Manchuria Coveted by Both
Japan and Russia. .
LAND OF MANY TONGUES
It It a Vait Fertile Country, Whoso
Mountains Aro Full of Mineral
Wealth. Splendid Harbors. The
Precent Chinese Imperial Dynasty
Is Manchurian.
Manchuria, the act-no of the renter
battles In the- Eastern war as at pres
ent planned, lg a mountiUnmi.s province
of the Chinese Empire as larne as all
our Now England and Middle States,
with Colorado thrown In. Its popu
lation Is much less dense than that of
our Eastern States or that of China
proper. The latest estimates give It
nearly the population of New York
and Massachusetts combined about
1,600,000.
The original Manchurians were not
Chinese. They were a part of the
"outside barbarian" world against
which the Chinese built their great
wall. The present Chinese Imperial
dynastyy, however. Is Manchurian,
coming from Mukden, the Manchu
capital, where their dead ancestors
re burled. Hence Mukden Is a sacred
etty In the eyes of Chinese courtiers,
and Its capture by the Japs In the re
cent war had a corresponding politi
cal effect.
The Mancu language is employed In
the Chinese court, but Is not under
stood by the Chinese proper. When
Manchuria was added to the empire it
was under-populated, much as out
country was by the Indians, and to fill
It up the Chinese transplanted there
Chinese Mahometans from Central
Asia and other mixed peoples. For
this reason the inhabitants of Man
churia are now of many races and
tongues, a fuot which makes it easier
to hold them in subjection.
Newcbwang. at the apex of the Gulf
of Llaotung, Is In about the latitude
of New York City. Tort Arthur Is at
the point of a long peninsula which
divides the Gulf of Pochill from the
Yellow Sea, and which Is fancifully
known as "The KeRont's Sword." Its
latitude Is that of Baltimore.
The climate, however, seems to be
more severe In Southern Manchuria
than In Npw York and Baltimore. The
presence of the vast mass of the
Asian continent behind the Yellow Sea
subjects the const to blizzards from
the west which make the winter bitter
told.
Russia has In Manchuria two claims
one good, the other good enough to
bluff upon until Is "called." She has a
legal right under treaty with China to
maintain her railroads In Manchuria
and to keep troops there to guard the
lines. Since the Boxer troubles, how
ever, Russia has kept strong bodies of
troops In towns that are nowhere near
the railroads, practically occupying
and controlling the whole country. It
la this latter and wider occupations,
permitted at the time as a supposed
measure of safeguarding foreigners In
China during the troubles, that Russia
has promised again and again to end
bat has not ended.
Manchuria's possibilities may be
compared roughly to those of our
North Atlantic States. Its splendid
wheat harvests call every year thou
aands of Chinese laborers northward
and many of these remain. The moun
tains are full of mineral wealth, the
fields are broad and fertile, the har
bors excellent and commanding from
the military point of view. Port Ar
thur commands Peking and the most
populous provinces of China.
The people of China proper and of
Manchuria have to a considerable ex
lent swapped places. Hundred of
thousands of Manchus have gone
south to become the warriors and the
eovrt dignitaries and the provincial
governors of China. Most of the fine,
$)) handsome men whom In this coun
try we have seen as representatives of
the Chinese Empire have been of orig
inal Manchu stock. Meanwhile the
active little Chinese of the more usual
washee-washee type have swarmed
over Manchuria doing most of Its
smaller retail trade just as the larger
trade and commerce have been In Jap
anese hands, despite the Russian oc
cupation. Of late Russia has had Its wanting
eye upon Corea for a curious reason.
The port of Masampho, at the extreme
southern tip of Corea, Is, Ice-free. Vla
divostok, the original terminus of the
Siberian Railroad, Is closed by ico for
months every winter. When they got
Port Arthur the Russians at once
abandoned work at Vladivostok, di
verted the stream of emigration to
Port Arthur and near the latter place
planned the great new city of Dalny.
