WOMEN TEACHERS NERVOUS.
German Psychologists Find Large
Proportion Seriously Affected
Fear Deterioration of Race.

Two eminent German psychologists,
DR.. Rolf Wichmann and DR.. Adolf Biz
ham, have arrived at some instructive
results from inquiries concerning the
prevalence of bad sight and nervous
disorders among women students and
teachers Forty-two per cent. of the
women teachers have to wear glasses,
as against ten among women not so
employed, and "a among male teachers.
Again, 40 per cent. Of the female
teachers are affected with nervous dis
orders, while among men similarly
employed only II per cent have nerv-
GUS complaints. Long hours and i'll
ventilated rooms are held to be the
leading causes OF these complaints
among women. but the result Of these
Investigations has given considerable
encouragement to the growing opinion
in Germany that general deterioration
of the race must follow if women's en-
ployment be not carefully chosen.

Occupations and Longevity.

With regard to the occupations which
ensure longevity, 1t is the universal tes-
timony that clergymen reach the high
est age. being close run by gardeners and
vine-dressers. Ordinary agricultural
laborers, although their occupation is so
largely in the open air, are not conspicu-
Gus as long livers. except in France.
Sweden ard England. People working
with wood are longer lived than those
whose occupations are with metals, and
both attain higher age than textile
workers and workers in chemical in
dustries. The shortest-lived people are
miners. except in England. where the
superior mining regulations and admira-
BILE sanitary arrangements have bene-
fetal effect. In England and Norway
sailors and fishermen live to far greater
age than in Germany and France.

THE OPIUM TRADE
Both Chinese and Churches Opposed to Philippine Bill
The Former Want an Indiscriminate Trade and the Latter Want It Stop ped Altogether.

Manila, July S.-Representatives of the Chinese chamber or commerce and the evangelical union argued for six hours today in opposition to the opium bill at the public discussion of that measure on the occasion of it's third reading. The Chinese advocated that there be no change in the present indis- criminate sale of opium. with addition al government supervision of it's im- portation.
 The evangelical union delegates urg- ed the prohibition of the sale of opium by the United States commission, and exposed the most sensational conditions prevailing, allegeing that the Chinese are tampering with the newspapers and raising fund destined to be used in bringing about the defeat of the bill The object Of the opium bill is to create an opium monopoly in the ar | chipelago and sell it to the highest bid der. 1t is based on the theory that il will restrict the use of the drug to Chinese who have used it all their lives and prevent it's indiscriminate sale tc Americans and Filipinos, many of whom are falling victims to the use ol | opium.
 Sales of the drug are to be controlled ] by a concessionary who may acquire the right to sell opium in the islands by bidding for the privilege every three years. There are provisions for licens- | es and control of the traffic

SHAMROCK TRIALS.

Sir Thomas Upton Is Engaged in a Series of Experiments which Dis- close Nothing.

New York, July S.-Over a leeward and windward course of thirty miles, starting at Sandy Hook lightship in rattling breeze, the Shamrock III today beat the Shamrock l only four minutes and nine seconds. If the figures told the whole story the cup might be safe. but they are deceptive.
 It is apparent that Designer Fife and Sir Thomas Lipton are experimenting with the new boat, and that changes are made daily in her ballast and trim to discover the effect upon her speed. On Monday in the windward work she simply outclassed her trial horse. She covered the fifteen miles to windward only two minutes and fifty-nine sec onds faster than the Shamrock I. Her ballast had been moved aft. with the result that she could not point so high | though it did not affect her footing ability.

THE COMMERCIAL WORLD IA LOST BASE BAlLISI
Delehanty Supposed to Have Fallen
 Into the Niagara.

Buffalo. N. Y, July S.-A close watch is being kept along the river below the international bridge for the reappear- ance of the body of a man, now be- lieved to be Ed Delehanty. the famous baseball player. who fell through the draw of the bridge last Thursday night. The then unknown man was put of a Pullman car on the Michigan Central at Bridgeburg. He started to walk across the bridge to Buffalo. The watchman on the bridge ordered him to return to the shore. The man sup posed to be Delehanty started to run toward the American era of the bridge. The draw had been opened to allow q boat to pass, the watchman says, and the man fell into the river and was drowned
 Superintendent Bennell of the Pull man Car company said today: II found in the valise left by the passen- ger put off the train a season pass to the Washington ball park, made out in the name of Ed Delehanty. In the suit case suit of clothes with Delehanty's s name on it was found.''
 Frank Delehanty of Syracuse, a brother of Ed Delehanty. and other relatives. came to this city today and identified the satchel that was left in the Pullman sleeper and the hat found on the bridge last Friday morning as the property of the missing man.
 There is, therefore, no doubt that the man who fell through the draw of the bridge that morning was Ed Delehanty, the famous outfielder of the Washing ton American league nine.
 The body has not been found. The river below the falls is being watched. There is no doubt that the body went over the falls long ago.

Athens, July S.-Agitation regarding the currant monopoly is daily growing more serious in Western Peloponesus or the Morea, south of the isthmus of Corinth. The peasants in the neighbor- hood of Pyrgos are practically in re- volt. They have destroyed the railway at several points because they were prevented by troops from seizing trains on which they wished to come to Athens and represent their views to the king in favor of granting a monopoly.
 Many Of the demonstrators at Pyrgos are armed and are keeping up a fusi- lade and are parading the town shout ing The monopoly or death." shouting their belief that the granting of the monopoly is necessary to enable the currant growers to live.
