger Cities Affected. Minneapolis, Nov. 25.—Hibbing, Chis- holm, Nashwauk, Bovey and the other towns on the Mesabi range, which have considered themselves immune from the liquor crusade of the Indian bureau, may suffer the same fate as Bemidji, Cass Lake, Park Rapids and Detroit, where the saloons were re- cently closed. W. E. Johnson, known as “Pussy- foot,” special agent of the interior de- partment, arrived here and made known his intention to enforce the treaty provisions without discrimina- tion. According to a map which he has prepared Ribbing and the other towns mentioned above are just within the restricted territory and although there are no Indians nearby and. there has never been any complaint about vio- lating the Indian liquor laws they must suffer with the others. Mr. John- son has not entirely verified his map, but he say’s he will close the saloons if his map is correct. He places the blame for the present agitation on F, W. Zellman, a St. Paul attorney. “We are going much farther in this matter than the Indian bureau ever intended,” he said. “We have been forced to proceed with extreme meas- ures by the breweries themselves. Rather it is F. W. Zollman, who is re- sponsible for the new course of events.” . Attorney Was Too Zealous. Mr. Johnson here delivered a tirade against the attorney, in which he said that Mr. Zollman, in his attempt to gain preference and advantage for the Hamm Brewing company, brought about the whole state of affairs. “He started the whole hue and cry against me,” the special agent said, and charged that we were discriminat- ing, when as a matter of fact, we were acting perfectly square.” He cited the case of the time when 100 Indians came to Walker to get liquor. They were turned down and immediatelv went to Park Rapids. The Indian agent notified the authorities at the latter place, where, in spite of the promises of the merchants and city officials, the entire band of In- dians got drunk. Johnson closed the Park Rapids sa- loons then, and, according ta his state- ment, Attorney Zollman stirred up the fuss which caused all the trouble. Mr. Johnson would not say what ac- tion will be taken in regard to Minne- apolis, Moorhead and other cities cov- ered by Indian treaties. CHARLES H. ELLIOTT DEAD Prominent Resident of Rochester, Minn., Passes Away. Rochester, Minn., Nov. 25.—Charles H. Elliott, one of the founders of the Olmstead County Democrat and also the Rochester Bulletin, the first daily paper to be published in this city, passed away very suddenly at his home, angina pectoris being the cause. Nine weeks ago to the day C. Ellf- ott, the fataer of the deceased, died in the same manner very suddenly at the Vendome hotel, Minneapolis. Last July Adin Elliott, a son of C. Elliott and brother of Charles E. Elli ott, also died suddenly in Milwaukee, afflicted with the same malady. Barred the Red Heels. Once actors used to say that they were going “to study a part for per- formance;” now the saying is that one “gets up in a part,” which may be one of the reasons why there were once more studied performances than there are now. As an example of how much can be safely left to the intelligence of even tried actors is the case of the Napoleonic play that Charles Frohman was once rehearsing. In the midst of the dress rehearsal an actress of sup- posed all around experience, cast for one of the Paris street denizens, one of the mob of revolutionists, was dis- covered gayly decked out in patent leather shoes with jolly red heels. *“No. my child,” said Mr. Frohman, *“not red heels and a revolutionist too.” “But they look ever so much prettier and give color to the scene,” persisted the actress. “That may be,” continued- Mr. Frohman, “but the mob did net wear red heeled shoes; get your color ‘with a red handkerchief or from your makeup table, but not with red heels.” Successful Trap Shooting. _. Alm your gun a little above the shed protecting the tiaps. Give the call “Pull” Do not get rattled. Get your bird as it is going up or at its maxi- mum height and then fire. aiming about six or eight inches ahead and a trifie below it.. The tendency. is al- ways to shoot too high. not allowing for the speed of the descent. 'Above all things fire, even if you know you are going to miss. There is nothing so disconcerting or fatal to the poise as to allow a fairly thrown target to get altogether away without shooting at it at all. When calling “Pull” put some ginger into it. *Bark it,” an old trap shot used to say. Don’t falter it, as though apologizing for being alive. It hurts your confidence and rattles the trap pullers. If you stand with' your gun ready and mumble “Pull” three or four times before the target is thrown the chances are overwhelming’that in Outing. Fhere Was No Applause, Just before the operation began the operating surgeon said to the students, “Now, gentlemen, no*applause, if you please.”” ~ ‘When he was convalescing. the pa- tient declared -that that warning re- mained” his most vivid impression of the ordeal. “I wondered then how any human being could have the heart to applaud an act that ‘had brought another face to face with death, but later 1 under- stood. - On account of heart trouble they did not dare administer an anaes- thetle, so I was conscious of every- thing, and in spite of the ‘pain I re- alized that the surgeon was doing a mighty skiliful piece of work. No wonder the students wanted to ap- ud. They were justified in it. “‘Some years ago'they would have clapped the house down after an ex- hibition of that kind,’ an old hospital attendant told me, ‘but nowadays doc- tors discourage any such demonstra- tion’ ”—New York Sun. Forgery In Excelsis. The most remarkable literary for- gery on record was perpetrated in 1870 on Michael Chasles, a French sclen- tist of European reputation. Chasles, who was in his dotage. purchased within a few years from one Vrain- Lucas no ' fewer than 27,000 auto- graphs. A. M. Broadley tells the story in his “Chats on Autographs:* *Be- ginning with a supposed correspond- ence between the youthful Newton and Pascal, Vrain-Lucas proceeded to fabricate letters of Rabelais, Montes- quieu and La Bruyere. Before he had finished M. Chasles became the posses- sor of letters in French., and written on paper made in France, of Julius Cae- sar, Cleopaira. Mary:. Magdalene and even of Lazarus after his resurrec- tion.” Vrain-Lucas was sentenced to two years’ imprisonment, and among other forged manuscripts from his pen there were produced in court letters from Alexander the Great, Herod. Pompey, Judas Iscariot, Sapphe, Pon- tius Pilate and Joan of Arc! The Liama With a Saddle. In his native country the llama is trained as a beast of burden. and in this capacity is very useful for, hard and wiry by nature, he can carry as much as a 160 pounds. As a mount, too, he is quite easy to train. Indeed. both the llama and the oneiko take to the - saddle as to the manner born when once they have assured them- selves that their teacher wishes them well. Their most striking peculiarity as saddle animals, however, is a strong objection to having their heads in any way pulled about by their riders. So long as their mouths are left alone they will amble along quite contented- ly at a fair rate of speed. but if they are ridden by some one with a heavy hand they show a tendency to stop at once, whipping round in a manner dis- tinetly disconcerting to those who do not quite realize what is going to hap- pen.—Wide World Magazine. Turn About. In a certaln southern city the col- ored servants, as a rule, go to their own homes at night. The cook in the family of a clergyman not only does this, but of late has arrived-.at the rectofy too late to cook breakfast. Hence her mistress lately told her that for each breakfast missed there would be a reduction In her weekly wages. Dinah passively assented to this, but next day the mistress beard the maid next door say to her: “'Pears to me you get to work mighty late.” “I1 gets to work when I gets ready.” 'was the reply. “How does you manage about de brekfus?” “Oh, I pays de missus to cook de brekfus.’ "—Housekeeper. A Schoolboy’s Story of Jonah. A school board boy, competing for one of the Peek prizes, evolved this confusion of widely different events. He had to write a short biography of Jonah, and he produced the follow- ing: “He was the father of Lot and had two wives. - One was called Ish- male and the other Hagher. 'He kept one at home and turned the other into the dessert, when she became a pillow of salt in the daytime and a pillow f fire at night.”—From Wheatley's “Lit- erary Blunders.