Now It appears that Port Arthur Itself
la not wholly Ice-free. Masampho Is.
For hundreds of years the huge
Northern Bear has been struggling
to escape from the ice and snow that
rtm his blrthplaco. This la the serret
of his activity In the Far East.
Total Length Submarine Cable.
There are 200,000 miles of subma
rine cables, enough to go eight times
around the globe. Tlielr cost was
about $200,000,000. Their present
value Is $300,000,000. Deep-sea cables
ar a solid Investment. The shortest
cable Is one-fourth mile la length; the
longest Is 15.000 miles. The total
number Is 1,700.
A curious phenomenon has been no
ticed In tho tropics that can never be
wen in higher latitudes. A mining
shaft at Sombrero, Mexico, Is almost
exactly on tho tropic of Cancer, and
t noon on June 21 the sun shines to
tie bottom, lighting up tho well for a
varUoal depth, of 1,100 feet or more.
WORLD'S LONGEST RAILWAY.
Difficulties Encountered In Building
Trans-Siberian R.R.
The Siberian Railway Is at once the
longest and best known railroad in
the world. Russia commenced to
build her great railway early lu the
seventies. The work of construction
was pushed with all possible despatch.
By the year 1877 the great line had
been constructed as far as Orenburg.
It was not until 1880, however, that
the great bridge was completed over
the Volga.
The section connecting tho Volga
and the Obi River basins was then
be-uu. Tho first work on the real
Transsiberlan Railway was com
menced May 9, 1891.
The difficulties encountered In
building the great line have been
enormous. There have been a num
ber of rivers to be bridged each offer
ing a problem of its own to the engi
neers. Several of these streams have been
a mile or more In width, with shores
of shifting sand In the summer season
and Ice fields In the winter.
In addition there have been miles
of hills which could only be passed by
tunnelling. The greatost problem,
however, has been presented by Lake
Baikal, the Holy Sea of Siberia. It Is
390 miles long and has an area of IS,
000 square miles.
On all sides hills arise abruptly to
a height of from 3,000 to 6,000 feet.
The depth of the lake, moreover, la
ao great that bridging is Impossible.
The lake Is also swept frequently
by frightful storms. In order to ob
viate this difficulty It has been neces
sary to build a road around the lake
a distance of more than a hundred
miles.
This road In places has been cut
through rock at enormous expense.
The rost of this section alone is near
ly $20,000,000. it will, besides, take
four or Ave years to complete the
line.
Mahometans and Dogs.
In Egypt dogs are never permitted
to enter the dwelling of a Mahome
tan; and If one is found In a mosque
ho Is Immediately put to death.
In consequence of this excommuni
cation from tho society which this
animal seems so instinctively dis
posed to cultivate, Egyptian dogs live,
for tho most part. In tho open air,
feeding upon garbage nnd any other
filth that chance throws In their way.
It is extremely curious to see the
pains taken by a mussulman and a
dog when they happen to meet to
avoid coming in contact with each
other. Notwithstanding thU state of
persecution, dogs are remarkably nu
merous in the towns of Egypt. The
pedes Is a large one, about the size
and make of the greyhound.
As a proof of the Mahometan preju
dice against this useful animal. It la
sufficient to state that they regard
the terms Christian and dog as
synonymous both, of course. In the
most opprobrious sense.
As a singular contrast for their dis
like for dogs, the Egyptians have ever
held cats In greatest veneration, and
In ancient time even worshiped them.
Bubastis and Atribes, two towns la
Egypt, the former a votary of cats
and the latter of mice, contracted on
that account so strong an antipathy
to each other that the Inhabitants
were never known to Intermarry, al
though only a few miles asunder.
In some parts of India, too, we are
told, they have a similar reverence
for Grimalkin, as the only crimes pun
ished capitally there are the murder
of a man and a cat. New Orleans
Times-Democrat.
