civilian the Sudden.n

His august majesty william III, en-
peros of Germany and king of Prussia.
who is probably the most energetic of
European monarchs, is certainly the
epitome Of perpetual motion. As a
pattern of activity he should be ex-
tolled by the parents of all small boys
who show a tendency to laziness. The
emperor is never idle, albeit he does
not always occupy himself in a way
pleasing to his royal acquaintances,
and when William III makes up his
mind to do thing he does it in a
hurry. The sobriquet OF William the
Sudden" applied to the kaiser by the
novelist Chambers, tells exactly the
leading trait of this most active Of
rulers
A good story is going the rounds
now anent the kaiser. II seems that
he has happy little whim of unex-
pectedly swooping down upon such Of
his garrisons as are In his vicinity. The
officers never know at what hour he
will put in an appearance and conse-
quently are kept on the qui vive from
morning until night. Not long ago
the kaiser arose at an early hour and
decided to watch the morning parade
at the Potsdam barracks. Drill hour
was 6 a. m. The kaiser and a count
arrived promptly on time, found the
soldiers ready, but no officer to drill
them. 1t was fully half an hour later
before the officer arrived His state Of
mind can easily be imagined But he
braced up and put his men through
their drill. The kaiser made no re-
marks on his lack Of punctuality and
galloped away when drill was over.
All day the unfortunate officer wait
ed In his quarters. expecting nothing
less than dismissal from the army.
Not until evening did he hear from
William the Sudden. Then small
package was handed to him. Opening
it. he found that 1t contained hand
some nickel alarm clock.
Thus the kaiser retained the services
OF a valuable soldier and at the same
time signified his displeasure. The story
does not say so, but the probability is
that William the Sudden has no more
devoted officer In the army today than
the man who was late at drill hour.

Albion w. Tourgee, United States
consul at Bordeaux. France. writing to
the authorities at Washington, says:
During the last two months an eff
fort has been in progress to induce an
American shipbuilder of reputation to
establish a branch shipyard here.
There seemed TO be no reason why a
profitable arrangement should not be
made. French capitalists are eager to
invest In steel ships. The bounty
given by the government is in itself
very attractive. The prices offered by
parties desiring to own ships were
much In advance of what lis paid In
other countries," Mr.. Tourgee thinks
that the immediate future will make no
more pressing demand on France than

of an army OF 5.OtA troops for six
months about l.000,000 rations will be
required, not counting waste. The
weight of a ration varies from 212 to
3 pounds. according 10 the kind
Of bread and meat supply. The total
weight of l.OGJ,O00 rations as parceled
out in individual portions is from
2.500,O00 to 100000 pounds. or 1,25O
to 1900 tons. The cost of the supply,
according to government methods Of
computation, would be about $4O0, 600.
Since the army was called upon to
serve In foreign parts the government
has cut red tape in the matter Of ra-
tions, giving commanders the power
to buy in the markets nearest the seat
Of war. This Is wise, because troops
engaged in monotonous service need
variety In food. The American sol
dier's stomach demands, next to
wholesome food, a full ration of pal
atable meat. Salted and preserved
meats, no matter what their nature,
are not relished as a steady diet.
Hence the meat supply will be the
most troublesome problem for the Ca
terers to the army in China.
If the soldiers could be turned over
to Chinese caterers for month, they
might learn some lessons in dietetics.
The Celestials are not hungry for ami
NAL food. They use meat as a season
ing for rice and vegetables rather than
for It's nourishing properties. Even
then they serve 1t smothered in other
components of the feast for to carve
meat at the table Is ''barbarism."

A GOOD OIL PROPERTY.

