A visit to the spot convinced those who went there that such a scene of "disaster and ruin could not be lully described in the darkness and gloom which prevailed ou Friday night.

It was used for preparing -glycerine used" in the man ufacture of cartri ljje.s. The wood work of this structure was destroyed, and walls thrown down. Further on were some glycerine and acid tanks, inclosed, in wooden structures, two in number, both' of which were torn to pieces.

The nearest sembls.ee tohumanity found was the body of a Ghiuaman, minus the head and- one leg and a portion of the lower part of the left side. Strange to say, nearly all the pigtals of the Chinamen killed were found uninjured Some of them had pieces of the skin of the skull attached, but nothing like a human skull attacked, but nothing like a human skull or even a piece ofrsembly, and ratified this the 29'Ji day 909.

The reader has,' perhaps, been under the galling examinations of some im pudent, smooth-tongued lawyer. If so, he can heartily appreciate the follow ing. It occurred in a divorce suit in one of our city courts. A witeess for the defense wan call- ea. lie was a young man, flashily dressed, but his features had a sharp, shrewd expression. ': ',! The counsel for the plainthT examin ed him thus: TV hat do you know about this case? I don't know much. You don't eh? What did you come here for? Because I cou!i?h't help it. What's your occupation? I have no particular occupation. You have not, eh? Well who do you work for what kind of business are you engaged in? Well if you must know. I work for Street & Walker ; my business is to hunt for pleasure. Now, here, young roan. Don't you attempt to be witty or make any impu dent remarks. You say rou have no occapation, and that you loaf around doing nothing. I suppose 3-ou are one of the light- fingered gentry eh? Well.; ah yes ; lama thief. Oh you are. eh? I thought so the moment I saw you. I can always tell an honest man the moment I see h:m. Now sir what do you mean by coming here to testify -do you think honest men will believe you? Yes, I do. I have sworn to tell the truth, but I did not tell you what kind of a thief f am. I'm a thief of, a pe culiar kind, a second Macawber, wait ing for something to turn up. Fro- castination is the thief of time, and as I am a prccrastinator, I am therefore a thiof of time, do yea see? The lawyer did not see, but the au dience 'did, and they laughed heartily ,to think the lawyer had been so sadly taken in. lb.3 lawyer drew himself up in a dignified mann-or, and angrily said to tuj witness: . Yoa think ya aro.vry ;.lLty, .lever jouiig man Uo n't yen? Yea must i.ct think "tbt y'wU can ins".:.t, tu2 cov.rt with impunity. I sha'.i have you im prisoned for contempt of court if you do net answer me truthfully. Now, sir were you ever imprisoned? The witness seemed unwilling to an- swer. lne lawyer saia, impatiently. Answer me sir ! I was, said the witness, slowly and reluctantly. I Ah ! you were,, eh? 1 thought so. When and where, how long, and for what? When I was a boy, about ten years old. Where? in the cellar. How long? one day. For what? playing hookey. Now, sir, no more of this tomfoolery, or you shall be imprisoned for con tempt of court. Answer me truthfullyj. sir. Were you eer imprisoned for theft? The witness hesitated. I must have an answer. j. I was, came slowly and reluctantly from the witness' lips. The lawyer smiled maliciously, and said :.:.;. ' Ah ! I thought so. Let us have a truthful account of it. When I was a boy about eight years old I was very fond of pears, but hav ing no money to buy any, I occasional ly borrowed soma from the orchard of a ctertam lawyer. Of course I intend ed to repay him, but one night : ha cap lured me, and put me in prison for debt. j j. . Fray go on ; quite interesting ; the beginning of all thieves, forgers, and blackguards robbing orchards, very pleasant pastime for small boys. How many years did yoa stay in prison? I was released the next day. i What ! do you mean to say that the lawyer did not prosecute you. : I don't believe that. J I Exactly. He didn't prosecute, be cause he was caujbt that very niht borrowing somebody's horse without permission and he was lynched. The audience went in to roars of laughter. When sdence wa restored, the lawyer seemed to be satisfied with what he had learned of the witness' character, for his next question was : Were you with the defendant in the army during the late war? ; . No, sir; I did not serve in the late war. . - '- On, of course yoa didn't. Fighting for your country didn't agree with your constitution I deserve my country's gratitude, nevertheless, for hare, single-hand THY (iOD'S. D TIUTII S." carried pn for many years a painful atid disastrous civil war on a small 6cale against my mother-in-law, and I have aiwaj-s had the satisfaction of coming ofT vanquished. For this I de serve my country's gratitude. You arc just the kind of a man moth trs-in-law ought to take care of. On the contrary, my' mother-in-law's great sorrow. is thajt I am not a lawyer for then, says she,iIwou!d bo a limb of the law, on whom she could lean for support and protection. She likes lawyers, Secause, she says, they resem ble her in being so generous and ready to interfere and adjust other people's affairs. The audience laughed heartily at the hit at the lawyer. He sarcastical ly said : luai win to; i nave nothing more to ask. I don't want to waste any more time; your, testimony is worths less and puerile. J The witness was seated on a chair four feet above the floor. He leaned forward, and looked down at the law yer and said : 1 4 j Sir, you are beneath me? j He then stepped down, am'id the up roarious laughter of! the audience.! i The IMiUospher't Slonc. i 'I', ' J The eccentric but brilliant John Randolph once rose suddenly up hi hi3 seat in the House of Representa tives and screamed out at the top of his shrill poice : ". -.'...'
