SUFFERED ON BOARD SHIP.
Injured Sailor Says Captain Would
Not Put Him Ashore.

San Francisco, Cal, Nov. IA pitiful e1-

revealed. The comp.a nant filed a COM

for SIS 600 damages. asking that he be reim-
bursed In that sum for damages received
on the ocean while sailor on the Amer
ican bark Atlas.
Schultz alleges that on March 2S he signed
articles to go on a voyage on the Atlas
from New York to HongKone. When 400
miles out from New York he fell from the
rigging, sustaining a fracture of the right
leg and left arm. HIS shoulder was also
dislocated No medical attendance. save
that bestowed upon him by the captain,
was given him. The injured leg is two
inches shorter than it was before the ac-
cident. The arm was wrapped SO tightly
that the circulation stopped. and paralysis
followed Aside from the attempt to get
the bones, the captain did nothing. he says.
but give his injured seaman q bottle Of
liniment.
At any time during the voyage land could
have been made and skilled medical aid
secured. Schultz declares. 1t would have
been but a matter OF day or two to put
back into the home port. The West Indies
could have been touched without delay, and
at a later time. the Cape of Good Hope was
passed within a few miles. Several steam

reason to believe there were skilled nedi-
cal practitioners, as provided by the laws of
all civilized nations. were spoken.
When the port Of Hong-Kong was
reached. nothing could be done that was of
any service to the sufferer.

LESSON OF OMAHA EXPOSITION.

Admiration of Crowds
Were Badly Spoiled.
REpUBLIC SPECIAL.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Washington, Nov. 1.-The character of
the Indian exhibit at the ST. Louis Worlds
Fair seems likely to cause a considerable
disturbance in the Department Of the In
terror. as opinions among the departmental
officers differ widely on the subject. The
Exposition managers wish to have this
show, like those at Omaha and elsewhere,
spectacular and picturesque. and. in their
arguments, emphasize the fact that it will
probably be the last distinctive Indian show
ever given under official auspices.
Commissioner Jones. however, opposes
this plan on moral grounds.
II realize" said he to-day. that the peo-
pie at large are only vaguely interested in
the education of the Indian for civilization; !;
they are CURIOUS about his life and habits
races, fire dances. Indian games and that
sort of thing, and will not care to look at
deeked out with paint and feathers. They
overlook the fact that the Indian of their
fancy does not exist any more.
1T has been the experience Of the de-
partment that these exhibitions work a
great deal OF harm to the Indians. Take
gang of bucks, who have been forced to
work and dress like white men, and place
them on dress parade for six months and
they are utterly worthless for months to
come.
NO living creature loves admiration more
than the Indian. and 1t ruins him to pose
before crowds who give him money and
buy his photographs and make lion of
him. This was our experience with the In
dians who were at Omaha and at Buffalo.
They become vain of the very things We
have been trying TO get them to abandon
The clause of the Indian appropriation
bill. under which the exhibit was author
lied at a cost of $4,000 was 80 worded as
to leave a wide discretion in its prepara-
ton. 1t requires that the exhibit shall Illus
trate the past and present of the Indian
and show his progress In educational and
industrial lines.
This reference to the Indians past IS
taken by the champions of a spectacular
show to warrant the assembling of a lot of
blanket Indians for races. dances and other
ceremonies that Were formerly common
part of Indian life
There will be no difficulty in arranging
an educational exhibit. Young Indians are
particularly clever in woodworking, and
some of the furniture made in the Industrial
schools will compare favorabiy with the
product of noted factories. There are also
good iron workers. and several schools have
made all their own hoes, spades, horseshoes
and other farm implements. The girls take
naturally to the basketry. bead work and
lace.
One plan under consideration is to have
a group of the younger Indians employed IN
making furniture, horseShoes, etc.. While
their elders near by are making baskets,
weaving blankets and fashioning pottery In
forms inherited for generations.

PRICES OF ANTHRACITE.
According to the plans now outlined. the
Circular price or wholesale rate for an
thracite will be the same after as before
the strike.
The added price that retail dealers and
middlemen may exact will not accrue to
the proprietaries of the companies proper
except SO far as insiders in the manage
ment may have undsclosed interest in the
retail distribution of coal.
Sundry acute observers of trade condf-
tions affect to believe that some part of the
losses of the companies has stuck to the
fingers of individuals connected with
them, who are foresighted enough to con-
troll considerable stocks when the strike
was declared
That the bituminous mining and carry
ing companies have swollen their profits
during the strike is put beyond question by
the returns of earnings now coming in.
Their profits We're not so large. of course.
their production been covered by contracts
at a price previously fixed.
But that the benefit they gained will be
lasting Is not SO sure, or. at all events ii Is
not sure that this advantage will be ret ain
ed at the anthracite producers expense
The shipments of that fuel were AZ 865-
a3 tons in 1893: in 1900. with six weeks of
strike. 45, lN.4S tons. The next year the
loss was more than made up by shipments
of So SS6.21 tons.
Anthracite being at once luxury and con-
venience. and in either aspect especially
adapted to city consumption. the use OF
the fuel seems unlikely TO suffer much per

there was one man who could accom-
| plish the seemingly impossible feat of
eating quail each day for month.
Then he explained the carniyorous
habits of the Zulu. At once they went
together to the museum where the
assagai throwers were exhibiting. The
most muscular member of the band lit
orally leaped for JOY when promised a
fine bird each day. His appetite con-
tinued undated and the excitement
ran high, hundreds of dollars being
staked on the issue.
But Mr.. Waterloo was firm in the be-
lief that his theory was correct, and
that his dusky champion would hold
out to the end. His interest was that
of a student of human nature. One
day, however, trouble threatened.
The waiter serving the savage came to
the novelist and said that the wild ma
was in revolt. Hurrying to the Zulu
he found that the difficulty was of
different character from that he had
expected. Instead of refusing the
quail, the black man was insisting that
he be served with another. being espe-
cially hungry that day. He. was ap-
peased with the promise that, when
he had finished his thirtieth quail, he
would be served with a fat young
turkey, which was brought to the table
and displayed to his covetous eyes.
Not even the form of cooking the
quail was changed. and when the thir-
tieth bird was finished the turkey was
brought in and reduced to a skeleton
by the giant Zulu, who could not I'M
derstand the establishment of the
spectators. Thousands of dollars were
forfeited on wagers, but the largest
winner did not enjoy the Zulu's gas
tronomic triumph so much as did Mr..
Waterloo, who holds that all the world
loves to pick winner.
This incident of the quail eating has
been woven into one of his cleverest
short stories.
