WOMEN IN BUSINESS.
From the Free Press, Detroit. Micl

From the Free Press, Detroit, Mich.
A prominent business man recently ex.
pressed the opinion that there is one thing
that will prevent women from completely
filling mans place in the business world
they can't be depended upon because they
are sick too often. This is refuted by Mrs.
G. w. Mansfield, a business woman of So
Farrar St., Detroit, Mich, who says:

and was able to rest at night for the first
time in months. I bought more and took
them and they cured me as they also cured
several other people to my knowledge: I
think that if you should ask any of the drug

DR.. Williams Pink Pills they would say the
young women. These pills certainly build

Peril on Board Warships.

The danger that besets a warship
even in time of peace is illustrated by
the recent narrow escape of the first
class cruiser Australia, of the British
navy. While the ship was lying off
Southampton a green reserve man
snapped pistol at a box Of fuses close
to the door of an open shellroom. The
fuses began to spit fire like rockets,

FACTS ON CUBA'S WEALTH.
The Bureau of Foreign Commerce
Gives Detailed Statistics of
General Interest.

In response to the demand for infor-
nation in regard to Cuba and Puerto
Rico the bureau of foreign commerce,
department of state, has issued bulle-
tin containing much interesting infor-
nation, drawn from consular reports
and other official data concerning the
geography, products, commerce, rail-
ways, debts, cables, ETC., of these
islands. It includes also detailed de-
scriptions of all the large cities.
It is pointed out that if all the land
suitable to the growth of sugar cane
was devoted to that industry Cuba
might supply the entire western henis-
phere with sugar. The island has al
ready produced in single year for ex-
port 100000 tons, and it's capabilities
have been only in the experimental
stage.
Although settled more than so years
before the United States, Cuba still has
100000 acres of primeval forests, in
Guiding mahogany, redwood, ebony and
many other valuable woods.
In report from Consul Hyatt the
richness of the mineral deposits about
Santiago de Cuba is pointed out. Amer
lean companies with combined capital
of over $5,0OO,0O0 now operate mines in
this vicinity and employ from 800 to
1 400 men, shipping to the United States
from 10000 to $4,000 tons of iron ore per
month, most of it going to Bethlehem,
Steelton, Sparrows Point and Pitts
burgh. These iron ores are said to be
among the richest in the world. \
Mr.. Hyatt believes the old copper
mines in the same vicinity, which used
to turn out $3,O00,000 worth of copper
ore annually for use in the United
States, could be worked with profit.
The extent of the tobacco and sugar in
dustries are given in detail, although
these have suffered seriously as result
| of the last three years of warfare.
About $4,000 of the inhabitants are or
dinarily engaged in the cultivation of
tobacco. The Cuban debt is placed at
1925 100000, or about $979 per adult
| male.
The description of Puerto Rico is es-
| pecially interesting in the account of
San Juan harbor. 1t states that the en-
trance to the harbor is one of difficulty
and danger, particularly when north
er is blowing. The "boca," or entrance
to the harbor, is mass of seething,
foaming water, and presents an impos-
ing spectacle. To see steamers Of from
16 to 18 feet draft enter through this
seething ''boca' is sight to be remem-
bered, as the great waves lift them up
and seem about to hurl them forward to
| destruction.
San Juan is described as a perfect
specimen of walled town, with moat,
| gates and battlements. The description
of the various cities both in Cuba and
Puerto Rico shows that yellow fever
and smallpox are everywhere prevalent,
that the streets reek with filth, that the
water supply is poor and usually pol
luted and that modern sanitary meth:

everything would be in order. A new
trial would be instituted, and whether
the verdict were again guilty or I'm
nocent" both parties would be COM
PEELED to accept it as final.
There seems TO be one danger in re-
vision upon Nine. Dreyfus' demand
that more than one prominent man is
regarding anxiously at the present mo-
ment. This is, suppose the verdict
should happen to be "Dreyfus is inno-
