Anaemic boys and girls are now
being ordered by doctors to take
singing lessons, because such per
sons do not know how to breathe
properly, and the singing master
teaches them the act Very few
people utilize the whole of their
lung power when they breathe,
but get into the lazy way of mere

Candidates for the army whose
chest measurement lacks the
requisite number of inches take
singing lessons to increase their
girth, or, if their voices lack the
musical element, they attend
breathing classes and learn where.
their respiration should come
from-that is to say, how they
should draw each breath, how
long they should retain it, and
how emit it. Though mankind
must breathe in order to live, few
human beings know how to
breathe properly.

DIAMOND CUTTERS.
Gem Industry Now Fully Established
in New York.

III N-W 49, a.
Gem cutting in america has
ceased to be an experiment and
become a recognized industry
recognized not merely at homo
as one more thing that Cncle Sam
can do we'll, butrecognized abb DAD
rs one more thing in which
Yankee competition is to be
feared, says the Brooklyn Eagle,
Time was when the cutting of
precious stones was admittedly
one of the things that Europe
could do better than America, and
America made no attempt to dis
pute the supremacy. And for Eu-
rope one might almost read "Hol-
land" for Holland had practically
a worlds monopoly of the indus
try. And all this not more than a
generation ago,
1t was in 1873 that the first
rough or uncut diamonds were inn
ported into this country-and
then a few only, valued at only
S176,426. For five years the ex.
pertinent continued with so little
success that in 1878 the imports
dropped to $G3,270. 1t rather
looked as if Uncle Sam, jack of all
trades that he is, could not mas
ter this one. But that was the
turning point. From then on the
imrOrtations Of rough diamonds
increased year by year, at first
gradually, but finally by leaps and
bounds, until at present they are
running up in the neighborhood
Of $10,0O0,0O0 a year and still in
creasing. And the Importation Of
Uncut diamonds is, needless to
say, an exact measure of the
growth Of the industry.
Diamonds are quoted because
diamonds are recognized as the
most difficult of all gems to cut.
Tot merely are they the hardest
: EN- known, but they require a
more complicated cutting and a
rreater skill in bringing out their
eauties. And with diamonds,
the impOrtatiOns in the rough rep.
resent absolutely the quality cut,
for there is practically no home
production, while almost every
other known gem is produced in
marketable quantities some
where in the United States. So
hat the increase in the rough int
oorts is a more fair measure of
the growth Of the gem-cutting in
dustry.
Fifteen or 20 years ago there
was not gem-cutting establish
ment of any Importance in the
city. One leading firm had Il cut
ting department which was main
ly engaged in recruiting. 1t OK
listed, that is about all, because it
was necessary to the complete
ness of the establishment But
like all the other jewellers in the
country, they imported practical
ly all their gems ready cut. And
the two or three struggling lapi
daries that did manage to keep
their heads above water in some
dingy, obscure corner of the jew
elers' district were chiefly engaged
in recruiting. All of them tOgeth-
er could not have made one es-
Enlistment of any reputation for
sOlvency, although there are many
such to-day down on Maiden lane
and Nassau and John streets.

THE CANDIDATES FOR TRINITY.

William Edward IIartpole Lrcky
has retired from the representation OF
Trinity, and has left the ring free for
the three lawyers who are contesting
the representation of the university.
Mr.. Lecky for once made Il break in
the traditions of the Trinity represent
tution. Its two seats had for very
many years been in possession of two
Castle lawyers. Most of the members
of the Irish bench have been members
for Trinity while they held the law
ohiccrships Of the Crown. Mr.. Lecky's
claim to the seat was challenged by
Mr.. George Wright, X. c., who hps
since received his reward, but FOR
once Trinity decided to substitute Il
scholar for lawyer, says the Dublin
Freeman.

MAYOR HAYNES IN OFFICE.

