HUNDRED YEAR LEASE.

BY Associated Press:
New York, June IA special from
Boston to the Times quotes the Jour-
nal of that city as saying:
It comes from excellent sources to-
day by way of explaining the present
active demand for the Atchison securi-
ties and the strength characterizing
the same, that influential directors Of
the road, including President Ripley,
have been in conference in New York
for two or three days past, with rep
resentatives of the Union Pacific road
and it's allied lines, that proposition
has been made by these people for a
lease of the Atchison property on a
gradual guaranteed rental.
The plan contemplates, it is claimed
lease for term of 100 years, gradu
ated guarantee of IL per cent on
the common stock for a period of ten
years, 5 per cent for the next ten
years, 1-2 for the third and 6 pei
cent for the remainder. The prefer
red stock and bonds will also get a
guarantee on the present basis Off
cials have thus far failed to confirm
the report.

RELIGIONS OF THE WORLD.

HEIIGlONS Of TIE WOneO.
Mulhall, the noted statistician, has
published some interesting estimates
of the numerical strength of the va
rious religious grand divisions of the
earth's population. For Europe he
gives the following figures: Christians
348, 100000; Mohammedans, 100000;
Jews, 6,500,000. In America there are
6,4OO,OOO Christians and 100000
pagans. No enumeration is made of
Jews. In Asia there are 100000
Christians, 1O9, 100000 Mohammedans,
100000 Jews, and 667, 100000 pagans
In Africa there are 100000 Chris
tians, 36,000,O0O Mohammedans, 400,-
900 Jews and 91,OOO,O0O pagans, and
in Oceania there are 100000 Christ
ians, 24,7OO,OOO Mohammedans and
4,4OO, 900 pagans.
1t is impossible to explain the
omission of the Jewish population of
America from Mr.. Mulhalls table ex-
cept upon the theory of topographic
al error in the press reports. The
number of communicates of that faith
in the United States alone was 1,O43,-
800 in 1900, according to the New
York Independents religious census
of that year.

KIPLING'S NEW POEM.

fishes a stirring poem by Rudyard
Kipling, entitled Bridge Guard in the

monotony of troops guarding lines of

Quick, ere the gift escapes us
Out of the darkness we reach
For handful of week-old papers
And a mouthful of human speech.
The concluding verse is as follows:
More than little lonely,
Where the lessening tail lights
shine,
No, not combatants only
Only detail guarding the line"

TO SELECT NEW LAND.
State Will Relinquish in Reservations
to Secure Grant.

w SSSOSV 0s0
A recent decision of the board of
state land commissioners will result
in the taking up of thousands of acres
of land in the near future. The work
will be gradual, but it will be contin-
uous, and the state will soon hold
title to all of the land which the gov
ernment has allotted it by the law
ceding sections 16 and 36 of each
township of the state.
The state land agent will soon begin
the labor of making the selections.
About 100000 acres in Indian reserva-
tions will be inspected by State Land
Agent Henry Neill and. if it is not
valuable will be relinquished and other
selections made.
Under the law the state has the
choice of waiting for the opening of
the reservations or relinquishing these
lands and selecting other sections. To
obtain the full allotment at once, it
will be necessary to pursue the latter
course.
In making the new selections, pref
erence will be given to agricultural
and timber land, which will be taken
one tract at a time, as reservation
land is relinquished.
