Tbe Street Gamblers of China.
Ono never falling courco of imu»
ment v,-cs watching the street gam
blers. You boo a man, generally the
most innocent looking of Chinomon,
if one Chinaman can bo
said to look
in any way different from another,
unless in size, walking along with
what looks liko a rather largo um
brella. He stops in-what he thinks to
bo a convenient place, always near a
corner, sticks this machine on the
ground, which in some ingenious
way liecomes a gambling table,
marked into squares and spots. In an
instant he is surrounded by a crowd
of all ages, and the game goes merrily
Suddenly a cry of polico goes up
and in an instant man and table havo
mysteriously disappeared and the
- crowd has scattered. I believe the law
is strict against gambling, but the po
lice seem about as efficient to stop and
prevent it os are the police or our
country. I never could get to under
stand the game, but it seems to be run
on the good old principle that the odds
should ho in favor of the bank, ns the
bank seemed always to win. After
watching tho game for several days, I
came to the conclusion that tho person
who raised the cry of polico must be a
confederate, as it was always done
when the stakes were quite large, that
is, for that game, as only pieces of
copper were placed on tho hoard, and
in nis anxiety to get away tho man
would not wait to hand back to tho
players their money, but would disap
pear. money, table, and all.—Samuel
F. Farrar in Chicago Journal.
Tlio Detectives of Berlin.
The detectives of Berlin are the
nearest approach in stolidity to those
of London. There is really very little
crime in the German empire, on ac
count of tho extraordinary sentences
that are imposed and the strict mili
tary discipline that prevails through
out the empire, ana which has its
S liest development in Berlin. On
i account the most experienced and
capable detectives are taken out of tho
criminal service as rapidly, ns possible,
and promoted t:> tho official depart
ment.
Then- duties consist solely in watch
ing socialism and guarding eminent
Germans from bombs and dynamite.
Bismarck, for instance, never travels
without tho protection of at least two
of tho crack officers of the detective
corps, and, when he takes a ride in the
park, or even ventures on a short
official visit to or.o of the departments,
a man precedes und follows Iran. The
vigilance is severe and thorough. Tho
emperor, I may remark in passing, is
never guarded by detectives, but his
personal staff hover about him in a
fashion that renders any interference
from Nihilists or Socialists well nigh
impossible. As to tho skill of the Ger
man detectives, it cannot, I think, be
compared for a moment with that of
the police of Paris or New York.—New
York Cor. Globe-Democrat.
Peculiar Idea About Eellclon.
A student deeply versed in ecclesias
tical matters recently advanced a very
peculiar idea while conversing with a
friend. He said that the established
religion of a country owed its princi
pal doctrines less to faith than to tho
conditions of its climate and surround
ings. He cited the beautiful religion
of tho natives of India, who would not
eat anything that had onco lived, be
cause, while all could take away life,
only One could give it. Ho argued
that a religious belief like that could
only have its origin hi an intensely
hot climate like that of India, where
animal food is.not necessary to sus
tain life. Among tho Laplanders such
a religion could never obtain, because
it was absolutely necessary for the
inhabitants of so high a latitude to
keep the warmth of the body up to a
certain beat. Nothing but animal fat
could do that.—New York Sun.
A Ropo Walker's Coolness.
if I myself do not feel nervous, I
am afraid tho many persons I have
carried on my back across tho ropo
have felt a trifle perturbed, save when
they havo been professional assistants.
In reality there is nothing in the
world for them to bo afraid of. All
they havo to do is to sit perfectly still,
refrain from clutching mo too tightly
around tho neck and leave tho rest to
me. When I am canwing any one
over for tho first time, I chat to him
continuously on any indifferent sub
jects I can think about, and try in this
manner to relievo his anxiety, and I
always caution him against looking
downward when in mid air. Some
how, though, ho never seems quite
happy, and I always detect a gasp of
relief when tho end of tho rope and
tho platform are reached. More than
onco l lie victim has devoutly ex
claimed, “Never again I”—J. B. Blon-
din in Lippincott’s.

Dissipation of Vital Energy-
Truly did Emerson designate dissi
pation as tho greatest evil in life. Ho
did not mean dissipation in tho narrow
and common souse of excess of drink
ing. Ho meant dissipation of all sorts
—tho dissipation of vital energy in
tho pursuit of trivial objects, social
dissipation, waste of timo,^ wasto of
monev, waste in general. Social dis
sipation is ono of tho most harmful
forms of dissipation,' becauso it is so
insidious, apparently so innocent. Wo
aro <'ommandcd to lovo our neighbors,
but wo aro not commanded to call on
them two or three times a week. Thq
mount of timo consumed in superflu
ous nnd purposeless social intereoureo
in this world is something positively
appalling.-New York Commercial
