Developing the rata~ba,

View for the Future.

and ut others almost definite, TO
the effect that a movement was
on foot to make some large water
power development on the Ca.
tawba river, south Of the Catawba
Power Company's plant. Those
who are Interested have steadily
refused to give any Information in
with their purposes
and intention. Out of what we
have seen, however, and of land
transactions, the records of which
are open to everybody, the evi-
dence all points toward the de-
vclopments which may be de-
scribed tentatively as follows:
The plans are now nearly per-
fccted for the development Of the
water power at the Great Falls on
the Catawha, near Chester and
Winnsboro. At this point prop
critics have been gotten together
extending up and down the river
for distance Of eight miles, con-
trolling I73 feet fall. This power
will be developed in units, with
onc-tbird its total capacity; each
unit will give from So, 900 to so.
900 horse power. At one of these
points the developments can be
quickly and cheaply made. This
work will be undertaken without
further delay and can be finished
within year to is months, ac-
cording to the flow Of the river.
1t is the idea of those interested
to put power into Gastonia and
considerable more power into
Charlotte Connections will be
made from the Great Falls to the
Catawba Power Company's plant
in such way that any Of the
plants can be run in co-oPeration
with any other. The main line
will carry the current at a., 900
volts.
The same people also own the
wateree water power, near Cam
den, and when the three new de-
velopments are completed at the
Great Falls, then the Wateree
power will be developed for 49,
900 or 10000 horse power.
Taking the five developments to
gethcr, viz: the Catawba Power
Company's plant, near Rock Hill
the three new proposed develop
ments at the Catawba Falls; and
the development Of the Wateree
power near Camden, all Of which
are within 40 uiles, there will be
a power ofIIo, 900 horses all told.
This power, on the basis OF
80 spindles per horse power on
coarse goods, would operate 3d.
800, 900 spindles; on a basis of
40 spindles per horse power on
fine goods. it would operate A.
400, 900. This is on a basis of
the minimum flow Of the river,
and if the average flow should be
considered and the value of the
sto age basins should also be con-
sidcred, their developments when
completed would operate 5,ooo,-
900 spindles. OF course all this
power will not be used for run
ming cotton spindles. Part Of it
is already in use in Charlotte for
the city, for running ma
chine shops, and for all sorts of
manufacturing interests. The
company expects to bring it's
wires and currents this way to a
very large extent. The plans are
not yet completed, but it NAV be
arranged to carry power TO Co.
lumbia and Charleston. Of course
Winnsboro, Chester and Rock
Hill will get an ample supply for
all their paaJ.

Moves receive liberal pensions In tnelr
old age or in case of sickness. he
also provides literally for the WIDOWS
and children out of his private purse.
All these payments consume iarse
proportion Of the profits, so that tue
Emneror,s income from his estates IS
comparatively small.
Practically speaking, the German
EmDeror is thus obliged to live on MS
ROYAL income of $4,000,00O per annuln'
which is altogether insufficient FOR MS
requirements. The Kaiser has no per-
sonaI extrayagances, but lives SIM
Mo and strenuous life Of hard work
and little luxury. He spends llttle
money on his table, for the CUISINE Oh
the German imperial residence is no
torious for it's inferiority.
The Kaiser is not dandy, and
spends a comparatively small amount
every year on his clothes. The horses
he rides are not Of particularly
good breed. and not unusually expen-
siye. He is not a gambler, and does
not indulge in other designations when
would be excusable in his position.
He is, however, extrayagant In one
respect, namely, in keeping up the
imperial magnificence of his court on
scale never previously attempted by
King Of Prussia The support OF rel
atiyes forms a first charge on the
Kaiser's income. He has to provide
an annual allowance for his six sons,
and has to maintain separate court
for several more distant relatives.
Apart from his expenditure for pur-
poses Of royal display, the Kaiser de-
votes a large sum every year to the
encoura cement of art and Of the
drama. He is continually ordering
monuments to be erected at his own
expense, and buys pictures for presen-
tation to public galleries.
The Kaiser maintains the Royal
Opera House, the Royal Theater in
Berlin. and the Royal Theater at
Wiesbaden at his own expense. All
three theaters are conducted only par
TALLY as profit-making concerns.
With all these financial burdens the
Kaiser is unable to make both ends
meet on his income, and has been
obliged to borrow money from some
Of his wealthy subjects.

