The above tabulation does not, how ever. present the full situation in re- gard to the use of telephones in the United States, though it will be fol- lowed by a more comprehensive publi- cation Of the same kind, which will not be among the least useful of the reports presented by the census bureau. It IS to be observed, however, that one Of the most useful directions in which telephone service has been extended is the creation of rural lines either of a mutual character CT owned and ope- rated by the commercial corporations engaged in the business, furnishing a means of communication in farming district or suburban sections not reach ed by the companies.
 It would seem impracticable thor oughly to present or digest all the facts in relation to this phase Of the subject. The present report of th' census bureau states, howeve-, that there are no less than 15.5OO of such systems, embracing 13S,50G miles O: wire, 121,OCO telephones in service and 25S,OOO party lines. The part which telephonic service is playing in the de- velopment of the ccuatry, the exten- sion of it's agricultural and business interests and the well-being Of all the inha bitants of the land is something which cannot be overestimated. and the above figures furnish a basis for Q good deal Of reflection upon the beae- fits which the inventions of Bell, Edi- son and the other workers in the same field have conferred rot only on their fellow-citizens. but on the rest of man. kind.

TROUBLES OF AN HEIREss.

It is one oi the Gr,m iron.es of fac that Young girl, barely of age. should De IF a sense responsible for the blood shed in the struggle between Russf1 ana Japan. owing to the fact that she supplied both powers with practical " all Of their guns. The young woman in question is Miss Krupp. who. cn the death of her father, became chief pr1- prietor of the wOrld-famed Kruop works at Essen and likewise beam the wealthiest woman in the world.
 The heiress seems to have inher'ted some of the family capacitiy for indus trial organization. for she takes lie greatest pride and delight in supe-- visirg the Wor. of the dfffer-nt re- partments, and declares that at g me future time she VIII have gained eur- hc!ent experience to take an active part in the direction of affairs.
 Meanwhile her interference in buz.- ness matters is limited to passive su- perV.sion, bur she takes a mora act-y-, part in controlling the management cf the numerous auxiliary departments Cf the establishment. The schools fo.- the children Of her employees and the hes nitals for the care of the sick receive regular visits from her. and she has T sharp eye for defects of all kinds.
 Throwing human nature. it fs hard V surprising to find that Mss Krupp's employees do not appreciate her god qualities and charitable ways Living In Miss Krupp's houses. sending the.r children to her schools, applying to he. hospitals when sick, attending her churches, drinking beer in h-r rps- taurants buying meat from her sIaurh- ter houses, flour from her mills, b ca. from her bakeries and hats and cIothes from her stores, makes them feel tFa. they are her serfs and not free born la bOrers
 Miss Krupp's charitable d.spositicn has become known to the general uJb- lie in Germany with the result that she receives. on an average. over 200 rur,- ly begging letters a day. and over 15) letters daily entreating her U grlnt some position in the works to sc1ne worthy young man.
 SFe also has to undergo some of tIie lnconVeniences which are general V confined to emperors and kings. Her vast wealth and the ownership Of an entire city make her a likely target f.,- anarchists bullets, and her fif-nds are in constant terror of aS as nation. For this reason her guardians have insisted on her being continually guarded by 2. special corps of detectives, who are af- ways in her Vicinity-London pary Mail.

IN based on fact. Captain Hains. who
is the author OF several books of the
sea, started for the Bermudas last win
ter with his wife, sailor and ascabin
boy In little yawI the Edna. They
encountered terrible storm. were
driven 400 miles out OF their course,
suffered starvation for Ave days, and
the little craft was rapidly sinking
when the party was rescued. Captain
Hams stuck manfuiiy by his boat. and
his story OF her actions In the midst
of the storm are thus described:
The sea grew heavier until It was

encountered In the gulf stream. where

As II drew toward evening again, the
wind freshened in a heavy squall. A
little rain fell and the tops Of the fol-
lowing combers grew more and more
dangerous. A huge fellow rose some
20 feet or more above ,is even while
the Edna was rising up the slope. and
through Its top the green light shone

and smashed my breast bone SO .solidly

cockpit was full OF water. but the
cabin doors held. watched the wave

banging from the inside and knew
that Anton was trying to get out "a

after the water ran of. ! opened the
catch and he came on deck. followed
by sam. The shock below was like
crash Of thunder and they were
ready to do what they could to save
our little ship.
Seeing that II was getting worse and
worse. and that something must be
done to keep her clear OF the following
seas, we decided TO rig drag OF the
anchor and whatever floats we could
lash to it. She could not take in any
more seas over her stern. Calling all
hands, / set Anton and Sam at work
getting up all the cork tenders. These
they lashed about their waists with
stout lines. The side ladder was also
called into use and bride bent to It.
Then came the dangerous task Of get

II had to be done. however, and there
could be no hanging back. Anton
looked about him for a few moments

likewise. ana then they both lay fat
and crawled forward along the top
