Tlie Chinaman's lloroes. j
The Chinese are not usully credit-1
etl with uierciful qualities, but if tho:
man is merciful who is merciful to
his beast the quality must be nat- j
ural to many Chinese in America. ;
The few Chinese in our great cities:
who deliver goods to their country-1
men or havo other ustss tor horses ;
often possess sleek and well fed imi-,
mals whose care shows great iotv.l
neiis and generosity. .
The Oregoniau nays that theie is
a Chinese vegetable neddierin Port

been admired by his customers. He
feeds them on tlie street, and one j
day lately some pa.-sersby, who sawj
that the man always st tnicd to be;
concocting some special dish lor the'
team, watched him prepare their
luncheon.
First ho led tho horses into the
shade, loosened the traces and took

WASHINGTON MONUMENT.
How the I'.'-S Shaft Waa Taken t'p and
I'ushed to Completion.
"Not many know it, hut the Dis
trict militia are entitled to the credit
of having the Washington monu
ment completed," remarked an old
official at the capitol to a reporter.
"As every one knows or should
know, the monument was an unfin
ished shaft for nearly 30 years.
There was a feeling that the whole
thing was a mistake, and no one
seemed to take the lead in having
the work resumed. Indeed a feel
ing had grown up that, after all, the
monument was not exactly the
thing it should be. Many prominent
persons thought that an arch would
be a better work, and some urged
that the unfinished structure 6hould
he turned into one leg of an arch
and another erected. Others were
strongly opposed to the location,
and it was very seriously urged that
the site should be changed. Some
thought it should go to Meridian hill
and others that the monument
should be moved to the circle on
Fourteenth street and its juncture
with Massachusetts avenue, where
the Thomas statue now stands. Sen
ator Morrill led the movement for
the arch idea, and in it he had the
support of many who thought they
were really artistically inclined and
who thought the day for shafts had
passed away. In 1876, the centen
nial jear, the District militia was
stronger than it was ever before or
since. At that time the idea of sol
diery was parades, brass bands and
the like. The modern idea of organ
izing soldier companies to spend
their leisure time shooting rifles at
a mark in the rifle ranges had not
been dreamed of, and target firing
was more of a good natured frolic
than anything else. There were
hundreds of young men who made
elegant and proud looking soldiers
wbo were by no means successes as
marksmen and who had no ambi
tion in that direction. On tbe 22d
of February, 1876, there was what
was general then, a parade of the
soldiers, a practice which, I regret
to notice, has dropped out of late
years.
"The parade that day was a partic
ularly good one, and as a result
there was enthusiasm all along
Pennsylvania avenue. Congress was
in session and a month previous had
been to Philadelphia and dedicated
the grounds tor the Centennial ex
position. As senators and representa
tives were on their way to the capi
tol that morning they could not es
cape the enthusiasm caused by the
militia parade. Samuel S. Cox of
New York 'Sunset,' as he was fa
miliarly called and General B. F.
Butler were members of the house
of repi esentatives, and it was often
said of them that if they were joined
in favor of any measure, which was
seldom, for it was General Butler
who christened Cox 'Shoo Fly,'
they could carry it through regard
less of whether the house wanted to
pass it or not. Soon after airiving
at the capitol Mr. Cox, who had
witnessed the parade and joyfully
for he took a special delight in pa
triotic parades was asked in a gen
eral conversation if he did not think
it was time that there should be
some movement looking toward
completing the Washington monu
ment. He replied, ies, and 1 think
it should be done today.' In less
than ten minutes he had drafted a
resolution directing that the work
should be resumed and making the
necessary appropriation lor secur
ing a better foundation. General
Butler had his eais opened when
Mr. Cox sent the resolution to the
speaker s desk to be read, and on
hearing it indicated to his j. trsonal
followers that it was right and
proper This was suincient, and in
less than half an hour it was passed.
"The senate souu concurred, and
the work begun veiy shortly, though
it took some years to complete it.
It was the Washington birthday pa
rade of the District militia that did
the business, and Mr. Cox told sev
eral among them, myself included,
that be had no thought of the mon
ument until he had seen the parade
and was enthused by its influence."
