Shocking us are the statistics of mortality among pilgrims to Mecca recently Reported in the New York Sun from Tunis, where of nine thousand who set out hut half the number returned, the death rate of this year is but little greater than that of ordinary years. The health officials of Bombay and other Indian cities have for some time been collecting facts and statistics to show that India does not deserve the ill reputation it has of being “the endemic home of cholera," but that Arabia is the home of the plague, and they are preparing to make strenuous efforts to arouse the Arabian authorities and convince them of the fact, and to have them apply a remedy - Some of the statistics printed in the Bombay Gazette reveal a terrible state of af-

fairs.

According to the official returns of the health officer of Bombay, of nine-ty-one thousand pilgrims who left that city for Mecca during the past eight years only sixty thousand have come back. Thirty pilgrims in every hundred have perished in every year of that period, and very many of those who survived to return home have come back only to die of disease contracted on the pilgrimage. The facts adduced go to prove that the pilgrims do not carry disease with them from India. There is a rigid inspection at Bombay before embarkation, and every pilgrim is required to pass a | medical examination, to undergo a certain quarantining process, and to possess a certificate of good health. The mortality on the voyage from Bombay to Arabia is very small. It is after the pilgrims have entered the holy cities, and during the return, that the mortality is great. A record is kept by the British consul at Jeddah of the number of pilgrims arriving at and departing from that port, with such particulars as will insure general identification. The figures of this record fully corroborate those of the Bombay officials. An average estimate of a mortality of onethird among the Indian pilgrims in each year, when there is no general epidemic of cholera, is clearly established, and the belief is expressed, founded on such corrolsirative statistics as are obtainable, that fully onethird of all pilgrims to Mecca perish in every year. The Indian officials assert that the cholera plagues which periodically sweep around the world “have their origin in the filth of Mecca and Medina.” There is a great scarcity of water in these places, and the quality of the little obtainable is bad. The famous Holy Well at Mecca offers the most complete conditions for spreading disease. It ordinally contains but little water. One of the most essential devotions in the pilgrimage is to bathe in and drink of the water from this well, and its brink is always crowded with pilgrims, some drawing its water ■ md pouring it over their persons, >thcrs dipping it up in cups and gourds and drinking it. The water used for bathing runs directly back into the well, and thus diseases are directly spread. The authorities did for a time this year close up the well. Drainage in the city there is little or none, anil the most ordinary sanitary precautions are utterly disregarded by the choked crowds of pilgrims. Not alone cholera is thus bred and spread, but the holy cities are hotbeds of smallpox and other like terrible diseases. The same conditions are true of El Tor, Jeddah and Camaran, and the Indian health oflieials will, for the protection of its people as well as for the sake of the country's reputation, make strong endeavors to induce the authorities of the holy places of pilgrimage to take an interest in drainage and general sanitation; to have more scavengers even if they have to have fewer priests. They think that the western nations might profitably take an interest in the condition of things in Arabia, and the result of their investigations will be offered in the hope that steps will be taken to crush out the cholera plague in what they assume to prove is its real endemic home.

On* of the Chemical Compounds of an Average Voter Valued at 6118.300. An interobting exhibit at the national museum shows the chemical ingredients which go to make up the average man weighing 154 pounds, says the American Analyst. Divided up into his primary chemical elements the man is found to contain Iff pounds of oxy’gen—enough to take up, under ordinary atmospheric pressure, the space of a room 10 feet long, 10 feet wide and 10 feet high. His hotly also holds 15 pounds of hydrogen, which, under the same conditions, would occupy somewhat more than two such rooms as that described. To these must be added 3 pounds and 13 ounces of nitrogen. The carbon in the corpus of the individual referred to is represented by a foot cube of coal. It ought to be a diamond of the same size, !>ccause the stone is pure carbon, but the National museum has not such a one in its possession. A row of bottles contain the other elements going to make up the man. These arc 4 ounces of chlorine, ounces of fluorine, 8

The Experiment Which an Ohio Capitalist Will Try in Nebraska. A plan for securing farmer immigrants has just been put in operation in Nebraska by a wealthy Ohio manufacturer, and it is the understanding of tlie South that Gov. Northen, of Georgia, advocates a similar experiment in his state. Some time ago the Ohio man purchased 12,000 acres in Nebraska. In the center of this tract 160 acres are laid off for the village site, and in the center of this forty’ acres for a public park. Facing the park are the school, church or churches, public halls, stores, shops, etc. The remainder is cut up into 240 lots of about a half acre each for dwellings for the farmers, storekeepers, median ies and others who may seek a residence in the village. After providing for the village tlie rest of the 12,000 acres is divided into 150 farms of about eighty acres each, with roads so laid out as to give cadi farmer an open highway to the village. It is proposed to sell these farms on time, giving ample time to the purchasers to pay for them, and to assist in the building of tlie village by helping to build the sehoolhouses, churches and such other public buildings as may be desired. If this idea is carried out, there will he a village with 150 families of farmers, and perhaps fifty or more other families of storekeepers, mechanics and others, say a village of 200 families, or 1,000 people, which would make a con-

siderable place.

