THE BLACK HAND INDUSTRY.

It is said that Black Hand blackmailers gather daily aver age of SLIGO in New York City. A detective who says that only one in ten prospective victims has the nerve to wait until he is re- minded with a bomb explosion that he has forgotten to pay his assessment, the nine providing for the safety of themselves and families on a basis of about S2OO each.
 Thus far in 1913 nearly 60 bombs have been set off on the New York spaghetti trail, and about $50 Cicilians, Tuscans, Neapolitans, etc., who have not been blown up have paid heavy tribute to their countrymen who are too strong to work and whose chief accomplishment is suffi- cient knowledge of explosives to enable them to fill a gaspipe with giant powder and have it go off at the psychological moment. The latter have found that nothing will open the pockets of the small business men in the block like ttfeI internal machine which knocks down stairway and throws a few dozen families out of bed in the gray of the morn- ing, when they are sleeping the soundest. If it kills man OF two it all goes in with the days work and the the Black Handler a hundred or so more on the neXt job.
 It's a playful pastime, and ev- cry day or two supplies a remind CT to the New York police that they are unable to stop it.

WHAT IS A M0NGoL?

The United States Supreme Court is likely to have presented 1o it for determination a. question of ethnology which might we'll puzzle a less erudite body. If the Japanese government persists in its attitude denying that persons of that nationality are of "Mon- golian origin and therefore eX- cluded from qualification as citi- zens or residents of the United States. it must be the court and not the congress that decides.
 The contention on the Japan- csc side, it is understood, is that their people are of .Aryan OF Ma layan lineage, and that they should be classified as white. An acute interest in this question is provoked by the controversy over projected legislation in California regarding the ownership of land in that state by aliens.
 As it stands there would seem to be a technical question of eth nological character, heretofore misunderstood, which may con- trol the situation and perhaps solve the. problem, .n
