He Had His Suspicious.

a correspondent says that the late
Isman Pasha was petulantly suspicious
of everybody with whom he had deal
ings. On one occasion when he had
been advised by Jules Ferry, then the
French premier, to visit London in or
der to enlist the support of the British
government in his scheme to GUST his
son, Tewfk, at Cairo, he showed a new
high hat to friend with the remark:
Ferry says should not go to London
in fez, it's too oriental. He recon-
mended me to his halter, and the pig
has charged me forty francs forthis
thing. suspect Ferry has a commits

A STRANGE ORNAMENT.


The Editor Thought 1t Was the Artists
Wheel. ~ !
An amusing little incident, connected
with the celebrated George Cruikshank,
is related by Edmund Yates in his
"Fifty Years of London Life" It was
at the time that Mr.. Frank Smedley
was editor Of periodical called Cruik-
shanls Magazine, which hourished
only short time. :"Es,,
Mr.. Yates says that an interview be-
tween Cruilzshank and Smedley was
very comic sight for a looker-on. The
old artist would bounce about the
room, illustrating by violent action and
gesture everything he said, wholly un-
restrained by fear Of becoming gro
tesque. The little editor, screwed up
in his wheel chair, peered at his visitor
out Of the corners of his small eyes, and
strongly appreciated every item of the
performance.
''One warm morning." says Mr.. Yates,
"Crriilzsl1anlz arrived in Jermyn street,
and pulled a chair in front of Smed-
ley's desk, being evidently full Of bust
ness. The old mans chevelure in his
later days was always of IN extraordi-
nary kind, long wisps of gray hair
being brought from the back of his
head over the scalp, and secured there
with narrow elastic band; but in adj
dition tosthis, on this occasion, Smed-.55
ley perceived that Cruikshanlk had q
small perforated bone wheel fixed in
the center of his forehead. = ~ n s s56sss
$50 fascinated was Smedley by this
extraordinary sight that he could not
withdraw his eyes from it; and at last
Cruikshanlz, finding his hosts gaze.
stonily fixed on one spot throughout
the interview, testify demanded what
he was staring at.
.~".Nothing,' replied Smedley, trying
to excuse himself; but immediately
after the little wheel became detached
and fell on the, floor. -, ~. - =
You've dropped something said
Cruikshank, poking after it with his
stick. ="
"'I? No, you,' said his host. s.. I.
'Nonsense!' cried the irasciblc
George, who had now picked it. up.
Nonsense! What do you think I could
do with thing like this?' -, $
"'Au know is that for the last half
hour it has been sticking in the middle
OF your Torch cad, returned frank. !
Impossible, sir! quite impossible!
roared Cruikshank. ~s-.s
Eventually it appeared that the
little wheel was ventilator, which
had slipped from its original position in
the crown of Cruikshank's hat, and
stuck with the heat on his forehead. {"

