SETTLING MEXICAN STRIKE

Strikes are unknown in the Mexican mines" said Dr. Frank J. Toussant, in speaking about conditions in Mexico, where, ac. cording to the Milwaukee Sen tinel, he spends considerable of his time. "While down on my recent trip to Huepac, Sonora, heard of an attempt to strike. The men urged on by number of agita tors, formulated protest against their hours and wages and threat. ened to go out on a strike if their demands were not complied with. The operators scarcely had time to look over the demands made by their men when word came from the government in Mexico City to arrest the agita. tors immediately.

 CERTAINLY A BRAVE CtCt
Daily Task of Invalid Rural Tail Carrier in Helping Her
 Mother.

The bravest girl in the state of New Jersey on Uncle Sam's list of rural mail carriers is Miss Villa Potter, of Willow Grove, says the New York Times. She carries the mail from Newfield, Gloucester county, to Porchtown and the sur rounding county, covering a route of 29 miles all told.
 Miss Potter has been an invalid for IS years, being a victim of ty- phoid fever when 13 years old. Her father, Michael Potter, was killed in a well several years ago, and her brother, Frank, died carrying the mail. Then she determined to help her mother make a living.
 Every morning her mother wheels her out to the mail wagon and assists her To get in. The farmers all along the route built the boxes close to the roadside, so that the invalid can deliver the mail without getting out, for she cannot stand alone. Her mother takes care of three horses and two cows, and by the help of her daugh. ter makes a comfortable living.
 Miss Potter's appointment two years ago was enthusiastically ap- proved by the people, who, she says, show her every possible kindness. Her popularity in. creases because of her punctual- ity.

ENGLAND'S IMMIGRATION.
Problem That Is Giving That Coun- try Something Difficult to
 Cope With.

One of the burning questions of the day in England is alien immi. grafton. There is a strong and growing agitation in favor of re- stricting it somewhat on the lines adopted in this country, and the government has pledged itself to legislate against undesirable im- migrants, either in the present session of parliament or the next.
 Nevertheless, says an eastern exchange, England's immigration problem is a mere bagatelle com pared with America's. Only one person in ITO in the United King dom is an alien not naturalized as a British subject. In London, where the foreigners congregate most thickly, the proportion is l in 40; and in some of the London slums 1 in 12.
 New York has daily newsppa- pers printed in German, French, Italian, Spanish and Yiddish and other publications in at least q score of different tongues, includ- ing Arabic, Chinese and Japanese. London has only one foreign news paper, which is printed in German and issued weekly. This fact alone shows how much smaller are the foreign colonies there than in New York.
 England has benefited immense iy in the past from immigration, and many of her greatest men to. day are descended from immi- grants.

SIZE OF SHIPS INCREASING
1t Will Not Be Long Before a Thou sand-Foot Steamer Will
 Be Built.

S-The average length of ships has increased from 90 to 60 per cent. During the last quarter of cen tury, says Brysson Cunningham, in Cassier's Magazine. The 455 feet of The Britannia of 1874 seems al- most insignificant compared with the TOP feet of the latest White Star liner, the Cedric, and the 760 feet of the projected Cunarders. The 1,000-foot vessel will assur- sdly not be long in coming. Berths are even now being devised to ao- cord with this standard and en- trance locks heightened. A few years back 300 feet were consid- cred an extreme dimension; now adays this is deemed very moder- ate. The length of an entrance lock does not, of course, absolute ly limit the size of vessels.
 The beam of ships has increased more rapidly than the length. The beam of the Britannic was 45 feet, and d ratio between length and breadth of about 10 to 1 was maintained fairly we'll until ten years ago, when the Campania was built with a breadth of 65 feet to a length of 600 feet. At present the dimensions exhibited in the Cedric and Celtic, length 6S0 feet, breadth 75 feet; the Wal mer Castle, length 570 feet, breadth 64 feet, and other vessels indicate a decided tendency to- ward the establishment of a ratio of to 1. The maximum beam does not yet exceed IS feet, which is amply covered by entrance locks and passages so to LOO feet in width, constructed 50 years ago under the regime of paddle steam CTS. Consequently the increase in beam has not had so perceptible an effect on dock construction as the increase in length.
 Only In depth has the progress of naval construction been less marked. The draught of the Cam pania, g feet in 1893, was no greater than that of some vessels 20 years before. The largest Ger man types have a loaded draught of only 29 feet, while the most modern British vessels attain to g feet, but in neither case Is the increase proportional to that of the other dimensions. This dis crepancy is due to the difficulty of obtaining adequate depth of wa ter in approach channels and over the sills of existing docks.

TOWN WHERE FUEL IS FREE
Shoe Factories of Lynn, Mass, Supply the People the Wornout
 Lasts.

