SILK FROM JAPAN.
Most Of the Finished Product Will Be
Marketed in This Country.

"Japan's silk production this season will
be larger than it has ever been before and
most Of the finished produce will be market
ed in the United States" said Robert S.
Calisher Of Seattle. Wash, to a Star man
at the New Willard.
During the last few years there has
been a large increase in the capitalization
Of the Japanese silk mills. with the result
that Japan has today more money invested
in the silk business than in any other indus
try. The output has been doubled by the
enlargement Of plants and the building of
new ones. Heretofore China constituted ia
pans largest silk market. Only few years
ago the American trade was too small to
bother with, though Germany, France and
England took a small quantity. A change
has come about and the largest market is
now found in America. China excepted.
The silk crop has been very large for the
terials will be utilized by the factories, new
and old. before another crop comes in.
Capital is going into Japan from many
countries and factories are springing up
on every side, and soon they will be able
to supply the world with such goods as
they make. They can never supply them
selves with wheat. which they are already
beginning to prefer to rice. which they have
been eating for thousands of years. I be-
lieve they will soon make the toys Of the
world, for their products in that line are, I
elsewhere. Their agricultural products are
limited. and the factory population will
consume more and more Of our food pro-
ducts"

LOSES ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS
Disastrous Experience of a Lady on
Pennsylvania Avenue.

The wife of a prominent government Off
cial had trying and disastrous experience
on Pennsylvania avenue about noon today
she recently received a money order for
500 and visited the post office to have it
cashed. She called on Major James E.
Bell, the superintendent of delivery, to
identify her to the money order clerk Ma
Jor Bell promptly complied with her re-
quest, and after the order had been cashed
secured a large official envelope in which
to place her money, which was in several
bills. The lady babe Major Bell goodbye
and walked out the door. Within few
minutes she rushed into his Office, on the
first floor Of the post office building, and re-
ported that the money had been blown out
of her hand and out of the envelope and
had been scattered over the avenue
She said she had walked down the steps
in front Of the post office building holding
her dress skirt with one hand and her
hat with the other. She had the envelope
with the 500 in the hand with which she
held the hat and as soon as she stepped on
the sidewalk a heavy gust Of wind tore the
envelope from her hand and whipped the
bills out and up the street. out of view.
Her pocket book was blown out Of her
hand also. and her hat was torn almost
of. This was done SO quickly that she had
no chance to save her property. The mon
ey had completely disappeared by the time
search was made for it. and the lady was
forced to borrow sufficient money to adj
vertise for her lost bills. and to pay her
car fare home.

NAMING OF CHILDREN.
a Change Of Custom is Very Desira-
BILE.

with the beginning Of the next century,
1000 A. D., let US hope to see change Of
| custom by the enlightened people Of that
period as regards the naming Of children"
remarked a well-dressed man in the lobby
| Of an uptown hotel this morning.
Perhaps personal names may be done
away with by that time" suggested an
other gentleman, land some personal des-
| ignation adopted which will be more sat
| isfactory and definite than In use now;
| one BETTING the great advance in civiliza-
| ton and refinement then attained: for IN
stance, let us offer prayer that In G)OO A.
D. parents will not inf1ict upon their Off
spring patronymics such as mine-Archi-
| bald Archibald"
Mine Is William Williams replied the
"And mine," spoke up the third gentle
man, 'is Edward Edwards"
IT worry along with MacAllister MacAl-
lister" remarked a Scotchman, from the
depths Of an easy chair.
'The system of personal designation" re-
sumed Mr.. Archibald. (which permits par
ents to impose any name they please upon
a child a name which must cling to him
| through life, unless he has 1t changed by
| legal process. is open to serious considera-
| ton and criticism. AS another brief ex-
ample there are in the Washington city d.
rectory forty-eight William Johnsons,
eighteen John Smiths, forty-fve William
Smiths, forty William Browns, twenty John
JOneSeS and twenty-five william Greens, to
say nothing Of the innumerable other SINH
lar cases of repettions.
Another senseless feature as regards
names is where an engraved piece Of paste
board Is flashed under our plebeian eyes,
and our intellects are benumbed with awe
as we read something like this, Mrs. Regt-
| maid Ronaldson Observation-Disclosures
| Why not add another repetition and say
Mrs. Revelstroke-Reve -Revelstroke?
| One Is as senseless as the other, and 1t
would certainly sound startling to hear
| leather-lunged lackey call out Mrs. Revel-
| Observation-Disclosures carriage!
| The hyphenated repeated name, alas, Is
| growing in popularity in some quarters. but
| ordinary mortals look upon the affectation
| as absurd and worthy Of the ridicule 1t re-
ceives.
"Repetitions and similarity Of names re-
| suit largely from lack Of originality on the
pride. The same old titles are handed down
| from father to SON ad libitum for genera
| tons In few generations more, If the
pra ctice Is kept up, there will be, for in
stance, John Smith. 42d.' which will be as
much in keeping as John Smith, 3D.. or
Peter JONES' 3d., as we see now so often
| in print and all of the intervening John
Smiths, from list to 42d,' will be simply
shadowy, forgotten myths Of memory.
LAS confusing and Objectionable as is this
practice, however, 1t Is not SO bad as the
habit some parents have of giving to their
| child the same Christian name as his sur
name, as. by a singular coincidence. four
of these unhappy individuals happen to
meet in single hotel at the same time In
Washington"
And to celebrate what was certainly re-
markable coincidence all Of the gentlemen
| of one accord retired to the cafe to debate
| further the situation.

