GEORGE w. CHILDs.
His Condition Is Serious, If Not
Critical!

Critical.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 27.-George w.
Childs' condition tonight remains seri-
Gus, if not critical, although the bulle-
tins issued by the physicians in attend
ance from time TO time during the day
have been of reass uring nature.
Their frequent consultation, how
ever, indicates that sudden turn
for the worse would not come
unexpectedly. With the change last
night. the patient sank into an uncOn-
SciouS state, and grave fears that the
end was near were expressed on all
sides. But this morning consciousness
had returned. and during the day he
seemed considerably brighter than for
several hours prior to Friday nights
sinking spell.
Mr.. Chiids is suffering from complete
nervous prOstration. and this it is which
causes his physicians more anxiety than
the partial paralysis. Late tonight
Drs. Da Costa and Leidy held a consulta-
ton, and at its conclusion they issued
the following bulletin: MIR. Childs
has passed better day. His condition
is still serious"
DR.. Morris. one of the attending ply
siclans, gave it as his opinion that there
was no immediate danger of change
for the worse.

THE BOND ISSUE.
Report of the House judiciary
Committee on Carlisle;s Scheme.

ON StrItSlO y SCncGe.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The full re-
port of the house committee on judiciary
questioning Secretary Carlisle's bond
policy was presented to the house by
Representative Bailey Dem., Tex to-
night. 1t is an elaborate review
OF the law in the case and conserYa-
tive but decided statement of difference
of opinion with Secretary Carlisle. The
report states that it appears too clear
for argument that the secretary of the
treasury was authorized to issue bonds
only to enable him to provide for the
redemption authorized by the re-
demption act The construction
! heretofore has been acquiesced
in by all men and all parties.
The fact is pointed out that in
his annual report the secretary did not
consider himself authorized to sell
bonds or to use their proceeds for the
expense of the government. Special
attention is given to the argument OF
the secretary before the committee that
money in the treasury, not otherwise
available, could be used for paying
bonds. The report says that the pro-
ceeds of bond issue are otherwise
available" as the resumption act specifi-
cally limited those proceeds to redeem
ing bonds.

The Car in Copenhagen.

New York World.
The ear made himself very popular
during his stay in Copenhagen by wan
derlng about plainly dressed and in
democratic fashion, accompanied only
by the royal princess. 1t was his Gus
tom to enter any shop or restaurant
that struck his fancy. and his large
purchases of jewelry and confectionery
won the hearts OF the shopkeepers.
The cZar's habit of sauntering about
unattended caused the police great con-
Germ, however, and they redoubled their
efforts to watch all suspicious charac-

Russian bomb thrower would elude
their vigilance.

ALPINE TORRENTS IN HARNEss

Water Power Now Used to Light Moun.
 tain Villages With Electricity.
 II over the Tyrol, Switzerland. and the Alpine country generally, you find to-day curious conjunction of the modern and the medieval in the village streets. the stores and the inns, 2 said a traveller to a New York Sun man re- gently. ..In the smallest, the most re- mote and the most ancient villages in the Bavarian Alps, the Tyrol and the Rernese oberland you find the streets, the stores, the inns, and not infre- quently the houses, supplied with elec- tric lights. I revisited last August little village back in the Tyrolean mountains, near Innsbruck, which is one of the most eharaeteristically medieval communities one could well find. The people live ii the houses of their grandsires, and follow their GUS toms and ways.
 This year I arrived there in the evening. and was amazed to find the streets as brilliantly lighted as Broad way, where formerly the only light was from swinging horn lantern here and there. There were clusters of in candescent lights strung across the streets every few yards. The little inn had a complete installation, and so had the flaw little shops. was prepared to learn that the formerly quiet village had become fashionable watering place. But it hadn't. It was as quiet and as slow, antiquated and out of date as ever. Later, as I wandered 4B T found the same change everywhere.
 Ut is very natural that it should be SO, too, for in all that region there is power in superabundancc' running waste on every hand. From every rock leaps a cascade, and over every cliff rears a waterfall; there are streams that flow evenly with a steady, small power and torrents that thunder down with tons of force. The village of Murren, perehed on the edge of cliff opposite tle Jungffau, at q height of five thousand feet above sea level, has q very complete electric lighting system, and power enough within q few hundred yards radius to light half New York The villages get their light almost free.
 This Is, so far as l could learn, the very first use to which. the vast water power in the Alps has teen put. TIith- erto it has all run idle.
