V' 7 *. SB 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.
