ENGLAND'S PERIL
The Question of the Intentions of the
 Ameer of Afghanistan

That the British government has for some time had cause fog anxiety re- 4arJmg the Indian frontier and Indian affairs generally there is no manner of doubt For nearly a year past the at titude of ,he ameer of Afghanistau has been decidedly dubious, and on several occasions news has been published de- s.rihing the preparations of one kind and another which he was making against cycuualiues The prohibition or the export of horses to British India and or .he importation of salt from them. was one instance of growing un- frirndIiup.s 10 the British which was mentioned. als, the forming of supply depots on large scale i'm towns ou the main roads in the eastern and central parts of his .eritorv. and the mohiliz- ation of portion Of his army Large purchases of arms and ammunition were ,Is, ma lc in addition to what was turned ont Of the a.tory at Cahul and camp lr observation has been es,ab- Il.hed at a point 1n the British Indian frontier while ta Wo,n important froa- tier posts in other directions have been reinforced Whether an this has been done with .i.e rs of'r.s, or defense must be left to time 10 tell The most pressing question is as Co the relations between Russia and Afshaaistan an1 there We are somcwha. in the dark
 IT was reported some few months back that a Russian mi sion was cX- rectcd at Kabul but this was contra di,ted later About Inc same time. how eyer. the amecr suddenly left Kabul for the north and returned after short absence Withou. the reason fog his jour uey being glyca. The belief Was that it had a political object. and that there was meeting between the ameer and some foreign envoy. Thus whatever the cause. the amenr has been clearly taking sto.k cc he situation and mak- ing ready for whatever may happen.
 It is but natural to suppose that he has been kept fully informed 1f events in south Africa and China. and may think he sees am opportunity Co obtain from the British gnNcrumen, some of the concessions for Whi he vdinly sued at the time of his sons visit to England a few years ago. He may be presumed not t' be eutircy uuacquaiu.- ed with the condition of things in In- d,a and the recent marriage of one of his sons with the daughter or one of the leading Nussulnaus of the Punlab has been -hr u.casiou of much going to and fro between KabuI and India, even as far as Calcutta.

sian gulf that would bring on con
 aict with England, ;he ameer may be merely preparing to defend his neutral ity against a British army trying to-
 march through his territory by way of
 KanClhar into eastern Persia.
 Flu, here is another view of the situ- aticn. It is known that the amcer has always resented the arrangements -e- eayding his eastern frontier which were imposed on him after his accession t1 ,he soveroiguty and that inc is unwll- ingly neutral in the conflicts hetWeen he British and the frontier tribes. At the prl sent moment there IS practically war on between the former and the Waziris. and the a.,a of conflict might be almost indefinitely extended if the amcer were to give the necessary IT, ,owasemen, in the shape of arms and ammunition. The last important from tier campaign. thag of T!rah, was ear rieG on over but small area, vet Sir w. Luckhdrt had lo concentrate twen- -y-dve thousand men and seven.y-tivo thousand Camels, mules and ponies. and then never got moro than fifty miles from his base, to which ne was glad to get back after eight weeks hard dghing, in which ho lost heavily in men and transport animals Since then q very considerable change has come over things in India, British prestige has suffered as result of the Boer war famine end plague are re-
 sponsible for widespread discontent
 among the Indian people with their rul- crs, and there is not on the part of the latter the same confidence there was in
 the fidelity of the native army. This has been orspicuous in tha Nacillatlon cr he British government in the mat fer Of the armmamcnt of the native regiments. which d, all times have a weapon inferior to that of the British troops, IL is several months back that the issue of rifle superior to the Mar tini To the native troops was decided on; ,hou it was countermlnded.

The William Mckinley National Memorial Arch association has been incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia to meet this desire by the erection of a na- tional memorial arch in honor of President Mckinley in the city of Washington, by national popular subscription.
 "President Roosevelt has accepted honorary membership in the associa- | tiOn.
 Ut is proposed to place the memorial arch preferably at the Washington approach to the memorial bridge across the Potomac, connecting Wash | lngton with Arlington, which Presi- | dent Mckinley earnestly desired and 1 recommended to congress as "A Amonu- ment to American patriotism" "Contrlbutors to it's fund will be made members of the William Me Kinley National Memorial Arch asso- clation. The treasurer, Hon. Lyman J. Gage, secretary of the treasury of the United States, at Washington. D. t., will receive all contributions and will forward certificates of member ship to all contributors.

LEPROSY IN DENMARK.
Prevalence of the Disease Due to UncleanIiness and the Care
 1essness of the People,

Washington, Oct. 28.-United States Consul Victor E. Nelson, at Bergen. Norway, has sent report to the ma r1ne hospital service in which he says that the prevelance of leprosy in Den mark must be imputed to the unclean- lness and the grotesque carelessness of the people on that island. He says there are six leprosy patients there. of whom four are in Copenhagen. In Denmark leprosy does not belong to those few diseases which are subject ed to public treatment. Iceland has its own leprosy law. At the Laugar. noes hospital in Iceland, established by the Odd Fellow order. there were o1 patients received during 1899, and Of these IS are now dead and only two have been discharged as fully re- covered. Relapses were usual in lep. rosy cases. The death rate has been tearfuIly high, which is somewhat off set by the fact that that was the 1lrst year of the hospitals work, and the worst of Iceland's popula tion first were admitted. The report says that Dr. Armareuer Hansen, of Bergen, has found the leprosy bacillus, but it's antagonist is not yet discovered. The lcelanderS are declared to be incon- slderately imprudent, the sick people using the same beds, eating and drink ing utensils as the healthy.

Paradise for SpOrtsmen

To him who knows not where to go, there can be no better place suggested than the Pocono mountains, lying in the northeast ern part ot Pennsylvania, along the beauti- 1ul Delaware river. Whether you go for health, or sport, you can hardly experience the latter without acquiring the former. The elevation of the mountains varies from l,6O0 to 2,00O feet, and are one dense growth of pine and fir trees. Deer, bear and other large game are plentiful and though the region IS visited by thousands of sportsmen every year, there seems to be no noticeable decrease in the attractions offered The Pocono mountain hotels, camps and game preserves are readily accessible by the Lackawanna Railroad, the great trunk line between New York and the Great Lakes.

Many persons with delicate skin suffer greatly in winter from chapping. Ere quently the trouble arises from the use of impure soap and cheap salves. The face and hands should be washed only in clear, hot water with Ivory soap. A little mutton
