Professor william BENJAMIN Smith,

Professor william Benjamin Smith,
author of THE Color Line" in making
his argument for the proof of he in
feriority of the negro to the white race,
backs his statements by the latest sta
tistics from ~anthropology. ethnology,
sociology and the kindred sciences. In
order that his arguments shall be as
conclusive as possible, he goes into the
question with the greatest minuteness.
Among other interesting facts that he
prove by exhaustive tables of compar-
ative figures are, that the average stat
ure of the negro is less than that of the
white, tnat the black is decidedly weak
er in lung capacity and in chest eXpan-
sion than the white, that the Negroes
respiration is considerably more ire
quent than that of the white. indicating
a tendency towards disease, that the
mean lifting strength of h negro Is
lower than that of the white, and that
the power of vision of IL negro is IN
ferior to that of the white. As a final
support to these facts concerning the
negroes physical inferi"ri;y TO the
white, he shows by statistics; that the
death rate of the negro at times exceeds
thai of the white by So per cent.

An instance of the application of a
precocious knowledge of the law by a
child occurred in a Partisan school last
January. In France education Is OBJ
Egatory, but the law cannot compel
children to remain in school after the
age OF Is. This law, needless to re-
mark, is usually a dead letter, but on
the occasion in question a pupil sud-
denly got up in the middle of a lesson,
gathered up his books, placed them
neatly in his desk, too up his hat and
moved toward the door. Where are
you going?" asked the teacher, with a
certain amount OF acerbity. Sir" re-
piled The boy, with Irritating noncha-
lance. Il was 13 years of age four min
utes ago, and you have no longer any
right to keep me at school,"

A nunaber of European railways have
recently been utilizing motor cars of
the gasoline or steam type, in order to
improve the service and decrease the
cost of operations of branch lines
where there is but limited traffic and
long trains are usually operated at a
loss. The use of these al is also be-
ing introduced to meet the severe COM
petition of the electric car for inter-
urban and suburban service. BY the
use OF the steam car or the gasoline
motor car the cost of transportation is
but a small fraction of the cost by
locomotive and regular train service.

WAR ON
Clarke's Friends Recent
 Treatment of EI-Leader

The news comes from Dawson that there Is war on in the independent Hu- knon party. It is claimed that Joe Clarke is not satisfied with the consid- eration that has been shown him by the element which managed the campaign for Dr. Alfred Thompson in the ecent election and that he is disposed to. make trouble for the organization at the com ing election for members of the Yukon council.
 It is said that one of the principal ob- jections Clarke has made is the disposi- tion to have him run for councillor In the Dominion creek district instead of for one of the Dawson districts from which he was elected two years ago, IE is said the Dominion creek district Is strongly liberal, 30 strongly SO that even the government machine can carry the election there, and that the plan Is to kill Clarke off by securing his defeat for office.
 On the other hand, 1t iS said the Thompson -Black-O'Brien wing of the Yukon party assure the friends of Joe Clarke thatthe selection of the Domin- ion creek district for him is a compli- ment to Clarke. They say that Clarke il the only man in Yukon territory that can carry the district against Land reville. and that his selection to make the race in the doubtful district is an admission of his popularity and stand ing.
 To this argument ClArke's friends re- ply by pointing to the movement that was started at one time to get him to lead a forlorn hope against Robert Lowe in the Whitehorse district.
 The leaders Of the two factions of the Yukon party insist that while there is some differences of opinion as to the proper course to persue there is the ut- most harmony in the ranks and that there is 10 danger of a split How ever, the transactions of the last few weeks do not bear out this assurance. Two weeks ago Joe Clarke lead Oolt out of a convention for the Bonanza dis trict after his candidate, John Gillis- pie, had been defeated for the nomins- tion for councilman by Charles Reed, by a vote Of 29 to 2S.
 Recent arrivals from Dawson predict SD interesting election next month.

A Clos. Call.

Last Sunday evening at 11:30
lightning struck the late Dan
Sinclair's house. The main bolt
entered through the roof of the
kitchen tearing a hole of several
square feet. A number of boards
in the ceiling was torn off. The
utensils in the kitchen were bad
ly scattered and broken. A
meat saw hanging on the wall
was thrown clear across the
room. 1t seems that secondary
bolts struck the house at differ
ant places. The insulated wire
from the nearest telephone pole
to the instrument in the house
has totally disappeared having
probably melted by the fierce
charge of electricity from the
cloud. Marks after the danger
Gus visitor are found at differant
places on the house both inside
and outside.
There were a number of peo-
pie in the house at the time the
lightning struck it. Fred, Willie
and Andrew Sinclair was there;
Jim Boutwell, and wife and
daughter; also Mrs. Church,
Mrs. Sinclair and Edith and
Sadie Sinclair. Andrew Sinclair
was sitting near the kitchen door
ane received slight shock, tho
rest we're untouched.
It's needless to speculate on
the consequences if the chief
bolt had struck the other part OF
the house or If it had struck in
the afternoon when the house
was crowded by people attend
