George w. smalley, the New York

writes in sneering vein to that paper
upon the American governments atti-
tude toward China. Mr.. Smalley is an
American by birth, who during a long
residence in England developed an
affection for English institutions and
ideas. He contrived. nevertheless. to
make himself so unpopular with Eng
lishmen-who have way OF dislik;ng
men who abuse and belittle their own
eountry-that London became uncom-
Portable as a place of abode. So he
came TO New York and began publish
ing his iibels on the United States by
cable. Ridiculed in his former home
and despised in the country of his
birth, Smalley is rather to be pitied.
He is now man without country.

The center Of population is the cen
ter Of gravity OF the population Of the
country, each Individual being assumed
TO have the same weight. The method
Of determining that center is as fol-
lows: The population Of the country
is first distributed by square de-
grees," as the area included between
consecutive parallels and meridians is
designated. A point is then assumed
tentatively as the center. and the cor
rections in latitude and longitude to
this tentative position are computed.
In 1890 the center was assumed to be
at the intersection Of the parallel of 80
degrees, with the meridian of Sc de-
grees west OF Greenwich. This would
have made the center of population of
the United States just two miles due
north of Seymour, in Jackson county.
Ind. From this assumed base the Yeri-
fcations were made and the true cen
ter was located
The movement of the center has
been steadily westward. On the ac-
companying map its unwavering
march toward the west, with occasion
al dips to the south and the north, is
shown. In 1890 it was east Of Balti-
more twenty miles. In ten years it
had moved forty miles westward. The
annexation of Louisiana brought it
south and west, and in 1920 it was
sixteen miles north Of Woodstock, Va.

A CHASTITY dispatch is that from Ber-
lin about the interesting target prac-
tice" going on at the imperial military
grounds, where the experts are test
ing the capacity of the latest Mauser
model AS targets, says the dispatch
several hundreds of paUper corpses
are being used" and it goes on to
describe the frightful effect of the
bullets upon the bodies If the corre-
spondent had taken the trouble to in
form US how many hundreds of pau
per corpses" constitute the daily sup
ply of Berlin and vicinity, he would
have added a little to the veri-simili-
tude of this extraordinary tale. That
such an experiment might be made
upon one or more dead bodies is con-
and would be a proper means
Of ascertaining the actual effect of the
bullets. But the several hundreds
carries the tale into the region of the
grotesque. 1t may be suggested, how
ever, that the German military author
tiles would not hesitate to carry ex-
periments Of this kind to any extent
possible. The way in which the Ger
man troops in China are sseribed as
shooting Mauser bullets into living
bodies does not indicate any super
huous tenderness, whether or not