"Go to Lynn if you want free fuel" said Bostonian, recently. You can get in Lynn the best wood in the world for nothing. The town of Lynn is full of enor nous and magnificent shoe fac ories. These factories, in order keep their product fashionable md correct, change their lasts very season. Thus as soon as a eason is over thousands of lasts become worthless except for burn. ng.
 "The manufacturers might sell ae lasts, but for some reason or ter they don't do this. They give them away. And the Lynn people appreciate this generosity. At any rate it is possible in their beautiful town to see a Lynn man with grateful look on his face taking home a load of lasts in a cart.
 The lasts make admirable fires, The good, hard wood in them re.s redhot and burns with a gIcat glow of heat for long time, ike coal. The only trouble is their shape. They look, you know, like feet. To see them flaming in fire. place gives a stranger a shock al first. He wonders if he has hap. pened in upon the end of a crema. tion.'

TALK WITH A KAFFIR CHIEF
Much Is Expressed by Grunts and Short Exclamations-Mak-
 ing the Chief See.


 The amount of greeting among ordinary Kaffirs is to say: Il see you;" to which answer comes back: "Yes." When a native passes European in the unclyll- ized parts of the country, says MT. Dudley Kidd, in "The Essential Kafir," he will frequently antlcl- pate the white mans T see you," and will start off with a loud "Yes."
 Of all ways of expressing senti- ment. grunting is the fayorite, and the Kafir grunts with great eloquence. His simple grunt can express a whole world of senti. ment. After hearing natives ex- press so much. by grunting one cannot avoid thinking that pigs might learn to speak.
 Kafrs have very many exelama- tions, such as "Yow when they wish to show contempt; "Hauw when. they show surprise; "Woww and many other similar utterances.
 In visiting a chief it is rude to speak first. Accordingly, when we visited Kafir king we sat in si- lence and pretended not to see him. At length he looked up at us and said: "1 see you," and the ice was broken. We grunted approy- al of the sentiment and said the proper things. When the ques- tions began to be little too per- sonal we told our native servant to fetch the blanket we had brought with us in order to open the chiefs eyes.
 When we gave the chief the blanket he looked at it and gave q grunt which was one of moderate and guarded approval. He felt the qualities of the blanket with his fingers, placed it to his skin to see how warm il would be he then showed it to his councillors and asked them bluntly what they sup posed it had cost When he was satisfied that it was better than any kept by local traders, he gave another grunt of approval which plainly said: Thanks; think that on the whole it is not bad; have seen better, but it will do all the same"
 Then he said in words: "Now my eyes are open and 1 can see you" In fun I began to chaff him and said: Well, if you can see us now, will you tell us what you can see?"
 Swift as light came the an. swer: q shall know what I see when the night is cold and l wrap the blanket about my body"
 A native never commits himself If he can possibly help it. After a little more desultory conversa- tion the chief thought it was time to end the indaba, "to hem up the fringes of the talkwith the thread made from the sinew of an OK" as their expressive phrase runs. So we hemmed it up.

 ''To get q mining claim in Mex. leo is the easiest thing in the world; all you have to do is to find some stone, tree, or other mark and then draw an imaginary line around as much of tract as you want and then make your de. nouncement. This will cost vou S32.50. X surveyor will then be sent out and measure off as many rods as you want. He will take about $100 for his services. The plot which he prepares now goes to the capital and in due course of time you will be asked to pay a tax equal to about $10 for a parcel of land the size of city block. The tax must be paid annually, and as long as you do this you will be considered the owner of that claim."

MOST ANCIENT HIGHWAY.
One of the Oldest Routes in the World Used by Cara vans of the
 Arabians.

The road from Hons to Hama runs almost due north, straight white line cutting across the green fields. It is one of the old est routes in the world. Cara vans have been passing along Ii flor at least 5000 years, just as we saw them-long strings of slow moving camels with their bright colored bags of wheat, says Serb ner's Magazine.
 One could almost imagine that Pharaoh was again calling down the corn of Klamath to fill his granaries against the seven years of famine. But even here the old things are passing. Just beyond the long line of camels was long CT line of fellah women, their dirty blue robes kilted above their knees, carrying upon their shoulders baskets of earth and stone for the roadbed of the new French railway. The carriage road is French, too, and very good road it is. Some men were repairing it with most ingenious roller. It was great round stone, drawn by two oxen, and having it's axle prolonged by a 20foot pole, It the end of which a bare-legged Arab was fastened to balance the whole affair. If the stone had top pied over the picture of the Arab dangling at the top Of the slender flagstaff would have been worth watching.
 All along the ride we were re- minded of the past. It is fertile soil, but the very wheat fields are different from ours. Only a few yards in width, they are often of tremendous length. l hes itate to commit myself to fig ures, but it is certain that the thin, green fields would stretch away in the distance until lost over some little elevation. At one place the road was cut through hill honeycombed with rock tombs, which the haj said were Jewish. Every now and then we passed a tell, or great hem. ispherical mound, built up of the rubbish of a dozen ruined towns, for even as late as Roman times this was a well-cultiyated and pop. ulous country. There is now no lumber available for building purposes, and in a number of vii. lages the houses are built with conical roofs of stone. Where the rock happens to be of a reddish tinge the houses remind one of nothing so much as a collection of Indian wigwams; where the stone is white, as at Tell el Biseh, it gilt ters and sparkles like fairy city cut out of loaf sugar.
