A new problem Is Interesting the statisticians who take pleasure in figuring on the growth of New York Iti population.

That is the question of how the city will be affected by the transportation and terminal improvements resulting from the expenditure of hundreds of millions of dollars now being made by the railroads entering the city. While this will develop the metropolitan area as a whole so that the statisticians predict that New York will pass London as the world's metropolis by 1920, the fact that the greatest of these Improvements will facilitate transit to New likely to deprive the city proper of tens of thousands of inhabitants who will be lost to it so far as the census returns will indicate. The completion of four great tunnels under the North river, with the possible addition of the world's greatest bridge spanning it, will result In drawing a tremendous number of New Yorkers to the hills and shores of New Jersey, which will be brought Into close and direct touch with the metropolis. A writer In the New York Sun predicts that this exodus to th Garden State will be the greatest movement of Us kind that has ever occurred. Of course New York's loss will be New Jersey's gain, and the distribution of population by Its numerous trolley lines will convert the whole northern end' of the state into a prac tlcally continuous suburban city.

Your choice at cost. Arizona Hardware Vehicle Co. New York, Dec. 16 (Special Correspondence of The Keoublican.) One factor In the present stringency of the money market which seems to have been overlooked by the wise ones who don't know how it happened, it the Christmas flow of good American cash to Europe. This year its volume Is greater than ever before, and the clerks in the money-order department of the postofflce have been working overtime for a month to keep up with the rush.

So far more than 12,000,000 has been added to the Christmas fund of the old countries by relatives and friends here. The Celtic, which sailed on December 12, carried the largest mail ever sent from New York. It consisted of 4.03i sacks, containing 80,534 registered articles and 4,187 articles in the parcels post. It included money orders which reached a total of 905.048.68 in 58,534 orders, an average of 115.50 each. The largest amount, $279,636, went to Great Britain, Luxenburg got $135, the small est sum, while other small amounts went to Egypt and Portugal.

To Italy-went the second largest sum. $143,973. Sweden came third with $88,000, Austria got Hungary $80,000, Germany Norway. $54,000, Den mark $13,000. Switzerland $10,000.

France $9,000, Belgium $5,000, while the thrirty Dutchmen sent back to the land of dykes only $2,000. Six hundred teachers are wanted to participate In the $17,000,000 paid an-nually to the school ma'ams of New York city, and wanted quick. Appli cants should be old maids of vinegary and forbidding aspect, for the havoc i wrought last summer by the curly- I headed god in the costume advocated I by Mark Twain and armed with bow i and arrows, was so great that school officials despair of maintaining an efficient corps having even passably good looks. Just why the slaughter among school teachers should be so great Is held by philosophers and sages to be an inexplicable psychological phenom enon, but ordinary humans suspect the Manhattan male population of shrewd ly calculating that the young lady who has spent a year or two in teaching the young idea how to shoot, has stored up a valuable experience against the future and likely to be handy around the house. Every summer, as soon as the spring term of school Is over, there is a large crop of resignations, many of them for the avowed purpose of entering the matrimonial harness, which is held to debar them from positions as teachers.

This year the number of recruits has been considerably lessened by reason of the severity of the examinations and the fact that the preparatory course in the Normal College hai been sonsiderably lengthened. Meantime the increase In the enrollment o' pupils has been 33,000 over last year. The Increase has been greatest in th borough of the Bronx, where teacher re scarcest, and Queens, Richmond, Brooklyn, and Manhattan rank next In order. At present there are 554 school buildings In the city and 75 more ar-under construction. The shortage of teachers is so great that in many cases the older pupils are acting In that capacity to their younger comrades.

i AT COST STOVE BOARDS AND FIRE PLACE SETS AT COST DEEP AND SHALLOW PUMPS WELL The local custom house and appraiser's stores have never had a busler year vthan that Just closing, and the officials predict that the government's revenues for this year will be higher than ever before. Last year the commerce of the city reached the enorrrious total of $1,420,823,986. including the exports and imports of both merchandise and bullion. For the first eleven months of the present year the transactions aggregate $1,271,407,935, and it is expected that the trade movements of the month of December will increase the total to $1,501,845,957, or $81,021,871 more than last year. At the custom house it Is estimated that on December 31.

the duties collected during the year will amount to at least $200,000,000. I.ast year the revenue from this source was $183,752,315, against $170,270,776 in 1904. These figures show to whai an. extent New York serves as the clearing house of the foreign trade of the country. In the first eleven months of 1896 the total exports and imports through this port had a value of only $731,329,851 against more than a billion and a quarter so far this year, in a total of a little more than $3,000,000,000 for the entire country.

Among other things for the amusement of out of town visitors the entertainment menu this year Includes two grand operas in which the rivalries of the stars are not always confined to the stage. Signors Caruso and Bonci have Just concluded a merry war in which they recklessly hurled at eacu Gothamltes have never regarded Chi cago as backward in claiming anything that seemed to her desirable, especially if It could be obtained at the expense of New York; but the latest demand from the city by the lake has been something of a facer for all that. It Is nothing less than the claim of one Mrs. Laura E. Skeels to the Manhattan waterfront of the Harlem river, which.

through a reputable firm of Wall street attorneys, she asserts Is hers by virtue of a royal grant made to certain of her ancestors in 1666. At that time the chief products of the region were scalps, war whoops and wildcats; now they are high rents. The property Included In the claim, which extend clear across Manhattan Island at Itj widest part, has become enormously valuable within comparatively recent recent years, for the Harlem river la now a very important link in the city's system of waterways, and Is lined on either side with valuable dock and manufacturing sites. If Mrs. Skeels succeeds In proving her claim, and it is now receiving the serious attention of the Corporation Counsel, she will become the wealthiest landholder in the ocuntry, which has long been a position enjoyed by the Astor estate.

