COSTLIEST OF ITS KIND.
New Map of Saxony Which Was Made
at an Expense OF One Mil
lion Dollars.

The little kingdom of Saxony has
new map, says the Hartford Courant. 1t
is made on the scale of to 25 900. and
consists of 123 separate sheets. 1t ex-
hibits all the contours of the earths
surface within the Saxon boundaries
with the utmost eXacIneSS. SaXOny is
the smallest kingdom in the German
empire 1t is about the same size as
that of the grand duchies of Baden and
of Mecklenburg- -Schwerin. The terri
tory of Alsace-Lorraine, recovered from
the French in 1901, is also of about
the same size. SaXony contains 5,787
square miles. 1t is 1,741 square miles
smaller than the kingdom of Wurtem-
berg, and 23,495 square miles smaller
than the kingdom Of Bavaria.
The Saxon government made this new
map at cost of 1000. 900 marks, or near
ly $1,000, 900. The Berlin correspondent
of the New York Stats Zeitung says
that this is the costliest map in the
world, and he is probably right, for
they know great deaf in Germany about
mapmaking. We fancy that this great
piece of work was begun in King AL
bert's time: but it will not add to King
Georges popularity if much of this
large sum has to be paid now. Taxes
and social democrats are the two things
in respect to which the little kingdom
Is showing gains in these days, and
doubtless with direct relation between
the two. King George is not thought to
be so ready as King Albert was to pay
for scientific work out of his own
pocket

TAUGHT BOYS TO SMOKE.
SchO0Ima sters I'm England Gave In
structiOns i'm Use of Pipe and
Tobacco 100 Years Ago.

At first sight the recent agitation for
legislation to prevent the sale of to-
bacco to boys seems to show state
of affairs previously unknown. That
such is not the case, however, is
shown by story of the closing years
of the seventeenth century as related
BY De Rochefort, the French traveller,
says the New York Herald.
During his visit to Worcester, Eng
land, he records, he was asked by his
guide if it was the custom in France,
as in England. that when children
went to school they carried in their
satchel with their books their pipes
and tobacco, and that, at stated hour,
the master smoked with them, teach
ing them how to hold their pipes and
draw in the tobacco" There is ample
confederation that this is no mere idle
tale.
What may be called the golden age
of smoking was reached in the reign of
Queen Anne. For over century the
use of tobacco had gradually but stead
lily increased in popularity amongst the
people of England. From the end of
Queen Anne's reign until the last 80
years or so the practice of snufing the
herb usurped the place of the pipe
among the cultured, though smoking
never lost it's hold upon the working
classes.

The judge had had his patience sore

and by men who tried to evade jury

never would get to the actual trial of

German who had been accepted by
both sides jumped up the judge was
