Where the Money Is.

More than 40 per cent. of the popu-
iation of the United States proper lies
in less than a dozen eastern states.
These states are known as manufac-
turing states. In the banks of one,
New York state, is contained nearly
40 per cent. of the money of the coun-
try. New York city alone has in its
banks 25 per cent. of the money in cir
culation. This has been made posi-
Bile by the conditions that enable the
large cities to draw trade from all sec.
tions of the country. In fact, great
cities must have support of a large
territory. But one of the great evils
and which Injuries the masses who are
residents of agricultural district is the
system of drawing support from local
towns and communities to the cities
This system takes from the rural dis
tricts the surplus wealth that should
be retained to build them up.

BUSINESS BULLETIN.
Few Complaints of Midsummer Dull
ness Are Heard-Retail Trade
Is Brisk.

New York.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Review of Trade says:
There is not the customary com
plant of midsummer dullness in gen
eral trade channels, while the demand
for seasonable fabrics is rapidly de-
pleting stocks that threatened to be
carried over. Brisk retail trade Is ac-
companied by more prompt collections
and many cities that were slow to re
spond to the better feeling now send
satisfactory reports. Jobbers and
wholesalers are receiving liberal or
ders for fall and winter merchandise,
and interior buyers are active in the
primary markets. Manufacturing re-
turns tell of large orders on hand and
very heavy production during the first
half of the year.
Lower prices for pig iron were due
to the larger output and more prompt
deliveries that reduced the premiums
paid for early shipments C0nsump-
tion has not appreciably diminished,
although a few Of the steel mills are
closed for repairs. Despite some fur
naces rendered idle for the same rea-
son, the total number in blast increas-
ed six during June.

Judge Young in common pleas court
Friday in the suit instituted by the
residents of Oakland against the

The Drinking Orchid.

One of the most remarkable plants
known to horticulturists is the drink.
ing orchid, which is found in South
America This orchid takes a drink
whenever it feels thirsty, by means of
a tube which it let's down into tina
water The tube when not in use is
coiled upon the top of the plant.
The formation of the orchid is diff
ferent from others of it's species, hav-
ing sharp leaves, lancehead-shaped,
growing round the root and radiating
from it, From the center of the plant
hangs the tube, about one-eighth of an
inch thick and one-fourth of an inch
wide. When touched it gradually
contracts and rolls itself up in a
spiral-like coil. AS a rule these or
chids are to be found growing directly
over the water, or where water has
been, and in the latter case it is al
most pathetic to see how the tube will
work its way over the ground to a
pool or river.

A TRAFFIC IN SLAVE GIRLS.
Japanese Women are Brought to Pa
cfic Coast Cities and Sold.

Washington, d. CA vigorous
protest has been received by the gov
ernment from the Japanese and Kor-
can Exclusion league, the headquar-
ters of which is at Seattle, against
what is asserted to be an organized
traffic in Japanese women, who, it is
alleged, are brought to this country in
large numbers for immoral purposes.
The protest declares that wholesale
Misrepresentation, perjury and fraud
are perpetrated on the part of immi-
grants, and perjury and collusion on
the part OF Japanese residents in this
country 1t is stated that the traffic
is regularly organized and that wo-
men are brought into the country and
sold into a system of slavery.
In connection with the traffic there
is said to exist a gang OF blackmailers
composed of Japanese who live on the
"hush money" collected from the i'm
porters of the Japanese slave girls. 1t
is asserted by the officers of the
league that hundreds of these women
are scattered among the cities of the
northwest and in the logging and min
ing camps.

Killed Seven Miners in an
Abandoned Pit.
ALL ARE ITALIANS.
The Accident Is Said to Have Been
Due to the Ignorance of the
UnIuCky WOrkmen.

Haz1eton, Pa.-Seven mine work
ers, all Italians, were killed in an
abandoned slope of the Lehigh and
Thursday by deadly white damp.
Three others are missing, but official
confirmation as to whether they are
in the mine cannot be secured.
Of the dead only the body of James
Lavanno, foreman, has been recov-
cred from the slope and there is no
hope that the other bodies can be Sc
cured soon because of the deadly
gases.
The accident is said to have been
due to the ignorance of the workmen
regarding the mine gases. Two of the
men had been sent into the slope to
measure water by Foreman Lavanno.
When the men failed to return to the
surface two other men were sent into
the mine to assist them. These also
failed to return and two more de-
scended. Finally Lavanno went into
the workings with Frank Bowda, an
experienced inside man. Bowda de-
tected the white damp and got out
safely, but Lavanno refused to leave
and periShed.
James Goldsmith, superintendent;
William Goldsmith, fire boss; Will
lam Davis, foreman; Charles Schaar,
fire boss, and Philip Harsleft, a pump
man, organized a rescuing party and
went into the slope, but they were
driven back. DR.. Farrar, of Auden-
ried, was finally lowered 160 feet into
the SloDe and succeeded in bringing
up the body of Lavanno, though he
was almost unconscious when he was
drawn up from the workings.

