CHINA'S GREAT NEED
RAILROADS MUST BE BUILT TO
DEVELOP EMPIRE.
Primitive System of Transportation
by Coolies and Carts Over Roads
Scarcely Worthy the Name Now a
Fatal Drawback.

After the war is over China finds
herself in status QUO so far as rail
roads go The war is credited with
little influence in producing the prac-
teal deadlock in railway construction
now obtaining in the celestial empire.
An adequate railroad system would
be wonder worker, so great are it's
possibilities, but while the Chinese ap-
preciate the need of some railroading
to supplement the work of their can
ais and coolies they have no realiza
ton OF the development of a country
transported by coolies and in north.
ern China by carts is almost beyond
belief. In the interior of the greater
portion of the country coolies and
canals carry all the freight. What
this means can be understood fairly
when it is known that there is prac-
tically no railroad service at all in
the more populous and richest parts
of an empire of 400,000,000 people or
more. Most of the roads are scarcely

provinces the traffic in carts of a
rough sort dominates the entire move
ment Of goods to the seaboard. When
waterways are frozen a great part of
the year this is of necessity the case.
1t is in such regions that the first
hold of the railroads has come. When
the empire is served at all it is serv-
ed by waterways. Along the Chinese
coast there is series of navigable
rivers coming down from the interior,
a series which has few equals the
world over From the Yalu and Pei
Ho at the north to West river, pass
ing through Canton in the south,
these rivers seem to be formed to
reach inland from the coast, connect

interior cities with each other by way
Of the coast as well. About midway
between the north and south the
great Yangtse reaches far into the in

New York will soon have the great
est library building in the world. 1t
will have capacity for 100000 vol
umes, and its approximate cost will
be $4,000 O0. 1t occupies a frontage
of two blocks facing on Fifth avenue,

streets. It's site is that of the large
city water reservoir on the east side
of Bryant Park. When completed it
will be known as THE New York
Public Library-Astor, Lenox and
Tllden Foundations 1t will be a
combination of the Astor and Lenox
libraries. strengthened by the bequest
OF Mr.. Tilden. which will give total
endowment of about S3,500000. The
work of construction has been going
on since 1899 when the reservoir was
removed and the foundation begun.
The building, which is of marble, is
$50 feet in length and $50 feet in
width. The main reading room will
have capacity for 500 readers and, in
addition, there will be a general read

Won MoItke's Deserved Promotion.

On Gen. Count Schlieffen's retire
ment another Won Moltke will sue
coed to the post of chief of the gen.
eral staff of the German army, which
his famous uncle held for thirty years.
Not family or influence, but personal
merit, has won this high honor for
Count Won Moltke. Serving as a sub
lieutenant in the Franco-Prussian war,
he received the iron cross for bravery.
1t took him twenty years more to rise
to the grade of major. Later he was
aid-de-camp to the kaiser. After fur
Their promotion he was appointed to
the general staff, where he has been
quartermaster general Of the army.
The army maneuvers this year in
which the kaiser took so active a part
were planned by him. Now, after thir-
ty-five years service, he attains the
highest rank.

RUSSIA'S FALSE CAR
IMPOSTOR SAID TO BE AT HEAD
OF FIFTY THOUSAND MEN.
Movement Recalls Rebellion of 1878,
Which Is Said to Have Cost 100000
Lives-Started in Region Which Is
Now Affected.

