AMERICA LEADS IN MOTORS.
French Manufacturers outstripped IL
the Race Already.

Paris.-"Just as American agricul.
tural machines do practically all the
work in the fields throughout Europe,
SO it will certainly be in a couple of
years with American automobiles on
all the roads in Europe France point
ed out the automobile way, America
will reap all the profit by walking in
it."
So laments the trade journal of the
French motor car makers. 1t asserts
that careful scrutiny of the machines
touring the great auto routes in
Europe this summer proves that the
United States is rapidly making for
supremacy in the construction of auto
mobiles; supremacy which France
occupied only year or two ego and
from which it seemed she never was
to be dethroned.
Foreign travellers now bring over
their own machines and these are
often American. even while their own
ers are not. The, writer says. almost
tearfully, that most of the safest.
strongest and most nearly silent motor
cars he met in various countries were
American made.

THE facts show that when English.

efforts of Americans to establish pedi-

but ignorance. The lineages Of the

The persistence of lines of distinction
can be discerned right through the So

cratic class. they are in reality defining

court is the sentence pronounced on
Guy Higgins. a 15-year-old boy, by
Justice of the Peace d. F. Blewett.
The boy attended a baseball game and

sticks at the visiting players. After
the game was over and the visiting
team had boarded street car he
threw a stone through the window OF
the car at one of the men.
Mayor T. L. Doyle and his little
daughter were on the car and the mis-.
sile just missed them and struck one
of the players on the arm, cutting it.
The mayor jumped off and arrested
him.
The mayor appeared against the boy
on charge of disorderly conduct.
Justice Blewett found him guilty, but
said he would suspend sentence II the
boys father would administer a good,
old-fashioned spanking.
The boy thought he would earn
money enough to pay his fine, but his

late Sir Bernard Burke, compiler of
"Burke's Peerage." and other works

Armorial bearings in plenty are to
appear in the book, the title page of
which will bear the coat of arms of
Washington.
One of the specimen pages is de-
voted to the history of the Roosevelt
family. and its coat of arms. The
earliest recorded ancestor of the pres

welt, emigrated from Zealand in Hol.
land to the New Netherlands in 1919.
The progency of this man is shown to
have figured prominently in the mill
tary and civil history of New York,
eliminating in the particularly strenu-
GUS and brilliant career of Theodore.
The facts for the Roosevelt history
were furnished to Mr. Burke by Mrs.
Roosevelt after considerable corre-
spondence.

Big Increase Of Product in 1905 Shown
by Government Report.

Washington.-The geological survey
has made public statistics on the pro-
iduction of coal in the United States in
1905. From these it appears that both
in quantity and value the production
surpassed all previous records in this
country. The output amounted to
49,, 2,919,3 ,341 short tons, which had a
value at the mines OF $476,756. 1853.
Compared with 1904 the output in
1905 exhibits an increase of Al, 1,102, ,943
short tons. or Ill per cent in quantity
and of 32.3S5.942. or 7.3 per cent. in
value.
OF the total production of 1905. 69.-
339.152 long tons, equivalent to H.
69s,s50 short tons. were Pennsylvania
anthracite, with value at the mines
of $141, $4,000. The total production
OF bituminous coal and Ignite was
315,259,4 ,491 short tons. valued at 1884,
S17.963. The production of anthracite
coal in Pennsylvania for 1905 was A.
020,662 long tons, or 4,503.151 short
tons, more than that Of 1904, while
the increase In the production of BIZ
luminous coal and Ignite was $685.
1872 short tons.
A portion o. these increases in both
anthracite and bituminous productions
was due to the efforts of operating
companies to provide a supply of fuel
in anticipation of a strike in April,
1906.
The total production of this country
last year was nearly so per cent.
larger than that of Great Britain,
which until 1899 was the leading coal
producing country of the world.
The total value of the stone pro
duced in the United States during
1905, according to a forthcoming re-
port, was 500, 1857 The correspond.
ing value for 1904 was 5s.765.715.

DIR. Williams Pink Pills cured Mrs.

and healthy there can be no debility.
The relation between the blood and
nervous system is such that the pills
have very decided action upon tho
nerves and they have cured niany severe
nervous disorders, such as partial pa-
rplysis, locomotor ataxia and st. Vitus'
dance, that have not yielded to ordinary
treatment. Their double action, on the
blood and ON the nerves, makes them an

time. The list is not complete yet, for many
teachers marry and take their own time about
reporting the fact.
The ravages of Dan Cupid in the ranks of
the teachers has revived the interesting question
of whether woman marry while she Is a

say that woman teacher cannot marry. The

that the bylaw is null and void. The board has
