CHEE F00, CHINA.
trim Oriental Watering Place Where the
Recent Treaty Was Signed.
:Chee-Foo, where the treaty of peace
'was signed betWeen China and J span,
and which also goes by the name of ,
Yen-Taiyis one of ‘the best known ports
in the northeastern part of China. It is
situated at the head of one of the bays ,
of the Gulf of Betchili and is in the
neighborhood of two-of the most prom- .
inent places in the recent Chino-Japan- .
ese war. It was here that‘the peace of
1876 between England and China was
signed; by which three new ports of _
entry were opened to foreign commerce.
The signing of the treaty on the 8th
of last May between the two inimical 1
brothers of.the far orient has given
Ghee—Foo a new historical importance.
From' June 8, 1850, until the Chino- .
European war, France had occupied ;
Ghee-Foo without any interference
from.foreign powers.
It is thickly populated, having one i
hundred and twenty thousand inhabi-
"tants, according to the consular re-
ports of 1891. In summer it is a fash-
ionable watering place like 'Trouville
and Brighton. It is very attractive,
with its villas with vine-enshrouded
verandas clustering on the hillsides
which overlook Semaphore Point or
dotting the plain.
tower a pretty pagoda rears its head,
crowned by its cap with upturned
wings. America and Russia send pe-
troleum oil to Ghee-Foo, England cOt- ,
tons-and metals. The great article of
export is raw silk.
In the quarter facing the sea, in a
small hotel, bearing the European
name of Beach hotel, the peace treaty
between the Chinese
plenipotentiaries was signed.
WHAT IS ELECTRICITY?
Some .of the Various Theories on the
Mysterious Current.
Well, what is it? It is scarcely possi-
ble to say. There are theories——many
of them. It is evidently something of
which we cannot take a, part; we can-
not cut a piece of it off and subject it
to analysis; nor can we pour'a little of
it into a bottle for future study and
contemplation. It is like the wind, its
effects can be measured; its force,
strength and quantity can now be, cal?
culated to a very nice degree. Still, to
liken it to the wind, it is a stupendous
power, a mighty typhoon, blowing, as
it were, without moving, two ways at
once along all parts of its path; giving
off a halo of magnetism at right angles
to that path everywhere.
a One of the nicest theories, perhaps, is ,
the one that considers electricity a
“condition” 'of atoms, brought about‘
by chemical action, as in a battery cell,
or by what might be called a severe
irritation of the magnetic halo, as in a
dynamo, and by other means, such as
heat and friction.
What this condition is is beyond us;
it may be a violent rotation, or it may
be an equally violent vibration of
atoms; probably the are light would
prove it to be a vil rail. llut as no
man has seen an: atom at any time, not
even with the most powerful micro- _
scope, it is impossible to say. Friction
in some form or other is present, as
heat is produced before burning, or de-
struction, takes place. . ‘

5 WHEN BIG SLEEVES GO.‘
—.—..
There W111 Be Many Surprises When We
See Our Friends Again.
Much interest attaches to the rumor
which comes from London that the
princess of Wales and her daughters
have been lately seen in public in
gowns with small sleeves and narrow
skirts, remarks the San Francisco Argo-
naut.
This bit of intelligence does not neces-
sarily cinch the doom of the balloon
sleeves and the letter A skirts, but it
will tend to make prudent investors
Wary of locking up much capital in
those vanities ~
Of course, the balloon sleeves must
go presently. When fashionable moth-
ers began to put them on rlittle boys’
legged nightgowns it became apparent
that the taste for them had come to be
an extravagance and could not laSt.
But it will be a shock to miss them.
Doubtless we will find our friends much
changed when we get down to their
real selves again. Some who have
grown stout will not shrink as much as
we expect, and Others who wore away
in the hard times perhaps will shrink
much more. . -
But let us have the facts at any cost,
especially as there must be material
enough in the present sleeves and skirts
to cut over into anything conceivable
and have enough left over to clothe a
child.
A Rather Tough Prelacy.
A journey of nearly seven hundred
miles through the bush was necessary
for the new bishop of Mashonaland,
South Africa, to reach the center of his
diocese, and he says: “It was a very
rough journey, with scarcely any sleep
and little food. ’ nOn Sunday afternoon,
Beside the signal-,
and Japanese .
i ' after many hours’ traveling in. choking
dust and heat, we rested for an hour at
a wayside shanty of poles and mud.
Prospectors were lounging around, and
one man had put on a clean shirt, but
all were hearty and glad to see the
bishop. I expect that I was the only
bishop in the world on that particular
Sunday, sitting aStride a plank, cutting
slices of ‘biltung’ with my pocket-
knife, and washing them down' with
pot which prospectors carry about.”
, Iron in Milk.
5 Cow’s milk is almost at' the bottom of
the list of the food substances that
contain iron.. As it‘is s0 important to
infant life, Prof. Bunge has been led
to experiment on animals to see in
what proportion iron is present in the
system at different ages. He finds that
the younger animals contain much
more iron than adults.. In a guinea pig
or rabbit one hour old, for instance,
there is more than four times as much
iron as in the same animals two and a
half months old. He infers from this
that a long-continued exclusive milk
diet is not good for babies, but should
' be supplemented by wheat prepara-
tions.
.. SHE LOVES_TIHE1JFRENCH.
That Is Why Queen Victoria Is So Popu-
lar in France.
The great popularity enjoyed by
Queen Victoria in France is due not
only to her world—recognized virtues,
both as an exemplary sovereign and an
exemplary woman, but- also to the
knowledge of her extreme fondness for
the French nation and French people
generally, says the New York Journal.
One of the secrets of the queen’s
great personal influence in European
politics—an influence ever used on the
side of peace and good will—is her
equal attachment to the two great con-
tinental nations which have so long
been rivals.
I believe we shall know some day
better than we know now how much
her majesty has done to bring about a
better understanding between France
and Germany, and so to promote the
peace of the world. .
Some idea of the burden of official
work that falls upon the queen may be
gathered from the statement that in
the course of last year her majesty
mastered the contents of no fewer than
twenty-eight thousand dispatches.
In -these democratic days we are so
accustomed to keep uppermost in our
minds the social side of the sovereign’s
duties that we are apt to forget how
heavy is her share in the actual work
of government.
Though her ministers are, of course,
responsible, no official act of theirs is
valid without her assent, which is never
given without a thorough and consci-
entious examination of the question in
hand.
But, in addition to her majesty’s
heavy state duties, there is the enor-
mous private. correspondence which her
vast and widely-spread family circle
renders necessary and which she main—
tains with the most scrupulous and un-
failing regularity.
Therevare probably few women of
the work daily performed by the inde-
fatigable queen.

