MEETSPEoPLEoF DISTINCTION
Great Crowds Greet Him on the
streets-His Quarters on Board
Admiral Filled with Flowers.

Naples, aly.-Ex-President Roose-
welt spent several hours in Naples
yesterday, and during that time was
given many evidences of his personal
popularity with the Italian people
and of the admiration which they have
for his distinguished services to his
country.
The steamer Hamburg, on which
Mr.. Roosevelt was a passenger, COM
ing in soon after noon, was greeted
on her way to the anchorage with the
blowing of whistles, the fluttering of
many flags and the playing of bands.
Italian warships in the harbor, steam
ers of various nationalities, private
yachts and craft of all kind, dressed
in bunting and signal flags from stem
to stern, added to the picturesqueness
of the scene which Mr.. Roosevelt him
self characterized as magnificent.
Great crowds, too, waited for his
appearance on the streets, and when
he rode along in an automobile he
was greeted with enthusiasm that as
tonished him. He met various Off
cial delegations at the Hotel Excel
sior, were apartments had been re-
served for him, scores of prominent
Americans and the representatives Of
other countries, and to them all he
expressed his warmest thanks for
the welcome which he had received.
He visited the duke and duchess of
Aosta at Capodimonte, and later dined
in private at the hotel, going on board

white and black carnations from the
German emperor and great cluster
of fragrant blossoms from the en-
press.

BAD CONDITION OF AFFAIRS
Girls Industrial School at Delaware
Said to be Unsanitary-There Is
Not Enough Sleeping Rooms.

Delaware, O.-Almost 700 wards of
the state, from 8 to 81 years of
age, inmates of the Girls Industrial
school, are held here under conditions
that are a disgrace to Ohio and that
would not be tolerated in any munic-
ipality of the union, says the Cleve-
land, o., Press. Crowded like cattle
in antiquated, dilapidated, unsanitary,
barren buildings, the we'll and the
diseased, the young and the old, the
good and the bad, the homeless and
the vicious, are thrown into close con-
tact with one another every day.
Since 1904 the population of the home
has increased more than 100 per cent,
and in the same time only q addi-
tional sleeping rooms have been
added.
Conditions at the Delaware Girls
Industrial school are deplorable," said
Gov. Harmon, when told that two of
the inmates had been brought to a
maternity hospital in Columbus, but
the state is to be blamed, not the
management. The state should es-
tablish a separate institution for in
corrigible girls, instead of herding
them with innocent dependents"

Ivory from Nuts.

Ivory nuts, popularly called vege-
table ivory, are the fruit of species
of palm, and are known in France and
Spain as corozo nuts, and in Column
bia as fagua nuts. The trees require
15 years or more before they can
properly mature nuts for manufacture
ing purposes. Vegetable ivory is used
commercially for the manufacture of
buttons, gaming counters, various elec-
trical appliances, and for various kinds
of inlaid work, for which they are
turned or carved.
The chief consuming countries of
this article are France, England, Ger
many, the United States, Italy, Russia
and Spain. The port of Cartagena
in Columbia alone exported 3,423 tons
Of ivory nuts to Germany in 1907; sos
to France, AL to this country, and So
to England. These shipments all orig
mated in the departments of Bolivar,
Magdalena and Atlantico on the At
lantic coast, and Cauca on the Pacific
coats.

HINDU TEMPLE VERY OLD.
Remains Found In Java Of Great
Works of the Eighth Century.

The Boroboedoer unearthed by Sir
Stamford Raffles when the English
ruled in Java was built by the Hindus
in the eighth century and is by far
the finest example of their work in
the island. Standing on hill in the
middle of the valley, this imposing edi-
flee, covering nearly ten acres, rises
to height of upward of 100 feet above
the summit of the hill
1t consists of series of stone ter
races built on top of each other in
diminishing magnitude, so as to leave
circumscribing galleries, and crowned
by a vast cupola; entrance to the gal
leries is gained by four stairways,
north, south, east and west, which run
from the ground straight up to the big
top terrace, in the middle Of which
stands the crowning cupola, surround
ed by numerous smaller lattice work
cupolas, and from which one may
step aside into any of the intermediate
galleries.
The whole Is built of stone, showing
an immense amount of carving, and
though there is no genuine inside to
the temple, many of the galleries are
covered in, innumerable images Of
Buddha occupy inches or prominent po-
sitions on the walls, and the sides of
the galleries are paved with bas-re-
liefs, indicating the glorification of
this god and other incidents in his his
tory. When one considers that there
are several miles of bas-reliefs alone,
the works expended on the pyramids
of Egypt pales into insignificance be-
fore this stupendous undertaking.
