Could Make Iron and Steel.

.t has been reported to the British government that the making of iron and steel in India is entirely practic- able owing to the large deposits Of iron ore which are found in Madras and Bengal, a plentiful supply of na- tive coal, and limestone to be procured at small expense from Burmah. The cheap labor of India is also an i'm portant consideration, and if the plant were sufficiently large and located near Calcutta it is believed that the works would prove successful

the globes. A little while ago fisher
man near Villeneuve found one of
these globes, and with a sharp knife
opened it and extracted the letters.

of butter. Of which PIG were for export
and were Judged by foreign judges,
while the balance were Judged by Rus
slams. Two enormous ice refrigerators
held the butter and cheese, but of the
latter there were only few entries.
There are about 371a million cattle
IN Russia, which is only 20 head (of

average yearly milk yield is placed at
about 1850 pounds, or for every inhab-

total value of Russia's butter export is
placed at little over $2,SO0,O0O.
AS to the quality it varied greatly.

showed that the Russian taste was diff

The export butter was packed in fir

used.in all. About 20 per cent of this
butter was extra" or nearly so, while
10 per cent was "tallowy," oily" or

was shown in large or small boxes,
flrkins and even in hollow logs 60
twelve to fourteen inches long and ten
to twelve inches in diameter with or
without iron hoops. Yet parchment
paper was used in all.
About $50 entries were what must be
called sweet cream butter, the cream
evidently having beenSheated to a high
temperature and not ripened after

partly very lightly sailed. This was
chiefly intended for St. Petersburg and
Moscow. A cooked flavor seemed to be

OUR IMMIGRANTS.

Scientific Classification Of Those Who
Arc Coming to This Country.
The first step in statistical tabnli-
ton is classification. and classification
invariably starts from an assumption
Of real or supposed resemblance. Not
to dwell on such fundamental distinc-
tions as those Of color, race and ma
tionality, we encounter the more ype-
cial resemblances Of agreement in re-
ligious belief, agreement in industrial
preference, agreement in political con-
viction Gas shown in election returns).
similar susceptibility to emotionaltsm,
similar capacities for rational compre-
hension, similar imperfections Of ma
ture, which result in lives of crime or
pauperism. Remove from social Stats
tics this postulate that blood kinship
or mental resemblance between one So
cial unit and another is: the basis Of
social phenomena, and the statistics
themselves would cease to exist. Stat
istics reveal also the consciousness
which men have of their resemblances
and their differences. It Is statistically
known that the geographical distribu-
ton of nationalities is not accidental
or capricious. Immigrant Italians Ger
mans and Scandinavians find their way
to those parts of the country where
men of their own blood and speech are
already established. Intermarriages of
men and. women of different nationali-
ties are statistically known to be fire.
quent where no differences of religion
exist, and infrequent where different
nationalities profess different faiths.
The statistics of political elections are
quite as much statistics of the con-
seriousness Of kind as of differences Of
mental type itself. The most signifl-
cant fact of all, however, has still to
be named. 1t is this: From the first
known beginnings Of statistical re-
search to the present time every extern
sion of statistical inquiry has been in
large measure due to the conscious
ness of kind. The first statistical sur
veys of communities of which we have
any record were such tribal enumera-
tions as those recorded in the book of
Numbers, the avowed object of which
was to ascertain the strength and re-
sources of the various tribes by clans,
lesser gentle groups, and households,
not more for unitarian reasons than
for the qualification of gentle and
tribal pride.-1n Appleton's Popular

for it had been arranged that old Santa
would surely stop at that house and leave
little Frank his usual gifts. But it turned
out that during the early morning some
one broke into the house and stole every
thing off the tree
