THE advance estimates of tn

THE advance estimates of the population of the country were very close to the official figures given out last week-76, ,295, ,220. The total population in 1890 was 63, 3,O69, ,756. Uncle Sam has no reason to complain at the growth of his family during the past ten years. An increase of nearly 21 per cent is unpreceden- ted in the growth of large nations. At this time the United States ranks fourth in population among the nations of the world, China being first, India second, and Russia third. Germany is fifth, but it has only 52,279,00l.

The Notable Improvement on tn, Agricultural Conditions
 Within Four Years.
THE PUBLIC HARDLY APPRECIATES IT.
The Farm Products of Last Year were Worth One Billion six Hun. dlred Millions More than in Eithe, of the Preceding Two Years oi Depression-Other Figures.

New York, March 15.-"The i'm. provement in agricultural conditions now, contrasting with the depth of de- pression in 1s94-6, is as little appre- ciated by the outside public as was the farmers condition during the hard times. It is conservative, how ever, to say that the produce of the United States farms for the past year was worth to the farmers over Sl ,6oo,- GOO, 900 more than in either of the de- rossed years noted. This is an aver. age advance of 31 per cent. in values compared with the low point.'
 These statements are made by the American Agricuituralist for March, which contains an elaborate review of the agricultural situation from d financial and industrial standpoint The live stock of the country is said to be worth S700, 0,000,00O more than during the hard times, or gain of 3s per cent. Staple crops are worth S400, ,000 more than then. while other crops show an increase of $200,- 000,000 in value, or gain of 25 per cent. compared with the depression ot '94-95-96. The product of live stock, such as meats, dairy products, calves, mutton, sheep and lambs, hides and belts, colts, mules, etc., are said 10 show gain of S37o,oO0o o00 or 40 per cent. above the low point.

 "The incident is of interest only in the light it throws on American poli- tics. Republicans and democrats alike are always prepared to risk the friend ship of England in the party game. We may preserve amicable relations with the United States, and it is to be hoped we always shall do so, but an alliance is impossible. We were brought to the verge of war four years ago for the sake of Mir. Cleve- lands reelection, and pretext for n diplomatic quarrel will never be want ing when the anti-English elements of the republic have to be conciliated.'

A PAYING EXPERIMENT.
Capital Out of a Big Fi- nancial Hole.

Topeka, Kas.. March 15.-The Shel- Ion experiment will be paying in- testment for the Capital company. lt Is estimated that the tctal circulation of the Sheldon edition will be 100000 copies, and that this circulation will be swelled 1000 copies more in street sales in New York, Chicago and other sities and in Europe. Three hundred thousand subscriptions have been sent In by church organization and Ep- worth leagues. These organizations got the paper at 15 cents for the week, and charged ten cents extra to sub scribers, which fund goes into the licifing .he subscribers.
 Mir. |. o. Popence, one of the owners, said that it would be fair estimate that the subscriptions would net the Capital nearly S50,o00, ard that for eign advertising would swell that amount to over s65.oO0. This sum will lift from the Capital debt of over $50. 900, which has been hanging over the paper for l2 years.
 The Sheldon experiment was con- ceiyed by F. o. Popence, who said that the Capital company would set apart a reasonable portion of the profits for such charities as Mir. Sheldon may sug- gest.
 The rew editor will refuse to accept anything for his services. It is prob abie that sl0.000 will be rendered Mr. sheldon for such disposition as he may wish to make of it. The money will be expended in beautifying d region of Topeka, known as Tennessee Town," which is settled by negro colony. brough to Topeka from the southern states through the influences of John P. St. John, when he was governor of Kansas. Schools, churches, libraries and other buildings will be erected on small scale, and the negro citizens will be induced to improve their homes, grounds, streets, parks and general surroundings.

The First Full Meeting of the New Commission Win be Held
 March 2S.

Washington, March 15.-Judge Taft, president of the new Philippine com mission, has notified his fellow com missioners that the commission will convene in this city March 27.
 Judge Taft's resignation of his ju- dicial office takes effect Thursday. It had been supposed that the new com mission would be called together inn mediately thereafter, but it is proba- ble that the task of closing up his af- fairs preparatory to long absence from the United States has made it necessary for Judge Taft to defer the first meeting until the 27th inst. Mean while, the old commission is winding up its affairs.
