THE STRIKE STILL UNSETTLED.

1t is profoundly to be regretted that
the executive board of the striking
steel workers and the managers of the
United States Steel Corporation failed
to reach an understanding. The in
dications now are that the differences
between the Amalgamted Association
and the corporation will have to be
fought out to finish. 1t will be test
of endurance. No doubt there will be
great deal of suffering among the
families of that portion of the strikers
who are small wage earners. The
strikers who earn high wages, 1t is
reasonable to suppose, have saved
enough to tide them over a long period
of idleness.
1t is to be hoped there will be no
exhibitions of violence. The chances
fact there has been violence already,
and in proportion as the corporation
makes efforts to run its mills with
non-union labor the violence will in
crease. The strikers will not quietly
permit the mills to be operated. A few
hands to do much of the work of the
mills, and that would mean that the
strikers would be out of job.
1t is plain to be seen that the United
States Steel Corporation feels itself
strong enough to break up the Anal
gamated Association. 1t finds that or
ganization so detrimental to it's in
terests that it is willing to make a
long and costly fight to get rid of it. 1t
probably thinks that it might as well
make the fight now as at any other
time. If the Amalgamated Association
should win it would undertake, doubt
less, to dominate, practically, the cor
poration, and it is pretty certain that
If the corporation wins it will take
steps to prevent the unions from again
getting SO firm footing in it's mills.
A long and bitter fight therefore may
| be looked for.

is put on the whole compressed and
fastened securely with iron or steel
bands; and not a great many pieces
are put in a bale. Thus the package
is easily handled, and the goods arrive
at their destination in good shape. That
is for the cheaper grades Of clothes.
Finer grades, such as prints, lawns,
etc, are packed in wooden boxes lined
with tin. Each piece is wrapped in
oil-paper, an oil-paper lining is placed
inside the tin lining, and when the box
is full the tin is Theoretically sealed
with solder and the top nailed on. The
box is then made secure with iron or
steel straps. This package also is made
small enough TO be handled by one or
at most two men. Finding such pack
ages safe from damp or ordinary dan
ger of damage, the foreign dealers nat
urally prefer them. The fact that
American goods may be bought at a
little cheaper initial cost does not COM
pensate for the losses that result from
bad packing.
For the Chinese trade, especially,
SAGdl GdlC Dc ldhGAls 1HC ASlll-
nese are an economical people. They
wish to buy pieces of cloth containing
just so much length and width and no
more. If the garment the Chinaman
has in mind calls for ten yards of
cloth, he does not want to buy eleven
yards or fifteen yards, and will not do
it. He is particular, too, about many
minor details which would receive no
attention from an American purchaser.
He believes in luck, good and bad
mostly the latter-and will not have
an article that is wrapped in paper of
an unlucky color or has an unlucky
design upon it. Even the shape of the
package or parcel has significance, for
good or evil, in his mind. 1t is to the
interest of the manufacturer, therefore,
to find out precisely what John wants,
in lengths, widths, colors, designs,
shapes, etc, and give it to him. The
manufacturer can afford to cater to the
trade, since John is a very good buyer
when he is pleased with the article Of
fered.
The wrapping and packing. therefore,
are very important matters to be re
garded in connection with foreign
trade. Heretofore Americans have not
given them the attention they deserve.
They have gone in principally for bulk,
weight and cheapness. This will not
do. All of the consuls are continually
saying this in their reports to the State
Department, and the American manu-
facturers and merchants who realize
this and govern themselves according
ly will make friends for their goods and
profits for themselves.

The sweetly simple, girlish names
We knew so long ago?
There are no Marys any more,
In this enlightened age;
The old names never used to-day

The Kitties are all "Kathyrines"
In this late age and day.
There are no NAMES any more,
For "Mayme" is the way
The Fanaies are all 'Fanys" now;
The girls we used to know,
Named Alice have all changed their
their names
Since 'Alys" is the go.
The Pearls have gone to join the rest.
For "Pyrle" is up to date;
The Helens spell it "Helyn" now,
For it is very late:
The Ediths are all "Edyths" now,
And much as we may rue,
The girls named Lille have gone Ger
They spell it "Lyly" too.

