THE RUBBER INDUSTRY.

The rubber industry of the United
States has no rival in foreign countries.
There is something like $75, 900, 900 in
vested in the business of manufacturing
rubber goods, S3O,0OO,0OO of which is
confined TO the rubber boot and shoe
industry. The total number of en-
ployes is placed at Is, 900, and the total
number of factories at 100. According
to a recent census bulletin the value of
the annual product is $3.50, 900, 600.
Some $4,000 tons of raw rubber are i'm
ported every year, which, when COM
bined with other materials in manufac-
turing, amount to3O0, 600 TONS The mar
ket price Of the raw materials has been
forced up to S1.25 per pound, while six
years ago, the price was scarcely fifty
cents. In consequence of the advance
in price, several substances have been
prepared as substitutes for il, of which
celluloid is the most important.

A Patent r-COupIer.
from the Detroit Free Press !


There will never come a time when
the headquarters Office of a railroad line
viii not receive at least one visit per
week from the man with patent car
coupler. During the last fifteen years
he has called about four times a week,
and that average is beng maintained in
a way TO wear ont hall carpets as fast as
manufacturers can desire. The car
couplers are not all alike, but the in
ventors are. The programme Is as re-
gular as if it had been adopted by
large majority. The inventor asks for
the president of the road and is shown
to the office:
"Good morning. Is the presi-
dent in ?"
'fNo, sir; he won't be in until after
dinner. Anything special %
"Wel, rather special. [ have in

four doors down the hall.
The inventor opens the fourth door
and clerk inquiries:
"What Is your business %
"Wel, [ had a lame foot last summer
and couldn't do much ofany work. and so
set about it and"

The third opens to reveal an attendant

"Your patent car-coupler. We were
expecting you. Go down to the yard
master"
Everybody in our town says this is
the biggest thing ever invented, and I
reckon -"
Fright this way to go down to the
yard masters office"
The yard-master isn't in. The train
dispatcher won't listen. The gate-keep-
er has no time. The depot policeman
may look at the invention some other
day. When he entered the depot with
that patent coupler under his arm his
mind was made up to let Michigan Cen
trail or Lake Shore put it on their cars
for $4,000 cash down. Two hours
have done the business for him, and as
he starts up town the coupler is reck-
lessly thrown under seat In the wait
ing-room and the inventor hopes from
the tops of his boots that somebody viii
steal it before he gets back.

a YEAR OF LIFE SAVING,

The ife-saving service, like the United
States fish commission, is government
tai enterprise which deserves unstinted
praise, both for the efficiency and for the
economy of its work. The general sup
erintendent of the life saving service at
tributes its high efficiency to its COM
plete exemption from political influences,
and it furnishes a striking example to
the people of the advantage of conduct
ing the business of the government &C
cording to the strictest business princi-
pies. During the year which ended May
LIST, 4,012 lives and property worth S.,
671, 700 were saved. and yet the cost of
the service is less than $500, 900 annual
". There were seventy-one more disas-
tiers than in the previous year, but the
amount of property lost was less,
aud the number of lives lost was only
seven greater. Besides the vessels which
suffered actual disasters there were 337
worked off when stranded and 125 more
were warned by patrol signals when in
danger of being stranded. OF the 1914
stations 149 are on the Atlantic coast,
and eighty of these are in the third and
fourth districts, which extend from New
port to Cape May.

+" SOJOURNER TRUTH"

One of the most remarkable women
and quaintest characters of our time has
just been removed from the world by
the death at Battle Greek of " Sojourner
Truth" the colored centenarian. As
lecturer she has been heard with
rapt attention in almost every consider
able town in the republic, but the free.
dom she has enjoyed IN intercourse with
the prominent people of the last half
century, and the influence she has ex-
erted by her homely expressions of
opinions, founded mainly upon vigor-
Gus common sense, have made her an
unique figure in the history of the na-
ton. She was In what is usually called
middle age when she received her free
dom by the act of 1917, emancipating
the slaves of New York, and from that
time until the proclamation of Presi-
dent Lincoln she was one of the most
forcible advocates of abolition on the
platform. Her interviews with Lincoln,
into whose presence she was frequently
admitted when men of note were de-
MED, would furnish a pathetic chapter
in the history of that great man, and
faithful biography of her would include
something from the life of almost every
leading public man of the century.
Like the songs of her race, characters
resembling hers are fading away, but
the record of them will not cease to be
an interesting feature of the history of

A Better Type.
[From the Craftsman. !

From the Craftsman.
1t is refreshing now and then to hear
of acts of kindness on the part of en-
ployers, which, though rare, prove that
some men do not deem it necessary to
acquire wealth by altogether shutting
their heart against the kindly feeling
which the right thinking man should
have for his neighbors. There are en-
ployers-perhaps many of them, al
though it is not apparent-whoc consider
their workmen In one sense partners in
their business, and never neglect by
kindly acts and friendly sympathy to
show that they take 8 sincere interest in
their welfare They show this not alone
by kindness and good treatment, but In
that most substantial manner, through
the medium of hard cash. Remember
Childs, the prosperous owner of the
Philadelphia Ledger, who promptly de-
cllned to take advantage of untoward
circumstances which compelled the
printers of Philadelphia to reduce
their scale from 45 to 40 cents per
thousand. Mr.. Childs remarked when
the reduction was brought to his atten-
ton, that he considered his printers en-
titled to all that was being paid to them
and instructed his foreman to estimate
and make out the bills at As cents
thousand. And that is still the price
paid on the Ledger. Such an employer
surely deserves his prosperity.
The pToprietors of the Evening Star,
of this city, also have a record they may
well be proud of, as regards their treat
ment of old and faithful employees. No
salaried man IN their employ has ever
been locked for days time lost by
sickness, although in one case at least
such illness extended over year, and
we know Of our own knowledge that at
one time, for about six consecutive
months, not less than $88 week was
paid out every Saturday to faithful men
who were slowly nearing the grave after
years of faithful service. We honor the
proprietors of the Star for the spirit
which prompts such action, and are glad
of the opportunity to publish it to the
world.
1t is a notable fact, by the way, that
the fullest measure of prosperity gener-
ally rewards the enterprise of such en-
ployers, while large proportion of the
skinRints, who would grind their work
men down to pauper wages, sooner or
later are overtaken by what they may
call hard luck" but which more prop,
erlY may be termed Sc retribution. -

