A LEGATION COURT" has been
planned for Washington City.
The scheme is to arrange the for
eign ministers buildings as to ad-
nit of large square or court in
the center containing walks, lawns,
fountains and statuary. A library
building common to all the lega-
tions, where documents and ar
chives may be kept, is also sug
gested. The proposed legation
buildings will be entirely detached
from each other, with ample space
for side and front lawns, and all
will open into the park or court in
the center. The cost will be de-
frayed by turning over to the
builders for several years the
amounts allowed by the govern
ments for rental purposes. China
will be the first to build.

THE Geological survey is about
to issue complete report on the
coal production OF the United
States for the calendar year 1900,

vania and the Cum berland region of
Maryland, which caused large
falling off. The aggregate pro-
duction in 1900, including anthra-
cite and bituminous, was 240, $685.

IF the systems already begun
are continued the United States in
its next war will have a well train
ed body of civilians upon whom to
draw for service as naval off GERS.
Two officers of the naval reserve
of New Jersey have been assigned
to regular duty with Admiral Hig-
ginson's squadron. Their assign
ment is for one week in each case,
during which time they will per-
form Itch and other duty and be
subject to the regulations of the
navy. The action of these cases,
which was taken at the personal
request of the officers concerned,
establishes a precedent in the as
signment of naval militiamen to
regular service on board men of
war

SECRETARY RooT has received
an unusual complaint from George
Wadsworth of Mellwood, Nebraska,
charging the government with
being responsible for depriving
him of the society of his wife by
sending her to the Philippines as a
school teacher. 1t seems that the
lady, who was formerly a school
teacher, became tired of matrimo-
nial joys and secured one of the
Philippine appointments and de,
parted for her post before hel
husband knew anything about hel
intentions.

PAST ASSISTANT SURGEON ROSE
NAU of the Marine hospital service,
who has been trying to extermi-
nate rats by spreading among
them disease similar to hog
cholera, has announced his failure.
His experiments show that if it
were possible to keep food away
from rats until they are ravanously
hungry and then feed them upon
the virus they would be quick ly
exterminated On the other hand,
it is not certainly effective if given
in small amounts, the experiments
seem to demonstrate that large
primary dose proves fatal and a
small dose is not only uncertain,
but produces future immunity to
the disease.

STATE DEPARTMENT officials do
not credit the report that Germany
is trying to acquire an island off
the coast of Cuba near Nuevitas.
They point out that the treaty of
peace ceded small outlying islands,
and that in case a small island is
owned by private citizen of
Spain, as is said to be the case in
this negotiation, this private citi-
zen could not transfer it in such a
manner that sovereignty would
attach.

The press comments on the
death of Sam Strong, the million

that a man is not always measured

Everything in the paper is readable. and the
