New York,Oct. 12. —Wong Chin
F„o, the Americanized China m o
gives t his expl matiou of the orij
of the China Japan war:
“Woman is ar the {bottom of i
ail.
“It was so in Corea, so it is n
China. In both instances they
stand solid for the Chinamen. Th
Empr-‘SB of Corea sided ip with th*
Chinamen against, her own hus
band and tiie Japanese pind tin
American missionaries, The Em
press of China sided in with L
Hung Chang and the real of th*
native Princes against her own son
the present Emperor, and the en
tire clique of’rbe Manchu Pnnce.-
and their Inks of wild savages
and the lattir have temporarily
won, and Li Hung Chang,the oni'
Chinaman who e\e* held an im
portant post under tho present for
eing dynasty, has been banish* d
to Pawting Foo,the capital of Chi
li.
“The intrigue was a long one.l
started alMjoat immediarely idler
Li Hung Chang was mad* centi
dencial adviser to the throue.-.b-m•
1870. The conspirators were near
y all Manchus. T hey assert the
it was mt ouiy unjust to them,but
dangerous to the dynasty,to give ;
Chinaman so much power among
ms own people ; but torso many
5 ears the brave Empress had been
able to defend Jher wise counselor
and has kept Li safely in his high
position, principally becausi t e
Viceroy did not give them rn
cause for complaint.
The long-looked-for excuse final
ly came. It came with the recent
reverses in 'the Corean campaign,
and Li Hung Chang was charged
with incompetency. The conspira
tors argued that no Chinaman i.-
capable of being a conqeror. Sueli
genius is only born with the Man-
Chit race, and King Ching Wong,
or Prince Kung, a Mancini, was
duly installed in Li Hung Chang’s
place.
“I he Chinese throughout the
Empire are justly indignant Jover
the matter. They had hoped that
through the long years of intimat<
intercourse between the Tartars
and the Chinese all race feeling
was obliterated, and especially
when political offices and positions
of trust were to be equally divided
between the conqueror and tin
conquered throuh the civil service
examinations and meritorious pro
motions as proclaimed some year
ago.
“Grumblings are already com
mon, not only among the Chinese
officials and literati, of which Li
Hung Chang is a prominent mem
ber, but among members of inllu
ential secret societies, such as the
Yee Hings and Au Chun Whey

HAM AND EGGS.
For the past week or so an old
negro woman has attracted consid
erhle attention to herself by going
up and down the streets, half sing
ing. half croning religeous songs.
She occasionally stops and ex
lortulates with colored people on
tile infillri. ss of their way. She is
perfectly harmless, but is simply
razv upon the subject ot religion.
She is known as “Aunt Meeley,’’
and outside of relig oustopics is as
sane as any one. I happen to know
a very curious story ot the vexed
ace problem, th** whole of which
linges upon the extreme views
,f the gospel that this poor old
lemented creature takes. If
you’ll bide wi’ me a bit, I’ll tell it
you, on itting, of course, the names
if the parties mostly interested, as
one of them, especially, is well
known over this county.
In a prosperous community in
Floyd county lives a yvell to do
arnier. He has many acres of
rood land that teems with a rich
harvest. Besides his farm, he has a
arge store, and sells everything
imaginable to the country people
hat live near him. For miles
around this farmer’s home, are
vast coaling regions, where the
timber is cut down and burned to
charcoal.
Many men make a living for
themselves and families by work
ing in these coalings. Some years
ago a family, containing several
members, moved into this .coun
try from Ohio. The father, son.
and a brother of the good wife
gained a fair living by getting em
ployment burning charcoal. Now
all of this new family were known
to be strict Christians, and took a
great interest in all church mat
ters. The wife very frequently
prayed in public, and the family
■stood very high in the estimation
if the people of the community.
Noyv on the place of the young
farmer first mentioned, there wrs
a small building which wan used
every Sunday by the community
for holding a Sunday school , as
the nearest church yvas some miles
away. The northern lady yvas a
teacher in the school, and all of
her family were regular attendants.
