Church Of England both in point OF years
and service. His missionary work has eX-

"The homes consist of a mother build
ing, the orphanage, the church and the
Washington house." said the Archbishop.
MY wife. the founder Of these homes. was
prompted to begin the work about twenty
five years ago. She talked with a Young

When we see diamond sparkling OF

now assure US that jewels have a sortl

when worn by the sick, and pearls must,
receive careful handling or they losei
color and brilliancy and finally die.
Gems, like books, are said to breathe
that is, the air penetrates them, carry
ing with it emanations from the body.
II the hand on which the jewel is worn
gives off an unhealthy vapor, then the
jewel will receive its proportion and bel

Iuiteracy in Russia.

The illiteracy of Russia exceeds that
of any other country claiming to have
a civilized government. The Humani-
tartan states that in 10000 villages OF
the vast empire there is not school,
and it is estimated that not twenty per
cent of the population of the empire
has acquired even the rudiments Of a
common school education. 1t has been
figured out that if the czar would dis
band 100000 men of the vast army he
would thereby save money enough to
provide school for each OF the VII
lagos. 1t is not surprising that the
car should desire to reach some ar
rangement with the other nations
which would permit him to partially
disarm.

To some among the gentler sex the

feared, synonymous with similar

misrepresentation of terms that the at
tempt was made, not so very long ago,
to Introduce the glories of the bloomer
costume. But though the attempt
proved failure the spirit that impell-
ed it still survives, as may be seen by
the various masculine notifications
that have crept into female dress dur
ing the past few years. Where is the

wearer from gaze, sadness creeps over
one that such things should be?-Car-

READY FOR ANY EMERGENCY.

Santiago de Cuba, April 9.-The first
important action of the new mayor,
Senior Grinan, in suppressing Ell Cubano
Libre and placing under arrest the ed
itorial staff of five men, created intense
excitement when it became known.
FL Cuhano Libre has always been in
tensely radical in its utterances against
the Americans, Spaniards and white
Cubans. 1t published an editorial,
both offensive and indecent, in criti-
cism of the civil government, particu-
larly the municipal branch. The
editorial characterized the place as ian
official sewer and a eesspool of moral
corruption" and used other language
not fit for publication. 1t charged Off
Gals with stealing. The new mayor,
who proposes an aggressive and pro-
gressive administration, acting under
General Woods order of March "a,
giving mayors the control of public
order, eonfscated the printing plant
and landed the editorial staff in Jail.
He justifies this step on the grounds of
public decency. The Americans, for
eigners and best class of Cubans
applaud his action. Two hundred
prominent Cubans signed a telegram to
General Wood endorsing Senior Grinan's
course The eolored party objects and
says the time has arrived for decisive
action. The colored general Rabi and
other leaders were telegraphed to come
Immediately to Santiago to head a
popular movement against the Ameri-
cans and the Cuban traitors There
is considerable excitement in the city
and it is expected that the release of
the editors will be followed by riots.
All of the police of the city and the
rural guards are under arms and ready
for an emergency.

Miaaiasippi Ieyees.

The levees on both sides of the Mis-
sissippi are of sufficient extent that II
they were built in straight line they
would be about 1900 miles long, or long
enough to stretch the greater part Of
the distance between New York and
New Orleans. They would form a
bank of earth about s6 feet wide at the
base, eight feet wide at the top and
13 or IA feet high. The Chinese wall
would lose it's reputation as a wonder
in comparison with them, and they
have cost many millions of dollars.

Cripple Creek, Col, April 1.-TWO

high rates demanded by the shelters
for the treatment of gold ores. A few
men will be kept at work in the drifts

until such time as the directors are
able to secure better rates from smelt

the big mines will curtail their output
which means the throwing out of en-

MANY M,u,.a, for Peanuts.

The people of the United States con-

Hually, at "a cost of about 10,OOO,OOo.
The growing ,si the peanut in this
country is gradually increasing, but
much of the product consumed is still
brought from abroad, notably from
Spain, Egypt and Japan. Yet the South
Atlantic seaboard and the lower Mis-
sissippi valley, as well aas other parts
of the United States have been shown
to be abundantly responsive to the cul-
tivation of this ground nut, the aver
age yield being about sixty bushels per
acre.