HIS FATHER’S BUSINESS.
Boy Gave So Many Accounts of It That
He Was Called a‘Politlcian.
When the man who canvasses for
names for the city directory knocked
lem tenement house it was opened,
says the New York World, by a
small boy, bright eyed and ragged,
with that expression of premature
agedness on his face that makes the
children of the criminal classes look
old enough to be their own fathers.
In reply to questions the boy gave
the name of his parents. Then came a
puzzler.
“What’s yer popper’s business?” in-
quired the directory man.
“Business?”
“Yes. What does he do for a living?”
The boy laughed. “Oh,” he said, “he
steals lead pipe off roofs, and some-
times he breaks into houses. Say, yer
ain’t a. policeman, are you? Well, that’s
all right. Popper ain’t got no regular
business. Sometimes he lies along the
waterfront and robs drunken sailors
and sometimes he sandbags people. To-
day he’s trying his hand at picking
pockets on the Bowery, but I guess
he’ll get pinched, because he generally
does at that game. Don’t put him
down as a pickpocket, mister, for he’s
a regular greeny at that.”
The directory man scribbled some-
thing in a notebook and moved away.
The boy called after him curiously:
“What did yer put popper down as,
mister?” The directory man said noth-
ing, but 115d up the book, in: which
was written: '
“Jones, John, politician, 19264 Ave-
nue A,” and moved off to the next flat.

01d Eli’s Bronzed Oarsmen Off For the
» Henley Regatta.
New HAVEN..June 6.—At 7:10 p. m.
the Yale crew left for New York, where
they take the steamer Berlin for England
tooontcst for international honors at the
Henley regatta. The crew were loudly
cheered as the train rolled out of the sta-
tion. Themembers ‘cf tlie crew, their
places in the boat and their Weights are as
follows: Langford 1-oke, 168; Trcadway,
captain, No. . 17l; uongacre, No. 6, 178,
Bailey, No. 5, 175; Rodgers, No. 4, 1782
Board, No. 3, 177; Brown. No. 2, 165,
Simpson. how, 157.
Bob Cook will accompany theorew to
the other side and v'vill be with them dur-
ing their three weeks of training. If it
lies in human power to get the crew intc
winning condition. Yale students have
every confidence that Cook is the man
who can do it. Cook is highly pleased
with the crew and says he believes they
can Win. According to him, they have
had no trouble in mastering the new
stroke. The crew take two shells with
them. 5 ,
When Captain Treadway was asked
what he thought the themes of victory
were. he said:
“Whether we win or lose we will have
no excuses to make. The crew is one 01
the strongest Yale ever put on the water.
With three weeks on the other side and
Mr. Cook as our coach there is no reason
why the eight should not be as well pre-
pared as any crew has ever been for a
Harvard-Yale race. The fact that the
course will be shorter than any Yale he:
becnaccustomed to row will not palliatg
defeat. We consider our stroke the ideal
one for one mile or 'for four. We have
made no changes in our regular stroke
and in preparation, save in lessening the
long distance work. The stroke has been
somewhat higher than usual, but we on-
tcr Henley as a crew entirely representa-
tive of Yale’s ideas in regard to stroke
and training, and if we meet with defeat,
barring accident, it will be because a bet
ter crew, trained better and rowing a. bet
ter stroke, defeats us. We have strong
hopes, however, of succecss.”

case in the English courts.
was for $10,000 damages brought by Mrs.
Ida C. Sorcerson of Evergreens, N. Y.,
against Dr. Siegbert Balaban, 35 Palmet-
to street, Brooklyn. The doctor was ac-
cused of having imparted to his wife a
professional secret, which was discussed
in the village. In this case an autopsy
showed the alleged assumption was n01
based on fact.
Mrs. Sorcerson charged that the docto:
had degraded the memory of her dead
daughter, Clara Olivia Nelson. Dr. C. N. '
Barber testified that he performed the an.
topsy. Death was due to appendicitis and
general peritonitis. The charges alleged
to have been made by Dr. Balaban were
shown to be unfounded. Dr. Balaban por-
si‘sted in denying the evidence against
him. ‘ The jury was out three-quarters 01
an hour. The verdict awarded $5,000 to
Mrs. Sorccrson. Thecase will be appealed.
