PROPOSED SHIPBUILDlNG
COMBINE.

With several of the largest and
most important ocean transport
fleets passing into the control OF
the Morgan interests and a gigan'
tic United States shipbuildlns COM
bine in process OF formation, the
ultimate maritime supremacy OF
this nation appears to be assured.
Following the confirmation OF
the deal whereby Mr.. Morgan se>
cured control Of the Leyland fleet
comes the announcement that he
has purchased the Atlantic lfans>
port and Red Star fleets, intending
to make out of them an Atlantic
line under European management.
These latter lines control nearly 80
vessels of large and modern con
struction, and added to the Ley>
land fleet will enable Mr.. Morgan
to control the largest transport line
in existence.
The plans and scope of the ship
building combine about to be
formed represent capitalization OF
sos ooo,o 900, and the requirement
OF plants having total annual cap>
acity Of 10000 tons, in which "a
900 men are employed. 1t is
claimed that the companies about
to be consolidated have orders on
hand for work to cost over So3 ooo,-
900
Such a consolidation, if consum-
mated, means much more than
revival OF the American merchant
marine. 1t promises to bring about
conditions that may mean ultimate
naval supremacy for the United
States. Indeed, the prospectus al
ready issued by the promoters Of
the combine contains the intorma>
ton that it "can lay down at one
time in its shipyards at least IL
battleships or first class cruisers, I3
cruisers, and FL torpedo boats or
destroyers, or 4o fighting ships. =.

CHAFFEE NOT A DIPLOMAT.

Mai. >Gen. Chaffee is a soldier,
but not diplomat. He has right
to his personal views, but there are
times and places in which it is not
proper to express them. Such IS
the tact in regard to his recent con-
ments on the relations between the
United States and Great Britain.
No sane person in this country
wants to see row between the
two nations, and desire only cons
tinuance of honorable friendly res
lations. Commercial and financial
intercourse between the two ma
tions is so intimate that war would
be disastrous for both. But Gen.
Chaffeee was impolitic in asserting
that in future world complications
the two nations would be found in
alliance. He is commanding the
United States forces in China and
occupies a position where his ex
pressions may be presumed to re
fleet the opinions and purposes OF
The national government. Other
nations. not accustomed to the free
and easy manner in which Amcrl>
cans are given to expressing their
opinions, are apt to draw unwar,
ranted inferences from the remarks
of an officer in Chaffee's position.
Continental nations have long sus>
pected> an alliance between this
country and England, and General
Chaffee's remarks will be taken as
conhlmatory of it.
There can be no question OF the
improperly OF major general,
commanding Unite d States forces
in foreign land, giving expression
to opinions in regard to future in
ternational relations, and it would
be proper for the administration to
remind General Chaffee that there
are occasions on which "silence is
golden.--Rocky Mountain News.

THEY HELP THE INVENTOR.
Patent Lroaers Often. Trove Friends to
Ingenious Mechanics.

Ingenious Mechanics.
Inventors, as everyone knows, are
deficient in business sense. Left to
themselves they seldom realize great
profit from their work. They offer
golden opportunity to business men,
who are not slow to take advantage
of it. Two types OF men make their
living out of the inventor. One is the
speculator, the other the legitimate
broker of inventions. There are not
SO many spectators as there used to
be twenty years ago. Many made for
tunes out of the supplemented inven-
tors. The most notable case was that
Of one who bought ten patents from
poor fellow in Washington for $4,000
and in the next ten years cleared
nearly 81, 100000 on them in this coun-
try and in Europe. Brokers have
progressed steadily and are now MEM
bers of recognized calling. Many
of them are thorough mechanics and
good, practical scientists. Such as
these are bound to be successful.
Others are merely clever statesmen,
who at times make money and at times
have their labor for their pains. Their
calling is full of odd and interesting
features. They meet inventors or
every type, from those who have
genius to those who are cranks and
1reamers 1t is among the latter that
they find queer inventions, some OF
which though ingenious are not pat
entable One of these was a police
mans club, which at the end was per-
| iorated so as to form a red pepper
Dox. A small spring in the handle
opened the box and enabled the WELD
er of the club to blind his enemy as
well as to beat him. A second spring
threw out as radii from the club
number of small knife blades, which
would cut to pieces the hand of any
one who tried to snatch the club away.
1t was refused patent by the exam
iners on the ground "of its cruelty and
inhumanity." Another nonpatentable
invention was lady's fan, in the stick
of which was concealed a poisoned
dagger second class of nonpatent-
able inventions are those which pro-
fess to do the impossible. OF these
the perpetual motion machine is most
frequently met with. Some inventors
devote themselves to little things. The
man who made the eggbeater realized
a small fortune. Another man, work
ing along the same lines, applied
similar mechanism to the handle OF
fan; by squeezing a knob, which acted
upon a strong spiral spring, the fan
revolved upon its center with great
|rapidity, and when the finger was re-
leased it reversed its motion and re-
volved the same number of times until
1t regained its original position. The
brokers receive commission upon
the sale of an invention or receive a
part interest in the patent for their
work.-New York Evening Post.

