War, Famine, PesfrIence.

War, famine and pestilence did their
share, and perhaps more, last year in
reducing the population of the world.
In 1899 the principal military opera
lions were confined to the Philippine
islands, the Soudan and south Africa,
and the losses in killed and wounded
from these and scattering sources were
4S 161. Last year the principal opera
lions were in the Philippine islands,
south Africa, China and Colombia, and
from these the returns of killed and
wounded are as follows: China, 90.913;
south Africa, 240OS; Philippines, 6,621,
and Colombia, 500. The returns from
China represent not only the results
of collisions between the Chinese and
the allies, but also the dreadful massa-

The century lately closed gave us
the age of steam One of the pathfind-
ers in this direction was James Watt
0736-1819). In 1869 he constructed the
first steam engine that would work
satisfactorily.
Next to steam it is electricity and
Michael Faraday q791-1S67) may well
be called the first electrician. That
electricity was possessed of a chemical
quality had not even been suspected
until his experiments in what has
since been known as electrolysis.
John Ericsson QSO3-1SS9) was a
competitor of Stephenson in the trial
of locomotives in 1929, but his work
was to be connected more with the de-
velopment of locomotion by water than
on land. The first vessel to which he
applied this original device was the
Princeton in 1S43. His place in his
tory will be always connected also
with his conception of the Monitor.
Natural science progressed marvel
ously in these 100 years and it is to the
mind of George Culver (1769-1S32) that
much of it is due. Cuvier established
the history of the animal kingdom in
the light of comparative anatomy, and
laid the foundations of the study of
prehistoric animal life by his wonder
full reservations of extinct species from
single fragments.
Charles Darwin QS0e-1SS2) furnish
ed the key to many problems of zoo
logy which had been considered un-
solvable before his time. His work
crowned that of Cuvier.
Louis Pasteur 1S22-1s95) succeeded
in solving more than one difficult prob
lem in chemistry, interesting the
world of science by his discoveries in
the field of bacterial life He devised
method of filtration of water which
has stood the best tests, based as it is
upon solid scientific principles His
work best known to the public, how
ever, is his discovery of the virus by
which rabies is prevented

1868 suggested the valuable method of
guarding against danger from the use

Elias Howe QS19-1S6T, the inventor
of the sewing machine, may seem to
have only substituted mechanical slav-
cry for manual, but the possibility of

ton, and if the machine has been
abused it is not the fault of this most
useful invention

The study of the sponge fields of
Florida is to be undertaken by the gov
eminent with a view to developing an
important industry. Florida is the
only part of the United States produc-
ing sponges of commercial value.
There are 80 vessels with more than
1000 men employed in the industry.
and it is estimated that the 1900-1901
crop will have a commercial value of
$S50,00n- Sponges are found on the
eastern and western coast, owing to
the equable temperature and moderate
depth of the water, and the absence of
fierce hurricanes The sponge grounds
of the Gulf of Mexico extend from the
Florida reefs to st. Marks, and for a
distance of fifteen miles from the
shore.

Some idea of the diversity of condi-
lions in the state of Texas may be
gained from the fact that there was
held within its borders few years ago
at nearly the same date a drainage
conference and an irrigation conven-
ton. One was at Galveston and the
other at San Antonio. Some persons
were thus studying means of lessening
the amount of water over q large area,
while others sought to increase it, or
rather to make it's supply FIR agricul-
tural purposes more regular.
