That Is true OF ordinary jobs. Brains

NARROWING THE WALRUS.
A Dangerous Proceeding when Done
from Boat.

Dangerous Proceeding when Done
from Boat.
The habits of the Atlantic walrus are
quite similar to those Of the Pacific
species, but. according to all accounts,
the former is possessed of degree of
courage and fighting temper quite I'M
known to the other. On land the I'M
happy sea-horse is as helpless as a
snail, and any clodhopper can blunder
up and plunge spear into his vitals,
or shoot him. But the Esquimau
hunter, who takes frail skin boat,
harpoon and line, and seeks him in his
native element, is a sportsman who
gives him fair show, and chance to
strike back at his only mortal foe.
To harpoon big walrus and dis
patch him is no child's play. says st.
Nicholas, particularly when there is a
he'd of sylnpathizcrs on hand to watch
the performance, and possibly take
part in it. The hunter has only one
thing to fear, which is that the huge
creatures will attack his boat, and, by
hooking their tusks overits side. either
swarap it or smash it. This has actually
occurred several times in the pursuit Of
the Atlantic walrus And it is quite
enough to make any man a trit1e nerv-
Gus when a dozen tusked leviathans,
weighing from half ton to ton each,
full weight, rise out of the vastly deep,
surround his boat at close quarters, and
threaten to climb aboard. 1t is then
time to pipe all hands on deck to repel
boarders, and turn the Winchesters
loose.

that the action is SO light that she will
make mistakes every minute. So the
typewriter doctor is called to put the
machine back precisely as it was.
There is a large life insurance build
ing up town where regular call is left
for the typewriter repairer. He APP
pears usually at one o'clock and puts
in the rest of his day regulating the
machines. Sometimes he does not get
around until the middle of the after
noon, and then there is great call
for him. Some one of the one hundred
and fifty machines in the building is
sure to be out of order, and the oper-
ator must sit idle until the repairs are
made. The repairer must carry ink
ribbons and all the smaller parts of
type machines, for there is no telling
what part may have yielded to the
strain of vigorous hands. There are
over one hundred men employed in this
way in New York city. For the most
part they are in the pay of the type
writing establishments, and are sent
out by them. A few work independent
ly. but the work does not pay them
then very well, and they finally give it
up and go in the employ of the large
concerns.
1t is said by the machine doctors that
the typewriters are as sensitive as hui
man beings and know who is handling
them. A good machine that has been
properly treated ''sulks" when new
and unskilled hands take hold of it,
and sometimes it refuses to work. AS
soon as it feels the regular stroke of
its own operator it is all right. This
is a typewriter's superstition. And
strange to say it turns cut in accord
ance with actual fact.
All sorts of things happen to type
writing machines. Sometimes they
fall on the floor as the Office boy moves
them for the sweep woman to do her
work. Occasionally they are expert
mented upon by the same small boy to
their own great detriment; and, again,
they are treated to doses of Oil of sort
not recommended as good for their in
ternal machinery. Nobody seems to
reason that the machines are valua BILE
and that new one means something
like a OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES bill for the
owner of the office.
"Why do the typewriting machine
companies keep repairers?" was asked
of a man who makes business of keep
ing certain kind of machine in order.
Because they are obliged to do so
to defend the reputation of their ma
Chimes" replied the repairer. Sup
pose new machine got out of order
and the company would not repair it
unless at great cost. Why. that ma
chine company would get the blacklist
kind of black eye from all who Wis
tied the office where the defective ma
chine rested. They are obliged to do
it for their own sake

ARGENTlNE'S FINANCES.
The Mere Interest on Its Debt Exceeds
It's Total Income.

