sery ices of the police were required ia
numerous instances to prevent the hoard
OF unemployed from mobbing the city
supply wagons. The meeting OF 30. 900
idle miners in the city OF Denver recently,
demanding either work or bread, is an
other indication that good times" have
not come again.
In two lines OF industry. however, there
is little cause for complaint and those are
the mining OF gold and of copper. The
former always is good and the product l.
constantly appreciating in value while
the cost OF mining is creasing. The
latter is in fairly good condition at pres
ent, after long period OF depression,
thanks to the foreign demand for copper.
That the m rket price of copper will still
further appreciate, or at least b I'D firm,
is believed by those in position to cor
rectly Judge the market and estimate the
influence Of it's environments. Lake
ingot holds steady at 11%@l2 cents,
and, although domestic business g
rather quiet there continues 10
be a gratifying demand for the metal
for export. The large electric manufac-
turing companies report the copsumma-
ton OF large contracts tor electrical
equipment which will make better do
nestle demand for copper, while the ex.
tension OF the long distance telephone
service is making increasing demands on
the supply of the metal. The only factor
which will tend to keep the price Of cop
per from advancing during the current
year is the increasing output OF the
mines. The temptation to increase the
OUTPUT is too great one for the mining
to resist when fairly good
prices obtain and there is reason to ex-
pect that the policy OF the past will he
pursued in the future, when future condi-
tons are the same as those OF the past. |

25. Enlistmcnts of apprentices are
made on board of the following
named ships: Constellation, Coaster S
Harbor Island, near Newport, R. l.;
Vermont. Navy Yard, Brooklyn, n.
Y; Wabash, Navy Yard, Boston,
Mass; Richmond, Navy Yard, League
Island, Pa, and the Independence,
Navy Yard, Mare Island, Cal.
26. Apprentices are under the i'm
mediate supervision of the bureau of
navigation. Information regarding
enlistments will be furnished by that
bureau or by the commanding officers
Of the above named ships.
27. Apprentices who are enlisted in
the East will be given a course of
training at Coasters Harbor Island,
near Newport, R. L., and those ems
listed on the Pacific coast at Mare Is
land, CAL, before being sent to sea.
%. An apprentice may be allowed
to purchase his discharge from the
service during the first eighteen
months Of enlistment, upon the writ
ten request of his parent or guardian,
which request must be made upon
blanks which will be furnished, upon
application, by the bureau Of naviga-
tion.
29. Any apprentice discharged dur
ing his minority at the request of his
parent or guardian must refund any
indebtedness to the government and
the value of the outfit furnished him
upon enlistment, in addition to the
cost of his discharge.
JOHN D. LONG, Secretary.
Assistant Secretary Roosevelt is
deeply interested in this subject, and
when he goes South to witness the
movements of the torpedo fotilla he
will look into the question of locating
the desired recruiting stations. 1t
must be remembered that these sta
tions cannot be established and main
tanned unless Congress authorizes the
necessary appropriations; therefore the
North Carolina, South Carolina, Geor-
gia and Florida Congressman might
find it to the advantage of their con-
stituents to look into the subject with
some care.
If the South proves herself to be a
fruitful field for naval recruiting why
should she not have a big recruiting
rendezvous and receiving ship, such
as they have at New York, Boston, or
Mare Island, California. The West
has sent some very desirable men and
boys into the service during recent
years. The South has also some very
creditable representatives among the
enlisted men. One instance [ recall
is that of Lee Boland;T Georgia lad,
who is now boatswain on board of the
Marion, having worked his way up to
the rank of warrant officer from an
apprentice on board one Of the train
ing ships. He is one of the brightest
young warrant officers in the service,
and he has life position, and it is
possible for him to reach salary limit
Of 81 300 per annum, with allowances.
At the department it is said that pref
erence it always given to the boys of
the training ship classes in promotion
to the rank of petty officers. Much
more could be written on this subject,
but l have already shown that there is
no reason why American sailors should
not man American war ships.

A Wife's RetOrt.

Old Joe was quiet old man out
somewhat too fond of the bottle.
When in his cups his ideas tended
toward theological matters, which he
always avoided in his sober moments.
1t was Saturday afternoon, and his
good wife wanted some wood for the
oven, as she had bread to bake.
"Joe, I do wish you would 60 and
split some wood. Here it is nearly 2
o'clock, and the fire isn't made.
Joe went out to execute his COM
mission, and fearing his physical con-
dition was weak, marched to the
neighboring tavern to fortify himself
therein. He returned home oblivious
to all things save his pet theories.
Seating himself on the chair, he said :
I say (hic) Jane, do you (hic) think
(hic) the Lord (hic) means to burn US
all up IN hre
His venerable spouse, being exceed
ingly irate, did not answer. Again he
repeated the question. Still an omi-
nous silence.
Wife, do you think the Lord in
tends to burn Us UP i'll fire cv last
ing ?'
"No," said the now thoroughly
aroused housewife "no, you fool, not
if he waits for you to split the wood.