Here are some business maxims that
have guided Mr.. Thomas w. Lawson
to success, says Ainslees:
BE true to your best instincts.
BE thorough.
Never let anything pass you in your
business that you do not understand.
Trace every effect back to it's cause.
Otherwise you are not fully equipped
to carry on business.
Work with enthusiasm and with all
your powers. Do only one thing at a
time, and feel that thing is the most
important thing in the world while do
ing it.
I'm dealing with a man look him
straight in the eye. Then you are at
your best.
IF your enemy strikes at you and
hurts, don't let him see that he has
hurt you. Ridicule him, and strike
when your time comes.
Accept defeat philosophically.
Apply logic to all business PROPOSE
tions. If they will not stand the test
of logic, reject them.
"In the stock market, don't expect to
make money from following the tape.
No man can ever do it. Unless you are
on the inside, don't speculate.

increasing rotundity of person is a
source of grave alarm to his sense of
proportion, says the New York Sun.
When the real hot weather set in 1

duck trousers which l keep in stock

same lack of extension, and l reported
to my tailor and asked him to send
for them to see what could be done
That evening l stopped in to show him
what was needed.
1T isn't much of a job, 1 guess

to do to make them fit around the

as he looked at my figure and at the
trousers and the tape, "a V isn't in it

an uncomfortable feeling.

The Hamburg American Steamship
Company is going to have one of the
largest steamships in the world con-
structed shortly. She is to be of about
21,OOO tons, or approximately the same
tonnage as the Celtic, now the levia-
than of the ocean. While the new ship
is to be essentially German and sail
under the German flag, she is to be
built in Belfast, Ireland. The Germans
have the privilege of building or buy
ing their ships wherever they please.
Usually they build or buy at home, but
should the price be less in England,
Italy, America or elsewhere, they are
at liberty to make their trades for
ships there and sail them under the
German flag. This is privilege, and
very valuable one, that is not en-
joyed in the United States, and 1t is
doing much to increase the German
merchant marine.

The inevitable suggestion that Admi-
raj Schley be nominated for the presi-
denoy has made it's appearance. Let
the Democracy nominate Schley, and
the people will vindicate him." says a
Western paper. Has it been the custom
of this country to elect men to the
presidency for the purpose of giving
them personal vindication? We are not
able to recall case in which anything
of the kind occurred. Nominations to
the presidency are for the vindication
of principles, not men. Men become
candidates because they represent prin-
ciples, not because they represent a
certain personality. 1t is not necessary
for Admiral Schley to become a candi-
date for public office to secure vindica-
ton. The people win learn all of the
merits of the case through the public
court of inquiry, and from that infor-
nation will form their opinion. The
ballot box is not the proper tribunal 10
determine this case.

A Paris cable says that skilled French
dermatologists have made over" the
face of the Countess Castellane until
now she is really a very handsome wo-
man. II that is true, the Countess
ought to spare a few dollars from her
income and have some new photographs
taken and distribute them among the
American newspaper offices. The New
York and Philadelphia papers are still
using some old pictures made when
the Countess was Anna Gould, hardly
out of short frocks. and when she
would not have taken a blue ribbon at

1t is said that the man who is con-
templating running for the Senate
against Senator James K. Jones of Ar
kansas is intimating that he will at
tack Senator Jones on the ground that
he is a member of trust-the round
bale cotton trust" 1t has never been
denied that Senator Jones is a stock
holder of the corporation controlling
the round bale process, but it has been
denied that the corporation is trust.
Mr.. Bryan himself, in his Commoner,
has come to the defense of Senator
Jones and the corporation. Mr.. Bryan
says the corporation is not a trust in
the common acceptance of the term,
because its monopoly is based upon
a patent Mr.. Morgan ought to take
out a patent on his idea of combining
industrial plants.

