The Whisky Trust Collapse.


About Jan. the stock of the Distllling
and Cattle Feeding Company the whisky
trust sold at 721S. On the last day of the
month it had dropped to 36% In other
words, there had been a collapse in the
stock that knocked off nearly half its
value.
The story leading up 10 the collapse is
brief but interesting. The trust people had
great hopes that the proposition TO increase
the tax on whisky from 80 cents to 81 25
per gallon would be opposed by congress.
The Secretary Of the Treasury had recon-
mended the increase, and so had the oom-
missioner il internal revenue.
A bill for the purpcss was in
the House committee on ways and
means, and altogether the outlook for the
advance was promislng-sO the whisky ring
people thought. They, therefore, set to
work to corner the whisky market, their
own output and the output Of the anti trust
distilleries, In anticipation Of the increased
tax. They bought out three or four anti
trust distilleries and ran them and the ones
they previously owned 20 their fullest capa-
city, besides buying every barrel OF the
stuff they could get hold of. The prospect
i've profit OF 35 cents or more per gallon
was too great an opportunity for gathering
in millions to be let slip, so it was worked
for all it was worth. The trusts 81, SEQ, 900
fund for the redemption OF rebate certia
Gates went to pay for distillerieS and whisky
purchased until there was none Of it left.
Other reserve funds went the same wav.
until ct a meeting few days ago the di-
rectors of the concern founc themselves in
possession of an enormous stock of whisky,
buS-nO cash assets and the rebate certificates
falling due In large amounts. And
to make matters worse, it was Their fully
realized that the Scott bill TO increase the
revenue tax was still Enacted upon in the
committee of ways and means. and that it
would stay there. After the meeting the
price of whisky was reduced Is cents per
gallon. The trust realized that it had gone
wrong, and made an effort to get out of the
hole as best it could. But 1t was too late
The street" had found out something of
the trusts secrets, and the "slump" fol
lowed.
There will be little sympathy felt for the
people who engineered the deal and lost.
They were greedy and INSCRIPTIONS, and
merit their punishment.

Fate of IncenG.aries in Japan.

The incendiary's lot in Japan is not a
happy one. When caught he is at once
handed over to the excutioneer. BY this
official the culprit is buried in the ground
up to the neck. A cross-cut saw laid on
the ground close by ready for use, and
then the executioner goes away for few
days on other duties. During the inter
val any passer-by is at liberty to assist
the excutioner in his duties by taking a
few cuts with the saw across the plis-
oner's neck, When the executioner re-
turns, if there is any necessity for it. he
leisurely completes the task by saving
the mans neck from his shoulders. 1t
is then fastened to pole and placed on
exhibition in the neighboring village or
town. The custom, it is claimed. is
calculated greatly to discourage the
practice of setting property afre. i New

This model, which is large scientific

face of the earth spread out on an area
of about thirty square feet, the ocean
and seas being shown by actual
water. Small streams of water are
elected through pipes under the
model so that the whole body OF
water moves exactly as the ocean cur
rents do.
The direction of the currents is
shown distinctly by white powder on
the face of the water. Near the
model will be placed large map CIV

Dutch kloompers.

One of the queerest sights which saw
in Europe was a row Of wooden shoes
outside the door of Dutch farm house
on Saturday morning. There were the
big-sizcd shoes of the farmer himself,
the middle-sized shoes of his good vraow,
and several small sized shoes of the
children; and all the line had been
scrubbed and freshly whitewashcd in
preparation for Sunday. There are many
kinds of wooden shoes worn by peasants
in Europe, but none are more clumsy
and heavy than the ''kloompers" of the
Hollanders. They are oat-shaped with
high wooden projections to the heels,
and curious little upward twist to the
toes, like the PROV of a Chinese Junk.
But heavy and awkward as the shoes are,
the Dutch children run about as lightly
as if they were shod in Cinderella's glass
slippers, and do not seem to object in the
least to the clicking sound made by the
shoes on the pavement. One of the most
extraordinary sights in the world is line
of little Dutch boys playing eap-frog in
their great noisy wooden kloompers.
Having formed row of frogs from
one end of their village to the other, the
boys begin to jump in the usual agile
way of the players of the lively game.
AS soon as the line is in motion most
tremendous sound startles the village.
The oldest inhabitant can hardly "hear
himself think, " but he knows that the
noise is not thunder; it is only the rattle
of the boys wooden shoes as they strike
the hard brick paved street. - Harper's

might be actually cured, Or so much
alleviated as scarcely to shorten life.

more are awaiting the verdict of their

who have tried the exercise are en-
thusiastic as to it's benefits, and say
that the tired feeling caused by close
confinement in the store soon gives
place to one of elasticity and fresh
