CHINA ADOS TO DEMON LIST
At Lost Five N?\V "Influence*" Have
Com* to That Country With
Spreading Civlizatlon.
\
China is h land (>: idcniQQl and
apirits. For untold agoa ovaty; busi
ness, ?? \?? i \ dwelling and oervj&ondl*
tion of ''if lias had it* particular
demon or flock of demon*. TJie fill Inn
Chinos*' religion <*?>iiKlMte?l mainly of
rites lo either propitiate Or render
powerless* the evil spirits and encour
age the attendance of the good ones.
The category of demon* was so com
plete thut it wmn not until modern
civilization began to work Km changes
that there was room for any more.
Now, however, there are at least
five new devils. according to l?r. W. U
Hudson of Kafthlug, whose lectures lb
Shanghai on the Chinese conception of
ghosts and spirits have been reported
to the Man Francisco Chronicle.
"Among the modern new devils," Dr.
Hudson said In one lecture, "are the
malaria devil, the opium devil, the red
match dey!!, tile railway devil and the
gunshot devil. The natives of the ma
lajia districts have learned that moo
qulto noting la very efficacious In com
bating the malaria devil. But that
method la not very Impressive, and
the Chinese, especially those lo the
back country districts. Insist on being
tmpreaaed. So the prleets and native
doctors have devised charms and e*or
eiltns whereby they claim to banish the
demon without recourse to the netting,
The foreign doctors naturally are
skeptical, but if noise snd banners and
general (repressiveness have auy vir
tue, the method should be effective.
"The opium devil calle for a particu
lar aet of incantations and paper
prayers, as does the red match demos.
This Is a comparatively new demon
that came into being about the time
that tho Chinese discovered that eat
ing match heads was a very conven
ient and cheap way of committing sui
cide. The railway devil Is distinctly
foreign, the natives say. He dwells
Inside locomotives and his special busi
ness is to run the engine over people
at every opportunity. He is subject to
two sets of prayers, one to allay his
yearning to destroy, the other invoking
his aid for those tired of life snd de
sirous of a speedy end.
"Then there Is the gunshot devil,
not so distinctly foreign as his brother
of the railway, but just as blood
thirsty. He has come Into prominence
since the mode of public execution was
changed in most places from behead
ing with the sword to shooting.
Originator ef "Bread Lin*."
John Leake, a wealthy New Yorker
of Revolutionary days, was respon
sible for the "dole of bread" distribut
ed weekly by Trinity parish, provision
for wbloh he made in his will. A por
tion of his will said:
"I hereby give and bequeath to the
rector and vestrymen of Trinity par
ish, New York city, N. Y? 1,000
pounds, put out at Interest, to be laid
out In the annual Income in sixpenny
wheaten loaves of bread and dlstribut
ed to such-poor as shall appear most
deserving."
The dole's "wheaten bread" has been
distributed for 128 years. Originally
18 poor families were provided for,
but only 10 are being taken care of
now, due to the high cost of living,
and the fact that the same time pros
perity has reached out Into more
homes, and there Is less need of It
Bach family gets from four to six
loaves. St. Luke's chapel parish
house has been the scene of the dole
for four years, the charity having been
distributed before that time from Sf.
John's chapel. Originally Its home
was Trinity church, where the poor
had to apply for it at the altar after
the Sunday service.
She Cornea No More.
My little friend in the apartment
across the hall was a studious pupil
who had come to my apartment for
a few hints in the execution of her
studies when a mutual friend of ours
who was known as a chatterbox was
seen coming down the street headed
for my apartment
My friend, being more anxious to
spend an hopr studying than talking,
said, "Tell her that I am not here,"
and hid in a fair slxed clothes hamper,
expecting the talkative party to leave
In a moment or two.
Forty-five minutes passed and to my
horror the hidden one sneezed, while
1b the clothes hamper. I could barely
keep from laughing; in fact a little
smile from me seemed to give away
the entire proceeding. The talkative
friend evidently had discovered the
Intrigue, for she left Immediately, and
although this happened some time ago,
we have never seen her since.
This certainly wnn my most embar
rassing moment?Exchange.
Portuguese Feminism.
Recently the diploma of doctor of
agronomical engineering was for the
first time conferred upon a woman
In Brazil. The recipient, Maria Ade
laida Pinto de Magallanes Qulntanilla,
is a yonng woman of Portuguese birth.
She comes from one of the most noted
of the Iberian families, being a direct
descendant as her name would indi
cate, of the fatrious sailor Magellan.
Miss Magallanes Is the third woman
in the family to have received the
doctorate, her two elder sisters having
been graduated as experts in law and
pharmaceutics. She has made a spe
cial study of tropical plants and con
ditions.
