WHAT is READ IN GERMANY.
How the Literature Differs from that
of America.

How the Literature Differs from that
of America.
The Germans are essentially a read
than, any other In the world, says the
Review Of Reviews. The periodical
literature, however, extensive and
high-class as it is, is very different
from that of England or the United
States, and even from that of other
continental European countries. In
the first place, it is a fact that the
farther south and east one goes in Eu-
rope, the less influential does he find
public opinion and the more servile
the press.
The French press has less freedom
than that of England, and the German
less than that of France. German pc
riodicals differ from those of the Unit
ed States and England in another re-
spect-they are more infinitely differ
entiated. The Germans have month
lies, weeklies and dailies, and these
are usually devoted to some, particu-
lar branch of literature, art, education
or industry. and there Is no publica-
ton combining fact and fiction, illus
tration, poetry history and humor, in
all Germany. such as we find so many
examples of in this country and in En-
gland.
If the English and American press
is commercial, and the French artistic,
the German may be said to be techni-
cal. There is an immense number Of
periodicals devoted to technical indus
tries and handicrafts. The literary
style of German periodicals is not so
polished as that of the French, nor are
these periodicals so attractive mechan-
ically as a general thing. but they are
more honest and reliable than the
French; and, instead of being concen-
trated in the capital or in any other
one large city, they are published at
widely scattered points.

OLDEST OF ALL TIN MINES
Deposits of Cornwall and Method OF
Reducing the Ore Described.

Reducing the Ore Described.
An interesting description of the tin
mines of Cornwall is given by l. G.
Fuller, a mining engineer who is thor
oughly familiar with the deposits and
u now In this country. These mines
are among the oldest in the world. The
phoenicians as early as 500 b. g. had
made their way to the southwest part
Of Britain and discovered tin mines
there. Although the mines have been
worked almost continuously since that
time there is no immediate sign of
their giving out
Tin Is the rarest of the so-called
common metals" declared Mr. Fuller.
1.-THE annual output of the world at
present is $4,000 tons, of which 5000
comes from Cornwall. Prior to 1875
the number of tons raised at Cornwall
was about twice as large and formed
about one-fourth Of the worlds output.
nut since that year there has been an
enormous expansion in the production
as we'll as in the consumption Of tin.
Tin Is now found on almost every con-
Malay peninsula, in a few Of the Pa
cific islands and in South America.
More than five-sixths Of the out
put of tin is derived from secondary
alluvial deposits. but all from Corn
wall is from vein mining. The vein
stuff Is broken either by hand or in
rock breakers and stamped to fine
powder In stamp mills. These mills
are practically large mechanically
worked pestles and mortars, the stamp
proper weighing from 800 to 1000
pounds.
After the mineral has been crushed
small enough to pass through q sieve
with perforations one-twentieth of an
inch in diameter it is carried from the
stamp in suspension in water by means
of a series of troughs In which the
heavier mineral is collected.
This mixture then passes through
q series Of washes which reduces Its
component parts to tinstone and ar
senical pyrites. Refined thus far, it Is
submitted to a calcining process and
rewashed, until finally black tin con
tanning from go to GO per cent OF
metal is left. The dressed ore Is Their
smelted.
THE mines are usually very ho
owing to the lack of adequate ventila
ton, and some Of them are over 4O(
fathoms deep and extend one or two
, miles under the sea. The chief source
Of danger is the sea water, which
sometimes completely submerges thu
mines, often drowning the workers.
THE miners Of Cornwall whe1
working on wages make about IS shil
: lings a week, but the majority worl
on the contract system, or, as yol
would say, by piece work, and o.
course their compensation varies. The.
live very comfortably and seem con
,, tented, being as a whole more conser
vative than the better classes. The.
do not accept Joseph Chamberlain
fiscal policy as readily as the bette
educated people, who are almost uni
versaly In favor of it For some rea
son or other this seems to be rever
sal of the ordinary status of society
Those most eager to grasp at innova
lions are usually the laboring class
es."

UPPER MARLBORO, Nd, April 11.-Dr.
Joseph c. Ohlendorf, proprietor of the
Brent Mar Sanitarium, at Brentwood, and
who had an office in Washington, will be
placed on trial in the circuit court here to-
morrow for the alleged killing of Mss

formed a criminal operation upon the young

trial promises to be an interesting legal
battle. On the side of the prosecution
there will be States Attorney Magruder
and Attorneys Joseph G. Rodgers and
Joseph Roberts. Attorneys Duckett and
Wells of Hyattsville and Stanley of Laurel
will represent the defendant.
The case is of peculiar. interest to the
people of Washington, because all those
who took part in the affair Owed there.
Madge Hale, who was from Marietta, Ohio,
was employed in the government printing
office. In that office she met and1assoc.ated
with Robert Hale. The latter WAS not re-
lated to her, but was introduced to her
friends as cousin Miss Hale died four

constitutionality rests on the ground that

statute named.
THE Importance of this decision is more
clearly understood when we take into con-
sderation the cases now pending in the
southern courts. The highest court of the
land having declared that the laws against
holding persons In condition of peonage
or involuntary servitude are constitutional
and valid and operate directly upon indt-
viduals il IS not difficult TO perceive that
the greatest obstacle heretofore in the way
of convictions is now removed.
