PRICE OF REFINED SUGAR HAS ADVANCED NEW YORK, May 3—The American Sugar Refining Company to-day advanced the price of all refined sugars sold by it one-eighth of a cent per pound. Standard granulated was placed at 5% cents, against 5 cents vesterday and 5% cents a month ago. The move was quickly fol- lowed by all the independent refineries. The current advance was really begun in London, where refined sugar prices have been hardening for some days. It was for by the decided firmness in raw sugar, which cut down decidedly the mar- gin of refiners’ profits. Impofts of raw sugar into the United States during March increased 102,000,000 pounds over March, 1598, and in the nine months since last June the increase was fully a thousand million pounds.

REDDING, May 3.—The second day of the race meeting here proved as interest- ing as the first; the attendance was as large and the betting as heavy. The only bad feature in the programme was the delay in starting, especially in the first race. In the second heat of that event it was necessary to give the horses a standing start after a half-hour's jock- eying. Many are still of the opinion that Black Bess, who was distanced in the third race, could beat her opponent with another trial. Black Bess' rider fell off just after the start because of his stir- ru_F breaking. he weather was cloudy and cool, mak- ing an ideal day for racing.

STANFOD UNIVERSITY, May 3. Dr. C. C. Closson of Harvard, a gradu- | ate in sociology, is at present at Stan- | ford University engaged in measuring the heads of students in the gymnasium | to determine certain questions of heredity. He takes the length and | breadth of the skull and asks questions concerning the occupation, character, | health and movements of the student’s ancestry, school of scientists who are studying anthropology, with a particular view to the effect of the shape of the human | head on race movements and develop- | ments. | Interest in the matter originated after the report of a commission or- under the direction of Lapouge, to ob- - | tain a scientific description of the popu- lation. The scientists found there was a difference hetween the shape of the | heads of the urban and rural popula- tion. ' The large majority of the latter were of a broad headed or Alpine type, | while the former were found to be long | or narrow .eaded. As the latter type, | which is now called the North Euro- { pean type, is the more energetic, ne vous and migratory, the theory | advanced that this difference in race | psychology might account for the | movements of men and natio The Baden commission examined 2 | 000 persons. It found that the mass of the upper class were of the long-headed | type, and also that the most of the | persons who moved from the country into the city possessed the same head characteristics. arrow-headed type had smaller fam- | ilies and the tendency was for the type to decrease. Further investigation re- vealed that this type of man dwelt chiefly in the north of Europe, and that it has taken more than its share in the migratory movements to the United States. As the examinations extended over the south of Germany it was di | covered that the broad-headed type predominated, both there and in | France. The results seemed to go to prove a nascent selection in society, which has a great soclological interest, and a number of eminent scientists de- termined to secure further data. Dr. Callignon investigated in France, and others in Austria and Switzerland. They even went so far as to seek in- formation in the catacombs, and it is now alleged by them that the great movements in Roman and French hi tory can be traced to these differenc in skull formation. America being a new country, built up principally by emigrations from Europe, the men interested in the study are attempting to verify the findings of the Baden commission by experi- ments in the United States. It is con- tended that where the broad-headed type have emigrated they will be found principally in the East, while the long-headed type pushed on, and are primarily responsible for the settle- ment of the West. It was thought that a representative test could be made easiest by the examinations of college students and the members of large so- cieties or clubs. Dr. Sasgent of Har- vard has had examinations made in the gymnasium there and Dr. Ripley at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology French and Swiss inhabitants of Los Angeles, and it was discovered that the large majority of them belonged to the long-headed type. Although the reports of the American examinations have not been published, it is said that every test so far made has strengthened the the- ories. If this extensive study of stu- dents in the East and West is satis- factory the examinations will no longer have to be made by individuals upon their own responsibility, but the mat- ter will become of sufficient importance to be taken up by colleges and scientific societles.
