The German Birth-Rate.
Statistics just published show that the birth-rate in some of the largest German towns is steadily on the decrease. This is most marked in Berlin, Charlottenburg, Hamburg, and Crefeld. In the 'Seventies, Berlin had a birth rate of 47.2 per 1000 inhabitants; and in 1875, Charlottenburg The corresponding figures for one of 49.
Char- 1003 Aro-Berlin, 25.69; and lottenburg, 23,33. Fortunately, this de- crease is not found in all German townA alike. Cologne, Stettin, Nurenberg, and Mannheim even show & considerable in- crease in the number of births per thousand inhabitants. The birth-rate in the whole German Empire reached its highest figure in 1876, when there were 42.6 births per thousand inhabitants. Since then it has steadily decreased, being only 36.8 per thousand inhabitante in 1900.
Defences of Australia.
In the Federal House of Representa tives on Nov. 2 Mr McCay, Commonwealth Minister of Defence, outlined his Defence Scheme, which is largely constituted after the Swish and the new British systems. The scheme provides for the establishment of a Council of Defence, consisting of the Minister of Defence, the Treasurer, the
Military Inspector General, the Director of
the Naval Forces, and the Chief of the General Staff, besides specially expert con- Aultative members, Naval and Military Boards are also created, which are respon sible for administration. The latter is removed entirely from the instructional branch and from the executive command. It will be the duty of the Inspector General constantly to travel and to make representations to the Minister of Defence The Go- regarding efficiency or defects.
vernment is opposed to importing a single officer as long as it can find suitable men in Australia; but is in favour of sending officers home for instruction,"
A Well-known Cricketer Dead.
The well-known Yorkshire oricketer Jack Brown is dead. Pthysis is, no doubt, the cause, although the telegram does not say so, for last year the state of his lungs prevented him from taking his customary place in the Yorkshire eleven. Jack Brown was one of the most popular professional cricketers of the day, and was A typical Yorkshireman. He always played the game and there was no better man in a tight corner. His work for Yorkshire was practically done and he has been on the wane during the past few years. Brown and Tunnicliffe were a splendid first-wicket pair and as is well-known they held the record for this, 554 compiled against Der- byshire in 1898. Then what cricketer needs to have recalled the imperishable feat of Brown, Ward and Maclaren in Aus. tralia, when they wont in against a total of 500 odd and won the match and the rubber. Jack Brown was only 35-a big age unfort unately for the professional cricketer.- Times of Ceylon.

The following table is a chronologically arranged list of mail steamer sailings to Europe, America, Canada, and Australia. Coast ports, Manila, and Japan are not given, for steamers are constantly sailing for those ports. All the American steamers call at Japan, and the majority of the Australian boats call at Manila, and, in addition to those vessels, special steamers run there. The departure of every steamer is subject to alteration. The P. & 0. mails usually reach London in about 28 days, and the French and German in about Alouette 28for 30 days.

After referring to the birth of Confucius 551 B.C., the lecturer dealt with his early life briefly. After filling certain Govern ment appointments Confucius became public teacher, and after visiting the neighbouring states he returned to Lu, where after some yests he became chief adviser to ita ruler. Asked one day by this person what kind of crown was worn by the Em- peror Shun, Confucius replied. I do not know what kind of garments Shun wore; but I do know the principles on which he ruled his people. Why should not Your Highness inquire about them? On another occasion, the Duke said to Con- facias: I have heard of a man, who, on removing to a new house, forgot to take his wife. Was there ever a case of greater forgetfulness Yes,' saswered Confucius; *it is that of the man who forgets himself.'
