Austrians Compelled to>Vote.

Austria Las passed law by which
its citizens are not only given a vote,
but are compelled under penalty to use
It. Some 10000 are to be called up and
fined for neglecting their duty. This Is
a revival of the exquisite simplicity OF
the Athenian legislators, who literally
roped in the citizens with a REDEEMED
rope. The man who had red mark
on him was fined Some such simple
device might be Of use in our own be-
loved country, where so many of us &c
not take the trouble to exercise our be
loved privileges. If the man who re

~ 21OOO feet in the Kara Koran
mountains. in 1903 she reached an altl-
4ude of 1884 feet, and last year she
canned two nights at height OF over
q 600 feet. In comparison with such
stupendous feats, Miss Birds ascent

All records OF the United States Steel
corporation in the manufacture OF steel
were shown to have been broken from
the company's report for the quarter
ending June 80 1907. and was made
public after meeting of the board Of
directors. The report shows that the
company's total net earnings for the
spring quarter were S45. sos. 705. a high
water mark record for any single
quarter in the company's history. The
record breaking total is an increase Of
80. 37S,672 over the corresponding
quarter last year.
The amount of untitled business on
hand on. June 30 last was 1908. S7s
tons. an increase OF 1914. $50 tons over
last year. The directors said the a
mount of untitled business on the COM
pany's books was barometric indica-
ton OF steel making business. The
statement also shows that SIS. 500. DOC
was set aside after all charges, in
terest. and dividends were paid for
new plants. additional property, and
construction. This Is an increase OF
as. 500. 900 a compared with the sppro'
priation for the same purpose for the
quarter ended June 80, 1906.
The total Of the company's quarterly
earnings OF $3.50 was reached
after deducting all expenses incident
to operation, including those for or
binary repairs and maintenance Of
plants. employees benefit funds. and
interest on bonds and fixed charges OF
subsidiary companies. These figures
exceed the highest earnings for any
previous quarter by 80, 1853. TAI. The
balance Of surplus for the quarter,
after all charges. is SO, 497. $50, "a de-
crease Of sl,744, 026 as compared &c
the same quarter last year. The de-
crease in the balance of surplus is caus
ed by the extraordinary outlay from
the earnings for new construction and
improvements.
