A monument estimated to cost $100,- 000 will be erected at Montreal iu joint commemoration of the fact that in 1899 Canada for the first time took a hand in the wars of the British empire and of Lord Strathcona’s patriotism in equipping at his own expense a force of rough riders for service in South Africa. Separate memorials had been planned, but it was deemed expedient to unite them. Santiago de Cuba has a population of 43,000. In .January, 1898, there were 516 deaths, which makes an annual death rate of 137.6 per 1,000. In Jan¬ uary. 1899, under military rule, practi¬ cal sanitation was applied, and the deaths were 215, making a rate of 60. In January, 1900, the deaths numbered 120, at a rate of 33.48. Now, after two years of sanitary work, the January (1901) deaths numbered 80, a rate of 22.3. The new bridge over the Mississippi at St. Louis recently authorized by con¬ gress is to be finished in 1903 for the World’s fair. The first bridge over the river was begun in 1867, when St. Louis had a population of 225,000, but when the bridge was finished in 18T4 the population had risen to 325,000. When the second bridge was opened to traffic In 1890, the population was 451, 000, and it was evident that a third bridge was needed owing to the city’s greatly Increased business activity.

The number of suicides in Paris is very large at present, and the chief cause is thought to be the general re¬ trenchment following the exposition which has thrown many people out of work. Throughout France, however, suicide seems to have been increasing for some time. In the five years end¬ ed Jan. 1, 1901, tbe number of sui¬ cides was no less than 27,000. There is in Paris a hotel which has 4,000 employees. The smallest kettle In its kitchen contains 100 quarts and the largest 500. Blach of 50 roasting pans is big enough for 300 cutlets. Each dish for baking potatoes holds 225 pounds. When omelets are on the bill of fare, 7.800 eggs are used at once. For cooking alone 60 cooks and 100 as¬ sistants are always at the ranges. At Guilford, England, the quaint cus- tom of throwing dice for the “maid’s money” was observed recently. A sum was imested by the mayor of the bor ougb In the seventeenth century from which 12 guineas are given annually t0 , servaIlt gir , of good repute who has bcen in the same service for over tw0 years. There were two applicants, The pi -i 2 e was won by Marti;-. Shin- gler. who threw seven. The same dice box has been used for 00 years. After careful and patient investiga- tion the historical committee of the So- ciety of California Pioneers has learn- that Jan. 24. 1S4S. was the exact date of the discovery of gold In (all- fornia by James W. Marshall. ihe gold was fii'st found in the rock^ bed 0 f the tailrace of the Sutler sawmill at Golona. on the south fork of the Arneri- ca n river. Marshall himself made three or four different statements of the date, The committee was unanimous In it- decision. 'cf2? mr* >3 ■59 M - -zk* M * *i.

Its Buildings Present a Valuable Lesion In Architecture; Its Exhib¬ its Are a Materialized Encjelope- din—Educational Amusements. The true function of an exposition is education. The purpose and the end of all its ministrations should be the development and the ripening of each soul which comes within the scope of its influence.

