n of tlio (lMiMrMt .Street.
Ono of "tlio queerest stroela In thn
world is In Canton, China. Tho street
Is occupied exclusively by dentists and
apothecaries. It Is entirely roofed
ovor with glazed paper and contains
more signs, cards and billboards than
any other Htreut In tho world!

Princess Maud, Queen Alexandra's
favorite daughter, can bind books atid
nurBo a sick patient scientifically; she
can also sail a half-rater, rldo a bi
cycle, spin and sew, play chess, mid
converge in flyo languages, including
Hussion. She vies with her mother In
being an expert photographer.
t Pointer for l'orto Kino.
Tho Detroit Journal kindly points
out that tho Porto KicauH, If deprived
of tho privilege of indulging in cock
fight lug, can nmusu themselves by
clocking their horses' tails. They can
also allow their children to uso air
guns and giant firecrackers. The.ro
uro plenty of civilized ways of being
barbarous.
Huh I.oMt Itn Knerirr
A thunderstorm Is defined as a rapid
gyration or eddy in tho overpowering
cool How of air, by which it Is im
pelled forward, and often enabled, as
n mighty engine, to cut its way
through tins giant hot wave or roll
its overheated masses far away. That
cool flow of air in tho west of Into
Heoms to have lost its energy.
College for Wimherwoiiien.
A college for washerwomen bus been
opened in New York by the charity
organization society. Tho course is
'l daily lessons nnd tho students re
ceive OP cents a day and luncheon. Jn
Ktruotors tench tho nature of fabrics
nnd the best methods of cleansing
them, and exorcise a strict supervision
until tho pupil receives a certificate.
Too Muuli SiuokliiB.
"Hilly" West, tho minstrel, may
never again appear on tho stage. An
nouncement was mado a day of two
ago that West is suffering from enn
ccr of tho mouth and throat, brought
on by excessive smoking. Ills physi
cians told him mouths ago that ho
would have to stop smoking. Ho die
for a time, but resumed tho practice
until tho disease took a firm hold upon
him.
Arithmetic, Reform.
Common sense Is to hnvo some part
In tho teaching of arithmetic in tho
Philadelphia public schools, when thoy
open next month. Children of nlno to
ten years in that city will not strug
glo hereafter with bewildering prob
lems In "compound interest," "cus
toms" and "partial payments." Or.
Urooks, at thu head of tho school sys
tem In tho city, is satisfied also that
not ono child in 1,000 will ovor have
occasion In later lifo to uso tho rules
designated.
Pulpit anil l'or.
In tho current number of tho In
terior, Luther Lullin Mills fakes up tho
cudgels in behalf of tho ministers of
tho country, who, ho says, do not. rc
celvo tho support and assistanco they
liavo a right to expect from tho great
body of lnymen in tho pows. Tho ut
titudo of tho pew towards tho pulpit
is, in tho opinion of Mr, Mills, too like
ly to bo critical and censorious, while
It should bo helpful and inspiring. In
the wide spread of this feeling ho finds
reason for tho comparatively slow
march of tho church.

A School for Tauoliurft.
Hau Juan, 1. It., July 23. Much in
terest Is manifested in school work
in J'orto Hlco by teachers and schol
ars alike. In schools in tho United
states, as a rule, the students look for
ward to the closing days of tho spring
term and hail tho first day of the
long summer vacation with delight.
In this l'orto Itico children aro differ
ent from their northern cousins. Hero
the rising generation reluctantly left
tho schoolroom on tho last day of tho
term and such a demand was mndo for
ull-summcr schools that arrangements
have been mndo for them In several
towns.
Ground will be broken next week
for a complete professional school
to train teachers at Hlo Viedras. About
COO tenchers and prospective teach
ers have signified their intention to
attend this summer school. Hy the
time for the autumn term to open
more than 30 new schoolhouses will
have been completed. Hut oven then
there will not bo accommodations for
half tho children of school age. Extra
buildings in all towns will have to be
retired, as It is quite probable- that
the school attendance next year will
be doubled.

iest on record and nearly 5,000 great

vious record was on October 9, 1900,
when 21,015 arrived. If tho railroads
aro able to supply tho demand for
cars, tho receipts Tuesday may be fully-
as leavy, or ever greater. Tim
heavy movement is due to thu drought
and thu attractive prices paid last
week by exporters, as shown by tho
fact that nearly two-thirds of tho ar

10 to 25 cents lower and closed 25
to 40 cents lower.

Manila, July 23. Tho. confcrencc3
butween Adjt. Gen. Corbin nnd Gen.
Chuffcc, recently held here, will prob
ubly result in radical economical and
administrative reforms in the army
of occupation. It Is estimated that
tho total cost of maintaining the
American nrmy in the Philippines enn
be reduced by CO per cent, in the
courso of ono yenr. The principal
change will be the reduction of the
present force to between 20,000 and
30,000 men. Tho abolishment of the
present army districts is contem
plated and three brigades, with per
manent headquarters at Manila, Dag
upan and Hollo or Cebu, will bu insti
tuted in their stead. The troops will
bo concentrated at three points su
lected, abandoning all minor posts.
These changes will result in an enor
mous saving in tho transportation of
supplies and the paying of rental for
barracks for the soldiers. At present
in most towns tho troops are quar
tered In churches, convents and pub
lic and private buildings, for t3io
use of which considerable rentals are
paid.
