and the Seminary Of St. Sulpice, are
flourishing Catholic institutions, while
the University Of Maryland occupies a
conspicuous position in educational
ranks. In 1878 Enoch Pratt, a success
full merchant of Baltimore established
free circulating library which now
comprises handsome central building
and four branches scattered through
the town. Several other valuable IL
brarles are to be found in the city. The
Catholic cathedral and the residence of
Cardinal Gibbons are objects Of inter-
est to the visitor Among its superb
public buildings is the City Hall, which
is built of white marble at cost of
100000. 1t occupies an entire square.

number Of the buildings come from
quarries and clay beds adjacent to the
city The water supply of Baltimore
was first taken from Jones' Falls,
about seven miles above the city, but
in 1881 further supply was brought
seven miles through twelve-foot tun-
mel from Gunpowder River, entailing
an expense Of $4000,O0O. The aque-
ducts leading from the storage reser-
voirs have capacity for delivering
100000 gallons daily. Baltimore is a
great railroad center and has great
freight and passenger stations. Many
public squares and parks dot the city,
one of them, the Druid Hill, containing
704 acres.

Rent Paid In Peppercorns.

A pepper mill is uiece of silver not
often seen on tables nowadays. English
housekeepers, however, still use the
pepper mill, and American silversmiths
sometimes keep it to meet the demands
of old-fashioned families who prefer
to grind their own pepper rather than
risk the chances Of adulteration. The
pepper mill dates back to the time
when pepper was scarce commodity
and was always ground at the table
from the peppercorns. Pepper was so
valuable in those days that rents were
often paid in peppercorns, and the high
prices they brought were among the
incentives that induced explorers to
brave the dangers Of the unknown
deep. If short passage could be dis
covered to the Indies, it was agreed
by all that wealth of pepper could
be easily brought to Europe.

Among the advantages promised t

is to be made to dOmesticate the zebra
for us in the recently acquired posses
slons. 1t is proposed to catch large
numbers of wild zebras and allow them
to breed in captivity, training the
young as draught animals. No attempt
apparently will be made to tame and
train the captured animals themselves,
although this has often been accom-
pllshed with selected individuals.
The zebra proper is very difficult to
tame, but allied varieties, such as the
South African quagga, are more easily

walls still swayed in the breeze, en-
dangering the lives of those who ven
tured too near. BY day the scene was
one of chaos. At night it was weird.
Courageous and Hopeful.
Baltimore has cause to shudder. The
loss approximates $15O,OOO,OO0, of
which so per cent is covered by insur-
ance. The loss sustained by the ces-
satlon of business will add much more.
There are $4,000 persons out of work
1t is a blow such as none but Amerl-
can fortitude could endure.
Yet Baltimore courageously fronts
the future. She foresees a new era.
She is planning for new city to be
built on the ruins Of the old, aud 1t is
to be better one. There will be wider
streets, better sanitary conditions and
improved fire protection Out Of the
ashes of the old will come forth a new
Baltimore, more splendid than that

The Stricken City.
The stricken city is one Of the most
picturesque municipalities in the Uni
ted States. 1t has many claims for dis
tinctiOn other than its vast commercial
interests. whose various ramifications
extend all over the world. 1t is IA
nous for its ornamental streets, mag
nifcent buildings, noted institutions Of
learning. handsome monuments, and as
the seat Of the Catholic hierarchy In the
western hemisphere. 1t is known as
the Monumental City" from the state
ly shafts that grace several Of its pub
lie streets and squares. The most nota-
bic Of these are the Washington mon
ument and the Battle monument Its
streets are broad and level, the main
thoroughfares being magnificent ave

angles to one another and generally

December. 1776, the Continental Con-
gress transferred its slttings from Phil
adelphia to Baltimore where it met for
two months. The population of the city
during the next 100 years rose to
100000.
Baltimore was the theater of stirring
events in Revolutionary days. In its
history are recorded the bombardment
of Fort McHenry by the British and
the battle of North Point, where the
citizens Of Baltimore repealed the ad-
vance of the British in the war of 1912.
During the Civil War the city was
torn by different sentiments-loyalty
to the North and sympathy for the
South. The Sixth Massachusetts Regi-
ment was attacked by a mob in its
streets and blood was shed. The citi-
zens Of Baltimore atOned for the treat
ment of this command during the
Spanish-American war, when the Sixth
Massachusetts was going south. by ten

