Marked Distress in Shipbuilding n
Iron Industries in Britain.

Britain to-day has more money thar
work. Redundant capital lies idle or
at the unproductivc interest of one per
cent. Redundant labor is die at the
season when employment Should be at
its best. The distress is most marked
in the s%hipbuilding and iron industries.

Mr.. T~hackcray, president of the
North of England Iron and Steel

tina he could not remember trad so
bad for 10 years, except in 1886. The
MerSey docks are full of laid-up YES
sells. and there are thousands of sailors
without ships. while SOC ships officers
are walking the streets instead of the
normal 80 or GO out of employment.
From 5000 to 1000 dockhands are
without work.
The Glasgow Distress Committee es-
Inmates that next winter 5000 heads
of families will require providing for,
but funds are exhausted. Eight ship
yards are without work. ~Shipbuilders
trace the slump to the abnormal
cost Of production and the shrinkage in
freights.
In Manchester the engineering and
shipbuilding trades are in Il very bad
state. The voorhees, number 1000.
The Boilermakers' Trade Union reports
about 10000, or 20 per cent, unem-
ployed, mainly dve to the sh~ipbuilding
trade depression, intensified by the en-
cheering dispute on the northeast
coast of England. The prospect for the
immediate future is very bad. as mem

for Physician's Young Wife. .
The clever wife of a rising young
physician, who had been much poster
ed by peddlers and house-to-house
agents and canvassers, RECENTLY took
an unusual but efficient method to rid
herself Of an especially intrusive and
persistent specimen.
Her husband was out, and she had
taken her sewing into his office to be
near the telephone. The peddler, when
she went to the door, pushed by her
into the room. declined to leave when
she ordered him to do so, and with a
manner at once cringing and insolent.
urged her to purchase articles for
which she had no use. She was an
noyed, and at last a little alarmed.
Suddenly she remembered the cabi-
net in which Tommy" was kept. Tom
my was the family nickname for a
skeleton sometimes used by the doctor;
an admirably mounted specimen, and
so skillfully adjusted that on opening
the cabinet doors-which were released
by pulling a cord-it swung forward
automatically for more convenient in
spection. Quietly securing the end of
the cord, she addressed the peddler:
60 at once-this instant! If you
don't, I shall call for help"
He still fingered, cajoling and Insist
ing.
Tommy called the lady. loudly.

She pulled the string. Tommy. bony,
grisly and terrifying, sprang suddenly
to view, and the peddler, with n hair
raising yell, dropped his basket and
fed. At the same moment the doctor,
who had returned unnoticed by an
other door, entered. and Joined with
gusto in his wife's triumphant mirth.
But as their laughter abated, they re-
allied that the discounted mans wares
must be restored. He could be seen
lingering uneasily outside. and the doc

young man. threw q long coat loosely
over his shoulders. picked up the bas-
ket and stepped out. Twilight was

If the apples harvested in the COM

this year were converted into pies there
would be G,25o, eco. 1000 of them, which,
placed side by side, would make a path

including G,125, O0O, 900 pounds of flour,

lar American dessert. For t~ransporta-
ton Ia, 1876 cars Of standard capacity
would be required
twenty-five million barrels, or e.
10000 bushels, is the estimated yield
this season, according to reports re-
ceived by Harry J. Nicely, secretary Of
the national apple show of Spokane,
from, $4,000 growers operating in the
various belts in the union The returns
show that while droughts, excessive
rains or pests wrought havoc in many
districts in the middle western, eastern
and several southern States, the entire
crop is fully as large as in 1897, and
it is better distributed. Prices also
are higher than last year.

PAPER MADE OF CORN STALKS
Government Chemists Find a Substi-

The chemists of the Department of Ag-

problem of cheaper paper that Will dis

government chemists predict when the
manufacture of the new kind ct paper is
started on a large scale it will be at least
so per cent cheaper than the print paper
now made from wood pulp. 1t also will
put an end to the danger of a puFp fam

alarming proportions. Predisal extrava-

1t was 7 O'Clock, and George G"ewold
had not yet come home from Salisbury.
Very few words had passed between him
and his wife since she fell f~ainting at
his feet last night. He had summoned her
maid. and between them they had brought
her back to Consciousness, and half car
ricd her to her room. She would give no
explanation of her ~fainting fit when the
maid had left the room, and she was lying
on her bed. white and calm, with her hls-
band sitting by her side. She told him
that she was tired, and that a sudden
giddincss had come upon her. That was
all he could get from her.
Not once did her eyes close in sleep
ali through that night. or in the morning
houra before breakfast. She made an ex-
cusa for breakfasting in her dressing
room, n large, airy apartment. half bou-
doir. She was told hat Mr.. Crossword
had gone out early to see some horses vt
Salisbury, and would not be back till dim
ncr time. She had been writing letters
in the morning. Two of these she now
placed on the mantclpiccc in her bed

other to Pamela.
She had "A bag packed. just large enough
to contain the essentials of the toilet. She
put on "A neat little black bonnet and I

had given orders that the carriage should
call for her before going to the station
and she was Mt the door ready to step into
it when it came around. She told the
groom that she was to be put down at Ivy
Cottage. and was driven off unseen by the
household.

hour with the two old ladies. While he

station, and that he was to call Tor her
on his return. He did not even ask Tor
her orders upon this point. taking them
for granted.
