Gold Found i'm Tunis.

A strange piece of news comes from Tunis. It is stated that gold deposits have been discovered in the regions of Sousse and Bizerta. Samples are said to have yielded from two. to three ounces per ton, with 8 minimum of 16 pennyweights. A writer in the Matin goes so far as to declare that some specimens obtained near Kafrouan have produced in the laboratory the fabulous yield of three and four pounds to the ton. The mining de- partment in the Regency Is reported by the same authority, to have at first refused to issue permits until it was proved that the gold existed, but is now granting them at the rate of 100 a day. A specialist in Paris, however, refuses to believe in the authenticity of the discovery, on the ground that the geological formation of Tunis does not admit of the existence of the con- glomerate that is said to extend for g distance of over 30 miles, being toe recent" as until modern times it was partly covered with water.

OF COLONIAL DESIGN.
The State Building at Louisiana Pur.
 chase Exposition.

The State Building at Louisiana P,lr-
 chase Exposition.
 The Connecticut state building for the Louisiana Purchase exposition, de- signed by Edward T. Hapgood, archi- tect, of Hartford, follows colonial lines in accordance with the directions of the commission. While in gen. eral way the front of the Sigourney house in Hartford has been kept in mind, the building, because of it's in- dividual plan, and on account of cer- tain defects of design in the original, differs from 1t in proportion and detail. The introduction of the entrance door way, taken from the old Slater house in Norwich, a perfect example of early nineteenth century colonial architec- ture, has also been a factor in giving the building decided Individuality.
 It is proposed to place the house we'll back from the street, with circu- lar walks and flower gardens in front. The entrance is through a ten foot en- trance hallway into a center hall, 20x3S feet, with wide double stairway beyond. Both these halls will be pam elled to the ceiling with colonial wood work, finished in white enamel. An elliptical well will form gallery about the center. of the main hall.
 At the left of the main hall is the large parlor, finished entirely in old woodwork, taken from the Slater house in Norwich. On the opposite side are the library and dining room, while in front are two rooms, one for the use of the commissioners, the other for MT Vaill, the secretary and treasurer. At the rear, beside the commodious lava tories, is a large veran5.s 12 feet wide and 63 feet long. This is double yeranda after the style of the southern colonial houses, the upper part being reached from the landing of the stair way. This it is believed, will prove a most attractive resting place for the numerous visitors, since the rear of the building is surrounded by grove of trees.
 Tn the second floor, opening out of the large center hall. are two state bedrooms, two bedrooms for use by the members sof the commission and two for the use of the resident hostess and one of the lady managers. There are besides necessary bath rooms and rooms for the use of the secretary In the third floor are accommodat tions for the servants.
 The building will be covered with staff and painted buff and white, the whole treatment, both inside and out side, being in harmony with colonial tradition.

A PECULIAR. HOTEL.

It's Rooms Named for States Instead
 of Being Numbered.
 s'In little town in the backwoods of Mississippi" remarked a travelling man, " there is a peculiar hotel. 1t is just like any other hotel except in the way the rooms are named. They are not numbered, as is generally done, but each room is named for state Of the United States.
 < When I stopped at the place was assigned to room called Delaware. It was correctly named, too, for 1t was one of the smallest rooms in the house. A man who was occupying New Hampshire made complaint to the landlord that the man in. Maine was drunk and boisterous and was thus keeping him awake. This seemed strange when we recall that Maine IS prohibition state. Two men up 1n Montana were keeping up the repu- tation of the wild west by engaging in noisy poker game. A big fat capl- talist had New York;, which was the best room in the house. The room named 'Alabama' is too ordinary for anything, and farmer was occupying it the night was there.
 "It was funny to stand in the office and hear bell boy tell the clerk that towels were wanted in Iowa and that the fellow in North Dakota was kick ing like a steer because he had no ire. Send two Manhattan cocktails up to Mississippi was one of the orders that the clerk gave Be sure to call the man in Florida at 5 o'clock in. the morning. said one of the employees And thus 1t went his hotel is cu- riosity to the travelling public. It IS conducted by an eccentric old fellow, but where he conceived the idea of naming rooms after states 1 do not i know."- Birmingham Age Herald. {.

rhi. Wa. six oenturie. Ago.

Some of the ancient agreements be
 tween the little Swiss states were very noteworthy. In 1243 Bern and Fribourg made covenant which last
 ed for more than 200 years, by which they agreed that even a war between them should not destroy their agree
 roent, that no war between them should be entered on without a pre-
 vious attempt at conciliation, and that within If days of the end oi any feud all territory conquered ana spells of war must be returned tc their owners. Cities which $50 years ago could agree to such terms de. serve to live in history! Basic Schaff. hausen and Appenzell a few years later were wise and far-sighted enough to agree ito sit still and seek conciliation" in case of differences be. tween them. Just over 500 years ago the Swiss confederation was found. ed by the three tiny mountain states
 Uri Schwys and Nidwalden, which
 remaining small and unimportant themselves, have, by the force of the idea of union, drawn to themselves from time to time larger states and powerful cities, till to-day the Swiss nation can, in proportion to it's size and population, boast of al proude1 history and greater benefits to man. kid than any other nation in Flu. rope.

HosPITABLE AND APPRECIATED

This is hospitable and an apprecia- ted country. During the year just ended S03,000 immigrants arrived in our ports. This is the greatest immi- grafton known in any year in our his- tory, the nearest approach to 1t being that of 1882 when the number was 7SS,- GOO. If we add to the total for the past year those who come in from Can ada and Mexico, the total is advanced to S50,000. There are seventeen States of this Union, nineteen states of the German empire, and, six American re- publics, each of which has fewer peo- pie than all told, notes MT $ .E. Moffet, in an article on the subject.
 MT NIoHett points out that there are more people of Irish birth and parent age living in the United States than in Ireland; that, in fact, the center of the Irish race has been transferred from Ireland to America. Other races, he says, are now undergoing the same process. The excess of births over deaths in southern Italy is about 13S, GOO a year The immigration from that region to the United States in 1902 was 15S,O0O and the figures for the present year will be much larger-that is to say, we are absorbing the entire in- crease of the population of southern Italy, and something more. For every boy born in southern Italy, two men emigrate to the United States. This excess of male immigrants is charac- teristic of all the countries that con- tribute to our population except Ire, land, and how important a factor ir our national development 1t is may be ' judged from the fact that in 1900 we had 3,356,OOO native white Americans with foreign fathers and native moth era, against 1,67O,00O with foreign mothers and native fathers. The Slo , walks of Hungary are another national ity which is being transplanted bodily to this country. Their increase al home is 28,O00, and this is less thar the annual immigration. We also take nearly all the natural increase of thu Russian Jews of Austria-Poland ant
 the Croatians and Slovenians of Aus | tria- Hungary.
