It is only on two nights in the week, j
and Thursdays, that the
American museum of natural history
is open to the public, and the way in
which it is patronized shows how well
tho poorer classes appreciate these
chances of seeing one bf the finest col*
lections of the kind on earth, says the
New York Tribune. The hours are
eight to ten o'clock. The man who lies
been working all day long goes with
his wife and children and the young j
women who have worked in stores or ;
who have been thumping the typewrit* |

"My first visit to the now famous

dom as to outside barbarians. Fancy
Chinaman obtruding himself anywhere
without an invitation or making a pig
of himself with or without the right of
entrance! Fancy a Chinaman forcing
himself upon a stranger and boldly
suggesting bis presence at any func-
tion. public or private! It is about time
for members of \\ asliington society who
have a rag of self-respect left to protect
kindly and courteous hosts, practically
guests of the nation, from insulting im-
position. I actually hoard one woman
say that were she invited to the Chi-
nese legation she would take several
friends.
“Would you dare take such a liberty
with any European embassy or lega-
tion ?*’ I asked.
“No.”
“Then why except the Chinese?”
“Because they are not white and do ,
not understand English.”
I was so shocked at the callous brutal- j
ity of this confession as to be speech-
less. It opened up vistas of similar
possibilities from similar sources, and
when 1 felt the jam on entering the
Chinese legation 1 wondered how many
carried out the intention of my fair
barbarian.
Xo pains were spared by the Chinese
minister and Mine. ^ ang to honor their
American guests. Artistic decorations, I
music, a teeming supper table, all at-
tested the thoughtful consideration l
given to the first function in the new |
legation by the new regime. Every
prospect pleased and only certain
Americans were vile. Some masque-
raded as persons who were known not
to be in town; others walked in with-
out the shadow of an excuse; several
women appeared in bonnets, and a con-
tingent of men made a Chinese wall of
themselves around the supper table,
and ate, and aty, and ute, until mo-
thought they “swelled wisibly before
my \verrjr heves,” as Sam oiler would
have remarked had he been present.
These noble specimens of the American
hog recalled the woman who, being a
constant attendant at afternoon recep-
tions where elaborate lunches were
served, was asked how she could stuff
herself so unconscionably immediately
after dinner.
“Dinner!” retorted the tramp in vel-
vet. “You don’t know what you’re
talking about. I board!” Perhaps the
swallow-tailed Chin-American wall was
composed of boarders who were seizing
the opportunity of their lives. As there
was not a blush among them I blushed
for them.
Whoever imagines because the Chi-
nese belong to the antipodes and do not
speak English that they are not keen
observers and quickly inform them-
selves on subjects foreign to their civil-
ization, little*appreeiates the subtlety »»f
a race that was tlic light of the world
when Europe groped in darkness and
the Americas were unknown. The fact
that these interesting and picturesque
people arc strangers should appeal to
chivalry rather than to ignorant curi-
osity. As, howcTer, the latter element
seems to abide within tin* skins of an
aggressive self-seeking minority that
hang on tho skirts of Washington so-
rietv, the law of svlf-preservation war-
rants a demand on the part of the Chi-
nese minister and Mine. Yang that
cards of invitation shall he presented
at future festivities under their roof.
Thus only con the American hog be
eliminated from functions now marred
by his unseemly presence.

in love with the humming birds and
when they como to the parrots, the
Ananias of the party will tell some tale
of a bird of which lie knew. Many
make a careful study of the excellent
groups of American birds that are on
exhibition, with their nests, eggs and
environments. So natural are these
that often one may hear some young-
ster exclaim with glee that he had seen
that bird roaming about the park.
Fp on the iloor devoted to tin* silent
menagerie women and men look with
horror at the groups of gorillas, chim-
panzees and and ourang-outangs, laugh
at the lifelike postures of the smallci
monkeys, look with wonder at the
giant manatee and stand aghast at the
colossal skeleton of Jumbo.

