A Young Men's Christian associa tion building was opened in Naga saki, Japan, last May, when the asso ciation had eighty members. It now has 420, with, a night school of 120 young men. Japanese members pay all the expenses with the exception of a few hundred dollars sent from Germany has the largest memberVn f n tt . r-.l - M . continental countries, and now has 89 paid secretaries. It has several special buildings for soldiers la big garrison places and camps. Bakers, waiters and hotel employes have their special associations and the White Cross movement Is powerful in Its influence for a clean life. The in plate and steel workers' unions at Llanelly, Wales, have unan imously pledged to secure from the workmen of that two two cents a month from each man and one cent a month from each boy for a period of two years for a Y. M. C. A. building. Their contribution will be nearly $5,000. The Welsh associations are fol lowing the American rapid building campaign plan In canvasses led by G. W. Rankin. When the famous Major General Baden-Powell was advertised to speak to boys in Birkenhead, England, on "Scouting," crowds of boys came out to hear him. He urged that the char acteristics of the successful scout in tin- tit which would count as well In the life of boys, were the cultiva tion of the powers of observation, deduction, and promptitude of action. When he declared that the best Bcouts did not use tobacco, because it impair ed the visual and nasal organs and would stunt the growth and intellect of a boy, he gave thm a lesson which they will not be quick to forget.

In a recent report of the geologica survey of India there is an interesting account of the Panna diamond fields of central India, Historically this country is believed to be the origina homo of the diamond and from them it is supposed that the famous Kohl noor was extracted some three and half centuries ago, the earliest dla monds dating some 25 years previous 17. Of late years India has quite re tired from the field as a precious stone producer to any extent or value, but from the account given it should be worth the while of a small syndicate to take up these diamond fields, says the Pioneer, and work them systemati cally, though, it is 6ald that neither in luster nor price do the stones found compare with the yield of the South African fields. The methods, however, now In vogue mean merely superficial treatment, following the lines which have been in vogue for centuries, with the probable result that the strata con taining the most valuable deposits of stones are not reached. From a geological point of view there are said to be diamond bearing conglomerates over several areas, which would admit of deep shaft sinking, and systematic mining under competent control being carried on profitably. Proper Time for Inspection. una ci tne oniciais or a town near Philadelphia has been the butt of much good natured raillery for some days past a3 the result of a bull made by him at a recent official meeting. Complaint had been made that tha hose ia use by the fire department of the town had been very unsatisfactory and that at the last two fires to which the company had turned out sections of the hose were found in a leaking condition. After considerable discussion as to the proper action to be taken the official in question surprised hia colleagues when he arostf and said: "I move, Mr. Chairman, that until further notice the chief of the fire department be Instructed to have an inspection of all fire hose made two days before every fire.'"
