South Wants Good Shoes.


manufacturer of cheap and low-grade
shoes, such as have been the most salable
during the past three or four years, recent
ly asked a shoe buyer from the south:
when are you going to buy some cheap
shoes?"
The jobber replied: when we get five
cent cotton. and not till then. Just as long
as our planters can obtain the current
price on their cotton and the colored peo-
pie OF the cotton belt can earn as much
money as during the past year. there will
be little or sale for cheap shoes Every
shoe jobber In the south who has any Of
these low-grade sheepskin other shoes OF
kindred nature must hold them, as the re-
tailers cannot sell them. The colored people
who thought they were well shod with
shoe for which they paid $1.25 and which
the manufacturer sold for 9Oc. to 92hsc,
cannot be induced to look at them now at
any price. They want kid or a chrome
calf shoe. and will pay $3.50 for 1t, or even
more. They even want silk hats. All OF
which goes to show that the demand for
anything cheap or Of poor quality Is not
from choice, but from necessity. And so
say not until We get back to fiye-cent cot
ton shall we buy any more cheap Shoes

English of the English.

From Harper's Magazine.
That hackneyed American maiden who
said London was a nice place II you knew
the language was not a bit absurd. we
speak English but we have built up our
forms of English expression upon the En-
glish of a few shires Of the old country
as 1t was spoken between two and three
centuries ago, while they have been blend
ing and changing the speech of all their
home peoples during the same period The
result is that an American can hardly utter
a sentence in England without calling at
tention to the difference between his speech
and that of the people about him. Only
yesterday, after eighteen months resi-
dence in England, l rushed up to con-
ductor in Charing Cross Station, and esk-
ed, Which car for Bromley He stared
at me, and l knew l had spoken a foreign
tongue to him, because street vehicles like
omnibuses and horse cars are called road
cars and tram ears, and there are no other
cars In England.
If you ask a guest at your home in Eng
land whether he likes his meat rare, he
asks what you said, because he does not
understand you. He calls meat underdone
when 1t Is not thoroughly cooked. II you
tell him you fear the asparagus is canned,
he is at loss again. because he would
have said it was timed. To ask him to
pass the powdered sugar will again set
him to wondering for he calls 1t icing
gar, generally, though he knows that it is
sometimes called caster or sifted sugar.
And IL you have candy on the table you
may not call it SO without betraying your
foreign origin. for he calls candy Sweets
abbreviated from "sweetmeats," and used
to designate all preserves, buildings, pies,
candies and jams.
To go farther along the eccentricities OF
English at the dining table, most persons
know, I suppose. that the beet Is called
beet root, cornstarch Is corn flour, corned
beef Cor particular cut OF it, is called
-"silversides Of beef" and napkins are

Ventilation Of TunncIs.

From the New York Sun.
1t is a matter Of great Importance to ven-
tilate long tunnels thoroughly for the COM
fort Of passengers and for the safety OF
the train crews. An interesting proof OF
the presence of bad afr In long tunnels Is
the fact that in certain European tunnels
each rail OF the permanent way loses
something like forty-f1ve pounds In weight
every three years. The Alberg tunnel IS
built on a sharp grade and Is ventilated by
the combustion of liquid fuel at the lower
end. Artificial ventilation has been resort
ed to In the ST. Gothard tunnel since
March. 1899. At Mount Cents compressed
air is carried through the tunnel In pipes
which are provided with stop-cocks at in
tervals. The train crews open these stop
cocks when a supply Of fresh air is needed.
The Romeo tunnel. on the Turin-Genoa
line, which Is nearly five miles In length,
has been ventilated. since July. 1900. by an
aspiratfng apparatus System Ser) 5A
meters In diameter. so that all the air Is
completely renewed every thirty minutes.
1t was In this tunnel in 1898 that the train
crews of three locomotives drawing freight
cars were asphy xiated. so that the train,
left to itself. ran down the grade and coll
lided with a passenger train at the lowest
end.

Americas Fairness to China.

The nearer the Chinese complication ap-
prcaches solution, the more satisfactory
and creditable the part Of the United States
throughout it all Is seen to have been.
Prompt, uncompromisng and vigorous in
the early work of rescuing the legations
and suppressing the Boxer outrages, our
government has been quite as strongly on
the side of moderation, reason and human
ity ever since. Our troops have been the
least guilty of any in the matter Of loot
ing. They have had no share in Won Wal
dersee's vengeance" raids. We took a
pronounced stand, almost to the point of
open rupture with some of the powers,
against the official stealing of valuable Chi
nese relics, and we were among the first
to withdraw our soldiers from Chinese soil.
All this has been SO thoroughly recognized
by the Chinese that mass meeting was
held in Pekin shortly before General Chat
fees departure, as testimonial Of appre-
citation and good will.
In the purely diplomatic matters OF in
demnity and terms of peace. our stand has
been for fairness and moderation. Our In
demnity demand is a relatively insignif-
cant portion Of the immense sum Of 45O,
900, 900 taeis more than $500 ,O00,000) for
mally demanded by the powers on May Q,
and we have made the effort repeatedly to
have this vast total reduced by at least
One-half.
