While the water mains are being re- paired, the reservoirs filled and the supply temporarily cut off from private houses, the artesian wells of the city are to a certain extent relieving the water famine. S Underground springs have been broathéd by the earthquake and the supply, despite the heavy drain, ap- pears to be inexhaustible.

The return: are for the year 1901, and nearly five years have been required to collect| them and put them into anything like intelligible shape. According to the official figures, King Edward has in Asia more than 300,000,000 of subjects, on the American continent 7,500,000, in Africa about 43,000,000, in Australia | more than 6,000,000, and in Europe jmore than 42,000,000. Classifying tthem broadly by religions, there are 208,000,000 of Hindus, 94,000,000 of Mohammedans, 58,000,000 of Chris- | tians, 12,000,000 of Buddhists, and 23, 000,000 of various bagan or non-Chris- tian religions. It should be added that |this last item represents a very wide | generalization, since it contains Par- |sees, Sikhs, Jains, Jews, and Confu- cians, as well as very primitive forms | of superstition. Every attempt in the| | United Kingdom to add a column for | | religions to the census returns has | been defeated up to the present time. | For some reason or other the native | Britisher objects, seemingly, to declar- | ing the faith that s in him for pur-| poses of classification.

A practical joker of New York city tells this story upon himself, and de- clares that the experience cured him of his bad habits. ‘‘On my arrival at San Francisco, as a joke I sent to a| friend of mine at home, well known for 1 his aversion to spending money, a tele- | gram, with charges to collect, reading, ‘I am perfectly well.” The information evidently was gratifying to him, for |about a” week after sending the tele- gram an express package was delivered {at my room, on which I paid $4 for| | charges.
