China Methods.

Nowhere else are the principles Of
sound banking better known and un-
derstood or so universally practiced,
while the word Of a Chinese merchant
is accepted the world around. The
Chinese were the first to coin money
and they have long since solved the
problem Of bank note issues. Business
conditions are stable and values set
tied. Their internal commerce is high
ly developed and all products that can
stand their slow methods Of transpor-
tatiOn are well distributed.
Yet this, the greatest country In the
world, is without any of the modern
means Of transportation and exchange.
It's immense traffic is still handled In
the most primitive manner-strings Of
camels that reach from the city gate
to the horizon carry the tons of coal
for the peoples fuel. Pack mules
from western provinces laden with
dried fruits, silks and rugs, return with
salt fish and sea weeds. Heavy carts
groan beneath casks Of fragrant wines.
Towboats are dragged along the canals
and rivers by dozen Of straining men.
The travelling merchant may make
his trip by cart, boat or sedan chair,
If the weather be mild, but If it be
winter, the mule litter will carry him
over the rougher country, or he may
skim along the waterways on a light
sled propelled by human arms and
legs.-Leslie's Weekly.

Strange PredIcamcnt Of a Bird.

A writer in Bird Lore says: Several
years ago, when in a Western town,
was taken to q neighbours to see his
birds. -Four cages swung in the shelter
of commodious porch. One contained
a red-winged blackbird that had been
taken from its nest when very young
and brought up by hand. His associ
ates were a canary, bluejay and an
oriole. The canary had been pur
chased at n bird store, and had been
taken from neighborng nests, and had,
no doubt, picked up the Characteristic
notes Of their species from the many
other members of their kind that in
habited the vicinity, but it was many
miles to the nearest swamp or lowland
where one might find a red-winged
blackbird. The red-wing had learned
perfectly the notes Of his Gagged com,
panions, and had picked up some notes
of other birds in the neighborhood but
not one note of the red-winged black
bird did he know"

Paris, Nov. 27.-Kruger, at o'clock
this morning was driven in a landau,
surrounded by guards and policemen,
to visit Premier Waldeck-Rousseau.
The interview lasted about ten min
utes. Later the premier returned the
call.
Paris, Nov. 27.-Officials of the mum
icipal council of Paris and the general
council of the Seine, were received at
10 o'clock by Kruger in the Hotel
Scribe. The interview was private
and brief. Immediately after the Wis
itors had departed Kruger drove to
the Hotel De Vile, where he received
massed in the square in front of the
edifice. The municipal councillors
and the people in the public galleries
loudly cheered the distinguished visit
or. Vice-president Escudier delivered
an eloquent address saying that Paris
had given Kruger a welcome worthy
of his noble character and the gran
deur of his cause. The president OF
the general council spoke in similar
strain. Kruger replied in energetic
tones, thanking the speakers for the
sentiments expressed. He said he
was deeply grateful for the welcome
which was a continuation of and crown
ing that which France had already
given him. He was very thankful for
what had been done and for what they
wished to do for him and his people,
who are still struggling and are not
yet defeated. Kruger said: Their
resistance continues and will still con-
tinue. They will ever struggle for in
dependence, liberty and justice" AS

combination of Mishaps Responsible
For Absence of J. S. Byers.
From saturdays Daily.l
/ ]. S. Byers appeared at the Caster
house this morning and the great
mystery of his disappearance has
been settled and solved. Mrs. Byers
arrived here few days ago from
Galesburg, and expected that Mr.. By
ers would meet hc.. She was some
what surprised to ind that he had not
and in the absence of any letters from
him she became alarmed and institut-
ed a general inquiry in this city and
at points where she supposed he might
be-
Mr. Byers was seen today by
Courier representative and he ex-
planned that the mystery" about his
disappearance was simply the result
of misunderstanding between him
self and family. He had not expected
that they would get to OttumWa as
soon as they had. He said that since
he left here early in the month that
he had travelled eight or nine thou
sand miles thru Kansas, Indian Terri
tory, Oklahoma and Texas, having
been on the coast IN the latter Stale.
He had written to his wife half
dozen times at Atlanta, Missouri, but
as she had gone to Galesburg to visit
and had come to Ottumwa sooner than
he had expected, she had not received
the letters, hence the mystery"
Mr.. Byers said that his delay in get
ting here was occasioned by his
going to Texas. which trip was some
what unexpected. He has property
interests here and expects to make his
home in Ottumwa. He was not in
clined at first to consent to any mem
ton of his name in print, but as he
realized that he was the second man
reported to have disappeared from
this city within short time, he said
he would not object to this mystery"
being settled in the public mind.

WILL REDUCE WAR TAX.
Internal Revenue Collector kemble on
the Situation.

Burlington, Nov 27.-"The war tax
is to be greatly reduced by congress
at its session which will open next
month" said Hon. j. M Kemble, of
Burlington, United States revenue col
lector for the southern district of To-
wa, at the federal building to an Iowa
State Register representative on We'd
nesday. Mr.. Kemble is there for the
federal court session. The president,
Secretary Gage and the commissioner
of internal revenue are making UP the
new scedule of war taxes at Washing
ton now. They will recommend a
great many changes, to take effect at
the beginning OF the next fiscal year,
which, in the government service, be-
gins July 1. In all probability, they
will cut off, among the first, the one
cent stamp tax on kilograms and ex-
press receipts. When this tax was
first put on the list, it was intended
that the corporations should pay the
extra cost, but they got around the
intent and the people have paid the
tax.
"One thing that will not be changed
| think, is the beer tax of dollar a
barrel. The men who regulate the bus
mess realize that the beer tax ques-
tion is about as Senator Dolliver stat
ed it in one of his speeches. Dolliver
thought the beer tax works less hard
ship than almost any other. The
brewers pay the dollar, and they can
afford it, he said. They make it up
on the price to the wholesalers and re-
tailers. The saloon keeper gets even
by holding the glass little farther
from the spigot and running in lit
| tie more wind and little less beer.
The foam brings the level up to the
top and the customers don't miss the
difference They can drink more
glasses without getting drunk, and no.
bcdy is the loser So the beer tax
works we'll alb around
Another tax that will be continu-
| ed" added Mr.. Kemble, sis the tax on
checks. In the last war, when the ex-
| ira taxes were tackled on for long
| time. the revenue on the checks was
| the last the government gave up. 1t
will probably be the same way this
time. The tax on proprietary medi-
cires may be reduced, but will proba-
lbly not be cut off entirely just yet
The Spanish war tax will have been in
force three years when the change to
be made by this congress takes effect.
1t began July l, 1898, and the change
will be made July |, 1901.
