THE MORNING OKEGONIAN. TUESDAY, JULY 29, 1902. DISORDER IN EUROPE Rioting in France, Italy and Austria. CLERICAL 'TROUBLES IN PARIS 3Iany Persons Injured and Hundreds Arretted an a Result of the Street Disturbances Galli- clan Uprising:. PARIS, July 2S. Many persons' injured. 10 of them seriously, and hundreds arrest ed, are the net results of the street dis turbances yesterday, brought about by the closing of unauthorized religious schools. There were great crowds on the boule vards throughout the evening, In expecta tion of further rioting. A large procession of students, shouting and singing, were dispersed by. the police, and attempted red-flag demonstrations at the Strasburg statue also were broken up. Quiet was restored at midnight. The religious societies in more than. 60 departments have voluntarily dissolved without any intervention by the' authori ties. Francois Coppee, the author, and M. Le rolle, a Nationalist Deputy, who were ar retted last week in connection with, the anti-clerical rioting, addressed a. great meeting which was held in a riding school in the Rue d'Enghlen tonight to protest against the government's action In the matter of closing of the unauthorized con gregatlonallsts. M. Coppee, in a vigorous denunciation of the government, made re marks hostile to President Loubet. After receiving a demonstration, a counter-demonstration to M. Coppee occurred, but the police were able to maintain order. Gallcian Strike Becomes Serious. LEMBURG. Gallcla. Austria, July 28. The strike in East Gallcla of over 100,000 agricultural laborers, most of them, Rus sians, and which developed into a rising against the landed proprietors of the dis trict, is becoming more serious.

A similar outbreak occurred at Padua. DEWET IX CAPE TOWN. Upsets Preparations Made for His Reception. CAPE TOWN, July 23. General Dewet proved that he could evade friends as euccessfully as he did enemies, by arriv ing here unexpectedly this afternoon, up setting all the elaborate preparations pre pared for his reception. He strolled through the streets, casually nodding to acquaintances and occasionally to a for mer opponent. Arrangements were quick ly made by Afrikanders to entertain the famous leader tonight at a semlprivate dinner, tickets fir which already stand at 5 guineas ($26 25) premium. A striking contrast to Dewet's return WE the scene Sunday, when General Botha and General Delarey attended church. The building was packed, mainly with women, and, the service was scarcely concluded when their Cape Town admir ers stormed the pew in jsvhlch the Gen erals sat. With difficulty they retreated to the vestry. The congregation followed, and Generals Botha and Delarey were lift ed to the vestry table. The pastor of the church warmly remonstrated, where upon a number of those present seized the Generals and carried them to carriages, where another demonstration ensued. COLOMAIi FEDERATION. Speeches by Visiting; Premiers at Glasgroyr. GLASGOW, July 28. Premier Seddon, of New Zealand, in a speech here today, said the Colonies had already proved that they love the motherland by sending their Bons to fight in South Africa. They wished to go further and give the mother country trade preference over other nations, but too much attention was paid to what con tinental nations might think. What the colonic and Great Britain should do was to Join In common cause to meet Ameri can competition. Should this be done the result need not be feared, said Mr. Seddon, because the British workmen and manu facturers were unequaled in the whole world. All the Colonial Premiers with the ex ception of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the Prime Minister of Canada, who is In London, were given a great ovation here today. Mr. Barton. Prime 'Minister of the Com monwealth of Australia, in one of the many speeches he delivered In the course of the day. warned his hearers that the Brit ish Empire was large enough and that Britons now ought to look to consolida tion rather than to acquisition. George W. Ross. Premier of Ontario, declared in a speech that the war in South Africa was prolonged to the extent that It had been because there had been so few colo nial troops in the field. Yerkes Explains His Plans. LONDON, July 28. The . Parliamentary committee dealing with Charles T. Yerkes' proposed tube transportation syfctem for Londan aired the fact that only 2.000,000 out of 5.000,000 of the new district road is held In America. Sir LewIs'McIvor, chairman of the com mittee, said he did not care where the money came from so long a; It was good money. Mr. Yerkes testified that It was his Intention to give the British workmen as much of the electrification work as possible and to buy all mater ials In England, except the iron-work, Rhich would come from Germany. He believed two-pence should be the uni versal underground fare for the me tropolis. Catholic School Question in Spain. MADRID. July 28. Premier Sagasti states that the negotiations with the Vatican regarding the schools conducted by the religious asoclatlons are progress ing very slowly and that If they are not finished by October, the Government will take other steps. Spain, following the example of the United States, cannot yield on the religious question, slid Senor Sagasta. The Premier denied the rumors' that Spain is allying herself with other powers and declared that any al liance would be burdensome. Lord Hope's Delits. LONDON. July 28.

