THE CHINESE EMPEROR.
Story of the Present Celestlnl Soverolgn’i
Accession to Power.
The announcement ot the birth of
hn heir to the emperor of China,
which was published a short time
ago, recalls the story of the tragedy
which signalized his accession to the
throno. His prodooessor, T'ung-chi,
died, as was announced, of smallpox,
January 12, 1875. It is said that
his death was really due to poison.
At the time ot his death his empress,
Ahluta, the daughter of Duko Clung,
whom he had married in October,
1872, when he was 1G, was pregnant
Her child, if a boy, would have been
the legal emperor, as well as heir by
direct descent She was put in what
was represented as honorable confine
ment rendered nocessary by her be
ing the widow of the dead emperor
and the possible mother of the future
emperor, in the course of whioh she,
with her unborn child, died. Her
death was officially attributed to her
refusing food because of her grief at
the loss of her husband, but there is
said to be good reasons for belioving
that it was due to the same means
wmcn are auegou 10 nave caused
her husband’s death. The China
Mail said ol her death at the time:
“Her fate has Indeed beon an un
happy one. Wedded at the age of
15, she became a widow at 17,' and
since the death of her husband has.
if native reports are to be believed,
led a most miserable life. She is
said to have refused all food for
some days previous to her death and
have sunk from exhaustion. Wheth
er these reports are true or not, we
can easily believe that her position
was a most unenviable one. At bast,
she was exposed to perpetual seclu
sion for many years to oome, while
she was exposed to intrigues which,
in view of her expected confinement,
might have had her death and that
of the possible child as their object.
Death was probably a relief. ”
Other more outspoken authorities
attributed her death to foul means.
The reason her death was desirable
was because the two dowager empress
es, who were regents of the Flowery
kingdom, wanted to clear the way
for the then infant son of Prinoe
Chrun, the “seventh prince,” a mem
ber of the lmperiai family, although
not of direct descent, whom, for rea
sons which do not appear, they had
agreed to make the nominal occu
pant of the throne. One of these
dowager empresses was the hapless
Ahluta’s mother-in-law. This infant
became of age March 1887, and as
sumed control of the government in
February, 1889, when Ahluta’s moth
or-in-law, who had survived her co
regent, withdrew from power.
The present sovereign, who reigns
under the style of Kwangsii, was
married February 26, 1889. The
birth of his heir renders the succes
sion of dynasty comparatively secure,
although lie himself is in bad health
and is not likely to live long. When
he was proclaimed emperor, in ac
cordance with Chinese oustoms, his
dead predecessor was declared to
have adopted him, and an ediot to
that effect was promulgated through
out the empire.
A True Scholar.
Theodore Mommsen, the famous
historian of Rome, had not only the
appearance, but the manner of a
scholar. Once during the half-hour's
drive from Berlin to Charlottenburg,
the ■ car in whioh the professor rode
went badly off the track. The rest
of the passengers alighted, the
horses were removed, and the
stranded car was left until help
could be found. Mommsen remained,
reading his book. An hour passed,
and the sound of levers and jacks
and the plunging of horses’ hoofs
aroused him from his reverie. With
no sign of disoomposure, he rose
from his seat and went to the door.
“Ah," said he, “wo seem to have come
to a standstill."—Argonaut.
Yum-Yumy—Very,
“There,dear,” remarked the young
wife, who was trying “love in a cot
tage,” just after the lapse of the
honeymoon, while she sat with her
husband at the breakfast table, “you
forgot to get sugar yesterday, so you
have none for breakfast ”
“Oh, yes, I have. I’ve got you."
“But you can't sweeten your coffee
with me,” she said, with a love-light
in her eye.
“Maybe not; but I can sweeten my
life with you."
“How nice that sounds,” she said:
“just tike books.”—Toledo Blade.
A Lover's Mistake.
Mr. Westside—Why does that
young lady to whom you are en
gaged always wear a piece of court
plaster on her cheek?
Johnnie Masher — That’s easily
enough explained. She has a twin
sister, and they are so much alike
that I am always kissing the wrong
one. To avoid battle, murder and
sudden death my intended now wears
that piece of court plaster.—Texas
Siftings. _
Broken Promises*
Mother—You have broken your
promise to obey your papa, and 1
shall have to whip you! Little Son—
Didn't you promise to obey papa
when you were married? “Y-e-s.”
“Did your mamma whip you when
you broke it?’’—Good News.
A Matter of Opinion.
Jack—Is it pleasant to kiss?
May — There is only one thing
swoeter.
Jack—What's that?
May—To be kissed! (And the
clock struck 12 four times in succes
sion without thinking.)
Worse Than Sick.
Little Ethel—Bobby Wilson hasn't
been to school for two daya
Ethel's Mamma—Is he Bick?
Ethel—On, no’m! It’s worse than
that. His ma has just cut his hair.
CANINE KNOWLEDGE OP TIME.
fitorlea Which Seem to l’ron Womlerfal
Perception of Thle Kind.
A correspondent ot tho Boston
Transcript rooently sent a communi
cation asking if dogs know time, and
then related some stories showing
that they da Ono of these storios is
about a collie which starts ovory af
ternoon to moot his master, who al
ways comes on the 5:80 train. Trains
are continually coming and going,
and whistling and ringing, but Pete
pays no attention to any but this
ono. As soon as its whistle is heard
he begins to bark joyfully, and never
makes a mistake. Another dog be
came so much accustomed to going
to the schoolhouso overy morning
with his little master that, when the
boy was absent for several weeks,
the dog still went on going to school,
arriving punctually at U o'clock
every morning. Moreover, ho never
went on Saturday or Sunday. With
regard to i,ho first case it might
be replied, perhaps, by a skep
tical person that the dog was
more likely to be able to distinguish
the special whistle of the locomotive
which drew the 6:80 train than to
know it by the hour of the day. And
yet there is no doubt that dogs do
know when a certain hour arrives at
which something regular and accus
tomed takes placo. The second case
seems to prove this very thing.
There is a case on record in which a
doctor who was accustomed to visit
a oertain village at a certain hour on
a certain day each week, always
iouna a a03 01 ms acquaintance
waiting for him outside the town,
and it was proved that the dog never
came to the place at any other day
or hour. Evidently all that can bo
said in explanation of such cases is
that animals are susceptible of hav
ing periods or circles of time estab
lished in their intolligenoe by use
and that their ignorance of time
pieces only serves to make the in
stinct the keener. ' it is well known
that men who have never possessed
watches) and who work or bunt
habitually at a distance from the
clocks are very expert at estimating
the lapse of time. Perception of
this kind undoubtedly may be culti
vated in an intelligent animal as
well as in man.
A Caravan to Mecca.
The largest of the caravans which
go annually to Mecca, is the Syrian
or Damascus caravan. This starts
from Scutari, the Asiatio suburb of
Constantinople, and, after gathering
pilgrims through Syria, makes a Anal
rendezvous at Damascus. Here it
remains three weeks and changes
camels before it finally starts for
Mecca. It consists of from 80,0 )0
to 50,000 pilgrims and is under the
special protection of the Turkish sul
tan. The next greatest is the Egyp
tian, which starts from Cairo and
goes by the head of the Ked sea
These are now the only two cara
vans which go every year, but thero
are several others which go nearly
annually. The most important of
these are the Persian from Bagdad
and that from Jeddah. The great
Indian caravan from Muscat has been
given up, and those from Babylon
and Morocco have become very ir
regular. Only a few Mohammedans
perform the pilgrimage from pious
devotion. The majority undertake
it with a view to trade, while many
are pilgrims by profession and are
paid to perform the sacred duty for
others.
An Adjustable Dream.
An Irish earl and his lady were
riding out one morning, and meeting
one of their tenantry, gave her a
kindly greeting.
“And sure 1 had a dream about
ver honor sending me a pound of to
baccy, and yer leddyship a pound of
tay; and it’s joyful I am to tell ye,
this morning," said the aocustomed
beneficiary.
“But my good woman." replied
the earl, “drqams go by the contra
ry."
“Indade, then, yer honor is to
send the tay and her leddyship the
tobaccy," was the quick-witted re
ply.—New York Ledger.

