Beveral beggars in Pcra own a largo
amount of property. Ono well known
man has houses worth (en thousand
Uras, and yet is to be seen begging in
filthy rags. A poor governess, who was
very charitable, used to give him a pi
astres twico a week. One day eIio missed
a lira (pound) and thought sho must
have given it to the beggar by mistake.
Ho had gono homo for tho day, so sho
followed him to his houso on the Tax
imc. Ho received her graciously, look
ing liko a pasha at least in his mognill
cent robes. "I never liko to lose a good
client," ho said, and sent for his bag of
takings; "If there is a lira hero wo
shall find it." Suro enough, tho lira
was there. "Tako it," ho continued,
and tho poor girl, full of thanks, was
hurrying away when tho beggar stopped
her. "Wait a moment; you haven't
given mc tho piastre."

A Chinese Funeral. O
A well-conducted Chinese funeral Is
tho most gorgeous sight in Asia. At
thn front of tho funeral procession
walk the noisy, muslclcss musicians
Then come men bearing the insignia
of the dignity of tho dead, If ho had
any. Next come more men, carrying
figures of animals, idols, umbrellas and
blue and white streamers. After them
come men carrying pans of perfume.
Just beforo tho coflln walk bonzes,
Chinese priests. Over the coflln n can
opy is usually carried. The casket Is
borno by about a score of men. Im
mediately behind tho coflln walk tho
children of tho deceased. The eldest
sou comes first. Ho is dressed in can
vas, nnd leans heavily tipon a stout
slick. He is supposed to bo too ex
hausted by grief and fasting to wnlk
without the aid of the staff. Tho other
children nnd relatives follow this chief
mourner. They are clothed in white
linen gaiments. The women are car
ried In chnirs. They sob and wail at
Intervals and In unison. When tho
burying place Is reached tho bonzes be
gin chanting a mass for the dead, nnd
tho coflln Is put into tho tomb. A largo
oblong white marble table Is placed be
fore tho tomb. On the middle of it is
set a censer and two vaseB and two
candlesticks, all of aB exquislto work
manship as possible. Then they havo
a paper cremation. Papen figures of
frten, horses, garments and n score of
other things are burned. They are
supposed to undergo a material resur
rection, and to be useful to the dead In
the Chinese heaven. The tomb Is seal
ed up or closed, and an entertainment
concludes the ceremony at the grave.
I'rlcntR of tho lllmalnyns.
This decidedly effective group was
photographed near Darjeellng. The
holy men know nothing of Drury Lane
pantomime, though their highly origi
nal costumes irresistibly suggest that
gorgeous pageant. They are tho priests
who minister unto the hardy hill-men.
Fortunntely for their wearers, tho
masks are not for every-day use; this
is evidenced by the more ordinary
head-gear held by tho pastor on tho
extreme right. These dignitaries havo,
as it were, merely assumed for the oc
casion their episcopal robes.
Ill a Chinese House.
Tho windows of Chinese houses be
longing to the wealthy classes are
made of oiled paper or semi-transparent
oyBtor shell, Artistically wrought in
a variety of fantastic patterns; as may
be imagined, these glvo very little
light and no ventilation, consequently
tho house during tho day Is dark and
dull, but at night when the number
less picturesque lanterns are lighted,
the scene is most beautiful. Round
lanterns hang from the center and
ether points of tho ceiling; some with
flat backs are fastened to tho wall,
and others aro set upright on tables
and stands. The prettiest and most
expensive aro made of white Bilk or
gauze, delicately painted in a variety
of colors, red the symbol of joy pre
dominating. There are octagonal lan
terns fancifully painted, with red Bilk
tasselr, hanging from each corner; me
chanically contrived lanterns, which
the heat sets in motion, beautifully
carved horn lanterns, nnd Eome of bas
ket work and bamboo. The rooms aro
separated one from another by carved
wooden scroll work, which is most or
namental and gives a very rich and
handsome appearance to the interior.
This carving Is sometimes gilded and
Eometlmesf polished; again tho wood Is
left In a state of nature and given only
a coating of wax. The Chinese are as
fond as tho French of mirrors; large
and small ones are scattered about and
cheval glasses placed in positions to
give an idea of grandeur and extent.
Tho doors of a Celestial homo, Instead
of following a monotonously rectangu
lar form, like those of the western
world, are sometimes round or leaf
shaped, or seml-clrcular apertures.
Tho round doors are regarded as a
symbol of 'the sun. Another doorway
will perhaps resemble a flower, illumi
nated by a window so constructed as
to enhance the conceit, octangular
doors aro used in the gardens which
separate one court from another, and
again doors shaped like fans, leaves,
scrolls and fruit are seen. Unlike the
, Japanese, the Chinese havo been nc-
customed to tho use of chairs for cen
turies. According to western Ideas,
the Chinese chairs are models of dis
comfort, for they are made of a pat
tern which prevailed in England in
the days of Queen Elizabeth or Queen
Anne; tall, straight of back, and in
ordinately angular. The most comfort
able chair to be found has an adjust
able back, and is filled with reverslblo
cushions, but this is a modern inven
tion. When visitors are expected, or
on tho celebration of an anniversary,
strips of red cloth are thrown over tho
low couches and squares of tho same
material cover the seats'of'tho chairs.
I Y Not el Currency.
In an interesting article In Cassicr's
Magazine for. October, by F. S. Pren
tiss, he glveB this account of a curious
currency in tiBe In Mongolia nnd Si
beria. "The tea business," writes Mr.
Prentiss, "seemed to bo in tho hands
of the Russians. They have hero (at
Foo Choo, China) two largo factories
for making tea-cakes. Tho tea is
ground fine, nlmost to a powder, and
