We republish by request tho above problem, and the solution by Mr. Eugene Johnston, of Littleton. PHOULEM. Three centuries after Christ there were ),()00,000 Christians, an average of 1,15110,000 per century. Eight centuries after Christ there were 30,000,000 Christians, nil increase of 5,- 000,000 per century. Ten centuries alter Christ there were fifty million, au increase of 10,000,000 per century. Fifteen centuries after Chi ist there wsro 100,000,001) Christians, au increase of 10,000,000 per century. Eighteen centuries after Christ there were 174,000,000, an increase of, ttuy, 25,000,000 per century. Now there are 450,000,000, an in crease of of 270,000,000 to tho present time, or about 300,000,000 per century. AT THIS RATE OF INCREASE HOW LONO WILL IT TAKE TO CHRISTIANIZE TnE WHOLE WOULD? SOLUTION. I assume the present popu'ation of the world to be, iu round numbers 1500 millions, and tho yearly increase of the popul ition of the wotlil to be 1 5 millions. This rate of increase for 50 yeats, will give a total increase of 750 millions, which added to 1500 millions, the pres ent population of (he world, will give 2250 millions for the population of thn world, lift v vears hence, or in tho vewr A. 1. 1912. In tho problem, the increase of Chris tianity is given for the LSih century at 25 million, and for the 19th ceutury tit 300 millions. This radical increaso in the 18th and 1'Jth canturies from the gradual progressive increase from the be ginning, through tho other preceding centuries, virtually eliminates all other rates of increase from tho calculation and makes tho difference in the increase of the lSth and 19th centuries tho truo and proper rate of increaso to base calculation for future increase. Now as tho increaso of Christianity was 300 millions in the 19th century or 12 times '- ' ir than in the 18th centu ry, it foiioffs at tho same rate of increase, it must be 12 times greater in the 20th than in tho 19th century which is 12 times 300 millions or 3000 millions in crease for the 20th century or 1800 mil lions for half century of fifty years, to which add 450 millions, tho present number of Christians, and we have 2250 millions Christians, fifty years hence, in the year A. D. 1912, which as shown above will also bo tho population of the world at that time. My answer is, I re peat, fifty years from the present time, or in the year A. D. 1942. - ! Dyspepsia anil I.

TIIK NEW YORK WOULD COIilt KSPONll ENT HAS A l'I.EASANT WOK1J TO SAY OP SENATOll VANCE. Senator Vance, of North Carolina, has been under the weather and has been cautioned by his physician to be extremely prudent. He is troubled with facial paralysis and with sinking spells that make breathing difficult. He has been similarly affected before. While he was Governor of North Carolina a few years ago his life for a time was despaired of. There is probably no member of the Senate whose absence from the Chamber is more readily noted by his associates. Mr. Vance is a wit, a philosopher, an in imitable story teller and the jolliest of companions. Ho is the one member of that solemn and irupre3sivo body who refuses to succumb to the heavy ntmos phere of his station. Ho insists, though a Senator, on taking life naturally and pleasantly and his running and racy com ments on the debates are about the richest things heard in the Senate Mr. Vance does not speak often, but ho always com mands attention. Neither docs he at tempt to lay down the law when ho does take the floor. His speeches illustrate the uucoaventional typo of the man, being full of homely phrases in vogtio in rural communities and of apt and breezy references to every day affairs. The Senator enjoys a neatly turned parody aud has moi j than once shocked tho Senate but delighted his friends by quo ting a bit of doggerel. Mr. Vance is tixty-two, but ho is heavy, aud, like ihe niaj.nr y if large men, he neglects to take sufficient exer cise, and the results is somo serious dis order of his system. His trip to Europe last year did not permanently benefit him. N. C. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY. The work of the North Carolina Ge ological survey is being actively pushed in several sections of tho State. The State geologist will spend the month of May in tho counties lying between tho It ileigh & Gaston, and the Wilmington and Weldon railroads, and north of the North Carolina Railroad, examining the general geological formations, building stones and iron ores. Mr. II. B. C. Nitze, geologist in charge "of the iron ore inves tigation, is now making an examination of the belts of iron ore and limestone of Gaston, Lincoln, Catawba and adjoining counties. Mr. J. V. Lewis is investiga ting the building stone formations of tho Deep river Tiiassio sandstone belt, which extends from Granville county across the State to the South Carolina lino. Other assistants connected with the survey will enter upon field woik at an early dale. In Juno al' the survey parties will be concentrated in the mountain counties. where tho work begun last summer will be continued. An important piece of work recently begun by tho survey, and one in which all the assistants will take part, is the study of tho rocks to bo fouud in different parts of the State which are suitable for use in macadamizing public roads. The improvement of (lie public roads is being generally agitated, and quite a number of counties arc macada mizing the more important loads, but some td' them aro using inferior r ck, while much better material is near at baud. A report by the survey ou the best stone for road material, where it is to be found in quantity uud how to usj it, will be of gre it service to the peoplo.

Ono of the most delicate surgical oper ations ever performed in San Francisco was that to which A Baehni, a patient at the Ci'y and County Hospital, was sub jected recently. The operation was re markable in that an endoscope or small electric light, was used during the process. This was thrust into the thoracic cavity, and by its illumination tho action of the heart and lungs was plainly visible. This is the first case reported on the Pacific coast where the electric cndnscope was used in difficult surgery with beneficial results. Baehni was tifilietcd with an abscess, which had formed in the pleural cavity and attacked the left lung. The opera tion was nn exceedingly dangerous one, and in order not to shock the patient no mention (if tho intention of the physi cians was made to him. The sick man was quickly anaesthetized and the inflated breast was exposed to view. A discoloration on the left side showed that the trouble lay under the tissue in that direction, and Dr. Ellin wood began operations at once by making two deep incisions crosswise, from which tho blood spurted in streams. Several of tho larger blood vessels were necessarily cut, but these were quickly ligatured with Dr. Stillmau's assistance. The flaps of flesh were laid to one side, exposing the third rib to view. This rib was resected for three inches, aud when it was cut away a dark and bloody opening was re vealed, through which the thoracic cavity and the space between the lungs could be seen. Dr. Hirschfelder inserted tho en doscope thrrugh the opening in Baehm's breast and the light was turned, illumina ting the interior of tha cavity with re markable distinctness. The heart worked slowly, owing to the effect of the ether. The aorta dilated and fell with every heart beat. Tho lung was also plainly visible. During the one hour and a half coniumed in making the operation the action of the heart was plainly visible, and the u.msual sight was the subject of much comment upon the part of tho operators and spectators. The operation was a highly successful one in every particular, and Baehm's condition shows that he is gaining strength. EI. IAS C A It It NOT A CANDIDATE. Tttrboro Southerner.
