Andrew Carnegie, in his reply to an

Canadian born persons from all parts Of
the continent to be held i'll July, says:
"That people of Canada and of the Uni

remain divided, talking of boundaries
and military forces on one side or the
other to protect one from the other, is
not to be thought of. Some day they will
come together and move together in all
international affairs. Indeed, they will
not be different nations They will be
one politically, as they are racially."

Of indigestible, wind-infated securities, is

Franklin Murphy has issued his annual
proclamation, forcibly diasolving those
trusts and corporations organized under
the laws of the State which have not
paid their annual tax.
No fewer than 927 of these creations
of the Commonwealth, capitalized in the
aggregate at $239000,O0O, are ushered
out of existence, and with their dissola-
ton is destroyed the fond hopes of thou
sands of stockholders. The following

Since the State set up its corporation
incubator some years ago it has man
aged to hatch altogether 1920 foreign
and about 1000 domestic companies.
There are all kinds Of wrecks in the
list, and their debris is scattered pretty
generally over the United States and
Alaska. Mining companies, bologna
trusts, railroad corporations, steamship
lines and corn cure creations are inter
mingled Unfortunately. Some were
formed in good faith, but met with re-
verses. Others were conceived in fraud,
continued in dishonesty, and their fate is
welcomed by their promoters and officers.
Prior to this year the largest number
of corporations dissolved at one time by
the Governors proclamation was one
year ago. There were then 6S7 names on
the list, but they were capitalized for
only $62,O0O,000. In one year, therefore,
the financial Importance of the annual
calamity has increased fourfold. In 1901
the number of corporations dissolved
was GAG, and they were capitalized at
$49.OO0OO0
These figures, though they are start
ling, do not tell the whole story Of the
States whirlwind harvest. There GRE
two other ways in which the corporations
have met or are meeting their fate Dur
ing the past year, and especially during
the months since Jan. !, there has been
an astonishing rush to both the State
Court of Chancery and to the United
States Courts for the appointment of
receivers for corporations alleged to be
and which generally are insolvent.
Between April 1, 1902, and April l.
1903, receivers have been appointed for
127 corporations, capitalized at $274,000.-
600. One of these, the National Asphalt
Company, has actually issued S19.529.-
454 in stock, and another, the National
Salt Company, has issued $12,O00,OOO in
stock. These applications for receivers
are increasing month after month There
are thirty-eight in the State courts alone. Z

The RaShi-bazouk,

Like each of the various clans of the
Kurds. the 0ashi-bazouk can easily be
distinguished by his costume. His
shoes or "yemenys" (meaning leather

iugs. which leave the knee exposed, are
deliberately embroidered in black, his
short Turkish trousers are of home
snun. while about his waist is Il short
sash Of wool or silk, surmounted by Il
leather belt in rich coIOrS and embossed
lg red. This is divided into three or
four sections. in which he keeps his re-
volver. his chibouk or pipe and his vat
aghan, always kept sharp. The bashl-
baZouks never carry daggers, as the
CircaSsians do. \ cartridge box hangs
from the side. as also Il small silver
snutfboX. They wear two Jackets
the under one with short sleeves and
the outside one with long. At the ell
bow is an opening in which they carry
in q leather bag written quotations
from the Koran as a talisman to pro-
feet them from the bullets Of the ad-
versary. About the neck IS chain or
silver coins. from which is suspended a

Strange stills are those used by Jap
tnese and Chinese boys Instead OF
having side blocks. like the American
boys, they have foot rests mortiSed on
the silt stick and projecting backward.
These stills can only be used where the
japanese boys feet are bare, for the
silt stick must be grasped between the
first and second toe OF each foot.
Spanish boys are great silt walkers,
and they invariably use sticks that
bound there as well as at the ankles.
In some of the islands Of the south
Pacific ocean very rough sport is en-
gagged in by boys on stills. Perch"d
high on their thin support and with
their faces and skins grOtcsquely paint
ed, these semisavage lads, sometimes
as many as twenty at time, meet and
try to trip each other up or knock each
other down.
Like most sports ard games silt
walking is Of very ancient origin. Cut
in the stone which forms one Of the
oldest Pharaohs tomb there is a crude
picture OF man leading a procession
and walking OH stills. This ancien,
stilt walker must have been very skill
full. for he is holding no side sticks.
but is using both hands in holding 4
greut horn to his mouth, which he is
apparently blowing. -WaShington Star