IKAva’s soniT 'months ago yyhen
this old “Aunt Meeley” became
such a fanatic’upon religious sub
jects, and as she lived in that
neighborhood, she commenced go
ing from house to house preaching
and praying. The people humored
the old darky i:i her vagaries, as
she had always borne an excellent
reputation. So at last it came to
the ears of the community that
this northern family had taken
this old negro woman in their
home and allowed her to eat at the
same table with them. They were
even more horrified to learn, and
from reliable source, that they
had even allowed this old negro to
sleep in the snowy white beds,
and, alas! that she had been the
bedfellow of the good wife.
The gathering storm of popular
indignation against such flagrant
>pposition to the social usage of
the southerners, vent in open war
fare in the little Sunday School
one beautiful sun-shining Sunday
.norning. There was a strained,
lefiant h.ok upon the faces of the
taiwart men as they gather around
lie frontdoor. The women and
hildren had a frightened look on
their faces as they hurried into
the little building. There was an
ominous, threatening feeling in
:he very atmosphere that told of
*>ining trouble.
The family from Ohio came in
and sat in their accustomed places.
The farmer named in the begin
ning of this story, took the good
wife aside and asked if certain ru
mors yvere true concerning their in
timocey with “aunt Meeley.” She
replied that such was true. “Then
said Mr. Blank,” I must ask in the
name of myself and all of the
members ot this school, I must re
quest that you resign as teacher in
this Sunday school.
Then pandemonum turned loose.
The woman jumped up and com
menced to scream, and at last her
excitement became so great that
s he fainted. Her husband and
brother raged and stormed, but the
cooi young farmer remained firm
and insisted upon his decree. The
matter was argued in the school
and hot and bitter words followed
each other in quick succession.
But for one man's calmness and
unfai ing courage in the dispute
it might have resulted in blood,
shed, as the northern family were
furious. The frightened people sat
and listened, but refused to come
to the assistance of the man who
insisted upon their own wishes be
ing carried out. At last he gained
the victory, and the crest-fallen
people who had condescended to
putthemselves on an equality with
negroes, beat alias y retreat.
As a consequence of all this,
which happened last summer, the
Ohioans are entirely ostracised by
their neighbors, but they are still
regular attendants of the churches
near by. This article founded on
actual facts, and if it should ever
become necessary I can name ev
ery person connected with the af
fair and prove my story.
How would it do to ask the
commissioners to change the ten
thousand dollars issue of fifty dol
lars into one and two dollars bond.
Would it not do better for local
currency? Give us your opinion.

“Unde Jerry”
As the ex-Secretary of Agriculture, lat£ Hon*
Jeremiah Rusk, was affectionately styled by
tho«r knew him best, was a highly
* eflu ed ian. It would be senseless to say
that «as not simply because he
never went through college. He is one of
that bong list of self-educated men of which
our country iy so justly proud. Soother
land can boast of so honored a list of
self-made men. Deprived of the educational
advantages which th' 1 more favored enjoy,
such men make the most of their
opportunities, and by their
HJgh=Mnnded Spirit
Os independence and Indomitable
perseverance climb to the highest rounds of
.the ladder of success and fame,
Ex-Setretary Rusk did not inherit his widt
knowledge of agriculture and practical
farming. He acquired it by studying natur*
and reading the proper books.
There is not a boy in Georgia today, having
the ordinary allowance of intellect, who may
not make himself felt as much in the world as
did Mr. Rusk.
Good Books
Are the best friends that any boy can havts
Through •♦hem he may become the dally
companion of the greatest minds that the
world has ever known. All that their wide
experience has taught them they are ready
to tell to the bov who reads.
In the ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITANNICA
the greatest scholars of this generation
have not only given their best thoughts, but
have carefully gathered, classified and
condensed the best which the great men of
all ages had to offer to the world.
When ex-Secretary Rusk was a boy H
would have cost him
A Small Forttwie
To purchase the ENCYCLOPEDIA
BRITANNICA, and I.ad he been able to
purchase it, lie would indeed have possessed 1
the greatest reference library then known to
man. but it would have Been meager compared
with the great 1 ith edition, revised and
brought up to date, as it is In the new edit on
now sold at introductory prices to subscriber*
of THE CONSTITUTION.
We say that every intelligent boy living w
Georgia today has a better opportunity t»
become a great man than did the Hon.
Jeremiah Rusk, for any boy can earn and
save ten cents a day, and that will buy t •
best library in print.