PEABODY, (Superintendent of Liberal Arts, Pan-American Exposition.] woman, gentle or simple, each visitor should gain and should be conscious of gaining an enlarged appreciation, sub jeetively of himself as a living and sentient being and objectively of the world as bis sphere of living and know¬ ing, a realm fuller of sweetness and light. His respirations should be quick¬ er, his inspirations deeper and Ids as- piratlons loftier and nobler. To this end the Exposition speaks to its visitors with three voices—through its architecture, its exhibits, its amuse me*nts The Pan - American • Exposition will address its expected throngs in all these voices. In Its architecture must be Included the whole external equipment — its buildings in their artistic and symmet- their decoration*, breathing afresh the genius of the Spaniard and the Moor in graceful forms and gorgeous colorings; the landscape effects, blending the har monies of forest and lake, of fountain and tower, of cascade and castle and culmioating spire-of all that is lovely in nature with all that is refined and ennobling in art. Here, as at Chicago, the architect holds high carnival. If at the Columbian exposition we found the chaste purity of the lily in a presenta tion “unequaled since the days of Phid las and lYasiteles.” the fairies who join hands in the Pan-American clothe themselves with the chaste hues of Titian and of Murillo, unequaied since the days of Venice and of the Alham- bra. Another dream of beauty will hang in the eastern skv, paralleling the visions of delight that linger on the western, horizon Who can doubt the educative effect of these architectural lessons withiu the hearts of the American people? It is. however not enough to have evoked, like a mirage floating ovei tie plains, these phantasmagonal delights which fill our lives with joy and our memories with dreams. The president of the French republic in the decree which laid the foundation of the expo- sition of 1900 declared the purpose of that great enterprise to be “a presents- tion of the works of art and of nidus- trial and agricultural products -an as- semblage of exhibits That is without doubt tbe central, the formativeidea of the Pan-American Exposition. Without exhibits taere can he no position. Each new and well arrangC’d ex]>osi* tion is a new edition of a world's en- cyclopedia constructed by a scientific an d exhaustive arrangement of ma- tertal thirds. It is also a landmark, a milestone in the history of the world’s putgress and t-^e eiop*Leii«. o. ui.iu* kind. No one may expect, no one should desire, to read through from first to last the marvels presented in a universal exposition. .Vs well expect to memorize the Library of Congress or i.r the British Mus mm. But, were the exposition or the library truly uni¬ versal. every man should find therein tlm latest utterance which the world can give upon any subject within the scope ol human inquiry. I nless this b*» the fact the exposition is in some degree deficient in the tulfilling of its whole duty. Its duty may be express* ed, less exhaustively, perhaps, but with more practical truth, thus: It is a place not in which anybody will learn all it cam offer, but In which anybody may enlarge the scope of his informa- tion. IIow far the Pan-American Ex- position can realize lb’s criterion of completeness and of excellence will depend upon Lie area of space at its disposal and the skill of its officers in the management of that space. It looks now ar. if it will become not an encyclopedia of all knowledge, but an edition de luxe of the most excellent selections. In this phase of the Exposition will be found its most instructs e value, Whether it will also be the most edit- cative will depend upon the individual who is the recipient. The Exposition has a third phase, rendering another clement of education through its power of amusement. Amid the whirl of sounds and scenes in the exhibit departments mind and body ac¬ quire intense fatigue which craves rest. The toil of simple observation becomes wearisome, Music becomes a restful solace. The magician’s wand lends new life to tired limbs. There was some froth in the Chicago Midway. But regarding the Midway after the lapse of seven years one is convinced that out of it came more enduring and practical information and education than there was of mere ephemeral foam. Years of travel leading to some of the remotest quarters of the earth would have been required to give even the casual observer so much insight into the manners, customs and conduct of peoples differing from us in race, color, religion and habits of life and thought as might have been gathered in a single jourm y up and down the purlieus of the Midway. An excellent condition of the Midway was its con¬ centration. While it was of the expo¬ sition, it was v holly by itself. Some things shown illustrated the processes of important business methods, like the making of glass or of lace, the culture of ostriches, the work of the diver in the depths of the sea. Some showed r «— ■>; « lar,,ey - ‘ T V,enna a “ d °f f" <'onstontinople. 1 ” 1 bilantj li-.e Some t je were trees wholly 1 > o <■«»•»• " :t!l f, '»- r, '^ e ■>»« repeated at the im-American. hut others ot,natty m- Iv< ‘ < y‘ u al, ' V " !,(wstin S- w ‘ ,lally wdt , be shown. , Above all. around all, will be display¬ ed the effects of scientific inanifesta- (Ions, particularly of electricity, with such exuberance of force and such va- f _ pflw lho " ' A t !ls .' v rkl . hos " heretofore seen, , fho m picture may not be overdrawn rhe most marvelous anticipation will be realized.

Eight greets will diverge from this objective point, each representing a distinctive local section of the orient. A street In Constantinople will be thoroughly Turkish, even to the vagabond dogs. Morocco will be represented by a street which will illustrate the life and habits of the Moors. Algerian life will rece f V e attention, and a street will be borrowed from Algiers for the pur- pose. Typical Illustrations in a like manner will be taken from Egypt, Tunis, Persia, Tripoli and Turkey in Asia. While looking through these sections visitors could easily imagine themselves in the midst of the ancient city the counterpart of which they are visiting, A Bedouin Arab encampment will lend variety, and Sahara Desert no¬ mads will live In their interesting char- acteristic way. Natives from all coun¬ tries will live on the grounds with their camels and different domestic oriental animals, cabins, tents and huts. Res¬ taurants, tea houses, shops and fruit stands for the sale of oriental goods of great variety will be provided. The Beautiful Orient is under the same management as the Streets of Cairo, which was so popular at the World’s Fair, though it will be three times as large. About 300 orientals will be em¬ ployed in different ways with this at¬ traction, a conglomerate eastern city with distinct local features—a history in a nutshell. Lighting; the Exponttion. When people read that over 300.006 incandescent lamps will be used to il¬ luminate the grounds of the Pan-Amer¬ ican Exposition, few will stop to con¬ sider that electric lighting lias made About all its growth during the last 2'* years. In 1881 an incandescent, light machine that would supply 250 lamps was considered wonderful. Meet of American Wheelmen. At the annual meeting of the Nation¬ al Assembly of the League of Ameri¬ can Wheelmen held recently in Phila¬ delphia the invitation of Mayor Diehl to hold the annual summer meet of the League in Buffalo was accepted unani¬ mously. This action on tbe part of the gov¬ erning body of the L. A. W. meets with the hearty approval of the entire membership of that organization, For this reason the biggest meet in the tiistory of tbe League will be that held in Buffalo during the week com¬ mencing Aug. 12. Aside from the attractions of the L. A W. meet there are many induce¬ ments which will cause cyclists to visit Buffalo at that time, among others the central location of the city, within easy touring distance of all the principal cities of the Eastern aDd Middle States and Canada, the cheap railroad fares, the desire on the part of all wheelmen to visit the Pan-American Exposition and Niagara Falls and the fact that a week of International cycle racing is to be given on the specially constructed quarter mile track in tbe maKnlfl( . ent sstadinm on tbe Exposition ground*, It is believed that there will be not less than 10,000 visiting wheelmen in Buffalo during the week of the meet.
