The Yellow Peril Scare Governor Pothier of Rhode Island in a speech before the New England Textile Club unburdened himself of the following: "The recent tariff legislation ha.-T opened the way for a commercial yellow peril. It will result in the lowering of wages of textile mill operatives and will deprive American manufacturers of their home market. That there may be a 'yellow peril' commercially no thoughtful man will deny." But that's justlwhere the Governor is wrong. Thoughtful men, who know a great deal more about the Celestial Empire than he, do deny that there is any possible danger from a commercial yellow peril. Not for at least two or three genesations may we expect to see the yellow men tenter into v competition with western factories. In China the famUy and not the individual is the social unit. Here we are accustomed to see an individual detach himself from the mass and walk free as an independent responsible person, but there it is not so ; a man is not an individual,
but a fraction of a family. And-duty to his kins
men is the Chinaman's highestethical principle
As a consequence nepotism is rampant every
where. Offer a Chinaman a job 'today and you will find a swarm of sinecurists settling about him tomorrow each one with some petty place,
suckincr a bit from your treasury. This alone
makes any industrial enterprise almost im possible.
The wellnigh universal habit of pilfering is
another great obstacle in the path of industrial
success. So hard pressed are the Chinese for food and other necessaries of life they have fall
en into the habit of taking for granted the small
thefts that make work a nightmare for the for
eigner. Hundreds of thousands of bolts, plates, nuts, etc., are annually stolen from the Hankow
and other railways. The Chinaman will pilfer
the hair that a camel sheds. Therefore many an
enterprise goes glimmering because its profits
are eaten up by these human rodents.
And what is pilfering among the poor (90 per cent, of China) becomes "squeeze" among the mandarins and managers. Grafting, opium smoking and gambling constitute the empire's
trinity of devils. It is almost impossible to de pend on a native manager, overseer or superin
tendent. He will pocket so much of the funds
nothing will be left for operations. Chinese riv
ers, Edward Allsworth Ross says, are often
nnea wirn rusting macninery wnicn never
reached its destination because of the "squeeze all along the line.
The Chinaman has never learned team play cr the habits of co-operative enterprise. The biting need of securing today's bread has been with him so many centuries he will sacrifice any future gain for present profits. It is for this reason, largely, China's magnificent natural re
sources have never been developed.
The utter lack of harmonious and adequate central control is another barrier in the way of
Chinese industrialism. If one starts a boat load
of goods across a province he will find it almost
impossible to negotiate the trip owing to the chaos of customs, tariffs, taxes, etc. Every petty viceroy or mandarin seems to have his own little code of laws and regulation. Most important of all, the yellow man has the handicraft habits woven into his flesh and blood. He can't seem to learn industrialism. A machine is worse than a Chinese puzzle to him. They are so slow, so listless, so underfed and so careless it is almost impossible to secure the men -who can keep up with a machine. China has governmental bridge works, the employes of which work for three or four cents a day, yet so inefficient are they it is found cheaper to import bridges from Belgium where the laborer receives fifty times as much. On an average, one European worker turns out more than five Chinamen. Nothing but generations of schooling, centuries of drill, revolutionary changes in government and complete changes in social customs will ever place China in competition with European or American industrial markets.
A Great Sight One of the sky's most magnificent spectacles is Saturn. The great planet is no less than 70,000 miles in diameter, almost nine times the size of our own earth. He sweeps around the sun only once in thirty years and is almost 900,000,000 miles away from it. Saturn is well equipped with celestial wonders. He has circling about him ten moons, the largest of which may be seen with a small telescope, though the smallest is too minute for the largest. Only the supersensitive surface of the photographic plate avails to detect these tiny satellites. But Saturn's biggest display is his famous rings. These, tipping at an angle of 26 degrees

knocked out of him by a peep through a big telescope. Saturn may be seen these evenings about nine o'clock. He is in the neighborhood of the Hyades, close to the first magnitude star, Aldebaran. Hunt him up one of these fine nights. He is one of the shows of astronomy. And there won't be any admission to his display. Rockefel

