A SCOT AT THE HEAD.

John \. Cairns, leader OF the siTKlng
miners in the Pittshurg district, is SEQ,
by birth, though he was brought to Amer
lea when a mere boy and has remained in
this country ever since.
Those who know him well speak of him
as man Of unusual energy and dctCrmi-
nation, as one who has the courage Of his
convictions and feels bound always to do
what he believes TO be right regardless Of
the opinions Of others Although he has
never before been intrustcd with the i'm
portant post of strike leader, he has been
prominent in the labor movement for
many years, and his services rs member Of
several most important conferences be
tween miners and operators have been
such as to win for himself the rcputc of
having rare executive ability. More than
once, too, he has steadfastly opposed tho
beginning of a strike when he thought it
i'll advised, and because Of this his fellow
miners place implicit confidence in his
judgment and fidelity.
John \. Cairns is 30 years of age. He
was born in the small Ayrshire village Of
Boston. His first homo in the United
States was in Beaver county, Pa, where
his parents settled on their arrival. a
year later they removed to Washington

Small Boys With Big Salaries.

Among the jockeys there are many with
incomes above 81. 0O0 and most of the
riders range in age from ID TO 20 years.
Some of them before arriving at their
majority get enormous salaries although
there has been gross eXaggCratiOn in many
of the stories published on this particular.
The leading jockey of the time is undoubt-
eddy Fred Taral, who rides for the kCenes
at big salary and makes a small fortune
annually besides on his outside mounts.
1t is safe to say his income is not less
than $2lO Next to Taral in the mat
ter of earnings comes little Griffin, who
was recently engaged at q salary of SIG,
500. SimmS the jockey for the Dryers,
makes $40 900 or Sl2, 900 a year, and so
does Doggett, another crack eastern jockey.
Lamley probably earns $1,000 or $4,000.
Alonzo Clayton is the best paid western
jockey and must give his , per cent on
So, 600 or 81, surplus a year. Midge-
ley may get So, 900, and little Perkins does
not fall far short of this figure. No other
persons so young and with so little ability
of an extraordinary nature get the money
reward that falls to the lot of the jockey.
In the trotting world a few Of the best
drivers make more than $4,000 year,
but there arc not many of them, and none
of them gets the salary of a Taral or q
Griffin

lNEZ MECUSKER.
A Beautiful American Woman Who Is q
Famous Ballad Singer.

1t is always pleasant to note the success
of an American. and more especially of an
American woman. Inez Mecusker is a
native of Pennsylvania, in which state she
was born on the Fourth of July, 1869.
She has a very sweet voice, which has been
highly cultivated and is Of high register.
1t is lyrical in character and especially
adapted for ballad singing, in the render
ing of which she stands almost unrivaled
on the stage today.
In 1888 Miss Mocusker accepted the po-
sition of soprano soloist of the Schubert
quartet, leaving it the following season to
form an opera company OF her own, in
which she starred. In the fall of 1890 she
became a member of the Boston Lyceum
company, but soon left that organization
to go on starring tour in her own COM

virtue of which he is now strike leader,
was quite in the line of promotion. 1t is
largely due to his efforts that the miners

shortly put the district in better shape
than any other in the national organiza-

The reason why they arc thin
is because their food does not

Cod-liver Oil is the most easily

HOW NEWSPAPERS ARE READ.

One Of the features Of the open

Park Institute in England was an
address by President Clifford on.
How 10 Read the Newspapers .
The subject Is g somewhat novel
one but particularly interesting il
these days when the newspaper
plays such sn important part in
the daily life OF the individual.
Dr. Clifford opened his address by
laying down the principle that
ive-sixths OF the literary food now
comes through the newspaper
press Men have their special
newspapers, and not only men, but
women and boys and girls have
newspapers devoted to their enter

night and except in the outposts o
civilization. it is almost impos
sible for q person to go to bee
without a knowledge of tn,
leading events of the day
throughout the world. DR. Clifford
says that the great books now AT,
read only by a few. The life Of tn,
present day is too crowded for mer
to read Sponsors "Faerie Queen
or to go through the twelve book:
of Paradise Lost" A great book
requires trained mind and time
to peruse it, and trained minds
among the reading public of the
present day are few. The lecturer
remarked that it is pleasing
thought that the newspaper is on
the side of justice and has not only
literary form but also noble enthus-
iasms, and is prepared 10 undertake
a crusade in behalf of the weak and
suffering members of the commu-
nifty. He paid due honor to the
energy and sincerity which mark
the work of the daily press, as we'll
as its daring and brilliant achieve
ments.
The newspaper reading public he
divided into four classes. The
man who reads for news; the
other who reads from a business
standpoint and pays special atten-
ton TO the lads" and wants
then the man who reads for
the sensations and declares
there is nothing in the paper I'M
less some one has been murdered
or some tragedy has occurred; and
then the man of leisure, who reads
his newspaper much as he smokes
his pipe, and who dreams over the
most exciting sporting events, and
only treasures the gossip that he
wants to hear. Finally there is the
man like DR.. Clifford. who reads
the papers for the. picture OF daily
life which they give and gathers
lessons from the evil as well as the
good in the world. DR.. Clifford is
apparently a man who recognizes
hat the office of q newspaper is
not to suppress the news, but rather
% tell the story of passing events, |
whether they are good, bad or in
different. He recognizes that while
he paper has a responsibility in
he character of the news which it
cts forth, there is also a certain
responsibility on the part of the
eader in determining to what use
lie puts the material which he
eads.

BEET SUGAR FACTORIES.
Claus Spreekels May Erect Two on

Agents, Honolulu, II. !.

Claus Spreckels May Erect Two OF
the Coast.
Since his return from Europe
Claus Spreckels has been talking
of establishing one or more new
beet-sugar factories in this State
says the San Francisco Examiner
of November IA.
Last week he visited several pro-
prosed sites. but decided upon
nothing definitely. The sites Wis
tied were near Woodland and
Sacramento.
The gentleman is secretive as to
his intentions, fearing that if it
should become known that he
was after this or that body of
land the owners of the property
would hold their property at fig
ures much higher than it's real
value.
From his son, John d. Spreck-
els. and from other sources it was
learned that he expects to invest
about S1,0O0.OOO. .
The elder Spreckels believes
that the erection of more beet
sugar factories will do much to
promote the growth and solid
prosperity of the State. He says
that it will encourage others to
follow his example and invest
their idle capital in ways that
will benefit California.
John ID. Spreckels when seen
last night confirmed the report of
his fathers proposed investments.
The old gentleman" he said, lis
full of vim. He is enthusiastic
in his efforts to create new enter
prises which will be of benefit to
the State. He is very much inter
ested in the beet-sugar industry.
Since his return from Europe he
has expressed himself in favor of
building one or more factories.
He does not know himself where
they will be. 1 left him in Stock
ton last Friday. He then told
me that he intended to visit sew
