LIPTON IND HIS BOAT.

Sir Thomas Lipton is on his way to
 the United States. Just before he left
 London yesterday he made a smooth
 speech in which he said: We have
 done all on this side that could be done
 and the boat is in the hands of the most
 skillful yachtsmen in the United King
 dom. If we fail we shall know we have
 been beaten by generous, high-feeling sportsmen who know more about the
 game than we" Then he stepped on
 the train amid outbursts of cheering, and he will step on shore in this coun
 try amid similar outbursts, for he is a jolly good fellow, and nobody has any beginning to dawn on the perception of the people of this country that he has sent over here jolly good boat. Ex- perts who have seen and studied her talk alarmingly about her, that Is, alarmingly to those who don't want to see her win the cup John R. Spears says of her: Without any exception the model of the new Shamrock above water is the most beautiful and the cleanest and swiftest of any that ever sought for or defended the cup" And he doesn't think 1t possible that her lines under water are wrong. Other experts talk similarly, and there may be a good wholesome scare on before the race. Of course no patriotic rooter for the United States can afford to think there will be anything but a scare, and if there isn't all will be well. If there, is there will be some gloom, but nobody will begrudge Sir Thomas Upton his good luck. He deserves vic- tory, if anybody outside of this country is to have it.

HAPPY COMPLIMENTS

Mrs. Asquith, who is one of the most interesting figures in soeiety-and who, by the way Is interesting herself in
 the question of the camps-was once the recipient of one of the finest com plments any woman has ever received.
 She was member of party on
 board one of Sir Donald Currie's ships, and her grace and beauty fascinated all about her, from MT. Gladstone and
 Lord Tennyson down to the humblest
 sailor. It was one of the sailors whom
 Mrs Asquith then Miss Tennant, ask
 ed if he were married, and it was the
 sailor who paid her the highest com
 pliment she could receive "Yes
 ma'am," said Jack, looking up at Miss
 Tennant, 'I am sorry to say I am"
 It was a happy speech, fit to rank
 with Father Healy's best Father
 Healy and friend were once walking with a young lady companion, who, as
 she stood between them gathered some flowers, and asked: Did you ever see anything more charming than these?" Yes" said Father Healy, q have seen something a great deal llluit tlIil but tfldl S DtlNttI you and me, George" Mir. Choate's compliment to his wife was almost as good. He was asked who he would like to be if he were not himself and as he ran through the names of the great ones of the earth, his eye fell up- on his wife, and he hestated no longer Mrs. Choate's second husband" he said. Equally happy was his remark as he looked up at gallery full of la dies. Now I understand" he said, what the Bible means when 1t says, Thou madest man a little lower than the angels

HEdLTH TN WOOD IND IRON

Surgeon w. E. Howe of the British navy has come to the conclusion that the substitution of iron for wood in warships has greatly improved the san
 itary conditions. Comparing the rec
 ords of the wooden training ships with
 those of the iron training ships in 1898,
 1t was found that the daily sick list
 on the wooden ships averaged 1S2 per LOGO persons, on the wooden ships, as against 12.4 per 1000 on the iron ships.
 The deaths on the wooden vessels were
 more than twice as many as on the iron
 vessels, being 5.5 per 1000 in the one
 case and 2.5 in the other. In 1899 the
 deaths were per 1000 on the wooden
 vessels, as against , per 1000 on the iron vessels The difference IS ascrib- ed to the greate cubic space on the
 metallic ship. the greater dryness and better ventilation. It is difficult to keep a wooden vessel in a perfectly sanitary be cleansed with comparative ease. The difference between the two classes of vessels in point of health has been not iced ever since iron vessels came into use, and the later iron ships are healthier than the older ones This is we'll shown in a comparison of the

"HELLOD IN CHINA.

One of the great wonders of the tele- phone is that it will carry the Chinese language without breaking. Soon the Chinese equivalents for Hello ,' Wires busy" etc., will be fitting all over China. Already there are tele- phone companies in most of the open ports. There is one in Shanghai which has over four hundred subscribers, at s35 a year. while Canton. Tientsin, Annoy, Hankow, and other coast cities also have telephone systems. There is great demand for rapid communica- tion in nearly all parts of China, and the business people of that country are rapidly coming to the conviction that they can make money out of the tele- phone, and the Chinese superstitions in regard to 1t are fast disappearing, since the success of the allied forces. But even now many of the Chinese peasants think that every telephone has a devil connected with it. They look upon talking through wires as a work of magic, A German living near the Grand Canal recently nearly lost his life because of his connection with new telephone line being erected there. When some Chinese boys disap- peared, the peasants believed that the boys had been kidnapped, and their tongues cut out and placed in the in- sulators in order to carry the sound.
 It doth not appear that the tele- phones in China are managed by girls, but it is to be hoped they are. Tele- phone girls are a highly civilizing influ- ence, as those who are in hurry to use the telephone discover.

There is in lower California a strange colony of which the outside world rare ly hears. It is made up of outlaws, and some of the most notorious es- capped criminals have taken refuge in u. They live in . strange, rugged stretch of country, with the Gulf of California on one side and range of foothills winch spread down toward the Mexican border on the other. There are no ports at this point on the coast of California, and no railroads reaching in from the other direction, so the men are completely isolated. They are practically prisoners, because they dare not venture out but no effort has ever been made to disturb them in their chosen refuge, though they have been congregating there for years.
