THE COFFEE MOUNTAINS.
United States Minister Lyon De-
scribes Trip Into the Interior
OF Liberia.


The minister resident and consul
general of the United States at Monro-
via, Liberia, Mr.. Ernest Lyon, under
date OF March 2, 1904, reports in regard
to trip recently made into the in
terror of that country to the Coffee
mountains. The journey was made in
hammocks carried on the shoulders of
native boys, which was the only safe
mode OF travel. Mr.. Lyon stopped at
Crozierville. and reports that about
nine-tenths of the commodities used by
the people are imported from the
United States, and that the Inhabitants
show a preference for American goods.
The minister states that he was inn
pressed with the native shrewdness
and business intelligence. The Coffee
mountains do not now compete in the
coffee trade as heretofore, owing to the
large cultivation of that berry along
the coast and the improved methods
of raising and preparing it which are
in use there.
The Coffee mountains are covered
with rich timber, consisting of mahog-
any, oak, cedar, rosewood, mangrove,
ironwood, poplar, burrwood and many
other varieties. The fora is interest
ing and possesses many valuable me-
dicinal herbs, which can be utilized as
o medicine for the diseases common to
Africa.

CHILDREN AS INcUBAToRs.
Destitute Russian Peasant Woman
Sets Offspring to Matching Eggs
to Prevent Starvation.

Pathos and humor are combined in a
singular story from Russia, relating to
poor peasant woman living near Vile
tka, who was left absolutely destitute
with six children to support. At last a
luminous idea struck her. She suggested
to the neighboring poultry farmers that
she should relieve them from the trouble
and expense Of using incubators for
Matching chickens and turkeys.
They agreed. and the eggs. carefully
secured from injury in wooden cases and
packed in wool. were placed in the chill
dren's cots, which were constantly oc-
cupied, day and night, by the six little
ones in turn during the three weeks re-
CURED for incubation.
AS each Of the cots contained 400 eggs
200 on each side--the human incu-
bators succeeded in Matching 200 eggs
at a time, for which they received one
cent an egg, or $12. Their earnings,
therefore. for lying in bed for 81 days
amounted to exactly four dollars week,
sum far exceeding the average wage

Uncle sam Now owns Canal Route.


PARIS, April 23.--The contract by
which the ownership of the Panama
canal passes to the United States is
now signed, sealed. delivered and conf
p1ete. The title to the canal route Is
now vested in the government of the
United States. The document by
which this transaction is consummat-
ed bears the signatures of President
30 and Director Rich1nan Of the Pan
anna Canal company. who signed for
the company as its responsible officials.
The transfer is complete and without
reservation, and the United States Sc
cures a perfect title. This result has
been accomplished quietly and most
unexpectedly, as the public had been
given to understand that the contract
would not be executed until after the
meeting of the stockholders of the
Panama Canal company today. Only
a few OF the highest officers Of the
company are now aware of the secret,
which will not be known except by
this announcement in the United
States up to the time Of the meeting.

70 CLEAN PLAGUE SPOTS.
Marine Hospital Representatives. Urg-
ing Southern Counties TO De-
stroy Fever Districts.

The cleaning Of Havana and Santa
so has practically left Mexico the
worst fever district That country,
says the Buffalo Express, is never free
from the disease, though the indica-
tlons are that, rs q result OF the severe
epidemic OF last year, a different story
may soon be told. With Mexico out OF
the way--for it may be expected thac
the Mexican government will carry out
the promises it recently made to rep
resGntatives Of the United States mar
Inc hospital service to destroy the
plague spots and enforce sanitary regu-
lations--the Central and South Ameri-
can countries are left to deal with.
Some OF the latter have said within a
year that they would clean their ports,
but such statements cannot be relied
upon.
1t is for this reason that the sanitary
work which the United States will be
obliged to do along the canal strip
will have more beneficial results than
simply making the district healthy
place to live in The influence of that
work will be felt in Central and South
America, and it unquestionably will
spur the negligent governments to do
their share in preventing epfdemics.
This phase OF the canal question has
attracted little attention, but it is OF
far-reaching importance. The build
ing of such waterway as the 18TH
milan canal will be great attainment,
but of hardly less value to mankind
will be the cleansing OF the foul cities
to the north and south Of the isthnus.

IN spite OF this fact, however, II is ev-
ident that the readjustment process is
incomplete, and the real turn cannot
be expected until values have de-
clined in other than security markets
Wall street has suffered all and more
than it should in the form OF a
shrinkage in values; but enterprise is
still held in check by the extreme
high cost of everything that goes into

wages are often at prohibitIve level,
and until these have undergone their
inevitable share OF the general read
