Louis came back in half an hour with

On the third day. sitting in an easy

THE ISL AND OF LUZON.

The philippine archipelago is COM
posed or about 400 islands. They
are divided into three groups, the
northern, the central and the south
ern. Luzon is the most northern OF
the north group and it is also the
largest of the islands in tile archipel-
ago, containing, in fact, nearly one
third OF the land arel. AS compared
with the State of Ohio, LuZ,n has an
area Of 1881 square miles, against
4l,O60 for OHIO. The popu'atIou Of
Ohio in 1897 was 3,672.3l6. The pop
ulaLion ri LuZpn is little over 3.COO,-
600. Manila is larger than either
Cincinnati or Clevelnnd.and although
Ohio has more inland cities than Lu-
zon it has uone as large us the chief
interior business center of Luzor.
Manila WAS founded in 1911 and in
1880 wall was constructed which
still remains IN "A good state Of p: CO.
erva'Ion. The population within the
wall I'll ror lon has remained ut about
14,U0O for centuries. but the city in
recent years has included the suburbs
which are separated from the city
proper by streets, which gives it il
total population of over 3Un.t 10 and
the county" or district has IL popu-
lation of 2UJ,U00, making the puLula-
ton Of Manila and the adjacent coun.

nection it might be well to observe
that first class leper ho<l it'll has
been maintained for years mile and
half from the center OF Manila and
at last accounts lao patients are wait
ing to be gathered to their fathers.
The school system of the island ia

Taunton county is to OHIO. EXCEPT
that the barbarian Tagolus persist in
playing upon the TANKS Of our army
almost within gun shot of Manila.
The brains, the wealth and the cul.
ture in Luz III belong to the MALAY
tribes and perhaps it will not offend
those who are trying to beneticently
assimilate these tribes to observe that
they sprang from the same root race,

that they have the came inbred love

Judge Wheaton A.

As soon as the argument was completed, the judge addressed the iurymen in this peculiar manner: "Gentlemen of the jury, the prosecut- ing attorney has completed his argu- ment; wake up and listen to the in- struetions of the court.

The only vehicle l could get at the station was a ramshache buggy driven by an old darky, and as we snailed I'D the road I amused myself by pumping him about people and things. Finally 1t occurred to me 10 get some pointers on the best place to lodge Look here, uncle. I said where do folks generally hang out here? The old man gave sudden start and glared at me with evident apprehension. Well, boss, he replied in d hoarse whisper. they mos gen erly hangs ont on that thar big ches'- nut tree wonder, second linn rum th' bottom.

Substance Left by Acetylene Gas Makes
 the Finest Black Ink.
 The flame of acetylene gas has been found to furnish soot which is espe- cially valuable in the color industry. When such gas is burned with smok- ing flame the result is the production of three or four times as great quan- tity of soot as is the case with mineral oils. Moreover, 1t is very light i'll weight and exhibits an absolutely black color without tinge of brown and has none of the tarry admixtures or other substances that characteristic ally appear in lampblack The sub stance is likewise noted for being very bulky and is found to be admirably adapted for India ink and the colors of fine inks for such Photographic work as requires a positive black. It is now being manufactured in France by q patented process, almost absolute pur- ity of color and texture being obtained at a comparatively small cost.

\ New Ruskin Story.

A characteristic new Ruskin story the accuracy of which is vouched for by the Bookman, is as follows: A cer- tain person in this country sent a friend of his in England an American edition of Ruskin's works. They were seized by the customs authorities, of course, and were in peril of confsea- ton, when the. consignee learned that If he could procure a letter from Mr. Ruskin allowing she books to pass into England the customs would re- lease them. Accordingly q letter of request was sent to Mr. Ruskin. who replied promptly and with character istic verve as follows: Sir: I do not see that your friends desire to give you a present &x my expense is any apology for your intrusion upon me. Yours, etc, John Ruskin." The books came back to America, but in spite of very tempting offers the recipient of MT. Ruskin's curt reply refuses to part with the autograph.