floating on top a great, limitless ocean, with mythologic regions bounding it in each direction, he mapped the celestial regions and unraveled some of the most tangled mysteries of the stars. Astronomy was the first science; and astronomy is the science of the farthest away. Psychology is almost the last science, yet psychology deals with the human soul itself, its functions, powers and laws. Himself was man's last discovery. Until a brief time ago he knew more about the movements of the planets than the tides of his own blood, was better acquainted with the solar system than with his own stomach. Psychology is the youngest of the great sciences, younger even than sociology which is the most difficult of all, for it was established only about fifty years ago. But even then it remained academic and sterile until the present decade when for the first time the psychologists have begun to use the precise instruments of measurement, comparison and description that are so essential to any science. But even in so brief a period revolutions have been wrought in our view of human existence, revolutions so profound, so far reaching, the masses will not even begin to realize them for at least a hundred years. Some glimmering of this new knowledge will be gained from the article by Sir Oliver Lodge which appeared in the Palladium Monday evening. If that escaped you, fish it out from behind the kitchen stove and read it. Sir Oliver deals with telepathy, the psychologic doctrine that individual minds are able to communicate at a distance without any visible means of contact. Alongside this fact, which is indubitable, Marconi wireless telegraphy dwindles to insignificance. But telepathy is not the only wonderful power of the human soul. Each new year, almost, brings some new glimpse of those wonderful invisible regions. The psychologists believe, at least many of them, that the mind never surrenders a single possession, but clings to it forever. In other words, has perfect memory. No man ever forgets anything. He may not be able to recall a matter at some particular time, but the thing is there and may bob up on some other occasion. When a man realizes that every feeling, every thought, every word, every action continues to live always in the memory's mysterious store houses, he will probably be a little more careful what he permits himself to feel, think, say, and do. A number of the very greatest of the psychologists are convinced the mind has power to move objects at a distance without visible means of touch. This faculty they call Telekinesis. Prof. Flournoy, in his extraordinary book, "Spiritism and Psychology," gives abundant proof of this power. The mind has a peculiar ability to foretell events that lie in the future. Forecasting is now accepted as a scientifically proved fact. A more popularly known faculty of the soul is clairvoyance, the ability to see things at a distance far out of the reach of the physical eyes. This is worked as a graft by scheming tricksters for personal gain, but is a veritable fact of the mind just the same. That many fraudulently claim to possess abnormal mental powers
doesn't prove for a moment that no abnormal
powers exist. The best things are the most counterfeited. Some of these days when we have more carefully explored the interior universe we will awaken to the truth that man carries within him an infinity alongside which the outer infinity of space and time and stars shrinks to nothing. "I will confront these shows of the day and night," said old Walt Whitman, "and see if I be not as great as they." What wonders lie buried under the threshold of man's normal consciousness balks the imagination. We can only say with Shakespeare, "How divine a thing is man!" And when skeptics, like the famous Frenchman, ask with fine scorn. "How can a man live in a future world? He will have no body to live with. How can one see without eyes, hear without ears, feel without nerves, achieve without hands?" the reply will be: "Even now we see without eyes, hear without ears, feel without nerves and move without feet or hands."

desks by the police. He really was
very angry about it. for, as he and every one knows, it is the correct thing in the best plotting circles to carry such papers on the person, where the secret police can get at them without vexatious delay and trouble. There can be little doubt
that the imprisoned deputies will get j
much severer sentences than they wou.d have received had they not maliciously sought to annoy the police and cause delay by leaving these incriminating documents in their desks, instead of carrying them to jail, where they could be found without trouble when the deputies were searched. Secret police Busy. Day after day, week after week, and month after month conspirators of all sorts and conditions have teen arrested by the secret police of Mexico,and there is hardly a case on record where incriminating documents were not found when the prisoners were searched. The police said so, and the police ought to know, for they are the ones who did the searching. There have been some few exceptions to the rule, but the conspirator upon whom no incriminating papers were found usually had excuses to offer for their remissness, saying that they had changed their clothes hurriedly and had forgotten to take the documents out of their other pockets, or they had left them absent mindedly at home on the piano, or had lent them to a conspirator friend, or a pickpocket had filched them.

Sometimes a conspirators' band is organized in the penitentiary among the prisoners and they have a great deal of trouble to provide themselves with enough incriminating documents to go around, for paper and pens and ink are difficult to obtain in prison. There have been violent quarrels because of this scarcity of incriminating documents in such cases, those without any complaining bitterty at the unjust discrimination which left them paperless.
Occasionally the police or the sol-1 diers have given chase to a suspect in the open country and have pressed him so hard that the poor fellow has been obliged to throw away his arms and ammunition and discard his cloth-

The itching and burning was something terrible. I would start to scratch and could not stop. I would eyen scratch through the skin and that of course would leave a sore which I was compelled to bandage. : "I tried several prescriptions and treatments, but received not a particle of benefit no more than if the treatments were cold water. I then bepan to have very little faith in anything and of course could do nothing but scratch away.