Gov. Northen suggests shat land owners form joint stock companies, purchase a central tract for the village# build a church, a schoolhouse, a store have a post office established, and then let those nearest the village site either build, or if practicable move their dwellings to the village stte, thus giving it a start. Then subdivide the large farms into small ones, and invite settlers to come, purchase and become reakkints of the vUlage.

years tlie inhabitants increased 34,000,000. Contrary to tlie condition of things among the western nations the town population is only Oil per cent, of the whole. The ancient Brahmanic religious belief still counts 211,000,000 adherents. The Buddhists number 7.000. 000. The followers of Mohammed count up 57,000,000. The ancieut pagan or native worshipers number 9.000. 000, and there are 90,000 who follow tiic faith of Zoroaster. The Christians number 2,250,000. The people of India are not long-lived. Of this immense multitude only 15,000.000 reach the age of 60. The illiterate comprise

274.000. 000 of the population.

One cause of the success of the British in governing India is found in tlie fact that Us different languages or dialects are spoken, though some of them arc doubtless very similar The differences of race, religion and language render a combination against the English rulers almost impracticable, in view of their judicious policy. The British management of tlie country, in construction of railroads and a system of irrigation by means of which famines are averted or ameliorated,tlio suppression of widow burning, infanticide and the protection of human life, especially of female and child life, has stimulated the increase of population to such a degree—more than 8,000,000 annually, that the limits of production of food are nearly reached. lu view of this last4act it is only a question of a short time when the surplus population of India will join the Chinese hordes in seeking new homes in other lauds, and a fresli source of embarrassment will confront tiie rulers of more civilized nations, since the newcomers are sure to be an-

tagonized by the laboring classes.

Tiie skilled toxicologist, writes U. Ogden Dorcmus in the Forum, reveals the presence of poisons, often when only faint traces exist, by removing them from their surroundings, with solvents, requiring hours, days and sometimes weeks for tlie separation; exciting them to form combinations with other elements, he causes them to appear in solid, liquid or gaseous conditions. Many of them he arrays in varied colors, or in crystalline shapes, seen distinctly by the achromatic or apochromatie lenses of the microscope. Others lie volatilizes in flame, and he views their incandescent vapors through the prisms of the spectroscope. Brilliantly tinted and sharply defined lines, in localities accurately noted, reveal tlie qxistAnce of metals so trilling in quantity that they elude measurement by tlie balance, with all its modern refinements, and so small that the human brain can scarce imprison the thought of their minuteness. To take one example: Slip pose tlie finger is wetted with a drop of saliva ami touched to a salt of lithium, and tlie adherent white powder is placed on the tongue and then swallowed. After the lapse of a few minutes, on drawing a clean platinum wire over tlie forehead or any part of the skin, then placing it with its traces of moisture In a Bunsen flame in front of Hie narrow slit of the spectroscope, an observer,, looking through the little telescope of tlie instrument, will see for a fraction of a second the brightoolored red and yellow lines characteristic of lithium.

Th» (Jucstlon of Their He«foration On* of ArtUtlc Expeillent-y. Every year or so it is rumored in Athens that we are going to send these stolen treasures back. England is tlie only nation in the world which has ever been known to surrender valuable territory unthreatened and simply on sentimental grounds, says Bickford Smith in "(ireece Under KingOeorge.” If England gave up the Ionian islands, they argue, worth several millions sterling, why should they not give back tlie marbles which, if put up to auction in lots, would hardly fetch a

million?

(.'apt. Trant, writing lu 1830, said that it was reported that the king of Bavaria, \yho was a great I’hilhellene, had expressed his intention of making Ids Glyptothek at Munich disgorge the Aiginetan marbles and restoring them to Greece. He rightly thought it problematical, and they are, of course, still at Munich. Oddly enough, the people who abuse us most for having robbed the Parthenon are not the Greeks but the French, who have done more of that kind of thing than any nation since the Romans. This occurred to Chateaubriand, who confessed to a certain amount of mild spoliation himself, and lie attempted to contrast our thefts with those of ids compatriots; ids first distinction that they did not pull down to take away is plausible, but will not bear examination. as the bare places they left behind them in Italy were quite as great eyesores, and the precious prey did not stand in so great need of protection; his second distinction, that in their case the glory of France required it, smells too much of vanity for us to have anything to do with it. The question of the restoration of the Elgin marbles is one of artistic expediency. Few Englishmen would maintain that we had a moral right to keep them longer than is necessary in the interests of art. The first question to he decided is whether they are more useful to the world in London or in Athens. If it be in doubt the original ownership of Athens should shift the balance of proving the superior advantages of London on to us; if it be admitted that Athens is tlie more suitable place for them, tlie question resolves itself into selecting tho right moment for their restoration. This will obviously be when they will lie in no danger from eithera foreign enemy or a revolutionary mob. I am inclined to answer the first question in favor of Athens. To the second I should reply that as long as Dcleyannism exists the marbles must stay in tlie British museum, which means that, before they go, the criminal statistics must show a very marked improvement and tlie drachma must get to within ten per cent, of its nominal value.
