NO MOCHA COFFEE
NOT BROUGHT THIS COUNTRY

Few Americans Have Ever Tasted It.
-Favorite Beverage Of Arab Sheiks
We Get Fine Coffee, but Not
Mocha.
81 don't believe there is a pound OF
genuine Mocha coffee on this conti-
nent," C. T. Hilliglas, a coffee mer-
chant, informs a representative OF the
ST. Louis Globe-Democrat, or that 2Ou
people in this country have ever tasted
it, unless they have at some time Vls-
lied Arabia and drunk 1t at the table
OF some sheik or governor.
THE true Mocha is the finest coffee
grown. 1t has delicious flavor. that
make it as superior to the very best
of otner brands as silk is superior to
cotton, but the crop is extremely lin
tied. ard hardly ever more than
satisfies purely local demands.
Some Arabian coffee may hnd
Its way to this country; it
may even be called Mocha. but 1t
is not the real article. | am sure,
and none of us have ever had it here.
though we do get the best of other
brands that are grown in Ceylon and
Java, and that means some mighty
fine coffee. 1t is not Mocha. however.
each year wouldn't supply the coffee
demands of one ward in St. Louis
alone for a period of six months. The
best and plumpest berries OF the Mo
cha growth. those with the most ex-
quisite flavor are eagerly taken by the
governors and sheiks in the vicinity.
and they have to get their orders in ad-
vance, so that they may be sure of
their annual supply. The second-grade
berries go to the wealthier citizens,
not of the governing class. and the
third. or poorest grade of berries,
which are not much superior to the
best Java coffee. are sold to the people
and the demand invariably exceeds the
supply ten-fold.
Sometimes a few pounds OF this
cheapest grade OF Mocha finds Its way
to Constantinople. but it is very, very
seldom and | don't believe an ounce
of it has ever got any further west
than that. l presume that If. by some
hook or crook. pound of the real,
plump-berried Mocha were landed In
this country, it would sell for price
that even a Rockefeller might hesi-
tate to pay. We get the best coffee
grown, apart from the Mocha but the
local conditions which prevail where
that coffee is raised prevent us from
obtaining any, and l hardly think the
real thing will ever be found in our
markets"

Why Japan Attacked.

st. Petersburg, March 2S-The news
of the reDulse of Vice Admiral Togos
second attempt to block Port Arthur
created much rejoicing in the Russian
capital and among all classes the gal
lantry of the SLIM and her commander
is the subject of high praise; but above
all the moral effect of Vice Admiral
Makaroff's willingness to engage the
enemy. showing that he considered
himself strong enough to fight, pro-
duced splendid impression.
In high official circles this new eff
fort to bottle up the Russian fleet is
looked upon as meaning only one thing.
namely. that the japanese. as stated by
the Associated Press on March oath,
are now preparing for heavy landing
of troops in the gulf of Lao Tung
either at New Chwang or on the west
coast of the Manchurian neutral zone.
to effect which in safety the immobility
solutely essential while the transports
are being conveyed around the south
ern end of the peninsula.
If the attempt had succeeded II
would have required several days at
least to blow up the steamers and clear
away the wreckage, during which time
the japanese would be assured of non
interference in the carrying out of their
purposes. The failure of the japanese
this morning may seriously hamper
their plans, as the ice in the Lao riv
er is going out and when the river is
free from ice its mouth can easily be
mined.

Habit of Doing ones Best.

The habit of always doing ones best
enters into the very marrow of ones
heart and character; it affects ones
bearing. ones self-possession. The man
who does everything to finish has
feeling OF serenity; he is not easily
thrown off his balance; he has nothing
to fear, and he can look the world in
the face because he feels conscious
that he has not put shoddy into any
thing, that he has had nothing to do
with shams, and that he has always
done his level best. The sense of eff
cheney, Of being master OF ones craft.
of being equal to any emergency, the
consciousness of possessing the ability
to do with superiority whatever one
undertakes. will give soul satisfaction
which half-hearted, slipshod worker
never knows.
When a man feels throbbing with
in him the power to do what he un-
dertakes as well as it can possibly be
done, and all his faculties say
Amen" to what he is doing. and give
their unqualified approval to his eff
forts-this is happiness; this is sue
cess. This buoyant sense of power
spurs the faculties to their fullest de-
velopment. 1t unfolds the mental, the
moral and the physical forces, and
this very growth, the consciousness of
an expanded mentality and broaden
ing horizon, gives an added satisfac-
tion beyond the power of words to de-
scribe. 1t is realization of nobility,
the divinity of the mind.-Success.

STATEMENT OF STRIKERS.
STORY Told by Deported Leaders Of
Southern Miners.

Denver, March PA dispatch to
the Republican from La Junta last
night says: William Wardjon, In
statement made in the Harvey hotel
here tonight, said that the only offense
on the part of the deported persons,
so far as he knew, was the fact that
they carried guns. These, he said.
were necessary to protect their homes
which had been broken into. He
charged that women had been insulted
by the intruders. In a public state
ment he said that the Citizens ALI
ance OF Trinidad. together with the
different interested corporations, had,
contributed 100000 toward hiring
deputies, end that each deputy should
have received SIS, when. in reality he
was getting SO per day.
Wardjon charged that Sheriff Clark
handled the money, that his "rake-off"
was large one and that. when
troops were finally requested. $l0,-
900 proposition had to be made to the
sheriff before the request received his
sanction.
Adolph Bartolli editor of the Italian
paper lie Trovatore Italiano, says he
was arrested Friday evening, Just as
his paper had come from the press and
was ready for distribution, and that
he was held until this afternoon with
out being allowed to circulate hls pa
per.
Wardjon further stated that he had
three warrants sworn out that should
have been served. but the officers of
the Justice court informed the deputy
sheriff that they should not be served.
He admits that there We're warrants
out for his arrest that were not
served charging him with disturbance,
but he saws this charge is groundless.
The deported persons were accom-
panied as far as La Junta by Capt. c.
A. Kelley and five militiamen, who.
after telling them they were never to
return to Trinidad, said they might go
where they pleased. The soldiers left
for Trinidad at an early hour this
morning and the deported leaders Will

from Trinidad. being sent to La Junta
on the Santa Fe.
The searching of houses throughout
the city for firearms caused consider
able excitement among the house
wives, but when the soldier boys po-
litely informed them of their errand.
they promptly obeyed. The registra-
tion of firearms at headquarters was
unusually heavy to-day and the de-
mand for passes greater than Adju-
tant Eaton was able TO supply.
Tonight all who had not secured the
coveted passes were forced to go home
at O'Clock. Major Hill said tonight
that he had no statement regarding
the situation to make public further
than that among the guns presented
for registration were three by Dr.
Grass OF especial interest. One was
carried by his grandfather in the Rev
olutionary War. one by his father In
the BLACK Hawk" War. and one by,
tne noted hlt SaTSOu, tue idlleii
weapon being known as the BLACK
Leg"
An unusually large crowd of people
thronged the streets all day, many
coming In from the country on their
regular weekly visits, and others out
of curiosity aroused by the presence
of state troops.
This morning details were sent to
all parts of the city and each resi-
dence was visited in search of fire.,
arms. Several wagon loads were ta-i
ken to headquarters, the owners being
given receipts that will entitle them
to reclaim their property when the
trouble is over.
Several arrests were made for at
tempts to steal weapons and disobey-
ing orders, but no serious trouble was
reported from any part of the county.
lin the various coal camps the search
for arms is being variously pushed
and great many are being found.
No report as to the number. however,
has been received.
