' CHINESE MUSICIN COURT.
An Attempt to Decide Whether It Hath
Charme or Hmthn't.
The case brought by J. C. Clunie and
others aBking for an Injunction forbid
ding the erection of the new Chinese
theater came on yesterday before Judge
Cooper, L. A. Thurston for the plain
tiffs, and A. S. Hartwell for the defend
ants, says the Pacific Commercial Ad
vertiser. The grounds on which the in
junction was asked were that all Chin
ese performances necessarily include
an instrumental performance, and that
the orchestra—if the theater were erect
ed—would give such dismal, hideous
and unearthly music that It would con
stitute a nuisance and make life in the
neighborhood not worth living. After
taking the evidence of J. L. Kaulukou,
who testified to the horrid music of the
old theater, Mr. Thurston, who had
summoned intp court the entire Chin
ese band, with'their instruments, of
fered a “performance” in evidence. He
proved by one of the actors that the
music was an Integral part of all
Chinese plays, and Maimed that the
court could fully appreciate the charac
ter of the music only by hearing it. Mr.
Hartwell opposed its introduction as
being contrary to the rules of evidence
and utterly Irregular. He asked if the
case went up on appeal how could the
music be preserved so that the supreme
court could hear it. Mr. Thurston re
plied that it could be preserved in the
' Phonograph, if there Was one, and be-,
sides, he claimed that the music was
not for the supreme court, blit for Judge
Cooper to hern*, in order to settle the
question of fact. After due considera
tion Judge Cooper admitted the per
formance in evidence. The instru
ments were tuned, and, at the word of
command, the five gongs, two cymbals,
big bass drum and several other effec
tive, but Indescribable instruments,
went off. Such music had never before
been heard in the court-room. It rat
tled and screamed and bellowed and
thundered around the room and tried to
burst the windows. The full bench of
the supreme court, sitting in another
room, promptly adjourned and hurried
in. The meeting of the board of health
in the room below came to a dead stand
still, and the audience, including the
cabinet, rushed out in bewilderment
Mr. Marsden, in the agricultural depart
ment below, became wild, it is said,
and tried to get out of the window; but
immediately recovered himself and ex
claimed that ho had now found a new
remedy for the Japanese beetle. The
portraits of the eminent justices,, now
departed, which adorn the walls of the
court-room, were disturbed, and pre
sented the ghastly spectacle of lifting
up their hands and closing their ears.
After five minutes the court ordered
the noise to abate and the trial pro
ceeded.
Whera Three Empires Meet.
There is in the southeastern part ot
the Prussian province, Silesia, a spot
where the frontiers of Germany, Rus
sia and Austria meet. This point,
which is called “The Three Emperors’
Corner,” is in the heart of a great coal
and iron region. Count Schuwalow,
the new governor-general of Poland, re
cently made a trip of inspection through
the iron and industrial districts of Rus
slan-Poland, and upon this occasion
made a visit to this historical spot,
where once the three emperors of Rus
sia, Germany and Austria met and
spoke to each other, while each stood
in his own country. The party was
heartily welcomed by a large number
of German mine workers, who hap
pened to see the cavalcade and the ar
ray of carriages on the other side. Aft
er a short stay the governor continued
.upon his trip, but not before having
called over to a German engineer who
had taken a snap shot of the brilliant
company across the brook, to send him
a copy of a picture made in Germany,
taking in a Russian governor and his
staff, with an Austrian landscape as the
background.
Bath Recommended.
The following Is the horror perpe
trated by a well-known Scottish baro
net: A sportsman said to him the oth
er day: “Talking about dogs with keen
scent, I have one that will compare fa
vorably with any you have in England.'
“Very remarkable dog, I suppose?”
yawned the listener.
“I should say so. The other day after
I left home he broke his chain and, al
though I had been away for hours, he
tracked me and found me merely by
scent. What do you think of that?”
“I think you ought to take a bath,”
replied the Caledonian, turning calmly
away.—Life’s Calendar.
Progress or Christian Endeavor.
The latest denomination to make
Christian Endeavor its official young
people's society is the African M. E.
Zion church. The board of bishops, at’
its recent conference in St. Louis, unan
imously passed a resolution endorsing
the Y. X3. S. C. E. and making Chris
tian Endeavor the denominational
young people’s society. The board* also
recommended that Christian Endeavor
societies be organized in every church
throughout the A. M. E. Zion connec
tion.
Dromedaries as Camels.
Dromedaries are swifter than camels,
and without a load go eight miles an
hour for ten or twelve hours. Caravans
consist of from 1,000 to 4,000, and many
Arabs possess from 400 to 500. They
cast their-hair every year, and it is
made into clothes, stockings, shawls,
carpets,1 etc. Dromedaries live from
forty to fifty years.

