"We stated our case, and then McKlnley, assuming an official tone, ordered General Wheeler to report to me at Pittsburg on April 2 for further orders.

LEGAL PROVERBS OF CHINESE They Appear te Have Oae t Fit Kvery rata and la Spare. There Is no surer test of the real feel ings of a people than their proverbial say ings, those "gems which on the stretched forefinger of all Time sparkle forever." That China Is no exception to this rule might have been supposed even If we had no dlreet proof. Proverbial expressions are very common in China. Dr. Arthur Smith says that "common talk," the near est approach to "proverb" In Chinese, Is literally in the mouth of everyone, from the emperor upon his throne to the woman grinding at the mill." Native proverbs relating to legal affairs divide themselves roughly Into three classes first, , those more or less common to all people, and dealing with that "once bitten twice shy" sort of wisdom which leads a man to put up with evils rather than go to law. Such, for example, are the following: If one family has a lawsuit ten fsmill are Involved In calamity. If but on word of Information against a mat get Into th court, nine bullock can not drag It out again. Let householder avoid litigation, for onoe go to law and there I nothing but trouble. Win your lawsuit and lose your money. Instances of this kind might be multi plied. But we must pass on to the second class those referring specially to the mao darlns; and here It may be said that though th majority of th proverbial lay ing are not complimentary, there . are a few to bear witness to the good that a good man may do even In an official ca paclty, while others give pointed advice g "Never beat If you must fine, if you do, all fine decline." Most, however, a is natural, deal with the seamy side. The following are a few specimens: Ho punishment on the bench, no law be low tt. Deceive, but don't Insult a mandarin. Men's hearts are, like Iron, and the rule of the mandarine like a furnace. Krea an boneat Chlh-fulmay, during th three year' term ef office, save ten my riad snow white tale of silver.

For Male. J by Shermsn McConnell Drug Co. A visit to a fashion factory, where some thing like a. hundred and sixty thousand patterns are turned out In a day, gives food for thought on the Intricacies of mod ern dress. The making of there psper pat terns has come In the past twenty-five years to be a mighty biyOnese. and the In fluence of the tissue models of fashion has spread so universally that It Is felt In the tiniest country village In the remotest parts of the country. The corner store in every small town! has Its counter where fashion patterns may be had. and to trios benighted creatures beyond the reach of a corner store there Is the farm magaalne or the county weekly, with Its fsshlon pic tures and coupons, through which th read ers may reach the headquarters of style and order the newest shirt waist or the latest skirt, thus becoming, by following the directions, a fine lady of fashion. The big city dailies and the little, country weeklies, almost everything In the way of a publication In these days and times, has Its fashion designs and patterns, so that really there Isn't the least possible excuse for any woman not being well adorned, hatty and neat. A small minority of women scattered over the country get their styles first hand from fashionable modistes, who Import them direct from Paris, or make pretense to, but for that vast majority of women who are their own modistes, In part' or wholly, the paper patterns Issued by va rlous large concerns with headquarters chiefly here In New Tork, set the standard of fashion. They are the fashions of the French modiste tempered and modified to suit more general use. To see how these patterns are created and manufactured, going behind the scenes of the fashion fac tory. Is an interesting thing. There are several of these factories In New Tork some that furnish the pictures and pat terns for the papers and rriagaxlnes; others that feed thepattem stores dotted all over the country, and a few combining both ends of the business. Or. Spring street. New Tork City, stands a splendid monument to women's fashions In a thirteen-story building fashion are planned, approved and Issued In practical pattern form to the number of 160.U00 day In a busy season such ail this on the threshold of spring! Just as In any busl resa where the question of dress enters there are two rush seasons in the pattern factory early spring and early fall. Just now there are being hewn out by the hundred patterns that will mold the styles for thousands of women, children and even men. For even the lords of creation are not above the sway of the paper pattern. It's true, few of them like to confess it, but many a man smile more complacently on the world because of the smooth-lying bosom of his wife-mado shirt. Of thus driven to acts of desperation by the ill fitting neckband we will say nothing. Freaeh Women Wear American Mylee These pattern penetrate not only Into the waste places of America, but are Issued In great numbers for the French, German and Spanish people.. It seems odd that French women, the molder of fashion, should be wearing American styles; but such Is the case, for the sal of the pat terns issued here In the New Tork factory and shipped abroad is