In Cape Colony, South Africa, there
are about 100000 tame ostriehes, and it
is estimated that the number in all other
countries does not exceed 10000. The
extraordinary price OF 5000 has been
paid for a single Cape Colony bird.
Feathers are sold ut auction. At the
last sale prices ranged from SITS 10 $500

DC Farce Of Education in MexicO.

f. Alexander Powell, writing in the
October American Magazine about Dia7
and Mexico, says:--
Much has been written OF the in.
crease Of education In Mexico under the
Diaz regime. As a matter Of fact, the
educational standard could not be much
lower. The flatterers and defenders OF
Diaz pirate increasingly OF the schools
he has established, but I, for one, failed
TO find them. They are mostly on paper
In the Mexican rural districts there are
practically no such things as schools
while in the more remote portions OF
the country towns Of many hundred
inhabitants have no schools at ALL The
schools in the rural districts Of the state
OF Mexico, for example, have been closed
for three years or more, the governor
having withheld the money on the
ground that he needed it for other pur-
poses The fact that there is no ade-
quate public school system in Mexico is
best attested by the most recent cen
sus, which shows that but 10 per cent.
Of the population are able to rcad on
write Compare this with Japan, an
over populated country. where the people
are very poor and where the opportuni-
ties for education seemingly onght not
to be so good. NiHety-eight per cent of
Japanese men and % per cent. OF Japan.

in Cuba a school to every 1924 inhab-
itants; in Chile a school to every 300
inhabitants, but in the enlightened Next
co of Porfrio Diaz there is a school to
every 1861 inhabitants. This disposes
pretty eifectually of the myth that edu.
cation under Diaz has progressed by
leaps and bounds. Figures speak louder

Henry Robert Anthony of Hoboken
Thursday in a cell at the Passaic police
station after admitting he had commit
ted wholesale burglaries here.
Eve been at the game more than a
year, worked it night and day. and

that couldn't hold a job. The news

Since last November Anthony has
committed Is burglaries mere, all in the

there was an answer to the ring, he
always made some plausible excuse for
ringing His downfall came after break

Mueller went to bed early and was
not aroused when Anthony pushed the
bell button, for the bell was out OF or

Muller was awake but did not move
after Anthony threatened to shoot him.
Mueller got a good lool. at him, and

Calls the Wool Schedule An Intricate

"Thc Mysteries and Cruelties of tne

Of which she says;
! "But why tax wool We tax it to
protect it from foreign competition.
/ Tile argument Of the wool growers
and manufacturers who persuaded Com

run, the people viii be rewarded for the

this protective duty
Now, a tax laid on the whole people