The German Emperor, with an an

States The Kaiser draws his income
first as King of Prussia; and, second'
as a private landowner.
His income as King OF PRUSSIA
amounts approximately to S4,ooo'ooo'
ner annum. The Emperor OF Russia
receives an annual allowance or ap-
proximately $5,000,000, and the Em-
neror Of Austria an annual allowance
of more than $4,OOO,000 Both these
monarchs receive additional allowances
for certain definite purposes, and pom

Emperor's possessions.
The Sultan of Turkey receives an
annual allowance of $lO,o00,0o0, and
the King Of Italy draws over $1,000
900 per annum; while the incomes OF
several monarchs of smaller States are
nearly as large as that Of the king
Of Prussia.
The amount Of 100000 granted
annually to the German Emperor III
his capacity as King of Prussia is not
taken from the national eXchequer, but
from revenues from State dominions
which were formerly the private prop
erty of the Prussian royal house. The
Crown lands were handed over to the
State, and in return the State pays a
fixed annual income to the monarch.
The Kaiser owns eighty-three land
ed estates, comprising total Of ZOO
coo acres. He is the greatest land
owner in Germany, and his posses
sions far exceed those of the three
landowners whose estates rank next

AFRICAN PYGMlES.
~o~~~~~~o~

Recent Investigations Of the region
have excited new interest in the mys-
terious small folk who inhabit the for
ests Of the island. Tiny denizens Of
the deep, still woods, sparing Of speech
and having either no form Of religious
worship, or very crude one, they are
Of very low order Of intelligence.
But they know how to make fire, to
poison their little murderous darts, and
they have language, although it is
simple, and contains but few words.
Although averaging only about four
feet in height they are nevertheless
not to be despised as foemen They
are strange, uncanny-looking creatures,
Of lighter color than the average ne
gro, and having rich hair which rolls
In tightly -curled spiral locks. This
gives it the appearance of growing in
tufts.
The pygmy race was known to the
ancients. Aristotle, Herodotus and
Homer wrote Of the dwarfs, and prob
ably many Of the legends of gnomes
and fairy folk grew out Of the misty
knowledge Of these small tribes. "a
kinde of little people which are no big
ger than Boyes Of twelve yeares olde,
but verie thicke, and live only upon
feshe which they kill In the woods
with Bowes and Dartes," wrote sew
enteenth century author.
The pygmies have little or no idea of
a Supreme Being. One tribe has been
found who In times Of danger prayed
to yer" One traveller records such
a supplication.
"Yer, If thou dost really exist, why
dost thou let US be slain? We ask thee
not for food, for we live on nuts and

mice. If thou hast made us, why dost
thou let us be trodden down?"
A stranger is fair game to a pygmy,
a legitimate mark for his little deadly
arrows. He sometimes traps the I'M
wary. Having tied cord to his ankle,
the pygmy conceals himself In the
bush. The other end of the string Is
tied to a bough of a tree which
stretches across the forest path. When
some one comes that way the pygmy
agitates the bough by jerking his
ankle. Every sound or motion of the
forest is of moment, and the new
conner stands still to look and listen.
Then the pygmy shoots him in the
back.
But" said one Of the little crea-
lures, when rebuked, "he was a stran-
ger. He had no business here" an
argument which reminds one of
Leech's picture and story In Punch:

Market for Stnmns

A new industry in the region at the
head of the lakes is the gathering Of
the tree stumps for use in the Maine
shipyards. A large number Of wooden
ships are built every year, and 1t has
been found that the most efficient cor
ner braces are those made from these
stumps, and hundreds are shipped east
every day. The roots Of the trees and
short section of the stump are used
in making the braces, and stumps
from trees about foot in diameter
are found to be the best. The stump is
taken from the ground and roughly
hewn into shape before being shipped.
After its receipt at the shipyards it
Is made into a perfect brace. The cost
of carload Of the stumps is close to
$500, and the freight charges run over
500 car.-Milwaukee Sentinel.

ALL PERvASivE ETHER.
Holds the Universe Together and Is the
Universe Itself.

universe Itself.
Certainly, though no sane person
doubts the existence Of the ether, we
are sorely troubled when we are al
most forced to give it properties in
compatible with one another. This you
will see when I enumerate all the
functions which this utterly mysteci-
Gus entity discharges. It conveys the
force Of gravitation. 1t has the power
. of vibrating from side to side, and
these vibrations, according as they are
fast or slow, have the most varied
results upon us. They all travel along
at the same speed which is that Of
light-1S6000 miles a second-but the
waves may oscillate from side to side
as they go, either two or three times
minute Tor Less, or even Il million
times a minute Tor more). When the
waves are very slow we call them
electric waves. When they are little
faster we call them Hertizan waves,
and telegraph across oceans with
them. When little faster we call
them Blondlot rays-a new discovery
self. A little faster, they are called
heat rays, or radiant heat A little
faster they are called red light, then
yellow, and so on to violet. Then they
become invisible again, as they were
before, and we call them ultra violet
light. Then, a little faster, we call
them Becquerel rays, and the fastest
we know yet we call Roentgen rays.
I have missed out more than 1
have named, and there are many gaps
yet to FILL but you will agree with me
that the entity whose vibrations cause
electricity, heat, light, and Roentgen
rays, besides conveying the force of
gravitation, must be a very remark
able substance. And. more than that,
it is supposed that all ponderable mat
ter is really made out of the ether.
By ponderable matter we mean matter
which is subject to gravitation and
therefore has weight. The ether itself.
which conveys the gravitation, is con-
ceived of as being without weight.
It comes to this, then, that in the
ether modern science recognizes the
most profound of all it's problems ex-
cept that of consciousness By crawl
tation it makes the universe one, by it's
movements it makes the universe
alive, and it is the stuff Of which the
material universe is made.-Harper's
Magazine.
