PUSHES AUTO FIFTEEN MILES.

Frederick Bredel civil engineer Of

ord for pushing automobiles. At four
O'Clock the other morning he arrived in
the city. having pushed his Boston
gasoline machine IS miles in FIVE hours
and 40 minutes. The record is even
better than it looks. for he had the
extra handicap OF a young lady guest.
This is believed to surpass anything
ever before accomplished in this couE-
try. Mr.. Bredel and his guest went TO
Waukesha in the conventional. style OF
auto riders. They tried TO Genre back
in the same way. but the gasoline gave
out. They we're stranded en- steep
hill in farming country at ten o'clock
at night. There was no help TO be
found. and Mr.. Bredei could rot get
any gasoline for love or money. The
young woman had TO get home, so Mr..

and started his slow journey 10 town

him gasoline was an all-night drug

University of Chicago Student Pre-
fers a Wife 10 the Possession

President Harper, of the University
Of Chicago, and the heads of the grad
uate divinity school believe that mar
ried life interferes with intellectual
pursuits. and prefer 10 have the divin
ity students WOO the clustered muse
rather than maidens, so when John
William Bailey, the possessor of a
scholarship amounting to S125 year,
was married TO Miss Celestina Wood.
of Franklin, Ind, during the holidays,
the faculty revived an old rule and
withdrew Bailey's scholarship. The
rule provides that any student in the
divinity school having a scholarship
shall forfeit it if he marries at any
time during his course. 1t was schol-
arship or bride with Bailey. and he
chose the latter. I'm not bit sorry
for it, either" he declared. The
gain more than exceeds the loss"
Both bride and groom are graduates
of Franklin college. Indiana, and it was
there that Bailey began his courtship.
which resulted in what he calls ''be-
ginning the century right" The we'd
ding took place at Franklin and the
couple are living at 6124 Ingleside av-
enue. Chicago. Bailey is popular among
the divinity men, who are at present
cutting classes to call on him and offer
their congratulations. Bailey is %

Exports of rhfs Machine, a~ Well as
OF Tools and Other Machinery,
Are Consta atty Incressfng-
Last Years Reeord.

Exports of American tools and ma
chinery do not show the shrinkage in
volume which recent reports would in
dictate. Some concern has been ex-
pressed BY leading export houses by
reason Of a falling off in foreign orders
due to the high prices of iron and steel
In this connection it will be interesting
10 note that the exports of builders
hardware, saws and tools during the
fiscal year 1900 were the largest in the
history of our export trade, being So
646.O17, against S7.s42.372 in 1899. So
627 400 in 1897 and s5.5Oo. 1913 in 1896,
prior to which year the exports in this
line had never aggregated SO much as
5000 goo.
Whileour chief market for machinery
is still TO be found in European coun-
tries. an increasing proportion is being
sold in the far east, especially in Brit
ism Australasia. Japan and India. In
1895 our exports of builders hardware
and tools to British Australasia
amounted 10 ss77635. in 1900 they ag-
gregated 81 .325 1913; in 1898. our exports
in this line to Japan were SIG. 500. while
in 1900 they were Si06.251. Our exports
of typewriters 10 British Australia STA IN
lsss amounted TO $50, 03o. while in the
fiscal year 1900 they were $1oi .o02; to
Japan the exports of typewriters it
1898 amounted to but S4.22O; in 1898
they had increased to $T262. and in
1900 to sI6,57e, of which sum s221I

velopment in this article Of export.
Commenting upon the increase in ex-
ports of typewriters. a prominent
American manufacturer is quoted by
the New York Commercial as saying:
THE demand for American typewrit-
ers was never greater. and our ma
chimes are pretty good glohe-trotters.
We have just made a shipment to Pun
tas Arenas. on the Straits Of Magellan.
at the extreme southern point of South
America. and another lot of iypewrit-
ers has been sent north TO Xladivostock.
Russia. for the use of the imperial gov
eminent. Many OF the missionaries and
foreign business men in China use our
machines. and nearly every American
regiment in the Philippines has from
three TO five machines; and as business
+ increases at Manila under American
auspices there will be big demand for
typewriters- The typewriter has be-
come we-l-nigh universal in its use. and
is found in all the large business houses
/ in the principal cities of the world. and
its keyboard represents nearly all Ian
guages. The exceptions are the Jap
anese and Chinese. As their charac-
tiers are upright and composed of many
hundred figures or signs. it seems prac-
tically impossible to produce them on
the typewriter's keyboard"

NO STRIKES THERE.
Compulsory Arbitration of Labor
Disputes in New Zealand.
system Hax Had a SIX Years Trial
and la Found TO Work sstisfmc-
forfiy-Law Governing wom-
an and Child Labor.

