An Ice Cream Treat.

Following the business meeting OF
Dawes Camp Sons Of Veterans Monday
evening, the members thereof. to the
number of nearly forty, enjoyed an ice
cream treat at the hands of their
Brother Harry Babb, who became g
benedict few days ago. 1t is needles;
to say that the whole crowd enjoyed
the treat to the limit.
In this connection it is in place to
say that another member of Dave:
Camp is seriously considering the sub
ject of matrimony, and according to
reports the happy event will transpire
along about the time when Fall oys-
tiers are good and ripe. How about it,
Brother Jim?

JAPAN's FINANCIAL PLlHHI.

l.
The remark has been frequently been
made in discussions ofithe Chinese in
demnity question that Japan should be |
entitled to an extra allowance because |
she would have to pay a. higher rate
OF interest on loan than some of the
other powers, her credit not being SO
good as theirs. This. taken with the
recent abandonment Of. important pub
lie works and the reputation of Wis
count Watanabe's Budget, of which we
have already spoken, would seem to in
dicate that Japan is in bad way finan-
cially. Statements to that effect have
ben made, and Japan has been held up
as "a horrible example of a nation
ruined through extravagaht military
expenditures. AS a matter of fact, ia
pan is suffering from great scarcity
of ready money. Yet it is entirely
wrong to say that she is nearing bank
ruptcy, that she. is impoverished or
that her people are crushed by taxation.
The facts are just the opposite of
these. Despite an enormous increase
in national revenues, taxation in Japan
is actually lower than ever before. The
national revenue is now more than
| 500, ,000,0 900 year, instead of $43 ,000,-
900 900 ten years ago, But it must be
noted that the governments receipts
from it's property and works were only
$4,000 900 then, while they are nearly
| $4,000, 600 now. So the receipts from
the liquor tax have risen from $780,
0000 to $27 100000. In these two items,
then, we have a gain of $40,000,000 in
revenue without the slightest increase
in direct taxation. If the whole Bud
get be similarly analyzed it appears
that taxation has risen not from $43,-
100000 to $100,0OO,OOO, but from $685.
500, 900 to Sal, ,500,000 an increase of
less than 60 instead of more than 100
per cent But we may go further than
this, and observe that if we take into
account the altered ratio between gold
| and silver, and remember that the yen
is now reckoned on a gold basis, tax
alton is actually less in gross amount
than it was ten years ago.
Nor is this calculation theoretical.
| 1t is practically demonstrated by the
| condition of the empire and its people.
! There is an air of prosperity every
where. Wages are rising-they have
doubled in ten years. Business is good.
All industrial enterprises are making
money. And yet there is no stringency
in the money market. Government
bonds bearing per cent. interest are
sold at SO, and it is believed that fresh
loan could not be placed at above 85
or Sc. The reason of this state of af-
fairs seems to be that the rapid expan-
sion of Japanese industries in recent
years has absorbed and fastened up all
available working capital, and for one
reason or another additional capital has
not been sought or received from
| abroad. Japan, in other words, is try
ing to carry on too much business on
too little capital. In time the situa-
tion may be relieved through natural
processes, and Japan seems INCLINED to
seek such a solution of her difficulties
rather than incur in any way a heavy
foreign debt. In the meantime she
presents the strange spectacle of rich
and prosperous nation in financial
straits.

LAUGHTER AND DEATH.

Several items in the news of late
have emphasized the Importance of
protecting the bedridden from the hu-
NOR of misguided friends. Only the
other day young man was ignored in
the will of his uncle because he related
to that person, who had outlived the
perils of 100 years, story so funny as
to cause the old man to swallow his
false teeth.
Similar is the case of Mrs. Mary
Zenn. She was only % years old, was
fair to see, had a good husband and
naturally looked forward to many years
of peace and plenty. Some trifling
illness attacked her and several friends
who heard she was respondent went
tempt to revive theinvalids' waning in
terst in life, told her the funniest story
she ever had heard. The young woman
laughed immoderately. She was too
weaok to do justice to theanecdote, evil
IDENTIFY, for after she laughed for an
hour or two she began to hiccough,
For ten dreadful days two doctors
sought to restore her gravity. 1t was
useless. Exhausted by the exertion
she departed this life. The grief-strick-
en- raconteur fled from her friends bed
side after raising a gust of laughter
which, she saw too late, she could not
abate.
Those persons who invade the inval
ids chamber in these torrid July days
should not give free rein to their sense
or humor. 1t may be that to die "a
laughing is the pleasantest exit from
this sphere of trouble, but the average
invalid often prefers to live and groan
little longer.

