ark. and also asserts that the builder
Of the first great vessel Of which his
tory has preserved an account was also
the builder of the great pyramid OF
Gizeh. As to the ark. Mr.. Millard ar
firms that 1t would cost S500.O0O to
build such a vessel today and therefore
regards Noah as the first millionaire or
at least that he was in n position to
force vast multitudes Of men to work
for him. As TO the pyramid Of Gizeh.

HUSBANDS ARE IN CLOVER.
More Girls Than Boys Born in Uru- guay and the Men Are
 Tempered.

A South American visitor described Uruguay as a paradise for husbands Men are in considerable minority, for although the great war, which carried off the majority of the masculine popu- lation. occurred several years ago. na- ture has not yet corrected the deficiency says Cassell's Journal.
 Many more girls than boys afe born, with the result that men are everywhere in great request. and when a woman gets a husband she does her utmost to take care of him.
 He leads life of ease and freedom, takes his meals whenever he chooses. and is never asked to trouble himself with domestic affairs. His wife thinks nothing too good for him, and he is pam pered and petted in every way.
 While this is, of course, delightful state of things for the married and marrying" men, Uruguag is a danger ous land for those who. being bachelors, desire to remain so. They have not only to beware of the yidders,'' like MT. Weller senior. but of the unmarried women. Indeed. it may be said tha, to a Uruguay girl every year is Leap Year,

When there was an abundant SUD- ply of the best quality of timber it was the habit of lumbermen to neg lect gil but the best species. says one writer in speaking of the decline of the forest. For instance, in Indiana ard Ohio the white oak trees were cut and the red oaks were left. In the south only few years ago the gum, which is now of considerable commer- cial importance, was left to rot in tho woods. On the Pacific coast the west crh hemlock was not considered worth trans porting from the forest to the mill. In consequence the supply of high class timbers has been seriously depleted, and the character of the for est has been changed by the reproduc- tion of the inferior species which were left in possession. while the lumber mar las had to extend his operations over q large area in order to secure the necessary amount of timber If these inferior species can he cut and marketed at profit. it will be possible in tho future 10 lumber with far less dGtriuent to the forest, and at the sHme time the available supply of tim. bcr will be greatly increased.

MAY LAWS" IN RUSSIA.
Rave Had the Effect of Herding the Jewish People Into the
 Towns.

Maj. ". Evans Gordon, the member of parliament from Stepney. that part Of London containing the ghetto Of the city. recently succeeded in introducing his bill for the regulation of immigra- ton into the United Kingdom. The bill is proposed as government meas ure, under the auspices of the home secretary. The great problem of Lon don is inc Russian Jew. Sentiment in favor of their exclusion is general and extends even to their own country men who have long been residents oi London An example of this was given within the year when the Jew ish bakers went on strike against the employment of newly arrived Jews, who offered to vors for lower wages than were being pail to those already employed.
 It is difficult to exclude any man from a country when no reason Of physical disability. criminal career Of promise Of immediate heIplessness pre- sents itself To obtain an intelligent knowledge 0f the situation Maj.

Prosecution I found to be a rela- tive term. From an EngIish-speakine point of view everyone in Russia is more or less persecuted. owing to the close personal control which is exer- cised by the government over the movement and actions of all its citi- gems. Jewish emigration is due. pri- marily, to what are known as the May jaws of 1882. These laws provided that only those who .couid prove the right of residence prior to that year would be allowed to live in the coun- try. All others were driven into the towns. Some idea of the operations of this law is obtained from the fact that in IS months after 1t was passed the Jewish population of the town of Tschernigov rose from 5.V00 to 20.000 souls. so that four persons had to find a living where previously it was diff. cnlt enough for one to earn bread.
 '1t is obvious that this confinement; to the towns must lead to the over- cTowding. not only of the houses. but of all employment and here again the Russian jaw steps n to make the ioi of the Jew as burdersome as possible. No sort Of employment paid directly or indirectly by the state is open to a Jew He can obtain no work from the municipality of the toSn in which he resides the government endeayorins as far as possible u prevent it.

The most hopeful aspect of the whole business and financial question. says Banker Clews. is the probability of the Russo-Japancse war coming to q speedy close. Russia is evidently m- able to carry the conflict to success. ful issue. her credit being threatened and her troops being needed at home to prevent dissolution of the empire. Ihis crisis permits an honorable re- treat. If such be the outcome, it will largely counteract. temporarily at least. the effect of I,ussia's internal troubles. The stoppage of the cnor- nous waste of life and capital which tEe war involves would be an immedi, atc relief to the international money markets: while the subsequent restora- ton of vast territory and immense pop ulations to the more bencficcnt infiu- cnccS Of commerce will rapidly restore confidence and stimulate industry in all parts of the world.