enormous and Is growing all the time. While American merchants are sending buyers to France to bring back the fashions, so American factories are sending patterns to Franc for the French people te copy. Not only j do they buy our patterns, but they read fashion magasines puousnea nere n America. One company, in addition to the publications It Issues here In this court try, puts practically the same matter pub lished here every month Into magazines published in German, in French and In Spanish, and ships them from here to the countries speaking those languages. In France, especially, the American magazine ha a larger circulation than almost any French fashion magazine. Some of '.he material used In the American publication Is changed In the foreign publications, es pecially the fiction matter, to suit the tastes of the different nationalities; but the fashion matter remains almost Intact. Hew Patterna Are Made. The paper pattern begins Its being, of course, with a design, and these designs come from various sources, but chiefly from the corps of regularly employed de signers who are engaged all the time In finding new Ideas that will be of practical value. There are a number of these de signers In New York, and some scattered In foreign center to catch fresh hints there. Some of their designs are original, some are copied from models seen In shop or caught sight of on the street, perhaps. A suggestion taken from this and another from that and the pattern is planned. Models are often subml.ted from the out side, and if thought worth while are ac cepted. After the pattern has been ap proved a copy of the gown, skirt, waist or whatever It happens to be, is made up on a living model and adjusted until It Is found thoroughly practical. It Is then taken to pieces and the first pattern Is cut of heavy cardboard paper. The various sixes are then computed, which is no small problem In Itself. When that has been attended to, and the original pattern tested, found satisfactory and marked with guiding directions, tt Is taken to the cutting room, where tne patterns are struck off. There 600 girls and twenty eight men are constantly at work supply Ing the demands for patterns that stream In from all parts of the world. All the cutting Is done by hand to Insure exact ness, and the utmost care has to be ex ercised to get every notch and every dot In just the exact place, else the dress will go awry and complaints will begin pouring In. Th heavy pattern Is laid down on th big tables that stretch through th long room and th worker bend over them, quickly outlining with pencils, or cutting with (harp knives along the sides of th original pattern, th knives going through a thickness of some 0 sheets of tissue paper at once. There are Instruments to cut the round holes, and machines to prick the letters of directions Into the paper. The different parts of the same pattern are l.iid on long .sticks, something like these that papers are filed on. gnd they are all put together ready to be sent to the folding department. Kin Thensead Eight Ha ad red Rises. Along the walls of tlte cutting depart ment .hang th various heavy patterns, representing th stock In trade, some four. Imu hundred different style In all. and 1.80 sir?. The parts art strung together on heavy twine, and hang there like dum mle ef fashion, to be used for a brief period and discarded. Th life of th long est lived Is two years, and most of them pas under th kolf of execution after ttghteen months; other after a much briefer period. Some of these duremle are gieat belle, and favorites. Frequently on Is so sought after that the no girls, rut- :ing all day long, cannot supply th de manna for . Other are the well flowers f fashion, appealing only to the few, and soon fsding Into hopeless oMIvloo. In the folding department, where the pat terns gt after being cut. there Is another small army of girls at work. The various parts of a pattern are put before them Just as they com from the cutting department. With trained swiftness they gather up the different P"rt snd with the Bid of metftl folders gather th tissue pieces Into the re quired else. After the folding 'here is the Inhellng snd the final wrapplt.g to lie dona before the pattern Is ready to be offered for sale. The whole process Is gone hroiigh with great quickness. Sometimes rush demand comes In from the order department of the factory at 1 o'clock and by I In the afternoon .the stock of pat- erns is ready and out on the delivery wagon. i From the worksrrop of this one factory between tn.O0ri,OOO and So.nno.OOO patterns are issued a year, enough, some mathematically Inclined person calculated, to literally cover the continent a number of times. If spread Out. In the various departments of the build ing, the literary, the printing department and all, thero are between 2,000 and -J.OOO workers employed, all busied with it he task of oiling the great machinery of fashion.' In the smaller factories where patterns are furnished to the papers and magasines the plan of the establishments Is much the me as In the larger plant: at least the modus operandi Is. The patterns, planned for this purpose, above all things, must be simple, and must be practical. They have to be thoroughly tested befor they are sent out. The designer must have a new design ready each day, so as to