Berlin, June 10-The cession of the
South Sea islands to Germany focused
attention during the week. A curious
feature was that while on receipt or
the news the press, as we'll as every
body else, at first expressed satisfac-
ton, this changed radically as the
week advanced and the terms of the
bargain became known. Not only did
the radical and socialist press severely
criticize the terms as eXorbitant ana
far beyond the value of the islands,
but a large portion of the press reflect
ing the views of other parties did the
same. Prince BiSmarck'S saying in 1875,
characterizing the Carolines as lum-
PEREZ is quoted. According to the lat
est official statistics, German trade in
the islands for several years has not
exceeded 200 marks yearly, and no Ger
man exports have been sold there for
some time.
After listening to the statements of
the minister of foreign affairs. Baron
Won Bulow, in the reichstag, the criti
cism became severe. The Frankfort
Zeitung says:
THE text of the agreement shows
that Spain retains all the advantages
of ownership, retains full liberty for
the clerical orders, has a coaling sta
ton in each group of the islands. and
is put commercially on the same foot
ing as Germany, while she merely cedes
to Germany the onus of the cost of the
administration and receives an exor
bitant price, which probably no other
power would have paid

to the correspondent here of the Asso-

see the reichstag pass the appropria-

majority, adding that the freisignes and
socialists will be the only parties to
vote against it, though the center might
make its approval conditional.
The bill for the appropriation Will
provide for the administration of the

The recent decision of q Michigan
court that the Michigan law against
the coloring of Oleomargarlne is void
shows how hard It is to frame law
that cannot be picked to pieces by
lawyers and judges determined to
prove 1t void. The court ruled against
the validity of the act on the ground
that the heading to the act was not
worded so that anyone reading the
headline would see that it referred to
the coloring of oleomargarine. The
title to the act reads: AN act to pro-
hibit and prevent Adulteration, Fraud
and Deception in the Manufacture and
Sale of Articles of Food and Drink
The court held that the coloring Of
ol2Umargarine, though forbidden by
the law, could not come under the
words Adulteration, Fraud or Decep-
ion, since all people know that the
g!eomargarinC is colored.
Some men make light of the efforts
20 stamp out tuberculosis. They claim
that the whole situation Is overdrawn,
and that there is really little tubercu-
ICs.s among cur cattle-not enough to
make ii worth while to worry over 1t.
Yet the slaughter Of tuDerculous cattle
is constantly going on. We believe
that il some Of these sceptics will
visit the Union stock Yards, Chicago,
when the slaughter of tubctculous cat
tie is proceeding they will never again
oppose measures tended to eradicate
the disease, and will henceforth have
confidence in the tuberculin test.
Among the cows slaughtered last week
were twelve from n dairy herd that
supplies milk to Downers Grove, Ill,
| The owner had thirty-five COWS and
desired the tuberculin test applied to
them, and IN fact paid private yeter-
/ marian to 90 the work. Out of the
! thirtyfve cows tested twelve reacted.
On slaughter three of these were found
| to be only slightly affected, and their
! flesh was passed for food. The other
nine were so badly diseased that they
were sent to the rendering tank,to be
made into fertilizer. The lungs of these
animals were yellow with tubercles,
masses OF pus. One of the cows was
so badly diseased that when the lung
was cut into the pus spurted foot and
the stencil was very offensive. To use
a common term, this COW was rotten
inside" Yet the milk from them had
been used for long time by the peo-
pie of Downer's Grove. Fortunately
the udders of all these cows showed no
signs Of being tuberculous, and this
would tend to reduce the danger Yet
to say there is no danger in the milk
from such cows is going too far. The
query naturally arises in ones mind:
If this one herd had over 81 per cent
of tuberculous COWS in it, how about
the other herds that are supplying milk
! to Chicago? Is it likely that this was
the only herd affected by the dreadful
disease? The answer can be given
on general principles. There must he
numerous herds supplying milk to Chi
cago where tuberculosis has obtained
firm foothold. More than that, an
examination Of these herds would sho"
: many affected udders.

The largest bell in the world is in a

China. 1t is eighteen feet high and
forty-five feet in circumference and is
OF solid bronze. 1t is one of eight great
bells which were cast by command OF
the Emperor Yunglo about A. D. 400,
and is said to have cost the lives OF
eight men, who were killed during the
process OF casting. The whole bell,
both inside and out, is covered with an
inscription in embossed Chinese char
acters about half an inch long, COW
ering even the handle, the total number
being $4,000. The characters tell a
single story-one of the Chinese clas-
