Ships of the Desert Still Carry Iercllan-

Ships of the Desert stu Carry Merchan-
disc in Caravans.
1t will not be long before railroads
will have pushed we'll into Asia Minor,
and then the centre OF Asia will begin
to wake up, but to-day it is still impos-
sible to ship goods into Turkestan or
Persia or Arabia by any means other
than the caravan, just as goods were
shipped i'll the days Of King Solomon.
If anything, the roads are little
worse now than they were then, and
caravan bound from Teheran or Bag
dad to the interior may be months and
even years on the way.
This fact has made it necessary for
many an American merchant TO study
queer things about story book land i'll
order to know just how his goods must
be packed and shipped out of America,
so that they will be in the proper con-
dition for loading on camel and mule
back in the desert towns, whence they
start on their strange voyages.
An American shipper of goods for ex-
port into Far Eastern countries must
know just how much q camel can carry
and over what kind Of a road it will
have to travel; for in many places the
roads are over mountain sides that are
so narrow that the size OF the package
is of the utmost Importance.
Thus, shippers in the United States
who do business with the Orient have
had to learn that the merchandise must
be packed in tin or zinc-lined cases, be-
cause it is sure to be subjected to fierce
storms in shelterless trails. They have
had to learn that a camel load is two
packaC0S of 2G0 pounds each. Mules,
according to the caravan drivers ia
bles, can carry two packages, one on
each side, each weighing 163 pounds.
These packages must not be longer
than four feet, wider than two feet or
deeper than one and d half feet. Pack
ages of this size can just scrape
through some of the dizzy defiles lead
ing into wild Asia.
At Ispaban about 300 mule and cam
ell loads Of merchandise are received
or shipped every month during the
trading season.-~Sayaanah News.

Factory and School in One.

One of the curiosities of current lit
erature is the incrcc sing number OF
monthly magazines published by big
industrial concerns IL this country and
in Europe. The cost of production and
the work of editing these little peri
odicals is borne by the firms, their sole
purpose being to form what sociolo-
gists call "a point of contact between
the employer and employed. The text.
which is often illustrated with good
half-tones, concerns everything that
relates to the social si6e of the en-
ployes daily life as employees, and
there are departments given over to
helpful hints" that answer inquiries
Of all sorts. The magazine issued by
the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company
is printed in Italian and German, as
we'll as in English. The CadburyS, the
cocoa manufacturers Of England, had
a contest for amateur photographers
recently, fine reproductions Of the prize
winning pictures being reproduced in

contest was limited to the employees
of the works, and the results were eX-
trcmely good.-New York Press.

she takes, but after that you will have
to entertain her."

If she can have the benefit of my three
years experience when she has been

arranging her hair differently. That
is the keynote to the appearance. Per-

DIX Is LIKE
A NOAH'S ARK

The famous old craft commanded by
one ancient mariner by the name of
Noah in the early days of the shipping
industry could hardly boast of a finer
or more valuable cargo of livestock
than that of the United States Army
Transport Dix which should arrive from
San Francisco this morning. The cargo
of the Dix consists of 235 head of stall
lions, CEILINGS, mares and mules and
sixty-five head of cattle. All the ami
mails are thoroughbreds and very valu-
able, the total valuation of the cargo
being $4,000. The cattle are shipped
on deck and most of the other animals
tween decks. The vessel carries 1000
tons of hay. $3.50 tons of oats and 1900
tons of fresh water. The thorough
bred stations are all quartered in box
stalls and a visit to the ship will be
we'll worth while. The Dix left San
Francisco at noon July 26th.

MONGOLIA HAS
NEW CAPTAIN

The big Pacific Mail liner Mongolia,
which is due from San Francisco this
morning, will be under the command of
a new captain. J. H. Kinder, who COM
manded the vessel ON her last voyage,
has been given sick leave. This is what
is stated to the public but it is per-
sistently reported in San Francisco
shipping circles that the captain has
been relieved because of the accident
which necessitated the docking of the
vessel at San Francisco. The ship was
locked so that a chain which was tam
gled up in the propellers might be re-
moved. 1t is said that this chain was
picked up by the steamer when pass
ing the P. & o. liner Rajah in Yoko-
hama bay. The Mongolia had an en-
counter with that vessel when leaving
the Japanese port and it is said that
the chain was trailing behind the P. &
o. boat. The officers of the company
deny that Kinder has been laid off.

officers in the Pacific Mail service and

EXCITEMENT ON
LINER SONOMA

The Oceanic liner Sonoma got in early
yesterday morning from San Francisco
with a small passenger list. Nothing
of interest happened during the voy-
age except the assault made on First
Assistant Engineer Macintosh by a
coal passer named Lucero. About four
hours after the steamer left port Luz
Zero, who, it is said, tried to incite
the men to nutiny, refused to go to
work when ordered to by the assistant
engineer and on that officers attempt
ing to force him to discharge his duties
struck him over the left eye, causing
a bad cut. Eucero was placed in irons.
He is said to have been drinking. He
was arrested by United States Marshal
Hendry on the arrival of the steamer in
port and was committed by United
States Commissioner Judd to the Octo-
Der term of court. Bail was fixed at
81. 600.
The steamer had a large general
cargo for this port and the discharge
