FORTUNE IN JEWEL PINS.
Chance for Some Ingenious Inventor.
The sunouncement that a brooch pin has been invented which is of so safe a
character that chance of loss is reduced to a minimum has stirred the hopes of women who dally suffer from insecure pins.
The culminating question a woman asks when purchasing a brooch that otherwise pleases ber is this; "Has it a good pin 1' By a good pin, a woman means a pin that id strong and sharp, and that does not slip when it is fixed in the corsage.
*Excuse me, I think you will lose your brooch," is a frequently heard note of warn- the right hand of the woman addressed nervously to her throat.
Ag
ple, the hits upon, the very brooch that is hanging in instant perit of a descent, because she is aware of the shortcomings of that particular pih in hér possesalón.“
The only stance of perfection is the brooch pin that is within measurable
safety-pin, frequently used by jewellers for the mounting of their less expensive gema. When carefully secured to a dress it is rarely lost. But it be too clumsy a contrivance for the best gema, brune
It ought to be possible to combine light- ness and elegance with absolute reliability, and for an enterprising firm there should be a fortune in the making of such pins.

CHINA'S ARMY.
Japanese as Officers.
The Frankfort Gazelte states that recent- Is several German officers have been deprived of their positions in the Chinese Army, and their places have been filled by Japanere.
For this two reasons are aug. gested. The Chinese, especially those who. are hoing, stirred by the newly awakened AUDEO of nationality, prefor the yellow man To the white, with whose services they aro always glad to be able to dispense. In addition, the Japanese officer, while dis- tinguished for zeal and practical efficiency, is content with mora modest remuneration than his European rival, and economical considerations thus come in to reinforce the instincts of race.
THE STATE OF CHINA.
Opinions from Home,
The papers by the last mail contain many references to the condition of China to-day and the probability of an outbreak.
At Washington on Fobruary 11 the situa ntion was regarded as so threatening that the Secretary for War asked Congress for a amall emergency fund of 100,000 dollars (£20,000) to facilitate the despatch of troops. But the Appropriations Committee has declined, as Mr Taft has admitted that it is not intended to send troops till it is evident that protection is needed for Americans in China.
Two days later it was announced, that the Administration were showing some irritation because Congress had not appro- priated the £20,000. The Washington cor- respondent of the Morning Post remarked: -Asked to-day by your correspondent if the situation was as alarming as had been represented, a
a member of the Cabinet said, *** We should selecting his words carefully: be guilty of criminality if we did not adopt those precautionary measures that are indicated as obvious. They may not be necessary, but they are certainly to-day indicated as absolutely necessary. Mer- chants engaged in the Asiatic trade have represented to the Government that there is no danger of an uprising, and
the agitation for military measures is unwise and likely to produce the

On Saturday they 3RD Class were completely outplayed by the Hoarts, £22. 0. 0. and showed very little knowledge of the game.