What She Did Wish., “Well, why don’t you say you wish you were a man?’ asked Mr. Potts during a little discussion he was hav- ing with his spouse about some mat- ters of domestic management, “Because I don’t wish anything of the sort,” she retorted; “1 only wish you were one!” Quisk Both Ways. A Scutch laird once said to his serv. ant, John, who had complained of his temper, “l am sure, John, it is nae suner on than it's off." “Aye” sald John; “but, laird, it's nae suner off than it's on.” Not at All Necessary. *What was-the cause of the quarrel with your husband?” “I want you to understand. judge, that when we want to fight we don't bave to bave a’ cause.”—New York Press.

Despite their prefereuce for a repub- Hean form of government, the French are in some respects a conservative nation. A Paris contemporary discov- ered that oue of the doors of the pa- lais de justice is left ajar throughout the night.. This door has never been shut since March 4, 1618, when Louis XILL ordxined that it should remain -perpetually open “so that my subjects may be able to seek justice at all hours of the day and night” How- ever, an enterprising journalist who presented himself at the door in the small hours of - the morning was promptly ejected by a watchman, And ‘when he quoted the ordinance of 1618 the reply was, “If you don’t clear off you'll find yourself coming in by the prisoners’ * or tomorrow.” In gold and silver jewelry—such as Medals, Emblem Chains, fancy Diamond mounting in Rings, Pins, etc.; precious and semi precious stones, Pearls, Elk Teeth—to be mounted should be given at once in order to have same properly made in time for Xmas.

For years Squire Latham, of whom many amusing stories are told, was a resident of Bridgewater, Mass., und it was while he was living there that the incident occurred which is related be- low. It illustrates his habitual coolness and whimsical temper. He was awakened one night by his wife, who told him she thought there were burglars in the house. The squire put on his dressing gown and went downstairs. In the back hall he found a rough looking man trying to open a door that led into the back yard. The burglar had unlocked the doo: and was pulling it with all his might. “It doesn’t open that way, you idiot!" shouted the squire, taking in the man’s predicament instantly. “It slides back!

Vietor Hugo had a real double in flesh and bloed, who exploited his physical resemblance to the man of genius. He cut his beard like Hugo's, copied the master's dress in its small est details and so for eighteen years divided with the master the admira- tion of the public. His especial de- light was to pose in a poetical attitude in front of a Punch and Judy show. He did this at a particular spot every Thursday atternoon for years, thor- oughly enjoying the murmurs of curi- osity and applause proceeding from the. gaping crowd which he deceived.
