TURNED UPSIDE DOWN A Topsy Tarry Effect of the Earth quake nt Stanford University The earthquake which produced such widespread ruin in California created Bome scenes which were curious and some which even bordered on the lu dicrous One of the latter sights was in the grounds of Leland Stanford Jr fjr Ws til S1X ALL lSr jr IT ROBERT M MWADE dais in the consular service Mr Mc Wade contends that the charges against him are false and were made by persons who conspired to have him removed because he had interfered with criminal practices of which they were guilty Mr McWade also made a countercharge against Mr Peirce saying that the latter had violated the federal statutes by virtually compel ling him to make the assistant secre tary a present of a valuable tiger skin rug Mr Peirce says he did not ask for the rug or know at the time that it had been presented and he has re turned it Mr McWade was appointed consul general at Canton by President Mc Kinley in 1900 He was born in Ire land in 1830 came to this country in 1871 is the author of several books re lating to the Irish struggle for home rule and was for twenty twa years city editor of the Philadelphia Ledger HOW LAVA FLOWS CtiriouH Scenes Presented nt the Town of Torre Annnnziata When lava flows down a burning mountain like Vesuvius and invades the streets of populous towns like that of Torre Annunzlata some curious scenes are presented Venturesome photographers secured snapshots of the lava while U vas still pursuing its onward course and carrying devasta tion in its train After it had cooled and the course of the molten material WHERE A STREAM OF IiAVA STOPPED AT BOSCO TRECASE tr nad thereby been arrested photographs were also secured of places where It had broken through bridges and arch ways and stopped seemingly halfway in its work of destruction The lava flow was practically confined to the southern slopes of Mount Vesuvius At Bosco Trecase there were two streams of lava which joined and tlion flowed through the valley STATUE OP AGASSIZ ON ITS HUAD university where a statue of the great scientist Agassiz was thrown from its dignified perch above the entrance to a building and stood upon its head on the ground beneath Strangely enough the figure of Agassiz not only remained intact but continued after the earth quake to retain an upright though In verted position The head of the scien tist however was fixed in the earth as the figure stuck down In the ground as far as the shoulders With feet in air the statue furnished a grotesque ap pearance and suggested the idea that the earthquake was caused by some de mon trying to turn things upside down ROBERT M MWADE Former Consul General at Canton nnd IIIh Unnwunl Case Robert M McWade who was remov ed last autumn from the office of con sul general of the United States at Canton China figures in a curious con troversy Mr McWade Avas removed on charges accusing him of issuing fraudulent immigration certificates to Chinese bound for the

regulations some curious punishments are meted out in die English navy It is an everyday occurrence says Loudon Tit Bits to see half a dozen sailors lined up on deck facing the paint work holding their hammocks on their shoulders At first the hammock isnt heavy but aft er an hour or so it drags on ones shoul ders like lead Besides it is not at all entertaining to stare fixedly at a square foot of painted woodwork for an hour or more at a time Another punishment that Jack de spises is bailing with a spoon He is placed upon the deck with two large wooden buckets one filled with water and the other empty With a spoon lie must dip all the water from one buck et and transfer It to the other being meanwhile the butt of his comrades jests and jeers Sometimes a delinquent is made to walk slowly backward and forward along the deck nursing in his arms a six inch projectile weighing a little over 10 pounds Once a sailor who laughed at the stammering speech of his commander was made to stand up on the forebridge in full view of the ships crew and laugh for an hour and a half Spitting upon the deck of a man-of-war is strictly prohibited Cuspidors are placed at intervals along the deck and these must be used Upon some ships when a sailor is caught spitting upon the deck a small tub is strapped to his chest and he is made to wear it Anj one who chooses may use this walking receptacle The offender thus punished rarely repeats his offense A POTTERY TOWN Cliiiistechen Is Unlike Any Other Place In China For at least 900 years the town Chingtechen in China has been devot ed to the making of pottery Every thing in Chingtechen belongs to the porcelain and earthenware industry The houses are for the most part built of fragments either of old kilns or of the fire clay covers in which the porce lain is stacked during firing The riv er bank is for miles covered with a deep stratum of broken chinaware and chips of fire clay and the greater part of the town and several square miles of the surrounding country are built over or composed of a similar deposit Chingtechen is unlike anything else in China The forms the color the materials used in the buildings the at mosphere are reminiscent of the poorer parts of a civilized industrial center There are 104 large pottery kilns iu the town The greater part are in use only for a short season in the summer During this busy season the population of Chingtechen rises to about 400000 souls but of this total nearly half are laborers drawn from a wide area of country who come for the season live in rows of barracklike sheds and do not bring their families with them Visitors to Chingtechen pass along street after street where every shop is occupied by men women and children all engaged in the designing molding painting or distributing of pottery The river bank is crowded for three miles by junks either landing material and fuel or shipping the finished prod uct Mannd and Maunder Neither maund a basket nor maun der to whine or grumble is obsolete Both are still in common use in South Notts and Leicestershire at any rate The former is used only however of a particular kind of basket used for carrying butter to market The basket is nearly square in shape and has two lids opening from the middle part where the handle is and it is called the butter mawn maund Maunder is usually heard in such sentences as What are you maundering at A Northumbrian will say Hes a maun dering old fool when the man of whom he is speaking strings words to gether in a senseless sort of way some what akin to maudling London Notes and Queries The Color of the Ermine It is a popular idea that the ermine sheds its brown summer coat and that on the approach of winter a covering of snowy white fur takes Its place This was a natural conclusion as a possibility of a change in the color of the fur had not occurred to scientists Experiments iowevcr have b xn made and the brown coated ermine has been placed In a very low tempera ture Almost immediately a change was visible in the color of the fur and without shedding the creature became snowy white Smiles There are many kinds of smiles each having a distinct character Some an nounce goodness and sweetness oth ers betray sarcasm bitterness and pride some soften the countenance by their languishing tenderness others brighten by their spiritual vivacity Lavater Threats I consider it a mark of great pru dence in a man to abstain from threats or any contemptuous expressions for neither of these weaken the enemy but threats make him more cautious and the other excites his hatred and a desire to revenge himself Machiavelli Too Svrcet Mrs Beach Here is a letter from Charles Mr Beach Read It Mrs Beach reading My dearest darling est mother Mr Beach Great heav ens The
