card TIMES ABROAD.
ALL EUROPE HAS FELT THE BUSI-
NESS DEPRESSION.
But Everything Is Coming About All
Right, Especially In Our Own Dear
Old America.
From the st. Louis Republic.

From the st. Louis Republic.
This is not the only country that has
had period of business depression re-
Gently. Several others have undergone
an experience similar to our own. Eng
land is of the number. While not
so severe as ours, her business troubles
began year earlier and lasted longer.
But, like the United States, that coun-
try has about recovered. Times are
much better than they were year ago.
The people are consequently both buy
ing and selling more than they did in
1894 The report of the British Board
of Trade for July shows big gain in
England's foreign trade that month.
Her exports increased nearly II and her
imports more than 10 per cent, as COM
pared with the business reported in
September, 1894. This is all the more
noticeable from the result in June-a
decrease in both exports and imports.
In March and May a slight gain was
made in each, but February and April
both brought losses, as did also January
in imports.
England's increase in exports is due
mainly to heavier buying in the United
States, China, Argentina, Chill, Mexico,
Australia and South Africa. 1t denotes
greater bussiess activity in each of the
countries named. South Africa has a
big mining craze at present, which ex-
plains her large purchases, particularly
of mining machinery.
England's 10 per cent. increase In
imports has been of great benefit to the
United States. Her heaviest buying is
done in this country, and we have
special reasons, therefore, to be glad of
the fact that her people are again in
condit ton to do a good deal of buying.
We want their custom and are glad to
see it increase. The United Kingdom
buys as much from us as all the rest of
the world put together. OF the 1886
bales of our new cotton crop shipped
abroad last week, 1910 went to En-
gland.
Up to Aug. 1st we exported this year
81, 900. 900 bushels of wheat. The Unit
ed Kingdom took 28,000,000 bushels.
We sold in the same time 8,014,00O bar
rels of flour, England taking 4,546,O0O ?
We exported q little over 100000
bushels of corn, Is, 100000 going to En-
gland. Our cotton exports in the seven
months amounted. to $4,000 bales.
England got 100000. We sold 158,861
cattle abroad. England was the pur-
chaser of 1876, O30. These are only few
of her purchases in the United States
this wear. She was our main customer
for sheep, books, carriages, sewing ma.
chimes, copper, fruit, hops, builders
hardware, machinery, leather, boots and
shoes, turpentine, rosln, tar, cotton seed
oil cake, canned beef. fresh beef, bacon,
hams, pork, lard, butter, cheese, to2acco.
timber, lumber, shingles, slaves, fuTni~
lure and a number of other articles.
The United Kingdom buys more than
| twice-some years three and four times
as much from Us as she sells to us.
Her annual purchases here amount to
more than $500, 600 when business
with her IS good. ] ct us rejoice over
the return of her prosperity.

CHICAGO, ILL, Oct. 4.-When Prtrick
Carroll got home from work Wednesday
night he was met in his own house by the
biggest surprise of his life. During the
afternoon his estimable wife had given
birth to four children two boys and two
girls.
Pat is a laborer, unfortunately out Of
permanent work, who live at No. 1865
West Fourteenth street, and has four
children living besides the new corners.
The story of his remarkable fortune in
family, in Pats own words, is as follows:

ALBANY, GA, Oct. THE little town
of AGREE, on the Brunswick and Western
railroad, furnishes the most remarkable
political incident of the age.
There are forty voters in the little viii
lage and last Saturday they held an cleo
ton for municipal officers. There was
only one ticket in the field, it is true,
but when they lined up to vote under the
operation of the new registration law, it
was found that thirty-nine men out OF
the forty had failed to qualify and there
fore could not vote. The only man who
qualified was Mr. Beta Hill, the candi-
date for mayor. Upon him devclved
the responsibility of the entire election.
His vote was the one counted and 1t
elected the entire board of town officers,

Observance of the saDDarn.

There was the minister of Tweeds-
muir, who on certain Sabbath found
a salmon stranded in shallow water,
and who, being unable conscientiously
to take it out on such day, built a
hedge of stones around it, and, return
ing on the morrow, claimed his prize.
There was the old farmer, who could
not go to the kirk because he had neg
lected to shave on the Saturday night,

EGG MATCHING IN EGYPT.
A Method of Incubation Which Is as Old
as the Christian Era.

Among the fellahs of modern Egypt a
process of incubation is in use which
has been handed down from antiquity,
perhaps from the time of DiOdOrus, who,
40 years before the Christian era, said
that the Egyptians brought eggs to ma
turity with their own hands and that
the chickens Matched thus were not in
ferior to those Matched in the usual way.
The process is described in Nature.
Ovens are built, consisting of cham
Der about / feet square and 4 feet high,
with a fat roof. Above this another
chamber, 8 feet high, it built, with
vaulted roof, having a small opening in
the middle to admit light. Below
larger opening communicates with the
room underneath. In cold weather both
rooms are kept closed and a lamp is left
burning in each, entrance then being
through the lower chamber.
When the oven is ready, the prOprle-
tor goes to the neighboring villages and
collects eggs. They are placed on mats,
strewn with bran, in the lower chamber.
Fires are then lighted in troughs along
the sides Of the upper room, the eggs be-
ing in two lines Immediately below.
The fires are lighted twice day, the
first dying out at noon and the other
burning from to s i'll the evening. The
first batch of eggs is left for half day
in the warmest place and then it makes
way for the next, until all have been
warmed This process is kept up for six
days, when the eggs are examined care
fully in strong light. Those that are
clear are cast aside. Those that are
cloudy are put back in the oven for an
other four days They are then removed
for five days to another chamber, where
there are no fires, but the air is excluded.
After this they are placed an inch or two
apart and continually turned, this last
stage taking six or seven days.
The eggs are examined constantly by
being held against the upper eyelid to
reveal if they are warmer than the hu-
man skin. The whole, process lasts Fl
days, but the thin shelled eggs often
hatch in 49, The heat required is sc f.
Excessive heat is undesirable.

THE EVER PRESENT FOOL.
This One WAS an Escort of The Liberty
Eel Down south.

Ball Down south.
Whenever or wherever there is popu-
lar demonstration of any kind in which
the people of the north and south are
brought together in sprit of peaceful
determination, there appears to be no
such thing as leaving out the fool. He
is sure to be there, and may be depend
ed upon to show up, and get in his
work at the climax of enthusiasm.
The ever-present fool came along with
tn distinguished company that left
Philadelphia, the other day, as an escort
of the liberty bell on It's journey to
Atlanta. And at Petersburg, Va, he
got in his work. Leaning from the
platform of the car on which the bell
was rugged, he lifted a small negro baby
from the arms of its mother, wrapped it
in the American flag, and seated it upon
the beam from which the bell was
hung.
If there was any significance attach
ing to the act at all, Sas between the
north and the south, it was direct
Insult to the south, and especially to the
people of Petersburg, who had assem-
bled to welcome the northeners and pay
loyal tribute to the liberty bell A
press dispatch reports that the incident
sent chill through the residents, and
although there were no Kisses or other
demonstrations of dissatisfaction many
ofithem turned on their heels and walked
away.
