Army Wanting in Marching Ability

that the field army is wholly unpre-
pared for field service He says the
new regulations are almost entirely
theoretical or dependent upon the ex-
perience of European armies. Our
transportation is the same as at the
beginning of the civil war, for our
army has so far failed to make use
of automobiles, traction engines and
other modern appliances in the field
The weaknesses could be quickly de-
veloped If the present annual maneu-
vers could be replaced at least once
by the march Of a complete army
corps. Very few of our officers have
ever marched with more than a regi-
ment.
To remedy these conditions, Mai
Gen. Wood, chief of staff, has issued
orders which will change materially
the training of the army The inspec-
tors general will be required to sub
NIT the troops to an annual inspection
in the field, in addition to the present
inspection, which is described in some
quarters as being little less than an
inquiry into the accounts and garri-
son work of the troops. The new in
spection will be designed to show the
efficiency of the troops in the theoret-
ical work taught army officers in The
various schools and provided for in
the various drill regulations.

Gifts of Potentates Vex Uncle Sam

| that degree, at least, weaken his al
legiance to this country.
The most noted exception to this
rule by congress was the authorize
ton of acceptance by former Presi-
dent Roosevelt of the Nobel peace
prize, amounting to about $4,000.
Colonel Roosevelt turned this money
over to the department of commerce
and labor to form the basis of a
fund for expenses attending arbitra-
ton and the peaceful settlement Of
disputes between capital and labor.
Before granting the authorization in
this instance, congress had full knowl-
edge of what was to be done with
the money. The prize was awarded
to Colonel Roosevelt for his efforts
in terminating the war between Rus
STA and Japan.
The action of the house committee
arouses new interest in the notable
collection of valuable and curious
gifts presented by foreigners to Of
fetal Americans which this govern
ment has not authorized acceptance
of by Americans and which are now
in safekeeping in the national mu-
scum and in the state. war and navy
departments.

X1ASHINGTON.-The United States
w government in fifty years has ac-
cumulated $13,000,000 from unre-
deemed money. A long-standing cues
ton, namely: How much does a gov
eminent make through the failure OF
its citizens to present its paper for
redemption? is answered fairly ac-
curately for our country in these fig
ures. Expert mathematicians in the
United States have figured on the
problem, and the results they have
obtained by different methods are so
nearly identical as to lead the layman
to feel confident that they have hit
somewhere near the mark.

First Report on Infantile Paralysis

as a cause of death has been made
heretofore, but the increasing import
ance of the disease and it's wide prev
alence throughout the country in the
form of local epidemics render a
statement of the mortality important.
The 500 deaths compiled for the
registration area for 1909 were widely
distributed, and indicate endemic or
epidemic prevalence in many parts of
the country 1t should be remem-
bered, the bulletin points out. that
the census data relate only to regis
tration sources, and that for the non
registration states the deaths are
only those returned from the regis
tration cities contained therein.
Pellagra is a new disease in the
mortality statistics, the bulletin
states. Only % deaths were returned
from this cause for 1908, and no
deaths for any previous year except
one for 1904. Such deaths undoubt-
eddy occurred, but were not recog
niged and were consequently returned
as due to other causes or as of I'M
known cause.

although this is the most important
part of the problem. The boys and
girls born and reared in the country
have better appreciation of its prob
lens and its possibilities than a city
bred man or woman could ever have.
Yet there are many country boys born
with a taste for machinery that moth
ing but a factory can ever satisfy.
There are many born with the ability
to handle men that might make them
the head of a great mercantile estab-
lishment. The city needs men of this
kind, and the country can well afford
to spare them, for it is for the good
of the nation that they should go.
At the same time there are many
city born boys and girls to whom the
air of the crowded streets seems sti-
fling. They love the country, and they
belong there. There are others who
through no fault Of their own have
never been able to get higher than the

competition for places has left them

WoMAN's CLAIM ON GLACIER
She Expects to Dig Some Precious
Ore from Her Moving Mining
Property.

