SKETCH OF JESUIT ORDER.

Interesting Account Prepared by
Washington Truth Society.
The Washington Truth Society's press
committee, in an article prepared for its
monthly publication, The Bulletin, gives
the following brief sketch Of the Order
of Jesuits:
I'm the sixteenth century. Ignatius
Loyola, a Spanish nobleman. was wound
ed so badly in the service of his coun-
try that he became unfit for the life OF
soldier. He retired as a hermit TO the
cave of Manresa, where he spent a
month meditating on his spiritual condi-
ton, as well as on his future duty. He
concluded that, instead OF serving the
King of Spain, he WOULD serve the King
of Kings, and planned the organization
of a militant legion, under the name of
the Society Of Jesus commonly referred
to as the Order Of Jesuits.
THE intention of this legion was the
propagation of the faith and the ad-
vancement of Christian frontiers. They
are not monks, as some persons suppose;
they are spiritual soldiers. They are
probably the most powerful organization
in the Christian world, numbers consid-
cred. 1t takes twenty-one years to pre-
pare the mind of a Jesuit for holy or
ders. Sometimes it takes more. accord

considers that. when the public becomes
familiar with the advantages of the tun-
mel. at least 1.l5O.Oo0 Of these passengers
will travel through the tunnel every year.
With regard 10 the goods traffic, about
$40. 10000 worth of merchandise now
crosses annually between England and
continental ports. Baron d'Erlanger be-
lieves that about S2l5, 000, 900 worth of
goods bound for England would be d.
verted from ships to the channel tunnel.
and about S105 900 600 worth of the goods
sent from England to the continent. The
total freight passing through the tunnel
annually would be, he estimates. about
0c0 tons, and il Is calculated that six
ty-three trains day would carry the esti-
mated traffic.
1t is further reckoned that the work
ing expenses would be about So, OGOCO
and that the gross receipts would amount
to s6,7s0OOO. Accepting these estimates,
there would remain 81, $4,000 a year with

GINO {. sPERANZA,

Our legislation which aims at safe
guarding our native stock against
the degeneration of its racial or ma
tionaT' type has recently been reviewed
in an interesting way by DR.. Alessandro
Clerici, writing in the Rivista Colonlale,
of Rome. The article, though briet, is
sqotable. not merely from the interest
ing manner in which 1t treats the SUD-
jeCt, but because of its calm ana uh-
biased attitude toward the SUBJECT OF
inquiry-an attitude sadly lacking IN
most studies of things American by
Italian writers.
Dr Clerici points out how the ques-
tious of racial hygiene in North Amer
lea present themselves in a more COM
plfcated form than in Europe, where
the native stock of each country is well
fixed and where economic changes and
the evolution of customs are relatively
slow In Europe. therefore, the forces
which NAV affect a given nationality
can be easily controlled by proper
legislative measures. With US, instead,
immigration is so heavy that 1t may
modify in essential elements the par
ent stock" and especially that part of
it which directs social movements. So
likewise there is no doubt that Gus
toms with us are unstable and our
ideas of individual and POLITICAL NOR
ality most uncertain.
In the dangers incident to the violent
changes that take place among US, DR..
Clerici finds Justification for many Of the
radical measures which our legislators
have resorted to- though they appear ex-
.Cessive and inopportune to many sOciolo-
'Fists and political men of Europe. Among
these measures may be cited our immi-
grafton laws, the legislation aiming at
negro separation and disfranchisement,
and the sterilization of criminals.
The problem of protecting our national
stock is further accentuated by two fac
tors: Our failing birth rate and the nu-
merical insufficiency of the native stock
10 develop our lands or TO protect them
for military purposes. While a falling
birth rate is observable also among
European nations, yet in those countries
with the possible exception of Franco
there is an excess of population in rela-
tion TO soil resources; with us, instead,
the native stock is not only scarce in
relation to the possibilities of land eX-
ploitation, but it has become so special
lied in industrial and business pursuits
as to be now incapable of undertaking
on a sufficiently effective scale that work
OF improving and exploiting ''our land

Yet. despite such decrease, our popula-
ton is in constant increase, owing to an
average annual immigration to our
shores of nearly 100000 persons. 1t is
this alien element which gives us an
index of births which is supernormal.
The restrictive measures of 1907 against
Tndesirables, though applied with no
very definite tests, represent a fair selec-
tive principle working on this rough

HOW SPIDERS SAIL BALLOONS

This is the time Of year when spider
aeronauts begin to make their flights.
The country boy especially is familiar
with the balloons which as common
spider threads are strung thick along the
fence which he follows TO and from
school. At every step he brushes from
his face the gossamer which is too thick
to be avoided.
A Hyatt Verrill, In Harper's Book for
Young Naturalists.'' tells about these
common spiders which use their thread
for balloons. and by their aid travel
through the air for long distances some
times hundreds OF miles"
when the little aeronaut wishes to
make an ascension" says Mr.. Verrill,
''he climbs to the highest spot he can
find, such as a fence post. low bush. or
the tip OF a blade OF grass. and here.
holding by his forefeet. he stretches his
body upward and rapidly spins out a
thread. The free end of this line is car
ried up and away by the breeze and
rising warm air, until at last, enough
having been spun to lift the spiders
weight, he lets go his hold and sails
gayly away.
Perhaps you think this simple. breeze
borne thread should not be dignified by
the name of balloon but nevertheless
the little spider can regulate his speed
and sail in safety far more successfully
than did even the famous Wright broth
ers. If the breeze freshens he has only
to gather in some loose silk. while IL 1t
grows calm and he falls earthward he
can spin out yard after yard of floating
gossamer. These flying spiders are very
common, for the habit is almost general
among many species Of young spiders.

see hundreds of their threads streaming
