This rainbow is caused by re flected light on a mist atmosphere. The profes sor showed how to produce phenomenon by artificial meant. At the same time it waa shown how, when the air is composite, as, for Instance, where water spray la mixed with paraffine oil spray, a still more wonder ful rainbow results, such as is to be seen at almost all times in western China, whither the people flock from far and near to wltnesswhat they call ???The Glory oi Buddha." The humane philanthropists who work them selves into a frenzy over the condition ot slaves in Africa would do well to tum their attention to China. Chinese slaves are the descendants of rebels captured in war, or the victims of kidnappers. In the treatment of slaves, instances of fiendish bar barity are happily rare. Males, however, fare bet ter than females. They are usually employed agricultural laborers or as house hold servants. They cannot sue, must wear a certain costume, cannot carry umbrellas, aud must always stand in the presence of their masters. Every muter Is bound by law to procure his slave a wife before he is thirty years of age, anrfno sale is ever made involving the separation of married slaves.. Girl children, when not drowned at their birth, are frequently sold into slavery. Many of these female slaves are treated with great bruUllty. They are frequently sold for immoral purposes. These practices go on In the British colony at Hong Kong, aud nothing is done. The wretched ness is either unnoticed or winked at. Correspondents of the London papers, writing from the seat of war, speak of .the Egyptian troops in the strongest terms of disparagement. In every encounter the Arabs show not only the profoundest contempt for the Egyptians, but clearly let it be seen tnat they regard themselves as invincible, It is a common thing to see one man Attack score of Egyptian infantry, and a mounted Arab has been seen to dash single handed at a troop of cavalry. The indomitable courage and dash of the followers of the false prophet make them almost irresistable. It is natural that the Egjrplians should be timorous. Crushed, as they have been for centuries by a series of insolent task-masters, unablo to count u their own their lives, their fortunes or their honor, dragged to the barracks and parade ground weeping and in chains, what else but inefficiency and cowardice could-bs expected?

No fewer than 30,010 women mako a living A correspondent of the Weycross Reporter warns I |n Paris by the production of artificial flowers, and In Africa the English have beoa compelled to utilize tho camel for the transportation of army supplies. Camels are not capable of tho hard work required from mules and human beings; they arc not equal to greet emergencies, but they are the beat that can be hod in inch a country aa Africa. The camel is a tricky beast. It groans when loaded grunts when relieved of lu burden, and whether standing or sitting, working or in repose, appears to be suffering untold tortnres. Whether going up or down hill, this hypocritical beast complains. Going up, it says. Is btd aa bad can be, but going down is worse. So tho OrienUl proverb says that when moving up hill it curses its parenu, and when going down hill it curses It* Maker. The blood-thirsty revolutionists in New York who support the new periodical called "The Dyn amite Monthly" proposo to make short work of Mr. Gladstone, and everything English. The Fe nians who accept the doctrines of "The Dynamite Monthly" are not in favor of any half way meas ures. They not only out-Herod Herod, but actually make Richelieu Robinson dwin into a timorous and truckling trimmer in comparison. These large-minded des peradoes claim that they could send two men to England any day, each with a bomb in hla pocket, that would be lufflclent to level the house of par liament and Windsor castle. At somo of their recent meetings the suggestive hint was thrown ontthat It might become necessary to use these bombs in New York in order to shako up the millionaires, tho railroad men and the monopolists gener ally. On^ of tho doubtful glories one???s lfpi, or they would havo been too quiet for the music and danced quite out of tune, were, per haps, confined to the country side, but they could easily become popular these days, were it not for Mrs. Grundy. Dancing is not a matter of festivity all the time. The tragidles of ballrooms would fill volume*. _ Admirers of organs and monkeys will be glad to learn that the supply of rotary music for the ap proaching season is likely to be fully equal to the demand. The popular tune of the year will be "Sweet Violet*." This tune of "Sweet Violet*" will be stuffed into every organ that goes into the country. "The Love of the Shamrock" and '*The Old Rustic Bridge by the Mill" will also be very popular airs. A "Home, Sweet Home" boom Is ex pected. The "Nine O???clock March" and "We Never Speak as we Pan By" will be among the stock tunes. Every organ will have a couple of waltzes, one polka, a gallop, a jig, and several ballads. Skbgiant Bates is no longer a peace commis sioner. He is in favor of going to war. Your gen uine dead beat invariably finds something uncon genial in our sweet sunny clime. Thr flood, it seems, haa resulted in stocking the Ohio river with gold fish. The gold fish have been swept into the river from tho back ponds. The idea that these fish are not flue food is a mistake. The gold orfe Is as flue a food fish as there is in the world. The gold orfe is pre-emlucntly the aristo cratic game fish of the world.