Onstration.
Great in Manufacturing.
No city in the United States has a
greater diversity Of manufactures. Its
foreign trade aggregates $100,000,00O
a year 1t has immense foundries and
machine shops, while in the clothing
and tobacco industries thousands of its
inhabitants find employment. 1t leads
the world in the oyster trade and also
in the fruit-canning industry. There
are over forty establishments in the
city for packing oysters and fruit, at
which 10000 hands are employed. Up
ward of sixty carloads of oysters are
shipped daily to the city from Chesa-
peake Bay while the season is on.
The total number of manufactures in
the city before the fire was 6,300 and
$4,000 persons found employment in
them. In grain export it ranks second
only to New York. From its harbor
more than dozen steamship lines ra-
diate to important foreign and dOmes-
tic ports. There are 800 miles of paved
streets and 800 miles Of cable and cleo
trio railway traverse the city and con-
meet with suburbs within a range of
twenty-five miles.
AS an Educational Center.
BaltimOres places of learning are
among the foremost in the land. The
Johns Hopkins University is known
throughout the universe. In its differ
ent appointments it equals. any instl-
tuition of its character in the country.
The Peabody Institute, which was the
recipient of over $1,O00,0O0 from the
late George Peabody, who was in busl-
ness for several years In Baltimore,
also ranks high as an educational in
stitutiOn. The Loyola College, which

The japanese have attracted so much
attention and admiration by their re-
markable progress in the ideas and
practice of Western civilization, az
well as by their native genius In art,
that the results Of an investigation of
the brain weight Of the japanese peo-
pie as compared with Europeans must
interest everybody. For ten years
Professor Taguchi, of Tokyo Univer.
sity, has been studying the brains OF
his fellow-countrymen. He shows that
with adults the brain weight compares
favorably with that of Europeans OF
similar stature, and may even be
slightly superior. There is one striking
difference, however, In the fact that the
japanese brain grows more slowly dur.
ing infancy and early youth than is the
case with Europeans. In Japan, as
everywhere else, there is found a posi-
tive relation between brain weight and
stature-that is, the larger brains, gen.
orally speaking, go with the larger

Founded by Lord Baltimore.
The city was laid out in 1880. Cecil
Calvert, the second Lord Baltimore,
after whom the town is named, was
given a grant of land by King Charles
|. of England, comprising the territory
now included in the States Of Delaware
and Maryland. Cecil never visited the
territory himself, but governed it by
deputies and with manifest fairness.
Baltimore was laid out In half-acre lots
on the Patapsco River, an arm of Ches-
apeake Bay. Twenty-Five years after
its founding it contained only twenty
five houses and 200 persons, but from
this on its growth was more rapid. In

OLD, BUT ENJOYS SPORTS.

Man Has Lived More than Century,
but Is a Fine Athlete.
San Francisco boasts the oldest Of
| living athletes in the person Of Cap
tain Diamond, who has lived on this
mundane sphere for 100 years. He
does not feel the weight Of years and
is as vigorous to-day as the majority
Of men half his age. He is steady
armed and strong limbed; keen Of eye
and ear, he reads and writes with
ease.
This hale old man has lived In three
centuries. Born In Plymouth, Mass,
May /, 1895, and now In better con-
dition physically than most men of
60, and with a probability Of OUTLYING
thousands who are but half his age.
Up to fifty or sixty years ago, Cap
tain Diamond lived the ordinary life
that men do, except that he did not
use coffee, tea or alcoholic stimulants,
and had not married. Being then half
a century or so of age, he began to ap-
preciate life enough to wish to pre-
serve 1t.
"You always get what you prepare
for" said the captain. most of us
expect to die at 10 or thereabouts; we
educate ourselves for death, give up
to 1t, and 1t comes for that reason.
The first thing l did was to make up
my mind that I was going to live
mind is the biggest part Of lt-having
mind to do the thing. The next is
to control appetites and passions.
"Meat l gave up as merely a stimu-
liant compared with fruits and grains.
Men take care to limit the food of
their horses, knowing that free access
to the grain bin would founder them.
But man puts no curb on himself. He
gorges to repletion three times a day
and uses up his vitality in trying to
assimilate food that he does not need.
When he has his fill Of simple fare he
must needs look about for something
else to tempt jaded appetite. Sugar
and spices are added to make the pal
ate accept that which its natural taste
would reject as unnecessary. Thus the
body becomes loaded through every
tissue with inert matter until some
thing breaks down"
At the early age of 30 or thereabouts
Captain Diamond gave up the use of
meat. In the first place mainly from
compassion for slaughtered animals;
later on because he found the absti-
nence was good for him. The two
meal-a-day plan was then tried and
the following bill Of fare adopted af-
ter half a century Of experiment:
BREAKFAST.
Cup of hot water.
Wheat or barley mush.
Boiled Goldfish and potatoes.
Whole wheat health bread and olive Gil.
Two poached eggs.
Apple sauce.
Fruit in season.
LUNCHE0N-Seldom.
DINNER.
Hot water.
Vegetable or rice soup.
Whole wheat bread, olive oil.
Sweet potatoes.
Beans.
Hot milk.
Fruit In season.
"Never use white bread" says the
captain; ut is not worth digesting."
1t viii be noticed that sugar does not
enter into the bill Of fare. That is
one of the greatest differences between
this mans food and what is ordinar-
lily eaten. 1t is not unusual for peo-
Pile to give up the use of meat, but
sugar is a harder trial than anything
except liquor and morphine.
