He was trying to cross the track ahead of the train, and ■was frilled instantly. B*cjfr a Terror of China. From the New York Herald. All Chinamen believe in society, not that 60ciety that is banded together tor social amusement, but the kind that is formed for protection or aggression. In fact, China is the hotbed of eooietles. and there are more of them than can be enumerated by the missionaries. Perhaps the oldest of these societies is that formed by the beggars It is as powerful almost as that of the Boxers, and it numbers thousands in its ranks, as any one can testify who has visited the principal cities of the Celestial Empire. The head of the society is called “King of the Beggars,” and he rules as if he were a protentate. He is recognized by the government, and his orders are obeyed implicitly by all his subjects, the mem bers of the society. The seat of his government is at Pekin. Before its gates are thousands of the members of his society, and they are a re pulsive looking crowd. They fear no man save their king, and are as likely to clutch your coat with scaly hands as not. The only way you can treat with them is to buy them off. They prey upon their own race as well as upon foreigners, and onoof their meth ods resembles that of the famed brigands of Italy. I accompanied a missionary party to Shanghai several years ago, and. with that city as my headquarters, visited several of the outlying towns. The beg gars there were as thick a* bees. While I was on an excursion to Fu Chang, a small town about fourteeen mile* from Shanghai, the hoarde of beg gars descended upon the place It wtis fairly besieged. Beggars sat in every doorway, nor would they move, and it was Impossible to escape them For sev eral days this siege was continued, until finally the principal merchants of the place signified their willingness to pay. The king of the horde arrived the next day. a sum equal to $1,300 was paid over to him, and by nightfall there wasn’t a f*ign of a beggar. They had gone to an other town to levy tribute. Book# could be written of the beggars and their methods, but perhans their worst offense is at the graveyards. They frequently refuse to allow bodies fo he buried until they are paid, and I heard that when the mourners ore obstinate th* beggars actually jump into the grave, whore they remain until they obtain the price demanded. It Will *ot Freese. From the London International Scientist. With a thermotnetcr that trifles witty/a temperature of 92 degrees in the shade, it i* good to muse on a new discovery of a liquid that will not freeze. Thl* stufT Is needed, among others, for certain forms of brake*, especially those used for pieces of artillery. For this pur pose glycerine has been used extensively, but is somewhat costly, and alcohol even more so. These liquids may now* be replaced to advar.toge by a solution of chloride of cal cium of 28 per cent, strength. Its cost be ing almost negligible. The solution will support a temperature of —32 degrees cen tigrade without apparent change, and does not attack metals. A GOOD SORT OF WAR LETTER. The Rooky Boer Langnagf, a Patch Lass an Teacher, and a Drmattc “Curtain.” From the London News. It is a bad thing to travel In a country during war time even when you are fa miliar with its language, but it is far worse when you know only enough of the native tongue to make yourself misunder stood, says the Orange River Colony cor respondent. I have managed to get my self into some gorgeously picturesque sit uations on this account, and more than once have vowed to master the Boer dia lect or wreck my talking apparatus in the attempt. It is not an easy language to learn. It is very like their kopjes*, steep, rough, rocky, and disjointed; and. like the kopjes, you can’t take k by storm, but must climb steadily and with patience, and make sure of one step before you venture on the next. It is a superb lan guage to use when one is driving bullocks, or blacks; the first sentence seems to roll off the lip 6 like a malediction, and the second chops off short like the bark of a toy terrier. I should ask for no finer form of speech on earth if I wanted to curse mine enemy, but how on earth they man age lo make love with it passes my com prehension. Still, I thought it might come in handy if only to frighten Australian horses with, and kept constantly on the lookout for a chance to learn; and verily my chance came unto me in due season. I didn't learn the dialect, but I learned something else, which may prove equally useful in later life. We had pitched camp for a week, in order to allow the ever-dallying provision convoys to catch up to us; so, obtaining permission from headquarters, I saddled up and rode out to do a little scouting on my own account, for I have long since learned that it’s no use hanging around camp if you want to know anything about the real life of the folk who dwell in the land. About six miles from our lines I ran against a dainty little farmhouse cuddled up against the slope of a shrub-covered kopje. On one side of the dwelling a trel liswork of vines* broke the wind, and on the other a long, double row of orange trees beautified the scene. Tall, graceful popular trees whisped in the wind at both front and rear, while a pretty flower gar den, fragrant with flowers, spread far away in front of substantial dwelling. I was admiring these things from my horse’s back when it suddenly dawned upon me that I had possibly played the im becile in straying so far from camp. But it was *oo late to hang back. If the far mer-folk were friendly, I was in luck; for the inside of such a dwelling