Irish Nationalist, moved a protest against the appointment of Lord Alverstone, Lord Chief Justice of England, and Sir John BlnghamJudge of the King's Bench division of the High Court of Justice, who, together with Major-General Sir John Ardagh, recently agent ofk the gov ernment on the South African Claims Commission, were appointed last week a royal commission to proceed to South Af rica, August 9, and inquire Into the sen tences imposed by tho military courts, with the view of ascertaining whether it is expedient that such sentences or fines be remitted or reduced. Mr. MacNelll maintained that the attitude of Lord Al verstone and Sir John Bingham toward the Jameson raid commission utterly un fitted them to fulfill their present duties. Mr. Brodrick, the "War Secretary, defend ed the selection of Lord Alverstone, and Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, the Lib eral leader in the House, supported the government Mr. MacNelll's motion was defeated by 210 votes to 64. "Will Enlarge Colonial Councils. LONDON, July 28. A South African blue book, which has Just been Issued, shows that Joseph Chamberlain, the Colonial Secretary, consented to the pro posal made by Lord Milncr, British High Commissioner in South Africa, to take advantage of the good feeling prevailing between the Dutch and the British, to make immediate announcement that tho legislative councils of the new colonies, the Transvaal and the Orange River, shall be enlarged by the addition of non-ofllclal members, and shall meet as early as pos sible, the month of September being sug gested for this purpose.

The paper declares the yield will be at least 1S2.000.000 hectoliters, and that tho apprehension hitherto felt, owing to the lateness of the crop, has been dissipated by the advent of fine weather. Only 12S, 000,000 hectoliters of wheat are required for French consumption, and there will, therefore, be no necessity for importa tions. Damages Against McHugh. BELFAST, July 28. William B.

BERLIN, July 28. Ernest Ruhmer. an electrical inventor, succeeded Saturday evening In telephoning seven kilometers by his wireless methods. The speaking voice was perfectly audible continuously during the experiment. Ruhmer, who hitherto has used, a searchlight 33 centi meters in diameter, intends to construct another between 100 and 200 centimeters, expecting to speak 40 kilometers, which would be a distance sufficient to cover a modern city. Itis affirmed, however, that the apparatus is too large and expensive and too delicate to be practicable com mercially, but it will be highly useful to warships In transmitting orders at sea. Herr Ruhmers Invention acts on tho prin ciple of the transformation of light waves to sound waves by using a searchlight and a microphone. 3IACEDOXIAX C03IMITTEE.

System, of Determining Relative Merit of Tomes. New York Tribune. A. E. Bostwick, chief of the circulating department of the New York Free Public Library, believes that one of the future steps In the co-ordination of library work in America will be a central bureau for the appraisal of literature, particularly new books, for ihs benefit of llhrnrwuis la general perhaps all the librarians of the country, perhaps only those of a certain section, perhaps of certain libraries suo scrlblng to the fund for maintenance. "At the State Library School at Al bany," said Mr. Bostwick, "they have tho students read a large number of books Blanks are then provided, and the stu dents fill them out, the answers, when complete, covering just those points which the librarian desires to know. They set down no matters of opinion, but only mat ters of fact. This is to give the pupils practice In estimating the value of books for library purposes, taking account of the points that the librarian should be Informed upon before buying. I can see In this the germ of something t greater, a central bureau, where competent per sons will prepare estimates of books to be sent out to librarians. "It is manifestly Impossible for the li brarian to read all the books that are published. Different employes about tho library may read them, but the result Is haphazard. And yet every book should be read from beginning to end before It Is placed on the shelves. A librarian may glance It hastily through, or read several chapters carefully, and pronounce tho book suitable, when, as a matter of fact, he has missed something, that Is very ob jectionable Indeed. This brings one to the first point, which should be covered In the estimate of the book. The appraiser should state whether or not there are any scenes, any features, discussions or lan guage in the book which render It un fit for the shelve of a public library. If there are the book must be excluded, even though, from a literary point of view, the book may be a great one, and even though It may appeal to people of cultivated tastes and high character. But in a public library there must be nothing which would provoke criticism as unsuit able for young .folk. "A very .Important point for the ap praiser to pass oipon would be the per sonality of the author as to fitness and previous preparation for his work. If there is a new book on volcanoes we want to know whether the author got his Informa tion from volcanoes or from the encyclO' pedia.. If personal Investigations have made him an authority on the subject, we would buy the book, even though It were badly written, and otherwise a poor specimen of a book. Of course, this would apply generally to books other than nov els. Still, there "might be a novel which would not amount to much as a story, but would present delightful pictures of life in Japan, or India, for Instance. If we know the author had lived In those coun tries and was Informed upon those sub jects, it would render the book valuable for that reason alone.' "Ap to style, that Is largely a matter of opfnlon, and as such would not be a proper subject for appraisement. But il the writer were guilty of grammatical er rors, or equally flagrant sins, that would be a matter of fact. "Novels should be classified In the ap praisement as religious, sociological, his torical, and so on. If there were a par ticular demand for stories on the rela tion of labor and capital, for Instance, we might buy a ne- one, even If it were not so very well written. The Interest of the matter to the reading public would compensate for the lack of style. "This plan would save librarians a lot of uncertainty and labor, and occasional mistakes. The question then would be re duced to one of literary values. And as to that, I don't think any hard fast rules can be made. As to the exclusion of a new book for three years after Its publication, that would have deprived the libraries of three years' reading of 'David Harum' or 'When Knighthood Was in Flower.' And, while ihose books have lived three years, their final position in literature Is no more fixed today than It was three years ago. Their position Is practically the same that It was when they came out. Librarians feel that many books are being put out In whlcji the writers are not masters of their weapons the English Is not fiwt.class "Is there anything first class compared to the standard authors?

