GEORGIA Chinese Super*tition There are towers in Shanghai where men watch for, fires. When one is discovered the fire-hell Is rung. When the old custom house was built a large clock was placed in its tower, For some weeks after this clock be gan to strike the hours there were very few if any fires. The Chinese said it was because the fire-god thought that every time the clock struck there was a fire an nounced, so tie could rest without helping. All these tilings seem ridic ulous to us but are very real to the Chinese. New York’* Early Day* An article published in the Chris tian Advocate says: “At the begin ning of the Nineteenth century the •commercial metropolis of the United States’ occupied only the lower end of Manhattan Island, what is now ‘up town’ being still made up of spacious farms and country estates, Including the little village of Harlem. The ac tual measurements of the city proper are given ns three miles In length (from the Battery to Fourteenth street), one and a half miles in width and eight miles in circumference.” Man and Fish A fish’s fear of man Is born, n Cnr negie institute’s bulletin suggests, by the fact that he approaches from above, a direction from which the fish has learned to expect nttnek by birds or other enemies. When a man walk 9 on the ocean floor in diver’s dress, fish large and small display the greatest curiosity. Even the fierce barracuda, after nosing the diver In friendly and inquisitive fashion, must be pushed out of the wny and goes without show ing undue resentment. —Snu Francisco Chronicle.