All through tho building on these
nights there is ever a throng of people
wishing to learn something of which
they have only the vaguest knowledge.
It is unwise, extremely unwise, for o

an erroneous statement of a paterfam-

QUEEN VICTORIA’S DONKEY.
How Hio Itonght the Animal at a Great
Ilnrsaln from a Peasant.
Dtiring Queen Victoria’s recent so
journ at t'imiez she tv as accustomed
every afternoon to rule about the cn
virons of Nice in a little carriage
drawn by a sobcr-looking donkey
named Jocko. The history of this re
liable and highly prized animal is in-
teresting.
The queen was at Acqu isgrana twe
or three years ago, and one morning
was passing- along the border of the
lake when a peasant went by leading
at the end of a rope a well-built don-
growing short, nnd winter
heavy storms was drawing nigh, when
avalanches would be booming dow n the
long white slopes of the peaks, and all ,
the land would he buried.
“Hut, on the other hand, though tins j
white wilderness was new to me, 1 was
familiar with storms, had enjoyed them,
knowing well that in right relations
with them they are ever kindly. The
iiKr>,uuiu..» main Inland channels, extending in j
to butterflies and every direction along the roust, remain
, open all winter; and their shores being
well forested, it would ho easy to keep
l warm in camp, while in a large canoe

I carried. 1 determined, therefore, to go
'ahead ns far north as possible, with or
| without companions, to see and learn
what, 1 could, especially with reference
to future work. When 1 made known
my plans to Mr. Young, the Wraugel
missionary, he offered to go with me,
land with" his assistance 1 procured a
good canoe and a crew of Indians,
gathered a large stock of provisions,
blankets, etc., and on October D set
forth, eager to welcome whatever wild-
I ness might offer, so long us food and
firewood should last. * * * He
I made a journey more than eight hun-
dred miles long; and though hardships
were encountered, and a few dangers,
the wild wonderland made compensa-
tion beyond our most extravagant
hopes.
••The first stages of our journey were
mostly enjoyment. The weather was
about half bright, and we glided along
the green and yellow shores in comfort,
the lovely islands passing in bar-
monior.s succession, like ideas in a fine
poem. The rain did not hinder ns, but
when the wind was too wild we stayed
'ill camp, the Indians usually improving
such storm times in deer hunting,
while i examined the rooks and woods.
Most of our camps were made in nooks
I that were charmingly embowered, and
fringed witli bushes and late flowers

Transforming of Street Car Lines Leaves
Many Horses Out of A Job.
When all the plans of the A’erlces
svsten are carried out the horse will
almost cease to bo a factor in the street
ear transportation facilities of Chicago.
As planned now all horse ear lines with
the exception of n few on the North
side and a few on the West aide will he
run by electricity. This means a sav-
ing of ten thousand horses to the com-
panics of this system, and it lias been
said that in all one hundred thousand
horses which were in use a few years
ago will be cut down to considerably
less than ten thousand. The old horses
are heittg sold, at least such of them as
are not needed. If a horse lias not
been used too long on a street car it is I
considered valuable to drive to an ex* i
press wagon or to do other work of .
like character. Wltcre a horse has j
grown so old as to be practically value-
less it becomes food for human beings.
There is a regular market price for
horses at the Union stock yards, where
they are killed und the meat shipped to
certain foreign countries. There is a
suspicion that some of this meat finds
its way Into Chicago markets, though
this is denied by all who are interested
in the sale or purchase of tlie worn-out
animals. Tho West side alone has
made a saving of six thousand horses,
-.vhich wore in regular use on its vari-
ous lines, while the North side has
done a.vay with nearly or all of four
thousand.' It will thus be seen that in
addition to giving the people much bet-
ter nnd much more rapid transporta-
tion it makes a big saving to the street
ear companies in the purchase of horses
und in the buying of feed for them.

the rocks nnd fossil timber that abound I

to the north of it, to see what I might

“That depends upon the conditions,
signorina,” the man replied, “for if 1
sell him how will I be able to gain my
living?”
* How much did you pay for him?”
“A hundred francs.”

and badly curried donkeys which she
was importuned to buy. Naturally
these attempts were unsuccessful, but
the owners lost nothing except theii
time, which is the least valuable o)
commodities in that easy-going land.
The next year, when her majesty rt*
