TO RECLAIM EARTH EATERS ladlaa Xatlvea Arc to Be Prevailed I poa to Atop f oauililna Clay. CAl-CUTTA. Jan. 27. (Special, Cablegram to The Bee.) Efforts are being made to stamp out the habit of earth eating which is prevalent among natives over almost all of India. In northern India the favorite form of earth consumed is the gray or drab-rolorea shade. This is excavated mostly at Meth, in Blkanir, and is exported to the Punjab at the rate of 2.000 camel loads a year. In different districts different kinds of clay are eaten. ut if the natives have at one tlmd a tnste for a special kind of mud as the liuhlt Increases the depraved oppetlte soon becomes satlsfled with bricks and broken pots.

The habit is not always confined, ss might be Imagined, to the lower ordeTs. A university graduate confessed to a friend that the bland earthy odor was a great temptation tn him and that the very thought of It made his mouth wster. He always enjoyed the odor, he said, when showers fell upon previously parched earth. The effects of the habit are disastrous. Those worm n addicted to It very soon complain, first of pain snd weakness In the limbs, then of palpitation and difficulty ef walking a little distance up hill. After some time all the other symptoms of anaemia are fully established sallow and pale complexion, tongue and gums blood less and general debility. Very often I drnnsv follows.

UNITE IN ATTACK ON THE SUN Seleatlsts Will Eadearor to Wrest Secrets from Soaree of Light. IvONnoX. Jsn. !7.-(Spclal Cablegram to Th Bee.) Prof II. H. Turner. Ravlllan professor at Oxford. In a lecture before th Royal Institute, made the announcement that at a ronferene of scientists at Ox- fo-d recently it whs decided to mak a resolute "attack" on the sun. A large number of astronomers, with Prof, lisle st their head, swore a solemn oath to devote all their energies to learning some thing more about It. Prof. Hale, according to Prof. Turner, is conducting his observations from an observatory on Mount Wilson. feet high, overlooking l.os Angeles, In Call- fornla. Prof. Turner said that on of j th reason why it had been decided to make this uniform scientific attack on th sun was found In the tact that It was th only star that could be studied in de- tall. There waa the advantage of history on th side of science. Inasmuch aa from tne oays or me rsruesi leicscnpe consul- erable attention had been directed to th sun. and tnat for many years it had been j photographed dally at Greenwich ohserra - lory. . in n.ina ieu, Upei m- csi- culalion of the astronomers of the world regarding the heat f th sun and made them anxious to learn more about that body was th discovery of radium.

The only way to overcome a na tional boycott of that character would be 10 establish new wholesalers and new re tailers, and this of course is not possible. ' Hnce It happens that flour shipped from California, Oregon and the state of Wash ington no longer competes on an economic basis with flour from Australia and other ports of the world. From reasons purely sentimental the Chinese are refusing to touch the American goods, no matter what the price. Hence It is that American trade In the o-ient Is taking a terrible tumble. But for the fact that American petroleum furnished by the Standard j Oil company figures so largely in oriental trade Ameri can commerce would ahow a still greater falling off. But the Stsndard Oil company has a practical monopoly, especially since the check put upon Kuaslan oil production as a result of the strikes and the riots in the Baku district. And having a prac tlcrj monopoly it la difficult to see how even the wily Chinaman can slop taking American ail. Spreads ta All Parts of Empire. One of the remarkable features about the Chinese boycott is found in the fart that though it is said to be in revenge for the exclusion of Chinese It originated in Shang hai, whence tin laboreta go to the United States. Since' then it has been as keenly prosecuted there as In Canton, the home of aot of -b -wernat emlfirWfrnr-te Anw rlesi This' In Itself would go a long ways to ward proving that other questions entered Into the equation besides the mere matter of emigration to the United States, and for this very reason It has been argued that it could not be so much an antl-Amrrican an an anti-foreign movement an appeal in fart to the same spirit which promoted -tho growth of Boxertsm. From Shanghai It has spread to all parts of the Chinese em pire except Tien Tsin. where the viceroy would bare none of It. But It even had an effect mure far-reaching than in China I alone. The Straits Settlement and all of the Islands In th vicinity of China have responded to the call of China for the Chi nese. The Initial steps were taken so far ss the world at large knows by the offi cial Chamber of Commerce, and not by th mercantile guild, which Indeed were busied later on In protecting their members. the bankers and the merchants, from th disastrous effects of th movement. But th strange pert about it all is that in reality official China does not appear to b in favor of the boycott, and It might have been supposed that official China would have influence enough to prevent th Chamber of Commerce from the tak ing of drastlo measures. One thing Is pretty certain, this medieval country has learned, partially at least. . to recognise th modem tnjtN thst all nations are one In matters of trade and that what Injures on cannot benefit another. This lesson driven horn by th fact that th Chi . nes merchants had contracted for many i months ahead for' th products of the ! American mills and were forced to meet ; their obligations If their financial standing was to be maintained, th result being tha thy and th hanks supporting them found themselves loaded i'P with these stocks for which th consuming markts had been erlpusly restrlctd. It cam horn with telling force to th Chinese merchants when msny of them had to pay thousand: and thousands of dollars for a release of I their contract obligations. For the agita . tlon had ben taken up by the young China sands of students who had passed Ihrnurh the schools of the various missions, Eng llsh and American, and especially by those who had acquired by a resident of a vr ! or two In Japan that superficial knowledge j which is always so dangerous.

