declares the Chicago Herald.

Everywhere in California the OhlncHo
are now working the gold mines
uu tueir oh a account. The metal is
sent directly to China, and ia smuggled
out of the country in the name
way that opium is smuggled in, Since
1860 the Chinese have taken from California
mines the enormous sum of
$U1,75Q,000.
It is reported that the Czar of Huesin
will shortly issue a decree abolish*
ing the use of the knout in the public
courts of that country. Not long ag#
ho ordered the Governors of all the
Provinces of the Empire to make a
special report on this form of punish*
mcnt. The report showed that the
knout was often used for the most
trivinr offenses, thnt women ?n<l
dreu were not exempt from it, an ' that
its victims were frequently ma inn .1 of
life. The Governors were unsuimuue
in favor of its abolition.
William Deau Howells, while edittug
a certain magazine, one day re*
ceived from Elizabeth Stuart Phelps a
story which he didn't care to publish,
relates the New York Advertiser. It
dealt with all sorts of unpleasuut people
; who used bad English and were
not cultured. As Miss Phelps belonged
to a ??crod coterie compose.I of people
who were accustomed to havo their
work accepted, whether it was good,
bad or indifferont, William Dean vu
a hole. But he finally netyed hiip
to Miss Phelps, saying:
' F ^WWbn know this ia not a pleasant
HJT ^Wtory." Miss Phelps changed the
H*itle?originally "The Oystermau"?
^Jo "Not a Pleasant Story," sold it to
jmother magazine and ont William off
$ier visiting list. They met thereafter
as strangers.

Since the loss of lives on the coast
of New Jersey at ths time of the recent
givufc storm there hfti been iu? agitation
in the seaport towns and Kunrner
resorts along thai coast in favor of an
extension of the ti'ne of employment
of tho men in the United States LifeSaving
Service. Four seamen of the
wrecked schooner Mary F. Keiry were
drowned at Asbury Park, for instanoe,
within thirty feet of tho shore, while
hundreds of people stood on tho beach
unable to help them. Twenty-four
seamen were drowned off tho New Jersey
coast in a range of ton miles, where
there were then four unoccupied life"Saving
stations. The life-saving crews
are discharged on May 1, and do not
get employment again until September
1. It is argued that violent storms
occur iu August, aud that th9 life-saviug
crews at least should be employed
from the beginning of that mouth.
Nearly every large hotel in New York
has an individuality, observes tho Journal,
which is stamped on the facade of
it by the people of different climes and
parts of this country and in different
trades a ho patronize them. Englishj&jnon
end Canadians wuuiri not think of
^"putting up art any other plaoe than the
Brevoort or Brunswick. The game of
politics is indelibly imprinted on the
Hoffman and Fifth Avenue. One can
almost hear the beating of horses' hoofs
when ho steps into the Coleman and
Gilsey, and an inaider would not bo
surprised if he saw a man running for
a base or an umpire calling "Three
3trikes and out" in the Bturtevant.
The corridors of the Imperial resemble
a sooiable club in some Western oity.
The Vendome is the homo of prosperous
Hebrew merchants from all parts
of the country, and there is just enough
of a theatrioal flavor about the clientele
to make it interesting. The Metropole
is nothing more than a large
and comfortable bachelors' quarters.
In every part of the Gedney House the
eyes are blinded by the glare of the
footlights. This hotel is the home of
the actor and the manager. The jingle
*of money and the clipping of coupons
can l>e heard in the Windsor and the
Plaza. An air of serenity and comfort
that riches beget permeates every nook
and oranny in the spacions corridors
of the Plaza, New Netherlands, Savoy
and Holland House.
