Cattle raising, which was formerly
one OF the principal industries" of Cuba,
is being encouraged by the govern
ment. In 1902, 2G7,2S1 head Of cattle
were imported, and out Of this mum.
Der 176,962 were slaughtered. 1t Is,
therefore, evident that the importa.
lions greatly exceed the need CT home
consumption, and with its natural in.
crease and the numerous tracts of land
suitable for cattle raising, it may not
be long before Cuba will have turned
the tables on the United States in this
branch of trade.

Gov. Bailey stated that Kansas will

Gov. Bailey stated that Kansas will
have about 70 per cent. of a full orn
crop. He bases this opinion upon what
he has seen and heard Of it, as he
has been travelling over the state. A
full corr crop, according to Gov. Bal
ley's idea, is veil up toward the larg-
est crop the state has raised in the
past. In 1889 Kansas produced 273,-
100000 bushels. Seventy per cent. of
this would be something like 1907
100000 bushels, and Gov. Bailey be-
lieyes the crop this year will be well
up toward that figure.

Prince Khilkoff, the cars minister
OF railroads, is perhaps the least Rus
sian looking man in Russia. He is the
greatest railway builder In the world
and during the eight years he has held
his present position almost 13, 1000 miles
have been constructed-more than one
third the railway mileage of the Rus
sian empire. To him is due the ST.
berian railway construction and the
fact that Russia is far more formidable
in the far east than ever before.

"A student of music of the a%borigines,
Mr.. Farwell, states that the Indians
have innumerable songs which ON
form to a definite melodic system.
Many persons have been led to believe
that Indian music consists wholly Of
drums, whoops and yells, but, in the
face of 20 years serious study of the
matter and thousands of photograph
records, this belief is fast disappear
ing. These melodies are all indis-
solubly linked to legends, myths, cere-
monials or religious rituals of the
greatest poetic and dramatic beauty.

DIR. Charles w. Benin, of the health
department of Chicago, has discovered
a new vaccine. superior in many re-
spects to that now used by physicians.
One Of the chief objections to the vac
cine now used is the long time neces-
sary for it's application. It often takes
80 and 40 minutes to inoculate a per-
o. with the virus because of the
glycerin with which it is mixed. This
disadvantage is obyiated by the re-
suits obtained by DR.. Benin. Instead
Of mixing lymph with glycerin in or
der to secure q virus he has discovered
that chloroform will accomplish the
same result.

Gambling in New York seems to be
hydraheaded. Last year Mr.. Jerome
asked for an appropriation Of $50 900
to suppress the game, and after he had
spent it the announcement was made

the board Of estimate and apportion-
ment by asking for 500, 900, saying
that the sum was needed to secure
evidence against and prosecute per-
sons maintaining public gaming places.

remaining small boys, by the action Of
the building inspector, who caused the

has for some time been trying to force
Seward to move from the location. but he
refused to do this and the building in

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE TALK
Carol Norton of New York City Lectures Il
Large Audience.
cHRIsTs TEACHINGS FORM ITS BASIS
Knows No Greed Nor Color and
L. Merely a Return to
the Religion of the
Savior.

Carol Norton, Christian Scientist and
lecturer of New York City, gave an address
to a large audience at Boyd's theater last
night on Christian Science and its field.
DR.. George L. Miller introduced Mr.. Nor
ton in a few words in which he declared
that this is an age Of advancement and one
wherein all religious movements are up
lifting and upbuilding. There is a certain
sacred strength, he declared, about the re-
ligious worship OF all peoples, no matter
how low and how foreign from our, own
views their religions may be. Christian
Science is the outgrowth of recent thought
and is deserving Of attention and consid-
Grafton from every thinking person.
Mr.. Norton said that Christian Science Is
a return to the religion Of Jesus Christ
and knows no creed or color. II was
founded on the works of the Savior and
follows His teachings entirely. Christ healed
not only mental illnesses, but physical as
well. The Bible is filled with the instances
Of His having healed many who were suffer-
ing with divers diseases. Modern thinkers
have declared tha' these manifestations Of
his power to heal sickness were miracles,
Granted that they we're so, Christian Sci
ence seeks to renew the work which is
merely a natural law laid down by Christ
and which has for its teaching the fact
that physical illnesses are but the results
Of mental diseases, of moral corruptness'