COMMERCE AT THE $500. =
u1uch Greater Than That Passing Through

n1uch Greater Than That Passing Through
the Suez Canal. !
During the past eight years 2.0G0, 900
tons more of registered tonnage has
paesed through Sault Ste. Marie canal
than has passed through the Suez ca
nal This brief statement in the Min
neapolis journal contains world of
suggestion. Through the Suez canal
in 1893 there passed 3,341 vessels OF q
$4,000 tons. Last year the traffic was
about the same. The important steam
tonnage of the world goes through
that waterway, but in the ten years
ending in 1892 the tonnage on the Sault
Ste. Marie canal had increased from
2,O42, 259 to 10,647 1908 tons. And when
the vast extent of territory yet to be
settled up in the northwest and the GER
tain future for mining in Minnesota
alone is considered, the volume Of bust
ness tributary to the Sault Ste. Marie
is seen to be enormous in the near
future. The business has been In
creased ty great leaps and it is sus-
tanned. Present and future business,
the latter assured, present the strong
arguments for the definite amplifica-
ton of all plans for giving the north
west waterway to the sea. It issno
wonder that the northern waterway,
rapidly becoming inadequate to accom-
modate traffic, has been instrumental
largely in the reduction of freights on
ton mileage of seven trunk lines be-
tween the north Atlantic coast and the
Mississippi from 80 cents to $50 mills
between 1865 and 1903.
In view of these facts it seems re-
markable that all that New York pro
poses to do to retain the big grain traffic
which comes to her through the lakes
is to deepen the Erie and Champlain
canals by only two feet! For the EN-
pire state to have shown a curious in
difference to her own business inter-
ests seems Incredible indeed. New
York business men seem to think that
the traffic will come that way pcrpet~
ually, no matter if the Erie canal is not
improved. But it won't. There is a
great empire west of Lake Michigan
and Lake Superior which must have an
adequate outlet, and if it cannot get it
through New York state it will get
it down the St. Lawrence. In a#few
years there will be fifty million tons
of freight pouring through the great
lakes, and the urgent necessity brought
about by such conditions will compel
abrupt attention to the construction Of
an adequate outlet to the sea. The
present is the time, however, to agitate

Consul Doty's Kanakn Wife.

The telegraph brought the news n
few days ago that J. Lamb Doty, Amer
lean Consul to the Society Islands. had
set up housekeeping. II seems that the
girl bears the name Mueva Turnero
Rauri, and she is said to have brought
a neat dowry to her husband. She is
only 16, and Doty first met her a few
months ago on the beach of ncighbor-
Ing island, where she was trying to
bring to shore her capsized canoe
Young Doty induced her to elope to
another island, where he married her
according to the simple native formula,
which merely requires that the con-
tracing parties eat together and make
q number Of pledges. No wedding ring
Is required, no cake, no clergyman's
fees, and no license. When Doty re.
turned to Tahiti with his bride, he
rented q house, and the pair are now
living in South Sea Island style, with
good stock of cocoanuts and taro root.
The girls guardian appeared soon after
they set up housekeeping aud wanted
TO take her back to his house, but Doty
showed him this would be unwise and
he consented TO let her remain.
Young Doty was not of ace when
Cleveland appointed him Consul at
Tahiti. nine years ago. Since then he
has been a South Sea nasher for he
has been engaged TO two island prin-
cesses, but in each case the relatives
prevented marriage. Doty is well
known in Washington, where he has
influential relatives. His mother has

gyman In Washington. He was bright
boy. who first started as a page in the

braces tonics, febrlfuges, diuretics, and,
in fact, every medicinal agent that is
defined in the pharmacopia. These

NEW AMALGAMATED SCALE
Adopted with Lift Trouble and Salts
factory to all


The recent settlement ofthe Amalgamated
wage scale at Youngstown on 81 q ton
basis for pudding, was accomplished with
less trouble than had been anticipated, and
as 1t stands means that the wages oil iron
workers will be generally advanced.
The settlement holds good In all the mills
now under the jurisdiction Of the Amalga-
mated Association, and the scale as signed
will he in effect In all Of them. The scale IL
based on " bar iron card rate of 1-l0 cents
per pound, and for every advance OF
/ lilo cents in price Of bar iron the
workers will receive ten cents add.
tional per ton. As iron is now quoted
at l. 10 aud 1.2 cents per pound, 1t virtually
means that the workers will receive "a % q
ton for pudding. The scale Ia almost uni
versally satisfactory to the members OF the
association. Orders are plentiful in all mills,
and long and prosperous season for both
the manufacturers and the workmen seem
assured TO the end OF the year.
No radical changes have been made. and
the scale is now arranged for the coming
year, and will go into effect August |. at
which time the present agreement expires.
Under the present scale either side could
abrogate II 10y giving notice sixty days in ad-
vance. The clause has been eliminated from
the new scale having proven unsatisfactory
to both sides during the past year. President
Garland predicts a prosperous year in the