With the growth of the oil industry in
California many prosperous companies
have been organized and their successes
show what good chances small investors
have of receiving large and quick returns
for moderate outlay The London Oil
Company may be taken as a fair sample.
1t is one of the most ably and energetical-
ly managed of any in the State and bids
fair to become as good a paying invest
ment as we could present to our readers.
With such men as c. II. Phillips, a San
Jose capitalists; Hon. j. NJ. Gleaves, u. s..
Surveyor Generals Hon. James G. Ma
guire, ex-U. S. Congressman; G. II. Duns-
moor, Secretary California Bank Commits
sioners. and o. A. Lane, Secretary Fresno
Alpha Oil Co., as its Board of Directors,
there is no doubt of its ultimate success.
Having 5000 acres of land selected and ex-
amined by an expert, in the Fresno-Sa
Bento and the Coalinga Districts, there
is every assurance that the purchasers of
its worcestershire treasury stock at the
present selling price, so cents per share
$1OO per share Profits will accrue to this
company from three sources, from the
royalties, from lease of land to subsidiary
compares. from sale of lands at a great

ments. Further information will be gladly

of a Southern Pacific freight train near
Keswick, two men were killed-an un-
known man and AL Bryan Of Denver,
Col James Hart of Charter Oak, Iowa,
had leg amputated and B. Woodruff
of Ashland, Col, received a compound
fracture of the leg. Charles Alexander
of Ohio had his ankle sprained. All
were riding on a fiat-car loaded with
lumber. The axle of the car broke and
five cars were piled up in confusion.
The unknown dead mans body was
severed in twain. Bryan had both legs
severed near the trunk. He died 10
minutes after the accident. He said
he left a wife and three children in
Denver. He was a sailor and claimed
to have been with Dewey at Manila.

As nnally adopted, the United States
naval increase program Tor 1901 involves
the construction OF 81 vessels of l5l 900
tons displacement, or more than double
that LAID down in any preceding year.
The list which congress is to be asked to
authorize is three $4,000 ton battlcships,
two $4,000 ton armored cruisers, six 1000
ton gunboats, six 500 ton gunboats, 10
POO ton gunboats, three $4,000 ton colliers,
one 1908 ton repair snip and one 1000 ton
transport.
The board of construction has decided
to omit the torpedo boats both surface
and marine, recommended by the policy
board Of which Admiral Dewey is chair
man, but the program in all other par
ticulars conforms closely to the initial
project under discussion two weeks ago.
The program makers have confined Their
projects TO ships for defense, for police
and for naval auxiliary by the new con
ditions imposed on the navy by the in
creasing Importance of American power
in the far east.
The % gunboats are intended for police
duty, principally in the Philippines, al
3 though uu"p1dolS Aoi sSiNiOS III Siiii'
The 200 ton gunboats will be the smallest
war vessel, except torpedo boats, evel
built for the navy, but they will be of the
size recommended by all officers of eXpe
rience in the Philippines as essential t.
preserve order among the new island pos
sessions.
The proposed maritime transport is t.
be like the Solace, but half again as large
and armed with light guns, she is needed
by the marine corps, which now has 81,
thousand dependent upon the Solace or Oh
army ships for transportation. The new
vessel is to have accommodations for tw'
battalions, and to have high speed, for tn
purpose of getting a force quickly to
point of disturbance, her headquarters be

TRADE REPORT.

Bradstreet's report for last week
says: Unreasonable warm weather
continues the leading unfavorable fea-
ture of distributive trade because of
the character given to retail distribu-
ton, and therefore to recorder business
in most lines of dry goods, wearing ap-
parel and shoes. Conservatism, in
view Of the near approach of election,
is undoubtedly an element exercising
considerable influence, particularly in
stock speculation, but a conspicuous
exception to this is found in the re-
awakening of demand and the advance
in prices shown in the iron trade in
widely separated sections. This is
really one of the most important devel-
opments of the week, and is taken as
indicating not only that confidence in
election results is felt but consumers
stocks are down to minimum. Fail
ures naturally show expansion over
the same period year ago, but are
much more favorable than in preceding
years.
Speculation on the various exchang-
es has ruled rather slow. In wheat
the moving feature has been the reit-

ducing some advance, much of which
was lost later.
