Judge Helm and Sheriff Plummer de-
cided to admit only 200 spectators to the
court room ut one time. Tickets are given
out for each half day, and no one will be
given tickets twice during the trial. In
this way the sheriff hopes to discourage
traffic in tickets, which, if placed on sale,
would undoubtedly demand high price.
A theory which finds many supporters
is that Jackson will take the stand and
admit he was instrTmental in bringing
about Miss Bryans DEATH that he was
mutual friend Of the victim and Will
Wood, and that ut their request he agreed
to perform the operation and requested
Walling to assist him. THIS they attempt
ed to do and made a mistake which re-
suited in death, but the crime was COM

A Pretoria dispatch gives the substance
of an interview with President Kruger,

BICYCLE FIRE ENGINE.
Partisan Firemen Are Using a De.
cidedIy Novel Machine.

Paris has a fire engine propelled by
cycling firemen. The machine has the
appearance of two tandem wheels cou-
pied with single steering post. Hang
ing between the two bicycle frames
are the hose and reel and rotary
pump. The whole outfit weighs less
than 40 pounds, and four experienced
wheelmen can push this along faster
than any other engine ever went. The
foot power of the four men propels
the machine to the scene of action, and
when once there-the same power pumps
the water.
After the arrival at the scene each
man is assigned to some part of the
duty of making the change. One raises
the back of the machine on leg, allow
ing the rear wheels to revolve freely
He also throws the pump into work
ing order and the others have unreeled
the hose and made the coupling connec-
ton. Then, jumping into the saddles
again, the energies of the men are
directed to pumping. About $500 gall
Ions of water per hour can be thrown
between seventy-five and one hundred
feet in the air
The rapidity with which this machine
can be propelled to a fire and put into
action is its great advantage. In two
or three minutes after its arrival all
necessary changes can be made and the
machine Is putting a stream over the
roof.-Chicago Journal.

contention cannot but suffer seriously,
both in matter Of value, as we'll as of
position, in the market"
That paragraph was very unscrupu-
lously mutfliated by Horst Brothers
and then incorporated in a circular to
British brewers to support their new
position here. But when we penned it
we little imagined the extent to which
our forecast would prove prophetic.
1t is now our turn to draw attention
to the answering results as recorded
above.
In the same circular they claimed
"the hearty cooperation of the growers
and brewers" but assured the latter
that they expected their orders "only
as long as we maintain our lower
prices" Lower prices is the key note
of numerous other circulars, and the
expressed means by which they aim to
become the sole middlemen for the
handling of Pacific hops here. More
over, they informed the brewers that
"the farmers are willing to accept these
losing prices"
In the face of these unexampled do
ings in our market, it is not surprising
that Pacifics are fast losing their foot
ing. Consumers have been taught to
hold them in cheap estimation. They
have become dangerous to factors to
make advances upon, and to merchants
to buy for stock. And while this at
tempt of one young foreign firm to
beard the old-established and power
ful English merchants Is persisted in,
Pacific hops must continue to pay the
penalty, enormous as it may be- Our
merchants will take care to buy low
enough to supply their brewers as
cheaply as others may offer them; our
wealthy brewers (who really do not
want hops at starvation prices) will get
a benefit they have not sought; and the
growers will have to be content with
impoverishment. or it may be, ruin
The mischief of these Tower prices"
does not end here, for the English mar
ket is admittedly the pulse of all other
markets, and the decentralization be-
gun here is reflected to the other cen
ters, and thus the loss becomes uni
versal.
We have deemed it our duty, not only
to our immediate clients. but to the
whole body of American hop growers
to draw their serious attention to these
facts, believing that they cannot be
fully informed upon what is transpir-
ing here.
We fervently hope that, impediments
Notwithstanding, the present trying
times for producers and sellers alike
may soon be succeeded by the happy
advent of remunerative prices.

WAGES IN SILVER COUNTRIES
What the Workingmen Receive in
India and the Orient.

India is one of the great silver coun-
tries. Here is some information con-
corning wages paid to workingmen IN
that country, given under the authority
of United States Consul General Poyk
at Calcutta, which American working
men will do we'll to ponder:
Wages for unskilled labor as truck
ers SWeepers, etc, 4 annaS C cents per
day. Wages for skilled labor, such as
the foreman in the picking, cardins,
rowing, etc, rooms in rice mills, i annas
Us cents) per day. Native engineers and
firemen receive l rupee GA cents per
day Coal costs AZ annas G. cents) per
aund 80 81 pounds).
American workingmen will perhaps
be interested in reading what United
States Consul General Jernigan, at
Shanghai, says about the wages of
la borers engaged in the cotton mills of
China, which country is on a silver
basis. Mr.. Jernigan says:
"The cotton mills now in operation at
Shanghai employ 5000 laborers at the
maximum average per day of about ~
cents in silver. The food Of these labor
ers consists of rice, cabbage, fish occa-
sionally, and sometimes Chinese pork
two or three times a month, the cost of
the entire food supply not exceeding
two Mexican dollars per month.
The wages and the food appear salts
factory to the laborerS, and there has
been no complaint by them either on ac-
count of wages or food. There are four
large cotton mills now being built, and
these will employ an additional 1000
laborers, the number employed by the
four cotton mills now being operated.
There will be 10000 laborerS employed
in the cotton mills at Shanghai alone at
the cheap rate of about 10 cents in gold
per day, and it is represented to me
that, under the guidance of European
supervision, by the aid Of modern ma
chinery, the manipulation of the cotton
is as skillful in the cotton mills at
Shanghai as in those of any country.
THE American laborer cannot live on
the wages paid to a Chinese laborer and
he would not and ought not to be con-
tented with the food that Chinese eats
with satisfaction. Such wages and such
food would depreciate the manhood and
the courage which have ever been the
safeguard of our free institutions, and
the absence of which is so painfully evi-
dent around me in the bearing and
character of Iaborers who receive their
wages in money Of such little value and
subsist on food of as little sustenance.'
