Llamas' Great Endurance.

Writing to 'The Boston Transcript
Of scenes in Bolivia-the Hermit Re-
public-the Rev. DR.. Francis e. Clark
of Christian Endeavor fame. tells OF
the llamas. the principal beasts of bur-
den. Of the country. They are a little
larger than donkey" says DR.. Clark,
.sand are almost all shades-buf, black,
white, reddish and mixed colors. They
partake of the natures of the camel
and the sheep for their wool is good
for clothing and their backs are easily
bent to the, burden. They will plod
along at the rate Of fifteen miles a
day for weeks, with a load of hundred
pounds tied to their backs, never ask
ing for drink of water, and content
to board themselves on the grass and
moss and leaves they can find by the
roadside. Their only vice is an un-
pleasant habit of splitting an evil
smelling saliva when provoked or
frightened, but even this habit they in
dulge in seldom, and, on the whole,
are among the most gentle, attractive
and beautiful creatures have ever
seen. They are almost as useful as
the reindeer to the Laps, for the flesh
is good for food, the woof for clothing,
the hide for footwear, and the bones
for loom sand spindles. llama can be
bought for IS in gold, and is well
worth the price.

Chicago, June with the Univer-
sity Of Michigan eliminated from the
contest, the annual track and field
games OF the Western Intercollegiate
Association at Marshall Field this af-
ternoon looked more open than for
many years, with the smaller colleges
expected to cut in on points In many
events, and with the winning team to
have but small margin of points in
Its favor. Illinois, Chicago and Wis
consin are the favorite in the order
named, but the strong teams from
sGrinnell iand Missouri and individual
athletes like Markley, of Mama, were
looked upon as sure point winners and
the chances of one of the smaller col
leges winning the meet were greater
than ever before. The tracks at Mar
shall Field were in splendid condition
but cold northeast wind is blowing
and rain threatened. One hundred and
eighty seven athletes, representing six

Stage. on a Higher Plane.

(Atlantlc)
The great need of the American
drama, which<,is the ancient and en-
during need of the English speaking
peoples as a whole, is theater in
which the conditions shall not be pri-
marily commercial. There is danger
no doubt, in cultivatins the drama in
conventicles. This is a cathedral art.
More than any other 1t draws its In
spiration from the life of nation, OF
century, and lives in it's universal
heart. Yet the great public we have
always with US. We can not escape
it, and those Of us who are worthy it
claims in the end as its own. Yet II
the victory Is won by the many it is
the few who lead. In the phrase Of
Matthew Arnold, it Is essential that
the drama be organized-and organ-
tied on its highest plane.

PRAISES OUR NAVY

Retiring Rear Admiral coghIan Says
It Is Finest Organization in World
But Advocates Improvement, Be.
Iieving That Peace in Perpetuity Is
Not ReasonabIy Probable.
New York, June Rear Admiral
Joseph Bullock Coghlan, U. S. N, who
will retire today from active service,
and from the post Of commander of the
New York navy yard, declares that if
he had his life to go over again, he
would re-enter the United States navy;
that it is the finest organization of Its
kind in the world, and that it holds out
greater inducemenf to young meu Of
this country than dpes the navy of any
other nation. Coghlan thinks that our
navy should be made bigger and
stronger.
{ peace in perpetuity, about which
SO much is being said just now, may be
possible, but it is not reasonably prob
able. Be prepared to whip or be will
ing to get whipped, is the position in
which every great nation stands to-
day. Let us keep peace while we have
it. The-only way to do this is TO keep
building battleships and adding to the
numerical strength Of the navy
Coghlan thinks that the United
States ought to have the most power
full navy af1oat. Coghlan's retirement
removes from the service one Of the
most picturesque figures in the navy.
He was commander Of the Raleigh, in
the battle Of Manila Bay, and his sub
sequent recitation at banquet, of the
satirical, "Hoch der Kaiser" became
an international episode.

gross receipts were ,4o,13S,292, with
expenses of $731s,973. The profit on

This is a decrease in the net profit

in income, however, but in expenses,
for the latter increased by $1,2S3, 900.
The main line of the Burlington thru
Iowa showed net profit nearly as

men, at the ports of France, is now
complete everywhere in France, Alge-

only affects French shipping, and for,
eign vessels at French ports OF call

place, many Industries will be com
PEELED to shut down and workmen in

thrown into enforced idleness. The
commercial interests are denouncing

means at its disposal it is impossible
to increase the pensions Of mariners to
the extent demanded by the laborers.

TARIFF CONCESSIONS
Forty Article. Of American Make to
Enter Germany Under New Trade
Arrangement - Proclamation Is Is.


sued.
Washington, June 1.-The president
today issued proclamation announc-
ing the conclusion of a commercial ar
rangement between the United States
and Germany, under the third section
of the Dingley act. The proclamation
is brief, simply announcing the list OF
articles upon which the United States
grants reduced duties to GermanN ana
the undertaking of the German gov
ernment to make reciprocity conees-
sions. A letter from Secretary Cortel-
you, dated April 9, was made public
in which the secretary says the nego-
tiations of the proposed commercials
agreement would promote friendly re-
lations and would otherwise be of ben
eft to this country.
The state department made public an
analytical statement which points to
the new arrangement, from which 1t
appears that about forty articles of
American production, embracing most
of the articles of trade during the past
year, are to be subject to minimum
tariff rates upon admission to Ger
many. Regret is expressed that It has
not been possible, owing to the att1-
tude of the German government, to Sc
cure minimum tariff rates for all AM
erican products. 1t is said this con-
cessfon can only be secured by sub
stantial tariff concessions by the I'm
tied States in the shape of a recipro-
city treaty subject to the approval OF