Korean Kite-Fly Ing.
Everybody knows the fondness of
the adult Chinese for kite flying. The
Korean, however, puts this pastime
to a novel use. When the time
of good resolutions comes around at
the new year the Korean writes on a
kite all his faults, "evil dispositions,
lmnatience, bad words, street fights,"
etc. "It was so dark," say one Amer
ican residing In Korea, relating such
an Instances, "that no kite could be
seen, but when he had run the string
out to Its full length he cut It and
let It go, Imagining that so he had
rid himself of bis enemies and could
begin the new year with new cour-.ge.
"Each new year season there are
contests in kite flying, the object be
ing to cut the enemy's string and let
his kite go. In preparation for this a
str'ng Is twisted of silk and coated
with ground glass and porcelain mixed
with glue." Philadelphia Press.
The Food of Whales.
Minute vegetation which grows on
the surface of the ocean Is called
"grass of the sea" by most unscien
tific persons, through fishermen call It
"whales' food." The fact Is that
whales feed upon it, as do many
fishes, preferring It to animal food.
In a fossilized form, It has a special
value in the manufacture of dynamite.
When asked to say how many fossil
p'-nits were In a block of It, Prof.
Owen once replied: "Put It down 1,
then add a lot of naughts. In fact,
you can be as naughty as you like."
They Never Drink Water.
There are hundreds of horses and
thousands of cattle In the Hawaiian
Islands which never take a drink of
water thotighout the whole course of
their lives. On all the islands the
upper altitudes of tho mountains are
given up. to cattle ranges. Except
possibly two or three months In tho
ra!ny season thero aro no streams or
pools of water In any part whero tho
cattle roam, but everywhere there
grows a recumbent, Jointed grass
krowu by the native name of "man
lni i." This Is both food and drink.

Panama Official Opinion I:avors
Abolishment Monopolies,
INCOAlE Or THE LOTTERY
Btarts without Debt Burden, and with
Revenue from Canal Funds, from
Canal Rental, and from Gambling
and Lottery Concessions, Hopes to
Accumulate a Surplus.
Among tho policies which have
been practically settled upon for the
new republic of Panama Is Unit con
cerning monopolies. These monopo
lies, or "concessions," are as follows:
Opium, held by Cupp Kon King;
two years to ruu; yearly rontalr $10,
OOO. Tobacco, held by Isaac Brandon &
Bro.; two years to run; yearly rental,
f-,000.
Cigarettes, held by 1'lza I'Iza;
two
years to run; rental, $4.1,000. j
Beef; one year to run; revenue at
$10 per male head and $H per female
bead, amounts to $150,000. (No man 1
allowed to kill his own beef without
this tribute to the monopolist.)
Pork; one year to rum; revenue at
$4 per head amounts to $47,000. i
('.ambling, held by Pratt A Key- '
mour; one year to run; rental $."(!, OOO
yearly for Panama, $20,000 for Colon; j
total $82,000 yearly. I
Salt, held by an Aguadulce con-
tractor: ends In May. Cost of produc- ;
tlon. fifty cents a hundredweight;
sold to flovernment at $1.N0; sold by j
Government to consumers nt $4.
Ice; concesslonnalro unable to pay,
so (iovernment is running plant with
J. (). Duqun In charge as receiver;
normal yield of revenue $24,000
yearly.
Lottery, held by J. (S. Iniiine and
sto'-k company; seventeen years to
run; yields (iovernment .r per cent,
on total value of prizes, which
meant In old uniil times $200,000 rev
enue yearly, but now amounts to only .
$."0,000. '
Public and official opinion seems to
favor the abolition of all these con
cessions except those for the gsimbling
and the lottery. Holders of other
monopolies will bo reimbursed and
their trade thrown open to competi
tive methods. It Is argued regarding
gambling that to have it in the hands
of one firm "Is better than to have a
roulette wheel on every corner." Such
are the tidbits of the people, that to
prohibit gambling altogether Is not
consldored practicable. Everybody
gambles, except perhaps railway offi
cers and bankers and merchants, who
desire that their credit shall be like
Caesar's wife. There are two roulette
wheels In Panama and two In Colon.