The inflamed state of the people or
Russian character is again manifested
in the army of $4,000 that has gather
ed in a few days in the Volga region
to follow false car. This bogus
emperor, as the dispatches tell, made
his appearance near Penza, in the
heart of the vast region extending
westward from the Volga
This movement recalls the great
Pugatcheff rebellion of 1878, which is
said to have cost 100000 lives. This
rebellion also occurred in the region
where the false car started his in
surrection in the last few days.
iemelyan Ivanovitch Pugatcheff was
born in 1926 and died in ITS. The
rebellion he led was known as the
Observation-Disclosures. He was a Cos
sack of the Don and fought against
the Prussians in the Seven Years War
and in the campaign against Turkey
in 1863
On his return from the latter war
he was arrested for helping his broth
er-in-law to escape across the Don.
Fearing punishment ne ran away to
the Cossacks of the Terek. In the
land of his refuge he heard the per-
sistent rumors that Peter III was still
alive. 1t happened that he bore a
striking resemblance to the murdered
car, and it occurred to him to i'm
personate that sovereign. Whether
this Russian soldier dreamed of the
bloody results that followed this I'M
personation is doubtful, but he boldly
announced that he was Peter III and
issued a proclamation in the name of
that sovereign in 1773, declaring that
he would dethrone Catherine II and
again occupy the throne.
The rebellion began in the same
year. He attached to his cause the
Raskolniks, whose religion he en-
braced, and won over several Finnish
and Tatar tribes and thousands of the
peasantry.
After the capture Of many fortresses
on the Ural and the Don, Orenburg
among them, he marched his army
against Moscow. At a crucial time
he was sold by some of his compan-
ions for 100000 rubles and was cap
tured After his trial he was executed
in Moscow. His execution ended the
rebellion, which had been one of the
bloodiest of its kind in history.

In the War department in Washing

Miles in praise Of the deeds of five en-
listed men. Gen. Miles letter is writ
ten simply as becomes a soldier, but
it is a pulse-stirring epistle. It is
probable that nowhere else in anthem
tic history can there be found an ac-
count of a battle won by a force Of
men when the odds against them were
twenty-five to one. In no story which
can be told concerning the people of
the plains is there to be found tale
of greater heroism than that shown
by a little contingent of enlisted men
Of the Sixth United States cavalry
down near the Red river in Texas in
the summer of the year 1874. The
Sixth cavalry has had a fighting his
tory, but this particular story shines
bright in it's pages.
The Comanches, the Cheyennes and
were leaving red trail all along the
borders of western Kansas. General,
then colonel, Nelson A. Miles was or
dered to take the field against the
savages. His expedition fitted out at
Fort Dodge and then struck for the far
frontier The combined bands of In
dams learned that the troops were on
their trail and they fled south to the
Red river of Texas holly pursued by
two troops of the Sixth cavalry, COM
manded by Capts. Biddle and Comp

On the bluffs of the Tule river the
allied braves made a stand. There
were COO warriors all told, and they
were the finest of the mounted plains

Sixth under the leadership of their Of

force that should have been over

precipitous canyons and out on to the

1t became imperatively necessary
that couriers should be sent from the
detachment of the sixth to Camp Sup

ments were needed and it was neces-
sary as we'll to inform the troops at
distance that bands of hostiles had
broken away from the main body and
must be met and checked.
The whole country was swar ning
with Indians and the trip to Camp
Supply was one that was deemed al
most certain death for the couriers
who would attempt to make the ride.
The commanding officer of the forces
in the field asked for volunteers, and
Serg. Zacharias T. Woodall of 'T'

he was ready to go. His example was

Dowager Queen Margherita has been
suffering from unassuageable grief
since the death Of King Humbert, five
years ago. The queen in her youth
was considered the most beautiful
princess in all Europe. She is the
daughter of the late Prince Ferdinan-
do of Savoy, duke of Genoa, and she
was married to Humbert, then the
prince Of Piedmont, on April %, 1868.
During her reign she was idolized by
the people of Italy.
The former queen knows French,
German, English, Spanish, Italian, of
course, and Latin thoroughly. She
knows Greek well and is familiar with
the literature of all ages.
The queen rises early and retires
late. She manages with six hours
sleep and thrives on it. Her work OF
charities, patronage, organization and
society keeps her constantly busy. She
is not at all domestic. She likes driv-
ing and out-of-door life generally, but
has not much opportunity for indul-
gence in these tastes. She likes Ger
many and the Germans and is a warm
friend of William and his wife.

1t is said that stammerers rarely, il

when speaking in whispers A new
method of treatment has therefore
been advocated. which is as follows:
For the first ten days speaking is pro
hibited. This will allow rest to the
voice and constitutes the preliminary
stage of treatment. During the next
ten days speaking is permissible in a
whispering voice. and in the course OF
the next fortnight the ordinary con-
versational tone may be gradually en-
cloyed.
