The "India Rubber Man, who has
been a source of astonishment to medi-
cal men in Germany and England. has
arrived in this city, says the New York
Sun, and has been the subject OF an
examination by physicians and surgeons
at the Ashland House, where he is
stopping. Mr.. G. A. Farini, to whose
care the "Gumml- Mensch" was con-
signed, acted as his introducer and in
terpreter, for Herr Heinrich Haag, the
curiosity in question, who is native OF
Nuremberg, is a simple-minded uphol-
sterer, innocent in any other language
than German.
Herr Haag is lightly-built German,
with reddish-brown hair, sandy NOUS
taehe aud whskers. and blue eyes, and
weighs only 1870 pounds. The most
critical observer, seeing him in a state
of repose, would fail to find anything
queer about him; but all the medical
men gasped when, seizing the skin Of
his throat, he hauled it up so far as to
completely mask his face up to the eye
brows. Then he drew down the skin
over each eye so as to lap over the
cheek, pulled the skin at the point of
his nose down TO his chin, clutched the
skin OF his breast and hauled it out q
good seven inches from his body;
reached over his shoulders and dragged
up flaps of skin that looked from the
front as if he was pulling an India-rub-
Der blanket over h,s back, and seizing
the skin Of his knee, drew it out so far
that he twisted it up in knot as one
might wet towel. Whenever the
skin was let so in glided back smoothly
into place without wrinkle. and it
looked like the skin Of any one else.
The doctors crowded around the In
dia-rubber skinned man, tagging his
outlcle in. all directions; held loose
flaps Of it, and slightly scorched the
skin in their eagerness to see the circu-
lation OF the blood in the delicate
blood vessels Of the skin.
MIR. Haag showed large scar on his
arm where Professor Leube. of Erlan-
gen, cut out a, piece Of skin to get at
the bottom facts about it. The scar
has not grown fast to the flesh under
meath. but pulls six inches away, as il
1t was merely patch or darned spot in
loose garment Professor Leube
found that there was no sub-cutaneous
fat; that there was a strange lack Of
tissue between the skin and the flesh,
and that the porous processes fixing the
skin to the deep fascia are loose and
long. The doctors agree that this is a
surprising case Of dermatolysis-''s ''slip.

INSECTS OR NO INSECTS.

In these days of prophecy when Ven
nsr and the weather bureau are vie
ing for the first place in the annals of
representation, an opinion of interest
to agriculturists will be found in an ar
ticle III the New York Herald relative to
insects. 1t says the appearance of a
peculiar grasshopper IN Westchester
County seems to cause a premature
alarm among the farmers Ill that vicinity.
Certainly, after the agricultural losses of
last year, the uprising of q powerful ar
my of insects next summer would be
most untimely and unwelcome, and this,
we suppose, the Westchester farmers
fear is portended by the appearance of
the black grasshopPer in their fields be-
fore winter has fairly closed. 1t is too
early to predict whether the next sum-
mer's crops viii be imperiled by the in
sect hosts, but the anomalous and extra
ordinary mild winter suggests the ques-
ton. During the memorable cold win
ters of 1879 and 1880 in Europe there
was abundant opportunity for testing the
effect Of severe season on insects,
which was improved by French invest
igator, NJ. Won. In report in La Ma
ture last year this gentleman stated that,
so far from the unusually rigorous win
ter destroying the insets, son the con-
trary the extreme rigor of the two last
winters proved advantageous to their
preservation. In fact, many were en-
abled to escape insectivorous birds,
the soil. The excessive cold caused,
moreover, an almost unprecedented NOR
tally among the birds" Happily the
reverse conditions have obtained In this
country during the current winter, and,

The Garfield EuEagy.

The memorial Grafton of Hon. James G..
Blaine was delivered i'll the hall of the House
of Representatives at Washington on the 26th
ut, before a vast audience who listened to the
address with the greatest of interest while pre-
serving a solemn silence. Nh. Blaine read his
speech from large sheets of manuscript deeply
bOrdered In black, in medium tone of voice and
without any attempt at oratOrIcal elaboration
Seated In the galleries and on the floor of the
house were a great number of distinguished
persons who had witnessed President Garfield's
inauguration and who were present on the oc-
casion of his funeral. George Bancroft, who
pronounced the euOgy on President Lincoln
sat in the first row by the side of W. W. Cor
cOran, Washington's wealthy and liberal citi-
zen. Next sat Cyrus Field and next to him
President Arthur. On the Presidents right,
the cabinet was seated, all of them up in the
sixties except Robert Lincoln, whose Youthful
appearance was strong in its contrast. The alb
sence of the ex-presidents and vice-presidents
who had special Invitations was noticeable and
especially that of Mr.. Hayes the predecessor
and fellOw-citizen of Garfield. No member of
the late Presidents family was present The
eulogy was concluded at 1:50 P. NJ, having
taken just an hour and a half in its delivery
As Mr. Blaine uttered the last solemn words
the spectators broke into a storm of applause
which was not hushed for some minutes. The
benediction was then offered by Rev. DR.. Bull

