BY means of a vaporizer this liquid is

Languages of India.

The English have been ,the rulers of
India, or a large part Of it. for a CEN
tury at least; yet there are only 252,-
3ss persons in the Indian empire who
can speak the English language. This
number, compared with the total pop
ulation. may be called infinitesimal.
There are 147 languages recorded in the
census as being spoken to-day in the
whole country, but twenty-five OF them,
which are spoken by 221, ,157,673 per-
sons, are closely allied members Of the
Aryan sub-family. Nowhere is a nom
Aryan tongue superseding an Aryan
OneS~and it should also be noted that
the classical Sanscrit for many CEN
turies has been profoundly influencing
the modern vernaculars. The transla-
tion Of "Ramayana," one of India's
great epics, into a dialect called
Dwadhi, by native scholar who lived
at the time of Shakespeare. is now
''the one Bible of 900O0,O0O people,"
Among the many Indian languages,
it is pointed out in the census reports,
there are some with great literatures
and vocabularies, rivaling in richness
the English, French or German. While
some. too, have no past, others have
lived 1000 years. 1t is not easy to be-
lieve, in view of these facts, that the
English language will ever occupy the
field in the Indian empire Certainly,
IL must take an exceedingly long time
for it TO drive out the richer native
forms of speech.

There are about 5000 miles of rail-
way in Greater London, and it is es-
timated that something like 00,0OO,-
900 separate journeys are made by
passengers annually. The number of
Journeys on an average weekday is
over 100000. An idea Of the vehicu-

cred from the statement that in twelve
hours 16,054 vehicles of all kinds
passed a particular spot in Piccadilly.
and a full service of $50 buses pass
the Bank of England in an hour. The
number of passengers carried by the

after citing the Venezuelan arbitration and the Alaskan

Is Leopold Insane?
san Francisco, May 27. 1904.

Is King Leopold becoming mentally
unbalanced? And will it be necessary
for the Belgian Government to insti-
tute a regency and to intrust the SOW
ereign power to his brother, the uni
versally respected and exceedingly pop
ular Count Of Flanders? That is a ques-
tion which is being asked to-day, not
alone at Brussels, but in the various
European capitals. and which is a mat
ter of no little concern to the State De-
partment at washington. For the
Kings extraordinary action in repu-
dating without any reason the agree
ment made in his name and by his ex-
plicit orders with the American con-
cessiOnaires of the -Hankow
Railroad by his plenipotentiaries, ex-
Minister de Volder and Colonel Thys,
has not only led these two gentlemen
TO sever their connection with his bust
ness enterprises, but has likewise re-
suited in an international incident"
between himself and the United States
Government. For the latter has no in
tention of permitting him to carry out
what appears to be his project of con-
verting into a monopoly of his own this
essentially American enterprise in
China and of ousting therefrom by un-
feir means the American syndicate to
which on the strength of the recon-
mendation of the State Department,
the concession was granted. 1t is no
doubt partly due to this that the Bel
gian Envoy at Washington has made
arrangements 20 spend the summer
within easy reach of the national capi-
tai. King Leopold has also quarreled
with the directors of the Congo Rail-
road TO such an extent that they have
all resigned among the number being

this effect being printed without denial
or interference on the part Of the au-
thorites in several of the leading pa
