SHORTAGE IN LABOR.

Already there have landed in the
United States for the ten months of
this year more than 100000 immi-
grants, breaking all previous records,
New York having received rs per
cent Of this great thrush of aliens
One would hardly expect in the face
of this tremendous tide OF incoming
humanity that there could be any
labor famine, but the unsatisfied
demand for labor in the South and
in the West amounts to, just that.
Thus the country is absorbing more
than a million immigrants a year,
and yet nearly everywhere they are
clamoring for hands. particularly In
the agricultural sections.
In addition to this. industrial, cen
tiers must soon, at least temporarily,
feel drain from the return of immi-
grants to their former homes There
is more or less of this return tide
every year, but this year 1t has been
very large and is still going on. or
ficials calculate thatit will BIO enor-
nous. Statistics show that in Au-
gust alone 22,246 returned home,
and since the financial panic out
going steamers have been crowded
with them. For a while this must
retard the restoration of
the good times" that received a
black eye from "frelzied finance" so
recently. u-.

The Christmas Tree.


Each year there is a. scare that
Christmas trees are gettlnk scarcer
and scarcer and the price goes up.
The harvest Of trees must necessarily
come from greater distance as the
years go by At the present time the
supply comes mainly from the north
ern part Of Michigan, but the forests
are being rapidly denuded Z and Il is
necessary to so still farther north.
AS this line recedes the price of the
trees is bound to go lstill higher.
The growing scarcity of trees has
led to the invention OF an artificial
Christmas tree, which will answer all
the purposes of the natural article
and at the same time be everlasting.
When it has fulfilled its joyous mis-
sion 1t may he folded up and put
away to do duty next season. The
imitation tree consists of base, a
stem and plurality OF superposed
foldable frame sections, which re-
semble umbrella frames. Three Of
these groups are employed, the lower
one being the largest so as to give
the tapering effect to the Christmas
tree.

including the landlords of country
tayerons and the proprietors of met
ropolitan skyscraper hostelries, as
sembled this morning for the TWEEN
ty-first annual meeting Of the New
York State Hotel Mems association,
The delegates, however, are not con-
fined to this state. Every common
wealth of the union is represented,
by delegates or proxy, and the dis
cusslon centers around the threat
ened prohibition wave which is
sweeping over the country. While
all the hotel men agree that they be-
lieve in law and order, they are
ayerse to the prohibition movement.
Another subject which is being dis
cussed is that of securing an inter
state railway hotel law, in connec-
ton with the railroads, which will
make it possible for all railroads to
provide wine with meals when de-
in a prohibition state or city.
