UNITED STATES SURPRISES ALL
OTHER NATIONS.
Products Valued at $780, oo, 600
Shipped to Europe and Other
Countries During the
Past Year.

Washington. United States is
now the largest exporting nation in
the world. OF the S1,700, 100000 of
products sent from American ports
during the year, $1,000, 100000 con-
sisted of natural products and $780,
100000 of manufactured products.
In the latter classification the
United States shows the most re-
markable increase. According to the
report of the bureau of statistics just
issued this country now supplies Is
per cent. of the total of the value of
all kinds of manufactures now en-
tering the worlds international COM
merce. The report states:
Ten years ago, in the fiscal year
1896, they amounted to but $25S, 000,-
900; in 1886, but 100000, and in
1876 $105,000,000. The share which
manufactures formed of the total ex-
ports was, in 1906, AZ per cent; in
1896, but 30 per cent; in 1886, but %
per cent, and in 1876, 20 per cent.
Thus the exports of manufactures in
1906 are three and one-half times as
great as a decade ago, and the share
which manufactures form of the total
exports about one-third greater than
at that time.
This is the first time that exports
of manufactures have crossed or even
Appropriated the $700,O00,000 line.
Even in the fiscal year 1906, which
is only six months away, the total ex-
ports of manufactures were but
$685., 100000; in 1905, $612 900, 900; in
1904, $523, 900, 900; in 1908, $46S, 000,-
900; in 1902, s454 100000; in 1901,
s466, 900, 900; in 1900, s4S4 900, 900; in
1899, $3S0,00O,000, and in 1898, $685.
100000. Thus the exports of manu-
features in the calendar year 1906 are
practically twice as great in value
as in the fiscal year 1898, having thus
doubled in eight years.

features exported from the United

DIES IN ANoTHER's COFFIN.
Strange Fate 6efaIIs Man Who Goes
to Get casket for Dead Neighbor.

Chardon, O.-Arthur Carrier, who
was on his way home from Hearts
Grove with a coffin which was to be
used at the funeral of a neighbor,
was found dead inside the coffin when
his team drove into the yard at his
home. Some think he was murdered,
although no marks or evidences of his
having been injured We're found about
his body.
Carrier started out the other night
to get the coffin. 1t is only ten-mile
drive and he was expected back be-
fore midnight When he did not re-
turn it was learned by telephone thr (
he had started on the trip back and
fearing he had met with harm some
of his neighbors started to search for
him.
While the searching party was out
early in the morning Carriers team
walked into the yard at his home and
headed for the barn. Carrier was not
on the seat An examination of the
rig disclosed Carriers body lying in
the coffin. He was cold in death.
1t is thought while seated in the
wagon he was seized with heart dis.
ease and tumbled back into the coffin.
Some of his friends believe he was
murdered and the authorities are in

Midway Is Fine

Midway Is Fine
In all of the eleven years
history of the carnival there
has never been a midway on
the grounds that could compare
with the present one. There is
not an attraction on the
grounds that would offend any,
one, and everyone of them
gives value received for the
money paid at the door.
Everything was in full blast
last night, and the majority of
the shows did a good business.
The first performance of the
Parker trained animal circus,
which is by far the largest at
traction on the midway, was
given last night, and proved
the biggest kind of a success.
The acts are all given in a
large steel-barred arena, in
which the lions and other ami
mails are put through a num-
Der of the most difficult acts.
Nero, an unusually fine speci-
men of mountain lion, rides at
full speed round the arena on
the back Of a horse, and there
are scores of other acts that
are we'll worth seeing.
Another midway feature that
is bound to make the biggest
kind of a hit is the Tyrolean
Alps, the "beauty show" of the
carnival. The Tyrolean Alps
is a mechanical and electrical
attraction, the secret of which
is carefully guarded by the
management. The show opens
dark, showing first a sunrise in
the ALPS. Gradually the rays
of the sun are seen shooting up
over the Matterhorn and as
dawn breaks mountain begins
to take shape; later the build
ings of a Swiss village become
visible, and finally as the sun
breaks over the horizon a beau
tiful scene greets the eye.
There is real water that turns
a real mill wheel, ard people
are seen crossing a bridge in
the foreground going to their
daily toll, Finally a band play
ing a lively air, and a circus
parade is seen approaching in
the distance. The people line
up on either side of the street
and watch the parade pass.
After the circus parade, a bal
loon ascension is given at the
show grounds, and then, as is
usual on circus day, a storm
gathers. The exhibition ends
with the Alpine glow on the
Matterhorn, and the singing OF
the Gloria by a cathedral choir
