Kidney diseases increase 1877 per

One of the most appalling facts
brought to light by the statistics of

the increase OF kidney and bladder
diseases. In less than one generation
these dreadful ailments have in
creased 1877 per cent in the City OF

TRACING the DOGS Descent.

1t seems to be generally accepted by
naturalists and the world at large that
the domestic dog is in some sense a
collateral descendant of the wolf or
jackal says writer in Harper's
Weekly.
A professor at the Natural History
| Museum in Paris has communicated
results of his study Of various canine
skulls to the academy of sciences. He
appears to have noticed certain per-
culiarities of growth which have hith-
erto escaped biologists. He states that
| the skull of almost every species of
wolf and jackal differs from the skull
Of the shepherd dog to an extent that
makes it impossible that this dog
should belong in the same classifica-
ton. The skull of the Indian wolf, on
the contrary, shows some points Of
resemblance. This, indeed, is the only
savage canine the top of whose head
projects like that of the dog.
There are, moreover. other charac-
teristics which the Indian wolf has in
common with the dog. and which the
ordinary wolf does not share with
them, although his origin and that OF
the dog have long been supposed to
be a common one.
The conclusion of this scientist is
that the Indian wolf is the progenitor
of the shepherd dog and the blood
hound. There were two primitive races
of dogs analogous to these which were
first domesticated in central Asia.
whence they passed to Europe, and
there seems no reason to doubt that
the bloodhound of today is the direct
descendant of the dog spoken of by
the ancients as "the dog of the age Of
bronze"

eerlln,s News of Waterloo.

There has just been published Blu
cher's dispatch which gave Berlin the
first news of the victory OF Waterloo.
It was addressed to the governor,
and read:
81 inform your excellency that in
conjunction with the English army un-
der Field Marshal the Duke Of yelling
ton I yesterday gained the most COM
plete victory over Napoleon Bona
parte that could possibly be won.
The battle was fought in the neigh
borhood OF some isolated buildings on
the road from here to Brussels bear
ing the name La Belle Alliance and
a better name can hardly be given to
this important day. The French army
is in complete dissolution and an ex-
traordinary number of guns have been
captured.
Time does not at this moment per-
NIT me to send further details to your
excellency. I reserve them for fu-
ture occasion and beg you duly to
communicate this joyful news to the
good Berliners. BLUCHER."
The dispatch reached Berlin on
June "a. 1S12.-From London Globe.

.PACINOTTI NO PUSHER
ITALIAN INVENTED A DYNAMO
WITH RING ARMATURE.
But He Let tho Discovery sIumber
and Seven Years Later IL Was De-
veIoped by Gramme, the Hus-
tlIng Belgian.

At a moment when an admiring
world echoes with the achievements of
one Italian electrical inventor, there
passes from the earth in deepest OBJ
security another Italian to whom the
arts and sciences are also under obli-
cation, and the contrast Is dramatic,
the Scientific American remarks. In
cidentally, 1t may be noted that the
country of Volta by some curious proc
ess of heredity or continuance always
holds her own in the industry to which
Volta gave birth, but only the student
knows that alongside the cleaning
name of Marconi may also be set those
of Pacinotti and Ferraris.
AS far back as 1864 the gentle Ital-
ian physician Pacinotti introduced tim
idly to public notice a small electro
magnetic machine, with toothed ring
armature, which, he pointed out with
prophetic instinct, was available both
as motor and as a generator. And
then nothing happened! But when
the celebrated Gramme dynamo with
It's ring armature arrested universal
attention, seven years later, tho unob-
trusive professor dug up his treatise
and his machine and showed beyond a
doubt he was entitled to the credit of
the discovery, although he lacked the
essential driving power to turn 1t into
device useful to mankind.
There perhaps lies the lesson Of his
career. We need physical discoveries
and reverse those who seek the truth
for its own sake. But mankind with
keen instinct saves its warmest ac-
claim for those who also make discov-
cries of some avail in adding to the
length of life, its Joy, its possibilities
and its conveniences.
Had not the hustling Belgian,
Gramme, come along with his famous
dynamo and sanguine French hackers.
Pacinotti would have let his model
slumber forever in museums and cab
inets, just where many things the
world is waiting for linger now. The
fact that Y. Pacinotti SO little realized
what he had done and what his really
great inventive ability meant. is
shown by the curious fact that the
work and the studies of his later years
were devoted to vine culture. If
he did anything significant there the
records of our time fail to show it,
but meanwhile the glorious torrent
OF electrical invention has swept on
SO fast and so far to many people
even this bold recognition of the ami
able doctors genius may seem a bit
superfluous

Killing With Electricity.

The French people, scientists as
well as owners of slaughter houses
and consumers of beef, mutton and
pork, have become interested in expert
ments for. the more humane killing of
animals-especially for food products
NOT only to save the creatures from
unnecessary pain, but to better the con-
dition Of meats which go to the con-
sumer.
DR.. S. Leduc, who has been conduct
ing the experiments at the abattoir In
Nantes, has killed by electricity a
great number of animals-oxen, bulls,
COWS, horses, hogs. sheep, calves and
dogs-using u current of ITO volts,
with an intensity of from 40 to 80
milliamperes. The current was inter-
rupted 100 times per second, passing
each time during one-thousandth of
second. The result was satisfactory,
but no detailed report has been made,
because the experiments are to be
followed up at the abattoir at Rogens-
burg and also In Germany.

