Several days ago reporter went up
to Riverdale to ask Mark Twain for
an interview on three inventions which
have been patented in his name, says
the New York Times. The caller found
him hard at work in the beautiful
house that he has rented for work
shop. The reporter explained his mis-
sion. Mr. Clemens said that he was
sorry to disappoint the newspaper man,
but that, for obvious reasons, he could
not grant his request.
81 am at work now on my autobiog-
raphy," he said, land as l am going to
touch on that very point, you can
hardly expect me to give away my ma
terial in advance"
The reporter agreed with him, and
then he said:
Mr.. Clemens, this may not be in ac-
cordance with newspaper ethics and I
know how bored you must be with such
requests, but [ want to ask you for
your autograph I have just spent $1.10
for a complete set of your works, and
perhaps that will serve as an apology
for my request"
you need not apologize" said Mr..
Clemens, for / consider it a compli-
ment."
Mr.. Clemens wrote an appropriate au-
tograph and then, turning in his chair
and pointing to a pile of books, he
said:
Now. that is a different matter"
The books were old editions of his
works bound in the oldtine black COW
ers that are now identified with gov
ernment reports.
THAT package came to me by ex-
press from the Pacific slope" he said,
from a cheeky individual of whom I
never heard before. They were Just
dumped in here, and with them came
letter asking me to write my name
in each book and return them by eX-
press. OF course, l will not write my
name in them, but ] suppose l will
have to return them and pay the ex-
pressage back. That sort of thing
rather takes the tuck out of a request
for Your AUTOGRAPH. doesn't it?'

The helple ssness that a man feels
rible parts of his experience. Perhaps
this is at it's worst when it is not ne
but the guide who is at fault The late
g. w Stevens, the war correspondent
relates a terrible experience of his own
in the Egyptian desert
We had been journeying all day
hoping to reach the mona stery at
night. l began to feel sleepy and 10
droop in the back. l swung my lee
over the ponlmel and settled myself to
ride astraddle. Then / decided to sit
side-saddle on the off-side COR an hour,
then chance and ease the strain again
So rode, looking steadily at the great
yellow blotch ahead OF me.
But now the sun was dipping down
again under our hat-brims. 1t WAS past
I. 1t would be dark at $50; if we had
not sighted our monastery then, we
were helpless.
THE eagerness with which the guide
raced up each new eThinence, the
strained hopefulness of his stare, the
slow disappointment you could read in
the relaxed limbs, the fresh hope re-
newed, but each time fainter, with
which he dashed for the next prospect
he was at fault. To my eye one ridge
one dip, one hill was exactly like every
other. We had been riding ten hours
and must have come fifty miles; our
monastery was only forty-jive. We had
missed it, and it was all but dark.
"A night in the cutting wind Of the
desert, a night without tent, water
fire or fodder was the very best we
had to look forward to. The worst
but just then up painted Said.
Have you seen Said?''
sIyffan1t,,a 7 I
the hill back yonder Come and see
for yourselves
And he led us back 10 the brow OF
the bluff, and there, surely, yes, there
cleaned something white. The mon
astery. Hurrah! 1t can't be four miles
off. We will walk; the camels can
follow. So up we got the patient cam
els AND off we STROBE, five miles an
hour, over sand as hard and crisp as
the early morning snow.
1.-THE blazing crimson and grange OF
the sunset blinded out eyes to the
white blod of the monastery. But faster
and faster we walked. Now crimson
and orange blazed no more; it was
really dark now; we had come five
miles and had not arrived.
Are you sure you saw, Said? Quite
sure?"
Effendim.' replied Said, 4 thought
| saw something white
Nothing in sight white now. The
guide was thrown nut utterly; and
there we were fifty-five miles from
home, camels done up, and foodless;
camel boys starving thirsty and water
less ourselves with possibly two days
food and certainly not two Gays water;
lost, clean lost in tie Liblyan desert"
At early dawn they were UP and
searching. Mr. Stevens continues:
"Then the sun comes up, and the
desert is yellow again; and now what
sound is that? Yes, a yell from said.
Surely he has seen. ON to the car1els
and briskly westward.
" No, but behold-a camel track; and

A CHANCE FoR THE FILrPISos.

