England Nav Exclude chinese.

London, Oct. 1S.-The advisability of
following the example of the United
States in excluding the Chinese is be-
coming serious question in England.
This is partly due to the Chinese crisis,
but more directly to the increasing
number of Chinese in London. their
frequent appearance in police courts
and the increasing number of wretched,
half-caste offspring. A writer in the
Daily Chronicle AYERS that a large num-
Der Of Chinese are coming to work in
the new laundries, declares that no
law viii prevent them from increasing
the already large number of vicious
marriages with white women and
urges their exclusion as the only
remedy.

Present Condition in India.

Simla, Oct. a2.-The viceroy, in a
speech before the council, said the
famine had affected quarter of the
population of India, and that even now
2 100000 people were receiving relief.
He expressed the hope, however, that
within month these would return to
their homes. He said that half mil
lion deaths were traceable to the
famine and that the loss involved was
fifty millions of sterling, plus some
millions for loss OF cattle.
Abiding to the shocking mortality
in the native states, the viceroy said
that no relief system in the world
could counterfeit the effects of the
reduced food. the cessation of wages,
high prices, and the breaking up of
the homes of millions, or prevent pes
thence following famine.

SEA FISH III LAKE
Strange Discoveries In Central Africa BY
Explorer Moore.

Explorer Moore.
The problem of how the apple got
into the dumping sinks into insignif-
canoe beside that of the iellyfsh, the
cTustaceans and Lake Tanganyika; but
]. E. S. Moore, who has just come back
from Central Africa, believes he ha>
discovered how the fish from the seA
got into the lake in the middle Of the
continent Mr.. Moore is one of the
young men at the Royal College of
Science, South Kensington. He was
leader of an expedition largely subsi-
died by the Royal Geographical socie-
~, and after a years march of over
5000 miles, from the zambesi TO Ugan-
da, he has come back with hundreds of
specimens and several important addi-
tions TO the knowledge of Central At
RIGA. He has encountered cannibals,
volcanoes and glacier and scaled an
ice-clad peak called ''Sitchwi," in the
Ruwenzori mountains, or Mountains
of the Moon, at a height Of about 16, 500
feet. The mountains took ten days to
climb. The peaks of the range are COW
cred with ice to a depth of hundreds
of feet, for the snow melts in the day
and freezes at night. Mr.. Moore and
the twenty Ujiji boys who accompa-
MED him lived on goats during the as
cent and descent, driving the goats
and killing them when food was want
ed. The Ujiji boys were so struck with
the phenomenon of ice that they tried
to carry bits down to. Ujiji. The trop-
ical sun nearly boiled the ice on the
way. Between Tanganyika and Lake
Albert Edward is a lake called Kivu.
The best atlas published gives it as
about one-tenth the size Of Albert Ed
ward. Mr.. Moore, who was accom-
panied by Malcolm Ferguson, geolo-
gist and geophapher, found that Kivu
is larger than Albert Edward. The
north end OF Tanganyika was found to
be fifty miles westward Of its ascribed
position. It was between this lake and
Kivu that the cannibals were met.
They are tall, light-colored men, more
like Arabs than negroes, and are born
thieves. They gave much trouble and
killed two or three bearers. but Mr.
Moore never had to fight them out
right. The primary object of the ex-
petition was to dredge and sound the
lakes with reference to the marine
forms which Mr.. Moore found there
four years ago. The question was
whether the jellyf1sh and crustaceans
originally got into Tanganyika by way
of the Nile or the Congo. Having de-
termined that these marine species are
to be found in none of the lakes north
of Tanganyika, Mr.. Moore believe:
that Tanganyika was once joined t
the sea by way of great basin in the
Congo State. When Tanganyika wal
left high, if not dry. in the center o.
Africa, the jellyfish and crustacean!
| of the sea remained behind and theil
| descendants are flourishing today
They have been there many Thousand
of years, for fossils they resemble ar,
to be found below the chalk level.

DRUNKENNESS CURED.

DR.. KeeIey's Fanous Cure for the Liquor
and Morphine Craving In Kansas City.
That drunkenness and the morphine
habit are thoroughly cured by the
treatment originated by DR.. Kelley
has long since been proven beyond a
peradventure. DR.. Keeley's theory
that alcohol and narcotic drugs affect
the nerve cells in such a manner that
the drug finally becomes a necessity
to them in order that they may per-
form their functions. is now generally
accepted by the medical profession.
The Kelley treatment restores the
nerve cells to a healthy condition, in
which condition there is no necessity
for alcohol or narcotics, and the craT-
ing which the patient experienced dis
appears.
The Kelley Institute OF Kansas City.
No, has administered this treatment
for nearly ten years, and there are, in
nearly every town in the southwest,
living examples of the transforma-
tons brought about by the Kelley
treatment as administered at this In
stitution. Hundreds OF men and wo-
men have been placed under treat
ment as a last resort, their condition
having become such that their friends
despaired of their recovery, and ex-
pected nothing else but that they must
soon be confined in an asylum or laid
in the grave, and they have, after 8
few weeks treatment, been restored to
a surprisingly good condition OF health.
