For a conclusive answer, as to the effects of prohibition in Kan sas, read the following summary of a paper by Governor Stubbs, of that State: The death-rate in Kansas is the lowest of any State or Nation on earth only 1 per thousand. ' Under prohibition the popula tion has increased 100 per cent, while the number of convicts has only increased 17 per cent. More than 50 per cent of the county jails are without a pris oner under conviction, and last vear 49 out of 105 counties did not send a prisoner to the peni tentiary. The ratio of convicted prison ers is one for every 7,000 inhab itants, while 75 per cent of the jail prisoners have been con victed for violations of the pro hibitory law. Fifty-four counties are with out an idiot, and 87 without an insane person in the asylums. The first few years of prohi bition showed a' decrease of per cent of divorce cases. Ninety-six counties have not an inebriate. Six of the nine counties furnishing inebriates were counties bordering on the wet section of Missouri. In education this is the status: Kansas has a permanent schoo fund of $10,000,000. most of it invested in municipal bonds of the cities of Kansas, which offer the safest kind of investment. There are normal schools estab lished in 100 of the 105 counties. During the last nine years the enrollment of the State Univer sity has increased from 1,150 to 2,063, the normal from 1,630 to 2,860, the Agricultural College from 870 to 2,192, besides 9,000 young people attending denomi national institutions and 4,548 attending business colleges. School property is worth $16, 000,000. There are 7000 newspapers and magazines and 98 per cent of then will not admit liquor ad vertisements to their columns. The first twenty years of pro hibition reduced illiteracy 40 per cent. The increase of wealth within the last ten years has been in bank deposits from $69,000,000 to $189,000,000. The per capita increase has been from $60 to $113. The increase of taxable prop erty has been $120,000,000 a year for that period. The total as sessed valuation of property in Kansas is $2,435,691,859, which far exceeds the assessments of most of the States with equal op portunities. The State tax is 90 cents per $1,000, a very low rate. The garnishment courts that ran continuously under liquor conditions have been put out of business. Forty-nine of the county poor farms have been turned into ex periment stations with the State Agricultural College, because there were no paupers to be cared for. American Loan to China May Not Go Through. Peking, China, Dispatch, Nov. 30. Serious doubt that the pro jected loan of $50,000,000 to China by an American financial syndicate will be finally con cluded is expressed in Peking. Numerous difficulties have arisen among them because of the un willingness of China to accept a foreign financial advisor. With out such control it is said; that the promoters are unwilling to proceed. The present is recognized as a crucial period in the history of China. If borrowed millions are squandered any calamity will be possible, even a revolution and the partition of the empire. The Chinese have never been more sensitive to foreign usur pation of authority than they are now and they look upon the proposition to give the foreign financial group control of the currency reform, to which the loan was to be devoted, as a fur ther encroachment upon their integrity, of which the new sen ate and the parliamentary party throughout the country is es pecially jealous. An imperial edict issued on October 29 authorized a loan of $50,000,000 from a group of American financiers, who were to take a bond issue to cover the loan at 95. The bonds were to mature at a period of from 40 to 45 years from issuance and to bear 5 per cent, interest. The loaning syndicate was made up of J. P. Morgan and Company, Kuhn, Loeb and Com pany, the National City Bank and the First National Bank, all of New York city. On Novem ber 10 an agreement was signed in London by which English, German and French banks were made participants in the loan.

An nouncement of the passing of the venerable leader, which occurred late last night at her home, Chestnut Hill, a suburb, was made at the morning service of the Mother church in this city to-day. 'Natural causes'-exp!ains the death, according tctDr. George L. West, a district medical exami ner. who was summoned a few hours after Mrs. Eddy died Later Dr. West added that the more immediate cause was prob ably pneumonia. Mrs. Eddy was a native of New Hampshire and was probab ly SO years old. She had been North Carolina Wins. Raleigh Evening Times. The record made by North Carolina at the national horti cultural congress at Council Bluffs, la., has attracted the at tention of the entire Union, and is one that every citizen of the state should be proud of. There were three purple championship ribbons offered, and North Caro lina won two of these, though there were 32 states competing. Besides this, six silver trophies, 20 gold medals, 48 blue ribbons, li second, ana six tnira prizes were captured, more tnan any two states, the total value being more than $1,000. North Carolina excelled in the general display, in the apple ex hibit, in the collection of nuts, in English walnuts, in vegetables, and even won second on citrus fruit. The winning of all these prizes, and many others, in com petition with the whole Union will be of inestimable value to this state. It shows what can be done in the Old North State. $500 For a Kiss. District Court Judge A. J. Murff held at Shreveport, La., last week that the kiss of a young widow was worth $500. The de cision was rendered in the case of Mrs. Grace Hunter against J. K. Norman, formerly postmaster at Oil City, La. It was at the post office that the alleged offense was committed. Mrs. Hunter alleged that Norman kissed her while she was in the office. She sued for $2,000. Judge Murff admonished Norman that he locked old enough to know better.