1t seems to be the understanding in
Washington that the action of the
House did not settle the Philippine
tariff question. Some of the ablest of
the Republican leaders of the Senate
are not satisfied with the Philippine
tariff bill passed by the House.
The way the situation presents itself
is this: 1t is almost certain that some
sort of a reciprocity arrangement will
be made with Cuba, by which her
sugar and tobacco will be admitted to
our market at lower tariffs than those
in the Dingley law. But it would be
conspicuously unjust to the Filipinos
to show greater consideration for the
welfare of the Cubans who are prac-
tically independent than for the Fill
pnos who are dependent upon us. If
the tariff upon Cuban sugar and to-
bacco is lowered the tariff ought also
to be lowered upon Philippine sugar
and tobacco. That is the way good
many Republican leaders are arguing.
The chances are therefore that the
Philippine tariff bill will be held up in
the Senate until it is determined what
is going to be done in respect to Gu
ban products, or else there will be rad
ical changes made in the Philippine
bill, with the understanding that in
any reciprocity arrangement with
Cuba the products of the latter, so
far as our market is concerned, shall
be put upon the same footing as those
of the Philippines.
II Congress should be more liberal
with the Cubans than with the Fill
pinos there would crop out an ugly
spirit in the Philippines. The insur-
rection might break out again-in fact,
it is not entirely suppressed yet. The
Filipin0s would see THAT it would be
to their advantage from commercial
standpoint to be independent, An OBJ
ject lesson would be presented to them
which they could not fail to under
stand To make concessions to Cuba
which we denied to the Philippines
might cost us a great deal more than
the amount of revenue we should lose
by admitting Philippine products into
.our market on as liberal terms as those
granted Cuba.
Thus far our newly acquired pos
sessions have been more bother than
profit besides being costly in lives
and money. Will they ever be anything
else than a bother and a burden?

A VALUABLE BOOK.

The Georgia State Department of
Agriculture, under direction of Com
missioner Stevens, has issued a volume
which promises to be Of great benefit
to the state. It's title is, Georgia;
Historical and Industrial The his
torical feature, however, takes up
only a small part of the volume, and
is intended merely to present to the
seeker after facts about the state
comprehensive outline of it's political
and social history. The bulk of the
book deals with the industries and re-
sources of the state, and does it in
manner never before approached in a
similar publication.
The need for a thorough, reliable, Of
fetal book setting forth the natural
wealth and advantages of Georgia has
for some time been recognized. Home
seekers and prospective investors are
continually making inquiries respect
ing the inducements we have to Of
fer. This book, Georgia; Historical
and Industrial" covers the whole
field. There could hardly be a legiti-
mate query to which it would not fur
nish an answer. Among the leading
subjects treated at length are the ge-
ology of the state; the soils of the
several sections; the facilities for
transportation, by public road, railroad
and water; agriculture; truck farm
ing and horticulture; dairying and
creameries; stock raising, including
neat cattle, sheep, hogs, poultry,
goats, horses and mules; Horticulture,
seed farms, irrigation and terracing;
fish and game; manufactures; educa-
ton: benevolent institutions; religious
denominations state government, etc.
There are more than 100 excellent IL
Illustrations, giving views of farms, or
chards, water falls, marble quarries,
mines of various sorts, cattle,> poultry,
fruits, vegetables, etc. The pictures of
pea ches and other fruits are in col
ors, and are very attractive.
An important chapter of the book Is
that dealing with water powers. 1t
takes fifty-one pages to tell OF the
available water powers of the state,
SO numerous are they. And any
amount, practically, of desired energy
may be found at one site or another
in the state. from one horsepower to
30. 900. These water-powers are de-
stined to play very important part
in the development Of the state. 1t
is no longer necessary to carry the
mill to the water fall or the shoal.
Electrical energy can be transmitted
by wire over long distances. so that
the source of power may be ten or
twenty miles away from the town in
witch the power is utilized in running
factories, railways, lighting plants ana
the like. Water gives the cheapest
power in the world, and with tens of
thousands of horse power units read
fly available in Georgia, within short
distances of transportation lines, 1t
will not be long before the number of
hunming mill wheels in the state will
be largely increased.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The New York Evening Post Qnd.
says: 1.-THE new German tariff, if en-
acted. will deal heavy blow to the
agricultural exports of the United
States. Crushingly high duties will be
laid on wheat and beef and pork
products. The present duty on wheat
is 3k marks the metric cwt. of 200
pounds; the proposed duty is 6Is marks
On bacon the increase is from 10 to 35
marks, on pork from II to 80 marks,
and on other meats from IL TO 30
Now. in 1900 we sold to Germany So
495, 900 worth of wheat and So ZOO, 900 of
wheat flour; over Sc, 900 900 Of bacon and
ham, and as much more OF pork and
other meats. Our cotton exports 10

necessary feature of the chanRa 10 tho
retlred list. AT present there is no pro-
VISION Tor retirements. The conse-
quence is that there are a. number Of
aged officers on the active list and
chances for the promotion of Young
men are few. There are at present No
less than ten officers of the service
VINO are seventy-tive years old, and sew
eral others are incapacitated: but thew
mold their commissions for life and can
not be removed except by court mar
tai sentence. The new bill fixes the
retiring age at sixty-four as in the
army, and provides for a board To re-
tire incapacitated officers under that
age.
One of the chief arguments hereto
fore brought to bear against retira-
ments in the Revenue Cutter Service
is that that establishment, belonging
10 the Treasury Department. is in the
civil service and not the military To
grant the retirements, it was said
would be to open the way for civil SER
wee retirements and pensions all along
the line. But, while the cutter service

served to give it precedence.

is that the cutter service be taken over
