Britain and from SIC to $21 in the Unit
ed States; ship carpenters from $9.1S to
s9.4S in Great Britain and from $12 to
s24 In the United States; riggers from
$500 to $S.76 In Great Britain and from
sl1 TO slS in the United States; paint
ers from 1929 to 1915 in Great Britain
and from s12 to SIS in the United States.
All these wages are per week. The two
steamers used for illustration by Mr..
Chamberlain cost $72 per ton in the
United States and $57 per ton in Great
Britain. A similar instructive incident
is cited by William r. Curtis in his
correspondence for the Chicago Record.
1t occurred in 1898, when vessels Of the
same size, design and materials were
built for $335,OO0 in the United States
and s2l7,OO0 In Great Britain. or at the
rates respectively of $50 and $53 per
ton. Plates were then worth more in
this country than in Great Britain.
The truth of the matter is that
American shlpbuilding is an infant in
dustry which needs government en-
couragement To give that encourage
ment Is to apply the doctrine of Protec-
tion, so well vindicated on land, to the
high seas.

In reply to the inquiry of corres-
pondent. If the president should die
before March 4, the secretary Of state
would qualify as president for the un-
expired part of the present term. there
being now no vice president. On March
4, however, the vice president-elect
would undoubtedly be inaugurated as
president, it being taken for granted
that the electoral college would be re-
convened and that it would name him
as its second choice. After the inaug-
uration of the vice president-elect as
president there would be no vice
president but the senate would elect
its presiding officer and in the event
of the new presidents death. the sue
cession would go successfully to the
secretary of state. secretary Of the
treasury. secretary of war, secretary of
the navy, postmaster general and at
torney general in the order named. Let
us hope, however, that none of these
contingencies will arise.

fact that "women" who are not qualified

tisements worded in such a deceptive
manner that YOU are apt TO overlook the
important fact thai the woman is not
physician.
The great success of DR.. r. V. Pierce,

HOW He GOT HIS BREAKFAST
RAILROAD BOYS HAVE AMUSING
EXPERIENCE WITH TRAMP.
Salt Lake Lumberman Pays For
Square Meal For shrewd WAN
dering Willie"

Charles A. Walker of the Chicago
Northwestern relates a funny exper-
fence while coming down from Idaho
on the train on Friday night It ap-
pears that a party of railroad boys
were playing an innocent game of
slough in the Pullman, when their rev
els were rudely broken into by the
sounds of a man apparently in mortal
agony that proceeded from beneath the
floor of the car. Walker called the
porter, who proceeded to listen, and
then, with a Mortified yell. exclaimed.
Oars a man bein' groun ter pieces
for shuar," and then bolted for the
brakeman. The brakeman in turn call
ed the conductor, and all hands put
their ear to the floor Sure enough,
there was a weird wailing noise to be
heard above the rattle Of the wheels.
It was but the work of an instant for
Tim Kinney to jerk the air cord, but
from some cause the brake refused to
answer Immediately.
Finally the train was brought to a
ssandstill, about a mile this side of Or
tramp who was supposed to be dying
on the trucks was instituted Finally
member of the Tattered Tins Tie
Tr0tting association was discerned
upon the roof of the Pullman and
promptly fred. After discussing the
situation of the fate of the poor tramp
all hands decided to turn in. Five min
utes later Walker was nearly scared
