The authorities in this country and on
the continent are everywhere awakening to
n sense of the necessity of supplying towns
with really good, nonpolluted water. In
ancient days every family had its own draw
well, and water was supplied by springs.
If one well became polluted, it at all events
did not interfere with the health of the next
door neighbor.
But nowadays we all drink out of the
same can, as it were, and when, as in the
case of the Worthing supply, the water be
comes contaminated the poisoning goes on
wholesale. Of course each householder can
do Il good deal to purify the water served

Of all the extraordinary stories of female
adventuresses the account of the career Of
Golden Hand" Russian woman recently
condemned to Siberia for life, reads most
like an effort of fiction.
Remarkably attractive and good looking,
and speaking fluently Russian, Roumanian,
German, French and English, she had been
married 10 times and in turn ran away
from each of her husbands carrying off
everything upon which she could lay her
hands.
Once before she was condemned to ST.
BERN, but had not been there long before
the chief overseer fell victim to her wiles,
married her and went off to Constantine
pie. But after few months his wife bolt
ed and soon after was recognized in Mos
COW by police official, who proceeded to
arrest her.
In response to her urgent pleadings how
ever, he delayed marching her off upon the
spot, and, like the rest, speedily succumbed
to her destinations, with the result that the
woman again escaped and lived some two
years in Russia unmolested.
But her sixteenth husband after she had
made off with the bulk of his worldly pos
sessions, finding out who she really was
speedily landed her in Jail, where the law
yer intrusted with her defense had an op
portunity of approaching her skill as q
pickpocket. When he went to see her il
her cell, she presented him with gold
watch and chain as token of her gratitud,
for his efforts in her cause. Feeling in hi.

watch and chain were his own,-Londor

Vast and populous as China, is the expe-
rience Of the present century shows that
she is weak for aggressive purposes. She
has not the hold on territory adjacent to
her borders which she could claim hun.
dred years ago. European nations are
pressing on her, both on the south and on
the north. She has been forced to cede a
portion of her territory to England, and
she has been compelled to avail herself Of
the help of Englishmen, both for civil. ad-
ministration and for military command.
All these things show that an expansion
of the Chinese race does not necessarily in
yolve an extension of Chinese dominion.
On the contrary, they tend to prove that it
is the order introduced by European admin.
stration which leads to the multiplication
of these industrious people, and there is
therefore at least as much ground for say
ing that, though Borneo, Sumatra and New
Guinea and the great islands of the eastern
archipelago may be ultimately peopled by
yellow races, they will be governed by the
white races as for believing that "A new
Chinese empire is in process Of formation.
A Chinese India may, in other words, be
developed in these great and fertile islands.

include seedlings raised in this country, but
