After the long ana well remembered
fight in Congress which fed to the pas

the active interest in the reform taken by
the executive branch of the Government,
it is a trife surprising to lind the Admin

can accurately forecast the changes Of
the future, which may have most
important bearing upon this much
mooted question. At the same time
1t Is perfectly clear that increasing
density of population will make the
struggle for existence, keener un-
less industrial science moves apace,
which 1t can scarcely be expected to
do continuously. The harder this strug-
gle becomes. the greater, will be the
check to the increase of population:
for while large families are quite COM
mon among the poor, they are not gen
orally found among the extremely poor.
Mr.. Schooling assumes that the
world will be "fulf' when it has
population of a thousand to the square
mile. This would allow less than two
and. as is well known, vast areas of the
earth's surface are practically unpro-
ductive. 1t is self-evident that long be-
fore that point has been reached, the
changed conditions will themselves
have administered check to the in
crease Of population, each nation or
community adjusting itself to the con-
ditions by which 1t is Immediately
surrounded. We cannot deal with this
question as II man were senseless
brute. We must give him the benefit
of the intelligence which we know him
to possess. and which is capable of al
most limitless development When We
do this, it is impossible to imagine the
human race increasing right up to the
limit of the earth's productivity.

Captain Schley. of the Regular Army,

Pile in connection with the Sampson
scandal when the truth shall be presented

ported. he says that Admiral Schley's
adelay at Cienfuegos was caused by &
direct order from Sampson, contained in
a communication which has been sup
pressed, but the original of which is IN
possession of the former. There are two
bits of advice which we feel il our duty
to offer the admiral and the captain, his
offspring. To the. first we suggest the
advisability of seeing to it that the yalu-

A GIBRALTAR TUNNEL.

zone of the boldest and most fascin'
atng projects Of modern times Is that
put forth by Il Partisan civil engineer,
NJ. Jean Berlier, who proposes to con-
meet Europe and Africa by a twenty
five.mile tunnel under the Mediter
ranean, The great enterprise has
never been explained to Anglo-Saxon
readers, and Is for the first time fully
set forth IN EvEkYBODY's MAGAZINE
by Eugene P. Lyle.
zone should at once disconnect this
fairy tale from fiction, because M. Ber-
ler has drawn plans before, and those
plans are now replaced by the realities.
The Gibraltar wonder promises to be
no exception. The Government OF
Spail has granted concession. A
more powerful nation, France, Is In
sympathy, and the men with the mon
ey are ready and willing. Only word
from the Sultan Of Morocco is lacking.
1.-THE cost of the enterprise M. Ber-
lier sums up as follows: The tunnel,
123, 900, 900 francs; the railway to the
Algerian border, 118, 100000 francs;
the total, 24l, 100000 francs; or In
round numbers 242, 900, O0Ofrancs(abOut
$4S.500, 000)for the entire project.
1.-The expense of boring the tun-
mel is estimated at 5000, 900 fracs Kill
ometre, and NJ. Berller estimates he
can finish within seven years at the
longest. The total cost therefore will
be 1913, 000,0 francs, which Is not
large, since he expects from the NOM
ent Of completion to handle the great
er part of the traffic between northern
Africa and Europe. AS to effects, he
maintains that his project can sustain
comparison with the Suez Canal.

In late years men have made fortunes out Of
the tailings of gold mines. The mills in which
the ore formerly was crushed and the crude pro-
cesses then in use allowed large percentage of
the precious metal to escape, and that loss in
some cases amounted to a fortune. The stom
ach is just like stamp mill in this respect that
when it is not in perfect order it allows the es-
cape and waste of much Of the precious nutri-
ment contained in the food, That loss when
continuous means the loss Of mans greatest
fortune health. Science offers remedy for
this condition In DR.. Piercess Golden Medical
Discovery. 1t corrects the weakness of the
stomach, prevents waste and loss of nourish-
ment, and puts the stomach and organs of dig
estion and nutrition into condition of health
which enables them to save and assimilate all
nutriment contained in the food which is eaten.
In all cases OF consumption the use Of DR..
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets will speedily and per-
manently cure the disease.
