There is no kissing in China. When
American ladies kiss each other they
are doing as they would have men do
unto them.
Chinese ladies compress their feet and
lei their waist-places run wild. Amer
ican ladies compress their waists sad let
their feet run wild.
Chins-men don’t eat rata, neither do
they eat soup with chop-sticks.
The cue, or pig-tail, is not the original,
national mode >of hair-drearing,. but a
mark of subjection imposed on the Chi
nese by the conquering Mantchous.
The men in. China we * r akirt*, the la
dies trousers,—but that does not at all
signify that the woman is the better man
of the two.
A man in China shakes hands with
himself, in place of his friend, when he
meets him. ? ■ •- J

China, the men to ahield ^heir faj«

There arc no old molds in, the land of
the Orient. Marriages are made by par
ental, not natural selection, and the

"The volunteer Worker and his place in

very forcibly upon the responsibility of

Legal Items of Interest la Clinch County.
The Superior Court of Clinch county
convened in Homerville on Monday
morning the 7th inst., Judge At
kinson presiding, and Solicitor General
Brantley appearing for the State. Sev
eral cases, criminal and plyil, were to be
considered and prominent lawyer* from
all over the circuit were there to care
for the interests of the contesting parties.
Waycross was most creditably repre
sented in the person* of Messrs. Wilson,
McDonald, Hitch, Sweat and Crawley.
The civil docket was first sounded and
cases taken up in the order of announce
ments. The most important matter
upon the civil side of the docket was
the determination of the boundary lines
of lots nftmber»»177, 178 and 179 in
13th district of Clinch county.
rvey of Mr. F. F. Williams, county
rveyor of Lowndes county, was offered
evidence by Judge M. L. Mershon,
representing the plaintiff, H. J. Caswell.
Mr. Leon A. Wilson theu, ou behalf ot
the defendant, Wm. Griffin, introduced
Geo. Dame, county surveyor of Clinch
county. It wxs then narrowed 1
battle between Hurvevors; and, as
trial progressed, Mr. Dame apparently
furnished the most reliable information.
Thia trial gare'birth to some very spirit
ed legal discussions between counsel. A
brief discussion of the ldw and evidence,
before the jury and a masterly charge to
them by the court, upon the rules to
govern their considerations, sent them to
the jury room, from which they soon re
turned, bringing with them a verdict for
the defendant.
A murder cose, of some six years
standing, wxs then disposed of. A ver
dict of not guilty was returned, and tbe
case of the State vs. C. G. Murray, a
former agent of the 8. E A W. Railroad,
passed into the law history of Clinch
county. The State vs. Mack Ellis, col
ored, for the murder of Adam Ballard,
colored, was taken up. The Solicitor
General made out, from the testimouy
of many witnesses, a very grave case of
murder. The jury gave most careful at-
teniion to the pointed argument of coun
sel for the defense, and after a some
what prolonged absence returned a ver
dict of guilty, with a recommendation of
imprisonment in the penitentiary for
life. This about concluded the work of
the spring term there, and, as was noted
by the court, left the Clinch docket
practically clear.
The next appointment for the court is
in Appling and then, in succession,
Wayne, Pierqe and Ware. Here our
docket is, as it always is, crowded; but
an unpleasant surprise may await every
wroug-doer in Ware, who presumes that,
in his or her instance^ continuance will
be granted.