A Visit to the Excelsior Steam
Laundry.
Laundry.

Upon entering into the Excelsior
Steam Laundry OF this city person
cannot help but notice the many changes
and improvements that have been made
in this enterprise the last few months.
A new steam dry room at once catches
the eye, which contains seven shirt
drawers with a drying capacity OF 21O
shirts at one time in about one hour and
twenty minutes. 1t is OF The most mod
ern construction and is heated by about
500 feet of steam coils.
The asserting and wrapping room has
also been greatly improved and the ca
pacity more than doubled. Several new
tables and ironing boards are set up in
convenient places, and a new gas heated
body ironer has also been added. A
new boiler and engine room has been
built in the rear OF the building, and the
three large power washing machines
have been moved out Of the laundry
proper and now occupy convenient places
in the wash room.
The combined capacity OF the three
washers is $50 shirts at one time. A
large new boiler and engine Of the best
make adorn the engine room, which have
a capacity Of furnishing more than
double the amount of power now re-
quired OF them.
Mr. Buehring informs US that the total
expenditures on his plant this spring
will foot up nearly $150OOO. The bust
ness, he says, is very encouraging and
trade getting better right along. Eight
agencies have been established lately.
nearly all of them coming unsolicited.
1t is the intention Of the firm to accept
agencies in all OF the principal towns and
cities Of the western slope, as the capac-
ity Of the laundry has been increased to
1850 SHIRTS weekly, besides all other
kinds of work.
The rapid growth Of the trade speaks
for the quality OF the work done at this
popular place.
Ten regular employees are daily engag-
ed to do the work and oftentimes extra
help is hired to keep up the work as it
is not allowed to drag along as is GUS
tomary in some steam laudries.
1t is well worth anybody's time who is
not familiar with steam laundry work
to take little lay off and look over the
plant Mr.. Buehring informs US that
visitors are always welcome and will be
shown through" with pleasure.

Flags of the British.

The ancient flag of England had a
red cross, called st. Georges cross. on
white field. The flag OF Scotland
has ST. Andrews cross (white), shap-
ed like the letter X, on blue field.
In 1906. soon after the union of Scot
land with England, King James 1
blended the two flags by blazoning
the St. Georges cross on the Scottish
flag. This was the British flag until
ireland was taken into the union on
January 1, 1901, when her fiag-a red
st. Patrick cross-in form like the
St. Andrews, on a white field, was
combined with the other two. These
three crosses combined in the can

staff, on the upper left hand corner of

Examination of the cows supplying
the city of Manchester. England, with
milk. has shown that tuberculosis is
much less prevalent than commonly
supposed. An examination of 1887
cows showed only six udders to be
tuberculous after meteorological exam
ination, or number equal to about
80 per cent. In addition TO this official
examination of cows, 13J samples Of
milk were taken at various railway
stations representing the milk from
10S farms, at which there were 206S
milking cows, and In twelve cases the
milk was found to be tuberculous. On
examining the farms from which the
samples originated, 1t was only possl-
BILE to discover tuberculous uddcrs at
five of them.

no longer attracts attention on the
street. Since this article of wearing
apparel has come to stay the inventor
has taken it in hand t. improve on the
original style. and add to the comfort
to be derived from the garment. Miles
f. Johnson has just been granted a
patent on the shirt waist pictured
herewith, which comprises, something
more than plain row of tucks. These
tucks are deception to the eye, for
they are in reality series of separate
strip of cloth, overlapping each other
at the edges and attached to num-
Der of vertical strips underneath,
which serve to hold the tucks In place,
without interfering with the free cir
culation of air underneath the waist.
The movements Of the wearer's body
cause the tucks to .xr md and con-
tract, and this motion keeps up cir
culation of ;.ir around the body.
