China's Late Minister, Wu Ting- Fang, Gives His Impressions. speaks la High Terana of ta stater- prlae and Adaptability of taa wrae Amerlcam and Hla Aeeompllaameinta. American! are known, in wh&tevei quarter of the jyorld chance hap pens to throw them, by their mar velous self-reliance and independence A A l jx ijpicm American is never at a loss what to do with himself, writes Wu ring-Fang in Success. If, by some enchantment he were whisked away over night and set down in the middle of Timbuctoo, he would, doubtless, when he should awake the next morning, be astonished, but be fore luncheon he would be busily en gaged in some business enterprise, so readily does he adapt himself to cir cumstances. In every instance he knows how to take care of himself, but perhaps the real secret of his success is that he knows how to make the most of his opportunities. An American student usually real izes that education is the stepping- stone to achievement. He studies with the expectation of fitting him self for the profession or occupation he is ultimately to enter. He makes the most of himself as a student, that he may be able to make the most of himself in his chosen career All through his course of study this idea is instilled into his mind, and the consequence is that he leaves his college or university well prepared to enter upon life's activities. He is sure of himself. I may also add that the schools of the United States, both public and collegiate, are the crown ing glory of this young and great re public. No words can bestow upon them too high praise. No estimate can be put upon the good which they are accomplishing in training young women as well as young men for fu ture usefulness. Systematic educa tion is reaching its highest form in this country. Its results are so prac tical that the country cannot help but advance. The intelligence of the average American is worthy of note. This, I take it, is due in large measure not only to the excellent schools, but also to the innumerable newspapers and other publications. I have found, In all parts of the country, that in every town of any size there is pub lished a daily paper, and that the metropolitan publications circulate in the homes of the most remote cor ners of the land. The abilities to seize his opportu nities, which is characteristic of the American, is seen in the business en terprises of the country. Its indus trial machinery is adjusted to the production of its wealth on a scale of unprecedented magnitude. This is a valuable condition. American brains and American capital are reaching out to control the markets vf the world, and, with good reason, tither nation are watching the ef forts with keen interest. China is but awnkening to its vast possibili ties, nnd nwr:' and more will she wel come the American merchant and American commerce within her bor ders. American enterprise is now building a railway from Hankow to Van ton. and, no doubt, other roads will soon be building. China's rivers and harbors are to be improved, and there will be more and more demand for American steel, rails and other products. A remedy claimed by its inventor aa a&entirely new treatment for consump tion is attracting the attention of lung specialists at Berlin and the medical profession generally. It consists of the inhalation of vapor produced by heating a mixture of eucalyptus oil, sulphur and charcoal, and it is stated REMAINS TO BE PROVEN Governor Accuses Kelllher of Se curing- 100,000 Acres by i'raua.

A most extraordinary disease, ex tremely infectious and resembling smallpox among human beings, has broken out among the statues in the Kgyptian room of the National mu seum here, says an Athens (Greece) correspondent of the New York Times. A few days ago the distin euislied politician and archaeologist, Mr. Stephanos Skouloudes, noticed some strange gre?n marks on one of the bron.ie slat lies of the famous Egyptian collection presented to the museum in issi by Mr. Demetrios, of Alexandria. lie at once communi cated ! m dNc;:verr to the curator, who called in experts to examine the statue in question. They pronounced the marks to be due to an infectious complaint, to which hronze is liable, and which gradually spreads from the surface of the object affected to the inside, till the whole crumbles away into dust. The other bronze xtatues i the same room were then inspected, with the result that they w.ere all found to be more or les tainted with the disease, while fire of them had taken it in a most ag gravated form. These five are the statues of Anta, the goddess of war; of M.iout. wife aj Jupiter Amnion; of Isis, and two statues of Osiris, one of them of the greatest value. Worse that that, the infection has spread to the Mj'cenaean room, which con tains the results of the late Dr. Schliemann's excavations in 1S7. Secret terries operative will short ly arrive st Philadelphia to shadow Max Zeitler, an expert heialdic en graver. Not that Mr. Zeitler has done wrong, Dot ne is aoout to recut we great seal of the United Slates, and the government during this process employs a greater force of inspectors to keep an eye on the single workman than in the construction, of a $5,000,000 battleship. The firm to which the contract for the seal lias been let was compelled to name R.e engraver w.ien it bia ror the work. This exaction is required so tnat t!or neeefctari' protection may be afforded r.t the ;!es:gn which is ex pected fn.'iv nhi::gton in a few day for the ';(!: nee of the engraver. The new Fes) hN will be careful! v guarded. The pr-iMit seal has become so worn by years of constant use that the new one will be completed to replace it as oon as possible. ROBINS EARN THEIR CHERRIES Dsatror Iasat Pasts asa lava rat Mora Pratt That They Cava Poaalblr Co An orchardut at Fulton makes com plaint against the robins or "Jack rob ins" a he calls them. Me says they are nipping all the blossoms off his cherry tree. They just t, trip the trees, and the ground beneath them is white with blo:ju)s. lie says the wicked birds tear the hearts out of the blos soms and then bite the s-tems in two and let them fall, and fears that his sherry crop will be ruined, says the Portland Oregonian. A member of the Johu Burrouf;iis society win as been applied to fo; .information on this sub ject says the on. liardiot is mistaken; if the robins do cut otT any Llootsoms it is only defective ones, or such as have insects in them, cud that the birds are doing good instead of harm. He says he putt, up nests of boxes among his trees to enable birds of any kind, even sparrows, to make their homes on his grounds. He says that birds help themselves to a few cherries when ripe, but they sre welcome to them, as they have earned them by destroying insect peMs. It is hoped that this in formation will satisfy the orchardist. It is doubtless correct, for if robins were as destructive as he imagines there would king ago have ceased to be any cherries in Oregon, while the fsct is that the cherry crop is large almost every year, and of great value. The birds must not b condemned on false or mistaken testimony. Morrow County, Oregon. Morrow County is a new country , and like all other new countries, is awaiting development. Located iu the Columbia river valley, and ekirted on the South with a epur of the Bine moan twins", within the boundaries of Morrow oouuty is s territory 75 milt9 in length by 35 miles in width, and containing 1,313,280 aores of land. Formerly Gtockraising was the principal industry, but lat let ly the fertility of the land is bringing agrioilture to the front. Immense wheat crops are grown with iittle cultivation, the soil being mixed with a voloanic ash which ia very rich in wheat-producing qualities. The 1904 crop will aggregate 1,400,000 bushels, much of it from virgin soil. Morrow county has thousands of head of sheep, horses and cattle. The wool prcdoctien for 1904 was 2,500,000 pounds. Alfalfa and frnit growing are profitable industries, rapidly growingin importance. Tbe oonnty baa also a great ooal field, eoon to be developed.