O - i ers today who can use the English lan guage Just as well as any novelist has ever done. The matter of their books may not be great enough to make them live, but the style Is first class. ".Broadly speaking. It Is only these books, written In thoroughly good, pure English, which should be put In the li brary. But to pass- upon all the new books with this In view Is a matter re quiring much time and critical Judgment. It can't be done by rule. Thore are cer tain authors whom wc know It Is safe to buy without reading. Everything writ ten by Mr. Howells, Mr. James, Mr. Cablo and other authors who have demonstrat ed that they always produce works of a certain grade Is purchased. A new author has got to prove h!s right to be placed on that honorably list. Over at the Brooklyn library they have made a rule not to buv tho flrsf honk of nn niifhnr until the expiration of a year. I wouldn't do that. I do not believe any Ironclad rule can be profitably made with relation to style. Each book must have Its In dividual Judgment. But the other points I have mentioned -could be profitably ap praised. The points the librarian wants to know, about a new book are either not coveredat all In the- book reviews, or he has to wade through columns to get them." To Mnkc the Bible Popular. Chicago Chronicle. In the proposed action of a newspaper published at Pana, 111., there Is a sugges tion to the home mission bodies of this country. The Pana Journalist purposes to print the Bible as a serial. Why should not the missionary bodies make arrangements to have the same thing done by other news papers, thus bringing the Scriptures to the dally attention of hundreds of thou sands of people who have not looked Into a Bible since their Sunday school days. There ore some people foolish enough to sneer at the Bible. Such people are the victims of their religious or nonre llglous prejudices. For whatever mav be thought of the claims to divine inspira tion made for the book, no one who reads It can deny that it commands a place among the highest types of English litera ture. "The English Bible." said Thomas Bab ington Macaulay. "Is a book which, if everything else In our language should perish, would alone suffice to 5how tho whole extent of Its beauty nnd power." The missionary people could do no greater service to literature as well as to religion than by making the Bible a popu lar rather than nn esoteric book. The Pana man has pointed out the way. FAHRENHEIT'S AD APTA TION Of n Scientific Invention of Sir Isaac Xexvton. New Orleans Times-Democrat. Sir Samuel Wilks, writing to Knowledge, gives the history of the origin of Fahren heit's thermometer, which Is generally used In this country. It was really In vented by Sir Isaac Xewton. and the starting point of his scale was the heat of the human body. Newton's paper Is to be found In the "Philosophical Transac tions" for the year 1701. He describes his Instrument as a glass tube filled with linseed oil, and to It he attached a scale to measure the degree of heat of the liquid into which he plunged It. His lowest point Was that of freezing, as his highest was that of boiling water. He chose for the starting .point on his scale the heat of the human body, and this he called by the round number 12, the duodecimal system being then In use that Is. he divided the space between the freezing point and the temperature of the body Into 12 parts. He further stated that the boiling point would be about SO, p It was nearly three times that of the human, body.

He also did more, for, find ing he could obtain lower temperatures than freezing, and notably that of Ice and salt mixed together, he took this for his starting point. It was from this point ho began to count 21 degrfes up to body heat. This made, by his measurements. 8 the point for freezing. Boiling point he mide 53. It then became zero, freezing 8, body heat 24 and boiling water 53. This was really the same as Newton's, only the scale started lower and the numbers were doubled. Later on. finding that he could measure Increments of heat more minutely, Fahrenheit divided each degree Into four parts. It will now be seen that If the numbers Just mentioned are multi plied by four we have the thermometer which is now In use. He Got n Convict Hair Cnt. Chicago Post. It was a misunderstanding, but Alder man Henry Fick. of the Ninth Ward, got-! the worst of It. Fick went Into a Ghetto barber shop, cat In a chair and requested the knight of the brush and razor to remove his hirsute adornment. "Want It all oft?" asked the barber. "Yes, and close, too," answered the Al derman. Fick closed his eyre and fell asleep. , When he awoke the Alderman leaped from the chair and created a demonstration. ' The barber had cut his hair so close that ' the Alderman's scalp shone like a mirror. "For the land's sake, man, what do j you mean by disfiguring me like this?" , demanded the angry Alderman. ! "Why. you told me to cut It close, didn't you?" asked the frightened barber. "I never told you to cut" my hair at all." answered Fick. "I told you to give me a shave and a close one. but never said anything about a hair cut." Sen Monster Ik Dead. NEW YORK. July 2S.
