COMPULSORY CREMATION.
An Impoa ant Measure Thai Is Nov Pending In
he British Parliament.

In England the idea o. making Gre
nation compulsory Is being earnestly
pressed, with view OF cheapening the
cost of the disposal Of dead bodies and
upon the higher ground Of sanitation.
= bill In Parliament looking 10 this end
has passed the committee and the first
reading, with an amendment that
causes II 20 apply only 20 certain large
cities and to defined conditions of So
ciety in them.
IL is 25 years since the first organiza-
ton was made in Great Britain TO es-
tabIlsh a crematorium. says the Phila-
delphla Times. IL took six years 10 get
one built, and II was four years before
an incineratlon took place: but from the
date OF it's first use, that Is to say. Is
years ago, the number OF incinerations
has increased rapidly, so that several
thousand bodies were cremated last
year. Aside from the sentimental
phase of the matter. one of the most
potent obstrucuons thrown in the way
OF the society that promoted the plans
was that cremation could be used 10 de-
stroy the evidence OF crime. This OBJ
lection was met by the society assum-
ing the obligation TO investigate the
conditions of death in the case OF every
body for which application for incin-
eratlon should be mede. The prejudices
were finally overcome. as may be seen
by the fact that the proposed legislA-
tion includes a provision that. I'm the
whole kingdom cremation should be
obligatory in cases where death is
due 10 transmissible diseases as
smallpox, scarlet fever, and tuber-
culosis. The measure IS meeting no
considerable opposition. and the bill
viii probably pass This is meeting the
question involved in a wise and broad
spirit.

influence for good is more widely felt.
The work of beautifying and inn
proving n village is peculiarly appro-
PIRATE for women. They aim, not only
TO make the aspect of the town more
attractive. but to improve the health
and morals as well. The bettered sani-
tary condition of the many small towns
taken in hand by these societies pro-
claims the work to be philanthropic as
well as aesthetic.
THE object of these societies is the
promotion Of better sanitary regula-
tions, cleaner streets, better roads, the
Improvement and ornamentetion of
grounds and parks. and the encourage
ment and assistance. in every practi-
cal way, of whatever may promote
public convenience and health. thus
rendering the towns more desirable as
places of residence.
These societies cultivate "A general
friendly feeling. they foster public spir-
il and they do much TO break the mo-
notony OF the life of small communi-
ties They make life better worth liv-
ing and real estate better worth buying
They attract people of taste and means

PROFITS FROM THE SEA.
Estimate Of Value Of Fisheries proiucl Of The
NoKh Sea Per Square Nile.

The average value OF the product OF
agricultural lands per acre or square
mile is often computed, but probably
few OF us have seen similar computa-
tions relating 10 the sea. Prof. Heu-
sens. writing i'm the German geagra-
phlcal periodical, Globus. has figured
out an average of this sort for the
North Sea which is well known to be
one OF the worlds great sources of
value derived from fisheries He saws
the value of fish caught in the North
Sea yearly by the countries bordering
IL is about 200 600. The yearly catch
is never known 10 be less than $S7. 500 =
600 nor more than $ij0O0.0O0. The
North Sea. including the Skager Rak
or gulf between the southern SDart Of
Norway and Sweden, has an area OF
225. .SS4 square miles, and. therefore, the
average value OF the North Sea fish
cries each yea is slS.lJ for every
square mile OF the sea. England and
Scotland take the lion share OF the
wealth OF these waters the annual
value OF the English fisheries being
about $2l l.250 coo; Scotland. $3.50, 000.
Holland. $4. 10000 France. 50 i20. 900;
Germany, 81, 800, 900: Norway. $3.50. 900;
Belgium, 100000; Denmark 100000.
Thus all the nations around the
North Sea share i'm the wealth II yields
and it gives some idea Of the direct
monetary value OF this great watery
waste TO know that every square mile

Conspicuous among the many lines of

that OF the Village Improvement Socie-

these societies is so closely connected
with the general welfare that all must

and hope for a multiplicity OF the same.
a well known writer I'm a recent mag

BIG SHIPS AND SWIFT ONES.
AMERICAS Coming Share in ihs Making Of Them

For years the Great Eastern held the
record for size, and il was thought that
she was too large to be Of service-eX-
cept for the one thing that has made
her famous for all time, the laying OF
the first Atlantic cable. But now
comes the Oceanic, successfully
launched last January, and dwarfs the
former giant. The Great Eastern was
$50 feet long the Oceanic Is I0i-three
city blocks! The Oceanic needs twenty
two feet of water TO float her, even
when unloSded; fifteen and halt feet
sutIiced for the Great Eastern The
latter vessel displaced an amount OF
water weighing l1,S44 tons The new
ship adds $500 tons to these figures.
She is 6S feet wide and 40 feet deep.
The Oceanic, according to the ST.
Nicholas is not expected to be very
speedy. In which she differs from the
Hai-Lung, torpedo boat des royef

ernment. This vessel made 4oS mliss
