Silently, if not secretly. the English
government has raised the forces at
the Cape of Good Hope from under
2.00O 10 over 5000 men. The ordinary
force ~ the cape was a battalion of
infantry ard 2 detachment of artil
lery. Since the Boer trouble broke out,
drafts from India, supposed to be go
ing home, have gradually been stopped
at the cape, and a number of them
have been sent on to Natal. The Trans
Vaal government is restless and con-
cerned under this increase of British
preparations, which are oStenSibly
based on the necessity of meeting con-
tingencies in Rhodesia. The relations
between the Boer government and
England are practically those of con-
tinuous mutual distrust and latent en-
nifty.
The Canadian premier. NJ. Laurier,
is expected in London, accompanied by
Sir Richard Cartwright, minister of
finance, next spring. The questions of
assisted emigration, fast mail service
and imperial aid towards charging the
defense works on the Pacific and At

the leading topics discussed between
the Canadian ministers and Mr.. Cham
berlain.
It is whispered in prominent theatre
cal quarters that the high salaries now
received By leading actors and act
resses are menaced with ignoble dimu-
ton. The profession is getting over
stocked and eminent popular artists
are finding themselves too frequently
at liberty" for prolonged periods.
Among the actresses who are at pres
ent politely announced as resting
are Mrs. Patrick Campbell Miss Eve
Ign Willard. Miss Elizabeth Robbins,
Miss Janet a Church. Miss Marian
Terry, Miss Lily Hamburg and Mrs
Bernard Beer. Miss Willard has been
''reciting" at ballad concerts and Mrs.
Campbell has been giving q reading at
81. James hall. In addition, Miss
Campbell, Miss Robins and Miss
Church have been playing at this
weeks matinees OF Ibsen's Little
Eyolf." Their appearance has been
in the nature of a gracious interven-
ton, not permanent engagement. The
high sums still demanded by these
artists has something to do with their
lack OF employment. The days are
gone when a really capable actor or
actress was considered paid with G1OO
per week and the days are going when
they can insist upon getting $50 per
week.

MILK JARS,
The Origin of Package That Is Now
in Common Use.

The Origin of Package That Is Now
in Common Use.
Milk jars, or bottles, now so COM
monty used, were introduced about
Is years ago. A gentleman farmer
of Litchfeld, Conn, a man of wealth,
who owned blooded cows, finding,
with the increase of his stock, his
milk supply growing beyond his own
needs, decided to sell the surplus.
He desired to put up his milk in some
distinctive form, and came to New
York to the headquarters here of
glass works, and asked to have got
up for him some kind Of glass pack
age that would be suitable for the
purpose and convenient for shipping.
A jar was produced that was sub
stantially similar in form to the one
now in use. The first jars were pro-
vided with glass shoppers; these were
found to break too easily, and a
metal stopper was soon substituted.
This form of package for milk at
once became popular. The owner of
the farm for which the milk jar was
first made turned his farm over to a
stock company, which increased its
production greatly. 1t still remains
a large establishment and one whose
dairy products are well known.
Many other milk producers
adopted the milk jar, and its general
use extended rapidly. Probably at
least Is per cent. OF the milk for
family use is delivered now in
bottles. There are millions Of bottles
in constant use, and the number
produced annually to make good the
breakage and to supply the increas-
ing demand is about 10000 gross

Europe's Stock of Gold.

OF this the Imperial Bank of Russia

Of France 1857, 400, 900, the Bank of

600. The gold comes from the Amer
lean monetary circulation and from
the production of the gold mines.
At the end of 1895 the Bank of
France and the Imperial Bank of
Russia between them held $776, 6O0,-
600 in gold, a little more than half
the stock of gold in the European
banks, and this does not include the

Taking Without a Tongue.

Ability to talk without a tongue
seems a paradox, but a Bradford
Pa.) doctor is evidence in his own
person that it is possible. DR.. A.
NJ. Williams was afflicted with a dis
ease which rendered necessary the
removal of the entire tongue, the
left tonsil, and some neighboring
glands. With these gone, according
to general belief, speech would be
impossible. Yet DR.. Williams "can
speak so as to be fairly well under
stood" correspondent of the Phila-
delphia Ledger reports, and he has
expectations that within a short
time his speech will greatly i'm
prove. In studying out the subject
of speech the doctor discovered that
persons are fright" or cleft" in the
use of the organs of the mouth and
throat, as they are in the use of the
hands. In his own case he was
'left" in the use of the mouth and
throat muscles--a circumstance
which makes his ability to talk the
more remarkable, because some of
the organs of the left side had been
removed with the tongue. He is in
clined to the theory that, while the
preferred use of the right or left
hand is generally case Of education
or choice, the involuntary discrimi-
nation which leads to the use OF one
set of throat muscles is in most
cases the result of heredity.
