A Yellow book, recently pn.bli.shed lv orHer of the inspector general of cus toms in China, discloses aii enormous development in the native production of opium. There are ten districts in which the native article is largely in use. In some cases , it has driven tlie foreign opium out of the market, andm many the two are blended. In one dis trict the animal production is estimated at XG.000,000 in value, and the funny thing about it is that this all goes on in spite of government prohibition.

MISS ANNA" Cofleo had just been served and the room was filled with snioke and that genial afterglow of pleasant, remnis oent talk that always follows a good dinner, and especially a dinner where old friends have met, old friendships been revived and old stories told. TlieScliien ad been comrades in war and served underbid 'nnje ' flag, held the same political opinions anrSu"P lereu the same losses. All but one had told his story, when our host turned towards him and said: "Well, Harrison, we are waiting for your storv." rrison firm leu ut tXti Liim i v . ga zed into the fire, and then began the following in his soft, Southern drawl: Well, my story happened when we were in Georgia, just outside of Ma rietta, and our mess consisted of six men two Georgians, one Alabamian, a Virginian, myself and a Creole with a beautiful face and a tenor voice that would charm the birds from the trees, named, singularly enough, Orphoe. "We became a very tuneful get under his inspiration, and ex changed musical information with Hiauch -generosity. Our favorite air was thaTatnous;jr;amp song, "Tent ing on the Old Camp Gf6und'I-Xou should have heard us sing it. 0r-plie-e's tenor, my baritone, and the three other fellows chiming in softly, until the very pine trees stopped whispering to listen, and the fire burned softly in admiration, arid war somehow did not seem so hard and cruel. Well, one dark night we were sitting around the fire, discussing with unwearied enthusiasm the pros pects of the cause, when we heard ir regular footsteps outside, and paused in our talk to listen. "You can turn in here until further orders," said our Lieutenant's cheery voice, and a minute afterwards a short thick-set man entered. He made an apologetic little bow, shook himself like a dog, and, taking off his large wideawake, disclosed a dark, square face, with shy, dark eyes, blue-black hair, and a wide, firm mouth. He smiled tenderly, giving an air of great sweetness to an other wise sombre face. He sat down on a blanket, Turkish fashion, quietly hoped ho was not disturbing us. and then dropped his eyes meditatively on the ground. Silence reigned. Wo were too disconsolate to be polite, and so listened uneasily to the slow, indefinite stirrings of the wind through the trees, -when suddenly a new sound arose, as of stealthy, un certain footsteps coming nearer and nearer. The newcomer pricked up his ears, and his face wore an expres sion almost approaching guilt. "A spy," was my first illogical conclusion, as I rose to my feet and waited ex pectantly. The flap of the tent stirred slightly, cautiously; the wind rose and swept the darkened landscape; the rain poured down with a rush, as if to give a tragic significance to what was about to happen, for something did happen the flap was suddenly push- ed aside, and a croat walked in and went straight to the stranger, who received her with an indescribable tenderness of look and gesture. "A rum go," said the Virginian under his breath. We all agreed, but contented our selves with staring at the strange spectacle g a man and a goat fond ling each other with uncouth marks of affection. After a while we resumed our old lazy positions and silently awaited further developments. The littl-3 man signed the goat to a re mote spot,; where she lay down, and then, turning towards us, said as if taking up an unrepressed thought: "You see, boys, I could not help it if Nannie would follow me. ,1 have been good to her, and she remembers it. 1 had to leave home secretly to escape her, and all through the jour ney I felt like a scoundrel, and now well, here she is." . He stopped abruptly without wait ing for comment, and lay down with a short good night. 1 lay awake several hours a fter the others, wonder ing idly a3 to the probably tie which bound the new-comer to the goat, but arrived at no solution. From that night Parsons and his goat be came a subject of never ending spec ulation to the mess. He was very quiet and unobtrusive, never resent ing, although contriving to evade, impertinent questions, and bearing everything with a good nature amounting to stupidity. As for the goat, she became the hapless butt of the whole division. We called her derisively "Miss Anna," treating her with an amount of mock considera tion that made Parsons' eves fnirlv glisten with appreciation. The second night after their arrival we began to sing, as usual, when the Virginian rose, and in a speech, the delicate humor of which I shall not attempt to reproduce, begged that "Miss Anna's rest should not bo broken by our rude chatis;; forcret the broken, tender, deprecating little reply that j came from Parsons, and how we con sented at last to sing. His face was so rapt as he sat beating time with his forefinger and occasionally quav ering out an effective"Dying To-night, Dying To-night," we sang as if our very life blood was ebbing away, that I began to realize the absolute cowardice of ridiculing a perfectly innocent, unconscious man. I began to trv and shield