China's Premier Dismissed Foreign Diplomats [laiginant. Pekin.-An edict dismisses from office Yuan Shi Kal, grand councillor and commander-in-chief of the forces h The reason given for this action is that he has rheumatism of the leg. The edict orders Yuan Shl Kai to va ' cate all his offices and to return to r his home, adding: "s Thus our clemency toward him is manifested." A second edict appoints Na Tung, grand counsellor, presumably in Yu an Shi Kal's place. The members of the diplomatic corps are well nigh thunderstruck at the dismissal of Yuan Shi Kal. Two hours after the foreign min - isters became cognizant of the edict of dismissal, the American, German and British ministers were in con 1 ference at the British legauon. 5 There is nothing to indicate that I the dismissal of Yuan Shi Kai means 2 danger of foreigners, but the good 3 name of China's management of the I crisis following the demise of the I emperor and the dowager empress I and the appointment of a successor t has been swept away by this vindic I tive act, which will astonish and arouse the outside world, cripple SChina's credit and postpone the with drawal of foreign troops probably for five years.

Augusta, Ga.-Invitations accept ed extend Mr. Taft's southern itiner ary to include visits to Birmingham, Ala., and Athens, Ga., and to ad dress the people of Augusta.

If not, he wial include that city in the intiner - ary which he will make for an ex B tended southern trip as soon as his duties as president will permit. s Mr. Taft said that his cabinet would not be completed until March - 4. He added that he expected to make progress in that direction be fore he sailed for Panama, the in i ference being that some of the places would be filled and the announce ments made before he sails. He said he should not consider federal ap pointments until his cabinet was complete. QUARREL OVER TAFT. N-egroes of Atlanta Torn Into Factions. Atlanta, Ga.-A bitter war has broken out between the negro arts tocrats and the common negroes of Atlanta as to which shall take the leading part in entertaining President Taft when he comes to this city from IAugusta on Jan. 15. Mr. Taft has promised to address the negroes and give them a reception on that occa sion.

Fishermen say that starfishes are gregarious; that you might ind on the bottom an acre covered so thick with them that you coulda't walk without stepping on them, but not find another starfish for hundreds of acres ground. This characteristic gregariousness the starfishes in captivity at the Aquarium sometimes show, as when they assemble, as they may, all in one corner of the tank in the angle, tightly holding on there, one above another irregularly, but still close to gether from the bottom of the tank to the top. And when they have assembled thus you may see another curious thing there, namely, green crabs climbing from the bottom to the top of the tank up this starfish ladder. The green crab is not one of the swimming crabs. When it goes any where it has to walk or climb, and as on the bottom it walks along, to climb when it comes to rocks or other ob structicns; it cannot, however, climb up a vertical wall like that of a tank. But here the starfishes, one above another in the corner, make with their bodies and projeoting arms cea venient ridges that the green crabs can hold on by; and so they oliab there up this starfish ladder, finding in this, it may be. some diversion, while as for the starfishes, they den't seem to mind it.-New York Sun. Bachelors. Bsacnelors are cultivated in all large cities. They live in baeheler I apartments and bungalews. They can be seen during the day in counting houses and on the golf links, and in the evening at dinner parties and poker games. Bachelors at one time were easily caught with aknd5t any kind of bait and swalokwed bait, hook, sinker and all often at the first throw. New. however, a more foolish and overoon more wary and hide in the depths of. their basheler apartments, or in the deep poolroesm, from which they can not be lured. They are gregarious in their I.abits, running in schools but they stand by esnh other, and it is very unusual to find a solitary one. Occasionally, however, a more foolish and overcon Sfdent specimen will poke his nose into a summer resort, when he is promptly landed. Bachelors are, in reality, the bul wark ct the nation. By not getting married they do not raise families. Families as we know, are constantly consuming our natural resources. Bachelors are, therefore, really pro viding more natural resources kcr the few. Their conduct, it will be seen, is thus quite unse!lfish.-Life. Fixed Bayonets In London. It is not often that fixed bayonets are seen in the city, which has al ways been so jtaious of its liberties; but recently this infrequent spectacle was presented by a battalion el Grenadier Guards who were returning from Aldershot to the Tower, and saluted the lord mayor in full oanonl. cals on the steps of the Mansion leuse. The privilege of marshing through the city with fixed bayonets is enjoyed by but very few regiments, such as the Royal Fusiliers, who trace their origin to Crospwell's train bande, which, in later years, predaces so famous a captain as John gilpin. After the Royal Fuslliers, or per haps ever before them in point el regimental seniority, come the Mast Kent "Buffs," now the third of the line, who olaim a similar eity anoes try; while the Royal Marines, for some reason or other, also enjoy the same fixed bayonet rights in the city. A battallon of the Grenadler Guards was once impressed to serve uas mar ines, and hence they share the privi lege of the men who are "soldiers and sailors, too." This also explains why that Grenadier battalion has for its tattoo "Rule Britannia"-as a sou venir of the time when its combative existence was 4a the amphiblious kind -lAnden Chronicle. Curious Fishes of the Bahamas. The fish found in Nassau watersr are of never ending interest to the stranger. With the aid of a native Water glass which is a common wood en bucket, with the bottom knwcked out ad a glass bottom put in, it is possible to watch the finny creat ures swimming about, apparently re Igardless of prytng eyes. The par rot fish, with a body the shape and coler of a gold fish, only ten times larger; the eow fish,' with a comical face curiously like a earieature of its bovine sponsor; bog fish, with snouts; grouper, hfine, amber jack and turbot, whosbe exquisitealy tited skin is dried and used by the natives as sorubbing brushes, are all there; but the most beautiful of all is the angel fish, with its blue and yelow wlaglike au.

