New York City VS.. New York State.
IN. Y, SUM-

L he population of the State of New
York, according to the census of 1870. is
about 10000 That of the city of Ne "
York is about $50 900. Allowing for the
| newly annexed districts of Westchester
| cornty, the population of the city may have
increased to 1,OOO, 900, but it is still un-
questionably less than one fourth of that
of the whole State. But while the popula-
ton of the city is to that of the State less
than one to four, and it's representation in
the same proportion, more than ne-third
of the burden of State pauperism, more
than one half OF the State taxes, and an
enormous amount of the State public
school expenses, are borne by the city.
The latest report of the State Board Of
Charities makes the total number of the in
mates OF the various poorhOuses and aims

MOUNT ARARAT

DR.. Bryce described his accent of Mt.
Ararat at the Royal Institution in Lordon
the other evening". AS the Cossacks would
not, from pride, act as porters, he engaged
hurds to carry his impedi ments, but was
ohllged also to engage Cossacks to protect
hum tfom his kurds. Notwithstanding the
tact CEst the sscent has now been made
several times, it is still rooted supersti.

that 1t cannoC he aSceaded. His attendants
gradually fell off, and he completed the
ascent alone. When far above the level Of
trees, no came upon small piece of wood,
which he exhibited, though he WAS not
prepared TO account for it's Appearance at
so great an elevation. Former travellers
have alinded 20 the volcanic origin of the
mountain. He found this to be- so, though
there was no trace OF crater, no more than
OF the Ark, though there IS firm belief
through the district that the Ark is still
preserved in airecess He thinks the whole
ofthe summit has beec carried away by
den"dation. The appearance of the noun
tain, rising, as it does, Ia 500 above the
valley level; is very striking. aud it
naturally suggests that it would be the
first spot of dry land in the district after
the flood. DR.. Bryce said be believed the
people OF the distrIcf were retrorauior
rather than progressing.

peat her campaign of 1928 and 1890, nor q
her present preparations indicate such au
intention. 1t is likely that after the Rus
sian army has possessed itself of Galatz, it
will proceed to occupy Brshilov, Silistria
on the Danube, Varns and Bourgbas on the
coast, and Shumla and other points in the
interior. Shumla is on the direct line of
Silistria, Brahilov and Galatz, back to Rus
sia, while it is so situated as to be in easy
communication with Varna on the sea.
IT the Russian army pursues the course
indicated by lite preparations it will pro-
baby move down on this line, and from
Shumla as it's base strike for Adrianople
as its first objective point. Russia has
about twice as many men under arms as
Turkey has. Turkey can not ford to let
the Russian army at the eastern end of the
Black Sea pass into Arm enis and dIspossess
her of part of her Asiatic dominions with
put making some resistance. To make
this resistance she will have to detach a
arge part of the army which might |
otherwise be- employed in resisting the |
Russian advance through European TOR. |