him from the fun- makers, and was finally joined by Orphee, who became and eloquent partisan. As for Parsons, he grew almost to worship the handsome, sweet-voiced ad. One luckless afternoon, Parsons, Orphee and I strolled off together, leaving "Miss Anna" to the mercies of our mess; but tormented by some vague presentment of evil, I induced my companions to return a little earlier than they intended. As we neared the tent my ear caught the sound of derision that came first from our Virginian, and were then finally caught up by the others and then ended in peal after peal of laughter. VvTe pushed eagerly in. Alas! "Miss Anna," decked out in the most ridic ulous toggery, had been tied between four stakes driven into the ground and the men were engaged m prick higher with pine burrs until the poor animal fairly writhed with agony In a minute we had freed her and Par sons held the poor bleeding creature close to his breast. His small, square figure seemed to rise and dilate with a certain sense of superior power, as he turned his blanched face and blaz ing eyes upon the crowd. "You call yourselves gentlemen, he said harshly, "you who have tor- ioor, dumb, defenseless creature leiTTrr-vojir care. Thank God, my meaning oftEe wrr4-i&jdif- ferentl You have no excuse, lou are all supposed to be men and hon orable men, men who . are fighting lor the rights ot their country, ana call onse yourself with J J sucn senseless cruelty, ns-'yo have practiced this afternoon. You have branded yourselves as cowards and liars, for" and here his voice broke suddenly-"I trusted you." There was an ominous, threaten ing stir in the little tent, and several men stepped out towards the speak er, picturesque in his very unpictur esqueness, whose grotesque figure stood out sharply against the bit of landscape showing through the open ing in the tent. But his face awed them back. The goat turned and moaned pitifully, rubbing his nose against Parson'3 coat with mute in sistence. His face softened wondcr fullv, he seemed to forget the men, his anger, everything, and he whis- icreci to her m sole, caressing tones. "T6u-liave followed me "through thick and thm:':'5ite3Anna, When the overflow came and we were 6 mg, it was you who struggled back to us through the water, and it was your milk that kept us alive. Every thing then depended on your strength. We called our baby after you and when the poor little one died it cut me cruelly, cruelly. lean not forgive this day's work. Be brave, Miss Anna, - be brave," and putting his cheek on Miss Anna's head the tears fairly rolled out of hi3 eyes. He stopped a minute, drawing in his breath in short, quick little sobs and threw out both hands with a for lorn gsesture of abandonment. "Oh! great God! I was so lonely when wile and babies all were dead, and I loved Miss Anna then; I love her now as the one relic left me of that beautiful, vanished past. Then the war came and I tried to leave you, thinking it would be best, but you followed me to be ridiculed, de spised and even tortured. All the con duct of the past week breaks over me and I see what a blind fool I have been." "Parsons, you're to go on picket duty to-night, and you had better start now," called in the voice of our lieutenant. The men, now thoroughly ashamed of themselves, came nearer and were about to offer some heart felt words of apology, but Parsons turned fiivav. antl rlplivprino- "Miss plead- Anna" over to Orphee, said bly: "If anything should happen to me, you will take care of her?" Orphee's eyes filled with tears as he pressed tiie extended hand. Without another word or look Parsons strode out into the dark. "We're brutes, cowardly brutes!" said our Virginian, disgustedly. "I would rather face a million Yan kees than hear that man's story told in that voice again," said another. That night was a weary one. We could not forget the solemn figure, the dark, patient face, the broken, harsh, tender voice, and the pines above the river far away seemed to mingle their grief at our cowardice and brutality. Meanwhile "Miss Anna" slept peacefully on the best blanket of the mess, while we lay there sleepless, thoughtful, unhappy, even the greater issue of the war momentarily forgotten. i With the dawn came action. The Yankees were upon us, and we fought like wildcats. As evening came on the fight Avas suspended, and when our mess met everybody was there, "Miss Anna" included, except Par sons. We had made up a scheme to beg his forgiveness and to swear to be gentlemen, at least. Each of us had a separate speech of apology to make expressive of shame and contrition. When night settled down and Parsons did not appear we grew anxious, and sat silently around, not daring to breathe the great fear uppermost in our minds. "Miss Anna," too, walked up and down uneasily, sniffing the air and rubbing her nose against any convenient shoulder. As we sat thus our lieutenant called in to me: "Harrison, step here a minute." I arose and went out a little un steadily. ' "Parsons was hurt last night on guard, and has asked to see you. Go now; there isn't much time I'm afraid." I He turned to lead the way. "i may ten tnemr" l said. 4-V "No use,' he answered shortlv, as Orphee's stricken face appeared in the doorway. ...Wei, I followed him to the rude hut eeleeted for our hospital. It was lighted by torches, ar.d ibe surc-ona were busv with the men "who had fal- n in the day's fight. In the farthest comer of the room Jay Parsons. I knelt down by him and tookhishand.

