-one foreign devir' to rather more than 20O00' Celestials The discrepancy is too large even for Adelphi melodrama. If China proved as difficult, say, as Egypt, to rule, Europe would need to fling into the coun- try 100000 men, military and civilian; if it turned out to be as easy to manage as India has been of late years, 15000O would do. Our own share of either number would not be small, for in the event of China going to pieces, we have practically be- spoken the Valley of the Yangtse River, which is said to flow oyer 5000 miles through one of the most densely thronged parts of the Celestial Empire.
 Russia, France and Germany may have soldiers enough and to spare, even to bridle Chinas illimitable hordes But we should be hard put to 1t to find another establishment as big, probably, as our h. dian one-oYer 10000 British troops. To this would also have to be added the nec- essary civil service officials, another 500o or 10000. No wonder the eyes of British statesmen rest doubtfully on the map of the Flowery Land.

THOUSANDS RULE MILLIONS
On That Basis 100000 Whites Would
 be Re quired to Administer China

From the London Express.
 | More than any other modern nation, 1 Great Britain has had experience in dealing with huge subject populations on an oco- l nomical basis. In Egypt, for instance, her army of occupation is only 5000 men, and her civilians of all classes only add anothvr H., ,0C0 or so-barey 10000 to balance, admin ister, and control native population of nearly 10,000,000 The proportion works out at l Brtisher to every 800 natives.
 Compare the French occupation of AL geria. Algeria has native population of some three and half millions, police6 by SO,0OO French troops, supported by &re90 French civilians. Proportion, about one conqueror to ten conquered. At the same rate we should want in Egypt oyer S5,0e9 British troops and 100000 British civilians. 1nda "the brightest jewel in the British crown" boasts a setting slender enough to frighten any one but the phegmatic Britisher into a national panic. France polices her 3500,000 Algerian subjects with 3O,OOOO Frenchmen we guard our 2900OO,OOO Indians with less than 75,000 British troops. Including civilians, there is not in our h. dian empire more than l Britisher to 5000 natives. If we ruled in the east as France rules in the south should have to dump down on Indian soil three-quarters of the population of these islands. Instead of which, the entire European section pres ent in India does not exceed 10000 of all nationalistS.
 Never was so mighty team as India's 290, ,000 GOO driven with such a siken rein as that employed by the British adminis- tration
 These instances serve to throw some light on the terrific problem threatened by the possible breakup of the Chinese Empire. If Europe does indeed, decide to undertake the gigantic task of governing China, she will have to control a population varying, according to different authorities, from 300,- 100000 to 400, ,000, ,000 Under ordinary cir cumstances there are not, in the "open ports and Continental Embassies of the Flowery Land, more than 15,000 Europeans

tract more attention than any other in- ventions of this character.
 The most remarkable inventions along these lines is gun designed to fire boat with man in it. The boat is canoe-shaped, and the man, enveloped in an elastic air sack lies down in it, with his feet toward the stern. Around him is tarpaulin cover fastened to his waist, all of which the little craft in which he is so snugly Pop goes the gun which is shot off by compressed air. and the boat is fired far out over the ocean towards the vessel in distress.
 In firing a line from the shore it is al- ways difficult to get it just over the ship in distress. To obviate this trouble M. Delvigne, the French ship builder, has in- vented a gun that fires from the ship to the shore. In this device the lines are at tached to arrows, which are fired from a small gun, and the line runs out unchecked until the arrow is stopped.
 Such, in brief. are a few of the inven- tions of the past fifty years and at the present time there are enough of them in good working order to rob an ocean voy- age of much of it's horrors. Given few such prizes that of MT. Pollok, however, and the improvements of another century would all be accomplished within the short space of a few years.

Millions Added 10 the Worlds Gold
Washington Correspondence of the New York Herald, June 26.

