The stock market is indeed q giddy

about and soaring upward at an amaz-
ing rate. They have been soaring for
months surprising even the most astute
of Wall streets veterans, and the end

most worthless. except for voting pur-
poses very few years ago, are now

apparently selling no higher than they

spite the frequent outcry that the Hes

months past seems to favor the

by thousands who are on the right side
ana those who sold short have reaped

amazingly prosperous. The west has
money to burn. and the iron business,

How long the upward rush of stocks

ent force. Mr.. FILL says further that
the price of the dictionary will be re-
duced at once to $3.50, and that this was
one of the arguments he urged upon
the Merriams during the two days ne
gotiation. He says he said to them:
you have done so magnificently in
public benefcences, why not make your
browning act the placing of SO valuable
a work within reach Of the masses? If
you feel that the G. G. G. Merriam Com
pany cannot afford to do this, let me

Thus does Chicago take on new lau-
rels. Westward the star Of empire be-
gan to take its way some time ago, and
who knows but that some day Chicago
may become literary center and hold
its own with Boston and New York in
this respect as we'll as in several other

now so proudly occupies?

ENGLAND,S nIR7H RfTr.

/ According to official figures the mum
ber'of marriages in England in 1899 in
proportion to the population was the
highest ever recorded while the rate Of
births was the lowest. The London
Telegraph commenting on this matter
disputes the proposition that the ten
dency Of the race to become sterile is
due to city life and cites France as an
instance to the contrary. France is In
the main an agricultural country, yet
! the latest statistics reveal positive
decrease OF population In the Republic
The Baltimore Sun commenting on the
subject remarks: Most surprising of
all is the decline of the birth rate in
the British colonies. In the Australian
commonwealth and In New Zealand
this strange result has created great
perturbation. In these new lands 1t
might be thought there would be none
of that rebellion against maternity
which Is noticeable in the Old World.
In Australia the Influence of town life
Is certainly not paramount. Yet the
rate Of increase of population at the
antipodes is not reaseuring to those in
the mother country who hoped the race
in the colonies would flourish and in
crease exceedingly. The Telegraph is
even apprehensive as to the future of
Germany. The extraordinary growth of
tie Teutonic race it Gays, has accom-
panied that first stage of Industrial de-
velopment in previously agricultural
country which among ourselves was
equally attended by an unparalleled
rate OF national increase Our London
contemporary observes that the rate Of
acceleration in British national growth
began to be checked after a period of
depression in trade and predicts SINH
lar experience for Germany. The
'ominous conditions already recognized
in France have evidently extended in
some measure across the Channel to
England. If we may believe the Tele-
graph, the 'passion for freedom and
movement characteristic of the feminine
type in America has not been without
effect upon the growth of population in
the United States. The returns for the
twelfth census do not sustain the Tele-
graphs apprehensions in regard to this
country"

wealth. In 1899 as many As forty seven

worth each over $5,O000oo and thirteen

were correspondingly increased.
The London Chronicle says: 1T is
significant of the invariable opposition
offered to any innovation in this coun-
try that when the first proposal for a
census was made in Parliament it met
with bitter hostility. 1t was on March
%, 1858, that Mr.. Potter M. p, asked
leave to bring in a bill for the taking
and registering an annual account of
the total number of people, and of the
total number of births, deaths and mar
riages.' The ex-Home Secretarys
grandfather, Mr.. Matthew Ridley, said
that the people of Newcastle regarded
the measure as ominous, and feared
having regard, perhaps, to the punish
ment awarded to King David-lest some
public misfortune or an epidemical dis
temper should follow the numbering.
However, the bill passed the Commons,
and received the support of the govern
ment, but was thrown out by the Lords.
