EDITORIAL NOTES.

German culture is having it's effect. German papers express serious alarm at the spread of irreligion in the fatherland. The number of Germans in the large cities receiving neither baptism nor conirma- tion amounts to hundreds of thousands. In Prussia alone there are 30,000 irreligious persons who have never been baptized.
 The smoke from the burning forests in this country travels far. Captain Charles L. Galloway, commander of the New York and Cuba steamer City of Alexandria, which arrived in New York Wednesday, reports that ''the smoke arising from the vast forest fires in the United States has penetrated as far south as Havana, caus- ing thick red haze"
 Cremation fourishes in Japan. Tokio has six crematories, in which the bones of at least one-third of the dead are burned. In 1888, il, ,O23 of the s4, ,437 persons who died were cremated, and since burial in the city was forbidden the number has been increased. According to the style of cre- nation, the price is $s.75, $2 or s1 Sixty six pounds of wood, which costs approxi- mately 25 cents, suffices for the burning of body in. three hours.