Washington Correspondence of the New
 York Herald, June 26.
 Director of the Mint Roberts has just completed a preliminary estimate of the gold production of the world for the calendar year 1899. Subject to corrections when all the official figures shall have been received, it shows a total production of sSl5,0oO,oOO. For the l&esent year Direc- tor Roberts estimates e.e production of an equal amount, as the failing off in South Africa, due to the war, will be fully com pensated for by the increased production of the United States, Alaska and the Klon- dke.
 Now that the South African mines are in the hands of the British, and with the Cape Nome and other fields being rapidly developed, 1t is certain that the produc- tion of 1901 will show a very large in- crease, and Director Roberts predicts that in few years the annual production will reach $400, GOO, 000 MT. Roberts said tonight:

HEAVY PAPER BAGS
It is Alleged That Some Grocers Use
 Them

From the Detroit Free Press.
 A Chicago newspaper man was in Deroit yesterday investigating the alleged use or heavyweight paper bags by grocery men, He says there have been numberous com plaints in Chicago. Regarding Detroit dealers he said that there are some grocers extremely partial to a particularly heavy colored paper bag in the weighing up pro-. cess. A vast quantity of these bags-some red, some blue, some stripped-are turned out by the big factories of Chicago, Jack son, Detroit, Cleveland and other cities and very many of them are used in this ter ritory, it is said. Their great popularity with the grocer is due to their extra heavy weight in his scales they being at least three times as heavy as the well-knoWn light Manila bag, as will be seen by glance at the following tables, secured from one of these bag manufacturers:

There are many red sugar bags as they are known to the trade, heavier than his on the market, but only the standard seight goods are quoted. These bags are mostly used in the weighing up of sugar and coffee, although occasionally a pound of tea is placed therein. Invariably grocer uses colored bag a size larger than the amount of the product he has weighed up in it. The bags cost the re- taller an average of cents per pound, and on every pound sale of sugar weighed in this bag the grocer is clearing at the rate of about cents per pound on the bag and about a half-cent on the sugar. In many instances a consumer will buy twenty or twenty-five pounds of sugar at a time. If twenty pounds are weighed in one of these bags the consumer is getting entitled to that much more sugar. On five such sales the grocer is in about a pound of sugar, or cents.
 The dealer who weighs up and sells 1000 pounds of coffee in these heavy colored bags is making $72O on bags for which he pays but 96 cents. On 1000 such sales of tea at $ per pound (weighed in this bag) he gets $24 for bags, which cost him e6 cents, and all at the consumers eX- penSe.
 When asked why he insists upon continu- ing this practice, some grocers reply that the colored bag is tougher and wears bet ter than the manila bag. Machine tests of two bags of corresponding capacity do not sustain this contention. In one such test recently both bags broke at the same weight-S pounds. To use one grocers language: "The only remedy the consumer has is to make kick and insist upon the weighing of food supplies in the scales without the paper bag"

WHEN CURVES WE'RE NEW.
Ball Pitchers Demonstrated Their
skin at Cincinnati

In recently discussing the curve ball.
a prominent New York writer pub
lshod a dispatch, dated Cincinnati,
which reads as follows:
with a view Of settling the vexed
question as TO whether q pitcher can
or can not curve ball practical eX-
perimonts were made az Cincinnati o.,
ON Saturday, October 20, ISL when
the Bostons and CincInnau5 played a
match. The following parallel with
the line from the home plate 10 the
first base bag was taken as a straight
line for the trial. on the Cincinnati
grounds It runs north and south The
pitcher was placed ri the south end OF
II, opposite the home plate. Midway
between the home plate and the first
base was placed a section OF a paling
fence, one end resting on the line and
the other pointing toward the inheld
at right angles. This, of course,
formed a barrier 10 the bail starting
on the west side Of the line unless Il
should cross over 20 the east side. An
other section Of the fence was placed
at right angles 10 the line opposite the
first base, but being on the east side
OF the line. Then az the south end
board was placed on the end OF the
line.
Bond, the pitcher Of the Bostons,
was placed on the west side Of the
board, and little behind IT, so that
he was obliged 10 deliver the ball from
the west side Of the line. Il was for
him 10 demonstrate that the ball could
be made 20 leave his hand on the west
side Of the line. cross over 20 the east
side so as to avoid the other fence.
Bond at first sent the ball against the
edge Of the board, but after several
trials he was able % clear that and
sending the ball fairly around the mid
de barrier, landed il on the same side
II started from at the other end Of
the line. The curve was not only WIS.,
ible 70 the eye but it was shown be-
yond possibility OF dispute The demon
stration was greeted with shouts OF
applause. Mitchess OF the Cincinnati

around the middle barrier, and was

that pitchers can pitch curved balls.