One is In n doorless room on the main
floor of the chief hotel or open as at
Monte Carlo. Women do not play, but
those who are traveling through the
Isthmus often enter as spectators.
Either the people have not much
money, or their Inclinations are un
der control, for none of the wheels
flourish. The wheels are uncovered
only In the evening, and often net
then If there are not enough players
to make it appear worth while. Lights
are put out before midnight; In two
weeks one has seen everything closed
as early as nine o'clock, simply be
cause there were no players left.
The lottery has charitsble features
connected with Its operation. This,
as In the ease of the Louisiana Lot
tery, will make It hard te dislodge It
By law the ceacesslonnalre Is re
quired te give In prises 64 per cent,
of the, money taken In through the
sale of tickets. Five per cent, must
be. paid to the Government, and 3 per
cent, must be paid towards the main
tenance of public hospitals. At pres
ent the lottery supports four free hos
pitals. Drawings are held In the
Plaza Sta. Anna every Sunday at one
o'clock la the afternoon. A consider
able crowd gathers. A little girl Is
blindfolded, and from a revolving cy
linder she draws four numbers. Thus,
If the first is 9, the second 7. the third j
2 and tha fourth 5. the wlnntnr num. ,
her for tba capital prise will be 9.725,
There are approximation prizes also;
o that In each drawing there are al
together 1,018 premiums; one for $3,
OOO, 18 for 150, 9 for flOO, 90 for 95,
900 for $2. In case only 6,000 of the
10,000 tickets are sold, the lottory
"would lose $420. But It happens fre
quently that the number winning: the
grand prize has not been sold. Con
sequently the lottery Is sure to be
profitable to its operators in the long
run.
"Poesn't It take a lot of money from
the very poor?" you ask; and the
Panamanian replies:
"Oh, yes; but they would gamble In
some way; and this Is a fair Rame.
Besides, It has given many individu
als a. fortunQ."

RAILROAD DISCIPLINE.
How the "Brown" Method of Enforce
Ing Regulations Works.
; Sixty railroad lines in the I'nlted
state, embracing one-third '
j .ySrXrVti:!, Vr'
ployes. The rules are, of eourso
modified to meet local conditions, but
the genial plan Hs one Invented nnd
first used by (ienernl SiipprtiiiPitilrnt
(Jeorge R. Brown, of the Full llrook
rallrond, of New York, to check un
just discharge of employes and to lm-
j prove the relations between employ
ers and workmen.
The "llrown system" lias for Its
foundation a "record book" In which
Is kept a personal record of every
employe of tho road. In It Is written
a brief statement of every irregubirlfy
for which each workman Is responsl-
I ble. When a man begins to make a
record In the book he Is called to
headquarters nnd talked to. He Is net
i suspended; he Is merely warned. Rut
wnen the PBe I nllc'1 wl'h "Irregu-
larltles," the account la usually closed
with the words, 'Ulschnrged. incom
petent." For every Item entered against the
employe a bulletin Is posted In a con
spicuous place, telling what the fault
Is, how It could have been avoided,
and how It affects the company's In
terests. These bulletins are drended
as much as the "hiy-ofT" for which
they are substituted in the "IJrown
system."
The objects sought have been sum
marized in reports the most Impotant
are:
"Avoiding loss of time and warms
of employes, resulting in possible suf
fering to those dependent on tholr
earnings, as well as demoralization of
employes by enforced idleness.
"Avoiding unnecessary seventy In
the dismissal of an employe, or re
quiring him to serve an actual sus
pension for a single offense that does
not injuriously reflect upon Its reputa
tion, conduct, capacity or futuro use
fulness In the service.
