Europe to round out his education. He
began his diplomatic career in 1876 as
attaChc of the first class to the Bra
lillian legation in Washington, where

diplomats of the two Americas and on

SAMUEL GOMPERS.

Of over q million members, and the in
f1uence this organization possesses is
largely due to his efforts during the
many years he has been at its head.
He was born in England in 1850. but
most Of his life has been spent in this
country. His father was a cigarmaker
and at the age of ten BE went into the
shop and in time became a journey
man, working at the making of cigars
for twenty-six years. His fingers have
not lost their cunning and the president
of the Federation Of Labor can still
roll as good q cigar as any one need
wish to smoke. He was once asked
regarding the income he received as the
chief officer Of a great labor organiza-
ton and in reply stated that though
he had been president of the fedora
ton for more than twenty years he
had not grown rich on his salary dTr-
Ing that time. For the first : years
Ee received no salary. working at his
trade to support himself and doing his
work Of organizing unions at night or
on holidays. At the end Of that period
he gave up cigarmaking and devoted
his entire time to the federation at a
salary of $1,000 a year. Gradually the
salary was increased until it reached
S2,100. and it was only about two years
ago his compensation as head of the
order was made $1,000.

Bottle Making Machine

Fourteen years ago a bottle manu-,

France, was forced TO close his fac
tory by the continuous strikes and ex-
actions OF his employees. He then set
to work to invent q machine for the
manufacture of bottles, This machine
Is now in use in various parts of the
country. One-quarter of a million bot
ties are turned ont by it daily. A
single machine produces $4,000 bottles
in t~wenty-four hours. and any Il can

SLAUGHTER HOUSES

filth and foul CinditiOns prevail in
many of the slaughter-hOuses OF the
State according to the reports Of the
health officers that have been receiv-
ed by the State Board of Health.
These officers were instructed by the
State Board TO make inspection Of all
sraughtcrhouses in their cities and
towns and send in complete reports
on the actual conditions as they
found them. Blanks were furnished
for this purpose.
Most of the reports state that con-
ditions are fair. and some of them
are actually given as good, but there
are many that tell of frightful disre-
gard for all sanitary considerations.
For instance, the report on the slaugh
ter-house Of John J. Peters. of Con
%nersville, says that the building is di-
i~lapidated and very foul. both inside
and outside. There are large piles of
bones and offal reeking with vermin.
The floor. the report says, is covered
with mud, tobacco Juice and other
filth, giving off a bad odOr. The hog
yard outside is said to he IN bad con
dition. This is only a sample of the
kind of reports that have been re-
'ceived.
Tub Of Decayed Meat.
A tub of decayed meat was found in
the refrigerating-room Of the estab-
llshment of Routh & Co. at LOgans-
port, according to the report. and re-
fuse is dumped almost at the door Of
the place. Abe Stern. of L~ogansport,
so the report SAYS, has a slaughter
house in which there is an abundance
of decaved matter.
Il don't see how the place could be
.dirtier," is the way the health officer
of Boonville puts it in his report on
the slaughter-hOuse of Meyers Bros.
New Laws Are Needed.
DR.. ]. n. Hurry, secretary Of the
State Board of Health, says that all
the information contained in the re-
ports will be tabulat.d and placed be-
fore the people of the State in the
hope that the knowledge Of the
frightful conditions will arouse public
sentiment to such a point that legisla-
ton Will be demanded that will bring
about better conditions.
AS it now stands there is practical
ly no way for the State Board to
reach the offensive and dangerous
places. 1t is up to the local authori-
ties to handle the matter in each To-
cality, and in many cases the town or
city Councils will not do q thing.
Therefore, DR., Hurry says it is nee
essary that additional legislation be
passed that will nut it in the hands of
the State board to see that all such
bad conditions are overcome and
that the killing of animals for food
in this State be done in the proper
manner, with full regard to sanitary
rules. The State Board of Health will
ask the next Legislature for such
laws.

A BRAZILIAN STATESMAN.
DR.. Joaquin A. ynbuco, President OF
Pan-American Congress-.

It is customary for the president Of
a pa1-AmCrican congress to be a citi-
zen Of the republic in which it is being
held. In accordance with this prece-
dent the conference which met on July
% at Rio Janeiro chose a Brazilian for
its presiding officer in the person Of
DR.. Joaquin Aurelio Nabuco de Araujo,
ambassador of Brazil to the United
States. The choice was recognized as
an appropriate II and as compliment
tary to the United States, in view of his
being accredited to it as ambassador.
He is II of the ablest statesmen Of
Brazil and a diplomat of wide expert
ence and varied knowledge.
DR.. Nabuco is not only a statesman
and a diplomat, but also an author and
a scholar of unusual attainments. In
his writings he has expressed senti-
ments of special friendliness toward
the United States, and for this reason
his appointment as the first ambassador
of Brazil to this country was most
pleasing at Washington. When q young

TAXES DELINQUENT
FOR FIVE YEARS
Judge Hoffheimer of Cincin-

trail Life Company.
THEY MUST PAY S182,728
EX-GOVERNOR PATTISON'S CON-
PANY OWES MUCH MONEY!
NOTICE GIVEN THAT DECISION
WILL BE APPEALED.
Publishers PressI

Cincinnati, O.. Aug. I'm a vOlu-
minOus opinion, Judge II. NJ. HOff-
hCimer, Of the superior court, today
decided that the Union Central Life
Insurance Company Of this city, and
of which the late Governor John NJ.
PattisOn was for years president, is
indebted to Hamilton county $1H2.-
12%.8S for back taxes. The Judgment
is for delinquent taxes for the years
1897 to 1901 inclusive. There were
two classes of alleged omissions
money owed on policies at maturity,
and deposits in bank against which
checks had bcen issued, but afterward
cancelled. The court holds that
both represent taxable property. In
addition to the taxes due, there at
taches also a five per g penalty for
delinquent taxes.
Judge HOffheimer finds, briefly, that
the reserve fund must be held not to
be a legal bOnafde debt, owing, and
therefore not deductable from taxable
assets. He finds that the cash in
hand on taxing days was not affected
by the issue of checks against it on
those days, as they were never cash
ed, and that therefore the deposits
represented bonafide cash on hand
and are not deductable from the tax
able assets.
There is yet pending a similar suit
for a much larger sum. Both suits
were brought some months ago by the
present county treasurer, r. X.
Hynicka.
President Jesse r Clark, of the
company said this evening: We will
appeal the case. That is all | are
to say about it now"