Pittsburg, July 8. THAT which be-

conference in the history of capital and
labor will open in Pittsburg next
Thursday morning, when the highest
officials os the Amalgamated Associa-
ton will meet with high officers of the
iron and steel industries to settle
grave questions.
Every Vice President of the Anal
gamated Association, from Alabama

called to confer at this time instead of
regular conferees who have met usu-
ally with us to adjust differences.
LAS yet am in ignorance as to who
will constitute the committee repre-
senting the steel people, the employ
ers. / have been informed that Presi
dent Charles NJ. Schwab, of the United
States Steel Corporation, will be pres
ent in person. The laboring man is at
present confronted with some peculiar
conditions which hope will be adjust
ed at the coming conference.
81 believe the strike will be speedily
settled"
The above was the statement made
by President Shafer, Of the Amalga-
mated Association, late this evening as
he emerged from the Carnegie building
with party of Amalgamated Associa-
ton officers and officers of the Ameri-
can Sheet Steel Company. 1t was evil
dently decided at the conference today
that the best interests of both sides
demand that the wage conference De
held at as early date as possible N
spite of the trouble at Wellsville, o.
Under the present arrangement the
Wellsville men all remain at work
pending settlement or disagreement

In the work of Americanizing Eng
land few magnates from the United
States have obtained control of some of
London's street railways. This is a
good place to begin. The railroads are
going to be newly equipped, and in
this work American engineers will have
to be employed. The British engineers
seem to be many years behind their
brethren on this side of the water. This
English concern don't know the value
of a scrap heap" says Yerkes, the Chi
cago man, who has taken hold of Lon
don's underground railway. This is a
good time for the British, French and
German papers to repeat their cry
about Europe's financial subjugation
by the United States.

The Porto Ricans are. experiencing
American prosperity. Business of all
kinds in the island is better now than
in many years. OF course, it will be
still better as soon as the islanders be-
come thoroughly Americanized and
adopt American methods. The advan-
ces, too, which will come soon in the
islands political status will help all
sorts of trade among it's people. A full
territorial government for the PortoL
Ricans is sure to be granted within the
next few years. Then state government
will not be far in the distance. This
is the kind of imperialism" which is
in store for the newAmericans of the

LIVES LOST
Reported Casualties From the Storm
In Mississippi

New Orleans. August 16.-The storm
has passed and seems to have done no
great damage anywhere except along
the river below the city, sixty-six ia
talities occurring near the rivers mouth.
In the city the injury was to the lake
side resorts AID to the section flooded
by the break in a canal bank which was
closed before morning. Rice and
orange farms or the lower coasts were
severely injured. The inhabitants there
believe that they were struck by a tidal
wave combined with a. cyclone. The
lives We're lost half a mile above the
quarantine station. A large house was
overturned with fifteen people in it, and
Mrs. Rosa Walker, her 1O-year-old
daughter Ida Walker. Miss Birdie Cob
den and Miss Ella Golden were
| drowned.
Both he Mississippi river and Lake
Ponchatrain are falling rapidly and the
storm has practically subsidized. The
water has rapidly receded from the
section of the city overlooked yester-
day. Large bodies of men are repair
ing the damage done at the various
lake resorts which bore the brunt of the
storm.
Little news has come thus far from
lne MISSISSIPPI SOund; but there has
been on loss of life in that reach of
territory.
The Louisville and Nashville railroad
is still badly crippled. No trains have
come in or gone out over the line since
night before last. The subsistence of
water, however. makes it probable that
the damage to the tracks will be quick
ly repaired and that traffic will be re-
Sumed by night.
A large number Of cotton and other
business men are still bottled up on the
coast and una ole to get to their offices.
The Northwestern road has had some
u but the Illinois Central has
aided both the Louisville and Nashville
and Northwestern in handling their
passenger traffic.
The Cromwell liner Comus reached
the city today. She had no trouble in
the storm and spied 10 vessels in dis
tress. DR. 7. n. Thomas of the quar-
antine station boarded the Comus near
| the mouth of the river and told Cap
tain Franklin hat an unknown schoon-
er and a smai! boat had been wrecked
in that vicinity and six lives lost. Nc
serious damage was done at the quar-
antine station.
