The Second Ct,y I'm the world.

Now that the city of Brooklyn and
other suburban districts have been in.
corporated with the city of New York,
the latter in point OF population easily
takes rank as the second greatest city OF
the world. London, of course, comes
first with its great total offs 900, 900 souls
New York, or "Greater New York" as it
has been properly called, contains fully
three and quarter million souls, or
three-quarters of million more than
Paris, which has heretofore ranked as
the second city to London in point Of
size. The above estimate is taken from
an interesting article on Greater New
New York IN the New York Times. The
property valuation is $3.50 100000 and
the bonded Indebtedness is $2O5 $50 81
The city boundaries inclose a total area OF
800 square miles, the extreme length be.
ing 81 miles and the width Is miles 1t
is estimated that within the city limits
there are nearly 800 miles OF water front,
1000 miles of railways and $500 miles
of streets and roads. These figures are
the more remarkable if we remember
that they represent practically the growth
of single century, for the census OF 1900
shows that New York had then only co.
4S9 inhabitants, and it is certain that
Brooklyn with the other districts recently
included would at that time have made
hnf eli; obi j., 81 A.
the future there is no reason to suppose
that New York will ever lose its present
position. There is no other city, unless
it be Paris, that can be considered as a
rival for second place among the great
cities OF the world, and the comparative
youth and vigor Of the country that is
tributary to New York render it certain
that her rate of growth will be greater
than that of the French capital.
AS to the possibility of the capital Of
the western hemisphere becoming the
capital OF the world it is difficult to con-
lecture. The London of to-day will soon
have passed the six million mark, and
there is at present no observable sign OF
its growth being arrested. On the other
hand, it is adding to its numbers at the
rate of $4,000 year. and the rate of in
crease is steadily growing as the years
60 by. AS long as England is able to
maintain her supremacy, naval and COM
mercial, upon the seas, as long as she
can hold together that huge conglomera.
ton OF peoples and countries known az
the British Empire, binding them to the
mother isle with the strongest of all
bonds-those of commercial interest
London will continue to grow and its
people and wealth to multiply as in the
past. Should the dissolution OF the EN-
pire ever be brought about, and the
worlds commerce cease to pulsste from
London as it's center, We may look for
New York to take rank as the chief EN-.
porium of the world and ultimately as its
most wealthy and populous city.

Men who Make Cyanide of Potassium
Arc strangely Tempted 70 Eat IL.
There is factory in London that
makes only the deadliest poisons known
to chemistry. Last year it produced
1000 tons of cynaide potassium. Five
grains of this is sufficient to kill n nan.
In one room OF the factory visitor
found tons OF this deadly poison. 1t re-
sembles very closely white crystallized
sugar. The visitor remarked TO the
manager: 1T looks good enough TO

"Ah," replied the manager, gravely'
THAT is just one of the dangers we have
to guard against. For some ineNplica-
Gle reason cyanide of potassium eNer-
cises a remarkable fascination over the
men engaged in its manufacture. They
are haunted by q constant and ever-re-
curing desire toeatit. They are perfect
" alive to the fact, however, that to give
way to the craving would mean instant
death, and are consequently usually
able to resistit. utnOt always. Dur

Of our best and steadiest worlSmen have
committed suicide in this strange man
ner, impelled thereto apparently by no
cause save this mysterious, horrible
longing. I myself have felt the same
strange lust when 1 have been long ex-
posed to the cyanide fumes, and have
had to leave the works for time in con-
sequence. So we'll is this curious fact
recognized that there are always two
men at work together in this branch of

Apart from this remarkable infatua-
ton, which may he likened to the de-
sire experienced by many people when
standing on the brink of a precipice
to throw themselves down. the mann-
facture of potassium cyanide is not par
