 An art reception is an unusual event in Talladega, and many friends gathered in Miss Celeste Miller's studio Thursday morning from to 12 to admire the large collection of decorated china which she has recently painted under the instruc- tion of the gifted Mrs. Raulston of Birm- ingham.

A very large jardinIere done in white, yellow and American Beauty roses was decidedly the handsomest in the collection. A tall vase decorated in jonquils was noticeably handsome, and a striking porcelain done done In Cherokee roses was equally at tractive. A beautiful bon bon dish in violets. and a set of plates designed in the Raulston border, were greatly ad- mired. A number of rose plates were mo- ticeabIe for the artistic and delicate eff fects in the shadowy backgrounds Whole sets of plates. cups and saucers toilet articles and ornamental pieces were also displayed with much taste.

STEAMSHIP STOKERS MUTINY

NORFOLK, Va, Sept. 16.-The Old Do

passenger list of 100, steamed slowly into
this harbor tonight with her cargo badly
listed. ten hours behind time.
When the gale struck the steamer at /
O'Clock this morning the passengers were
panic-stricken. They rushed half-clothed.
weeping, praying and screaming from
their staterooms in an effort to reach the
decks and to obtain seats in the boats.
Every door and window was closely fas-
tened. the matches battened and orders
issued that no one save the crew be al
lowed upon the decks already waist deep
In a seethfng mass of water.
According to the report of the passen-
gers the force of stokers refused to work.
Captain Tapley drew revolver and,
pointing it at the men, ordered them back
to work They obeyed. At the time of
the mutiny the ship was in only sixteen
fathoms of water and drifting nearer
shore. The report of the mutiny cannot
be confirmed from the ships officers. Six

STATISTICS SHOW
TARIFF BENEFITS
The British Government
Uses Figures in Urg-
ing a Change.

LONDON, Sept. 16.-On the heels of Bal
four's academic expression of his personal
views of the fiscal problem, contained in
the pamphlet on "Insular Free Trade, >
advance sheets of which were issued last
night, came the long promised and much
demanded Government statistics dealing
with that subject. They were issued to-
day by the Board of Trade in the shape
of blHe book of nearly 500 pages of be-
wildering tables of figures showing the
various aspects of British and foreign
trade and the industrial conditions. No
deductions were drawn, though the pub
lication teens with interesting notes upon
what are regarded as points of fact. The
references to foreign trade were chiefly
confined to France, Germany and the
United States.
One Of the most important phases dealt
with in thel blue book are imports and ex-
ports. The tables show that exports from
the United Kingdom to the United States
declined from S145, 600 in 1890 to s97, 500, :
600 in 1902, while the imports rose from
$685. OO0, 900 to $685. 600 900. The total exports
to all foreign countries declined in the
same period $4,000. .O00 though when the
colonies are included the decline amounts
to only $5,000,OO0.
The proportion of the United Kingdom
exports, as between protected and unpro--
tected countries, in the markets of the
world has been reversed since 1850. Then
it was SO per cent to the protected coun-
tries and A per cent to the others In 1902
the proportion was 42 per cent to the pro
tected countries and 5S per cent to the
others.
A valuable bit of information is given
on the quoted excess of imports over ex-
ports, which has so often been held a
sign of British trade decline. The blue
book says that while the excess yearly
averages about $780, OO0. 900, the income re-
ceivable from foreign investments, caIcu-
lated at $312, 500, 900, added to the earnings
of the British merchant fleet engaged in
foreign trade, calculated at s450. 100000, 'is
probably more than sufficient to account
for the average excess of imports"

tleman passed through San Francisco
twenty years ago with Arthur Balfour,
the present Premier of Great Britain,
and is therefore not unacquainted with the
country. and during an interview last
evening he said he was greatly surprised
with the remarkable growth of the west
ern section Of the United States.
Mr.. Lyttelton declined to discuss British
politics in any way. remarking that he
is travelling now as a private citizen and
is not deeply interested in the political sit
nation in his own country. Referring TO
the late William E. Gladstone. he said
that the memoirs, on which John Morley
is at present at work. will soon be ready
for issuance, and he added:
Mr.. Morley's task has been a hard
one. a fact which can be readily appre-
ciated when one considers that he had to
review sixty years of the active political
life of the dead Premier and read over
sixty thousand letters

which he held for so many years. served