have a 'fresh fash- Ion greet the readers of the paper every afternoon or every morning. To do thi keeps her wits and her fingers busy. She has to be constantly on the outlook for new Ideas to use in her work. From the desire a model Is made up on dressmakers forms, usually, though for the children's clothes the little people themselves are brought In frequently to try on. Then the artist sketches the model. In the same way as In the larger factory, the patterns nre struck off. From the artlxt's sketch line drawings and half-tone mats are made, the half-tones for the magasines and the line drawings for the newspapers. Each week seven of these mats, with accompanying descriptions, nro sent out to the papers the concern furnishes designs to.. . . The orders for the patterns all come through the paper, so that the pattern company comes little In contact with Its customers. Occasionally, however, letters trickle In from patrons not in touch with publications or from soma person wishing to come direct to headquarters with de mands or complaints. Home of those let ters are curious specimens, such as one re ceived recently by a well-known concern from a woman asking advice on how to "shorten a child." The young woman In charge of the correspondence . was unmar ried, and the question puzzled- her. She thought It over carefully, trying not to call In outside help, but Anally bad to sub mit It to the office force. A practical married man solved the question quickly. The woman meant how to put the baby In short clothes. The Information was duly given. A design plainly marked "One-piece Apron" was among those sent out by this same company, and shortly after an indig nant letter came front a patron. All the pattern had not been sent to her: there was only one piece of it, and unless money were refunded at once she would circulate rumors about the pattern company among all her friends. A careful letter wa writ ten In answer, telling the owner, of the pattern to read the directions on the out side.

FATALITIES OJFJHE RAILROAD Extended Roll ef Victims Methods to Prevent Present Great Mortality. The modern car of Juggernaut Is th railway. locomotive, which every year slays Its tbousandar-nay, Its tens of thousands In th Vnlted States. During the last year 8,7S perwins were killed on the Iron roads of this country and S5.4M were Injured. Think of It! A total of S9.264 persons killed and Injured on the railroads' of' ihe l?nlted States In a Single twelvemonth. In the bloody Crimean conflict the British lost a.OOO In slain and wounded hardly more than a third of h number killed, maimed and mangled on our railways dur ing th last year. At the battle of Sedan, which sealed the fate of the Second Em pire In France, the' losses on both sides were much less than the killed anl wounded on the rail In thi country last year. Wellington won Waterloo and Mead Gettysburg with losses of 23,185 and 23,008, respectively, and the total loss or. both sides at Shlloh In the two days' mur derous fight did not reach 24.000. Railroads in foreign countries Inflict no such wholesale slaughter: They have ac cidents, but comparatively few of them, and with no loss of life and limb compara ble to that suffered In the United State. Why Is this so? Mainly because the rail ways are compelled to adopt safety con- trlvanoes and other precautions for the pro tection of passengers and employes. For one thing, the railroads of the I'nlted States ought- to be compelled to adopt a standard car car, that Is to say. which Is standard In strength, weight and capacity. , The Interstate Commerce com mission is f the opinion that this precau tion alone would save more than' half of (be lives now lost by disastrous collisions. The fact Is that oars can be made accident-proof to a great extent. Indeed, the vehicles which we call parlor cars corre spond In a measure to this description. Statistics carefully compiled prove that of two passengers who board g train together, he who enters a "palace" coach has only one chance of getting hurt before his jour ney's end against thirty-six chances for his feUow-Deaaenger who takes one of the common coaches. Thus It would appear that the best possible accident Insurance when traveling la a parlor car seat. v At the same time, under present condi tions, parlor cars are a cause of great loss of lire end limb.' In paae of accident they smash and telescope the lighter snd weaker coaches. What, then, I th moral? It I (Imply that all the car on a given train should be of the same weight and strength. For safety It Is not necessary that they should be very heavy; the weight of parlor cars Is Isrgely In their ornamental work. And theyheed not cost much more than ordinary cars. The chief victims of tlie railway Jugger. naut are not ti.e people who ride, but the men who attend to the business of carry ing them and their merchandise. Last year one In every ten trainmen In the Vnited i.ates (this term Including en g'reers, firemen, conductor and brakemen) wa Injured. During the sam period one trainman In every 133 wa killed. Think of It In a single twelvemonth! On the other hund, only one passenger wa klllej for every 1.883.Tuf carried, and one Injured for every 17.244. The average passenger travela 1M&.Z73 miles before he Is Injured, and he goes 6T.tT2.;"s3 miles before he I kllleJ.'