Early Aeroplanes.

Not SO very long ago a deliver
among literary antiquities turned up a
notebook of Leonardo da Vinci's In
which appeared sketches of aero
planes. and now comes an amusing
Frenchman with citations to prove
that Dante must have flown. They are
genuine citations. You can find them
for yourself in the seventeenth canto
Of the Inferno. where Dante and Vir-
gil go riding on the back of an i'm
mense beast, which is obviously poetic
license meaning an aeroplane. Says
Virgil to Dante: Thou hast need to
show strength and audacity;" then to
the alleged beast, Describe a wide
circle in descending" Says Dante:
"The beast continued to descend,
slowly, slowly, turning as he went
down. was aware of motion

LOST WITH ALL ON BOARD
Many Ocean Liners Have Disappeared,
Leaving No Survivor to Tell Of
the Disaster.

A writer in Chambers Journal re-
calls the number of vessels which
have from time to time disappeared
mysteriously. leaving not single sur
vivor to tell the story.
In the North Atlantic service alone,
between 1s41 and 1890. no fewer than
"a big steamers were totally blotted
out of human knowledge, together
with their crews and passengers, num-
bering 1,451. The President, with
136 souls on board, was the first Of
these to be lost forever in 1841. The
City Of Glasgow disappeared in 1854
without leaving trace, and she had
4S0 souls on boad. In 1856 the Pa
cific, with living freight of 240. sail
ed from Liverpool in June, and was
never moro heard of. The Tempest.
with 150 souls, mysteriously disappear
ed In 1859. The City of Boston, with
170 persons, vanished in 1870. The
Huronian, an Allan liner, disappeared
in 1902; and the British gunboat, Con-
dor, was lost in the Pacific in 1901. In
1898 a cattle steamer, the Naronic,
with n aboard, was lost.
AS to the possible causes OF the
catastrophes, It is only possible to
surmise. Capsizing, damage from
within, such as explosion, breakdown
of machinery, or fire; or damage from
without, such as collision with an ice
berk or with derelict hulk, have all
been suggested to explain the losses
of vessels. The Captain capsized, and
hundreds of lives were lost, and 1t
is now generally assumed that the
Warathah capsized by reason of top
heaviness. AS to the damage to ma
chinery, there is the case Of the City
of Paris. which had a big smash in
one of her engine rooms in 1890. She
was near the Irish coast, but though
both engine rooms were filed with wa
ter in ten minutes, she was kept afioat
owing to her watertight compartments
for three days till help came to tow
her into Queenstown. In the case of
a fire, everything, probably, would be
consumed to the waters edge and If
this happened far from land, the
chances of rescue would be remote.
Heavy weather and tidal waves with
the older vessels, at any rate, were
probably other reasons for shipwreck.

In MS thirteenth annual address TO
the Negro Business league at Chicago.
as reported in the Tuskegee Student,
Dr. Booker T. Washington said, with
regard to business openings in the
south:
This is an era of specialization
and organization. Our race should
take heed of this and act. To be
more specific, there are places in the
south for 5000 additional dry goods
stores, and there are colored people
enough to support them. In the south
the negro merchant is not dependent
upon the trade of his own race alone,
but throughout the south, while there
is prejudice in other directions, in
business the negro has little prejudice
to contend with along this line. Not
only the colored man trades at the
colored mans dry goods store. but the
best white people are not afraid to
patronize first-class negro store; and
the same thing is true of other busi-
ness enterprises owned and controlled
by colored people.
There are openings in the south
for at least 5000 additional grocery
stores, for $500 drug stores. There
are openings in the south for 1000
shoe stores, 1900 millinery stores;
and there are communities in the
south where 1000 negro banks can be
operated and supported. Further than
this, there are places in the south
where twenty-five self-governing, self
supporting, selfdirecting towns or
cities may be established, where the
colored people can have their own
mayor, their own board of aldermen,
their own selfgovernment from every
point of view. In the last analysis,
local elf-government is the most
precious kind of government"
Trade follows the demand at home
as it does the flag abroad. There is
no doubt or shadow of turning about
that. For every trade opening in white
settlements there are half-dozen ap-
plicants for the available store space,
and when 1t Is once taken it Is hard
to get the owner out of it, as the
longer he remains in it the more valu-
able as business place it should be-
come to him, and, therefore, to others.
This Is true of large as of small avail
able store space for business purposes.
White men understand this principle
thoroughly; negroes have yet to learn
it, having but recently made begin
ming, but the sooner they learn 1t
thoroughly the better for them. White
men are neither ashamed nor afraid
to go into negro communities, pre-
empt the store space, and, beginning
in small way.egather to themselves
the trade. When they have done it
it is hard, very hard, for would-be
belated negro tradesmen to get them
out Of the district and they often
bankrupt themselves in the effort
If the negroes do not take advan-
tage of the trade opportunities in the.
south DR.. Washington points out as
waiting for them white men will
do it. 1t does not matter II the oppor-
tunity is "a small one; take advantage
of it and make the most of it-New