Mrs. Mary E. Hart, formerly of
Los Angeles, who has just returned
to Seattle after visiting Alaska, has
the distinction of being the first per-
son to stake out mining claim on
a glacier while it was still in acton.
Sidney Noise, with the local ,archi-
tect firm of Hunt & Gray, was ON
board the Seattle. which has just re-
turned from a trip to the Klondike.
and he states that for the first time
in nine years passengers were able
to make a landing at Muir Glacier,
near Skagway.
The glacier is considered Afar from
safe, but Mrs. Hart, with natural
love of adventure, stepped triun-
phantly ashore and was followed by
others eager for the experience of
landing upon the forbidden ice field.
1t was found that the moraine, a
deposit freighted with precious ore,
which is always carried with the ire
in this section, had already beco:1
quite solid, and Mrs. Hart forthwith
staked out a claim.
Mrs. Hart has pascal a number sf
years in Alaska and is ccnversarW

Big Harvest From Unredeemed Money

money that is either DESTROYED or ia
In such hands that it will never reach
the treasury for redemption in gold.
Well-known authorities who have
worked independently on the subject
found, when they compared notes,
that they had reached substantially
the same resultant of all paper
money issued the government escaped
payment on from one-tenth of I per
cent to about one-half of l per cent.
This. of course, means that the gov
eminent makes on the paper money
1t issues a commission varying be-
tween the percentages set forth. The
most definite result shows a gain of
approximately one-eighth of / per
cent, total gain to the government
amounting to $13,241,O since the
beginning of our paper money-about
half century ago.
All sorts of causes contribute to
increase the amount of paper money
that will never be presented for re-
demption. Fire is perhaps the most
important cause. though improved
safes and the more general use of
safes for holding the cash supply are
annually reducing the loss from this
cause. Then there is a sort of inertia
that money seems to have which
keeps it. out in the country once it
is started in circulation, even though
it be of an issue supposed to mature
at given time. Shipwrecks, too, are
responsible for some of the loss.
Lastly, there are the collectors, and
it is probable that every fairly good
collection of United States paper
money accounts for at least one piece
of every denomination that has failed
to come back to the treasury.

r HE United States army has lately
undergone a series of stern and
severe criticisms. Authorities have
studied the existing conditions from
every point of view, and in their re-
ports have delivered their opinions

points out the case of a whole bat

Philippines without a single field Of

manded by a second lieutenant of

TEACHING BY MOVING PICTURES
Surgical Operations and Nervous
Diseases Before the Camera.

Surgical Operations and Nervous
Diseases Before the Camera.
One of the new uses to which NOV
ing pictures are put is teaching, and
at least one house dealing in films
publishes list of some hundreds in
tended for class room use.
Most peculiar of all are the pic
lures of operations intended for dis
play IN hospitals and medical col
leges. In fact it 10 explicitly stated
that medical and surgical films are
restricted to exhibition before such
institutions and cannot be leased ex
cept under strict guarantees that
their use will be so limited.
Perhaps, however, the general pub
lie would not care to sit through
vaudeville show and at the end as
the house was darkened read in let
tiers of light upon the screen: Re
moval of myxomatous tumor of the
thigh" or "Extirpation of a bilateral
exophthalmic goitre."
The catalogue, which describes
these films and which promises many
more than are contained in the issue
for this year, describes them in great
detail. On eseries consists of a half
dozen operations all of the same gen.
eral nature, the 'Extirpation of en-
capsuled tumors," and in all more
than one-fifth of a mile of film is
needed.
Surgery is not alone in being thus
illustrated. Medicine has its pictures,
bore particularly to illustrate the dis
eases in which, there is a character
istic walk. Various forms of par
alysis where the diagnosis is depen-
dent on the gait are shown in detail.
The pictures of such a disease as
paralysis agitans show the character
istic rigidity of the body when the
sufferer is walking and of the face
muscles when talking.
An unusual series illustrates the
effect of beri-beri on the natives OF
Borneo.
Moving pictures also have their use
in solving problems Of agriculture
and public health. The dealers in
fines announce that by process
which they describe as micro-kinema-
Biography they can show the typhoid
bacilli magnitied $50 diameters in all
stages of growth and movement. Sim
ilarly the circulation of blood in the
web of a frogs foot is shown, and
the movement of the chlorophyl or
green coloring bodies in the leaf.
The possibility of teaching geo.
graphy in this way is easily under
stood, and the motion picture camera
has invaded most parts of the civil
lied world. Even the religious field
is not neglected and the attention of
Sunday schools and missionary So
cieties is called to such subjects as
open air Bible classes in India
conducted by native evangelists, or
Outcasts of India: Procession of
men, women and children who have
embraced the Christian religion
Zoology offers list of subjects that
ought to charm any child into for
getting that he is learning. The sub
jects range from Polar bear fishing to
camels crossing the desert. Very
many of these pictures have been
made in the famous wild animal park
of Carl Hagenbeck near Hamburg.
