A BRIGHT CHINESE WOMAN.
Recently Graduated [rum Ann 'Arbor Sim
Goes Home to Practice. .
Ida Kahn, of China, who recently
graduated from Ann Arbor University,
came to this country about six years
ago to study medicine and now she has
returned to her native town, Kin Ki-
ang on the Yangste Riv-er. '
Her Countrymen doubtless consider
her a new woman of the most advanc—
ed type, and at first she will probably
"- have more time on her_hand-s than pa-
tients on her list.
Ida Kahn, M. D., is imbued with the
missionary spirit. Converted to Chris-
she hopes to be the means of convert-
ing others.
She was much liked,at the Ann Ar-
bor University, where she took the full
medical course. She spoke English
and successfully passed the examina-
tions necessary for entrance to the
class of medicine and surgery—an ex-
amination which required an English
essay, correct in spelling, punctuation,
capital letters, grammar and para-
graphing; mathematics ,(arithmetic,
algebra and geometry); physics, zoolo-
gy, history and Latin.
The medical course required inces-
sant- and hard work. There were rec-
itations and lectures in oesteology,
embryology and histology; operative,
minor. and general surgery, practical
pathology, internal medicine and derc
matology. ‘ -
Ida. Kahn not only gave her atten-
tion to these studies, but also went in
for bacteriology,' electro-therapeutics

strife made him a Cuban Ehe-alrlt and
soul. Aft-er peace Gomez took part in-
several of the wars in Latin America,
and when Mac-co brought up the pres-.
ent revolution Gomez was offered the
command of the army of liberation and
accept-ed it. He has been eminently
successful in that capacity ever since
he entered rilhe field. ‘The old general
has steadfastly clung to the “indepefl-
dence or death” idea and hates auton-

THE SAILOR’S TAILOR.
{or the \Vell Set up Tar.
The skill displayed by the sailors on
board our naval vessels in making
their own clothes, even to their caps,
surprises the average landsman, who
has a vague idea that these things are
supplied by government tailors. Ready
made uniforms are supplied to the r..—
cruits, but as soon as the men get their
sea legs and begin to have some pride
in their appearance they, get their uni—
and much better fitting clothes they
are. It- is a well recognized fact that
no tailor ashore can compete withthese
sailor tailors in making bluejackel
suits. With his ditty box and his
small hand sewing machine a ship’s
tailor, after his regular duties are over.
can make extra money to spend ashore.
or suit with all its trimmings, and the
man who employs him draws his cloth
from the'ship’s Stores. For making a
cap, including the fancy embroiderlng
about'the top and band, the charge is
$1.50, and a well set up tar wouldn’t
think of wearing a cap bought ashore
if he had money and pride. The cap
makers in a. ship’s crew are experts in
various styles of embroidering. These
tailors and cap makers aboard ship
are classed usually with the thrifty
men, and the amount of money they
can make and save in a three years'
cruise sometimes amounts to $1,500 or
more, and there is a tradition in the
navy that a quartermaster was paid
off from the cruiser San Francisco sev-
eral years ago after a three years’
cruise with $3,000.——New York Sun.
A LITTLE ARCHDUCHESS’ FUNERAL
It, “'as Almost Gorgeous Enough for a
Reigning: Sovereign.
Fathetic and picturesque was the fu-
neral of the little Arcxiduch-ess Natalie
of Hungary, who, rumtr sa;c‘:, was' to
have been betrothed to the young king
of Spain. Natalie was a little girl in
short frocks, but she was a Hapsburg,
and almost as much pomp and cere~
mony attended her funeral Iasiif she
had been a reigning sovereign. The
coffin, covered with crimson velvet,
was enclosed in an outer coffin of ‘sll—
ver. The hearse was drawn by six
cream white horses and was preceded
by a Spanish rider in gorgeous uni-
form. Then came .the little maiden's
archducal crown, on its crimson velvet
cushion. The ch-amberzal‘ns of the
Pressburg archducal court, with their
keysof office, the firs: and second mas—
ters of ceremonies, the mistress of cer-
emonies and her lady in waiting, and
...c archduchess's own suite rode in
splendid coaches flanked by body
guards, and mounted and foot halber—
diers, with lighted lanterns. The holy
lay in state in the church one‘morning,
Lens of thousands of persons, court oili-
cials, children, peasants with flowers,
and the emperor of Austria himself,
coming for a farewell glimpse of the
little archduchess. At sunset the body
was borne with pump and splendor to
the imperial vault of the Capuchin
monks, and was there received by the
lord cardinal and the archbishop. And
all this time in the churcli above the
vault, six little archduc‘ne-sses, sisters
3f Natalie, sobbed a dirge for the dead.