STUDY OF THE MOON.
Peculiarities Noted la lu Appeamace at
Dlffereat Season*.
To the casual observer the motions
of the moon appear to be exceedingly
whimsical and irregular, says the St.
Louis Republic. If its place in the sky
is watched it will be found that it is
first north and then south of the stan’s
path, and that it is sometimes east and
sometimes west of that luminary. The
last two motions ore steady and regular
from east to west, carrying the moon in
its endless swing around the heavens,
starting at new moon near the sun and
progressing until at full moon the
whole visible portion of the sky separ
ates the two bodies. After this there
are two weeks in which the moon still
appears to move backward, approach
ing the sun from the other side, then,
again apparently all of a sudden, it
passes the sun and we behold a “new
moon." The north and south motions
of the -moon are entirely different.
While performing its endless Journey
from west to east there are two spe
cial periods in which it either moves
far northward or takes up its position
low down in the south. In spring the
first motion is north, but afterward the
general motion is reversed. In De
cember you will note that the full moon
occurs at the most northerly point in
her course and in June at the most
southerly. This is why we, have most
light from the full moon of winter and
least from that of summer. Observa
tions on these various movements in
dicate to us the path in which the moon
moves about the earth and also show
us that that body in different parts of
its orbit is at varying distances from
the earth. This indicates thatthemoon’s
path is not a circle, but an ellipse, hav
ing the earth in one of its foci. The
moon being governed directly and held
in position by the attraction of the
earth, holds its primary movements in
a path around our globe, but the at
traction energy of the sun and of the
giant planets, perhaps, in a lesser de
gree, produces motions in the moon
which may be summarized briefly as a
combination of the six following move
ments. (1) Its revolution about the
earth, (2) its revolution with the earth
about the sun, (3) the vibrating eccen
tricity of its orbit, (4) the slew, direct
rotation in the “line of apsides," (5) the
retrograde rotation in the line of nodes
and (6) is rotation on its axis. It would
be proper to enlarge this “note" so as
to give a full explanation of the causes
of each of the above-mentioned move
ments, but as each would require the
use of scores of diagrams and technical
phrases such a feat cannot be at
tempted.
HE WAS SAD.
But Be Then Knew How It Seed to Be
with Unemenelpnted Women.
She had yielded to the fascinations
of the new woman idea, and was at
least a neck ahead of the most ad
vanced. Her husband was meek and
lowly, observes the Boston Post, and
adds that they lived out on Fannin
Btreet.
After supper she put on her bloomers,
got her hat and cane, and said she was
going down to the club for an hour or
two. Henry had gone to bed and was
trying to figure out why he had been
born.
She reached up to the gas burner and
said:
“Is there anything I can do for you,
Henry, before I put out the light?”
“Yes, my dear, I’m feeling Tather ner
vous to-night. Would you mind look
under the bed to see if there’s a woman
there before you go out?”
FUU • Down bit ^Pulpit.
The town of Little ton, N. H., has a
woman pastor, Mrs. Frost She first
came to town as the wife of the pastor
of the Congregational church, Rev.
George B. Frost Owing to ill health
he was obliged to go abroad, and the
church Invited Mrs. Frost to supply the
pulpit during his absence. ThiB she did
for a year, when an ecclesiastical coun
cil was called, and, after a most rigid
examination the rite of ordination was
administered and Mrs. Frost was then
fitted legally for all the functions of a
minister. In pulpit, parish, at funerals,
marriage ceremonies and all other ser
vices she was equally acceptable. Tthose
who were at first doubtful of the ex
pediency of t^e step have all been quiet
ly convinced of the wisdom of the plan, j
and, when the pastor was forced, from I
continued ill health, te ask a dismis
sion, It was granted only on condition
that Mrs. Frost should be installed and
be the pqstor. Each advance step lead- !
lng to this remarkable arrangement ha*
been taken by the people. In no in
stance has Mrs. Frost put herself for- j
ward. She is a modest, retiring woman
of marked ability.
Precious Metals.
The statistics regarding the move
ment of the precious metals present
some points of interest. The exports of
gold for the month of August, exclusive
of ore, amounted to $16,667,261, an In
crease of over $11,500,000, as compared,
with those for the corresponding month,
of last year. The imports for the month,
were valued at $1,507,479, a decrease of
over $1,600,000 as compared with those,
for August of 1394. The exports exceeded,
the imports In both months, the excess
being $15,159,782 in August, 1895, and.
$1,935,303 in August, 1894. For the eight
months ending with August the export*
amounted to $55,766,217, which was al
most $34,500,000 lens than for the cor
responding period of the preceding:
year. The Imports amounted to $28,
063,876 In the eight months of 1895, as
compared with $16,035,750 tn eight
months of 1894. For both periods the
exports showed an excess over the im
ports, but wheieaa this exoees amounted
to $74,233,281 in eight months of 1894,
It amounted to only $27,702,341 In eight
months of 1895.
