DIALEcTs MANY AND VARIED
Genesis of the Travelling American May Be Pretty Well Recognized
 by His Speech.

A survey just completed shows that S3 languages are in daily use in New York, not Including three or four kinds of English. There is highbrow Eng fish. lowbrow English and the R-less variety. besides the strange. inexplica- ble coekney kind. which gives all "er'' sounds the sound of "oi." We say in- applicable, for we have never seen ex- pIained why in certain New York yer nacuIar third Is .'thoid," bird Is ''boid'' and curse is "coise.''
 Sometime. somewhere, that enuncia- ton must have begun-whether on the BOwery or in Harlem or even in Broad way, nobody seems to know. Was it in existence in 1880? The New York lit erature of that era does not seem to so indicate. The converse of the boot blacks and juvenile street sweepers> of the mild and innocuous fiction of those days reveal almost a Sunday school diction. The "coise" has swept over Manhattan since then. It came with the melting pot and may be part of 1t, for all we know.
 u The United States is large enough to contain a number of dialects and ,al- ready it does contain them, so that one's genesis Is pretty we'll distin- guished by his speech. We know New England by its ''loffing" laugh and they know us by our '1arfng" one. "Ask' in some parts of the South Is as fiat tened out almost as the "a'' in "bake, <" while still remaining "osk" in Massa- chuSettS.
 Our pIuribus unum language is truly that kind, and likely to ecOme more pluribus as the country grows older.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

ToMBs THAT ARE INDIVIDUAL
Resting Places of Chinese Rulers So Constructed. as to Reveal Char
 acter of Occupants.

At the Tung Ling, or Eastern TOmbs of the Manchus, nature has worked hand in hand with man to produce a harmonious whole, writes Roy Chap, man Andrews in Asia Magazine. Most of the trees about the tombs have been planted, but they have been so cleverly chosen and placed that they look as if they had grown just where in natures scheme of things, they ought to be-. There is nothing glar- ingly artificial In. the appearance. of the park.
 Although the tombs are alike In gen. eral plan. they are at the same time as individual as were the emperOrs themselveS. Each is a subtle express sion of the character of the one who sleeps beneath the yellow roof. The tomb of Ch'ien-Lung. the artist emper- or. lies not far away from that of the empress dowager. Stately, beau- tiful in its simplicity, 1t Is an indica- ton of his life and deeds Tn striking contrast is the palace built by the enl- press, for her eternal dwelling. Ex- travagantly decorated, vaingIoriously declaring to Che world the millions spent npon it, 1t represents admirably the personality of the iron-willed ruler who In life held her place by force and Intrigue and lavish expenditure and who was determined to be known, even in death as the greatest of the great. But hundred years from now when Ch'ien-Lung's mausoIe- um, like the painting of an old mas- ter. has been made even more beauti- ful by the touch of age, that of the empress will be worn and tarnished.

AustraIia's PriekIy Pear Pest.

Australia is suffering from 8 prick ly pear pest, which takes advantage of the rivers, as a means of spreading. Shoots break off from the parent plant growing along stream and the part is carried downstream to found new colony. Thousands of acres are being ruined yearly owing to the ray ages of this plant and no means have been discovered of stopping its march. Rolling, spraying and pOisons have proved ineffectual, and it is hoped that science may find some commercial use for the plant

TOPICS OF WALL STREET.
Exchanges Renctionary.

reaction In principal rates for for
eign exchange occurred yesterday. but II
was accounted for by the rapidity of the
advance during the last few days. The
reaction, however. was smaller than had
been previous movements Immediately
following an upward splurge and was
limited by scarcity of bills anu letters
of credit. Experts said that the trend
OF sterling exchange was higher. as ex-
pressed In terms of the dollar. 1t was
pointed out that the movement of cor
porations and institutions to remit
sterling to London TO establish credits
for international transactions had not
been completed. The constant tendency
OF British exports to increase and Inn
ports to diminish makes attractive con-
verting dollars Into sterling even at
present rates. counting on steady up
ward movement In sterling to permit
reconversion into dollars whenever the
state OF American business requires re-
turn OF the funds.

The rate for prime bankers accept
ances continued to be SIS per cent buy

ments into which he had entered,
though later they proved unwise.
"He seemed to resent any influence
exerted on him to decide a matter in a
certain way" If the President failed
in full realization of his purposes.
says the ex-Secretary, it was not be-
cause of lack of good intentions, but
because of "inexperience in negotiat-
ton, of exaggeration of the impor-
tance of adopting the covenant and of
overconfidence in the motives of
Others"
Representative of small nations
who first acclaimed the President,
eventually lost confidence in him,
though it was impossible, because of
the nature of their claims, that the
President reconcile them.
"From the time he became aware
of the true state of affairs the states
men of Allied Powers found him less
pliable and apparently less credulous
of their announced intentions"
