Pig-Iron For China.

The Chinese have recently become
extensive purchasers of Philadelphia
made pig-iron. the demand for which
has heretofore been supplied by the
English, Germans and Belgians. A
consignment of the above iron is now
being taken on board the British ship
Perseverance at this port for shipment
to Shanghai. She will not take out a
full cargo, owing to the dead weight
character Of the shipment, but will fill
the remaining part of her cargo space
with refined petroleum and miscel-
laneous materials. Besides this, the
iron will act as stiffening for the yes
sci on her long run to the Far East.
Instead of taking stone as ballast, the
iron will serve that purpose, and thus
the expense of loading and discharging
the ballast will be done away with, and
the vessel will earn freight charges on
what heretofore has been a dead loss
to every sailing vessel.

IT would give five years of my life,"
said a young Chicago attorney who is
beardless, ito have your whiskers"
This was said to friend who was sup
piled with abundant whiskers. Now,
you as clerk have no use for that hair
on your face. 1t might be better if
you did not have it at all. While here
am I, who need it in my business, and
yet cannot raise beard to save my
life. 1t seems to me that the per capita
circulation of hair is inadequate to the
needs of the nation. l have never had
the slightest use for razor in all my
life, and yet such a beard as yours
would be worth at least $4,000 year to
me as lawyer. Strangers hesitate to
employ an attorney in an important
case if he has not beard. Of course,
there are exceptions to this rule, but it
generally holds good just the same. If
man is portly and has good address,
it does not so much matter, but taking
the average lawyer or professional
man, the beard cuts considerable fig

where beard is of no particular BEN

He is taken for a doctor every day. One
day last summer when he was walking
on the west side a woman rushed out
of house and insisted on his coming
in to see her husband, whom she
thought dying. The other morning he
was coming down town in North
State street car, when a woman asked
the conductor how she should go to st.
Luke's Hospital. The conductor could
not tell her, but he looked around the
car and picked out my brother, and
said to him: Doctor, what street is
st. Luke's Hospital on?' Whenever he
goes to a drug store the clerks call him
Doc and give him a professional dis
count. | went in with him one day
and the clerk was talking to a real doc
tor about some new and powerful med
icine. He turned to my brother and
said: Doctor, what has been your ex-
perience with thrtyjkidlpeke?' Blamed

about the medicine, and he didn't know
whether it was taken in capsules or

wood Fibre Cloth.

The making of wood into wood pulp
and thence into paper set inventors to
thinking, and result is the discovery
of the transformation of wood fibre in
to strong and handsome cloth. The
wood is boiled, crushed and the fibers
separated in parallel lines, dried and
spun, the same as cotton or wool. Oak,
hickory, and locust make a very hand
some cloth, while bamboo produces one
that is almost iron-like in its strength
and elasticity. The cost of the new
process. is not large, but is still little
above that of converting cotton or
linen into substantial tissues.

Bernard shaw. ..Vegetarinn. ;,

regret to say that vegetarianism is
a fighting diet. Ninety-nine per cent.
of the worlds fighting has been done
on farinaeeous food. In Trafalgar
square | found it impossible to run
away as fast as the meat eaters did.
Panic is a carnivorous specially. If
the army were fed on hardy, healthy,
feshless diet we should hear no more
OF the disgust of our colored troops
and of the Afridis and Fuzzywuzzies
at the cowardice of Tommy Atkins.
l am myself congenitally timid, but
as vegetarian can generally con-
ceal my tremors, whereas in my I'M
regenerate days, when l ate my fellow
creatures, I was as patent a coward
as Peter the Great. The recent spread
of fire-eating fiction and lingo war
Worship sort of thing that only in
terests the pusillanimous- due to
the spread of meat eating. Compare
the Tipperary peasant of the potatoes
and-butter-mi days with the modern
gentleman who gorges himself with
murdered COW. The Tipperary man
never read bloody minded novels or
cheered patriotic music hall tableaux,
but he fought reeklessly and wantonly.
Your carnivorous gentleman is afraid
of everything including doctors, dogs,
disease, death and truth telling.-G.
B. Shaw in the Vegetarian.

Lampposts are, so to speak, lin the
air. The other day it was decided
to use them as letter-boxes. Now Mr..
Justice Romer has granted permission
to work patent which is to utilize the
waste heat from gas lamps in the
street, whereby hot water may be sup
piled to the public by means of slot
machine. It is also proposed to aff1x
to the posts small packets of tea and
cocoa, which will also fall to a penny.
If the idea works as well as its in
ventors expect there will be no occa-
sion to bother about bungalows and
such like tea-places. One will simply
arrange for an al-fresco tea-party at
the nearest lamppost.

Oars are made of ash and of spruce
by far the greater number Of ash in
factories located mostly in Western
States east of the Mississippi River in
proximity to the forests whence the
wood of which the oars are made is
taken. Oars are made almost wholly
by machinery, some hand work being
done in finishing them. Ash oars are
made in various lengths, ranging from
six feet to twenty -four feet; they are
used for all working purposes and for
many pleasure boats. Spruce oars of six
to ten feet in length are likely to be
used by people who row for pleasure,
and spoon oars from six to fourteen
feet in length for racing are made of
spruce.
American oars are used pretty much
all over the world; in many countries
almost exclusively. The British Gov

the oars used on it's war vessels in this
country, making a new contract year.

Mortality in the Seminole war.

1OFtallIy IN the seminole war;
The only experience the United
States Army has ever had in tropical
warfare was in Florida, from 1885 to
1842-the seven years war with the
Seminole Indians. While the condi-
tons there were much more favorable
than they are in Cuba, the mortality
from disease was enormous in COM
parison to the number of men employ
ed. The records show that there were
altogether 7,400 troops engaged dur
ing the seven years fighting against a
total of about 5000 Indians, of whom
1854 were men, 1857 women, and 993
children. The war was carried on in
a manner very similar to that between
the Spaniards and the Cubans. The
Indians would never consent to a
stand-up fight unless they had a great
advantage, but lay in ambush and at
tackled the soldiers in the dark when
ever they could do so without expos
ing their own lives They lived on
the country, the native fruits, roots.
vegetables and game, while the SOL
diers were required to carry supplies
with them and were thus handicapped
and retarded in their movements. 1t
took seven years to subdue the saw
ages, and there was nopeace until they
were practically exterminated At the
end of seven years the fighting men
were reduced to about three hundred,
and they were hidden in the ever
glades.
During these seven years out of the
II, 400 troops employed 1881 died
twenty-three sailors and forty-two
marines, the remainder being officers
and soldiers of the regular Army. OF
this number only So were killed in bat
| tie, 214 died of wounds, and 1859 Of
malarial diseases.
! AS a result of the Indian war there
are now on the pension rolls 6,661 per-
sons, of whom 2,373 are survivors and
4,288 widows. They receive an aver
age of 100000 a year in pensions, and
since 1893 have been paid $9,243. 7OS.
The total amount thus far paid by the
Government for pensions growing out
of the Florida war will exceed $53, 000,-
900.
