Tons of SiIkworms

From the London Morning Post.
 Within the last 90 years serculture as farm industry has made remarkable progress in Hungary. Whereas 5525 pounds only of silk worms were produced in 1872 the product in 1910 amounted to .625,51S pounds lover 1l72 tons), and the number of families engaged in the indus try rose from 1o50 to upward of 90,0o0. The breeding of the silk worms in taught throughout the country by means of leaf, let's and by lectures illustrated by lantern slides. In eommunes where the industry is likely to prove a success the school mistress are specially trained to give in- instruction in all that relates to It.
 Particular importance is attached by the government to the cultivation of the mul- berry, and official inspectors are appoint ed to supervise the management of null berry plantations. At the central inspec- ton station, which is fitted with 267 micro- scopes. an avefage of from seven to eight million samples of silk are examined ev- cry year. By the systematic efforts of the government the peasants and small holders have been provided with a new and reliable source of income, and the whole history of the movement shows how minor rural industries may be fos- tered and established by the state.

GENERAL SHAKEUP IN ENGLISH NAVY Atlantic Fleet Becomes Third Squadron of First
 Fleet

London, April -(Special)-Changes of an important and far reaching char aeter in the navy have been outlined by MT Churchill in a speech in the house of commons.
 The organization for home defense is to be reeast and strengthened, and in future will be divided into first, second and third fleets, the whole three fleets comprising eight battle squadrons of eight battleships. each with attend ant cruisers and accessories.
 The battleships of the first and sec ond divisions of the home fleet become the first and second battle squadrons of the first fleet
 The Atlantic fleet becomes the third squadron of the first fleet, and will be based on home ports instead of on Gib- raltar as hitherto. The fourth squad ron of the first fleet will be made up of ships now in the Mediterranean, which Will step into the place of the Atlantic fleet, and be based on Gibraltar instead of Malta
 With the idea. of getting a portion of the third fleet ready for service with in few hours notice, it is intended to develop force of reserv ves-the 'Imme- diate Fleet Reserve"---of about 5000 men.
 It is also intended to collect a con- siderable number of the younger war rant officers by yearly installments for promotion to the rank of commissioned warrant sub-lieutenante
 It is proposed to maintain continuous commission of the ships, and an inquiry Is now benig conducted into the gunnery of the fleet, and the methods. of testing and training officers in this suprems service. Inquiries were also proceeding into the whole system of the entrance and education of cadets and midshipmen

Monograph Making in Japan
 

From Consul General Thomas Sammons.
 Yokohama.
 The manufacture of photographs in Japan by Americans continues to prove successful, and in some branches native Japanese laborers produce approximately similar results at about one-fourth .he wages paid in the United States The di- rectors of the Nipponopnone company d4td) in their semi-annual report state that as the result of an increase in busI- ness of 50 per cent over the first six months of the year 1911, they are able to pay dividend of 10 per cent, placing the stock on a 20 per cent per annum basis. However, this pioneer photograph enter prise in the far east was carried on for two years previous to the organization of the present company at loss of over S25,o00 in building up the business to d paying basis.

made a year ago and repeated four or five months ago, that difficulties about
 inducing men and women to give are greater than they have been for years. They assert that as much effort has now to be expended to raise $5o0o0 as formerly brought in three or four times that amount. Tn other words, the expense of money raising for benevolence has ad- Vaneed along with the cost of living. There are men, the finaneiers of well known Christian enterprises, who induce others to give sl00OO) to S50o.000 a year There are many more who succeed in get ting in $20o00 to $50,000 q year. There has come to be profession of such men there are no. women in 1t as yet. But nearly all of them are away behind their records in amounts secured, and the few that are not confess to exceptional luck or say they have worked harder than ever in their lives, and expended far larger proportions of receipts upon the effort.
 Asked their explanation of this condi- ton of affairs, these men profess to be unable to give any That appeals have increased in number they admit, but say there has always been steady annual in- crease in societies appealing for money That it may be automobiles, they say they have never known a time when there was not some fad calling for large out lays. That times are hard some declare, but others think they are not capable judges on that point Several such bene- fieient experts. when seen a day or two ago, declare there Is no reason for it. They say there are flush times and dull ones, when people are ready to give and when they are not Why there should be they confess inability to tell. At the moment none are found who think they see any improvement ahead.
 Talk is renewed in the large eastern cities, where 90 per cent of the regular benevolence is garnered, about the need for a financial institution, literally capi- talized and managed by financiers of standing, that shall act as custodian of bequests. A man or woman leaves a sum of money to a charity. There Is now no agent of the giver who sees that condi- tons of the gift are compiled with. In many cases it is declared conditions are not compiled with. And in the event of changes so that a charity ends its use- fulness, possibly it's need, there is now no agent possessing authority to act. Courts age 10th to do so, almost never do so indeed, and more and more money here as in England is being tied up. The prop osition is to create a trust that will have power if the maker of a will 20 ,'lect, after 30 years to act in some uegree in place of the donor and by and with the consent of a civil court, make wise dls- position of bequeathed funds The need of such agency in American benevol 'nce is said to be annually more apparent.

New Rockefeller Pastor

Baptists in the Fifth Avenue church. New York, including John D. Rockefeller. and John D. Rockefeller, Jr., were most emphatic, when selecting q successor to the Rev. pr. Charles F. Aked. now of the First Congregational church, San F Francisco, in their demand for q pastor of mild temperament, quiet manners in the conduct of church affairs, and ability to do team work work with other people That is, tine expressions made ct the meeting which called the new pastor, the Rev. Dr. Cornelius Woelfkin of Roches- ter, were in favor of q minister in all things as far the opposite of their late pastor as could be imagined.
 The new pastor, who leaves the chair of hoinileties in Rochester Seminary is theologian father than a puIpiteer, and much of his farse rests upon his books. It is considered likely that he sacrifices tbe presidency of Rochester Seminary in ac- cepting New York pastorate. The Rockefeller chuch in New York belongs to the liberal element in Baptist thinking, both in doctrine and in polity. There has been talk of it's sale and removal up- town. That question is. for the present, in allowance with the likelihood. if one may Judge by sentiment entertained by of ficials, of new edifice. very handsome, but not larger than the present. on the forty-sixth street site where the old church now stands

Slave Driving in South America

fTo1n the world Work.
 Mir. Alexander F. Rogers who lately made an engineering trip through South America, tells of the barbarities commit ted by rubber adventurers to get chean labor. They entice peons to come from the interior of Bolivia under the promise of high wages, As soon as the unsuspect- ing natives arrive; they are arrested upon complaint of an agent of these men, who charges that the peons owe him several hundred dollars. They are taken before the judge, who is also an accomplice and who immediately finds the peons guilty and sentences them to work out the debt on the boats that carry gold and rubber down the rapids. The conspirators own the boats, of course. They force the victims to work until they drop from exhaustion or die of fever.
 If they will not work, the poor crea- lures are taken to the jail and stretcnsd out on the ground while burly ruffian gives them from 2o0 to 800 lashes with a deadly leather whip. I actually saw one boats crew of Bolivians work for two long days in the blazing sun without being given thing to eat except a little cold salted beef, while they padded Among the peons a smile is rare.
