HE. WAS IN A HURRY.

We were waiting for train at sta- tion in the country. The station agent combined the offices of trainmaster, ex- press agent, telegraph operator and the rest. He looked wise when you asked him a question-but he wasn't.
 "Does the next train carry a dining car?" we asked.
 Wal" he said, looking for wide crack in the platform before he em2tied an overload of tobacco juice from between his teeth "I can't just rightly say. I ain't never tuk much interest in them cyars.''
 Does it stop at Swamptown?" was the next question. The agent was clearly uncertain on this point.
 Well. when is it due?" we asked. anxious to learn if he was certain of anything about the train.
 Wal, it's due at ha'f pas or ha'f pas fo', I furgit which," he replied T kinder open up about an hour after dinner and set aroun' till dark. Hit don't make much difference to me when she comes.'

THE TRANSVAAL MINE.

The smelter for the Transvaal Min
 ing company property passed through the city enroute to NacoZari, says the Douglas International. From there it will be started out to the mines to- morrow. Other machinery recently re- ceived hy the company and now on the way from Nacozari to the mines in- cludes a sixty-horse boiler, a big blow
 CT and several other smaller items of equipment From this it will be seen that the Transvaal people are going in for business strictly according to the programme that they announced in the ioeginning; blocking out of ore sufIi- cient to do business with and the in- stallation then of machinery. The company has no stock on the market but holds an abundance of money in the treasury to pay it's way as it goes until its ore puts it on a paying basis.
 This it is reasonable to expect from from the amount and quality blocked out will be within a very short time after the reduction equipment now on the way to the mines gets in operation.

THE FRAU's HOUSEHOLD BUDGET
A More Exact and Specific Listing Than the Average American Desires.

A curious contribution 10 the I.tera- | ture of household economy is made through the current number of Good Housekeeping in an article by the Couptess Aida von Krockow. House | keeping Among German Gentry is the title of the paper. 'I believe" says the countess, that have never known . family. except among the working classes, in which a fixed sum was not allowed for housekeeping expenses; and I have known no mistress of such family who has failed to restrict ex- Denses within her allowance"
 An explanation of the exactness in balances lies undoubtedly in the mi nuteness of expense detail provided fer in the family budget. The actual item ization for a years housekeeping set down by a Berlin gentleman whose income IS about s6.O0O year Is cited by the countess. Besides the rent of ten rooms, about S750: servants wages and Christmas fees, s170; provision TOT food and wine, S120, and for fuel and light. S17O, this budget includes items which make it an interesting study. It pro- vides in advance for ten afternoon re captions, called "coffees." which are to cost s75, and for four evening parties, "suppers," at an expense of $50. The wife may have four new party dresses and two house dresses, the elder daugh- ter three party dresses and two house dresses, the younger daughter one new gown, all to cost S255. For a summer tour with three children $500 Is allow ed. Toward the daughters dover $500 must be put aside. For concerts, op- eras, club dues, etc. there Is S125. Washing-twelve times a year-may cost S75, and should be worth it.
 There are items for insurance, va riOus charitable and church funds and
 strange to American ideas-pensions for sister, d decrepit former tutor and an old servant A son who is a lieu tenant must have $500 year for spend- ing money, while a younger son gets 80 pocket money and $112.50 for tu- ition. Pir money for wife and daugh- ters amounts to s129. With ciga,s. doctors and dentists bills and sundry expenses allowed for. the budget-maker preceives a surplus of something like s100 for the year.
 Against the German housewife's dis advantage. according to the American Vl'W. m being Tor the sake or careful management her own head servant, the countess urges the busy frau's freedom from trouble with "the ser want problem.1 This is an argument that counts. But it is suspected that most American wives would count it a trife arduous to live on a penny-by- penny schedule, even for the certainty of keeping the same cook two success sive years-at $54 per year!-New York World.

PROBABLE PEACE.
The Matter in Dispute May be Left to
 Arbitration.

Chicago, July 13.-An arbitration of grievances which precipitated the gen. eral strike in the meat packing houses in various parts of the country appears tonight to be in sight and a confer ence between the employers and strik- CTS may be held tomorrow morning. An initial step toward the settlement of the controversy by mediation was taken late this evening by the state board of arbitration. When the members of the board reached Chicago they at once went into conference with Mi chaeI J. Donnelly, leader of the strike and listened to the story of his side of the trouble. The members of the board then interviewed representatives of tba packers and their side of the diff |. culty was heard. As a result of these two conferences. MT. Donnelly sent communication to the packers in which it was stated that the unions were will ing to accept a sediment through the board of arbitration. No reply is ex- pected from the employers before te- morrow, but it is confidently expectel that their reply will be ,conciliatory. because they offered to arbitrate the matter in diSpute before the strike was called.
 MT. Donnelly declared tonight tha: the offer of arbitration from the pack CTS had not reached him before the strike was called and that if the pack CTS will again make the same propo- sition it will be accepted by the unions. The members of the state board of ar bitration said tonight that in their opinion all those in control of the struggle on both sides appeared anx- ious to adopt conciliatory measures and peaceable settlement of the trouble would undoubtedly be reached in d short time. Shortly after II o'clock to- night, after assiduously using tele- phones between the headquarters of the unions and the packers. the state board of arbitration arranged a meet ing between the officers of the unions and representatives of packers for 10 tomorrow morning.
