An Interesting Invention.

The vaillard- Desmaroux Sterilizer,

basement Of the Jefferson street school-
building IL one Of the most ingenious
contrivances we have seen for a long
time. The water from the tank first
passes through charcoal filter, which
clears it, then through two long coils
Of pipe to tubular boiler, which brings
it up to temperature Of 23J. r. then
back through two coils OF pipe parallel
ing the cold-water coils which brings it
down to temperature low enough to
drink as 1t comes out. The water Is
gradually heated as 1t goes in and
gradually cooled an 1t comes out The

IN TIBET

The status Of affairs ln Tibet. In tho
sacred city Of Lhassa. is Of no less in
tcrest TO the world than the condition
OF the moment at Port Arthur 1t ls
quite as dramatic, and it is pregnant
with far more consequence to the future
of Ashland therefore of the world
since we have elected Asia to be the
battle-ground for the Armageddon which
determines the relative power of the
powers A British mission appeared be-
fore the sacred city last week, the mill
tary commission sent under Col Young
husband by Lord Curzon, Viceroy Of
India. The grand lama, the Dalai-La-
ma, left the city, he would not see it
desecrated, and he is in hiding at the
great distance of eighteen miles. Which
shows that the situation in Tibet is not
even solved by it's chief ruler
Tibet, the future of Tibet, is of i'm
portance to the world because it will de-
termine the fnuture of British and Rus
sian. 1t is of more Importance than
Manchuria because at present it looks
decidedly as though the Japanese would
control in Manchuria, and BATTLE the
Russians of their intention of getting
to the sea by the far eastern route. De-
feated in Eastern Asia the Russians
must turn to Central Asia They will
turn to Tibet because they think they
can Russia is after territory anywhere
and the sea where she can find it. Brit
ain has been to some extent resolved
upon shutting Russia from the sea,
wherever the attempt at exit was made.
This is not good policy; somewhere
Russia must debouch on the ocean. But
the way is not through Tibet. Yet Tibet
means the way, because if Britain fol-
lows her policy of mastery inactivity
here, as heretofore, then Britain's pres
tige is gone in Asia, and Russia is SUI
preme from Teheran to Pekin.
How can this be? Exactly beCaI So
Tibet is after all the heart of Asia. 1t
is the roof of the world" but much
more it is the religious center This
very Dalai-Lama is the head of all
Buddhism. He is the incarnation of
Buddha, in all his attributes and power.
He has temporal and spiritual control
of his people, in the traditional Roman
fashion. But he, the great lama, has al

$50 spiritual and suporstltional control
OF the BuddhIsts throughout the great
continent II Tibet donas Britain Sue
ccssfully at Lhass1, Britain need never
again hope To- control q sphere OF in
nuencc' anywhere, In china or In In
dia. Failure at Lhassa means failure in
India after centuries and I'm the valley
Of the Yangtse after decades Certain
ly Britain cannot afford this, however
much she might possibly afford to let
Russia win its way out of land-locked
confines.
But il Great Britain holds back from
Tibet, Russia comes in, and that means
the supremacy Of Russia the inferiority
of Great Britain, not only at Lhassa,
but at Delhi and at Picking. Therefore
Britain must, as an act OF self-preserv-
alton, win it's way at Lhassa. And ever
since Warren Hastings Britain has
sought to establish relations with Tibet,
never so ardently as under Curzon. The
r betans themselves are more than
willing. They are eager to trade with
the Saxons, quite as much so as with
the Slavs. And the lamas object to
this commercial freedom Of their peo-
pie. Not only the Dalai-Lama, the heir
of Buddha. but much more the bureau
cracy at Lhassa, which is even more SUI
preme than at st. Petersburg. The chief
lama is himself a young man. For a
long period the DALLAS before him have
died, conveniently died before they grew
up to take the power from the lesser
lamas. This young man contrived to
live. But he has little real power, and
could not give his people what they
want if he knew what that was On
the other hand, the Amban, the Chinese
representative-for Tibet still is a part
of the Chinese empire-welcomed the
British mission warmly. and hopes for
the freedom of the country through this
means. Yet only the Great Lama can
treat with the British mission. And If
he refuses to come out of his hiding,
Britain must remain in Tibet until he
does. This will explain the probable
stay of Younghusband. For the sake
of Tibet itself, and for the sake of
British prestige, this mission of Cur
IONS should succeed.-St. Paul Dis
patch.
