Blackburn and Carlisle seem to have
come to an understanding in regard
to the Speakership, and have with
drawn the case from the public. This
is a manifestation of great wisdom on
the part of these gentlemen, and
shows that either of them is fit to be

NAIL MATTERS.

The general superintendent of the rail-
way mail services has issued the following
order:
Complaint has been. made that sam
pies of fertilizers paints, inks, powders,
and other unmailable articles are being
sent through the mails from many of the
larger postoflices, in violation of the regu-
lations. In the hurry of making up and
dispatching the mails it may not always be
possible to scrutinize every package SO as
to exclude everything unmailable; but it
is believed that no intelligent business man
would knowingly offer anything for mail
ing forbidden by the regulations. Super
intendents are therefore requested to con-
fer with the postmasters in their respective
divisions as to the best methods of exer-
cising more rigid scrutiny of all forth
class matter mailed. 1t would be well
for all postmasters to call the atten-
tion of the public, through the press and
otherwise, to the class of matter excluded
from the mail under the regulations, so that
all may understand that it is in their
own general interest that the department
is trying by every means to exclude from
the mail everything that might, under any
circumstances, damage in any way other
articles in the mails, or the persons of those
handling them"

Commenting on these returns Superin-
tendent Cove says: II am satisfied the
conditions were too limited to have much
if any, significance; that one hundred
rather than ten subjects should have been
examined. However, present the statistics
as received, with thanks to those who have
so kindly responded. 1 expected to find a
greater difference than the returns seem to
indicate. l believed the chests of our
mountain boys, born n mile above the sea-
would show greater relative expansion. 1
had concluded that high altitude would
produce men of small stature. 1t is difficult
to comprehend how the Pittsburg boy
has but nine-tenths of an inch expansion,
while Indianapolis report 81 inches. 1
found one boy in Denver with expansion of
four inches, and but one less than three
inches"
1t is probable that the present generation
of Colorado boys are not fair sample of
the effect of high altitude upon the physi-
cal structure of man. The first generation
of Coloradoans would scarcely show any
physical difference. 1t is claimed that
climate influences show themselves first in
the fourth or fifth generation, as in India
This may be true of Colorado, and while
the first experiment proved failure it
should serve as an incentive, and others
should be made. 1t is indeed an interest
ing field of investigation and one that
should not be neglected.

EFFECTS OF ALTITUDE.
An Interesting Subject which May
show Important Facts.

Denver Republican, May 4.
Impressed with the importance and the
benefits to be derived from original scien-
tific research at this altitude, Professor
Aaron Cove, superintendent of the public
schools of Denver instituted an investiga-
ton into the effect of altitude upon the
physical development of youths. He be-
lieved that some helpful facts could be
gained by comparison of physical condi-
tions of those born and reared at different
attitudes The superintendents of eighteen
cities on or near the parallel of forty de-
grees, north latitude, were given the fol-
lowing conditions:
Select ten boys of good health, habits
and antecedents, near their twelfth birth
day, born and bred in the neighborhood.
Ask competent physician to. make the
measurements.
1. Altitude of the place.
2. Average height of the ten boys.
3. Average weight of the ten boys.
4. Average pulse-rate sitting.
5. Average pulse-rate standing.
6. Average rate Of aspirations per min
ute.
7. Average circumference of chest at
forced expiration.
8. Average circumference of chest at
forced inspiration.
The result of these observations, while
disappointing to the high altitude theorists,
is interesting and instructive. The figures
returned are rs follows:
