AMERICA MOTHER OF ASIA.
Singular Theory Advanced by Cana
dian Student Of Racial
History.

There are few, if any, in the world who
know the American Indian better han
L. o. Armstrong. the chief of the Cana
dian Pacific railway colonization de-
partment. Or. Armstrong; work takes
him into the out-of-the-way places OF
the dominion, and he has found many
opportunities to add spice and variety
to an exceptionally busy life by studies
of the primitive tribes.
Mr.. Armstrong strongly holds to the
theory that the Asiatic people original
ly migrated-that they were, in fact, de-
%scendants of the tribes now known as
American Indians. He has sometimes
illustrated this claim by dressing Japan
csc in Indian costumes and Indians in
Japanese costumes and then challeng-
ing people to distinguish between the
two.
He points to the recent announce
men that M. X. Jesup, president OF the
American Museum of Natural History,
is about to publish the results of elabor-
ate Investigations into the question as
to whether America peopled the world.
The Investigations conducted for seven
years by prominent ethnologists Of
America and Russia are said to show
~conclusively that the Asiatic peoples
came originally from this continent,
and that the primitive culture of Ameri-
ca was transplanted into Asia and then
to Europe to become the civilization of
great historic peoples.
Il have a great many curious evil
dences of this in the notes that | have
collected from time to time said Mr..
Armstrong. "The theory first occurred
to me through the striking physical re-
semblance between the Ojibway Indians
and the Japanese, and also by the fact
that the Ojibways have the same totem
as the Japanese. which is a crane stand
ing on a turtle. There are many other
little proofs. For instance, in neither
the Otibway nor the Japanese language
are there any swear words The social
position of the woman In both nations is
the anne She has little voice in the
management of domestic matters, but is
a worker"

BOOM.
Real Estate Spectators Find This End of
tho island Profitable at Present.

The southern end of Staten Island,
and Tottenville in particular, now
offers great Inducements to real es-
tate spectators for erecting houses
to be either rented or sold. Houses
to rent are now at a premium, and
strangers are in reality being turned
away from the place on account of
there being no suitable homes for
sale or to rent. The real estate
boom is unprecedented in that sec
ton, and although numerous houses
have been erected during the year
the demand now is greater than ever.
Half of the members of the new paid
fire department have been unable to
obtain residences for their families.
and have been compelled to leave
them for the present in the city. The
two shifts of men in the two compan-
les of the town number only twenty
four. What this scarcity a mean
to real estate men can be readily
seen, when, on the first of the year,
a new marine industry on the Totem
vile shore of the soud is finished and
three hundred more men with thei
families will be forced to live in some
town remote from their work. This
is not all. Other factories, we are
told, are thinking f%avorably of erect
ing their works there. Among the
people interested might be mentioned
Lewis Nixon, who has already pur-
chased a very desirable tract of land
for a marine machine shop of consid-
cradle size.

THE SLED.

During the slight fall of snow, re-
Gently, a number of young girls were
taking advantage of it by riding on
an immense bob sled in Stevens ave-
nue., when they were held up by two
men, Polanders, on the corner of
Henry street. The men wanted the
sled and were determined to have it,.
All of the girls but one ran away.
The young girl remained there alone,
determined that they should not have
the sled, and fortunately some of
those who ran away had sense
enough to go to the girls father,
August Behne, who keeps a store on
the venue Mr.. Behne hurried to
the place and drove the men away.
They appeared to be strangers in
town. One of them was an elderly
man and the other one was about
twenty-five years old.

a A Canadian farmer has rugged up a
novel device to keep his COWS out OF the
corn. A framework of light poles is
strapped over the cows nose, muzzle
fashion, and studded with large nails.
When the COW tries to get through the
fence the nails catch against the Darbs
and effectually keep her out Of the grain.
The device has been widely copied by the
farmers in that section of Canada where
the fences are at best but poor, and
travellers a see scores of cattle carry
ing these novel headgears. often with
