the struggle for the survival g ;he

Ianan*:ivo (Which in the vernacular
means tic "tuwn Of a thousand,'' al
luclny TO the thousand Hovas who first
garrisoned it, is an oblong city built
, on d granite rock like a huge i.{x's
back, nearly Two miles in length, >1und-
ing among rice fields cultivated for
centuries and irrigated with care. The
| villages as one approaches the capital
| reveal complete change of race and
! different mode of life from that seen
! among the tribes of the coast. The
country houses are cubes OF sun-dried
bricks, with small aperatures on the
western sides, to avoid the east winds.
The foreign commerce of Tananarivo
lis carried on chiefly by the same firms
| that are established at Tamatave, and
is almost conf ned to wholesale deal
ings in cotton. The population is
| dense, the climate relatively cool, and
the people am enable to ha bits of cleans
illness. No textile fabrics-except q
few native lambas-are produced here,
so that everything points to expan-
sion in the cotton trade. The Hovas
| have adapted themselves to civilized
customs and wear European clothing.
Perhaps no city of this size in the
| world is so lavishly endowed with
! churches, cathedrals, monasteries,
chapels, schools, hospitals, etc., az il
Tananarivo. There is a school of man.
ual labor, where every branch Of man
ufacture is taught, and many hand.
| some specimens of work are shown.
AS Tananarivo is built on hill, loco
motion is laborious. Round the base
of the hill a magnificent esplanade, 10
miles in circumference, has been con-
structed, and this forms the city's
broadway for carriages (of which only
! a very few exist), horses and prom
enaders. Circulation over intermedi.
ate parts of the city must be madeein
filaniana, or chairs, the hire of which
is regulated by tariff; for, unless ono
be a trained athlete, walking is pain
full. A great many people use horses.
To the weekly market of Tananarivo
with every describable object for sale.
The Hovas are essentially a race Of
| barterers, and everything, according
to them, is merchantable. The most
scrupulous honesty is imperative. For
merly, any case of larceny was pun
ished with immediate stoning to death.
Now, of course, this barbarous custom
| is restrained by an efficient police
force. .-
| The salubrity of Tananarivo and
the Imerina province in general is
proverbial. The temperature never
| exceeds that Of southern Europe. On
the coast, essentially tropical condf-
| tons prevail. VIM H. HUNT. :

RICH PLACER FIELD
 IN COCHISE COUNTY
Good Pay Gravel Found in
 Chiricahua Mts
IT HAS GREAT PROMISE

In COchise county. at the ioot Of the great ChiricahuA range O. mountains, a very important d,-cJy- cry of placer gold has been made within the past few weeks. The gold bearing gravel extends along the foot. hills 6 distance of five miles, and down toward Sulphur Springs valley for three miles. Tue gold IS coarse placer gold, of high grade, running oyer SIS per ounce al the mint. It resembles the best placer gold of California and looks as il it had been washed long distance. But little work has been done, only few opening, and none of those in the main washes where placer miner would look for the great est results. In one place a small trench of about 50 feet in length. two feet wide an! IS inches deep, has been run in one of the Impressions or small guiches or the hillside from which nearly $l 900 of beautiful, brigh. gold has been taken ou. by banning. The hills surrounding the gulches all prospect.
 Adjacent 10 ,hi, placer ground there are number Of quartz claims bearing gold, ye. the gold in the placer ,ound do ,s not resemble quartz gold at all. The most of these veins carry sone base metal, copper sed lead. but all assay in gold. There is DO water in he disirct for wsshing gold on a large scale and only by try process Of placer mining can this ground be worked. Strange to say, these big washes have never been prospec,ed. A few shatis sunk to 6 depth oi s, 10 or 20 feet to bedrock, will soon pro:e the value O. this gold placer felt. Tha mines are near the Southe:o Pacific railroad, no. over 10 miles from that great thoroughisre.
 A contribute, to the Los Angeles Mining Reyis z says tsere is no dout, but that .hs country surrounding this new discovery will prove of very great value Plenty of water could be ob- tsined near the valley and pumped up to the mines il they are found to be ss extensive and rich ss appearances in- dicste.
 Col Thomss Esing oi Los Angeles, president of ths Southwest Miners Asso iation, who recently visit q tha. portion Of Arizona, has some 50 or Uore ounces of placer gold from tbis section.

Right of Purveying Them Sold TO
Syndicate.
The Grande Chartreuse, | read, has
sold the right of purveying its famous
liquors to a syndicate. Hitherto a lay
brother has been at the head of this
business. Until comparatively recent
times the. signature of the Rev. Pere
GARNER on the label was the guaranty
the purchaser required of the authentic
ity of the contents of the flask which
the gastronomer likes TO find conve-
nient at his elbow at the coffee and
cigarette stage Of his repast. Pere
GARNER was an extremely shrewd man
Of business and more than one law
suit bears evidence of the care with
which he watched over the financial in
terests of his society, and the praise
worthy promptness he evinced in COM
ing down on the falsifier and the forg-
er. When he died, not many years ago,
his place was difficult to fill. Hence,
perhaps, the present arrangement.
Sdlaething OF the kind had already
been under consideration. hear the
piice the Chartreuse asked is put at
$4,000 900 francs. There are four va
rieties of the liquor, though only two
are familiar There is the Elixir,
which was once to be bought on the
spot in wood ceased bottles at the equiv
alent of four-and-nine. There is the
Liquor Verte, in the pint-and-a-half
bottle, the local charge for which was
three-and-eight. and the charge in
London, say, four times that figure.
| There is the Liquer Jaune, less potent
/ which has cost me two-and-six the reg
ulation flask, in the Chartreuse lodge
/ And there is the Liquer Blanche, 9th
/ erwise the Balm of the Chartreuse.'
which used to be locally retailed at the
same price as the Liquer Verte. Some
fifty plants, seeds and flowers, you are
10 understand, go to the compilation OF
these delectable drinks, the chief being

