BAD FORM TO KNOCK ASHES OFF.
Light on Mexican Manners Comes to
nm American Who Thought He Was
Polite
From the Washington Star.

From the Washington Star.
The man who had been down in NTexi-
co trying to buy a carload of silver dol
lars made for the American market and
guaranteed worth their weight in sterling
silver was in town the other day looking
Tor customers. incidentally he ran across
a Star reporter and offered to sell him
ton or two of dollars Then the man
asked for light and the reporter. fiop-
ping the ashes from his cigar, handed it
over to the returned traveller.
There is such a difference in customs" /"
said the man. taking his light from the
borrowed cigar. Now you notice how
politely and thoughtfully-for thoughtful
ness is the true politeness-you knocked
the ashes off your cigar when you hand
ed il to me to light mine"
reporters are always polite" suggest
ed the reporter.
AS | was saying" continued the man.
unheedlng, there is such a difference in
customs. Now. when l went to Mexico
the first time l didn't know the Mexican
code OF manners, and about the first thing
l dld when l landed was to ask a man
! FOR light. He handed me a cigar with
the ashes on. / thought il was bad man
ners, but l hipped them off and kindIed
my weed. ! did that four or five times
ana l always got it the same way Then

me Tor light so l would show Mexico
What real manners were. l got a chance
one day, and when man asked me for
night l fpped off the ashes, and. with a
salaam at least two yards across in its
widest sweep, | extended him the blazing
stump. He took il, Of course, because
ne was too polite to treat a stranger 9TH
erWise, but he did il in a way that show

asking question or two.
The result was that l discovered what
the true form was and what an ass | had
been making Of myself trying 20 teach
those CASTLE soaparOons what the code

the thing to do was TO leave the ashes on
at their fun and TO daintily touch the

WESTERN OUTLOOK BRIGHT
What Two Minnesota officials Say of Bust
ness Prospects.
What They Have Seen and Heard is
OF the Most Encouraging Nature
Contrast With Last Year.

August I. koerner. treasurer OF the state
CT Mil nesota, and r. c. Dunn auditor of
the state, who are in Washington on b,isi-
tess with the Interior Department with
relation to tie state school funds bring
very interesting reports of prosperity in
the west.
Mr.. Koerner says: 1.-The outlook in Min
nesota is vefy bright. and information
nom other parts of the west show that
the revival of prosperity is general. Those
who handle statistics say that there have
been more mortgages paid off in Minnesota
tnis year than in any two years before.
Our farmers are getting gooi prices for
their products. the crop prospects are good
ana In every line of business there is a
marked Improvement. Our people are ac-
1--WE and full of encourag cement and conf
uence There Is nothing to indicate that
tbis is merely transient condition. 1t
mas developed in manner to indicate per-
nanerce, the improvement extending to
every line of business. There is. 1 think.
very little popullSm left in the state
Mr.. Dunn, who is a silver man. though a
republican, says about the same thing as to
'ne development of prosperity. Why" he
said, we are all right in Minnesota. We
vanced all along the line and business is
active Not only has wheat advanced, but
other things have followed in the train.
Potatoes, which last year sold as low as
cents bushel, are now selling for 80 and
Do cents. Cattle are from sIJ to so. There
Is a similar advance in the price Of dairy
products, and our people are getting a re-
turn for all the products of their TOLL
Last year considerable attention was at
tracted by an incident connected with the
price of potatoes in St. Paul. A farmer Of
fered a load Of potatoes for sale and could
get but eight cents a bushel for them. This
SO disgusted him that he took them down
to the river and dumped them overheard.
The city authorities then fined him So for
dumping refuse into the river. He went
nome with the declaration that there was
nothing left in the world for a farmer
since no one would buy his produce and he
had to pay for the privilege of throwing IL
away If this same farmer raised potatoes
this year he may take a more cheerful
view Of life.

OUR SAMOAN POLICY.
Instructions Issued to the Consul
General at Amin.


The instructions to Luther W. Osborn.
the newly appointed consul general at

policy Of the last administration toward
Samoa is to be reversed, and that the in

ture- The new consul general has been
instructed to report the political condition
of the islands and the manner in which
the provisions of the agreement of Great

for the protection of the Samoan govern
ment is being carried out.
He is also instructed to formulate plan

LABOR DAY AT WHEELING.
Striking Miners Given the Head of
the Column i'm Parade.