I'm such a devil of a fellow when I lose my tem per," he said pathetically, "and Har rison, I beg pardon, old fellow but, Miss Anna! His eyes apologised amply for this inquiry, and 1 went in searcn oi tne men and then charge. They followed me eagerly, and we unconsciously v fell into a procession and moved through the door with "Miss Anna" in our midst. It must have been a strange sight, a half dozen men and a goat marching sol emnly up the aisle of the rude cabin, but to the credit of human nature, be it said, nobody laucrhed or seemed to observe the humorous side of the situation. "Miss Anna!" The voice broke like a sob across the stillness, and the faithful friend pressed close to .her master's side. The strong men who had faced death so unflinchingly all day quivered and shrank before this new phrase. Orp hee looked lenjrinffly into the dying face as the white lips murmured of bygone days, of baby hands and ten der, wifely kisses. "Miss Anna," "the voice began ajrain, weakly, "the boys all know and love her," and then suddenly rec ollecting, he turned his eyes on the manly bearded face around him, and noted their moist eyes, then with the old frank smile of appreciation he "-muttered: "Dyinr to-night, dying to-nigTitr-6ing4ti Orphee." wind sighed airily through theOT - 4 rowful pines, but distinct and clear rose the voice of Orphee, that sweet li5g. tenor, thrilling with tears and pathos.

The wbaied men turned on the rough .floor, the surgeons desistei from their work, and one little fellow, his breast shot to pieces, crossed himself involunta rily, stirred by the sorrowful sweet ness. - ; -- ' '- ; Again Parsons spoke: "Be good, boys, to 'Miss Anna.' No better, truer sweetheart could you find. Say with me now, God bless 'Miss Anna,' " And we said it with him. I "Amen," he answered solemnly, and with a spasm of pain ho was ly ing there quite still, smiling tenderly as of old, with "Miss Anna" close to his4?at. ' ' "And rMiss AnnaT.'asked the host. "Was shot do wntheifext morning in the first charge." rf There was silence for a feAV minutes, and then . Harrison raised his glass and looked wistfully around. In an instant the glasses were refilled, and with reverently bowed heads and hushed tones the whole room drank to the memory of "Miss Anna." New Orleans Times-Democrat. What Is Electricity? As the use of electiricity becomes more general there is increased curi osity to learn what it is, says The Electric Power. It is considered a mysterious force, because in its nor mal condition it cannot be seen. The wire which conveys the current gives no manifestation of the energy which is passing through it: Just as the poet said, "We take no note of time save from its loss." So with electri city, it must be measured as it flies. It is true, however, that its laws are perfectly understood. Isitnecessary that we should know what it is? Nothing is more familiar to us than the action of gravitation. We know that it is the attraction of the earth. It holds the atoms of the earth to gether and enables us to perform all of the operations which make up our daily life. It is, however, a mystery, but its laws are as well known, and if we violate them by jumping off a precipice should we consider the force of gravity necessarily dangerous? Steam is also something of a mys tery. It has been familiar to man kind since the dawn of civilization, yet how many people know that it is transparent and therefore invisible until it comes in con tact with the air? .