1t seems that chauffeur" as the title
of the man who drives the automobile
is to be foisted upon the English lam
guage whether or not" 1t is French
word, and signifies fireman or stoker,
but the French have applied it to auto
mobile drivers, and it is likely to stick.
1t is not an easy or attractive word
for the English tongue, and lacks sug-
gestiveness to English speaking people.
Our language ought to be rich and
elastic enough to furnish a title for
these persons, without having to bor-
row one from the French. But, since
we have failed to find compact, easy,
comprehensive word for the automobile
itself, it is not to be wondered at that
we do not know what to call the driver

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Baltimore Sun (Dem) says:
There appears to be no probability
that a combination composed of capt.
talists or of planters will be formed to
monopoliZe the South's production of
cotton. If every planter could obtain
enough money to pay off his indebt-
edness, to give cash for his farm sup
plies, and to put sufficient balance
in bank to meet his expenses until he
was ready to sell, the South might al
ways obtain a fair price for its staple
product. 1t is not likely, however, that
a syndicate of financiers will be organ
lied to advance the immense sum of
money that would be required to en-
able the Southern planters to hold their
cotton indefinitely. The scheme would
be a risky one, both for the syndicate
and the planters"
The Chicago Chronicle (Dem.) says:
THE proprietors of the New York pool
rooms and policy shops who have been
convicted of violating the anti-gam-
bling and anti-lottery laws are trying
to obtain their discharge from impris-
onment on the ground that their ar
rest and conviction were in violation
of the constitution of the United States.
1t is no wonder. With the government
running" a land lottery more aggrav-
ating than any described in the annals
of vice it was reasonable for them to
suppose that they had not been vio-
lating any valid law of the country"
The Philadelphia Record (Dem.) says:
THE whirligig of time brings some
amusing as well as grave changes. A
professional organ in Cologne insinu-
ates that the liberal opponents of the
new German tariff have been bribed by
American gold.' Not many years
have elapsed since Protectionist organs
in this country made much of a charge
that British gold" was being used in
the interest of free trade legislatio
Whatever may be the case in Germany,
there is no question that political dis
cussion has gained in decency In this
country"

Capt. Thomas F. Schley of the Twen-
ty-third Infantry, a son of Admiral
Schley, was quoted in the newspapers
some days ago as strongly defending
his father and asking some pertinent
questions respecting Admiral Samp-
sons actions during the war with
Spain. The war department took cog
nizance of the matter. and it was said
that Capt. Schley would be called
upon to explain. Meanwhile the young
Captain has declared that the inter
view was unauthorized; that he never
expressed any opinion or made any
comments for publication. AS usual,
the newspaper reporter has to bear the
blame for the publication.

1t is interesting to know how 1t is
that the mosquito imparts fever germs
to the human system. According to
the World, the theory accepted by the
New York authorities is that the or
ganism causing malarial fever (the
plasmodius malarius) finds the con-
ditions necessary for its existence only
in the human body. The mosquito be-
comes infected by sucking the blood of
persons affected by that organism.
Having entered the body of the mos
quito, the germ develops its own
growth, and in ten days time it
reaches the poison gland. Then, when
the mosquito bites another human be-
ing the malarial parasite is introduced
into the circulation of the latter. Dr.
Samuel G. Dixon, president of the
Academy of Natural Sciences, is quoted
as saying: 1T is now an indisputable
fact that the mosquito is almost the
Aonly cause Of the malarial disease be-
klg spread"

A careful test was recentley made
in Boston to determine the comparative
heat radiation of four kinds of street
pavement wood asphalt, granite
block and macadam. The average
temperature of the macadam was
found to be 102 degrees; of asphalt, 113
wood. 124 degrees. This shows that
the general belief as to the excessive
heat of asphalt is erroneous, for wood
is the hottest material in use. Fur
Their tests seemed to show that the
macadam pavement has several adj
vantages over the asphalt particularly.
1t retains water longer after IL has
been sprinkled and it is much easier to
keep the dust laid on it, Theoretically
asphalt might be thought less dusty
than any other kind of pavement, but
practically 1t is worse than macadam
in this respect, owing to the difficulty
of keeping the surface properly wet.
Besides. constant travel has the effect
of grinding the asphalt into a fine pow
der. and thus produces dust all the
time. The ideal paving material has
evidently not yet been found. One is
needed that will not retain and radiate
heat. the surface of which can be kept
clean and wet While the asphalt has
many advantages, 1t is not exactly
what a city wants. Moreover in winter
it is dangerous footing for horses, as
anyone knows who has crossed the
