What EiifTorimr freemantly results from a mother’* Ignorance; or more froauentiy from n mother's neglect to properly instruct her daughter I Tradition says “woman must suffer,” and young women arc so taught, There is a little truth and a great deal of exaggeration In this.

SUGGESTS EXTRADITION TREATY WITH UNITED STATES. 13 AIMING AT THE HIGHBINDERS. - Washington officials, However, See Seri ou« liBiruI Objuotionii to Such a Treaty and It May Bo ICefuseit. A Washington special says: The Chinese government, through its min ister, Mr. IVn Ting Fang, has broached to the authorities here the willingness of China to negotiate an extradition treaty applicable to all criminals, but intended in particular to reach the Highbinders 1 118 fraterDlt y has spread , terror , through the far west and the Chinese government finally determined to take cognizance of tho subject, astheagi . ........ much against ».<• ~»-o<*<*?**.»• tho law-abiding Chi as nese and against the Chinese govern mnnt itself as it did against the par ** os * 0 Recr et crimes. It was, therefore, represented to tho officials bore that as tho Highbinders had proved such a difficult class for the I° ca l police authorities in this country ^'“al with, China would assume the burden of detection and punishment, W a " extradition treaty could be nego tinted. The purpose, it was suggested, ' vafi to have China assume all the costs of apprehending and transporting the guilty parties. While willing to get rid of Chftlese Htghbindtrs and all other Chinese criminals, Uie authorities at Washing ton foresaw serious legal objections to such a treaty. The methods of trial a » ( l punishment in China are very summary. The proposal, therefore, was open to tho objection that this country was surrendering persons domiciled within its borders to a for eign country for harsh and unusual prosecution and punishment. Little doubt was entertained that if China once secured possession of the High binders short work would be made of tbom, owing to the prejudice they have brought upon tho ready government, China was to overcome this objection ns far as possiblo by provid for a fuJI hpnring on (rial in this coun try before the parties were turned over p () Gie Chinese officials for deportation h ome. This, however, did not fully meet tho legal objections agaitiRt tho proposition. Moreover, it was be ]ieved the senate, to whom such a treaty wouI(1 Lave to 1)e referred for ratification, would notact favorably upon >it, and that it would stir I]p animosities and agitation on the Chinese question in general, rather than accomplish any special good in the direction wished for. The Chinese authorities have not, therefore, gone further than to broach the subject, to the Washington officials and learn how such a treaty would bo viewed, although they stand ready at a ny time to assume the burden of deal ing wUh the Highbinders and other Chinose criminals, if a naturalization treaty should give them jurisdiction over the offenders, GOV.

A detachment of thirty men of the Florida naval milita arrived Friday morning and went aboard the convert yaclit Wasp, which has been assigned as the practice ship of the Florida THE EXPRESS TAX. Some Notable Canes Which Have Been 'Recently Decided By the Court*. Soon after the passage of the war revenue act the railroad commission of Georgia issued an order that the ' tax on express packages should be paid by the companies and not by Hh ‘pp. er *-. , | ibis order applies, „ of , course, only I to shipments from’ point to point-in this state, and Southern Express com pany acquiesced without resistance or appeal. I There have, however, been several ' cases before Federal courts involving the question of the intent of the law ns to which party should pay the tax on express packages, and it is inter esting to note how they have been 1 de cided. The most noticable of these cases was that of William Crawford, com plainant, vs. L. Hubbell, as treasurer j the Adams Express company, de fendant. It was argued elaborately in the United States circuit court for the southern district of New York. The motion before the court was for a pre limhlar y injunction to prevent the ssssta that the war revenue act does not pro l.ibit the carrier from requiring the party tendering the goods to pay tho carrier the increased cost which has been imposed by act of congress. A similar decision was rendered in the case of the United States against the Southern Express company in the United States district court for the westesn district of North Carolina. A few days ago a case was brought in the United States district court for the southern district of California against tho Wells, Fargo & Co.’sex press. In this case the company’s agent refused to issue a receipt for a package tendered for shipment unless the shipper would pay the stamp. Suit was brought against the company to collect the $50 penalty provided in the war revenue act. The court in de ciding this case said: “It will he seen from even a cur sory rending of this clause that the duty which it imposed upon the ex press company is to issue a bill of la ding only where goods are accepted for transportation or for each ship ment for carriage and transportation. The complaint not only fails to allege that the company accepted for ship ment the package in question, but the implication is to the contrary. What ever may be the liability of an express company to a shipper on account of its refusal to accept goods offered for car riage and transportation, such refusal is not a violation of the revenue law. The penalty of said law is incurred only where a company Accepts goods so offered and then refuses to issue for them a bill of lading.”—Atlanta Jour nal.

The returns of the census for France which was taken in March, 1897, have now been published and compared with the statistics of the previous cen sus, taken six years before. A yeat ago the number of people In France was 38,228.909, nnd at the 1891 census it was 38,095,150, so that In the six years the population of France had only increased 133,819 persons, And even this trifling increase is more ap parent than real, for it has taken place entirely in the large towns, nnd is due to the Influx of foreigners, such as Belgians and Italians, who are to be found in increasing numbers among the urban populations of France.