After two years of Republican rule,
minneapolis has n Democratic mayor
once more. On Monday, Jan. 5, Mr..
]. C. Haynes was indicted into office,
and ID. Percy Jones retired after max
ing good record for himself during
the four months that Doc Ames was
II fugitive from justice. The cere-
mony of Inauguration took place in the
council chamber In the new City Hall
and was Democratic in its simplicity.
In his inaugural address Mayor
Haynes displayed an intimate knowl-
edge of the municipal system of the
city and made most favorable i'm
preston OH all who heard him. If the
suggestions contained III his address
are put into practical effect the city
of Minneapolis will redeem itself from
the disrepute into which it had fallen
during the Ames administration.
The new mayor started out by say
ing that the present city charter is ''an
Anticipated document" and that it
ought to be superseded by an np-to-
date charter at the first opportunity.

Native Americanlsm Again.

Editor of The Irish Standards:
Well, well! That's queer way for
Mr.. Linehan to write Disappointing
a priest somewhat responsible for
Native Americanism in Philadelphia
in 1874 and then to mean an apostate
priest who left this city twenty years
before and who had nothing whatever
to do with creating the condition"
That's carrying "once a priest, al
ways priest'' to the extreme limit,
isn't it? And then Mr.. Linehan "never
criticises priests who are subordinate
to their superiors and in full COM
munion with the Church." My! Oh
my! Then when he speaks of priests
creating conditions which he la
ments, he ought rightly to have said
they were apostatcs.
Well, others are not so sensitive and
have criticised Fathers Moriarty and
Hughes. So it was not censurable
error to believe Mr.. Linehan was
simply repeating the old tale.
And then to fall back for support on
apostate priests! Well, even the one
whose ashes rest in Nashua, N. H.
Hogan-didn't create Native Ameri.
canism in Philadelphia. He did more
than that. Respectfully,

Without the fear of his fate, another

Without the fear of his fate, another
computer came forward recently to de-
clare that the proportion Ut unmarried
girls and women was increasing. AS
matter of fact, it is steadily dimin
ishing in the United States and, as
veteran advocate Of the extension of
the legal rights Of women has pointed
out, there are now in the Unite States
100000 more single men of marrige-
able age than there are single women.
the official figures being as follows:
Unmarried men, 1O,44S, 1853; unmarried
girls and women, 7,573,S19.
The male population Of the United
States, through the excess Of male I'M
migration, and the higher male birth
rate, is more than million in excess
Of the female The span of life is,
on the average, longer for woman
than for a man, and the manageable
age for women is several years young
er than the average for men.
AS consequence of this the num-
Der of widows is very largely in excess
of the number of widowers, the figures
being 100000 and 100000 respec-
lively. There are more divorced
women who have not remarked than
there are divorced men, and for all
these reasons the number of single
men of manageable age is larger
than the number of single women.
In New York it is 24O,0- o, in Penn
sylvania 100000, in Ohio 10000, in
Illinois 100000, in California 10000,
in Texas 10000 and in Kansas $4,000.
In Massachusetts the number of I'M
! married men exceeds the number of
unmarried women by only few thou
sand. In Utah there are $4,000 un-
married men and $4,000 unmarried
women Of marriageable age In Wash
ington, the capital, the number of
single men is $4,000 and Of single
women the same.

vestigation by the state as to title,
rental, and security.
The report emphasizes the desir-
ability of inducing landlords to con-
tinue to reside in Ireland, and, with
this purpose i'll view, it says an equi-
table price should be paid to owners,
based upon income, and that provi-
sion ought to he made for the resale
to owners of mansion houses and
demesnes. The purchase price should
either be assurance by the state of
such income, or the payment of a
capital sum producing it, at ) per cent.
or 3A per cent.
IF guaranteed by the state tenants
repayments should he extended for a
term Of years, securing reduction OF
from Is to rs per cent. OH rents. 10
do this may involve some assistance
from the state beyond the use of it's
credit, and the report considers that
such assistance would be justified
fully in the future welfare of Ireland
and the settlement of this vexed prob,
lem"
1t was after the report was issued
that Captain Shawe-Taylor started for
America to confer with President
Roosevelt. Captain Shawe-Taylor has
not been an evicting landlord. He is
an Irishman by birth and is proud Of
his country, and for that reason his
countrymen in America should treat
him with courtesy.
