adier generals in that island.
Corkscrew factories report an ab

Bro. Smith of tho Tontogany Times
'says: If that New Jersey discoverer
who receutly found tho foot prints of
the devil in tho little Prudential stato
would come to Ohio, ho would fiud
tho old man himself over about To
ledo. A woman lecturer in New York
says there would be a panic through
out the country if women should givo
up clothes for a year. She's mighty
right. There would be rheumatism
and bad colds, to say nothing of the
appearance of Anthony Comstock.
The American cement companies,
haying formed a trust, should at least
be able to stick together, but are
they not carrying it a little too far
when thoy build concrete fences
around baseball parks without any
holes for small boys to peer through.
The Masonic lodges in tho state of
Texas, it is said, object to Mr. Taft's
being made a Mason on sight. They
are entirely justified. That goat
in the Masonic lodge ought to have
due warning and an extra allowance
of old tomato cans for such an initiate
as the president-elect.
An exchange says that one-thirdjof
the people in the country think they
can beat tho doctor in healing the
sick. Two thirds of them think they
can put the minister in the holo in
preaching the gospel; and all of
them think they can beat tho editor
in running a newspaper.
The suffragettes and and theeman-
cipettes are arguing that it will not
hurt the babies to be carried to the

tho opinion. A baby is as safe at
the polls as locked in a house while
the mother and father go to a danco.
Tho tidal waves of prohibition that

3HOW HATRED OF FOREIGNERS,
Chinese Historical Plays That
Alive Race Prejudice.
Keep
Historical plays aro acted every
where In China. They aro popular in
tho quiet villages, the homes of the
rich, In the crowded cities, and In the
busy market towns. These plays aro
written with the object of intensify
ing the bltternoss and contempt of the
people against the foreigner. Tho
story of plunderlngs and massacres of
their forefathers is vividly portrayed,
with all tho dramatic power that tho
actors possess. Tho foreigner Is rep
resented as a monster In appearanco.
His face Is dragged out of shape and
his mouth Is mado to appear near his
car. His beard on ono side Is red and
on tho other bluo. His eyes aro fierce
and staring, and murder is stamped
upon his hideous features. Tho peo
ple of the interior, who have never
come Into actual contact with tho for
eigner, have this concoptlon of tho
hated barbarian. To tholr minds
Americans, French, English, Germans
aro all alike, barbarians to bo de
stroyed.

TOOK UMBRAGE AT ASPERSION.
Citizens Resented Being Voted for at
Town's "Meanest Man."
Old Scrooge might be a philanthrop
ic Carnegie alongside certain tight
wads in Mount Vernon, but William
Friedberg has no license to determine
publicly who are the men who would
squeeze a dollar until the eagle
yelled: "Help! I'm melting!" For
conducting a voting contest to deter
mine the meanest man In Mount Ver
non Friedberg, who keeps a cigar
storo there, was fined five dollars by
Judge Piatt here. A warning went
with tho fine.
Friedberg lives In Astoria, but does
business in Mount Vernon. Ho placed
In his window a placard: "Come In
and vote for the meanest man In
Mount Vernon!" This was followed
by a list of names. Conspicuous In
the lot were tho mayor and chief of
police. Then came many solid and
staid citizens. After every name was
a number signifying tho votes the
owner of the name had received so far.
Great wa3 tho wrath of the so-called
"meanest men." Friedberg was or
dered to take the sign out of the win
dow, but he refused to do so. His in
dictment for libel followed. In court
he pleaded guilty, but asserted he did
not know he was violating any law.

The Power of Enthusiasm.
Enthusiasm Is one magnet of power.
You must fire overy event with It,
touch thoughts and acts with It; It will
transmute dross into gold, drudgery
into delight. What matters If the soul
which Hve3 beside you Is cold and
selfish. Set him a good example! Joy
is sunshine and he will feel it. Every
Irksome task is a chance for power.
For the qualities which they bring out
are God's gifts which fit us to enjoy
better things. Easy things will come,
If you have spent your heart's blood
on gaining strength, for tho very goal
of power Is the ease which comes from
strength. Wo laugh at things and peo
ple who used to cow or annoy us, wo
do gracefully and swiftly the tasks,
once so hard. One by one, we have
unrlveted our chains, we are free!

Sensation in "Mystery Ship."
Sydney, Australia, has bad a nov
elty in the shape of a "mystery ship."
An American steamer, the Coronet,
arrived by night in the harbor unslg
naled and unannounced. It was peo
pled by a strange-looking crowd of
men, women and children. The offi
cers woro dressed In clerical attiro
long coats and white ties. Nobody
was allowed on board save tho gov
ernment medical officer and the har
bor master. The Sydney reporters
ascertained that the ship Is connected
with the newest American sect, the
"Holy Ghost and Us," whoso head, a
man named Stanford, claiming to bo
tho reincarnated Elijah, is on board.
Tho Coronet has been cruising for
somo months among tho Pacific

Rats!
A captain on an ocean liner tells the
following story: Coming from tho old
country was a very nervous old lady
who complained that she was sure
thero was a rat. In her stateroom.
"Keep It thero, madam," said tho
captain.
"But do you llko rats?" asked she. 1
"I've got a nest In my cabin," re
torted tho brusque seaman, "and I
novor disturb them. When they leave
tho ship I do." I
"Why, you must bo superstitious,"!
urged the dame.
"No, ma'am,' wound up tho captain;
"I'm not, but tho rats are."
