THE contract was out in the coun-
try, and Mr.. Clark couldn't get new
men to substitute, and the diggers
kept doin' less and less all the time.
He was losin' money right and left on
the contract, and one night, with a
grave face, he was countin' up his
losses, when a thought struck him.
He put this thought into effect
right away, and the result was some
thin wonderful. The diggers, instead
of only doin' about an eighth of a
mans work, now done near ten mems
work apiece. They shaved away like
maniacs. You could hardly get 'em
to stop. In fact, Wednesday and
Thursday two of 'em dug all Right by

dug in no time.
"And this was all due to Mr.. Clark's
cleverness. You see, he had buried in
the earth, where the diggers would be
sure to turn it up with their spades, a
very old, ancient piece Of parchment,
with these here words on it:

Profits of the Packers.

There has been a great deal Of dis
appointment because the Garfield re-
port shows that the profits of the
packing industry only amount to
about two per cent of the volume of
business transacted. There is no
doubt, however, that the report is cor
rect.
The census reports compiled by the
government in 1900, before the agita-
ton regarding the beef trust" began,
throw considerable light on this ques-
ton. 1t appears from the census that
the packing industry is conducted on
a smaller margin of gross profit than
any other industry in America. The
gross margin of profit of 871 flour and
grist mills in Illinois, in the census
year. was nearly seven per cent on
the volume of business. The gross
margin of fifty-one wholesale slaugh-
tering and meat packing establish
ments In Illinois was only about one
third as large, or little more than
two per cent on the volume of bust
ness.
The millers have not been accused
of being in a trust" and combina-
tons would seem impossible in bust
ness where there are several thousand
mills in the United States competing
actively for the flour trade, but 1t ap-
pears that the gross profits of the mill
ers are larger than the gross profits
Of the packers. 1t may turn out that
the agitation regarding the packing
industry will show the same result as
the devil found in shearing the pig:

THE commanding officer desires to
communicate to the troops on

1t was subject of very wide comment
on the part of the citizens of the city.
The facts that from eleven hundred
men not a single case of disorderly con-
duct was reported and that not single
man was absent when the hour of de-
parture arrived, speak for themselves.
1t should be noted that in addition to
the 776 enlisted men of the 21st Infantry
there We're 800 recruits on board, and
the example of the older and more
trained soldiers had the necessary
moral effect on the younger and less
trained men.
Permission was given by the COM
handing officer for the 21st Band to
give two concerts, and on each occa-
sion the people of the city turned out
en- masse to do it honor. They showed
that the endeavor to please them was
