Death OF Marc o ssozzaris.

Marco Bozzaris, who has been made
immortal by Fitz.Greene Halleck, &C.
quired more reputation by his death than
by his life. He was killed in 1923, in a
night attack made by $50 Suliotes upon
the camp of nearly 1000 Turkish troops,
close by the little village OF Karpensi,
not far from Missolonghi. The Turks
were taken completely by surprise. Not
anticipating any attack from the enemy,
there were no pickets stationed, and the
sentries on the outsk irts of the camp
seem to have been neglectful of their
duty, 80 that the Suliotes were in the
midst OF the Turks before it was known
that the enemy was at hand, and, strick-
EN- with panic, the entire advance guard
of the Turkish army fed back to the
main body. Bozzaris was killed in the
moment of his success. but no important
advantage resulted from the engagement

says the Minneapolis Journal, has been
passed upon by the supreme court of
Tennessee, which held that it Was not

Indeed, says the court, "if counsel have
tears at his command, it may he serious
ly questioned whether it is not his pro-
fessional duty to shed them when proper
occasion arises" The court did not pass
on the right Of the client to exhibit emo
ton at the size of the bill.

1t is not generally realized what vast
amount of money is put into circulation
with every quarterly dividend day, much
of which goes into new channels and for
new purposes, but recent statistics on
this subject compiled tor a New York
stock journal is rather an eye-opener. 1t
says that for the first quarter of this year
there was paid out on bonds having a par
value of 1913, 1897 ,0S3, the amount OF such
interest aggregating 20,797 ,977 as com
pared with 500, ,290 last year, SIS, 7O4,
63l in 1895, $lS,934 ,43S in 1894 and $2l ;
$50, l27 in 1893. In addition to the above,
dividends were declared on stocks having
par value of 1907 ,066 800, the amount
OF such dividends being SIC, 297, l0l, as
compared with Sl3,95l, $50 last year
1885, 1872 in 1895, Sll $685. 4S in 1894
and $l7,749 0S9 in 1898. Interest is also
paid on government bonds whose pan
value is $3.50, 636. 900, the amount of such
interest aggregating over s. millions

Under the auspices of the International
Statistical society, which started the
movement at its recent meeting at Berne,
Switzerland, an attempt will be made in
1900 to secure fairly accurate enumera-
ton of the population of the earth. We
have been accustomed to hear that popu-
lation set down at the roughly estimated
figure OF 800, 100000. But that figure
was fixed upon at time when the popu
lation OF the United States, for instance,
was only about half what il is at present
and since then not only our own but all
the great nations of the world, with the
possible exception OF France, have been
steadily increasing. 1t is believed that
the worlds population is now at least
100000, 600, divided according to the
statistical society, approximately as fol-
lows: Asia, 900.0OO,0O0; Europe, 40O,-
900, 1000; Africa, 100000, 600; North and
South America, l40,00O,00O. and Ocean
lea, 10000, 900. When it is remembered
that in nearly two-thirds OF the inhabited
portions OF the globe there never has been
an actual enumeration and that for
making such all the machinery will have
to be provided, it will strike every one