AN ENGLISH OPINION.
AaMrlaan Venn Snarled at by a Lon
don Niwipapvr.
From a London paper: The Ameri
can woman must surely be the vainest
creature that struts about the earth.
Compared to her Yum-Yum, In the
"Mikado,” admiring herself In her mir
ror and congratulating herself on being
the most beautiful woman in all the
world, Is modest She, at least, utters
her conviction only to herself, whereas
the lady from Chicago, 111., or Cicero
ville, Me., goes up on the housetops and
publishes hers abroad to all who care
to listen. Nay, she screams so loud
that we are compelled to listen whether
we will or no. But, paving given ear
to her appreciation of her own charms,
wo go away and think over what we
have heard. Then, after due considera
tion, we go forth in spirit and, finding
an Imaginary American woman of the
sort which writes to the newspapers,
we take her gently by the unsubstan
tial hand of hers and address her—po
litely, we hope, but above all firmly.
“Dearest madam,” we say, “you are not
bad-looking, and it must be confessed
you have gone to one of the best mod
istes in Paris for your clothes. But
you are not a lady—the word is out of
fashion, but the thing never is—and it
is to be feared that nothing could make
you one. You are absolutely self-satis
fied and you show it every minute of
your life, or, as you would say, 'all the
tUne.' You are quite without charm of
manner, yet you think that all men
worship you. Your education has been
of the sort that our board schools give
our coachmen’s children at our expense.
Your own comfort is the one thing you
think of—and here is a piece of comfort
< tor you. So long as you cover yourself
inth diamonds in the morning; so long
as your voice can be heard from one
end of the Rue de la Palx to the other;
so long as your one topic of conversa
tion is your frock and w&at you gave
for it; so long as you sit about in the
public rooms of a hotel In a gown In
which you might go to court; so long as
yen are not afraid to state en pleln table
d’hote that the room was not stuffy and
the women smelt that strong you'd
have been sick right there; so long as
you db all or any of these things, be
lieve me, you need have no fear of being
taken for the only kind of Bngllsh wo
man worth considering.”
ROCHSPORT’S INFLUENCE.
Whs* Ha Said A boat ftutli>| t Haw*
pa par la Braaaala.
M. Rochefort is known in England m
a Boulanglst, aa the editor and proprie
tor of the Intranelgeant newepaper, #as
the wild political agitator who opposed
the government of Louie Napoleon in
the ’60s aa bitterly aa he attacked the
actual republic at the close of the ’80s,
aaya the Saturday Review. English
men can scarcely understand M. Roche
fort’s position as a newspaper editor
and agitator, and his power Is to them
almost Incredible. Tet the signs of his
Influence are not Impalpable. The In
transigeant has a larger circulation
than any French newspaper except the
Petit Journal. The truth 1b that there
are only three or four men in Franoe
who have made their pen a whip, and
so become objects of tear and respect,
and of these M. Rochefort Is the chief,
for neither M. Cassagnac nor M. Dru
mont can be compared with him In wit,
or power of vituperation. His reputa
tion In this sort of journalism dates
back to his youth (he is now a gray
halred man), but was first establlBlpd
by the success of La Lanterne, the
paper he published in Brussels when he
was exiled from France by Napoleon

Ohlmco Girls ud Matrimony.
I have no donbt that the remaining
cause of the' low marriage rate la that
many men dislike intellectual women—
whether because such women are really
disagreeable or because man’s taste Is
at fault, I shall not try to determine.
And even among those who like them
as friends many feel as the young pian
did who made this confession: "I
never expected to marry the sort of a
girl I did. You know I always .be
lieved In intellectual equality and all
that, and had good friendships with the
college girls. But you see, you girls
hadn’t any Illusions about us. After
you had seen us hanging at the board
on problems you could work, and had
taken the same degree yourselves, you
couldn’t Imagine us wonders Just be
cause we had gone through college, and
when I met' a dear little girl that
thought I knew everything—why, it
Just keeled me right over; it was a feel
ing I had no Idea of.”—Century.
Costly Entertainment for a Prlnee.
The Prince of Wales recently paid t
visit to Lily, Duchess of Marlborough.
It was for a few days only and ’’very
quiet,” yet this little Informal stay, It Is
rumored, cost the duchess $60,000. The
suite of apartments which his royal
highqess occupied was newly uphol
stered in pale blue satin,and the prince’s
bath was of plated silver. The main
hall of Deepdene was entirely trans
formed. The statuary was removed and
the walls were hung with trophies of
the chase.