Liuinn for the Children.

Froebers sentiment Come, let us
live for our children" rests on sound
philosophic basis. To live for them is
to call out the noblest impulses Of
parenthood. And we cannot live for
them in the truset sense until we be-
come familiar with their needs. 1t is
in the endeavor to meet those needs
in the largest way possible that we
find our own characters richly recon-
pensed in strong and well-developed
parenthood. We practically become
what we are by what we have done or
left undone, what we are willing or
unwilling to do for our children. The
principle is universal, and should find
it's extension and application among
children at all times and in all places.
Has not the church lost ground In
failing to recognize the primary and
fundamental place of the child in So
ciety? If so, it is obvious how that
lost ground may be recovered.-Homi-
letic Review.

NOT A GOOD SYSTEM.
How ths Mail Order Business Injuries
the Agricultural Sections.

We must admit that Il 3 mail order
system is legitimate business If 1t is
carried on legitimately. 1t is a great
American privilege to carry on trade
in this way. Yet the principle from
an American standpoint or any other
standpoint that is consistent with
equal rights for all is entirely wrong.
Through the mail order system the
merchants suffer direct loss. To
them it is an unfair competition. 1t
diverts trade from established chan
nels. The loss of the merchants in the
local town means loss to the town
itself. to every resident of the town
and the surrounding community. 1t
is the business of the city or town
that makes it a live place or dead
one. Dependent upon the activity Of
a town is to great extent the value
of all farm lands in its trade territory.
Thus is the farmer affected by any
system that causes a deterioration in
his home town. Yet the farmers are
the main supporters of the catalogue
houses. They assist in feeding the
they little realize 1t. They are as vi
tally interested in the upbuilding OF
I their home town as the merchant. 1t
is for their benefit as we'll as for all in
the community that the town is there.
There is a more vital phase of the
question that few farmers realize.
That ) the evils resulting from the
vast capital that Is concentrated in
the large financial centers. 1t is this
surplus of money that makes it easy
to build up trusts and combinations.
These trusts affect the affairs and the
prosperity of the farmer He does not
stop to think that when he sends his
money to the distant concern that he
is doing just SO much to help along
the trusts.

A PLUNGE TO DEATH.
SIX PEOPLE IN NAPTHA LAUNCH
ARE DROWNED I'M CONE
WANGO RIVER.
Boat Was Swept Over Dam Near
Russell, Pa.-Three of the Party
Escaped.

jamestown, N. Y. - Six people
were drowned late Friday evening
near Russell, Pa, II miles south of
here. Nine people had taken a gaso.
line launch on the Conewango river,
which was very high owing to recent
rains. The boat was swept over a
dam and six people drowned. The

Mr.. and Mrs. John Best and daugh-
ter Violet, aged IS, of Warren, Pa.
Mrs. George Baker, Warren, Pa.
Mrs. Hilda Knox, Warren, Pa.
o. F. Butts, a travelling salesman
from Philadelphia.
A dispatch from Russell, Pa, says
that Mr. and Mrs. John Best had in
vited a company OF friends to take
supper with them at their cottage on
the Conewango river and had come
down to the Russell boat landing to
meet them. The visitors were in one
naphtha launch and Mr.. Best and his
party in another.
The boat containing the visitors be-
came lodged on rock pile short
distance above the dam and Mr.. Best
went to assist them, when the engine
in his launch broke and the boat con-
tanning nine persons drifted toward
the dam without an oar to stay them.
When the boat reached the dam it
was drifting broadside and as it went
over turned upside down. Six of. the
nine persons were caught under it.

Anticipatlnq Age.

Why do people allow themselves to
fret about getting old? There are
those who anticipate it and fear 1t as
if it were the most melancholy fate
that could befall one, and many OF
them have never been really young in
spirit.
And youth is more matter OF
spirit than it is of body. Enthusiasm,
interest in everything, warmth of
heart and breadth of feeling, are the
qualities that stand for youth.
