IMMIGRATION FRAUDS.
Charitable Institutions In America
Filled Up With Alien Patients.

San Francisco, Nov. S.-United
States Immigrant Inspectors A. j.
Ridgeway, Charles w. Snyder, Anto-
Mo de la Tore, Jr., Thomas c. Craw-
ford and Percy Montgomery have for
warded to Frank p. Sargent, COM
missioner of immigration, their re-
port on certain frauds on taxpayers
being perpetrated by aliens.
The administration has discovered
that in nearly every state in the
Union a large percentage of the in
mates of asylums for orphans and in
sane are aliens sent to this country
specially for the purpose of being
placed in those institutions, where
better care and treatment are given
than can be obtained in similar insti-
tutions in Europe.
The inspectors named were ap-
pointed some months ago to investi-
gate the eleemosynary institutions in
this district as to the percentage OF
newly arrived aliens cared for.
The facts learned by them and EN-
bodied in their report have been kept
secret, and will be made public only
when Mr.. Sargent shall have present
ed his report and findings to con
gress. He intends urging upon con
gress the necessity of enacting Law
to abolish the abuse.
The local committee has been as
sisted materially in its work by Gen
Cecil Clay, chief clerk of the depart
ment of justice, who visited this dis

London, Nov. 9.-That Great Brit
aims recent diplomatic encounter
with Russia has stirred anew the
martial spirit of the nation was evil
denced today by the great crowds
that lined the route of the lord
mayors procession and cheered to
the echo the grenadiers and guards,
the clattering cavalry and the smart
appearing jackies and marines as
they marched along to the strains OF
the national anthem.
In its origin the mayors procession
was intended as an assertion Of the
Importance of trade and commerce,
long previously ground down by kings
and mobiles. The city companies
came into existence, formed a pow
erful municipality and, making Guild
hall their headquarters, took care, as
warming to all whom il might con-
cern to have the mayor Installed with
the utmost pomp. In the course of
time the ceremony lost this particu-
| tawdry pageant symbolizing the
growth and power of the empire and
the occupations and sports of the
British nation. The chief features oi
the procession were magnificent
floats emblematic of various periods
of England's history. Circus feature:
were introduced and men and womer
riders, gayly dressed, together Will
elephants, camels and other animals
made up the pageant. After thu
South African war there came an
other change in the character OF thu
pageant and for the last two or thre,
years it has gradually been change'
into a military demonstration.

LITTLE NEED FOR LANTERNS.
Conductors Now Seldom Carry Their
Lights in Taking Tickets Owing
to Better-LiShted Cars.

Modern railroadlng has driven the
passenger conductors lantern almost
out of use, says the New York Herald.
Two decades ago or less the pride of a
passenger conductor was his lantern.
Then the cars were not SO brilliantly
Illuminated as they are now and the
ticket taker had to carry his light on
his left arm in order to see the PASTE
boards as he passed through the dimiy
lighted car.
Ten or II years ago the conductors
INDUCED in considerable extravaganza
in the matter of lanterns. Some of them
were gold and silver plated. The up
per part of the glass globe was color
ed blue, and the name of the owner
was cut in old English letters. At the
meetings of the conductors associa-
ton manufacturers would arrange
great display of costly lights at one Of
tie hotels in the city in which the
meeting would be held. Some of the
conceits in the lights were unique and
the prices ranged from $25 to ten times
that figure. The glass and the plating
were kept in a highly polished state
and none dared to NEEDLE with this
part of the ticket puncher's equipment.
Conductors still carry their own Ian
terns-that is, they are on the train
ready for use-but there Is nowhere
near the need of them that formerly
existed.

10 as vigorous and husky as most men q
half his years. His marvellous voice, It
is true. has lost a little of Its strength
and volume, but his shaggy leonire head
is as impressive as ever.
It is understood that DR.. Hale will not
nold the position long. He is to spend
the winter in Washington with his son.
who is vice president of the Baltimore
& Ohio railroad, and he is engaged on
literary work which will occupy him well
into the spring; but after that is fin
ished he will return to his beloved Bos-
ton and leave the chaplaincy open for
some one of the young aspirants who
have been conducting an active canvass
for the place ever since DR.. Milbufn died.
So long as DR.. Hale is chaplain the
devotional services in the morning will
attract fully as much interest as any
other portion OF the senate proceedings.
Visitors to Washington will throng the
galleries at the noon hour just to hear
and see the eminent Unitarian divine
who is known to almost every grown
person in the United States by the things
he has written zst'-
DR.. Hale and Senator Hoar have been
Intimate friends from boyhood and it Is
touching to see the two old men together.
1t was due to the Massachusetts SEN
ator's suggestion that his old friend was
invited to become chaplain. 1t needed
only the suggestion to induce the senate
to act.

