KEEPING QUIET.

KEEPING QUIET.
A Berlin dispatch to the Times SAYS:
The semi-official press maintains a
complete silence respecting the letters
OF Queen Victoria and Emperor Will
lam. The Kolnische Zeitung under
the heading, Peace With Dishonor.'
ransachs the dictionary to heap abuse
on england, DR.. Jameson ard the Uit-
landerS, but the press bureau of the
fcreign office may be left to reconcile
this sort CT language with the official
assurances that the government only
desires an amicable solution of the diff
ficuIties."
Theodore Barth, an influential mem
Der of the reichstag, writes in the Ma
ton warning Germany that only France
will gain by the Anglo-German quar-
rel, and that England is only doing
her duty in protecting the interests of
her subjects. The Times has a dis
patch from Vienna which says: THE
rumors of an alliance between Eng
land, France and Russia depressed
the bourse. 1t was a trifiing incident,
but 1t should serve as warning that
the drelbund cannot afford to be in
different to England's attitude"
A POWERFUL TRIO.
The Chronicle has an editorial sup
porting an English alliance with
France and Russia. The Daily News,
as is customary with that paper, con-
demns the Chartered South Africa COM
pany, but admits that Englishmen are
pleased to testify in any way to their
regard for America.
Therefore" says the Daily News,
I'VE are glad of Mr.. Chamberlain's re-
sponse to Ambassador Bayard."
Arguing in similar strain the Times
says: 1T may be disagreeable to re-
open negotiations with Venezuela, but
surely we are willing to make a senti-
mental sacrifice in order to retain the
friendship of the United States
The poem by Alfred Austin, the new
poet laureate, entitled "Jamesons s
Ride" was recited tonight on the stage
of the Alhambra Music hall by an actor
dressed in an Uitlander costume. The
audience cheered repeatedly.

NEW YORK, Jan. 13.-A local paper
says: The report today that J. P Nor
gan & Co., who are financially inter-
ested in the Reading railroad, had be-
come interested in the Baltimore &
Ohio, gave rise to the belief that the
finances of the B. & O., the Reading,
the Jersey Central and other roads
have passed under the control of a
syndicate of bankers who will in the
future manage the roads in a single
interest.
Mr.. Morgan declined to admit that
his reply was equivalent to saying that
he was interested financially in the
road. In fact, the belief that Morgan
& Co., are backing the reorganized B.

PREPARING TO FIGHT.

The first feeling of assurance over
the better situation of the relations
with Germany is met by notes of warn
ing that there are still seeds for pos
sible rancor and danger in the situa-
ton in the Transvaal, and that the
Venezuelan question is, after ALL not
yet settled, nor any basis agreed upon
for it's settlement. Interest in the
great naval preparations continues to
absorb the public mind. A report which
has been circulated to the effect that
the government intends to mobilize the
volunteer forces is denied tonight, but
it is certain that appeals from the war
office have recently been sent by cir
cular to the commanders of ali the
volunteer regiments, asking them to
return the probable number of volun-
teers that could be mobilzed, and to
state the arrangements that would be
necessary for doing so. AT Woolwich,
below on-on-the-Thames, the
great arsenal, covering 100 acres Of
ground, is receiving constant addi-
tions to it's great store of naval mate
rial and the activity in all depart
ments there is unabated. The torpedo
the men in that department are work
ing many hours over time. The tor
pedoes, as fast as manpfactured, are
sent to Portsmouth and Dover, the for
mer the principal naval station of
England with a fortified harbor that
will float the whole of the English navy,
and the chief port of communication
between England and the continent
The government intends, it is an
nounced, to have these well supplied
with torpedo boats and with torpedo
destroyers.
One feature of the war scare which
is much dwelt on here is the harm it
has done to German trade. German
importing houses here announce that
there has been big decrease in their
orders since the scare. The orders of
one big fancy goods firm have de-
creased 60 per cent. 1t is feared that
the quarrel will thus result in a per-
manent injury to trade.

original Chautauqua Assembly, Aug
6, 1895 said:
''The coming woman will not be
cast in one mold. The type of the sex
will be the crystal, rejecting light
from many polished sides. In this
infinite variety there are some types
that never can be lost. The woman
who is loving end self-sacrifcing, the
home-making woman, is not going to
vanish from the earth, but she is
learning in these days and will learn
still more efectually in the years to
come, that the best thought for Others
means also taking thought for herself
that the best care for others means al
so taking care for herself; and she is
taking of herself in the developing oil
her physical well-being, in the filling
out of all sides of her nature, and in
becoming more clearheaded, wiser
thoughted, a better companion and
guide.

MEsi FIFTEEN INCHES HIGH.

What a French Statistician Says Will Be
Seen Earth i, Tive Thousand Years.
A French statistician, who has been
studying the military and other records
with view of determining the height
of men at different periods, has reached
some wonderful results. He has not
only solved some perplexing problems
in regard to the past of the human race,
but is also enabled to calculate its fu-
ture and to determine the exact period
when man will disappear from the
earth. The recorded facts extend over
nearly three centuries 1t is found that
in 1910 the average height Of man in
Europe was LIS meters, or say five feet
nine inches. In 1890 it was five feet six
inches. In 1920 it was five feet five
inches and a fraction. At the present
time it is five feet three and three
fourths inches. 1t is easy to deduce
from these figures rate of regular and
gradual decline in human stature, and
then apply this, working backward and
forward to the past and to the future.
BY this calculation it is determined that
the stature of the first men attained the
surprising average VI SlACccu lieu uluC
inches. Truly, there were giants on
the earth in those days. The race had
already deteriorated in the days of Og,
and Goliath was quite degenerate Off
spring of the giants. Coming down to
later times, we find that at the beginning
of our era the average height of man
was nine feet, and in the time of Charlie
magne it was eight feet eight inches.
But the most astonishing result of this
scientific study comes from the applica-
ton of the same memorable law of
diminution to the future. The calcula-
ton shows that by the year 1000 A. d.
the stature of the average man will be
reduced to fifteen inches. At that epoch
there will be only Lilliputians on the
face of the earth. And the conclusion
of the learned statistician is irresistible:
that ''the end of the world will Ger.
tainly arrive, for the inhabitants will
have become so small that they will
finally disappear '--''fnish by disap-
pearing''-as the French lido Expresses
it-''from the terrestrial 81 ,be.''

Home, Sweet Home.

cherished homes by casting ballot