But I thintk tkrat it eventually proved of the greatest ihtane, as it strengthened the aksles of the wrist mad fosarm., which play such rn important part in all golfng strokes.

I. rsel TONS OF BEET SUAR.I We Make Half a Millen Every Yes in This Country. One of the most important et the industries developed in repaet years is the productiln of sugar from esugr beets. More or lees desultory week was done on sugar beets as ar back as 1887. In 1893 only six fan tories were in operation in this ooua try, the combined outpet of which was a little over 27,000,000 pounds of sugar. According to the National Maga sine, there are now no less than six ty-four factories in operation, with a eeombind output of approximately 600,000 short tons of sugar man factured from beets, with a factory value of $45,000,000. One most important faster has been the production of a high grade sugar beet seed. For many years American growers have been depend ent almost exclusively on foreign ounntries for our sugar beet seed, but for three or four years past the Do partment of Agriculture has been en couraging the successful growth of segar beet seed in this country. It has shown that the seed can be great ly improved by breeding, tests of beets from America grown seed run ning as high as 17. 18 and sometimes 20 per cent. sugar. The Department is also oantinuing investigations to determine the best localities for sugar beet production. When we remember that less than one-fiftth of the sugar consumed In this country is produoed in the States it is plain that there is abundant op pertealty for development; and it is certain that wherever a sugar factory is located labor is immediately in do mead at higher wages and the value of farmlands lncreased from 25 to 50 per cent Men are to be known by their aims rather than by their origins.

The Ingenuity of Inventors. The ingenuity of Inventors and manufacturers is ever at work in the endeavor to reduce the eipense of production, and at the same time to Improve the quality of artilees having a large sale. This is not only benefi cial to the purchasing publ'c, but' it Inures to the benefit of the producer in increasing sales and preventing competition. This has been so in the case of farm maehlnery, eleothing, shoes, bleycles, etc., and now it is ap parent In the safety raser field. Theou sands of this style of rasor have been sold at from $1.650 to $5 each and giv en satisfaction. Recently manufac turers have applied more scientific principles and improved methods I their manufacture, and the result Is seen In the "Bhrp Shavr" razor, whlch is sent postpaid for twenty-five cents In stamps by the Book Publishing House, 134 Leonard street, New York. It is superior to any razor sold, being bought largely by these already owning the highest priced razors. Not every one knows that the best results are obtained by hav intag two or three razors and alternat ing them in use. This practice of al ternating possibly accounts for the very large sale of this low priced Im. plement. If you would be far-sighted you must learn to live on the heights.
