COFFEE AND TEA FIGURES.
British Subjects Consume But Little of the Former-United States
 Surpassed by Brazil

The people of the United States drink znore coffee than any other nation on earth says a writer in the St. Louis be-Democrat, 'sbut not as much In proportion as the people of certain other countries. When the difference in popu- lation Is taken into consideration, Brazil far surpasses us as a country of coffee drinkers. Belgium and Holland also ex- eel us In this respect.
 The consumption of coffee per capita 50 Brazil is 14 pounds each year, in Bull gium and Holland it Is II pounds, while gn the United States each person in the population consumes an average of about eight bounds of coffee yearly. England ls away behind in the procession, with a consumption of only one-half pound per capita annually, but the amount of tea consumed on atf average in that country by each person Is five times as great as kn the United States"

STUDY OF AMATEUR FACES
Probably the Best Place to Inspect Expressions Is at the Photo
 graphic Supply Counter.

The best place at which to study the various expressions of the human face, says the Chicago Inter Ocean. is the developing and printing counter of a Photographic supply shop. Men and women who take snapshots seem to Forget that any one Is near them when the clerk hands out the results of their fell work with the camera, even when, as the usually are at this season of the year. in the midst of a crowd of customers.
 The moment the amateur receives his prints he opens the envelope eag- erly and inspects them, hurriedly at hrst, then going over then at leisure, but 50 utterly oblivious to his sur roundings that he stands being jostled rHnd pushed in the crowd and yet never seems to think of moving away to some quieter corner of the shop. An noyance is written large on his face at plates or films that have been failures. The pride, and pleasure he takes in a successful picture is no less marked. But the crowning touch of happiness is reached when he has achieved sue cessful picture of his .'best girl" Men may be showing him on either side, others may be behind him reaching over his shoulders to get their prints. But none pr rnrse things move him. He stands gazing with rapt eyes at the beIoved one's face.

PLANT cREPT TO SUNLIGHT
Vine Belonging to Castle Valley, Pa. 1 Resident Creeps Out of Shadow
 of Window Shutter.

t Y -lf . w 4
 Though it has never been proved ] that plants have brains, declared the Baltimore Herald. 1t has been proved often that there is some power within them whereby they combat evil condi- ,tions and seek what Is best for their good. A resident of Castle Valley, Pa, has & vine that showed itself last month to have, if not brain, sub- |stitute of equal value.
 This vine, young one, grew in a clay pot A stick stood in the middle of the pot and the vine curled up it. It was about two feet in height; in length, uncurled, it would have meas ured four feet.
 Usually the vine was placed in 3 south window every morning, where it absorbed light all day. It happened 2 however, through an oversight, that one afternoon shutter shaded half the window and the vine was set in the shutters shadow. A foot away was the sunlight, warm, glittering, life giving, but where the plant stood there was nothing but gloom
 During the four days the vine stood in shadow with the sunlight near it tt did something that proved 1t to have a faculty akin to intelligence. 1t un- curled itself from It's supporting stick, and, like a living thing, it crawled over the window ledge to the sun.

WOMEN DESERVE CREDIT.
Have Secured ornamentation of Gov ernment Building Grounds at
 Helena, Mont.

The women of Helena, Mont, have shown their sisters all over the coun- try what persistence in a good cause can accomplish. The grounds sur rounding the government building at Montana's capital are noted as among the most beautifu4 in the country and for this fact all the credit Is due the women of the city. After the struc- lures were finished no appropriation was made for laying out the grounds properly, and they were left bare and sunattraetive. The women decided 1t was reproach to their state to leave the grounds so naked of verdure and they succeeded in getting enough money from their treasury to buy young trees. These they watered and tended with their own hands for three years and of the 150 trees set out they lost only four. At the end of the three years the women got bill through the legislature providing for the care of the government grounds, and since then the trees have been cared for by a state gardener But to the women belongs the credit of the beautiful lawns.

Action of Fall River Operatives To-
 day May Start Great Strike.
 FALL RIVER, Mass, July 25.-With hope of a peaceful settlement abandon ed, both sides in the pending industrial trouble here await with dogged deter imitation the coming today of the first test of strength between a little group of manufacturers representing com bined capital of $25,OOO,OOo on one side and more than 25,0OO cotton mill opera tives on the other.
 The mill gates will be opened at the usual time, when the operatives will be given an opportunity to go to work un- der wage reduction of 121a per cent. If an insufficient number respond the mills will be closed for an indefinite pe- riod. The strike leaders were of the opinion that there would not be enough operatives applying for work through out the entire city to run even one mill, to say nothing of the eighty or more that are affected by the strike. The manufacturers, on the other hand, claim that the 2,000 union men who voted to strike do not represent the sen timent of the great body of cotton mill employees. They give the total num- Der of operatives on their pay roll as 25.630. This, of course, does not in- clude the employees at the independent mills of M. c. D. Borden, which are not involved.
 The talk on the streets, however, in dicates that the feeling against the manufacturers is quite as bitter among the nonunion operatives as it is among those who are affiliated with the labor organizations

ACTION SAVES MANY.
Captain of Ferryboaf Rammed Makes
HarbOr Quickly

New York, April 23.-A hundred pas
sengers on the ferryboat South Side,
plying in the East river between Tenth
street and Green Point, have been
saved from possible death by quick ac-
ton on the part of captain of New
Haven Railroad transfer-boat. The
ferry boat so yards out in the stream,
making for the slip at the foot OF
Tenth street, when she was Tammed
by the big float carrying Is freight
cars The floats PROV penetrated
nearly to thee enter of the ferry boat
on the side Of the ladies' cabin. The
passengers fed in terror, many of the
women in the cabin having been cut
and bruised by flying glass and splint-
erS.
The captain of the transfer-boat
realized that if he backed off the ferr!
boat would float helplessly away and
sink. Whistling for help, he ordered
on all pressure, pushed the helpless
ferryboat toward the docks, and sue
ceeded in showing it against the pier OF
the slip where the passengers quickly
scrambled through the windows and
over piles of freight to the street. A
few minutes later the South Side set
tied to the bottom.
Darkness and storm, together with a
misunderstanding of signals, probably
caused the accident.

BATTLE WAS AT LONG RANGE.
japanese Fleet Kept Five to Eight
Niles From Russians.

St. Petersburg, Aug. 19.-FurtEer
interesting details of the sea battle of
August 10 rec eeived at the admiralty
from Captain M Matouzevitch, of the
Czarevitch- now at Tsin Tau: show dis
tinctly that it was long range fight
and that the Russians, sailing in close
formation, were placed at great dis
advantage, not only by the superiority
of the Japanese numbers, but owing to
the fact that after encompassing Ad-
miral Withoeft's vessel they were ena-
bled to pour in a remarkably deadly
fire on the fleeing ships.
The captain says the japanese kept
at distance of eight, and never less
than five miles. The efforts of the
Russians to close with the japanese
and sink some of their vessels by ram
ming them or by gun6re. even at the
cost of themselves going to the bottom,
were unsuccessful. The Japane>e
would not perm it the Russians to ap-
proach, but the rain of projectiles never
ceased.