An Anthem.
This definition of an anthem is ac
credited to a British workman. Un
dertaking to explain the meaning of
the word to an inquiring friend, he
began: “Well, if I said ‘Bring me
a pickax,' that would not be an an
them; but if I said ‘Bring—bring—
bring—bring me the pick—pick—
pickax—bring me the—bring me the
—pick—pickax,’ that would be an
anthem. ”

The Nebraska State Journal, which has

There will be no reduction in quality

TURNING AN HONEST PENNY.
Actors Who Spend Their Spare Time In
Hard Work.
It must not be imagined that all
actors are idle spendthrifts. An actor
playing small parts with a company
of fine repute was seen little about
the streets, hotel offices or saloons
during the day, and the company im
agined he was in his room studying or
resting, until one evening at the per
formance a traveling man in the au
dience sitting near tbe door said to
the manager: “Is that young man
who has just left the stage going with
your company?”
□ “Oh, yes,” replied the manager, “he
has been with the company all sea
son."
“Why,” said the traveling man, “he
shaved me in the barber shop this
afternoon, and also one day at your
last stand.”
I heard of the leading man in a
company in the “wild and woo'ly
West,” who had been a horseshoer,
and always carried his implements
along with him, so that he could earn
an,honest dollar during the time he
was not at the performances. As soon
as he arrived in a village he would
visit the blacksmith shops in search of
Railroad Through the Sea.
An interesting experiment is about
to be carried out at Brighton, England,
in the shape of the construction
of a marine railway for the purpose
of connecting ' Brighton with the
little village of Rottlngdean, some
three or four miles to the
eastward. The rails will be laid
on the solid rock with concrete,
and at high water will be covered by
the sea, which, however, will not ef
fect the carriages, the latter being
supported on a framework that keeps
them high and dry. At this part of
the coast the cliffs are high, and the
beach is practically inaccessible, so
that no boating traffic will be inter
fered with. The cars will be moved
by electricity, like tbose now in use
along the eastern foreshore of Brigh
ton.
The sovereign in Europe who stands
most in need of a friend and compan
ion whose fidelity and loyalty are
above all suspicion is the unfortunate
czar, who, like his predecessors on the
throne of Peter the Great, has so often
found himself deceived and betrayed
by just those of his courtiers, his offi
cials and even his relatives upon whom
he had bestowed the greatest amount
of kindness
Under these oircumstances it is not
astonishing that he should place his
principal reliance on a superb and
huge Danish dog, with short mouse
colored hair and quite as big as a
young donkey.
The dog, a gift of his father-in-law,
King Christian of Denmark, is the
successor of a similar hound, which
lost its life in the terrible railroad
accident at Borki, when the imperial
train was entirely destroyed, the czar
and czarina escaping all injury save
the shock to their nerves in the most
miraculous manner. Alexander’s preh
eat dog is not only by hU side wbcti
he walks out, asleep beside .his bet at
night, but Is also present when he
grants audiences, sniffing at strangers
in an inquiring and sometimes sus
picious manner, which is not without
exercising a certain influence upon the
treatment accord by the czar to his
visito;.
