STRIKERS FIGHT IS UNEQUAL.
Iron and Steel Trust Controls Produc-
ton and Cannot Lose.

It is the custom to say that every d2,
during he continuance of the iron ana
steel workers strike capital is losing 50
many hundreds of thousands more. Peo-
pie and papers say it, because it ex-
presses what used to be true 1t is net
true in this case. 1t is not true in any
case where trust gains a monopoly III
any branch of production That is
wherein this fight is so fatally unequal.
What the strikers lose while the mills
are shut down is gone from them for
ever. Whether they win or lose their
fight, their lost wages will never come
back to them But it is not so with the
trust.
Just so much iron and steel produce
viii be demanded by the consuming pub
lie, strike or no strike. The stock on
hand will be sold for a higher price. The
difference in price will nearly or quite
make up for the loss of profits while the
mills are closed. When they reopen pro-
du"tion will be pushed little faster w
til the demand is supplied and another
surplus is accumulated. Consumers viii
have lost something. Workingmen who
have been idle will have lost much. The
steel trust will have lost nothing.-BCS-

Horizontal Rain on Eiffel Tower.
The Effcl Tower forms a meteoro.og-
since its completion in 1889 careful rec
crds have been taken of the condition
of the air at its summit Being so much
above the surrounding country, the
strength of the wind and the temgera-
ture are absolutely different from what
they are near the ground level The
meteorological Instruments are all fixed
on the topmoSt platform Of the tower.
and are connected electrically with
station below. In this way hourly rec
crds can be obtained from all these i'll
StrumentS without the necessity Of as
cending the tower
1t Is curious to note that it has proved
impossible to obtain any satisfactory roc
ord Of the rainfall at the summit. The
wind there is SO strong that the rain
drops move practically horizontally. and
do not fall into the gauge Even in heavy
rains the gauge has registered nothing,
and. further, all horizontal surfaces in
the neighborhood have been quite dry
while water has been streaming from the
vertical surfaces In ordinary weather
the speed of the wind at the summit of
the tower proves to be more than three
times as much as at level cf seventy
feet above the ground. For 30 per cent.
of the year this speed exceeds eighteen
miles an hour, Il matter Of Importance

In the days Of wild cat money in the

The very name of Oliver Ames Son, was

On the same principle Benson's Porous
Plaster is the universal standard external
remedy. To say it is good" plaster does
not describe it 10 is the best possible plaster.
For every disease in which an external rem
edy is available, Benson's Plaster Is used
almost as a matter of course.
Benson's Plaster quickly relieves and
cures where other modes of treatment are
either exasperatingly slow or have no good
effect whatever. Coughs, colds. lunbago,
kidney trouble, rheumatism, lame back,
stc. are at once benefited and soon cured.

STREET SIGNS IN MOSCOW.
Painted Reproductions of the Goods
Sold Within the sbopr.

There Is one custom In st. Peters
burg, holding all over Russia, so droll
that all foreigners laugh at 1t. The shop
holders have huge signs over the misera-
Die peepholes they call windows, and
these signs are painted with the repro
duetion OF the wares that are In the
shops. This was formerly a great con-
venience TO those who could not read,
and even at the present day was not too
much ridieuled by myself
One would get along famously in Rus
STA could he read the jaw breaking
tongue. but the letters In some fronts and
street corners look like the signs of the
zodiac to the average foreigner and do
not mean as much. IL one could read
and form an idea Of syllables. the veriest
idiot would have passable knowledge of
sufficient travelling Russia in a month.
But the language bars you out and bowls
you over, because perforce you do not
know the tifty-two letters that resemble
tripods and crescents and scarfpins and
Inverted RS and other things. So the
signs do very well.
For example, dairy win have a dem
onstration on each side OF the door,
where n COW will stand, flanked by
couple OF tubs of butter and leaning
against background OF cheeses. while
glasses of foaming milk stand temptingly
round. | was going to say that a pile of
eggs was another feature. but never IN
less the hen who is responsible for them
Is portrayed loudly clucking over their
freshness. In spite of this. | never ate
a fresh egg In st. Petersburg. A fur
shop will have most fascinating array
of fur lined garments and sealskin coats
painted on its doors that win almost tear
you out OF your droshky. and the fruit
stores riot with every color in the rain
bow and exhibit likenesses OF fruits that
have never grown in Russia or anywhere
else. And peaches. by the way, and nee
tarines OF good. sweet growth are about
so cents apiece here.
The signs lend great color and gayety
TO the streets, although you really never
care to buy anything. The goods are oil
very mussy and cheap, and the famous
Russian silver not nearly so artistic nor
so handsome as our own. In leather aud
In marble this northern people excel the

a warship sent to Venezuela to settle

The State De2a' tmeDt having SO far

Venezuela is guilty of persistent out
rage against American officials and

AS the first step toward the chastise-

silence which creates a position of
menace toward Venezuela.