then, by powerful hydraulic presses, Is
forced Into blocks that are so hard thai
It is Impossible to break them without
a blow with a hammer. TheEe aro sent
north through ttio great Chinese wall
into Mongolia and Siberia, and pass
current as money. In many localities
it Is the only currency used. As th?
' blocks leave Foo Choo they weigh the
same to nn ounce, hut ns tho money
circulates around, howovcr, pieces aro
chopped off to replenish the tea-pots,
and tho blocks dcproclato in valuo la
proportion to tho chunks taken."
THE LOSS FROM BAD BALLOTS
The Necessity for Vuliiff tho Oreatcst
I'rccnutlon lit Voting;.
Tho "Red Rook," or official legisla
tive manual for 1890, compiled and
published by Octl, Palmer, secretary of
etate, pursuant to law, contains tables
of tho returns of election of November,
1805, which mako a partial, and only a
partial exhibit of alleccd "dcfcctlvo"
ballots thrown out by tho poll can
vassers. Tho total number of clectorfl
thus reported disfranchised in the stato
as a consequence of tho confusion and
confounding of tho blanket ballot, or
"Australian" system of voting, reaches
tho enormous number of r8,936! And
that probably Is not half the total! It
Is a well-known fnct that In somo of
tho districts of this city and county
the inspectors at many of the polls
construed the law as not requiring them
to make roport of "defective" ballots.
Of tho HO election districts of tho coun
ty no returns of such ballots nro made
from ninety-one, as tho tobies of tho,
"Red Book" show. And yot G70 Aro ac
knowledged. Chautauqua county,
which contains tho cities of Dunkirk
and Jamestown, mako no return. Che- .
mung, containing tho city of Elmlra, .
reports 2; Hamilton, none; Jefferson, '
with tho city of Watcrtown, only 70;
Kings, containing all the city of Brook
lyn, tho second county nnd city of tho
state, whero it is known that the num
ber of defective ballots rejected was
relatively greater than in Now York,
none. Tho aggregate vote of Kings,
practically a part of New York, return
ed a3 counted, Is 168,007. The aggre
gate vote of Now York returned ns
counted is 261,540. Yet New York ac
knowledges 10,265 ballots aB "defec
tive, etc.," and rejected. By rule of
proportion Kings county must have had
0,620. Orange county, containing tho
cltlC3 of Newburg nnd Mlddletown,
makes no report. Orleans, with num
erous largo villages, only 5; Richmond,
only 3; Schenectady, with tho city of
Schenectady, none; Ulster, with tho city
of Kingston, none; Westchester, with
tho cities of Yonkcrs and Mt. Vernon,
which hnve the Myers ballot machino,
reports one defective nnd rejected vote,
which must have been at the poll of
ono of tho towns using the blanket bal
lot. Troublo With n Cash Register.
There were three in ono party and
two in the other. They were standing
before the whltc-aproned dispenser of
refreshments, and ono of tho three in- j
vlted the entire party to havo some-
thing. The dispenser dealt out tho or
der of the three, took the dollar of
fered In payment and handed back 35
cents In change. The other two, stand
ing a Bhort distance away, wero not
served, as there was a mistake on tho
part of the enshier. The bill amounted
to less than a quarter, according to tho
refreshments served tho three. Tho
host examined his coin and then looked
surprised and grieved.
"I gave you a dollar," ho said.
"Was It a dollar? How much change
did 1 give you?"
"Thirty-five cents."
"Well, I will have to wait until
somebody buys I don't daro to open
tho register, ns there's no false balance
on it. Every time I open it It means
a purchase charged to mc. Sorry, but
we'll have to wait."
Tho man to whom the change was
coming stood by nnd waited until a
cash purchase was mado boforo ho
could get his money. Ho wa3 tho only
one in tho party who did not enjoy
the 'situation. Ho remarked gloomily
that he never had much use for caih
registers anyway. Chicago Chronicle.
Tho Ways of ul Ant.
If has long been recognized that the
ant "is'aA'cry intelligent Insect, and
leads a ""very" complicated social life.
There aro classes among them pluto
crats, laborers and criminals. The au
thor of a recent work on entomology
potca the curious habit of one species
of the ant of "turning some of their
fellows Into animated honey pots." In
stead of placing honey In a comb as
the bees do, tho ant selects a certain
number of workers, and disgorges the
honoy obtained from tho eucalypti, on
which it is deposited by coccldao and
other Insects, into the throats of their
victims. The process being continu
ally repeated, causes the stomachs of
theso workers to bo distended to an
enormous size. This extraordinary
habit was first discovered in the caso
of certain ants in Mexico, nnd subse
quently shown to prevail In Colorado.
It has been found to exist in Australia
also, and Mr Frogart describes and
figures theso nntB of the genus cam
ponotus that pursuo this remarkable
practice. The ants containing honey

Alligators were formerly one of the
chief animal life tenants of Red River
nnd the bayous of Louisiana, where, be
foro steamboat navigation came to in
terrupt them, they could be seen by
hundreds huddled together on tho
hanks or massed on the floating or sta
tionary logs especially of Red River
waking tho solitudes of the forest
with their biiil-llko bellowing. Their
length was generally between eight
and twelve feet, although they some
times grew to bo twenty foot long.
Their hides wore onco used extensively
for the making of shorn, but tho leath

TWO VIEWS ON PENSIONS.

"Thcro may bo fair differences of
opinion ns to tho extent and conditions
of pension rcltof, hut there Is no room
for doubt ns to pensions," writes
ex-President Harrison in tho Ladles'
Homo Journal "This Country of

for wnr service implies, at least, relief
in caso of wounds or sickness for tho
soldier, and that tho public will care
for his widow and minor children.