the Column i'm Parade.
WHEELING. w. Va, August 2S.-Today
is Labor day in Wheeling. and it is being
made in reality a demonstration in favor
CT the striking coal miners.
In the parade, which moved at 10 o'clock,
tie miners were given the head of the
column, and there were over a thousand of
them in line, with representatives from all
the mining districts of the upper Panhandle
and eastern Ohio. Their banners and de-
vices were picturesque and unique, both in
make and sentiment. the chief burden of
their declaration being against the pluck
me stores" and government by injunction.
Throughout the parade which included
all the trades unions In the middle Ohio
valley. the same sentiments were found on
the banners. At the picnic on the state
fair grounds are booths where help for the
n iners can be given, and many a dollar
ordinarily spent for good cheer at Labor
day picnics is going into the miners fund.
1t is all needed, too. for destitution is
staring the strikers in the face and a.
Wheeling creek and Dilonvale many are
hungry. In this city there has been ample
relief, but in small places, where nearly all
the Inhabitants are miners, there is much
destitution and suffering.

WILL BE RECALLED,
COrea's Ruler DfssntfsHed With His
Minister Here.

Information has been received in this
city from Corea to the effect that Minister
Chin Pom Ye will be recalled and that the
King of Corea is much dispieased by the
minister's failure to attend the funeral of
Pom Kwang Sob, which is said to be one
of the reasons influencing him in deciding
upon the recall of the diplomat.
1t is understood here that Chin Pom Ye
is intensely disliked in Corea, and that a
return to that country will endanger his
life. The fact that his name has been con-
nected with the assassination of the minis
ter OF agriculture and the prime minister
OF that country has caused an intense
hatred, 1t is said, toward him on the mart
OF the people, the king having been won
over to his side by being made TO believe
that he saved his life In a moment of dam
ger. Over year ago, when an effort was
made to assassinate the king, Chin Pom
Ye rushed into the presence of the former
and escorted him to the Russian legation
where he was cared for. 1t is also said
that the father of Ye, when governor of
Seoul, had fifty French Catholic mission
aries put to death in the most barbarous
manner. their bodies being thrown on the
roads without the city gates
1t is said that Ye feels confident that he
can overcome the unfriendliness of the
King OF Corea II he returns to his coun-
try, and that he expects to do so Others,
however, regard his return as attended
with great danger.

SUFFERING AMONG STRIKERS
Food Scarce at the Camps and Men Are
Barefooted.
Strike Continues to Spread I'm Pitts
burg District-West Virginia Oper-
atOrs Get Lake Contracts.

PITTSBURG, Pa, August 2S.-The ca mp
ers at Plum Creek executed flank move
ment upon the deputies guard there
shortly before daylight, and before they
were discovered they had marched al
around the companys houses and induced
eight men to stay at home. When the
deputies arrived they attempted to stop
the marchers, but the strikers paid no at
tention to the orders, and when they had
finished their work marched back to camp.
There is much suffering at Camp Isola-
tion en- account of the lack of clothing
and shoes. Many CT the men bare
footed, having worn their shoes out march
ing and doing missionary work. Superin-
tendent De Armitt visited a number of the
striking miners at their houses early this
morning. but failed to induce any of them
to return to work.
One of tine effects of the coal miners
strike in this district appears 10 ne that
West Virginia operators are rapidly sup
planting those in this district in the way
of contracts for lake shipments. 1t is an
Eounced that the West Virginia operators
have advanced the price 20 operators here
% cents. and that the Pittsbdrg men can
not fill their contracts at this rate. The
agent of one prominent Cleveland firm
operating in this district was notified that
West Virginia coal could be bought at
Cleveland cheaper plus freight, than was
offered to the agent here. The representa-
tives Of the West Virginia firms who are
here say their companies have more orders
than they can fill, and it is stated that
the Watson Company. operating the Mon
tara mine in the Fairnount district, has
concluded contract for 20o.U0O tons Of
coal for the lake trade, which formerly
was supplied from here.
The first mines in the PittSburg district
to be started in the attempt to break the
big coal strike will be those of the Pitts
burg and Chicago Gas Coal Company. on
the Wheeling division Of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad. All the arrangements have
been completed for putting the mines in
operation. but the company prefers to have
the old men return. and for that reason has
decided to defer action for ten days.
More Miners Join the Strike.
DUBOIS. Pa, August 2s.-The Eleanor
miners joined the strikers this morning.
and with the Reynoldsville miners are
marching GEO strong to Walston and
Adrian. The Eleanor miners were origf-
nally much opposed to striking, but such
they quit work. The ReynoIdsville miners
camped at Eleanor last night. and the
marchers left that place at o'clock this
morning.
The Walston and Adrian miners will PROB
ably strike today, and this will preclude the
possibility of the miners here holding a
meeting Monday to reconsider the question
of returning to work. Gen. Manager Rob
inson is in New York city consulting with
the owners Of the mines, but is expected
home today.
