Terrible Condition Of Natives Of Iubbcpoor,
India

Jubbulpocr, India, Feb. 10-On his way
TO this city, "a special corresponds mt,
who is examining into the famine situa-
ton in India, visited the poorhouses
of Bilasprr and Katnl. The inmates
were found TO be in a deplorable con-
cition, the buildings were overcrowded
and medical attendance was lacking
A man outside OF one OF them was dead
and another was dying. A girl years
OF age weighed only 10 pounds anc
seN eral adults were under Sc pounds in
Xeight. The skin in all cases was drawn
over the face, showing the outline OF
the skulls, and the limbs and joints had
the appearance OF those of articulat-
Ell skeletons That the condition OF
these people was pitiable was proven
by the immense migration to
the Assam teagardens. Six
teen hundred persons are drafted
there weekly, deserting their wives and
families.
Jubbulpoor is the worst part of central
India.
1t is estimated that the present famine
Is the greatest of the century and will
greatly surpass that Of 1876. both ir
area and severity. The famine belt ex.
tends to Bawalpindi and Belfary and is
1900 miles long and 400 miles wide.
This is apart from the scattered dis.
tricts.
In all the rice districts there is ne
chance Of a food supply until Septem.
Der. The government will thus be forced
to support nearly all the population
for six months and many of them fol
eight months. Whole villages are de.
serted
The governments policy at the first
was rather TO ignore the famine. II
Is now, however, alive to the danger,
and strenuous efforts are being made
to avert horrible disaster. But it will
have to recover lost time and owine
to the scarcity of the previous three
years the people will easily succumb.
Out of the 100000 inhabitants of Jub.
bulpoor, about 10000 are now receiving
relief.
BY the month of May this number will
be doubled.

INSPIRED THE STARVING.

How Libby Prisoners Received the
News OF Vicltaburg and Gettysburg.
In July, 1853, ended the memorable
siege of Vicksburg and marked also the
battle of Gettysburg. In Libby prison,
where it seemed as though the desper-
ately dark gloom could take no deeper
tinge, q group of 500 huddled together
on the morning Of July 6 discussing
the situation Two of their number
had just been taken out to be shot in re-
taliatlon for the killing of some confed-
crates somewhere. They knew that
the confederate forces were marching
north and that terrible battle had been
fought. They also knew that Grant
was reaching for Vicksburg, the key to
the Mississippi. They could hear moth
ing more, but feared the worst. About
noon of the eth Richmondpap
agled inside by faithful negro friend,
confirmed their worst fears. In start
ling headlines they read: "Meade De.
feated at Gettysburg" "irhe Northern
Army Fleeing to the Mountains"
"Grant Repplsed at Vicksburg," "The
Campaign Closed in Disaster"
The depression caused by this was
awful. The poor, emaciated fellows
broke down and cried like babies. They
lost all hope and one Of them has said
since; "There was not left in us
strength enoughto curse God and die
While In this condition later edition
of the same paper was brought in by
the same negro. Chaplain McCabe got
the paper, and, having a stronger voice
than the others, was delegated to read
them the later returns. He began at
the headlines;
Grant Has Captured Vicksburg and
Taken Thirty Thousand Prisoners"
meade Defeated at Gettysburg TAX,
ing Fourteen Thousand Prisoners"
The same shadow on the dial marked
the time Of the defeat of the confeder.
ates at Gettysburg and the surrender al
Yicksburg,
The revulsion of feeling was almost
too great to endure. The boys went
crazy with joy. They saw the begin.

Liquid AIR IN Commerce.

New methods of liquifying air at a
reduced cost have been invented In Ger.
many, and Mr.. de Kay, United States
consul at Berlin, mentions In his official
report some of the uses to which liquid
air may be put. Ono Of these is tor H.
Eliminating purposes. An illuminant
can be formed from liquid air by mix
ing it with ordinary air, in certain pro.
portions, while II Is passing back to It's
normal condition, Liquid air may also
serve as an explosive agent for various
purposes. AS a portable liquid, rich in
oxygen, it is suggested that 1t should
serve many purposes In manufactures
The price In Germany hos heretofore
been 1928 for five cubic meters (about
176h cubic feet) of air reduced to the
liquid condition, but Prot. Linde, Of
Munich, has invented o process where
by the cost has been brought down to
about sA cents per five cubic meters.
