Business Chances Abroad.

From Leslie's Weekly.
 Consul-General Barlow states that over 1000 United States com. panies, firms and individuals have made investments in Mexico, az. gregating $500, ,O00, 1000 gold, one half of it within the past five years. In Canada, says Consul General Bittinger, of Montreal, millions of dollars of United States capital have been invested in min ing and manufacturing industries. The Westinghouse company has erected large plants in Canada. in England, and in France. In Rus sia, according to Consul Smith, of Moscow, the manufacture of air brakes has been begun by New York firm. The Singer company has branch works for the manufac. ture of sewing machines in Ger many and Russia. An American firm manufacturing show machin- cry employees 100 hands at Frank fort-on-the-Main, of whom seven or eight are expert operatives from the United States. Another Amer ican house, manufacturing tanners machinery, has storehouses and repair shops at Frankfort, at Vi enna, Austlla, and Leicester.

Yellow Pine for Street Paving.


 From the Export Record.
 The question of street paving is becoming a vital one and it is one in which the yellow pine manufac- turer is, or ought to be, interested. The American Lumberman, dis cussing the matter, says:
 The best bit of pavement in Chicago is in front of the A ldi- torium hotel on Michigan avenue. It is made of all heart longleaf pine filled with creosote to the extent of ten pounds to the cubic foot, laid with the ends of the grain up on heavy concrete foun- dation made of first-class material, including Portland cement"
 In view of the very deplorable condition of the streets, not of one alone, but all the gulf cities dur ing the recent Mardi Gras festiVi- ties, the following from Capt. c. A. Danner, the veteran ex-lumber- man, who is also an authority upon such matters pertaining to munich pal improvement, will be of inter- est: Here where we have abun- dant wood of various kinds it would seem advisable to use wood for street paving. In doing this we would secure the best pave ment for horses and vehicles as well as the cheapest. Moreover, we would keep our money at home, as material as well as labor could all be had at our doors."
 The matter should receive the attention of the municipal authori- ties and the millmen.

NICKEL GlVERS.
Their Moral Responsibility Is Com
 pared to That of Oxen.

From the New York Sun.
 Men who put nickels in collec- ton plates again engaged the at tention of the Rev. Dr. Parkhurst in his sermon last night, at the Madison Square Presbyterian church. Said Dr. Parkhurst:
 "A man listens, and with attcn- tion, to an eloquent exposition of the duty and splendid opportunity of carrying the blessed uospc' to the ends of the earth and subdH!ng the whole world to the gracious reign of Jesus Christ. The plate is passed and he lays upon it dirty nickel. Now, that nickel . marks the distance there Is in the point of moral sensibility between that man and an OK viewing a sun set and seeing nothing; he has got five cents worth of evangelical re- sponsiveness. am not saying that he is a bad man. that is not the point. We do not blame the OK for having it's eyes lit with the beauteous tints of the twilight and the night sheen of all the stars without being itself thrilled with them.
