LONDON, Dec. 30.-A correspondent
of The Globe, writing from Hong Kong
on Nov. %, says: 1t will be a great mis-
fortune if, through hasty action or ig-
norance eff the actual state of affairs,
the Filipino natives rise against the
Americans Hitherto, although the
Americans have often given great
proyocation, the Filipinos have shown
great foFebearance and strong dislike
to come to blows. They do not want to
fight, and if the Americans only meet
them half way all will go well. There
is much TO be gained by just, states
manlike settlement with the natives,
while there will undoubtedly be great
losses through continuance of arbi-
trary treatment. The just aspirations
of the people ought to be taken into
consideration, and believe they would
be if only the proper men are sent out
by the president to settle the question
of the future government Of
the islands on the spot, after
proper deliberation and very care

leaders have been loyal to the Amer

to consider the overtures of Germany

When Prince Henry visited Hong
Kong, he caused the Filipino leaders
there to visit him, and informed them
that he was empowered to promise the
natives full recognition Of their national
if they would cede to Ger
many, as quid pro quo, small coal

made similar advances, and in each
case the reply was "We cannot settle
anything with you. The Americans
promised us independence and we wish
to wait and see what the Americans
will do for us"

He was q wee little man, only years

complaining than any one knew, for
though he was only baby he had trials
to bear. The family had gone to new
country in the far west, the mamma,
this little man, and the sister, little
older. 1t was very new country, very
different from the city in the east
where they had left many friends, rela-
tives and, nearest Of all, dear old
grandmother. The mamma was so busy
in her new home that she had little
time for the babies except to see that
they were clean and we'll fed. So they
were lonesome, sometimes, as mamma
found out one day in a way that
brought the tears TO her eyes.
The little S-year-old had been very
busy and very quiet making big hole
IN the ground with such earnestness Of
purpose that she went to see what was
being done.
The hole was completed when she
reached the spot and in it had been
placed something that she took out and
examined with wondering curiosity. 1t

hole in the ground-an old daguerreo-

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Talk

! LONDON, Dec. 3O.-A dlsquletlng stu
alton is developing at Johannesburg.
! According to latest advices from there,
the place is seething with discomfort as
on the eve of the Jameson raid, in con-
sequence of recent and proposed meas
ures which the Uitlanders regard as a
! fresh series of impositions. In addition
racial animosities are intensifying at the
vexatiOus treatment of the British In
dams and Cape s'boys" which is rousing
much bitterness. There was serious
development last week, when Boer
policeman murdered an Englishman
named Edgar, entering the latter's
house and shooting him. The police
man was arrested upon the charge, but
upon the following day the charge was
reduced to one of nanslaughter and the
policeman was allowed his liberty on
bail. The British agent demanded
restitution of the cha "ge Of murder, and
a mass meeting which was attended by
5000 Uitlanders was held at Johannes
burg on Sunday to protest against
the murder of Edgar and to present the
British consul with strongly worded
petition to the queen, reciting the
wrongs of the Uitlanders, appealing for
protection and demanding such other
steps as may be found necessary to ''ter-
inmate the existing intolerable state of
affairs.
There were no speeches, owing to the
laws prohibiting political gatherings.
The demonstration was very impressive.
The petition was presented to the con-
sal on the balcony of the consulate, the
whole multitude signifying assent by
uplifting their hands. References to
the Boer policeman elected shouts of
'lynch him" The meeting, however,
was peaceful, with the exception Of a
slight ARRAY with the police,at it's con-
clusiOn.
Newspapers Are VenOmOus.
The newspapers publish venomous ar
tieles on the subject. The Boer organ,
the Rand Post, on Wednesday discussed
the prospect of war with Great Britain,
and advised that ON the first British act |
of war the women and children at |
Johannesburg be given "a hours to leave,
and the whole place be then RACED, aud

The muscles, in common with all the
organs of the body, have their stages Of
development and decline. Our physical
strength increases up to a certain age
and then decreases. Tests of the strength
of several thousands of people have been
made by means Of a dynamometer

are given as the average figures for the
white race:
The lifting power" of a youth Of II
years is $50 pounds. In his twentieth
year this increases to $50 pounds, and
in the thirtieth and thirty first years it
reaches it's height, $50 pounds. At the
end Of the thirty first year the strength
begins to deolire, very slowly at first.
By the fortieth year it has decreased
eight pounds, and this diminution con-
tinues at a slightly increasing rate until
the fifeieth year is reached, when the
figure is $50 pounds.
After this period the strength fails
more and more rapidly until the weak
ness of old age is reached. 1t is not pos
sible to give statistics Of the decline of