Lady Curzon's Unique Honor.
From London Madame.


A noticeable feature in the durbar honors
list Is the fact that the name OF one woman
only appears. Nevertheless, every one Is
gratif1ed that on the occasion of the durbar
for the proclamation Of King Edward VII
as Emperor Of India his majesty has been
pleased to confer on Lady Curzon, the wife
Of Englands chief representative in India.
the Kaiser-i-Hind Medal for Public Service
in India of the first class This is the second
time Lady CurZon has received an Indian
decoration. In February, 1899, there was
bestowed on her the decoration Of the inn
perial order Of the Crown of India. AS most
people know, Lady CurZon is one Of the
numerous band of American women who
have married English noblemen and who
have gained still wider recognition and pop
ularity by the force Of their own charming
individuality.

PROHIBITION DEFEAT
Ex-aov. Woodbury. DISCUSSES
coNDIT1dNs i'm VERMONT.
Non-Enforcement Of Law Adopted
Fifty Years. Ago the Cause
Of 1tS Repeal.

Ex-Governor U. A. Woodbury. Of Bur-
lington, VT, isAstopping at the New VIII
lard for few days. -en route. with his wife.
to Thomasville. Ga, for a visit at that
place. Speaking to a reporter for The Star
OF the recent defeat of the prohibitory
liquor law in Vermont, Mr.. Woodbury. said:
Il believe the reason for the defeat of the
prohfD1tory law b due to its non-enforce-
ment. especially in the larger cities and
towns OF the state. Partially In the adj
ministering Of the law induced a sufficient
number OF people to vote for its repeal to
give the local option law majority Of the
votes at the late election. Had the present
law been impartially enforced do not be-
lieye 1t would have been repealed.
Inc prohibitory law was defeated by the
lar coincidence In the result Of the vote, in
that the old law was repealed by about the
same majority as that given it when it was
adopted, fifty years ago.
By Popular Vote.
The new law provides that each town
may vote the first Tuesday in March of
every year as to whether or not 1t will
grant licenses for the sale Of liquor. The
penalties for infraction Of the provisions of
the new law are fully as severe as under
the present prohibitory law. The change in
SoAoiIAouS uuueT the uoW law WILL Uo uO-
ttced more largely in the larger towns of
Vermont. I don't believe half the towns of
the state will vote in favor of granting
licenses. The permanence Of the local op-
ton law will depend upon its effect. If it
has a demOralizing effect upon the COM
munity the people will either repeal it or
change it radically.
The Local Provision.
The high license local option measure
provides for the Issuance Of several kinds Of
permits. Each town may issue one license,
and more in proportion to its population; I
believe one license for every 1000 inhabit-
ants in each town is the ratio. The cost Of
license ranges from 81. 200 for a saloon to
$40 for drug stores, where liquor may be
sold on a physicians prescription and
record kept of the sales.
IF the people of the town vote in favor
of granting licenses to sell liquor. then upon
the application of six legal voters the Sc
lectmen Of towns and aldermen Of cities
must call another town meeting, when two
more questions shall be submitted to the
voters. One will be whether licenses shall
be granted for the sale Of liquors Of all
kinds. and the other whether licenses shall
be granted for the sale Of beer or malt
liquors only. License commissioners will
then be appointed by the selectmen and
aldermen and they will issue the permits
and have general supervision Of the traffic"

CHAPTER Il.

Now when the sun began to sink
toward the west, Namarah called to
her maidens, and arrayed herself in
garments richly wrought and beauti-
full, as me that keepeth a great feast.
Her robe was all of white, embroid-
cred with gold, and the encrusted folds
fell heavily about the splendid curves
of her most noble figure. In her loos-
ened hair were twisted chains of gold
that wrapped it in and out, and made
a light and darkness beautiful to see.
About her shoulders, which her robe
left bare, she wrapped a scarf OF
golden tissue, through which her
cleaning neck and arms shone fair as
moonlight seen through sunbeams.
And when the maidens and all the
household of Jephthah wondered to see
her so adorned, she spake, and said
unto them:
Il go to meet my father Jephthah
and his host returning from victory"
And when they asked her:
How knowest thou that he hath
won the day, and is ret%urning?"
She made answer, as the saying was:
"A little bird hath told me-"
And they knew not how true indeed
were the words she spake.
And as the sun sank lower and lower
and it began to draw toward evening,
behold, there fell upon the ears of Ma
marah and her maidens the distant
sound of tramping horses and anon
the notes of a trumpet.
They be notes Of victory; even as
thou hast said," spake one of the maid
ems, while Namarah stood and listened,
breathless and half troubled, like an
image of too perfect joy. And Mama
rah said:
Il will even go forth to meet them"
Whereat her maidens wondered, for
it was her custom to await her father
within the house, a feeling of timidity
ever preventing her from appearing
before the eyes of the soldiers. But
now there showed in all her bearing
a very noble pride, so that she looked
no longer a shy and trembling maiden,
but a woman and the daughter of a
conqueror. There was a most rich
hue OF roses on her cheeks, and her
great eyes blazed and sparkled, so that
Namarah looked that day a being OF
such glorious beauty as none who
on her had ever seen before.