The 4-master schooner, William Nottingham, out of Port Townsend, on June 24, with the biggest cargo of lumber that ever came around the Horn, put into the New York harbor one day last week with a chapter of accidents to her credit that would be a genuine inspiration to W.

Clark Russell or any other chronicler of the sea. While the vessel was loading at Port Townsend, one of the crew stabbed the captain four times In the back. Bu the "old man" is only twenty-nino years old and speedily recovered. After 700 big sticks of Oregon pine, some of them more than 100 feet long and 3 feet In diameter, had been loaded, the vessel put to sea and sixty days after sprung a leak off the coast of South America. For a time the donkey engine served to keep her free of water, but on September 24 she ran Into an iceberg ten miles long, lost her fore-yard in the collission and was nearly submerged by the weight of Ice thai came aboard.

After that she leaked worse than ever and it required the best efforts of the crew of six men at the hand pumps to keep afloat. For three days the vessel tacked about the Falkland Islands, playing tag with the monocle as if he really liked It. a leading woman who can act, a French maid, who Is pretty, another actress who is statuesque and convincing In her mock ferocity, the Grand opera house this week is housing the. best' company that has been seen there for months and months, says the Los Angeles Express. "The Marriage of Kitty" is the name of the play.

It Is 'a comedy which is as keen in its conception and as cleverly worked out In Us detail as anything Clyde Fitch ever wrote. It is not a new play. It has served as the vehicle for stars, and It has been boiled down to a vaudeville skitlet. but it is being seen for the first time In Los Angeles tn its entirety. It makes the Grand blush for shame at its gory record, and puzzles the peanut gallery with its cleanliness and absence of horseplay.

The company is as good as the play. There are only six persons in the cast, but these six are a host, when compared with the dozens who appear in many of the more pretentious productions with pretentious prices attached. Harry B. Roche, who looks as Hon. Joseph Chamberlain probably did twenty or thirty years ago, is an actor all the war.

He never allows the comedy of the part to take his attention from the fact that he is playing the part of a British nobleman and fun with dignity is his maxim. Miss Florence Gear in the rie of the delightful Kitty Is pleasing to the eye. ear and mind. One wishes that Miss Hazel K. Chappie, who plays the French maid, had something more to do.

Miss Elsie Balrd. tall, handsome and dramatic, provides a striking background for the comedy. 'The Marriage of Kitty" will be seen at the Dorrls, Christmas afternoon and evening. Prices $1.50. $1.00 and 75c.

For the Orpheum is cold, despite the fact that it has one good stove. Given another stove and an all day's firing and the house ought to be entirely comfortable. If one more stove won't do the work, then there should be two or three more. My Wife's Family Is a musical farce all right with fun and situations and suggestions enough to run three or four comedies. There was a big house and every one present got his money's worth of laugh.

James L. McCabe. my wife's physician, William J. Maddern, my wife's husband; Charles J. Mitchell, my wife's father, and Rose L.

McCabe, my wife's mother, were all Immense. They are a quartette of huge fun makers. Mitch ell has a good voice, as has Margie Ryan. Little Miss Ryan Is Indeed quite the musical star of the cast. Miss Primrose as the actress is a dazzling dramatic school product in ner iirst appearance.

Later her costume tones down and her voice is heard to better advantage in a duet with Mitchell. The music of My Wife's Family is not the feature of the performance so much as its predominating ridiculousness. Its the light empty nothingness which has put Willie Shakespeare to the bad and has done for Ward and James. It Is of the Murray and Mack order with something more of a story to the book and a little less horse Play. I "The above attraction will be seen at the Dorris, Wednesday December 26th.

H. D. Underwood, who was In business for several years in Tucson, but who, for some time has been located in Los Angeles, is In the city and will remain for some time. Speaking of business conditions yesterday, Mr. Underwood suld that he was most favorably impressed with the outlook In He thinks It is no better anywhere, and it is certainly not nearly so good in Los Angeles.

He said that Investments here now were sure of paying a much better profit than any that could be made in Los Angeles. The-activity which has prevailed there for several years came to be the nature of a boom with the Inevitable' result that in the excitement values were punned too high. It will require some unexpected Incident to keep them at their present level. Los Angeles, said Mr. Underwood, has been very fortunate in such Incidents, but good fortune cannot be regularly-counted upon.

The building of Uw-Salt Lake road was a great thing for the city and before the effect of that Impetus had passed away there came the earthquake and fire at San Francisco which diverted from that town much capital and Investment which had been destined for it. It rather naturally went to Los 'Angeles. At the beginning. of the activity there and when it was at Its height, everybody was making money. It required no great capital to engage in the business of making money.

But as the crystallization proceeded these opportunities became fewer and fewer until now It requires a great deal of money to make a start there. Many an otherwise honest young man doesn't hesitate to steal a kiss. Chicago.