Fl. H. Lusk, formerly a member OF
parliament of New Zealand, was be-
fore the industrial commission at
Washington the other day. He ex-
planned the system Of arbitration in
New Zealand, which, he said. had been
extremely satisfactory. This system
was in the form Of compulsory arbitra-
ton. and ii had six years tria.. The
fact thatthere is compulsory arbitra-
ton there made both employees and
employers very careful as TO the JUS
tiee of their cases before they act.
In these courts of arbitration in New
Zealand no lawyers are allowed to
appear; only the interested parties are
heard.
Labor organizations in New Tea
land are generally incorporated aud
they found no disadvantage in such in
corporations.
The arbitration law had been favored
by the employees and fought by employ
ers before it was enacted. Up TO last
year three-fifths OF all labor in New
Zealand was organized. Practically
the scales OF wages in New Zealand are
made by the labor organizations for
the men outside the unions as well as
those within them. The arbitration
court of New Zealand never fixes the
maximum rate of wages; IL simply
fixes the maximum rate OF wages that
can be paid. The operation of this
system, he said, does not hamper in
dustries, for the reason that in the six
years it has been in operation the in
dustries OF New Zealand have increased
oue-third; this was by an increase in
old industries and the springing up of
new ones.
The eight-hour law prevails in New
Zealand. No woman can be employed
in factory there until she is at least
IS years Of age and then she can be en-
p,oyed not more than Al hours a week
which allows an eight-hour day and a
half holiday for her.
No child can be employed in a fac.
tory under Is years of age. Parent.
are subject TO fine and imprisonment
if they do not send their children to
school certain number of hours daily
Children must attend school three
days out of four. and. he said. stats
tics show that 29 per cent. more chill
dren are in school in New Zealand thar
in any other country in the word.

DOG GOES THROUGH PUMP.
Terrier Is sucked In and Elected
UniRJured at Bridgeport

A terrier belonging TO Engineer Nc
Arthur went through the pumps of the
Bridgeport pumping station at Chica-
go the other day and was none the
worse for it's trip. 1t had been playing
on the footbridge over the race. or in
take. from the south branch when il
tumbled into the black waters that
flow from the stock yards region.
Five of the pumps were in operation
and a swift current was running in
ward. Before the dog could reach the
narrow bridge around the basin he was
sucked under the arch into the center
pump well. a fireman who saw the
plight and apparent end of the beast
walked around to the engine house TO
tell the engineer of the mishap.
Macarthur looked into the SETTLING
waters pouring from the pump and saw
his dog vomited forth. 1t fell into the
canal basin and foated swiftly away.
A few minutes later the dog. wet and
staggering. came into the engine room
and for half day lay sick on a pile of
waste, finally recovering completely.

GERMANY'S INDUSTRY.
Measured by the Consumption of Coal
and of Iron IL shows Adj
vnncement.

The year book of the German Mari
time union for 1901, quoted by Con-
sui Hossfeld, at Trieste, in a report to
the state department. regards the
consumption of coal and iron as the
most reliable measure of industrial
activity in Germany. The consump-
tion of coal rose from 4,74T pounds per
capita in 1896 TO 5,1s5 pounds in 1898,
and of iron from 271 pounds per cap
ita in 1896 to 800 pounds in 1895. The
revenue derived by the kingdom Of
Prussia in 1895 from the produce of
its forests amounted to S19,27S, 600, an
increase of nearly 100000 as COM
pared with 1896. The growing con-
sumption of meat. sugar and beer is
also mentioned as an additional sign
of economic prosperity. Consul Hoss-
field says that while the average per-
son in Germany contented himself
with 1913 quarts of beer in 1896. he in
creased his allowance TO 131 quarts in
1898. The freer use of animal food
is shown by the larger revenue de-
rived from the meat tax, the increase
being estimated at fully Is per cent
in the space of two years.
