WHAT CHICAGO OWES TO
GEOGRAPHY
Chicago Iji the subject of 009 of ?
series of bulletins on .American cities.
The following description Is bused on
? communication to the National
Geographic Hoclely t> y William Joseph
ahinvalter :
"Geography made Chicago. It* po
sition*' at the foot of the Great Lakes
resulted In Its evolution as the furthest
Inland terminus of navigation of the
Inland seas,
"Made what It Is by the processes
of geography, Chicago soon returned
the compliment by helping geography
transform 'other regions. Its slaughter
ing and packing industry has changed
tin* center of gravity of t Ik* meat-pro
ducing world. Its agricultural Imple
ment Industry has re/lsed the eco
nomic status of more than half of
the Inhabitant* of the earth. Its
sleeping-car industry has entirely re
vised the geography of travel, bring
ing hundreds of plaees separated by
mountain and plain close to each
Other.
"It Is. Interesting to pause for a
bird's-eye inventory of what the city
Ir today. Fourth In population, it
ranks lirst nmofig Hie world's great
urban eeuters in many wn^vs. No oth
er place butchers as mueli meal,
nu'ikes milch machinery, builds as
nianx e:irs. sells as much grain. or
hai'd'e* :i ^ much lumber.
"The .Mlehigan avenue Improvement
is n major feature of the now famous
'clueago I'hiU? The beautiful high
way. with its connecting arteries,
unites the North Shore with the South
side. For years this' thoroughfare ban
been The pride of Chicago, and the
admiration of all who visit the city.
As a part of the Lake Shore drive
that links the woods of southern Wis
consin with the plains of northern In
diana, It" Is a magnificent street.
"To secure the full benefits of her
situation, the city is undertaking to
connect her three great lakesWe
parks. Already Lincoln park" has
edged a narrow way southward along
the beach until there Is a wonderful
curving stretch of green reaching to
Grand avenue and making a four-mile
parkway unbroken and unmarred;
? "The city annually spends five mil
lion dollars for park purposes; more
per capita, perhaps, than any other
city of the first order. In existence.
There Is not a 'keep off the grass'
RiKn in the entire park system; and
all recreatioual facilities are freo? ex
cept the -boat* In the lagoons.
"There is a 'swimming hole' with
in walking distance of every boy in
Chicago: and even with the fine mu
nicipal bathing beaches of the lake
front not far away, these'nild-clty park
lagoons nre always In use. providing
Joy for the hearto of the kiddles who
visit them."

HUNGER SUPPLANTS FETES
WHERE WOMEN WORE
TWENTY PETTICOATS
Budapest now is capital of a
ahrunken Hungary, u nation reduced
t?? it fourth lis former size, both in
lespect to its urea and population.
The fn luou* clt,\ which tlrsi expe
rienced ami rcliy and carriage during
the era of If el a Kun and his commu
nistic government, now feels the pangs
of hunger, and can . scarcely hope to
regain its former Importance, .pros
perity ami gayety during the lifetime
of Its present Inhabitants. if ever.
Ihe Budapest of today offers a pa
thetic contrast to the care-free jiays
of such fetes as that of St. Stephen's
: before the war.
I That historic celebration. when men
I wore slit skirts and the women
i donned L'O petticoats, is described in
i the folloxying bullet in from the Xa
| tional (Jeogruphic society, based on a
1 communicnt ion from I Witt Clinion
Falls:
"For w^o Saint Stephen was. and
why he was thus honored, we must
go hack some nine hundred and odd
years in Hungarian history, from
which we gather ihe following infor
mation: Vaik came to Hie throne of
the Magyar Duchy in ihe year i)U7.
He applied for ami received the title
of Apostolic king from Pope Sylves
ter TT. and was crowned in Budapest
in the year lOtg), under the Christian
name of' Stephen. He did much for
his countrymen lo bring them into
the established church, and founded
throughout his kingdom churches,
schools and convents. 1 1 Ik adminis
tration was a w ise -one, and so firmly
fdid he deal with the attempted upris
ing of the 'Old Magyar Religion' party
that when his death occurred, in lOfhJ
he left his country entirely converted
to Christianity. So much had he done
for, the advancement of the Christian
faith among the wild hordes of east
ern Europe, and added to the civili
zation of IiJh subjects, that he was
canonized and gladly proclaimed by
the Hungarians as their patron saint.
"When the Saint passed away. In
lO.iU, one of his hands was amputated
and embalmed, and this sacred relic
reposes In the court chapel of the
ltoyal Palace In old Butla. Adorned
with many handsome rings, it is kept
In a crystal casket, set In a beautiful
golden reliquary ornamented with
many precious stone.s. In a special
shrine behind the high altar. It re- !
malned for 364 days in every vear, I
where It could he seen only by the '
royal household, and those having j
| special permission. On the throe hun
i dred and slxt.v-flfth day. the one set
J rfpart to do honor to Saint Stephen,
i It was token from Its resting place,
nnii with great pomp ami a most bril
liant escort, carried In a procession
to the old Matthias church f'?r a spe
| clal memorial service.
! "The first thing thar attracted our
| attention, as we drove by the walking
| crowds, was the change of costume of
1 the peasants from the day before.
| Then all were in their working
? clothes, but today they were arrayed
! in alt their glory. The men had re
tained their flat hats, but had general

"The United States drove the bu

as completely as It swept the yel

"Bubonic plague wan discovered at
Manila December -tt. 1899. and slowly
but steadily Increased up to l>e< em

total of 48i!. The disease was at Its
worst each year during the hot. dry
months of March. April, and May,
nearly or quite disappearing during
September, October. November, and
December. It will be noted that the
number of cases in 11)01 exceeded that
In 1900 by 200, while the number of
deaths was about two and a halt
times as great, and . the percentage
of mortality among persons attacked
increased from 711.4 In lJXH) to 91.7
In 1901.
"On account of the important part
which house rats are known to jUjiy
in the distribution of bubonic plague,

Policemen, sanltan inspectors, and
specially appointed rat-catchers were
furnished with traps and poison, and
Infill traps and poison were distribut
