Trains In Vienna Will Travel About I Twenty Miles an Hour. Plans are now under consideration for an underground electric railway In Vienna, Austria, for the transinis slon of postal matter. It is proposed to link together the chief postotlice and sixty-four substations and the nine railway stations in the city. Let ters, newspapers and parcels will be carried over this line instead of in wagons through the streets. It is esti mated that the line will take the place of 450 mail wagons and 700 horses, which now make some 2.500 journeys through the city every day. The railway will be built in a sub way five feet high and a little less in width. Each car will carry eighty packages, which is equal to the ca pacity of a one horse mail wagon. Trains of eight cars will be run every twenty minutes from half past - in the morning until 10 o'clock at night. They will carry motormen, but wilt be operated from dispatch stations and will travel about twenty miles an hour. ___ ___ Bad Symptoms.

'. . LII1T.1., - RACE NEARLY Ri1N ABORIGINES OF AUSTRALIA FAST DYING OUT. Estimate Made That Another Ccntury Will See the Last of Perhaps the Most Ignorant Peo pie on Earth. The red Indian in this country is us ually pictured as a pathetic ins! a,e of a dying people, yet the zIndian ii ha incr-eased rather than diminished in numbers during the last ten years. On the other hand, several important races are swiftly passing out of ex istence and will soon be known to history only. Of these the most interesting is, perhaps, the race of aboriginal blac's of Australia and the islands close to the smallest of the world's continental masses of land. Scientists estimate that another century will see the last of the Australians. As far as religious feelings go the Australian black employs devil wor ship in its crudest form. The devil, or "Jingy." as the native term the evil spirit, is constantly avoided and the curious fact that the black nevt r steps in any one camp for more than three days Is b.tsed on the supposition that the devil is always on his track hunt ing him. The number is themystic fig ure in the dull brains of these nutives. Thus they stay in each bush camp for three days. Tlhey dig three graves for each dead native in order to fool ".Iingy." The body is placed in the middle grave upon a thick bed of leaves and the knees are tied up against the breast with lashings of tree boughs and tlhe arms are crossed over the breast. The head is turned toward the cast and in this the native worship of the sun is alone visible. The black man (f Australia can count up to three, but beyond that his brain, seems im possible to lead. The race is anything but a hand some one, and is made even horrible in appearance by deforming customs. The women show the left shoulder and breast, which has queer lumps of flesh, nearly white in color. Whlen a girl child is born the women take it and with sharp flints gash the left shoulder and breast and white sand is put into the wounds. On healing these gashes turn almost white and form hideous lumps. Those are the distinctive marks of beanIv and fashion for the woman bltCk of Australia. With the males their prime orna ment is to wear the thin splinter bone of the hind leg of the katigaroo. This is usually four inches long and is bored straigi,t through the part of the nose separating the nostrils. This Is the sign of a bachelor among the natives. For diet they like the kanga roo, 'possum, dog, fish, whale, seal, lizards, grubs and, in fact, almost any thing wvill do, as these careless, lazy p)eop)le often starve to 'death where human beings of even fair inteili gence would not experience any har-d ships. When food is plenty they stuff until ill and waste much. The weapons used for the chase and war- are the same and very poor. As a matter of fact, the Austiralian blacks never- pmt up any fight against the white men. 'The boomuerang or- k iley is the on!y inter-sting weaipon they have, and that and t he cod.ia or stone hatchet are the only weapons they had In vented when tturned out by white set tler-s.