could not be ill-supplied with creature comforts. If, however, they were hostile, I was at their mercy. I had no desire to match my pony’s pace against the flight of a Mauser bullet; so humming a song and thinking of a psalm I rode forward as if certain of a kindly welcome. An elderly Boer with a kindly face rnp-t me at the door and gave me the time of day with all civility; a nig ger lad took hold of my bridle, and I swung myself out of the saddle just in time to receive a civil greeting from the farmer’s wife, just such a farmer’s* wife as one is apt to see in any part of Eng land, healthy, wholesome, substantial, well-fed, and well-clothed. They invited me inside, and there their four daughters introduced themselves to me. They all talked English as well as I could, and be fore I had been there twenty seconds I had arrived at the conclusion that I should never get a better chance to study the language of the people of our foes, and determined to sacrifice myself upon the flinty shrine of duty. Three of the maid ens were plain-faced, good, honest-looking girls, but the fourth had a face like a young preacher’s first public prayer—a face that many a man would risk his life for. So much of my wbol* career has been passed amid rhe roughfr ard more rugee 1 scenes of life that a d*'script ion cf dainty womanhood comes awkwardly from me. But I have read so much about the ugli ihss and clumsiness of the Boer women in British journals that I should like to try and de-cribe this daughter of the ve dt, a though rn’y a fanners I do not know if she should be called short or ta.ll, but her cheek could have nestled comfortably on the shoulder of a fair man. I do not know how much hair she had, but thtre was enough of it to make a fellow feel as if it did not matter a rap if half the earth was bald. It was not red. nor yellow; it was Ike honey kissed by sunshine. She had the sort of forehead which one never seas on the face of a fool —Nature’s signboard for an ?mp© ium for brains. Her eye* wer,* lorge, brown, and fearless. not bold, nor yet waveiing. Her mouth was perfect, not one of those sepulchres which disfigure some feminine faces, not childishly small like a bud bursting into bloom, but a strong, true mouth, large enough for a prayer to slip through, hut not b g enough to swear with. Her waist would just about fill the crook of a strong man's arm. and make h m feel that there was no room for anything else under heaven. The arch of her bust was like the curve on a wave as it breaks on the heach in the bay. net the stiff lath and plaster models one is ant to see ■walking round the stree s of cities. Her hands were shapely, brown, and strong, a lit tle by wind and weither; not toy hands, hut hands that could spank a baby, or help a husband back to paths of recti tude wheft a 1 the world had damned him past redemption. A Lesson in Dnteli. So she looked when I saw’ her, and I said unto my soul: Verily, it is a good thing for a man to know something of his eremies* language, and I made up my mind to learn. If was flfih evening after that, and I had regieterel my fifth visit to the farm, when an event hefe’l which put an end to my studies in Dutch for • time. be ng. I had dined with the farmer, rhe plain sisters had made music, for me. they had lifted up their voice* in song also, for I was an honored gues*. having been erabled to do s*)me litt’e de=*d of kindness through the favor of our courteous g-meral to a re ative of the la dies who was a prisoner in our line- They had given me blankets and rugs f or the poor beggar, and the general had handed them to the man. The nicht was a beau tiful one. so. lighting a cigar. I iambled down toward the quarter-m'le-long ave nue cf orange visit, for our troops were on the move at dawn. As I sauntered forward I heard the rustle of a woman's skirts amid the bushes on my right, and looking in that direction I paw he navy-blue dresr and the red-gold hair of the lady who had been teaching me Dutch. I had not many seconds to look at her. but. brief as the time was. I had long enough to notice that one hard held the blue s’rlrts switch 'd up so tha about a foot of white petti coat was displayed. I also noticed that she was holding toward the orange walk, which I had long since learned was known in the family as “the lovers’ *wa’k.” She did not lock in my direction, did net turn toward rre at all, but, like many another fool. I was pufTed up in my felly. What harm is there in It. I if I take my last lesson In Dutch in the shade of the orange trees. Tossing my cigar away. I saunt<red after the fly ing figure, out of the flower garden, over the field, into the shady walk. Tle Denouement. I meandered like a he-goat through a gap in a hedge; I walked about fifty yard*, and *aw no one, heard no one. Then all at once I found myself looking right in the face of a big, hairy savage, who wore a tweed coat and a bandolier full of cartridge*. In hi* hand* he car ried a handy Ilftle Mauser carbine. "Well. Mr. Spy,” said the haJry Indi vidual, ’’you are my prisoner.” I tried to smile, but somehow the springs of my fare had got out of order and would not work “Whal did you want WH-aklng af ter me for, you lienatly Englishman,” snarled the man with the gun. “I could have shot you last night, and the night before, and the night before that. If I IjUad liked, but I did not want to bring THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, AUGUST 11, 1966. Painful Periods M 0 are overcome by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetab/e Compound. Fifty thousand happy women testify to this In grateful letters to Mrs > Pinkham. Menstruation Is a severe strain on a wo man's vitality If It is painful something is wrong which Lydia E. Pirkham’s Vegetable Compound will promptly set right; H excessive or Irregular write to Mrs. Pfnkham, Lynn, Mass., for advice. Evidence abounds that Mrs. Pinkham’s advios and medicine have for many years been helping women to be strong, he other advice is so un varyingly accurate, ?c other medicine has such a record of cure. trouble on this farm. What did you want to hunt me for?” I found my tongue for a moment then. “Hunt you be d——d; didn’t know such a chap ex isted.” He lowered his carbine an inch or two. “Then what the devil are you doing in the lovers’ walk?” “What are you doing here?” I blurted. We stared at each other like two grass fed calves in the s'tarligh*, arid I edged a foot or two away from the gun. Just then I heard the patter of girlish feet on the gravel behind me. and. turning my head, saw one of the plain sisters hurrying toward us. and almost at the same second the reddish-gold head of the “beauty,” the head of the girl who had been teaching me Dutch, passed from a patch of shadow into the streak of star light, where the hairy young giant was standing fondling his gun. I sow her clasp his arm, heard her hurriedly whis per something in Dutch, which caused the giant to grin as if half his head ached to port company with the other half. The beauty pointed toward me anrl fhe plain sister who had come to a half beside me. The plain girl put her hand kindly on my shou’der, and whispered: "Don’t you think it’s too chilly out here?” Chilly was no name for it. I w r as as cold as Klondyke The slgiht of that car bine in the starlight had taken all the warmth out of the atmosphere, as far as I was concerned. I turned to go, when n little hand touched mine. The lady who had teaching me Dutch was at my side. “Before you gentlemen leave,” she said, “I want you both to make a prom ise. You are enemies now 1 ; some day, when the w'a.r is over, you may he friends. But promise not to hurt each other by talking of this meeting. CXto had no bus iness to come. Father had forbidden him until the trouble ended with the British.” “I came out of love for you,” grunted the man with the gun. “And you came out of fondness for me.” murmured the plain girl, her voice shak ing with laughter that was almost chok ing her. I muttered the biggest lie I had pver parted witn. The hairy individual rested his gun against a tree, stepped forward, and lifting his slouch hat to the plain girl, said, " for your sake. I promise.” I lifted my helmet to fhe “beauty” and said something similar. A few' minutes later, as I was buckling my girths, I heard him galloping off southward to join Olivier’s commando. As I swung up into the saddle, the plain sister slipped away, and the “beauty” lifted her hand in farewell. As our hand met. she said, “Why did you come to the ‘lovers* w'alk’?” “To get a last lesson in Dutch,” I said, with a sheepish grin. “Well,” she answered, “I hope you’ll remember your lerson.” and I heard the two of them laughing as I galloped out on the veldt. A. O. HALES. Tlie Chinese PoMofflee. From the London Express. This is an attractive title, fully justified by the fact that there Is no G. P. O. in China! We Westerners are so much ac customed to the rat-tat of the postman, and the constant rounds of rhe blue-liv eried figure. “On Her Majesty’s Service," that we find it hard to realize that no such institution exists in such a highly civilized country as China. Enterprising mandarins may. and sometimes do, offer prizes for essays on “How to Establish a Chinese Imperial Pos4oftice,” but fur ther than this the matter has not gon^. When a Chinaman wishes to post a let ter o-r a parcel, he does not drop it into a slit in tho wall surmounted by a ca balistic V. R. He carries i to a “letter shop,” opens it, and displays its contents to tbe shop keeper, so that they may be valued This done, the package is re fastened. and the shop keeper, putting upon it his “chop,” or seal, undertakes the task of forwarding It to the addres see. In process of time the packed ar rives at its destination, and If the “chop” is broken the keeper of the letter shop has to pay damages. This, to tell the fruh, he generally does w’ith on admira ble promptitude that sets an example to our own leisurely department. This, system of private enterprise pro vides notb'ng of the nature of a penny postage rate. The payment for rhe trans mission of letters and parcels is regulated by two circumstances: (1) The money value of the pocket; (2) the length of the journey which it has to take. A without inclosures can be sen# a short distance very cheaply, but this litt’e charge is quickly multiplied to a great one if valuables are Inclosed, or if the destination of the letrer is hundreds in stead of tens of miles away. The letter carriers generally travel on foot at n rapid pace and. in order to protect them *rom the depredations of highway robbers, a pertain sum of blnckmaq Is annually paid to the chief robber bands of each district Tn return. thee knlgMs of the greenwood take the letter carriers under their pro tection. and woe to any one who molests the* mall. The government does not make use of the letter shop system, hi* all Imperial edicts and dispatches are carried from city to city and province to province by a complicated system of mounted couriers. In case of emergency dispatches can be carried as much as 250 miles a day. so tha* a government dispatch telling of the fate of the European legations could have traveled from Pekin to Tien Tsin In less than half * Cvrr. >o Pay.
