Miss Peck's Great Climb.
Annie S. Peck, the noted mountain
climber, cabled from La Paz, Bolivia,
Aug. 20, that with her second expedi-
ton she had succeeded in climbing
Mount Illampu, in the Andes, to a
height of 10000 feet. The height of
this peak, which is one Of the three
loftiest in South America, is 21,500
feet. Miss Peck in 1897 reached the
summit Of Orizaba, Mexico, at an ele-
vation of $4,000 feet, which was be-
lieved to be the highest point ever
reached by woman. She has now
beaten her previous record.

| ing Saturday from the New London
| Comm yard, where she was built by
the Eastern Shipbuilding company
This yard was created especially for
the construction Of the Minnesota and
her sister ship Dakota, soon to go into
commission. AS the Minnesota passed
through the Narrows Of New York har-
bor escorted by four tugboats, the
flags ON the United States forts dipped
salute, while the band played '"The
Star Spangled Banner" and harbor
craft blew their whistles in welcome.
Besides her size, she being $50 feet
long, 1914 feet wide and 80 feet from
keel to bridge, the Minnesota is dis
tinctive in other ways. She Is the
only ship afoat that has all her cargo
gear run by electric power, and only
one other merchantmen Is steered by
electricity Her plant supplies heat,
light, ventilation and power While
she is primarily cargo carrier, the
Minnesota has accommodations for 286
cabin passengers and 2,400 steerage
passengers The dining saloon will
seat 200 persons. After an overhaul
ing at Newport News the Minnesota
will take cargo at Philadelphia for the
Pacific by way Of Cape Horn.

TEAS THAT ARE
WORTH FORTUNES
Twelve Hundred Kinds Are In China's
Show at the Worlds Fair---The Most
POpulOus Nation of the World For
the First Time Makes an Exhibit
Worthy of Her Greatness.

Many expositions of stupendous char
acter make up the Worlds Fair of
1904. Each part is vast and distinct
show. Each building shelters many
acres of wonderful things-wonderful
because they are the choicest Of their
kind. Every nation on the globe is
represented. Every state and territory
is here with it's best and making the
most of its greatest opportunity.
The fact that China has not been a
large exhibitor at worlds fairs gives
to her great exhibit here a prominence
quite exceptional 1t is a wonderland
Of ingenious productions. We know
China best by reason of her extensive
exports Of teas, which have found
vast market in the United States for
genera tions. Her commercial interests
therefore prompted her to make a dis
play Of teas that we should not for
get.
In sealed glass Jars China displays in
the Liberal Arts Palace some 1900
kinds of tea. Young Hyson and Old
Hyson have string of tea relations
longer than the genealogical chain of
Plymouth Rock They are neatly Sc
lected Chops" in the language of the
tea farmer, and these classes do not
embrace medicinal teas, which are
quite another lot in the rather modest
number of 400
The teas exhibited vary in price from
few cents pound to some rare and
exclusive kinds that are worth their
weight in gold the tea in the latter
cases being placed on one side of the
scales and pure gold on the other
that is to say, the tea of this expensive
kind is worth about $50 gold an ounce.
Only very small quantity of this ex-
elusive leaf is exhibited, and it is
grown in carefully guarded tea planta-
tions or gardens right under the shad-
ows of the great wall of China. It's cul-
tivation is prohibited for any use save
for the imperial family of China and a
few of the favored high officials.
Mention has been made Of the word
"chop" in connection with tea, and it
may be interesting to the everyday
reader to know what the word actually
signifies. The tea leaf is grown in va
rious districts of the Chinese empire on

The Steel War Goes On.
The independent steel manufacturers
Of the Pittsburg district have contin-

curing large contracts for structural
material at prices below those offered
by the trust On the other hand, the
trust has closed a contract to furnish
the Canadian Pacific railroad with co.
900 tons Of rails at a price far below
the pool rate of $2S. The Iron Age says
that much new business is held up un-
til the situation shall clear up.