LONDON. Jan. X7 Bpec,ial Cablegram to The Bee. William Waldorf Astor has de cided upon a plsn fir the restoration of the historic castle of Hever, which will have a tendency to restore to this property many of Its traditional) glories. Mr. Astor has kept his plana in connection with the Im provements of the castle of Hever a pro found secret, and It was not until he ac- tualty commenced the operations looking towards the Improvement of the property that any of his Ideas In this connection leaked out. Mr. Astor Is best known as a large landed property owner In England by his estate at Cliveden. But It his plans for the revival of the castle of Hever do not make this estate begin to compare with that of Cliveden It la certain that the prop erty wilt be Improved nntil In Its magnifi cence it surpassed even what It was bs'jk In the days of Anne Boleyn and King Henry VIII. This new Astor estate Is located In Kent on the banks of the River Eden. Already the old bridge across the river has been re moved preparatory to the building of a strong bridge with wide stains, broad road way and steel frames. Among the other plana for the Improvement msy be men tioned the following: Restoration of th castle to Its ancient Wttlemeuted glorl-e. j proximately SIO votes In the next Parlla Buildlng In ancient style a series of castle 1 ment, this estimate Including on the side villages.

RAILROAD MAN GIVES AWAY THE PRAM Letters of Employes Seat Vader Dares aad Do Hot Bepreseat tbo Real Seatlmaa of Maay of the Mao. (From a Staff Correspondent. ) WASHINGTON. Jn Z7.-Speelal Tele, gram, e Senator Burk"tt is not at all satis fied with the Joint sttehni)d bill aa it passed the house on Thursday. He la n tr.uslasilrally in favor of the admission of Oklahoma and Indian Terrleory as nr state, but is oppose! to the admrsaion of Arizona and New Mexico Into the hrotherhod of stales as a single state. Senator Burktt Is inclined to think that Senator Foraker's smendment. eontem llating the aJ'ul1n of but one state it this time. OklalHWiia and Indian Territory. Is the real sentiment of the American people If a vote could be taken on tbe proposition. Tet Senator Burkett Is afraM that if the Foraker amendment carries in th senate it might Jeopardlx statehood I-gislatkm. and shonld th house Insist on the bill which passed that body on Thursday. It might have the effect of de feating all the efforts to bring hi Okla homa. Should Senator Burkett become convinced that the passage of th Fora ker amendment would make impossible an aereemert between the hojse and senate. then Senator Burkett will vote for the bin ss it pa.sed the house, reluctantly, of course, but actuated solely by a desire to bring In Oklahoma. With many western snators Senator Burkett believe that Aiianna and w Mexico shonld be admitted Into the urnon when they are ready for statehood, as two separate states. He hi (Irmly convinced that any other coarse would be detrimental to the Interests of that great section of th country lying west of th Missouri. Before h" casts hi vote on the state hood proposition Senator Btirkett said to day that he would take counsel with the leaders st both nd ot the capltol and if there Is a chance of an agreement tn vote for the Forak"r amendment. If there appears to h no chance of an agreement he will vote for the Mil as It comes from the committee n terrl -tori, which will be an admlirtstraelnii measure. Wlllard with Party. , r Lately there has been considerable apeev lattnn aa to where Senator Millard wouM Und on the Philippine tariff Nil. state hood bill and railroad rate bill, ft Is now positively stated that Senator Millard will vote with the administration and with hi party on ull three of th measures. n the rhlllpplne tariff bill fWiator' Mil lard recalls how ridiculous he and Senator Iltrich appear"! when thv voted against Ih Cuban rclproclty treaty. Almost tb very day they were in Washington an tagonising th Cuban measure beoaus tltev believed. If passed, it would seriously af fect th bet sugar Interests of Nebraska, he republican state convention In session at Lincoln pa"ed resolutions urging the adoption of the Cuban reciprocity treaty. With this experience fresh in his mind Senator Millard said today, he was a parti san and would vote with hia party on ail these qntions now agitating tb country. Says f lay I for Ceart Bill. Senator Burkett received a tetter today, from a prominent attorney of Clay Ootey. stating that the revolutions purported h htve been adopted at Hasting iceotly. against th federal court bill, are mlled Ing. In that they represent that rpresentav tne were present from Clay county, whsu In fart. thfr wer nnn CnnlinnlNv Ih, 1 Utter says: 'The Btemhers of th bar . ,a ,,,., ,,, !