“Has-my daughter been profiting by
your instructions in art?” inquired Mr.
Blykins. , f ,‘
“Yes,” answered the teacher.- “I was
a little discouraged at first. ButI can“

teries of batteries, induction coils,
electrodes and other appliances, and
made experiments in electro-physics
and electro-physiology.
The charming Oriental garb was on-
ly worn by the maiden from the Flow-
ery Kingdom upon high days and, hol-
idays; upon ordinary occasions she
dressed like an American, 3. style
which she liked so well that she in-
tends to introduce some reforms in
dress among her countrywomen.'—-New

A Young Soldier’s Grit.
The morning after the battle of York
injured as to require amputation.
Among them, relates the Detroit Free
Press, was a young musician who had
received a musket ball in the knee. As
was usual in such cases, preparations
Were being made to lash him to the ta-
ble. The sufferer sat watching the ar-
rangements, and finally said:
“Now doctor, what would you be
at?”
“My lad, I am going to take off your
leg, and it is necessary you should be
lashed down.” '
“I’ll consent to no such thing. You
may pluck the heartifrom my bosom,
but you’ll not confine me. Is'there a
fiddle in camp? If so bring it to
me}? '-
A violin was brought to him, and,
after tuning it, he said: -
“Now, doctor, begin.” ,
And he- played until the operation,
which took forty minutes, was coul-~
pleted, without missing a note or mov-
ing a muscle.
An Ireland Temperance Worker.
of the W. C. T. U. of Iceland, and Grand
Vice Templar of the Independent 0r-
der of Good Templars in this country.
Miss Johannsdottir is described as one
her country, who has more of a vbice
in affairs of her own government than
her American sisters have in theirs.
Her ancestors, it is said, left Ireland
four centuries ago and settled in Ice-
land, where they have been promi-
nently identified with 'the history of
the country ever since.
Miss Johannsdottir came to America
last summer to become more proficient
in English before attending the world’s
W. C. T. U. Convention. In six
weeks she had so mastered the lan-
' guage that she could make a clever
speech in English and none were more
sought after than she at the gatherings
in Toronto and Buffalo.——Philadelphia
Ledger.
Something New for Fish Lines.
A curious industry has sprung up in
Spain since the decline of silk culture
there in 'the production of what is
known as silkwdrm gut for fishing
lines. The grub is fed on mulberry
leaves, as usual in silk culture; but be-
fore it begins to spin—that is, in May
and June—it is killed by immersion in
vinegar. The substance, which would
have formed the cocoon is then drawn
out from its body in the form of a
thick silken thread, which is treated
with chemicals and "afterward dried.
These threads are made up in bundles
of 100, and the Spanishpeasants trav-
el with them along the shores of the
Mediterranean as far as France. The
best quality of thread is round, the
flat form being inferior and due to the
unhealthiness of the worm. The chief
seat’of'this industry is Murcia.——Sci-
entific American. .
A New Year’s Dinner for Horses-'-
The inmates of the Home of Rest
for Horses, at Acton, in England, had
a gorgeous bill of fare on New Year’s
Day. It included apples, carrots,
bread and sugar, and the old-timers
went for the table d’hote like two
year—olds. Each horse had ten apples,
ten pounds of carrots, and four pounds
of bread, while those who had special
friends fared even'better. The oldest
boarder at the Home is Betsy, who
confesses to forty—one.
