in glands Roman Relics.


Great interest attaches to the eZcaya-
tons which are being conducted at the
Dorsetshire village of Fifehead Neville,
under the direction of Mr.. Wingfeld
Neville, OF Sherborne Castle. So far
the remains of a Roman residence,
probably that Of Roman magistrate,
have been unearthed, and there is evil
dence showing that further finds may
be expected. A beautiful mosaic pave
ment has just been uncovered in what
was apparently the chief department
of the house, and also a bath-the
square red Roman tiles in perfect pres
ervation-and numerous walls and
other masonry, with bits Of pottery,
etc. There are ample indications that
there existed here considerable settle
ment, and it is believed that archaeolo-
gical investigation on a larger scale in
the district would be amply rewarded.

Boston,s Low Birth. II a te.

Not since 1894 have so few children
been born in Boston. In 1901 the birth
rate was only 27.10. During the year
there was an actual gain in population
of only 1915. The proportion Of native
whites of native parentage is now only
thirty-siX per cent of the whole popu-
lation, and many Of these are but two
removes from an immigrant ancestry.
1t is very evident that the old American
stock is dying out and that it will in
evitably be replaced by the newcomers
Of the end Of the nineteenth century
and the beginning Of the twentieth.
The foreign-born element constitutes
about one-third Of the population, but
Contributed about two-thirds of the
births Among the Italians there were
Z: AL births, among tie Russians 1887
and among the Irish 359i:.-l~ z...s
The highest birth-rates in the city
are found in those wards where lives
the poor and the foreigners. The low.
est birth-rates are found in the Back
Bay and in the South End. in the mid
die of Roxbury, in West Roxbury and
in Jamaica Plain. Three of these wards
actually show an excess Of deaths over
births.-The Medical News. G+<ss.

The most ardent advocate OF the pull
pit will scarcely claim that its power
has increased as much relatively DUR
Ing the two decades since these expert
students Of society passed Judgment as
has the power of the press.
Nor Is the Journalist seen to be any
less potent when we turn to the art Of
government and to the realm Of state
craft. IF l could not be a king
would be a journalist" said King Hum
bert of Italy. The two most distinct
i've gatherings which Prince Henry Of
Prussia attended in this country We're
those of the captains of industry and Of
the journalists, and his Difference to
the power of the journalist was so OBJ
viOus that 1t occasioned remark in Ger
many. 1T is not too much to say"
said Justice Simeon Baldwin, of the
Connecticut Supreme Court, at recent
meeting of the National Bar Associa-
ton, that modern government could
not exist without its support from
journalism, and this less from the di-
rect influence it exerts than from the
publicity and close scrutiny Of official
action which it secures. Until hun
dred years ago legislatures the world
over sat with closed doors.
With such waxing power in shaping
the thought and action Of men it be-
comes imperative that the journalist
should stand for the highest social
ideals and for the greatest degree Of
independence of thought and action
possible. And it is the testimony Of
those whose opportunity for observa-
ton has extended over the requisite
number of years that never was the
press of the country so untrammelled
by partisan, sectarian and racial preju-
dices as to-day. If both journalist and
clergyman, speaking eX cathedra in
sermon and editorial, speak with less
authority than formerly, it is because
the basis of authority is shifting from
opinion to fact, and both readers and
hearers are saying, with increasing en-
phasis: Give us the data of life. We

TRANSPORTS SAVED MUCH,
Difference Between Cost and Contract
Service Placed at S2,248,430,

Washington, Nov 1S.--It has been
thought proper, in an official report,
to refer to the army transport as d
most costly luxury" says c. r.
Humphrey, quartermaster Of the army,
in his annual report to the secretary Of
war. "As TO its costlincss l submit
actual figures and facts. / do not
know in what respect the service can
be looked upon as luxury, unless
reference is made to the excellence of
the enlisted mems accommodation. If
1t be luxury to furnish our enlisted
men with the class Of accommodations
now provided in all army transports,
then | favor the continuance Of that
luxury.
sin my opinion the transport service
needs 30 defense whatever and no ex.
cuse is offered for it by the department
charged with its operation. l do not
claim that there is any memorable
military necessity for its continuance,
but submit that the service is un-
questionably " very valuable and
economical military convenience"
The total difference in favor of trans
port service for year is placed at
ss,94S, 430 in the report. Interest on
the cost and transport service for the
year cost $3.50, COG in the Philippine
archipelago, while the cost of trans
porting the same number OF passengers
and animals, and the same amount Of
freight and mail under the prevailing
tariff rates of the Philippine steam
ship companies, the report says, would
have been S1,O27077.
During the year 1880 passengers
were carried by the transport service
between the United States, the Philip.
pine islands, the Hawawiian islands
and Alasl,a. Remains Of 800 officers,
enlisted men and civilian employees
were brought home, and there were
transported between the states and
the Philippines 37,661 pieces Of bag
gage, much mail and Ss,0l6,OOO in
United States currency.

Two amendments were offered in

provisions Of the treaty to all other
countries. The other abolished the
differential duty on refined sugar The
report says: "The enactment Of the
bill into law Is necessary to give effect
to the convention providing for reclp-
'rocal trade between this country and
Cuba, This results not merely because
the convention itself provides that it
shall not take effect until the same
shall have been approved by the con-
grcss," but because the constitution

The report says: "Thc duty on sugar
was placed above the protective point
for the purpose Of revenue. Tile house

duction in the interests Of reciprocal
trade agreement, which it authorized
the president to make. The duty on
tobacco has for years been much higher
than any necessity required on account
