When Mr.. Rhodes visited London in
the late autumn he found time to ar
range for memorial to the gallant
men who died with Wilson when Lo-
bengula turned at bay. The remains
of the band were found where they had
fallen rifle in hand. Mr.. Rhodes had
them collected and conveyed distance
of 200 miles for sepulchre in the neigh
borhood of one of the old temples Of
Central Africa. While in London he
commissioned a well-known sculptor
to cut medallion portraits of each of
the thirty-two men. It is Intended,
when these are completed, that they
shall be set in a stone wall surround

Remarkable Case OF Suspended AnInna-

There is an excited but happy father
and mother in Plttsgrove, N. j., and
a wondering child and a number Of as

Advertiser. The parents are happy
because their baby was given back to
them apparently from the dead. No
body is wondering its mother clasps it
to her breast and cries over 1t half
a dozen times a day, and the neighbors
are astonished to think that doctor
and experienced nurse should lay the
child out for burial when 1t was alive.
The case Is q remarkable one of sus-
pended animation. To all appearances
the child died, and then, after being
unconscious nearly twelve hours, 1t

to Louis Erdner. Early Tuesday morn.
ing 1t was taken sick and a physician
was summoned. The doctor treated
the little one, but after a time pro-
nounced 1t dead. The body was laid
on a cot and covered with a sheet.
The mother then sent word to her hus-
band, who was at work couple Of
miles from home. On his way to the
house in the evening Erdner stopped
at the Office Of Undertaken Evans and
engaged him to care for the body. The
father selected the coffin and made all
the arrangements for the funeral,
About two hours later the undertaken
with an ice box, arrived at the house,
Instead Of finding grief-strlcken fam
lily the undertaken found an excited
but joyful one. Shortly after the re-
turn Of the father the child, which had
previously been cold, showed signs Of
life and again became warm. The
doctor was summoned in haste, and he
with but little effort restored the child.
1t was weak and pale all night, but
yesterday it seemed to recover all Of
its health and was crawling about the
rooms as though nothing unusual had
happened.

The secret Of high social development
and the maintenance Of dense popu-

Moreover, this is the secret of that

ence which is able to endure the ac-

world, and to survive the rally from
crop failures and temporary closing

WAGES THE WORLD OVER.
Enormous Variations from State to state
and Country to Country

'~"'@NN W.
and Country to Country.
1t is popularity supposed that the i'm
mutable law of supply and demand
operating throughout country makes
the wages for the same labor uniform
in every part of it, as q dearth of labor
in any one place cannot be of long dura-
ton while men are employed elsewhere.
A recent supplementary bulletin Of the
manufactures Of the United States,
however, shows this general view to
be false. In Colorado the average year.
ly earnings of a manufacturing COM
pany was $720; in Montana, $722; in
Nevada, Sis; and in Wyoming, $768.
In states where colored labor is abund-
ant the total average earnings are much
less. In Alabama the average is $37G;
in Mississippi, $310; in North Carolina,
$216; in Georgia, 1907, and in South
Carolina, 1857. In New York the aver
age is $3.50; in Pennsylvania, $492; in
Ohio, $479 and in Massachusetts, $494.
When it is considered to what extent
the female and child labor enters into
the factory operations in New York the
figures are surprisingly high. The total
wages paid in New York manufacture
ing enterprises amount in ordinary
years to $5OO,O0O,OO0 England stands
at the head in Europe as the best mar
ket for labor. Scotland and France
are little behind her. Then there is
a heavy drop until Austria, the Neither
lands and Belgium are reached; the
scale goes still lower in Germany,
where the rate is the same as in Ire
land. Spain, Sweden, Russia, and Italy
follow here in the order given. Ac-
cording to the table of Bodio, an Italian
authority, glassblowers are the best
paid mechanics in Italy, and paper
makers the poorest. The rate Of wages
in Italy, low as it is now, was still
lower twenty-five years ago. In Eng
land the increase in the rate Of wages
has been about twenty per cent in five
years. A French bricklayer now gets
fifty per cent more wages than were
paid for his work in France forty
years ago.

ical creature which, according to their

side of all thunder clouds If the regu-

culiar to such phenomena they take
1t as token that the great spirit is
pleased with their past dongs. II,

nations be frequent and violent they
are sure that the god Of the elements
is displeased and Immediately engage
themselves in all sorts of ludicrous
lamentations for the purpose Of
arighting matters. Lightning is to
them the result Of the air whale
gnashing his teeth together and thus
striking fire, Another popularity of
this primitive people lies in the fact
that they will not partake of food
while the thunder cloud is in sight,
fearing that the air whale will pounce
upon and deyour them for such irrev-
erence.

"Ringing" Trees.

Architects will remember that tho
old books on building advise that the
trees intended to bo cut for timber
should have ring of bark cut out
around the trunk in the latter part of
the winter preceding the autumn sea-
SOU in which they are to be felled.
This advice seems to have been founded
on experience, but 80 far as we know it
Is mover followed in modern times.
Very recently, however, M. Mer of
the great forest school of Nancy, in
answering an inquiry as to the best
means for preserving wooden telc-
graph poles from the ravages of In
sects. explains the effect of "ringing"
growing trees in a very interesting
manner. According to NJ. Mer tree
intended to be used for a
telegraph pole should bo cut
in the autumn and during the pre-
ceding winter should have ring
cut out of the bark, down 10 tho
wood, near the upper part of the
trunk. If this is done the ascent OF
the sap in the spring is prevented, us
it is we'll known that the sap circu-
lates just under the bark. The tree,
nevertheless, grows, consuming as
nutriment the starch grains laid up in
the sapwood When the seasons
growth is over, the starch in tho sap
wood is gone but, as fresh sap has
not been allowed 10 circulate, no new
starch has been deposited in its place
to supply the next seasons growth,
and when the tree is felled its tissues
contain no starch aud consequently no
food for the insects which feed upon
wull and which, according TO Nj.
MGR, only cat the wood for the starch
they find ia it. To inject wood with
sulphate Of copper, as is often done,
NJ. Mer says helps to complete its
protection, bat only ON condition that
the starch is first removed as lac
suggests. American Architect.