"Advancing the education of em
ployes through the medium of bulletin
notes, enabling them to avoid the mis
takes made by others."
The causes for instant dismissal
have been greatly reduced by the
adoption of the general rule of the
"Itrown system." The rules, how
ever, are not intended to operate in
cases of disloyalty, dishonesty, deser
tion, habitual intemperance, insub
ordination, immorality or avoidable
violation of rules whereby the com
pany's property Is endangered or de
stroyed. World's Work.
Ireland's Lost Population.
Ireland Is a country which still
loses thousands of Its natural Increase
of population by emigration. In which
more boys are born than girls, and
the most fatal epidemic Is Influenza.
The population of Ireland in 1902,
according to the Registrar-General's
return, was 4,432.274. The marriages,
numbering 22.049, and the births, 101,
803, show a slight increase on the
average of ten years. The deaths 77,
670, were a trifle below the average.
The excess of births over deaths be
ing 24.187, and the loss by emigration
amounting to 40,11)0, there was a de
crease In the population during the
year of 16,003, less whatever Immi
gration there was, of which no record
Is kept. London Mall.

You Can Scratch
Out the blot which defiles the clean,
white pajre of a ledger, but you can't
scratch out the poisons that defile the
blood. It seems rather that you scratch
them in, and the irritation grows worse
with each new attempt to relieve it.
There is only one thing to do in such a
case, and that is to entirely cleanse the
blood from the Infecting poison.
People who have suffered from dis
eases canted by iu-.pure blood, or blood
poiftoning, have found in Dr. Pierce's
' Golden Medical Discovery a certain and
enduring cure. Lotions and liniments
may alleviate, but they cannot cure.
The disease is in the blood, and the cure
must be In the blood alto. "Golden
Medical Discovery " eradicates from the
blood the impurities and poisons which
breed and feed disease. It increaset the
' activity of the blood-making glands, and
to increases the supply of pure, rich
blood, which, nourishing each organ,
1 builds up the whole body in health and
strength.
The cures effected by "Golden Medical
I Discovery " are positive and permanent.
In many cases of disease, such as eczema,
tetter, pimples, eruptions and rheuma
tism, an effectual cure has been found in
l)r. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
after all other medicines and means bad
: failed to help or beal.
1 Sometimes a dealer tempted by the
larger profits paid by less meritorious
medicines will offer the customer a sub
stitute in place of "Golden Medical Dis
covery" claiming that he knows it to be
"just as pood." There is nothing gained
by trading one thing for another which
is only "just as good." There is every
thing to risk in trading the "Discovery "
with a world's record of cures for a sub-
. stitute with nothing but the unsupported
claim of an interested dealer behind it.
I If you are sick you want to be cured.
That's why you want "Golden Medical
Discovery " and nothing else.
! There is no alcohol in the "Discov-
J ery," and it is entirely free from opium,
cocaine, ami all other narcotics.
SUFFERED HORRORS.
William I'lotter, Esq., of Rrilonk, Montgom
ery Co., Iowa. writes : I cousirit-r your ' ('.olden
Medical Discovery one of the bent medicines on
t'.ie face of the earth. While in the south-west,
three yean afco, I (fot poisoned with poison
ivy. The poison nettled in my blood and the
horrors I suffered cannot be told in words. I
thought I would go crazy. I could do nothing
but scratch. I would go to sleep scratching,
would wake up in the morning and find myself
scratching. I scratched for eight months. Had
It not been lor 'Uolden Medical Discovi
would be scratching yet. I tried different
of medifine. tried different doctors, but a
relief they could give rue was to make my
pocket-book lighter.
"I then began taking Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. Took four bottles without
any relief. Kept on taking it. I took in all
ten bottles and I got entirely cured. 1 can say
that if people would take your medicine instead
of fooling with some of the quack that infest
the small and larger towns, disease would flee
