BECOMING MONEY LENDERS.
Germans Rapidly Rising in Impor-
lance in the Financial Affairs
: of Nations.

n Y. The state department has received
from Consul General Guenther, at
Frankfort, some statistics showing
the amount of German capital ex-
pended in strans-oceanic countries.
The report states: Germany is rap
idly rising in Importance as a money
lending as well as a money-making
nation. It has hundreds of millions
in various parts of the globe. In
North Africa Germany has invested
nearly $3,000,O00. In South Africa the
German element has lost it's identity
as part of the empire, emigrants hav-
ing taken on new citizenship. Invest
ments in Cape Colony are estimated
at nearly $10,C00,OO0. In the Trans
vaal, $170,000,0O0; in East Africa, $685.
100000; in Asia, exclusive of Turkey,
$16O,O00,O0O has been expended. In
Mexico the figures are $95,2OO,OOO; in
Central America, 9,5oO,ooO; in the
West Indies, $50, 100000. .
''In South America the investments
are estimated at 1851 100000; in North
America between 1852 100000 and
s1,190,0O0,OO0. Altogether the German
empire has nearly $2,3SO, 100000 work
ing for the welfare of it's citizens in
various parts of the world"

SHORT ORANGE CROP.
Opportunity Created for the Ameri-
can Grower by Failure of Crop
at Valencia, Spain.

Consul Horace Lee Washington re-
ports that a shortage in the orange
corp at Valencia, Spain, this year,
and the certainty, since the frosts
of early March in this district, of
still shorter corp next year, offers
an opportunity for American pro-
ducers to take advantage of the de-
mand and of the greatly increased
price in England and Germany.
The total export of oranges from
the Valencia district last season
amounted to 100000 cases. Ship
ments to date this year have reached
100000, and are estimated at 3,OOO,-
900 cases for the entire season, which
is not expected to last more than an
other month.
A number of che oranges remaining
have been secured by spectators to
forward overland to Paris, where high
prices are expected during the EXPOSE
ton. The visible scarcity has al
ready produced an advance in prices
all around.
A good case Of oranges cannot be
obtained on the ground at present
under S345, while prices in England
which last season averaged $2.44 to
$2.92. have now advanced to $3.65 to
$4.39, and will undoubtedly be much
higher

KHAKI AS TENT MATERIAL.
A Test of Its Utility to be Made During
the Summer by United States
Navy.

There have been some interesting
tests of khaki for use as tent material
in the army and marine corps, and so
far the tests made by both services
have been satisfactory. The tests of
the khaki tent material by the war
department are still in progress. The
commandant of the marine corps has
secured the manufacture in New York
city of 100 tents made from the serv-
ice 10 and IL ounce khaki material.
These tents are now completed and
will be inspected by Maj Charles L.
McCawley, assistant quartermaster
They will be shipped to Annapolis,
Md, where they will be used at the
naval academy by the marine battal-
ion, which : will be encamped there
during the summer.
These marines are now CHARTERED on
the Santee, but the force, numbering
eight officers and 200 men, under
command of Capt. Louis J. Magil, will
go into camp soon. This command
will be maintained as model camp
for the instruction of officers and
men. .,.a. 5,~-...s rs-s-

MEND COVERING OF A HEART.
Successful Operation by Surgeons
Mt St. Johns Hospital, Long
Island City.

A remarkable operation was per-
formed in St. Johns hospital, Long Is
land City, the other night. The phvsi-
clans present saw the beating of a hui
man heart and put five stitches in the
pericardium, the covering of the heart.
Fritz Brandt, German mason, of
Steinway, was brought to the hospital
suffering from a pistol wound in the
breast, self-inhieted After the man
had been placed under ether DR.. Burns
discovered that the bullet had shat
tered the breast bone and that splin-
ters had penetrated the right lung and
cut the pericardium.
The patient remained alive for five
hours after the operation. An autopsy
showed that death was due to hem
orrhages and not to the injury to the
heart.

and Does All the Work 8
without Aid.

Findlay, O.. has woman carpen-
ter. Mrs. Amanda James,5a Wel-to-do
widow, residing on Washing ton ave.
nue., one of the principal residence
streets, and a woman prominent in
womenS club circles, has just fin;
ished building a complete little. sum
mer house. Every spadeful Of ex-
cavation, every stone of the foundar
ton, and every nail IN the building
have been the work Of Mrs. James
own hand. 49,
Mrs. James said: 81 am an earnest
believer in the independence and self
aintenance of Womankind:- re-
joice to think that to-day more girls
are earning their own living by the
work Of their hands than ever be.
fore Woman is no longer merely a
doll in the hand of man. She is mans
fellow citizen, and should be recog-
nized as such.
s'There was ascarcity of carpenters.
I wanted my summer house built at
once. They told me I would have
to wait. But my house is almost
done, and began work just one week
ago" " f.
The summer house is "a one-story
building about 15x2O. It is as neat
~ put up as any master carpenter
could do it. Mrs, James has used
"patent siding,'' and every nail is
driven straight to the mark. Not a
hammer mark is to'ssbe found around
any nail head. Her aim was true.
The other morning she put the
sheeting on the roof and had the.
house shingled by night. Mrs. James
is a fine looking woman of about go.

Nom the Indianapolis Press.
A tramp, attired in silk tile and Prince
Albert coat, set East 9th street agog with
conjecture yesterday. Spotless linen
clean-shaven face and glib tongue added
to the makeup of the beggar. Many
thought MIN to be an estray from the
ranks Of the Cook County Marching Club OF
Chicago, which cut such a dash here dur
ing the Bryan notification meeting last
week.
Early yesterday morning he appeared at
the kitchen door Of the home Of Fred o.
Ball. Ash and 9th streets. He trembled
as he spoke of the hardship that Ill luck
had forced upon him. He leaned on a gold
headed cane as he told Mr.. Ball Of his
hunger
This is my first visit to any mans back
door, my friend he said in a tone Of
pathos. This is the first time / ever
begged in my life. and I'll give you this,
my last nickel. for bite of breakfast" He
held out a nickel to the man whom he
sought to be his good Samaritan, but Mr..
Ball refused 1t.
Mr. Ball led him into the kitchen. and
soon the handsome beggar was making
away with bowl Of oatmeal and Offering
profuse thanks between spoonfuls. He had
the tone of a polished man, and when he
had finished good meal he arose to go.
Turning to MIR. Ball, he said: MY young
friend you Will yet hear from this act of
kindness. I am music teacher by profess
sion and have taught in some of the best
Conservatives in the country. Misfortune
overlook me and / confess that right now
l am holding the short end. But I'll pull
out yet and will remember YOU
Tears trickled down the fellows face as
he left his benefactor and wendell his way
toward the railroad yards.
