Limited, and from Syracuse to New
York in an hour and half. His plan
Is to have four wheels on the car,
placed, one ahead of the other, running
on a third rail between the two rails
now used. The cars are to be pointed
at the ends, to reduce the resistance
of the air and to lessen the danger of
a collision. The motor cycle train is
to be kept upright by the wheels or
rollers running on the two outside
tracks. When 1t is in motion, accord
ing to Mr.. Vandegrift, 1t will maintain
it's own equilibrium, as does the BIZ
cicyle on the gyroscope principle, and
the faster it travels the safer it will
be.
There are at present 230 vacancies
in the corps of midshipmen at Annapo-
lis, but 1T not to be concluded that
they are all the results Of fist fights.

THE YELLOW PERIL,

Years and years ago "Monteith's Sec
ond Geography conveyed the informa-
ton to inquiring young minds that the
Chinese empire was bounded by a
big wall and held about 400,000,00O
population. Since then, so careless
are the geographers of race suicide,
China has staid close to the 400 MILL
ion mark Now Minister Rockhill
urges that the official estimate Of
377 millions is considerably exagger-
ated. In an article in the last
Smithsonian report Mr.. Rockhill puts
the figures still lower. The population
Of China at present, he thinks, does
not exceed 275,O00,0O0 and is probably
much less The northern provinces
are not overpopulated, but could sup
port a much larger number of persons.
The worship of ancestors tends to
prevent race suicide" 1t is every
Chinamans desir eto have posterity,
in order to keep up the ancestral wor-
to offend the whole line of ones an
cestors by putting an end to the sac
rifices due them. The prevailing re-
ligion, accordingly, operates to multi
ply population, but floods, drouths,
famines, pestilences, unsanitary con-
ditions and rebellions ruthlessly sup
pressed prevent much increase.
The famine Of 1s77-7s is supposed to
have caused 100000 deaths. The flood
of 1888 killed 100000 by drowning or
starvation. It is estimated by DR..
MACEDONIAN that in the TAPPING rebel
lion nine provinces were desolated,
and sooooooo persons were put to
death. Close scrutiny of all the avail>
able data leads Mr.. Rockhill to con-
clude that the population of China at
present cannot greatly exceed that of
1912.

I'M RE MIR. PERKINs.
rOdebolt Chronicle


The word has been passed around.
A few days after Uncle George made
his sensational flop on the railroad
question the Iowa City Republican. a
recognized organ of the Blythe faction,
denounced him for DESERVING
his friends and accused him of jump
ing into the bandwagon in order to Sc
cure the support of the progressive
element for governor The Republican
denounces Uncle George as a gutter
and dodger whose political views
were governed solely by his ambition.
No more bitter or caustic attack was
ever made on Uncle George. But few
days later the Iowa City paper saw a
great light Like Uncle George. 1T
executed a somersault; and. now it is
advocating the nomination Of the
Sioux City man and accuses those who
question his sincerity OF insulting him.
Mr. Blythe was a little late in COM
municating with the Republican, but
he has repaired his negligence.
