How Coils Are Made.


Many big things are needed to make

in q great trough, where workmen
knead up into dingy paste old card

gum tragacanth. They are great
brawny fellows, these men, naked to
the waist. wearing lea thern aprons.
In an adjoining room the paste is pour
ed into molds for the busts, the arms.

queer little hands that fell ceaselessly
from the iron monster. 1t was aw-
full, uncanny, hypnotiziug. Indeed. the
whole sight was grim and monstrous.
The low factory rooms We're misty with
steam and lit by strange. red glowing
fires. Always the great steel machines
pulsed and changed, and through the
mist sweaty giants of men went TO and

some new Herod had killed all the lit

NAPOLEON Trusted His Omens.

Napoleon always had an unlimited
trust in his presentiments. When the
news came to him that one of the Nile
river boats, the name of which was
L'Italie. had been wrecked and the
crew put to death he gave up all hope
of ever completing his conquest of
Italy by annexation. Napoleon believ-
ed that the stars exercised an occult
influence over human destinies. When
General Rapp, at one time his abide
camp. returned from the siege Of Dant-
sic he found the emperor gazing with
concentrated attention at the heavens.
"Look therer' shouted the emperor.
cit is my star! The fiery red one. al
most as large as the moon. 1t is be-
fore you now, and, ah. how brilliant.
1t has never abandoned me for sim
gle instant. l see it on all great oc-
casions It commands me to go for
ward; 1t is my sign of good fortune,
and where 1t leads 1 will follow"

PROSPEROUS FOR U. S. STEEL.
Net Earnings Last Year $156,624,273
Largest in Corporations History.

New York, March 1S.-The United
States Steel corporation, according to
it's annual report just issued, has pass
ed through the most prosperous year
in it's history. The gross receipts
were 1896, 756 1928, an increase of SILL
425, 100. After paying out nearly $3.50
100000 in wages to 1924 employees,
and deducting the cost of manufac-
ture, there was a total profit of $751;
S32 ,S35 for the year After interest
charges and other deductions, the net
earnings are reported to be s156, 624,-
273, the largest amount ever reported
by the corporation. In all, about
100000 was appropriated for i'm
provements, extensions, etc, an in
crease of more than S30,000,000 as
compared with 1905. One lump sum
of $50.000,000 is charged off for appro-
priations for construction and dis
charge of capital obligations. These
deductions brought the final surplus
down to S12,742,S60 which is smaller
by nearly s4,500,00O than in 1905.
The balance sheet discloses a total
surplus of undivided profits of S97,-
72O,717.

New York
SITUATION is IMPROVED.
RECENT LIQUIDATION HAS BEEN
OF MUCH BENEFIT.
Henry Ciews Says Many of the infiu
ences Depressing the Market
Have Been Discounted.

New York, March 1S-Henry Clews,
in his weekly financial letter, says:::
1.-The stock market situation has
been unquestionably improved by re-
cent liquidation. estimated at be
tween 81. 100. 100000 TO S2.0o0.000.0o0
in values. That such an enormous
shrinkage could take place within the
comparatively short period OF six
months without causing a single fail
ure of consequence. is emphatic proof
of general soundness in the situation.
These losses were often chiefly on pa
per. and fell with greatest heaviness
upon rich holders or large operators.
who were abundantly able TO meet
them. Fortunately the speculative
public suffered comparatively little.
1t is perhaps premature to say that liq-
uidation has entirely exhausted itself.
Yet many of the influences depressing
the market have been amply discount
ed. and some of them should soon be-
gin TO moderate if not disappear alto
gether. In all probability the worst
of the strain upon the money market
will soon be over. 1t is true that
bank reserves are uncomfortable low
many banks still being below the legal
limit Quite likely very stringent
rates may be witnessed between now
and the first of April: for Western
banks have been carrying large bal
ances here to take advantage of high
interest rates and these sums must
now be withdrawn to meet the excep-
tional interior demands which always
assert themselves at this season. Then
again some unusual negotiations have
to be financed at this time. and inter
est and dividend disbursements often
cause temporary stringency. Much
dependence has been placed upon gold
imports for relief in case of necessity,
since we are in a position to command
gold if we must: but our international
bankers are not over anxious TO take
gold from abroad against the will of
foreign holders, for the reason that
they must look TO London. Berlin. Par
is. etc. for the placing of forthcoming
security issues: and it would be poor
policy to intensity the prejudice which
already exists over there against some
of the American financial methods.

CROPS IN GOOD CONDITION.
European Fields Have Had Saving
Covering of Snow for Weeks.

Washington, Mar 1S-The European
crop report of the department of agri
culture which has just been issued
shows that throughout the greater part
of Europe the autumn-sown crops
have laid during February under Gov
ering of snow Widespread injury
is believed to have been thus averted,
the weather having been everywhere
more or less severe.
The department report says: In the
absence of definite official reports,
however, the present condition of the
crops in most countries is highly prob
lematical, and in any event, can be de-
termined satisfactorily only when op-
portunity shall be presented Of OBJ
serving how plants respond to the
quickening influences of spring.
''Unofficially it is reported that in
the United Kigdom the condition of
winter cereals is fairly satisfactory
their endurance rarely being put to a
severe test in this climate In France
and Germany it is probable the STU
alton is somewhat less favorable, for,
although the general prospects may
not have been seriously impaired. no
little anxiety has been felt lately over
the frequency of reports of winter-kill-
ing from unprotected localities. In
Austria Hungary and Balkan states
confidence is felt that ample snow pro-
lection has kept the crops secure. OF
the situation in European Russia, lit
tie definite care has been taken; over
the greater part of the country thf
crops are reported to have wintered
under snow. but later the reports indi-
cate deterioration in certain localities
not consistent with a very complete
protection.
official reports on crop conditions
will be awaited in many countries this

How to Enjoy Whist.

"How can one learn to enjoy the
game of whist?'-Aspirant.
Get yourself roped into a game as
partner to some one who helped Hoyle
write his book. The other two players
must also be experts. Start in pleas
antly to enliven the game with q few
well chosen anecdotes, now and then
making the wrong play. After your
partner has slapped your ears and
sworn at you and put the black curse
on you and all your ancestry and called
you fool a few times you will awake
to the real joy of the gentle and intel
lectual game. We have tried this sew
eral times. but not at frequent inter
walls, and we can guarantee its efficacy.

When John c. Calhoun became vice
president of the United States and con

announced that he had not the authori-

words spoken in debate. as he regard
ed each senator as an ambassador from

Randolph of Virginia took advantage
of Mr.. Calhoun's ruling TO abuse him
