The population of 'J,r>00,000 Is made up of Moldavians. Little Russian*. Poles. Roumanians, Bulgarians, .lews, Arme nians, < ?reeks, and Tartars. More than if.OOO.tXJO of the inhabitants live on the soil. The capital Is Klshinef, which is located almost at the center of the province. To the west of Bes sarabia lies Roumanian Moldavia, und to the east the Russian province of I'odolia and Kherson. The original inhabitants of Bessa rabia are believed to have been Cim merians. after whom cauie the Scyth ians. Because it was Ihe key to one of the approaches toward the empLre of Byzantium, the province was In. \Hded by many successive races dur ing the early centuries of the Chris tian era. Trajan Incorporated It with the province of Ducla, and In the next century the Goths poured Into it, to be fallowed in turn by the Huns, and Avars, and the Bulgarians. In the seventh century a Thraciun tribe, known as the BessI, settled there and grive to the land Its name. Between 1711 and 1812 It was the great bone of contention between the Ottoman Turks and the Russians. The Russians lost und recaptured it five times in that century. After the Napoleonic wars, It. was definitely an nexed to Russia, and Its frontier pushed southward so as to Include the delta of the Danube. As a result of the Crimean war, Moldavia was given Dobrudja ami other territory, but under the treaty of Berlin In 1878, following Russia's mastery of Turkey and the congress of Berlin, Russia secured all of the territory east of t lie river I'rnth. Bes sarabia remained a pnrt of Russia from that time until the dismember ment of the czar's empire, following the Russian revolutjpn.

"The problem ol improving a race of human beings is a most perplexing one to handle.

Under the best conditions It would require several generations to produce sensible results; but in the United States we have. 'In the new blood Introduced from Mihroad, an Im portant means of Improvement that will act more quickly, and that is emi nently susceptible to control.

"The grand spectacle Is presented to our' eyes of a new people being gradually evolved in the United Slates by the mingling together of the differ ent races of the world In varying pro portions. It Is of the greatest conse quence to us that the final result _should lie the evolution of a higher and nobler type of man In America, and not deterioration of the nation.

HOW STEEL IS MADE In the two years since the end ol hostilities In the World war, the coun tries suffering most from the conflict have been Importing steel to the ex tent that their finances will penult; for this substance Is needed to patch the industrial Injuries Inflicted fey the war. Some of the important methods employed in the making of steel are described in the following .communi cation to the National C.eogrtiphN' society, by William Joseph Showalter: "An open hearth furnace looks a good deal like An ordinary bake-oven; but when one looks in through the water-cooled door, a vast difference appears. Instead of pans of fra grant. fat loaves of baking bread, there is an Imposing pool of fiery liq uid as bright as the filament of a high-power tungsten lamp, so dazzling that ii can be examined with safety to Hie eyes only by those using col ored glasses. Tinted here and there with streaks, of soft .blue and dainty pink, it looks like iiioltvd silck candy. "In preparing a batter; of open heart Ii furnace" for a charge, finely grouml dolomite is shoveled in first. This melts like gin? and fills up all cracks and crannies caused by the powerful heat of the preceding charge. Then a little train roll* up before the battery, and an electric crane dumps box after box of scrap metal from the cars into the furnace-.

THE TRAGEDY OF ARMENIA The plight of Armenia about the end of ll'Mk aa condition which has been aggravated by tlie ivcent defeat of Aruieiilan forces by Turkish na tionallsis, is described in the following communication to the National' (?eo graplilc society from Melville ('hater. "lOrlviin, the capital uf Armenia's provisional republic is an inconceiv able contrast tu Hie (leorgiiin govern ment seat at T I tils. At Krlvnn one finds no spacious prospect nor vice regal palace. *no smart shops. Russian opera, nor gay niglit life. To behold misery in TUlls. one must search it out. In Krlvan one cannot escape It. "This poor, straggling, dingy city of the plains, whose government offices suggest some hastily extemporized elec tion headquarters and whose parlia ment chamber Is rigged up with bench es and cheesecloth In the auditorium of the second -clans theater, boasts of but one beauty, and that? to apeak In paradox? Is forty- uilles away; for. In whatever quarter of Erlvan you may be, lift yonr glance and great Ararat of eternal snows la seen brooding dis tantly over the mean streets with his aspect of majestic calm. Ho is the Armenian's Olympus, or rather say, the Sinai of a race which has known bondage and wilderness-wandering; and for centuries a people's Imagina tion has turned toward him. "The little Erlvan republic has heeu ti?e center of refuge for Turkish Ar menians ever since the massacre of 191ft, atid between 1100,000 ?nd 300, 000 of them are camped within Its borders. As for the city Itself, Its former i>opulation of 40,000, has been doubled by this Influx. There, star vation and typhus have claimed their toll of 9,000, the death rate fluctuat ing between fifty and eighty a day. "Though the doctor and 1 were here to observe the worst phases of the situation, each of us waited for the other to suggest a trip to the Igdir region, where we were told starvation whs most acute. "The town of Igdir. with Its local and near-by populations of 30,000 Ar menians, 20,000 Tatars, and 15,000 Yezidis, revealed some squalid streets with but a few people seated here and there, ns we drove in.