AN IMPORTANT QUESTION.
Cotton Merchants Troubled Over the
Action of the Texas Pacific Railway.

New YORK, December 6.-The men,.
bers of the cotton exchange are greatly
troubled by the refusal of the Texas Pa.
cific Railway Company to honor certain
bills OF ladlng issued by the company's
agent at Sherman, Tex, for about 1,400
bales OF cotton. The Blue Line Trans
portation Company, it may be remem-
bered, recently caused a sensation in the
business community by similar action,
but the Blue Line reconsidered it's
refusal add paid the $4,000 called for.
1t was the first time bills of lading
from responsible company had ever
been called IN question as first-class col
laterals. The occurrence of a second in
stance following SO closely upon the first
has caused great alarm, for the reason it
is feared that banks which have hereto
lore advanced money on bills of lading
at low rate Of discount, and without
hesitation will refuse to take them as
collateral. This would almost paralyze,
many branches of business in which the.
obtaining of loans in this way has grown.
to be a necessity. The present compli--
cation grows out of fraud practiced
upon the Texas Pacific Railway by the
company's freight agent at Sherman,
who, 1T is said, absconded on the 25th
of November defaulter to the amount
OF Sl2,0 900. It was he who issued the
fraudulent bills, in conspiracy, it is
claimed, with cotton buyer of Dallas.
who has just been arrested, charged with
swindling to the extent of more than
$1,000 under forty-fiFe affidayits,
representing as many alleged vic
TINS of the fraud, all of whom ap-
pear to have advanced money on
the worthless bills of lading.
naturally believing them genuine.
Among the sufferers are cotton firms in
New York, Philadelphia, New Orleans.
and Baltimore, and cotton mills in Fall
River and other New England cities.
About $50, QUO, or nearly the full value
OF 1, 400 bales of cotton, was advanced
by various wealthy firms in the city,
among whom were Fatwan & Co.,
Herman Brothers. and Lehman
Brothers. Having accepted the bills
of lad1ng IN good faith, the in
dor8ers naturally look to the Texas Pa
cifo to protect the innocent holders of
the paper. $50 far, " said Mr.. Solomon
Ranger, to day, "we have got no salts
faction from the railway company. Our
firm and others who have suffered have
telegraphed to Dallas for particulars.
We have not yet received them. When
we do we shall probably press our de-
mands upon the company" It is said
that the banks will refuse to lend money
on bills of lading unless the transporta-
ton lines will pledge themselves not to
repudiate them.

Experiments in Drunkenness.
From the st. James Gazette.I

from the st. James GaZette.1
Surely cases of drunkenness are COM
mon enough in England to render it IN
necessary to produce intoxication by
special means with a view to scientific
experiments. However this may be, q
correspondent of the Standard calls at
tention this morning to the reckless
fashion In which DR.. Richards mot to be
COMPOUNDED with DR.. Benjamin Richard
sony has been administering brandy to
habitual drunkards, moderate drinkers
and habitual abstainers in order to test
the effects of alcohol in frightening or
lowering the temperature of the body.
To make an habitual drunkard "dead
drunk" twelve ounces of brandy in one
dose were found sufficient, and so hard
ened was the confirmed inebriate to the
effect of spirits that no reduction of his
temperature was caused. A boy who
had been in the habit of drinking was
treated in divided doses with from one
to eight ounces of brandy for week and
then with twelve-ounces daily for three
days. How his temperature was affected
is not stated. but it is interesting to find
that through medical skill this original
~ sober boy was enabled to take daily
his twelve ounces of brandy-iust one
bottleful, that is TO say.

CRIME IN TRE OLD WORLD.

The crimes committed every week In
this country make an appalling list.
Through the columns of an enterprising
press all the frightful details are brought
to the knowledge of the reading public;
and We are apt to conclude that more
revolving deeds are perpetrated by the
criminal class here than In any other
civilized land. A different opinion would
prevail, probably, if we could have an
opportunity TO look upon the bloody an
nails of Great Britain and the continent.
Comparatively few Americans read for
eign newspapers, and even these few do
not, as rule, pay attention to the Grim
inal calendar. The truth is that the
United States presents no worse record
of horrors than England, and England
is no worse In this respect than other
European states. Investigation would
fully substantiate this assertion. Only
a short tine ago, according to London
letter, the whole English nation was
standing aghast at the revelation made
at the recent Stafford assizes of the con-
ditl0n of affairs IN what Is known as
"The Black Country" Black it ap-
pears to be In more respects than one.
The judge, Sir John Pearson, in charg-
ing the grand jury, said he regretted to
see the number of serious and
grievous charges of assault upon
females to be found In the
calendar. There was, he observed, no
circumstances wanting that could add
