What tue Smithsonian lnstitution
 is Doing and Is Going to Do

The operation of the Smithsonian h. stitution is unique among the estap- Nshments of the United States govern ment in that, deriving it's own proper support from the Smitnson fund, prf- vate foundation, 1t has from time 10 time had placed in its charge various branches of government scientific work. These branches. to be sure are all of them outgrowths of researches later adopted and fostered by govern ment aid. The practical importance or several former investigations of the h. st;tution has been realized to such an extent that. like the Bureau of Fish cries the Weather Bureau and perhaps biological bureaus now included in the Department of Agriculture. they have been weaned entirely and conducted as separate branches of the government service.
 As the Smithsonian Institution now operates, there are included under Its administration the National Museum land in connection with 1t the National Gallery of Art) the Bureau of America Ethnology, the system of Internationai Exchanges, the International Catalogue of Scientific Literature. the Astrophy- sicai Observatory. and the National Geological Park.
 From the income of the Smithson fund and from contingent funds, spe- cial researches are conducted in fields not covered by other Government scientific bureaus. whether the fields be the measuring of pressure and tenn perature at high attitudes. the study ing of eclipses, the tracing of geolo sic strata, or determining the principles of flight. And for the increase and diffusion of knowledge among men, the words of the Smithson bequest. many scientific and popular works are issued to libraries and institutions throughout the world.
 Aided partly by Smithson funds and partly by special Government appro- priations, several investigators are at present in the field. MT c. w. Gilmore of the National Museum Is in Alaska undertaking paleontological expiora- tions with a special view to securing specimens of fossil mammals. MT. Gilmore's researches. which follow up- on discoveries made severol years ago by MT. Maddren, are to extend over two seasons and are confined to the Yukon Basin and Buckland River region
 Under a very recent Smithsonian grant MT. Bailey Willis of the Unieed States Geological Survey, is directed to proceed to Europe for thorough

Development of Timber And Minin9 Sections in Texas And other States By Many New Rail-
 road Enterprises.

Baltimore, July 19-(SpeciaD-In this weeks issue the Manufacturers' Record says:
 "Evidence of the South's accumulat- ing wealth is seen in every direction. No one can make a trip through that section with his eyes and ears open without being impressed with the many ways In which its, financial improve ment finds expression In material things. In North Carolina, where the building association idea as means for saving money and cooperation is very popular, the growth of building associations in the last five years years has been remarkable. These associa- tions are strictly local. Five years ago there were in North Carolina in force 17,50O shares in the local build ing and loan associations. This repre- scented a capitalization of $1,75O,0O0 at par which at that time was in progress of being saved. There were then twenty-seven local associations. Now there are in that State over 100 local associations with 116,0OO shares in force, representing capitalization or S11, 500, 900, which Is being paid Tor by the weekly savings of North Carolina people. Thus in five years the gain in the work of the building associations has been multiplied seven times, while the depOSHS III SdNlhSo O~hhS I'll eA'"N State have materially increased. There is a growing tendency throughout the South for the establishment of saving banks as separate institutions, and for the establishment of savings depart ments in conffection with State or national banks. A great many national banks are opening saving de- partments which are proving exceed ingly popular with the people. "Another evidence of this prosperity is everywhere seen in the building or better homes Increasing wealth IS finding expression not only in costly dwellings, but Tn the beautifying of private grounds, as well as in improve ments looking to the beautifying of towns and cities. There is a great de- mand throughout the South for land scane gardeners and engineers. and many from the North, where long ac- cumulated wealth has developed this husiness into widely-extended pro fession, are finding profitable employ ment in the South
 "rbe same tendency toward improve ment is equally marked in the mill vil- iages wheref newly painted houses flower gardens and shade trees are the

order of the day. Many mill owners when they first commenced the im- provement of mill-village life in this way. ten or fifteen years ago, found comparatively little encouraGement among the people themselves. but year after year there has gradually been developed in many of the villages a local pride which is now resulting in great advance in the beautifying of the villages"
 During the first six months Of the present year the Manufacturers Record received reports of either the forma- ton or Incorporation of 1O6 new rail- way enterprises-that is, companies not connected with existing trunk lines-in the different Southern States. Including Missouri. Indian Territory andSOklahowa,s the total was 133. Some of these companies represent projects of several hundred miles in extent and while as yet comparatively little has been done in the way of construction, the incorporators and promoters of these various plans are taking time by the forelock. making surveys, secur- ing rights of way or bonuses, as the case may be, so as to be in readiness to push construction when the financial market shall have witnessed the res toration of its equilibrium which will pcTInlt tuo uHucTtdhlnS UT SuCn WOTk.
 Texas has the greatest number of these new railway projects, her total for the six months being twenty-two. Next comes Oklahoma with sixteen, then North Carolina and West Virginia with eleven each. followed by Georgia and Missouri with ten each. The other States next in order and their number of new railway companies. respective ly, are as follows: Virginia nine Arkansas, seven; Tennessee, seven; Alabama, six; Kentucky, five; Louisi- ana, five: Mississippi, four; Florida. three; Maryland. three; South Carolina, three: Indian Territory, one.
 There are many of these proposed railroads for the purpose of developing timber or mining regions. but a large number of others are designed to af ford passenger and freight facilities over long distances. this being par ticularly the case with transportation plans in Texas, Indian Territory and Oklahoma, where railroads of consider able length are the rule, and not the exception.
