VaQs Sentenced To Baths

Pueblo, COlo., Feb. 19.-"Baths are
what you fellows need, not prison SEN
tences," said Magistrate Crossman in
police court when three men were ar
raigned for vagrancy.
Instead of imposing fines and Jail
terms on the trio the Judge gave five
baths for one culprit, seven for an
other and ten duckings were the por-
tion of the third.
The police were ordered to see that
the ablutions were performed, after
which the men will be released.

WITH THE PASSING OF MAN
Writer 10 Looking Somewhat to the
Future, but the Times Seem to
Warrant It.

Man: A once useful animal. who
lived on the earth for the purpose of
enabling woman to reach her present
exalted position. Strange as it may
seem, it is doubtful If without him
woman could be what she is at pres.
ent. Man was employed on railroads.
in mines and at the head Of primitive
states. He was also used in the
army and waited upon the table in
palm rooms. Some of the rarest and
crudest works of art. poetry and
drama were fashioned by man before
woman came to her own. 1t is said
he was possessed at one time Of q
strange illusion that he was necessary.
Since man has gone out, his place In
evolution is we'll recognized. it being
thought that without him our present
financial system would not be what
it is. Aside from this. however. no
permanent use has been discovered
for man. He appears to have been
a parasite, was filled up to the
gap between the old regime and the
new. At one time man was thought
to be immortal, but this view was
held almost entirely by himself

VITAL GROWTH OF GERMANY
lnereass Of Population, a. Of Wealth.
Must 30 Most Gratifying TO the
Country.

Ap,tmportant work on the progress
of Germany and its social development
during the last. fifty years has Just
been published by DR.. Helfrerich, the
director Of the German bank. The
most satisfactory feature in this rec
ord is the increase in Germany's popu.
lation. In 1916 Germany had 25,O00,OO
inhabitants; in 1888 100000, and in
1912, 66,00O,OOO. 1t is true that the
percentage of births has fallen from
4O.7 per 1000 to 29.5. In spite Of this
fall the proportional yearly increase
in Germany is larger than in any other
European country. Russia included.
and is nearly per cent. more than in
Great Britain, although the death.rate
in Germany is still higher than in
this country. In fact, the increase In
the German population is progressive.
In the period 1SS1-9O this increase
amounted to 5k millions; in 1891-19OO
to 7.3 millions, and in the next ten
years to s 2-3 millions. This was part
~ due to the decrease in emigration.
as well as to the rapid decline in the
death-rate. It is estimated that in 1850
Germany will have nearly one hundred
million people. In these circum.
stances it is not surprising that the
vital statistics of the country, as ex-
planned in DR.. Helfterich's book, should
cause serious misgivings in France

Rand Gold Industry,

The economic value of the South
African gold industry and the conse.
quences to the world at large. should
Z strike ever close the mines for any
length of time, are difficult to esti.
mate. Last year. according to the
London Chronicle. almost 3S,00O,000
pounds sterling worth Of gold was ta-
ken out of the mines of the wit
watersrand." A large part Of this vast
sum remained in the country to be
used to pay the wages Of the $4,000
Europeans employed in the mines and
Of the almost 100000 natives.
The recent Industrial upheaval In
the Rand" has called more attention
to the Reef that supplied the whole
world with the greater part Of its gold.
because the money centers of Europe
openly feared that even a temporary
suspension of work in South Africa
would paralyze the worlds finances.
But, fortunately, this has been averted
by the speedy termination Of the
strike

The Rhino Of PompeiI.

Animal stories are somewhat rare
IN archaeology, but these pictures will
help to tell a story which has been
occupying the serious attention OF
German antiquaries. Before the Ber-
lin Society of the History Of Art, DR..
Harry David recently announced his
discovery Of fraud" in the Naples
museum, in the shape Of the bas-relief
Of rhinoceros said to have been
found at Pompeii.
The doctor triumphantly pointed out
that the bas-relief was really q copy
Of a drawing by Durer in the British
museum, and that. therefore. the ltal-
fans had been deceived. The Italian
authorities. however. retorted by stat
Ing that the bas-relief did not appear
In any official catalogue, and that. AZ
matter Of fact, the fraud" was
really the result of book by Ger
man writer!
