WHEN THE TWENTIETH CEN.
TURY BEGINS.

L, is curious to read Ia the papers
and periodicals. Of the great discrep-
ancy Of opinion as to when the TWEEN
tieth century begins and when the
present century ends. Almost every
paper, pamphlet, magazine, or peri
odical of whatever character, con-
tsins something relative to the begin
ming of the twentieth century. The
general consensus of opinion, how
ever, agrees that the twentieth CEN
tnry does not begin with the year
1900, rs claimed by some, but with
the year 1901.
Tbs is correct The beginning Of
time, as marked BY years and centu-
RES, starts with the birth of Christ,
the Christian Era. The year / be-
gan the first century. The FIRST GEN.
iury was not completed until the end
OF the year 100. The year 101 be-
gan the second century, which did
not end until the close OF the year
200, and so on. The nineteenth
century, therefore, does not end until
the end OF the year 1900; for if the
twentieth century began last Monday
with 1900, then the century just past
10 one year short. The twentieth
century begins with 1901 and goes to
the year 1000 inclusive, when the
twepty-frst century will begin. and
to which the attention of our readers
will be called by the BID. on Jan.
lst, POOL.
The Ladies' Home Journal for
January, 1900, has the following to
say on the subject:
"Of course everybody knows that
the twentieth century will begin on
Tuesday, January l, 1901. Ii Ia
true that some thoughtless individuals
have obscured the matter by basty
expressions of opinion. setting the
date for January 1900. But such
persons have forgotten. that we begin
10 count with /, and that the hun
dred is not completed till the two
ciphers have appeared and the new
hundred begins, as did the old
one, with /. just az the year
100 with its close marked the compile
tion OF the first century, SO will the
year 1900 with its last moments end
our nineteenth century, and 1901 be-
gin the twentieth"

An Inverted House.

Below is shown a picture OF the in
verted house, which forms n of the
attractions at the Paris exposition, a
patent on the building having been
granted to Adolph Kotin of London.
Everything about the exterior and in
terror of the dwelling seems to be in
yerted and it gives the visitor a de-
cidedly queer sensation to see chairs,
tables, mirrors, etc, all seemingly
wrong side up; yet in reality there is
not n piece of furniture in the house
which does not stand right side up.
The illusion is produced by means OF
mirrors arranged in such a manner
that the visitor is compelled to look
at them instead of at the furniture,
and while he thinks he is gazing di-
rectly at a chair or table he Is in
reality gazing at a glass which Is set
at such angle that the line of sight Is
transferred to a second glass and

The Boer war has given rise to a
peculiar discussion In Germany. Most
Of the deyout Christians there have
been praying for the success OF the
Beers. and the religious press OF Ger
many has been practically unanimous
In opposition to England. These news
papers and many clergymen urged that
prayers be offered for the success OF
the Boer arms, and the suggestion
was followed widely. The religious
press predicted that the prayers would
be heard and that they would be efica-
cious In bringing about the defeat OF
the English. But thus far the war
has gone woefully against the pray
ers. Yet II is not over. Things may

France was stabbed at Lyons on June
"a, 1894: Canovas del Castillo, prime
minister Of Spain and virtually ruler OF
the country while he was In office, was
shot and killed at Santa Agueda on
Aug. s, 1897. All three a~ssassinations
were the work OF men who loudly pro-
claimed themselves anarchists and
their deeds the result of their conNic-
lions, and the assassins were all three
Italians, a circumstance which imme-
diately after the three a~ssassiaations
caused a furore against that race In
the countries which had suffered.
The final and successful attempt OF
nihilism on the life OF Alexander III.
OF Russia occurred on March 13, 1881.
Two bombs were thrown at the i'm
perlal carriage. the first by Rysakoff,
the second and fatal one by Grenevit-
sky. The emperor was out to view the
parade OF the Marine corps. The event
had been planned far In advance and
nihilism had plenty OF time to arrange
what was to be a grand movement to
end the cars life. Mines were laid

might pass and adherents literally sup
piled with hand bombs to throw In
case the mines failed. AS the carriage
approached the bridge over the Cath
crime canal Rysakoff pressed forward
through some workmen shoveling snow
and threw the first bomb.
1t fell behind the carriage, tearing
out the back. and %wounding two cos
sacks. The emperor stepped out OF his
carriage, and as he did so the second
bomb, thrown by G%renevitsky, fell and
exploded at his feet, breaking both legs
and penetrating his abdomen. The en-
peror died two hours after the explo-
sion of the bomb at his feet. Frag-
ments OF the bomb killed and wounded
people in every direction, the bomb
thrower himself being killed. This
successful attempt was the result of a
widespread plot In the Russian branch
OF anarchistic Europe. Five OF the
conspirators were hanged.
The killing of President Carnot Of
France at Lyons on June "a, 1894, and
the assassination of Premier Canovas
on Aug. 3, 1897, were still fresh In the
memory of Europe when the third out
rage In four years was committed at
Geneva. President Carnot's assassin,
Santo, rushed upon the presidents car
riage and plunged a ponlard into the
body OF his victim. for which he lost
his head. Golli, the assassin of Cano-
vas. used a pistol on the Spanish
premier at Santa Ague. a Spanish
summer resort. and he also suffered
death for his madness.

lions OF the century:

child will do 1t, and 1t may be her SAL
walton.
The prison keeper also says II should
be allowed to remain with the mother,
but Governor Voorhees, declares that
the two should be separated at once
and for good. There Is no law that
provides for an innocent child being
kept in prison. and no law that enables
the authorities to take 1t from her at
present. The philanthroplsts say,
however, that the woman is hopelessly
degenerate, and II they cannot per-
suade her to give up the child they
mean to find ways to take It from her.
II they do. New Jersey may furnish
one of the most unique legal battles of
recent years.