pared with which the slums of New York
and London are luxurious. The extraor-
binary part of it is that this restitution
is right in the midst of the city, within
the very shadow of the white house and
next door to the most costly mansions
Of the town.
Every square of the city is bisected by
alleys, Is or 20 feet wide, many of which
are built up with miserable shanties
rented at exorbitant rates to the poorer
negro population. These novels belong
to some of the wealthiest citizens OF
Washington and in some of them, hardly
big enough to shelter family of pigs.
three or four families of human beings
are huddled together in indescribable
dlth and penury-
The death rate among these wretched
creatures is simply astounding. Mr..
Riis puts the mortality among infants
less than year old at almost IS per cent.
There is no death rate equal to this any
where else in the civilized world. If it
were among white people there would
have been an cutlery about it long before
this, and the alleys would have been
cleaned out like the pest they are; but

change.
The peanuts raised in Senegal in one
year weighed more than 5000 tons.
France takes most of them. But thou
sands of tons 60 also to Holland and
Germany.
The little French and Dutch and Ger
man children do not, however, eat pea
nuts by the ton. Indeed, they hardly eat
them at all. The peanut in those be-
nighted lands is turned into oil instead
Of being turned into hungry children.
The only European country that treats
the Senegal peanut with proper respect
is England. It takes less than hun
dred tons out of Senegal but the nuts
are packed carefully in bags, and are
sold to confectioners, as they should be,
instead of to oil makers.
Senegal also raises great quantities
of that typical Arabian Nights grain, Sc

of large affairs where decided executive
ability and strong mental equipment was
requisite, it was common to find an in
crease in the cranial development, says
the jewelers. Circular Weekly. A more
detailed investigation among some of the
large metropolitan hatters revealed the
fact that many of them had, for years,
by means of an automatic measuring de-
vice, kept records of peculiarities Of the
cranial outline of many of our promi-
nent men, which had led to the discovery
Ito which, however, little importance
had been attached) that the skull often
shows decided increase in size after
middle age.
Thus, If It is fact that the human eye
depends largely upon the surrounding
bony structure for its size and proper
ton, it can readily be seen that, in the
case of an eye which presents abnormal
visual conditions, due to an inadeQuc te
development the increase in the size of
the skill referred to, accompanied as 1t
usually is by generally improved phys
ical conditions, would naturally tend
to a corresponding increase in the size
OF the eyeball, thereby contributing to
possible naturalization of the visual de-
feet.

Will wipe Inc AOSeAS
off the face of the earth. OF course the
owners of the shanties will oppose the re-
form, for it will mean the loss OF thou
sands of dollars to them and they will
have to invest their money in some other
way-which is always nuisance-but
sooner or later the change must come.
It would not be strange it the presi-
dent, who is a great friend OF Riis, were
to call the attention Of congress to the
matter in special message; for he Is
not accustomed to let SNUG respectable
ity stand in the way of what he knows
to be right.
The most astonishing thing about this
whole business is that the. disease and
wretchedness of the alley finds their way
inevitably into the very finest homes IN
the city. Nine-tenths of the domestic
servants of Washington are negroes and
large proportion Of these come from
the alleys In many instances they drift
back to the alley novels every night to
sleep. The peril that thus creeps into
the homes of the city can hardly be ex-
aggerated.
Domestic service in Washington is less
expensive than in any other city In the
country. The wages that are commonly
paid would not be conSidered for mo-
ment in any other community, but the
colored people who perform the service
are alley denizens. To wipe out the al
leys means an increase in the cost OF liv-
ing for them and an increase in the cost
of living must result in "a corresponding
increase in wage.

health. and when lie went back to his
law practice in Chicago he found to his
dfsmay that the threads had slipped
away from him and that his place at the
bar had been taken by younger and
stronger men. The time came when he
was practically dependent upon his pen
sion and that was nearly eaten up with
the expenses of medical attendance, for
he is a sad sufferer from the wounds
which he received in the war.
When he was in Washington last &C.

then that Mrs. Logan took his case In
hand. She went to the president and
made a fervid personal appeal for the
gallant old veteran. Sheurged that some
thing be done to rouse his courage and
give him renewed hope. The president
listened with deep sympathy and he
nromised Mrs. Logan then and there
that at the very first opportunity some
thing should be done for Gen. Black. The
word was carried to the invalid veteran.

gained his courage, and now the presi-
dent SEXES the first opportunity to carry
his promise into effect.

AN ACHIEVEMENT IN BUYING.
How a Texas House That Had Been
Burned Out Quickly Got
q New Stock.

One morning "a New York syndicate
buyer received the following telegram
from one of his largest Texas clients:
Burned out. Must have complete
stock at once. Have engaged temporary
quarters. Use judgment, but rush
goods"
The store was one of the largest in
its territory, says the Worlds Work,
and every day lost to business meant
tremendous loss of money. The syn
dictate buyer figured on large sheet
OF paper for 20 minutes. At the end
of this time he called his staff of buy
ers and explained the situation. He
had blocked out large commission
for each, with the exception of two;
they were to arrange for fast freight
shipment and to negotiate for imme-
date express shipment for goods that
went in small quantities. 1t was the
end Of the season and the stock OF
hausted. To his men he SAID: I've
got to buy 100000 stock and do it
right away" Every man went about
his task. The head of tho buying bu-
reau kept in telephone communication
with his men for three hours, advising,
planning, all the while assembling a
mass of goods Then he went out
himself and bought.
BY noon $4,000 worth of goods had
been secured by the buyers, and by
night half of it all was on the way TO
Texas. A week from the night OF the
fire the 100000 stock was ready in the
Texas merchants temporary quarters
and remarkable buying achievement
had been done. -