At the meeting of the American Public Health association, representing the I'nlted States, Canada. Mexico' and Cubit, held In this city recently, considerable time wss given up to the discussion of th matter of ventilation and sanitation of trains. The matter of tho vitiated and germ laden air in trains, or the strong drafts when windows or ventilators are opened to correct this, was much dwelt upon and the fact that as yet ho good system of car ventilation had been hit upon was much deplored. Yet while the health experts discussed this matter. Just such a system as they seemed to desire had already been devised and proven effective by exhaustive tests. The plaint of the American Public Health association merely voiced the cry which has been going up for years and years In relation to street car and railroad train ventilation, but the new device referred to seem to have effectually settled the diffi culty and, a problem which for years rail road men huve said could not be sur mounted. Practically speaking, this new device is but the application to cars of the cold-air box principle of th common house furnace, but when applied to a moving railroad trnln or street car. Its effectiveness Is way be yond the wildest dreams of the originator of that familiar idea. ' Louis C. Lanphear of Boston , is the In ventor of the system, which he devised some years ago and has been perfecting since. He has been a traveling salesman for over a quarter of a. century and has put up with a much of railroad train ven tilation defects as most ordinary mortal. His system Is nothing more or leas than a small conduit running along either side of the monitor top to the car, the ventila tors In tho monitor opening into this con duit. At either end of the conduit are two openings, the first of these being on the outside nf the conduit and placed a trifle more than a foot from the end. 8wlvellng from this opening is a slat or deflector, which allows tho air to enter the opening as the car is In motion and to pass through tile second opening at the extreme end of the conduit. Tho lids to these open ings are controlled by levers operated from the car vestibule. When the car Is in motion the forward openings In the conduits are kept closed and those In the rear end of the conduit are opened .more or less In accordance with the speed at which the car Is traveling. This allows the current of air deflected by the swlvellng slat or deflector to pass through the extreme end of the conduit, creating suction ' which draws all the . vitiated air from the interior of tho car up arid .through th ventilators opening Into- the conduit. and tills bad sir Is shot out the end open ing. ;' , ' To replace the .bad air whioh he has drawn oft from the car with good fresh osone, tbe igventor has placed a email air register at the end of the car. and this al lows a flow of air to run between the outer and Inner shells of the car structure and through a pipe passing beneath the radia tors. Directly under each radiator the air pipe Is perforated so that the cold air In entering the car must pass , through th hot' radiators and thus become warmed be fore being distributed about the car. That is all there Is to the system, aud It Is the very, simplicity of the Idea which In sures Its success. The supply of fresh air entering-the car Is-regulated by a valve and Is under perfect control by the car crew at all times. By this system, which Mr. Lan'phear has Invented, the air In the car Is kept fresh and wholesome at all times, and this Is ac complished without drafts. It Is a well known principle that . fresh air ran be heated more readily than vitiated air, and It Is said that this Is the reason why with the Inphear system Installed In a street car the latter' can be heated with an ex penditure of 60 per cent leas, electricity than Is at present needed. Two nvin can apply the system to any street car Inside of ft single day and at a cost the Inventor claims, not exceeding zisHoeton Glob.
