LEARNING A LANGUAGE.
D Is Comr~ -ativcIy Easy to Acquire
 Working Vocabulary.


 Ut doesn't require any great length of time to learn language if one has patience" said man who has mas- tered several languages, and when hear man regret that he is not able to speak French or German or Spanish or some other language unknown to him cannot conceal my amusement In nine cases out of ten l might say that the men who express regret of this sort handle English very poorly if that happens to be their language.
 "The chances are that their vocabu. laries are extremely limited, and 1t would probably surprise them to know that despite the advantages of birth and education they could not command more than GOO or TOO words in English if their lives depended upon it. Yet they are able to carry on intelligent con- versation. and many of them may be- come forcible and even automatic in their savings, and they plunge into dis cussions of literature, art, music and other subjects of such fine elegance and do 1t rather successfully too.
 "Now, how long ought 1t to take for q man to learn 600 or TOO or even 1000 words in any language? Certainly 1t ought not to take any great length Of time. and from my own experience l know that it does not. Of course am not speaking now of mastering 50 that one can get the full benefit of all the refinements of speech in particular tongue.
 "But I have in mind the idea of speaking intelligibly in given Ian. guage and being able to understand perfectly what is said in return. have a system which I have worked out, and 1t has been of vast benefit to me and has enabled me to learn number of languages. It occurred to me while l was in Mexico n few years ago on i'm. portant business.
 q could not speak word of Spanish and could not understand the language. I concluded that would learn the Ian guage. My plan was simply this: made up my mind that would not re- tire at the close of any day as long as l was there without learning at least three words in Spanish, how to pro nounce them and what they meant That would give me ninety words per month, or something over 1000 in 9 years time."-New Orleans Times.

WHAT WE BUY ABROAD.

The September report of the treasury
bureau of statistics shows that the i'm
portations of manufacturers materials
in the nine months ending with Septem-.
ber 1902, were not only larger than in
the corresponding period of any preced-
ing year, but formed a larger percent
age of the total imports than on any
preceding occasion. The total importa-
ton of manufacturers materials in the
nine months ending with September
1902, amounted to 1925, 211, and form
ed 1888 per cent of the total imports.
A comparison of these figures with
those for the corresponding period of
1890 shows an increase of so per cent in
the importations of manufacturers ma
terials during that time, the total
Expectations of manufacturers ma
terials in the nine months of 1890 having
been $685. 724 $50. The share which
manufacturers materials formed of the
total imports in 1890 was only 1903 per
cent, as against 1853 per cent in the
corresponding months of 1902
A comparison of figures showing the
importations of manufacturers ma
terials with the figures of total imports
covering the same period shows that
the importation of manufacturers, ma

rapidity than that of other imports. The

Find Many circumstances to
Aid in Raiding the Market.

New York. Nov 14.-There was an
other bad break in the stock market
this afternoon after the early weakness
had apparently subsidized, and a sluggish
and wavering movement OF prices had
subsioed
The slump was attributed to raiding
tactics by a powerful speculative COM
binatiOn. The usual rumors OF financial
troubles and heavy losses by large spec
ulators accompanied the decline. The
wiping out of margins and uncovering of
stop loss orders dislodged heavy masses
OF stocks. indicating as a matter of
course heavy speculative losses The
the prospects of weak bank return to-
morrow, fears of gold exports next
week, further large demands from the
interior for money. and a consequent
squeeze in the money market.
The action of the Pennsylvania rail-
road in increasing wages also was
pointed to as an indication of the ris-
ing course in operating expenses. That
stock and its affiliated stocks led the

The United States not only leads the
world in coal production but has ad-
vanced from third place to the head of
the list since 1880 In that year the
United States produced one-fffth of the
coal of the world; last year its produc-
ton was one-third of the total of the
world. The coal production of the
United States has quadrupled since 1880.
while that of the remainder Of the world
has not quite doubled. The three great
coal producing countries of the world
are the United States, United Kingdom
and Germany. These three countries
produce practically so per cent of the
worlds coal Since 1880 the United
States has increased her output by 2Z1,-
100000 tons, Germany by 1O3, 900 900 tons,
and the United Kingdom by so, 900, 900.

that reason 1 have come down here to
make some sort of arrangement so that
work at the mine can proceed. This is
the only good coal in that part of the
state and as there is a shortage this
year we need it badly. 1t brought $3.50

from all that part of the country to haul
it away. / know of people who came

mine we are willing to take hold of it

want the company reorganized so that
we can manage the business. If I have
anything to do with it I want to know
that when I contract to pay the miners
the money will be forthcoming. 1 have
