New Arrangements to Defeat the
Combine.
CHICAGO. H.. March 29.-Lake yes
selmen and Western railroad mag
mates are said to be looking for the
collapse Of the elevator trust The ef-
feet of the expected collapse viii do
much to protect the lake route against
the Gulf ports and more southern
routes TO the Atlantic. For years the
Buffalo elevator pool has been master
of the situation and steadily refused
TO lower its charges.
Early this year some Chicagoans
took a hand in the fight. Armour and
Bartlett, Frazier & Co.. started 20
build in Buffalo an immense steel ele-
yator. which is now nearly completed,
and ii is announced that the same
firms Will build another Ii is said that
the next move will be 10 enter New
York and Buffalo as a sort of way
station. Instead of selling grain in
Chicago for delivery at Buffalo or Erie.
it will be sold for delivery at the port
of New York. Counselman & Co. are
said TO have made the same arrange
ments for the handling OF their grain
by way of Erie and have leased the
Pennsylvania elevator at Jersey City.
At the port of New York the charges
are said to be even more extortionate
than at Buffalo.
1t is said Chicago will be able TO
control the traffic by the lakes when
the pool breaks, as it Will reduce trans
portation TO the seaboard , cents a
bushel The breaking up of the pool
will. it is said, add at least , cents
bushel 10 the value Of grain in the
West. since the export price is made
by making the price at Liverpool and
subtracting the cost of getting il there.

How Camphor Is Made.
The Whittier.


One Of the principal products of the
territory which has come under
Japanese administration as a result Of
the war with China is camphor.
Small shanties are scattered over
the hill were the camphor trees grow,
and in all directions the clearing OF
the woods is going on at rapid rate
On the hillsides are built distilleries,
consisting of oblong-shaped structures
principally of mud bricks and about
10 or IL feet long, 6 feet broad and 4
feet high.
On each side there are five to ten
fire holes about foot apart and the
same distance about the ground. On
each fire hole is placed an earthen pot
full of water, and above it cylindrical
tube about foot in diameter and two
feet high passes up through the
structure and appears above it.
The tube is capped by large in.
verted jar, with packing of damp
hemp between the jar and the cylinder
to prevent the escape of steam. The
cylinder is filled with chips of wood
about the size of the little finger,
which rests on perforated lid cover.
ing the jar of water, SO that when the
steam rises it passes up to the inverted
jar, or condenser, absorbing certain
resinous matter from the wood on its
way. While distillation is going on
an essential oil is produced and il
found mixed with the water on the in
side of the jar. When the jar is re-
moved, the beady drops solidify
capitalization commences, and cam
phor in crude form, looking like
newly formed snow, is detached by
the hands, placed in baskets lined with
plantain leaves and hurried off to the
nearest border town for sale.

illustration showing how Uncle Sam

illustration showing how Uncle Sam

Forty years ago he stood neck and

concerning the reforms that have
been brought about in English schools

man who seeks t. di>credit her own
>.x. attempted to show that American
women >utiragi>ts had never done
anything for their country during the
Civil War-and this in the face of the
records Of Anna Dickinson's cloqucncc,
Miss Booths scholarship dedicated to
the causr of liberty, OF Mrs. Liver

inspiration, and the cea,eless work of

Yet every law that seeks justice for
women and for humanity through

is the direct result of the agitation,
the ceaseless efforts, OF these and wo.
men like them.
In England it is the same; moth
ing for the betterment of women
the opening of avenues of labor closed
to them, the equalization of wages, the
equality of women with men before
courts-was never accomplished, or
ever asked, by women who "have all
the rights they want" by those who
themselves counting publicity, seeking
recognition in the profession of letters,
advise all other women to stay at
home-advice which, to thousands, is
like that recipe for cooking hare,
the first suggestion of which is to
catch the hare. Lady Battersea and
the DOwager Duchess of Bedford are
both foremost among the women of
England who have asked for Parlia-
mentary suffrage, women OF broad
culture, of the highest social position,
who annually pay taxes upon vast es-
tates. They are two of many who sat
in the gallery of the House OF Com
mons, behind grille like that in a
Persian harem, and heard political
charlatans like Labouchere hold them
up to ridicule in a manner that called
forth the protests of even the most
pronounced anti-suffragist newspapers.
"But the times change-they have
changed, they are constantly change
ing, and men must change with them.
What is just, what is righteous, will
prevail, and the bigot, the fool, dies of
his own intolerance and folly. And
his passing is like the passing of a

1T has been declared that at the pres
ent rate of consumption, in fifty years
there will not be o tree left in Amer
lea. Evidently the above declaration
is believed by few. Though it takes
100000 acres of timber to supply the
yearly demand for railroad ties, yet
the market price is only Is or 20
cents. Fortunately it only takes u
or Is years to reproduce trees of SUI fl
cient size for ties, otherwise the pre-
dictiOn might become true.

A CONCEITED fellow, with some pre-.
tensions to literature, once travelled
some distance by rail with Victor
Hugo, and entertained the great
author with much egotistical con-
verse. The author of "Les Miser-

ton, was about to leave the train when
his interlocutor said: "You may,
perhaps, like to know who l am. l
am Victor Hugo" "How odd" re-
marked the real Hugo, $50 am l."

Maintaining Credit.

1t is not always that circumstances
favor an operation like that when
certain Spectator had need of large
sum of money for his operations and
found himself with very small bal.
ance in the bank. He consulted with
a friend as to how he could get over
the emergency. The friend suggested
that he should draw on somebody in
another city. The operator said he
knew of no one that owed him, and
the friend insinuated that that would
make no difference if the draft did
not return too soon.
The operator reflected for time
and then wrote out draft on the
Sultan of Turkey for two thousand
pounds and deposited it in the bank.
The draft came into the hands of the
Rothschilds, who forwarded it to Con-
stantinople, and it was duly presented
to the Sultan's chamberlain.
"Who is this MANI" asked the
Chamberlain of the Sultan's Treas
urer.
"Don't know him." replied the
Treasurer.
"Do we owe him anything?" asked
the Chamberlain.
"No."
"Then do not pay it," decided the
Chamberlain.
"But if ! might advise" said the
crafty Treasurer, this draft comes
through the Rothschilds, with whom
we are negotiating loan. Would it
be safe under the circumstances to
dishonor it"
Pay it," said the Sultan's Cham
lain, and SO the speculatOr was two
thousand pounds richer than he knew,
to his own great astOnishment.

Meat-Eating and Temper.

Mrs. Ernest Hart, who accompanied
her husband i'll his recent trip around
the world, appears to come to the con-
clusion that mcat-cating is bad for the
temper. In tic Hospital she says
that in no country is home rendered
So unhappy and life made ST. miserable
by the ill-tcmprr Of those who are
obliged to live together H. in England.
If we compare domestic life and man
ners in England with those of other
countries where meat does not form
such an integral article of diet, Il nOta
bic improvement will be remarked.
In less meat-cating France, urbanity is
the rule of the home; in fish and rice
eating Japan, harsh words are I'M
known, and an exquisite politeness to
one another prevails even among the
children who play together in the
streets. In Japan | never heard rude,
angry words spoken by any but Eng
lishmen. l am strongly Of opinion
that the ill-temper of the English is
caused in great measure by . too
abundant meat dietary, combined with
u sedentary life. The half-oxidized
products of albumen circulating in the
blood produce either mental or moral
disturbances. The healthful thing to
do is to lead an active and unselfish
life, on a moderate diet, sufficient to
maintain strength and not increase
weight.
