China's Funny Plea.
China furnishes umustmei.t
to the world by demanding that 1
in case Kus^ia nuii Japan como 1
to terms of peace "no provision i
nflectiue China" not approved
beforehand by China herself t
"will bo recognized valid." i
'1 lie identical note addressed ?
by the thiiK'sn government in- 1
forming tho neutral powers that 1
Japan and Russia havo boon
officially notified to this effect
has contributed to the gavety of
nations.
Tho powers are regarding
China's demand very much as a
crowd of big bovs regard a small
one's demand for the apple they
havo taken from him and fought
for among themselves.
Chiua's notice may have somewhat
staggered the St. Petersburg
and Tokio diplomats, but
assuredly to the fair-minded
American it can hardly seem
astouishing or presumptuous.
Chinese territory has been
made, without China's consent,
tho theater of a mighty war ?
Manchuria, belonging to China,
was one of the primary issues in
the controversy. Russia never
formally claimed territorial
rights in Manchuria, and even
after she broke her evacuation
promise she continued to assure
the world that she would rctiro
in duo time. Port Arthur and
Ilainy site held under a lease
and the Mancliurian railway she
had constructed under a contract,
but beyond these privileges
she knew and admitted
that she bad no title or right in
Chinese territory.
Now that peace is to he considered
China asks only that she
be consulted regarding tin future
of hor own territory, Manchuria.
Amusing, isn't it ?
When two mou discuss the
fato of a third man's real estate
or poeketbook, it is excruciatingly
funny that the third man
insists upon having something
to say?eh ?
What China asks is simply
thi6 : "Whateveryou do, don't
uudertako to dispose of my property
aud interests without consulting
me." To common sonse
this is a reasonable idea.
But tlio joke lies iu the fact
that China should seom to expect
the powers to givo her reasonable
treatmont.
Tor years tho powers have
been grabbing Cnineso territory
without regard for right or decency
and restrained only by
their jealousy and fear of one
another. They have taken her
best ports, broken down her
trade regulations and refrain
from partitioning and apportioning
among themselves her whole
domain only bocauso they cannot
agree upon a division.
The rich joke of China's plea
lies in tho fact that poor heathen
China should seem to expect
common justico from the great
civilized powers. ? Atlanta Jour^

After soiiie/lit>cussion Mr Smith
ook the Bible. Ju>t hero the

locketed the proceeds, then ptonptly
ran up to Mr. Smith's
muse, called for 'Mrs Smith, and
isked if she wouldn't like to mako

lispoye of all his books b'fore gong
to Cleveland at Six o'clock,

with all llm heart of si warm

i lino festal slipper waiting, so ho 1
contented himself for the pro>ont { '
with :t telephonic appeal to one
Lewis .fohnson, a nearby friend, j
"Lewis, ' ho urged, "J want I

ng to Cleveland at Six o'clock

[ must see him beiore he leaves ;

inow what Mr S. wants, lie was
an finish my supper ai d get
there." Then he gave a brief j
lescription of the man and ru.-hed
buck to hi- supper.
The good Lew is hopped on a j
passing ear and swept down upon 1
the book-agent just as the train
pulled in.
"See here," he explained,
"Smifh says that he must see you
find that you are to wait over a ' '
train for him. j'
"Sorry; I'd like to oblige him,
but it's impossible. I'm duo in
Cleveland at eight-thirty and
have got to get jthore. But 1
thinking of buying a Bible of
mine for his wife's anniversary
present. It's really a handsome
hook, which I usually sell for
lifteen dollars, but us it is the
last ono 1 have, I o lie red it to him
for live dollars" (producing the
Bible), "Ho was to let mo know
if ho wanted it. Couldn't you
tako it to him, as I can't possibly
wait? Ilo'dbe disappointed not
to have it, 1 know."
I'ho obliging Lewis thereupon
hastily produced tivo dollars for
tho agent, acquired tlie Bible, and
with the best iotontions in tho
world trotted hack to the Smiths
with the book.

their sense of humor saved the
situation, and with chastened
