Marriage, under French ‘Ss H. D. Sedgwick in Atlantic, is a part- nership, in which such matters as character, tastes, education, birth and property are to be considered; con- tracting families scrutinize the pro- posed bride and groom as if coming up for admittance into a club. They look at our custom of marrying for love with amazement, as we should look at a grocer’s cart that started on its rounds at 30 miles an hour, Our system confines its view to the Tom:.ntic dreams of youth, and re gards matrimony rather as a holiday cruise than a voyage of life.

Direct proof of this is furnished by the re- port showing the operations of the government telegraph system in the territory. Receipts during the last few months have ranged from 50 to 100 per cent. more than last year, and the facilities are so inadequate that additions are imperatively needed. The system includes more than 3,000 miles of cable and land lines, supple- mented by wireless apparatus which bridges a gap of more than a hundred miles. The lines are being extended in various directions, and before a great while will form a _ network which will bring all the habitable portions of the “Seward purchase” into touch with the rest of the world. City, B in accot The explosion of a bomb in St. Peter's at Rome is another illustra- i tion of the wicked insanity of anar- chists. Fortunately, the bomb was poorly made and killed no one. The only damage done was to women and children hufled and frightened by the stampede, It is usually those who could not be offensive even to an anarchist that suffer from the anar- chist’s murderous work. Thomas Turner, a wealthy English manufacturer, has come to America for the one hundred and nineteenth time, and will spend the winter with relatives in Chelsea, Mass. His first trip over was made in 1861. He says the longest time required for any trip he has made was 17 days, and he has crossed in five days and 15 hours.

According to Sir Lauder Rrunton, writing in the Lancet, the average length of life has rapidly become greg “There has been a contin- uous in the expectation of | life from a little under 40 years in 1854 to a trifle less than 48 years in 1900.” A gain of eight years in half a century appears tremendous, but the figures could be, of course, more significant still if we applied the com- parison to two periods separated by several centuries. Here is a rather intangible, but certainly important element, that should enter into all our attempts at formulating historical perspectives. However unconscious the average mediaeval man may have been of what his worth as an insur- ance risk was at any particular time, his acts and thoughts must have been profoundly influenced by the fact that he had on an average 15 years less to live than his successor of the nine- teenth centry, says New York Post. The violence of primitive civilizAtion may be due to the ‘instinctive desire for getting as much satisfaction as possible out of a brief existence. Pos- sibly, we do not live longer in the twentieth century because we fight less; but we quarrel less because we live longer. Leisure is necessary for altruism, Just so people step on each other's toes and scowl during the half-hour's expiation in the subway, but are polite and form lasting friend- ships on the commuter’s train to and from New Brunswick. increa English Duke's Patriotism. The British nobleman responds to the demands of imperial patriotism when they are called to his attention. The duke of Westminster is the latest of them to use his immense wealth in assisting to make the distant pos- sessions of the empire British in fact as well as in name. Two or three years ago his interest in South Africa was aroused by persons who thought that more Englishmen ought to be at- tracted to that part.of the world. The duke bought 19,000 acres of land in the Orange River Colony, built 18 farmhouses and the necessary farm buildings upon it, erected school- houses and other publi buildings, and sent out all the machinery and tools needed to till the land and to prepare the consumption, FKighteen families have been put in the houses, and are now cultivating the soil and attempting to establish a center of British influence and the nucleus of a large Lvitish settlement. If the enterprise proves successful the duke does not expect to net more than two per cent. interest on his in-| vestment, But when the Orange Riv-| er Colony is thickly settled the new: district of Westminster—it is named after the duke—will yield large re, turns to future dukes. crops for The Universal Language. An interesting Canadian writer has been looking up the matter and finds that Engl is coming into such wide use that before long our tongue may be regarded as a world language. Certainly the figures he gives are suggestive. Summarized, they show that from 1800 to 1900 the number of persons speaking English increased from 20,000,000 to 135,000,000, or 575 per cent.; French, from 34,000,000 to 48,000,000, or 41 per cent.; German, from 35,000,000 to 70,000,000, or 100 per cent.; Russian, from 30,000,000 to 90,000,000, or 200 per cent.; Spanish, from 30,000,000 to 45,000,000, or 60 per cent.; Italian, from 18,000,000 to 32,000,000, or 77 per cent., and Portu- guese, from 8,000,000 to 13,000,000, or 62 per cent. The absolute accuracy of these figures may be open to some question, but there is no doubt as to the remarkable gain in the English- speaking population of the earth. And the United States furnishes the larger proportion. The report of the librarian of con- gress shows that there has been a big addition this year to the books in the institution of which he has - charge. The total number of volumes in the congressional library is 1,379,244. This makes the library the fourth largest in the world. The only collec- tions surpassing that at Washington are those of the Bibliotheque Na- tionale at Paris, the British Museum at London and the Imperial Library at St. Petersburg, which rank in the order named. At:the rate the con- gressional library is growing it will soon take first place, as regards the number of books on its catalogue. Scholars are inclined to scout the idea that an entirely new language has been discovered in Africa. Per- haps, says Washington Herald, the al- leged discoverer simply ran afoul of a baseball extra somewhere in the dark continent. [ae A German newspaper says the Americans are born humorists.
