6. Kendall. Montana, February 24, 1903 PRAISES ADIERiCANS: China's Late Minister, Wu Ting - Fang, Gives His Impressions. hpeake in High Terene of the Enter.. price and %duptahiJAty of the Average Amerbratt and His Accoazipli•hineint•. Americans are known, in whatever quarter of the world chance hap- pens to throw them, by their mar- velous self-reliance and independence. A typical American is never at a loss wnat to do with himself, writes Wu Ting -Fang in Success. If, by Some enchantment he were whisked away over night and set down in the middle of Timbuctoo, he would, doubtless, when he should awake the next morning, be astonished, but be- fore luncheon he would be busily en- gaged in some business enterprise, so re..(1:ly does he adapt himself to cir- cumstances. In every instance he knows how to take care of himself, but perhaps the real secret of his success is that he knows how to make the most of his opportunities. An American student usually real- izes that education is the stepping- stone to achievement. He studies with the expectation of fitting him- self for the profession or occupation he is ultimately to enter. He makes the most of himself as a student, that he may be able to make the most of himself in his chosen career. All through his course of study this idea is instMed into his mind, and the consequence is that he leaves his college or university well prepared to enter upon life's activities. Ile is sure of himself. I may also add that the schools of ti -e United States, both public and collegiate, are the crown- ing glory of this young and great re- public. No words can bestow upon them too high praise. No estimate can be pot upon the good which they are accomplishing in training young women as well as young men for fu- ture usefulness. Systematic educa- tion is reaching its highest form is this country. Its resqlts are so prac- tical that the country cannot help but advance. The intelligence of the average American is worthy of note. This, I take it, is due in large Measure not only to tbe excellent school*. hut also to the innumerable newsnapers and other publications. I have fowl& in all parts of the country, that in every town of any size there is pub- lished_a__ daily_ panel', 'and that the metronolitan publications circulate In the homes of the most remote cor- ners of the land. The abilities to seize his opnortii- nities. which is characteristic of the American. in seen in the business en- ternrisea of the country. its indus- trial machinery is adjusted to the production of its wealth on a scale of unprecedented magnitude. This is a valuable condition. American brains and American capital are reno , inz out to control the mu-Trete of the world, and, With good reason, other nations are !retching the ef- forte with keen intereet. Chinn is but awakening to its vast nossibilf- ties, and more and more will she wel- come the American merchant ana American commerce Within her bor; ders. American\ enternrise is now building a railway from Hankow to Canton. and, no doubt, other roads will soon be building. China's rivers and harbors aKe to he improved, and there will be more and more demand for American 'steel, rails and other products. STATUES HAVE SMALLPDX. sapidenste of Mimeos. Amnesia !from Figure. lin A•thenn—HOW Thar Are Alerted. A most extraordinary disease, ex- tremely_ Infections and. resembling smallpox among human beings, has broken out among the statues in the Egyptian room of the National mu- seum here, says aq Athens (Greece) correspondent of the New York Times. A few days ago the distin- guished politician and archaeologist, Mr. Stepbanos Skouloudes, noticed some strange green marks on one of the brome statues of the famous Egyptian collection presented to thc museum in 1681 by Mr. Demetrios, of Alexandria. He at once communi- cated his discovery to the curator, who called in experts to examine the statue in question. They pronounced the marks to be due to an infectious complaint, to which bronze is liable, and which gradually spreads from the surface of the object affected to the inside, till the whole crumbles away into dust. The other bronze statues in the sante room were then inspected, with the result that they NV:9 . e all found to be more or less tainted with the dkease, while five of them had taken it in a most ag- gravated form. These five are the statues of Ante, the goddess of war; of Mamit, wife of Jupiter Ammon; of leis, and two statues of Osiris, one of them of the greatest value. Worse that that, the infection has spread to the Mycenaean room, which con- tains the results of the late Dr. Schliemann'a excavations in 1878. There a dagger, which was found in the fourth and finest of the six tombs, has filllen a victim to the mal- ady. Altogether about fifty statues are badly affected, and the loss will he enormous unless the plagiie can be stayed. A leading Athenian chemist nronminces the cause of the malady to be the sresence of Raft in the bron , e of wl ieh tlp statues are made, and his re—e - ly IS to eXtract it by means of baths.
