Alexander Graham Bell, who one
morning when he wasn't very busy
invented the telephone, which has
saved his fellow mortals thousands OF
steps and has enabled them to dodge
creditors who called up to say they
were coming, now asserts that 1t Is
only a matter of very short time
until we shall be able to airship to
Europe in 20 hours. That has been
the dream of man ever since he saw
the first balloon ascension, but up to
the present time no one has actually
shown the world how, unless 1t is
the Wright brothers, and thus far
their invention is protected by a pat.
emit or a high board fence, which Is
just as annoying. OF course, If some
one will just establish the principle
and turn the inventors Of the world
loose on 1t, the machine will be here
soon, ready to back up to your door
and take you to Europe, Africa, Japan
and all intermediate points, but as yet
you must be content to go over on a
liner, unless you get chance to work
your way on cattle boat.

Through an appeal for funds to COM
plete the restoration and repair Of the
Church of st. Michael and All Angels.
in the parish Of Dartmoor, England,
an almost forgotten bit Of history has
been called to light. The church.
standing on the rugged heights of that
wild country which Blackmore made
20 familiar through "Lora Doone." is
the most elevated house Of worship in
eli England, as the village In which 1t
stands is the highest inhabited village
in England, and the parish. which
contains 10000 acres of moor and
heath and stream is the largest In
England. But 1t is in its origin that
the church is most interesting, says
Youths Companion. Built In the early
years of the nineteenth century, the
stones of which it is made were quar-
ried and put, in place by the labor OF
French and American prisoners of war
held there in exile while Europe shook
with the thunders of the Napoleonic
wars. The graves of many Of these
exiles still cluster round the old
church.

showing that for the first three years
the growth rate Of both males and re-
males is practically identical, and
that after that period the growth OF
the males is slower than that of fe-

Tine rioting in Roumapia. with which
the civil war began last month, gre"
out of tic struggle of the peasantry
for control of the land, struggle sim
liar to that nov in progress in Russia
and ireland. Until 1854 the peasants
of Roumania we're serfs. The land
was owned by the church. the monas'
teries and the noblemen. The peas
ants cultivated it, and paid utne
of the product to the proprietors-
They also had grazing and fuel rights
in the pastures and forests OF the
proprietors. When, in 1864, the law
was passed for the emancipation Oh
the serfs by the distribution OF the
land among them, the fuel and grazing
rights were extinguished, and the peas
ants. although each household re-
ceived title to from seven to fifteer
acres on easy terms OF payment, nae
to continue to work for the old pro-
prietors to get money to pay for their
fuel They were soon at the mercy
of money-lenders, who exacted usuri-
GUS rates of interest. Many attempts
to improve their condition have been
made, either by increasing the amount
of land which they could own, or by
the establishment of an agricultural
bank to deliver them from the private
money lenders, but these attempts
have not been wholly successful. says
Youths COMPANION. Large tracts Oh
land have been leased by syndicates
and sublet to tenant farmers at high
rates. and the taxes on the peasant
owners have been heavy. AS re-
suit, great suffering has been caused
among the sons and daughters OF those
who were surfs only generation ago.
The ignorance and improvidence oil
the peasants, combined with the op
pressions OF the money-lenders, have
led to conditions which the peasants
think can be relieved only by resort
to violence. They have been wrought
upon by designing politicians with dis
strous results. The government has
snnounced its purpose to remit some
q, the heaviest tax and to reform the
lard Vstem.
