dealers to be worth in the neighbor-
hood of s1,O00,000, and all the money
derived from its sale will go into the
new institution.
A bill was passed by congress a
number of years ago, authorizing its
sale, but with the provision that not
more than 100000, of the proceeds
could be used on a new hospital.
The government acquired the present
marine hospital site in 1887, at a cost
of $4,000. The institution was erect
ed nine years later, and now is filled
to capacity with Sc patients, more than
half of them disabled veterans of the

Picking "Capital Sheet"
Worlds Oldest Paper

From Cleveland Plain DealerI
The oldest newspaper in the world
is the King Pau, or Capital Sheet,
published in Picking, China. 1t was
printed first in GIL A. D., and for
many Years was issued only at ir-
regular intervals. Since 1851 it has
been published weekly and in uni
form size. During the present CEN
fury and perhaps longer the paper has
been released about noon. Until 1882
it confined it's news to council and
court news. Since then it has been
issued in new form and on a new
plan. The King-Pau is printed on vel
low paper. 1t sells for cash, some
thing less than cent. Three editions
are printed daily. All issues of the
King Pau are edited by six members
of the National Academy of Sciences.
They are appointed by the Chinese
government The total number of
daily copies is from $4,000 to $4,000.
