AMERICAN PEARLS.

American round pearls are scarce | wholesale merchants say, because high water in western rivers has held back | fishing fully six weeks. Prices are said to be fully 25 per cent higher for fine qualities than they were year ago.
 An even more disquieting factor In the trade than the swollen rivers has been introduced by Dame Fashion. whose whim has upset the button mar ket to such an extent that mussel shells are sold at one-third the price that they brought two years ago. The fresh water pearl industry has been built up as sort of annex to the sale of the shells to the button works. so that a decline in the latter traffic causes misgivings all around.
 A recognized authority in the trade said: "The mussel or clam fishing season, which usually starts in April or early May, will not begin this year before the middle of the present month. AS there was a strong de- mand for the pearls found last year supplies on hand are small and the de- lay in getting more has sent up the prices.
 "The most alarming feature of the situation is that the shells have de- clined from $20 ton, the price two years ago, to $6.50, so that pearl fish ing will not attract so many men as formerly and fewer pearls will be found. Usually it does not pay the American fishermen to search for gems unless the shells bring in a fair rev enue. A man may pile up shells worth S100 or more before he finds single pearl of any value as a gem.
 About 2,00O men were engaged last year in the industry along the Wabash and Ohio rivers, with a few on the Mississippi. The market value of the output was estimated above $2,000,00O The men made 8 or 8 day from the sale of shells. but at the present prices would not get much more than 30 cents day.
 Reports I have received from west ern agents are to the effect that there will not be more than half as many fishermen in the coming season as there were last year. The pearl but ton business is so dull that some fac tories have shut down."
 This dealer recently returned from Europe where he sold to Spanish mo- bleman a necklace of thirtyIthree pearls, averaging in size about 40 grains, the largest being 100 grains. The foreign demand for American pearls, he says, is increasing each year. A 100 grain white pearl, found last year in Illinois, brought $S,000, this being the best catch of the sea son.
 Oriental round white pearls suitable for necklaces have advanced even more than American pearls, he says. the price now being on a basis so high that 50 grain gem brings as much as S25,0OO

 Some of Mir Roosevelt's critics quite admire his part in the preliminaries of peace betwen Russia and Japan. They seem to think it is new, and agreeable departure for him. Those who have better opinion of what he has done ill the past find this service of his quite in the normal line of his developing ac- tivity. He is for peace right along, everywhere, not theoretically alone but practically. He is not only preaching it, but doing something to bring to about. But he recognizes facts, real izes that was is not yet obsolete, and that it becomes a nation to be pre- pared for it.

Once the preliminaries to the formal conference of Japanese and Russian plenipotentiaries are settled this coun- try will have little official relation with the negotiations, says a writer in dis cussing the outlook for holding a con- ference here. According to custom it is incumbent on this country to play the part of host and provide place for the meetings of the delegates but there is an abundance of such places in Washington so that obligations pre- sents few difficulties. It has been sug- gested by the president that, if Wash ington in August proves uncomfortably warm the plenipotentiaries may easily adjourn to some cooler city for time to return to Washington later in the season. The president has even said that if this course is determined upon he will place two naval vessels at the disposal of the conferees to take them to some place like Newport or Bar Harbor presumably the dispatch boats the Dolphin and the Sylph. There is no doubt, however, that the plenipoten- tiaries will succeed in effecting peace convention, and the president is cer7 tain that they will, that it will be sign ed in Washington and will go down in history as the treaty of Washington, being the first convention of great in ternational importance ever signed in the capital of the United States.

LAssoED A BIG RATTLEsNAKE

W. E. Edwards. Shoal Creek farm. CT. came to Joplin with a four and a half foot black diamond rattlesnake in frail wooden box covered with win dow screening and treated the vicious reptile in spirit of friendliness that caused more cautious people to shud- der.
 ''I caught the snake yesterday after- noon by lassoing it." said Edwards My sister-in-law was walking along the path when the snake struck at her. Ii was coiled up in the grass alongside the path. It set its fangs into her dress and fell back on the ground. This attracted her attention. and she called to me to come and kill it She was carrying a little child in her arms at the time
 ''I saw what it was and had my sister get out of the way. as it was preparing to strike her again. and then I got little rope and made a lasso. which dropped over its head. It was easy after that. and just set my foot on it's neck. reached down with a pair of pincers and pulled out its fangs. Don't you want to buy it?" he added to the stream of questions fired lIy each interrogator.
 Edwards appeared to have no fear of the snake. Failing to find purchaser he sought to effect a bargain by giv- ing the crowd a better view of his snakeship. He deliverately lifted one of the boards from the top of the box. exposing his hand and wrist to tine lightning stroke of the snake. had the reptile chosen. Evidently his faith in the toOthpulling was perfect But ss the i'd was raised the snake twisted around into position to strike. forming the coil that has meant the death of hundreds of people. the crowd. not hay ing the same faith drew back in sp- prehension of sn attack But the snake made no effort to leave the box.

Congressman Charles B. Landis

Congressman Charles B. Landis of Indiana, who has in charge the work of the committee authorized by con-
 gress to ascertain where and how re- forms can be inaugurated in the mat ter of the public printing, was in
 Washington this week to lay out the
 work. The reconsideration by the president of his determination to call
 an extra session has changed the plans of this committee somewhat, and
 instead of sitting during the summer
 months, the somewhat disagreeable task will be deferred until autumn.
 While he believes in proper economy In public expenditures, Mr Landis does not eountenance official perniciousness.
 He believes there are many ways in
 which, under the law. there is waste full extravaganza, and as chairman of the house committee on printing he has discovered where much money can be saved, money that has been thrown away simply because congress used no discretion in its mandatory instructions to the public printer. Mir Landis came prominently before the public eye during the last congress when the bill appropriating money for the various executive departments was under consideration. He detected and called attention to the number of horses and carriages used. by bureau chiefs and othe- favorite subordinate officials. but supported and maintained at public expense under the guise of horses and wagons" As a result of that expose, many Of these were cut of. cabinet officers alone being pro- vided with horse and carriage. Now if Mrs Bureau Chief goes shopping in an official wagcnette the name of the department to which it belongs may he found printed upon 1t somewhere in a more or less conspicuous spot.
 We are not 10 proDe any printing of flee scandal.r said MT Landls. discuss- ing the work of his committee. 50 far as we are aware. there Is no print ing scandal i1 the sense of somebody having been zrastsEg or I1isappropri- atinz money. That there are abuses in public printing all must admit. Documents that have limited value are published in wholesale lots. and this that large quantities of printef matter are stored away in mUsty vaults and sOlI ultimately as waste paper. It is OFT purpose to investigate this and other abuses. and. if possible. ;,5 save the people of their money. but we are not sleuths sent out to hound some evil doer into the penitentiary--