COSMOPOLITAN NEW YORK oITY.
steady Increase In Percentage of Native
Americans


The cosmopolitan character OF the
population Of New York city is admit
ted by ALL and has frequently been
commented upon. Considering the con
stant great inflow of immigration it is
impossible that the people could be
otherwise than very mixed. Notwith
standing that. however. the last cen
sus shows that there is at same time a
steady increase in the percentage OF
native American population. When
the census OF 1890 was taken the prof.
est of a Greater New York was yet un-
der discussion. The total population
u what is now the Greater New York
was then. in round figures, 2,l60,0
the number OF native born inhabitants
being 100000, and of foreignborn in
habitants $4,000 The percentage Of
foreign born Inhabitants was 1920 By
the new census figures. just published
the population OF New York city
3,4S7 ,2O2, and is thus divided: Native
born inhabitants, 2,167,122, and for
eign-born inhabitants, 1,27O,000. The
foreign-born population of New York
city has increased 100000 in ten years,
and the native born population in the
same period has increased 647 900,
nearly twice as much. The percentage
of foreign-born inhabitants in 1900
was 36.95. or one and a quarter per
cent less than in 1900. Ten years ago
there were $4,000 Russians in New
York. now there are 10000, gain of
100000. Ten years ago there were SO, =
900 Italians in New York, and now
there are $4,000. Those of other ma
tionalities increased during the decade
as follows: Poles, from 5000 to $4,000;
HuEgarians, from $4,000 to 81, 900;
Swedes and Norwegians, from $4,000 tc
10000; Bohemians, from 5000 to 15,.
900, and Chinese, from $500 to 5000
Germans now form the largest foreign
born element in the city. The English
Scotch and French again did not in
crease their numbers during the dec
ade, while the proportion of Irish wa.
actually less in 1900 than in 1890. Dur

c. S. Johnson OF Castle Rock tells

possession what | consider an inter
esting relic. 1t is the stove that was
used in the first capitol building in
Wisconsin in territorial times at Bel
mont and in which the first legislature
convened. How did | obtain posses
sion of it? Why, Judge Dunn, the
first Judge of Wisconsin left it to his
son. John. who used to farm at Castle
Rock, and he sold it to the school in
Gas Hollow. When new schoolhouse
was built several years ago the old
stove had to make way for more
modern and new one and bought the
old one 1t is of a peculiar and very
odd shape and | doubt IL another one
like it can be found in all this country.
1t is about 2x3 feet in size and consists
of six pieces with an iron band around
them. You can remove the band and
it all comes apart 1t is made of cast
iron about half an inch thick. All the

Yes; it is a good heater in spite of its
age. II the old capitol is ever moved

ought to go with it.

Brief Book Review.

The following brief paragraphs are
copied from Encounters Between Fa-
nous Men" the forthcoming book by
]. Ellington Billdad They simply
show whittier the historical novel is
drifting:
"As George Washington came within
sight of Rome he observed that the
city was in flames, and having drunk
all of the fire extinguisher from his
bottle at the previous stop, he turned
his horses head and was about to gal
lop away. when his quick ear caught
the strain of music. George paused
and looking upward beheld Nero
perched on the city wall playing a vio-
lin solo. Waving his hand in adieu to
the cruel tyrant, George Washington
rode away, leaving the cracking
flames behind him, because the Father
OF his Country had no use for cracking
flames where he was going.
This is the only instance on record
of a meeting between George Wash
ington and Nero. Its authenticity can
not be doubted. inasmuch as the writ
er's grandfather was present when il
happened. ."-Ohio State Journal.

THE QUAGGA'S HEELS.
Used Efrectually In Putting Great Tige
Ra Jah to Sleep.

Ra Jah To sleep.
An amusing story is told by Cleve-
land Moffet in his paper on THE Wild
Beast Tanner" in st. Nicholas. Well.
it was here that | heard the story
Bonavita. it appears, was standing on
the bridge one morning, when there
arose a fearful racket in the runway,
and looking in he saw the quagga tear
ing along toward him. He concluded
that some one had unfastened tho
door. and was Just preparing to check
the animal, when around the curve
came Rajah, the tiger in full pursuit.
Bonavita stepped back, drew his re-
volyer, and as the tiger rushed past.
fired blank cartridge thinking thus
to divert him from the quagga. But
Rajah paid not the slightest heed, and
in long bounds came out into the arena
hard after the terrified quagga, which
was galloping now with the speed of
despair. A keeper, who was sweep
ing, clambered up the iron sides and
anXiously watched the race from the
top. Bonavita powerless to interfere,
watched from the bridge. or all the
races ever run in circus, this was
the most remarkable 1t was race
for life as the quagga knew and the
tiger intended. Five times they cir
cled the arena, Rajah gaining always.
but never enough for a spring. In
the sixth turn, however, he judged the
distance right. and straightway
black-and-yelow body shot through
the air in true aim at the prey. Where
upon the quagga did the only thing
| quagga could do-let out both hind
! legs in one straight, tremendous kick;
and they do say that quagga can
! kick the eyes out of a fly. At any
rate, in this case a pair of nervous lit
| tie heels caught the descending tiger
squarely under the lower jaw. and put
him to sleep like a nice little lullaby.
And that was the end of 1t. The
quagga trotted back to its cage, Bona
vita put up his revolver, the fright
ened sweeper climbed down from the
bars and Rajah was hauled back ig-
ANONYMOUSLY to his den.
