THE FAMINE IN rND1A-ALmosT AS THIN AS HIS SHADOW.

OF America. The plague first manifest
ed itself at Bombay and at once led to
rioting and a wholesale exodus of the
European and well-to-do native popu-
lation. Over night business became
paralyzed, and in the space of As hours
the plague was carried to Karachi, Poo
ma and Bandra, where the migrating
hosts sought refuge. Hundreds of
deaths occur daily at Bombay and in the
camp of Andheri, located but a short
distance from the Indian metropolis.
The native physicians have nearly all
left, Bombay, silence prevails in the ia
NOUS bazaars, and nothing is left to
add life to the scene except the heroic
English doctors, who have remained at
their post to fight the pestilence, and
the British garrison which is called upon
10 maintain order among the frightened
and turbulent natives.
The bubonic plague is said, by med
zeal men, to be more terrible than
cholera. 1t affects the glands OF. the
neck, armpits, knees or the groin, and
is accompanied by high fever. The pain
endured by it's victims is excruciating
and strangely facilitating, death Civ
ing relief within "a or SO hours. Eighty
per cent. of those attacked succumb;
ten per cent. remain weakened for life,
and ten per cent recover completely.
Like other epidemics, the bubonic
plague thrives on filth, and is hard to
control. in communities where no at
tention is paid to sanitation. A peculiar
fRatura iS fha fha OarmS Of tho divoaca

affairs. After her husbands death the
countess lived for six years in the house
hold of Nine. Blavatsky, and became ia
miliar with the social and economic con-
ditions Of India, the alleged home Of
theosophy and other cesteric philoso-
phies.
According to her views, the stories OF
the sufferings of the people Of India
from famine and pestilence cannot be
exaggerated. They are, she says, des
perately poor and have absolutely no
resources, there being nothing In the
way of products in the northern Prov
inces but wheat, and nothing in the
south but rice. When there is drought
in the north there is no harvest, and
as the people cannot raise enough one
year to provide their bread for the next
there is intense suffering. When the
rains are excessive there is failure OF
the rice crop in the south, and then
misery and death stalk broadcast over
that region.
Government, thinks the countess, has
sucked the substance out Of India. If
a young English boy goes out theirs
and takes a position by the side of a
mature and capable Indian, the gov
eminent gives the boy fcnr times the
pay it gives the Indian for the same
service. And that one instance, she
thinks, illustrates the whole treatment
which the British Bureaucracy ac-
cords the people of India.
Reverting to the agricultural re-
sources of the country, the countess
lluded once more to the fact that in
the immense region known as North
India nothing but the wheat harvest

from one part Of the city to another.
Many of the British officials at Bombay
rare of the opinion that the only way
to eradicate the plague is to drive the
remaining natives from their quarters
and burn every building inhabited by
them. Distinction has proved entirely
useless. Tho native district could be
rebuilt in six weeks under proper sani-
tary conditions, and publication by
fire being the only effective method of
destroying the germs, the expense to be
incurred would really be a splendid
permanent investment.
Humanitarians in all countries are
at present engaged in sending relief
tD the Indian sufferers and, incidental
ly. discussing the causes which led up
to the present state of affairs. Among
them none is more competent to give
an intelligent Judgment than Coung
tess Constance de Wachtmeister, head
Of one Of the branches of the Theo-
sophical society, who is at this time
visiting friends in Chicago. The couu-
less was the most intimate friend of the
late Mime. BIavatsky, founder Of the
osophy. and is the widow of Count
Wachtmeister, who was for years a
Swedish diplomat of prominence, and at
ane time Sweden's minister Of foreign

DEVELOPMENT OF SCIENCE AND
THOUGHT. .'8.5 55ss2
From early times ii human history,
there has been q prevailing interest in m
the phenomena Of nature. Man has
been curious to know himself. his en-.
vironments, and the sources c 8 from.
which he has proceeded. During the.
present century. especially. there has.
been great INQUIRY as to the agency
by which All the visible results n} hns
man genius have been wrought The
whole present age is filed With a SOS
entiic spirit. The mind Of man iis no. y,
longer satisfied with the traditional
and imaginary views of the past and
it turns in quest of a truer knowledge.
of the evolution Of events concerning.
the human race. For centuries schol.
ars have been perplexing their minds
over this the greatest theme Of mod
ern inquiry. And the results Of their
years of patient labor have been a
great widening of the field of human
knowledge. They have We'd with.
each other in exhibiting the facts Of
nature and never before in history
have the minds Of men beenss so eager
to obtain a knowledge Of nature phe-
nomena. Althemore as scholars have.
wed with each other II their efforts in
scientitical research, science and phil
osophy have received great. impulse
by their investi atoms.
A hasty glance at the development
OF science and philosophy will show
that they have met with great difficult
ties in their development. At times
IN the history OF the human race it
mas seemed as tnough al progress OF
human intellect should be overcome
by gross ignorance. But despite all
the severe struggles which science and
philosophy have met with, they have
still continued to flourish. The true,
spirit OF progress was still there. The
densest darkness coulu not conceal
the bright rays OF intellectual light.
Ihey bore away all opposition. These
perlods OF darkness were the germi-,
na1lng season OF a more Hourlshing
growth which was to follow. Wherev-
er freedom OF thought has been sup
pressed, there has been intellectual
and moral decay, but wherever man
has been at liberty to think for Kim
self IN all matters, whether socia1, po-
htlcal or spiritual, there has been in
tel!ectual and moral growth.