A days journey from Kraba brought
us to Dettlfoss. My measurements gave
me 261 feet as the actual height, as
against 1000 feet of some neophyte in
the art of travelling. This fall is the
river Yokulsa, which takes its rise on
the north side of the Vatna Yokull. In
the spring and summer it is a roaring
glacial torrent, flowing about 100 miles
due north through we'll worn bed of
basalt. About thirty-tive miles from
the sea it tumbles over high basaltic
cliffs, runs through a deep ravine, and
finds It's outlet right upon the Arctic
Circle. Just before it falls the bed be-
comes too confined for this sllrging mass
of ice and water, and it often leaves its
bed, carrying everything before it, as
was shown by the well-worn stones and
detr1tus over which we passed. For sew
eral hours we rode over this plain,
among mounds of detritus, grouped in
that crescent-shaped arrangement so
characteristic of glacial moraines. I at
first thought / had accidentally fallen
upon one of those relics of the glacial
period.

THE DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH.

To those who have at all listened to
the communistic arguments of impe-
cunlous extremists regarding an equal
distribution of the worlds wealth and a
division of the immense fortunes in the
Golfers of alleged monopolists, the de-
auctions of Mr.. Mulhall, well-kncwn
English statistician relative to the dis
tribution of wealth, viii be of interest,
Comparing 1910 with 1877, the probate
returns of the United Kingdom showed
that, dividing all classes into rich, mid
dle-class, and working class, in 1910, in
England, of the first there were, 2.4O
per cent, of the second, 81 20, of the
last, 76.40. In 1877 it was represented
by $40, 2940, and $3.50 per cent. In
1910 England had an aggregate wealth
OF Sc per cent as her shares of the means
of the whole United Kingdom, but III
1877 Scotland and Ireland showed IN
creased means, and that of England fell
some 3 per cent. If in 1910 the amounts
OF property on which probate Of sue
cesslon duties were paid represented a
total value of means equivalent to e54, =
Gle, 900, this was about e. Is. average
per inhabitant. In 1877 it was e131,
1000 or 93 19s. per person In the
United Kingdom. tits IN Scotland tha
there is more wealth In proportion to
persons than perhaps any other country
in the world. During the thirty-seven
years from 1910 to 1877 her wealth has
increased from G196, 100000 to 9970,-
O0O. 900, or to-day she has e277 to every
inhabitant. "Forty years ago." writes
Mr.. Mulhall, "Scotland swarmed with
beggars to such a degree that the sher-
IFS declared the state of the country
was most alarming, and the farmers were
SO poor that they bled their cattle and
cooked the blood as food" What has
been the condition of Ireland? Her
wealth, too, has increased. In 1910 il
WIS 93O8, 000, 900, or 9112, 900, 900 more
than Scotland. To-day it is G43S, O00,-
600, or 9S3 per head Wherever the
middle class is the most comfortable the
country is the most prosperous. This is
three times as numerous in France as in
Germany, and lowest III Russia. In
fact Russia is country of princes and
peasants-and the frst-some "a, 746-
have al average income of $40, 900; the
merchants, some $4,000, $500, while
the 1924, 100 peasants have an income
of 1886 each. These figures show that
the people of the old world are improv-
ing IN condition in ratio co-equal with
the advance of intellig nee and the cul.
tivation OF economical habits, and that
the worlds wealth will always flow to,
wards those who exhibit intelligence
and energy III LIES management coupled
with rational degree of accretiveness.

on the sound principle suggested by this
writer, we may infer that the late mild
season taken by itself does not augur a
great grasshopper invasion, but rather
otherwise. DR.. Fitch and Professor Ri
ley have shown by records that "almost
all great army worm years have been I'M
usually wet, with the preceding year I'M
usually dry" Judging by this rule we
can see no reason to apprehend at pres
ent any exceptional visitation of the crop
destroying pests this year. But the
question is one of great Importance to
agriculturists and to the whole country,
and as eminent entomologists assert that,
with the aid of adequate meteorological
data, they can forecast the great grass
hopper years, they will do the country
good service to look into the matter and
make known the result of the investiga-

TARIFF ANOMALIES.

The custom authorities of Germany
seem to be acting under fit of spleen
with reference to American importations
into their country. They have sudden
Iy discovered that they can raise the duty
on American products by classifying
them as something which they are not.
Thus canned meats and soups have be-
come iron ware under German interpre-
tation, while canvased hams are classified
as cotton goods. Formerly canned beef,
soups, and minced meats were classified
under the head of slaughtered and
prepared meats" AS such they were
subject to a duty of twelve marks per
100 kilos, or 81. Sc per 220 pounds, equal
to about fifteen per cent. of the value.
But quite recently some brilliant official
discovered that the meats were packed
In tin cans or boxes, to which the labels
were affixed, and so he classed all such
products under the head of &" ironware -
and doubled the duty. The matter was
brought to the attention of the custom
house director, and finally to that of the
minister of finance at Berlin, but both
sustained the action of the official first
making the classification. Since then
the German government has decided to
classify American hams in canvas bags
under the head of cotton goods, and levy
duty of eighty marks per one hundred
kilos, against twelve marks, the former
duty. The above miserable subterfuges
are on par with Bismarck's schemes to
stop emigration, and will only result in
heaping ridicule on the head of the gov
eminent which sanctions them.
