Little Marble Imported Now.

The importation Of marble to the
United States has almost ceased. It is
only now and then that cargo arrives
at this port, while a few years ago a
feet of sailing vessels brought many
cargoes annually from the famous Car.
rara quarries in Italy to Philadelphia.
Marble buildings seem to be becoming
things Of the past, and the tombstone
makers find little demand for marble
tombs, slabs or monuments. Granite
has taken the place Of marble every.
where, even in the cemeteries, where
marble shafts and slabs were formerly
the only proper things. Granite, unlike
marble. does not require very frequent
cleaning and looks we'll without being
touched up for years. It also admits OF
high polish and does not show the
marks of rust by contact with metal, as

A Military Exquisite.

Marshal Ney, who was as handsome
as he was brave, is said never to have
appeared on the field at a great battle
until he was dressed with scrupulous
elegance and his beard carefully curled
and perfumed. When he was led out
to execution. he was cool and calm as
though he were going to open dance,
only asking that the guns should be
aimed low, that his face might not be
disfgured after death.

The Iron Age, the organ of the iron
Journals in the land, says editorially:
Manufacturers are taking great inter.
est in the progress of mechanical edu-
cation. Evidence to this effect is con-
tinually coming to light in the proceed
ingS of the various manufacturers as
sociations. The students of the manual
training schools are making their i'm
press in numerous lines, and employers
cannot help expressing their gratitica
ton at the manner in which the stand
ard of every craft is being raised by the
superior intelligence which has been
thus infused into the mass. While the
benefits Of the training schools are shar-
ed both by the students and by those
who become the employers, 1t Is be-
lieved that the latter should display in
a more practical way than hitherto the
deep interest felt by them in the sue
cess of this system of improving our
mechanical trades" 1t is manual train
ing, practical, technical and CONNER
cial training, that has enabled Germany
to push her products into all quarters
of the globe, in spite of the greater nat
ural endowment of the American and
Britisher for manufacturing and trade.
West of us lies the Pacific ocean, to the
development of whose commerce all
ewes are turning. To whom will fall
the lions share of this vast trade Is
largely a question, not of armies or ma
vies, but Of commercial Initiative and
business capacity. Whether the por-
ton of the United States shall be large
or small is solely a question of brains,
since the advantage in location 10 ours
already.

TABLE MANNERS.
Wall of the Fan Who Carves for IA
Large Family.

Wall of the Fan Who Carves for a
Large Family.
"A Veteran" writes to the Listener
of the Boston Transcript to complain
of table manners In these later days.
incidentally protesting against the
hard lot of the father who has to carve
for large family: "In the old way we
are taught to walt until the carving
and helping was done before beginning
to dispose of the food, out of respect to
the carver, and so that he might have
chance to get something to eat and not
come out behind all others at the table,
but modern table manners seem to
gets anything to eat he is lucky. Mod
ern table manners also do not appear
to regard 1t as any way inappropriate
to have newspaper at hand to occupy
the time at table. The old way was
to occupy the time in lively conversa-
ton, and reading Il paper or book was
disrespectful In modern table man
ners there seems no inciyility in light
ing a cigarette at the table or in ad-
journing to the hall to smoke one while
the table is being cleared for dessert.
There are many other innovations in
modern table manners which might be
noted, but | think many of the old
ways best"
The Listener gives the old grumbler
comfort. 1T is queer father Of
family who expects to carve and get
anything to eat. The size Of the roast
may be simply prodigious, but, even If
the young people at the table who were
first served do not come around for
second helping by the time the last per
son is served the first time the roast
will probably by that time have got
into the shapeless and refractory condi-
ton peculiar to roasts. which will in
cline the carver to content himself with
a little bread and grayy-or at least to
take the edges off the pangs Of hunger
with something of that sort, while he is
organizing a second assault on the
roast for the benefit Of the others"

The Cleveland Leader has been inter.
viewing the census reports and presents
some facts in regard to the proportions
of native and foreign born citizens that
ought to clear away n great deal of mis-
apprehension 1t shows that in 1890
41,946, 204 inhabitants of this country
were native born and wholly of native
parentage. Only 1904 ,265 were born
of one foreign and one native parent,
and only 17.011,7S1 were of foreign par
ents. or these 100000, about half
were born on American soil. BY ma
tionalities Alp. 1919 were Irish, 5,776,-
1856 German, 1880, 1913 English. 3O3, los
Scotch 169, S32 Welsh, 5O3,266 English
Canadians, making the British element
about 2,400 600, or more than all the
Italians, HungarianS, Poles, BOhemi-
ans. French and Russian and Austrian
SlavS together. OF Swedes there were
G9O,401, Of Norwegians 0,227, Of
Danes 1914, 449, or a total Scandinavian
population Of about 100000. OF other
nationalities, it appears that the Rus
sian element leads with 24S, 165. The
BOhemians numbered 205, 1865, the Ital-
ians 236,00S the French 17T,OO7, and
the Hungarans 50, 161. Other minor
foreign elements numbered 961, 900.
The only unpleasant feature about this
presentation Is that the Germanic or
Saxon Celtic and Scandinavian ele-
ments, which are easily assimilated, no
longer form so large proportion of the
immigration as formerly. Slavs, Hun
garians and Italians have been sweep
ing in in numbers so large that the cen
sus of 1900 will show a much larger
proportion of these elements than the
1890 figures.

There are a few misguided Ameri
cans who are impressed with the belief
that the American volunteers would not
be able to hold their own with the train
ed regulars of Europe. This belief has
been shattered, and most happily, too.
The plains and hills around Santiago
tell the story. Outnumbered, the volun-
teers fought an offensive battle, and
that's a terrible handicap of itself,
against trained European soldiers be-
hind breastworks; against men who
were acclimated; against even the ele-
ments, for a tropical sun and tropical
rains are more terrible than cold lead; ;
and In the face of all they drove these
trained European soldiers back, and
back, and back, until they were almost
within the gates of Santiago and I'M
der the protection of fleet the pride Of
Spain. Small wonder, then, that the
Americans rested and withdrew for n
time, without a single soldier of this
trained lot to follow them, even single
step. But there is another case in his
tory where the Americans met the
trained soldiers of Europe. That was
more than a hundred years ago, when
some hired Hessians were brought over
here. They were supposed to be the
best fighters in Europe, real fiends for
fighting And what was their fate? An
army to fight must be actuated by patri-
otto sentiment sufficiently deep to stir
the blood. to quicken the pulse 1t must
be actuated by something else than
mere mechanical love of fighting And
these the American volunteer army has
in the highest degree. and against it the
trained soldiers of Europe can not pre-
vail.

many apprehensions were felt for Its
safety. 1t was feared that Cervera's
fleet, then skulking about in the Carib-
bean Sea, would evade our fleet, get
outside, and attack and destroy the
Oregon. Captain Clark, however, kept
on his course, and the first message
which came from him was: Don't tan
gle me up with instructions and l will
take care of myself" From the way
in which the Oregon took care of itself
in the Santiago fight and took care of
some of the Spanish vessels also there
can be little doubt that if Cervera's
way to Florida he would have whipped
the entire outfit.