L
It's Total Income.
The Argentine Republic, like our
own. is d federal one, consisting of
fourteen autonomous states. At the
present time, says the New York Post,
the republic is bankrupt, and thirteen
OF it's constituent states are in the same
condition. It's population of 4,5OO 900
averages but four inhabitants to the
square mile, 100000 occupying the
single province of Buenos Ayres, but
the various employees of the national
and state governments number 50,O0O
not including persons employed by the
different municipalities. In several Of
the state governments the entire rev.
enue is not equal to the interest upon
their debts, and in several the payment
of salaries appears to exhaust the en-
tire income. Even in the case of the
national government the salary ac-
count requires about One-third of the
total revenue. If the revenue of the
fourteen states be added together they
amount to about $4,000, 900, which is
$500 COO less than the interest due on
their external indebtedness. to say
nothing of their internal obligations.
The revenue of the national govern
ment is estimated to be about 80, 030,-
900. and it i, claimed that the cxpendi-
ture IS les. than this. The obligations,
however. amount to some $3.50. 000, 600
or $500 03J eco. the interest upon which
would exhaust half the revenues were
it not 80 applied. Obligations that do
not bear interest, chiefly in the shape
Of paper money passing at one-third
its face value, are perhaps equal in
amount to the bonded debt Many Of
the states appear to be making no at
tempt to pay their creditors. Some, as
well as the general government, have
made compositions in which the chief
ingredients are delays and promises,
although there is a modicum of per-

Indiana contributed her thousands OF bravo
soldiers to the war, and no state bears q bet
ter record in that respect than it does. In
literature it is rapidly acquiring an
enviable place. In war and literature
Solomon Sol Yewell well known as a writer as
SOL, has won an honorable position. Dur
ing the late war he was a member of Co M
I'd. N. Y. Cavalry and of the 18th Indiana In,
fantry Volunteers. Regarding an Important
circumstance he writes as follows:
several of US old veterans here are using

A full band of music in one man
was one OF the side shows brought to
town by the republican circus.
Mayor Emory c. Graves and Hon. H
V. Fisher, of Geneseo, came down to
help the latter's boom for senator.
The chilly weather served one good
purpose at least-it kept Senator

by the way, is a son in-law of Hon.
G.. W. Vinton, is present in
behalf of Billy Mason's candidacy for
United States senator.
Andrew Donaldson. of Rural, and
l.. ID. Nudge, Of Taylor Ridge. came
in to lend little democratic dignity
to the occasion. Some of the dele
gates wanted to compromise on
Nudge as a candidate for sheriff after
looking him over, until they discov-
cred his political predictions.
Hon. Samuel Erickson. member OF

present as the mouthpiece of Henry

in his candidacy for the state treas

doing his duty faithfully among the
delegates.
The A. P. A. wing of the party
held an 'open" meeting behind
closed doors last night, and decided
upon a course of action. There was
considerable complaint over the man
ner in which the minority element
manipulated the Rock Island eau
cuses. but it was decided not to make
n fight against the seating of their
delegates in the convention.

The new uniforms for the officers
OF the Second battalion. naval mill
tia, Of Moline, have arrived. The
privatcs' uniforms will follow as soon
as they can be made up.
Lieut.. Commander Daggctt has
received. through Adj. -Gen. Oren-
dorff. communication from Acting
Secretary Of the Navy McAdoo, stat
ing that a ship will be placed at the
disposal Of the battalion either in
July. August or September, for a
four days cruise, the state to fur
nish blankets, etc. The government
can supply the rations at 80 cents a
day, but the expense must be borne
by the state. Adj. Gen. Orendorff
writes. in reply to Commander Dag
gett's inquiry. that the state has
made no appropriation for the pur-
pose, but that il the battalion desires
to avail itself of the cruise, the men
will have to pay for their own trans
portation, equipment and rations.

torpedo boat for 10 days. which Sec
rotary McAdoo volunteered to do.
Commander Daggett now believes
the chances for even this are slim.
The boat is not armed and will not
be before she reaches the Atlantic,
and moreover she does not pass under
government control until after q sat
isfactory trial trip.
Commander Daggctt has put in a
requisition for about 81, 200 worth of
