RUSSIA PROGRESSIVE.
May Adopt as Model Our Railroad
Department of Y. NJ. c. A.
work.

The work of the railroad department
of the Young Mems Christian associa.
tion in the United States will prob.
ably be adopted as a model by the Rus.
sian ministry of railroads, which is
planning to ameliorate the economic.
intellectual and moral status of its
employees. A delegation from the
Young Mems Christian association Wis.
tied Moscow last summer and made a
thorough investigation of the railroad d
hospitals and other charitable insti.
tutions of the older capital. The Rus.
sian government reciprocated the
complimeEt by sending Councillor
Chidlovsky and Nine. Chidlovsky and
delegates to the congress held in the
interest of the railroad department in
Philadelphia in the autumn. They have
just returned and made their report 10
Minister Khilkoff, and he has ordered
them TO make an exhaustive report on
the congress in writing. and to recon.
mend those arrangements which were
observed in the United States that
seem best adapted for Russia.

NEED AMERICAN, MACHINERY.
Mechanical Devices to the Rice
mills There.

"When in conversation with the op-
orators of the rice mills of Siam which
is the chief industry of that country,
one is compelled to believe, from the
tone of the operators, that they de-
sire the latest improved and best ma
chinery wherever it is g be found, and
will buy it for use in their mills" says
Consul General Hamilton King at
bangkok, in report to the state de-
partment. The consul says there are
26 rice mills in Bangkok. under the
management of people of nearly all ma
tionalities. save the American. who
are furnished machinery by a single
firm at Kirkcaldy, Scotland. with which
the American manufacturers could
compete easily.
The consul general says Siam knows
nothing of American rice milling; of
the special machinery by which we
get extra fine separation or how we
obtain the finest rice known. The con.
sui general adds as this is a growing
trade in Siam it is worth an intelligent
effort on the part of our manufacturers
TO secure a share Of the production.

clans who were father and son ha been
conducted by DR.. l.. A. Spitzka. OF
New York. The brains were those OF
DR.. Edouard Seguin and his son. DR..
Edward c. Seguin. The elder Segun
was an alienist. who discovered the sys-
tenn of educating and developing idiots
by employing and teaching the use of
the senses. The son was a neurologis t
of high standing. The son obtained his
fathers brain and willed his own to
DIR. Spitzka, Sr., who also secured that
of the elder Seguin. DR.. Spitzka gave
both of them to his son for observa.
tion.
The 'physiognomy' of both brains
differs little" said DR.. Spitzka. "If
they were placed with 100 others and
the lot were classified and reclassified,
according to convolutions, ultimately
the two would come into a class by
themselves,
