A petition is to be circulated among

ing been in slavery without the opportu-
nifty of developing their capacities 1T is
fitting that the world should know of the
rapid progress they have made. II will
cite the fact that the American Indian is
to be allowed an exhibit and the Ameri-
can negro is no less consequential.

Don't get Ill In China; II you are going

This is the advice that Sir Cecil Miles,

Auditorium last evening
Tho Chinese DOCTORS" he went on,
"can not cure the natives, much less
foreigners. We had an experience there
that shall not forget. A member OF our

is a law in China which compels every
doctor to hang up In front OF his house
after dark AS many lanterns as he has sent
souls into the next world. When arrived

people to-day So we looked elsewhere.
At every house we approached there were
at least six lamps burning brightly.
When we were about to give up the idea
Of finding a suitable doctor, we accident
ally stumbled across the sign of a physi-
clan on whose door only one lantern was
hanging. We got him out OF bed and
hurried home. He SCENE to know what
he was doing and his treatment relieved
our unfortunate friend for a moment.
Then be was worse than ever Presently

Why do you think SOP
"'There was only one lantern In front

"'Yes. That Is why my lantern burns

IN THE GREAT WEST.
Remarkable Changes Of Population
in the New States.
INCREASES AND DECREASES.
One New State Has Lost 1851 Per Cent.
in "a Decade. While Another Has
Gained 365.13 Per Cent.-Only Three
Old Territories Left and One of Them
Has More People Than Three states.

The figures in the annexed tables tell
their own story. This is a country Of sur
prises, and the movements of the popula-
tion in the great West are full of interest
and instruction. Nevada presents an an
amoly in Western civilization-a State %
years old losing one-fourth its population
in fifteen years. Nor does there seem any
promise of early change. Indeed, it is
freely admitted that since the great bo-
nanzas" have been worked out the de-
cline in population is going on faster
than ever.
Utah is little less Of an anomaly. The
oldest of existing territories, with popu-
lation more stable perhaps than that of
any other commonwealth west or the Mis-
sissippi, it now contains more people than
the three States of Idaho, Wyoming and
Nevada. Oklahoma is a region to which
all eyes are turned, and Idaho too pos
sesses great and growing Importance.

The Discovery of Electricity.

Children rub together bits ,.of amber
picked up from the ground, and find that
when rubbed these small pieces Of waxlike
substance are excited to attract particles
OF light substances like straws and feathers.
Could anything be more elementary or
seemingly further removed from the
mighty mechanical developments OF the
electrical powers which now surround us'
Yet that simple frictional play was the
starting point Of all we now possess cleo
trically. 1t lay by as a child's sport for
ages-lay by for Sir Isaac Newton himself

glass lid containing paper figures, which
would move when the glass surface was

until, each step marked by a gentle ad-
vancement upon advancement, lightning

Rome's Famous street.

or all the historic streets tho great
cities of tho world possess none can sur
pass. IL indeed any can vie with, the So
called Corso OF Rome, writes w. W. Story.
Shorn "a IL Is now OF its ancient and me-
dieval glories, it Ia haunted by trains OF
memories which consecrate IL TO every
student. In our own times, even In Rome,
upstart rivals OF modern growth-and
one In particular, the Via Nazlonale-as-
sumo to compare with IL. II exceeds IL In
length and In breadth; ii has many
modern arts and graces and convenlences
that the narrow and dear old Corso lacks
Larger and newer buildings are ranged
along Its sides. Broader paths for foot
passengers have there been constructed.
Gayer shops with larger windows flaunt
their goods and invite the world OF pur-
chasers. Tramways have there been laid
down, and the sound OF the trumpet from
the tramway omnibuses warns the car
riages and foot passengers TO clear tho
noad. All Ia new. modern and the birth
OF to-day. But there are no memories
there-no CLEANS and visions OF old days
and customs and persons such as cling
about tae narrow length OF the old and
world-famous street. There are no haunt
ing spirits, no historic "reminiscences. no
legends OF the old, no figures OF the past.
There is all the difference between those
two streets that there is between tho gay
young girl just entering into life. full OF
thoughtless gayety, and looking forward
into the future and the stald old matron,
In her serene age. who lives more in the
past than In the present. and who has de-
lightful stories OF times gone by, and the
glories and splendors OF her youth. Could
the Corso be incarnated. with what delight
should we hang upon her lips and listen
10 her old-world tales. and live over with
her the long-vanished past.
