The Automoblle in ThIs country.

The Automobile In This Country
Whether the best of American au
tomobiles are yet as good as the
best of their imported rivals is q
question of SO much dellcacy that We
would not venture to answer II one
way or the other, preferring the
safer position that, while in some
ways the foreign machines are SUI.
home manufacture have the advan-
tage, and that the purchaser must
take many things into consideration
before reaching conclusion as to
what he wants for the money he has
to spend.
There Is no doubt at all, however,
that the imports of automobiles are
decreasing rapidly In value, though
the number of machines brought In
during the last three years has re-
mained about the same. on the
other hand, the value of the cars
made In the United States Is ad-
vancing with a rush almost equal
to that of the cars themselves, on a
good road with no constables In
sight, for in Ave years. II has risen
from $16,000,000 to over ..105.-
100000 Last year, too, our ex-
ports exceeded our imports and the
latter amounted to only one-thlrty-
NTH of our product It Is evident,
therefore, that we have learned 10
make automobiles that people will
buy in large numbers, and the indi-
cations are that. even though our
manufacturers may never succeed in
surprising the best work OF the
foreign makers, they will supply
practically the whole American mar
ket and become serious competitors
In the foreign field.
Here there is a rapidly growing
demand for machines of n compara-
lively low price, and that Is said to
be almost lacking abroad. For the
European Is not ready 10 live up to
his income as the American, and
the result Is that the class which
here is becoming the largest pur-
chasers of automobiles there usual
ly prefers the Joy of seeing Its saw
ings increase In safe investments.
Despite all assurances to the con-
trary, It takes no little money TO
run even a cheap automobile, and
the purchase OF one OF them Is only
the beginning OF expenditure

DRAWING MEN. TO
ATTEND CHURCH

A novel scheme for attracting men
to religious services on Sunday has
been devised by Rev. Sydney Good
man of Atlantic City, whose example
pastors In general are not likely to
follow. Mr.. Goodman has establish.
ed what he calls the mems Church"
and besides preaching a sermon. he
provides an entertainment. consist
Ing of moving pictures, stereopticon
Views and singing by professionals.
During the entire proceedings-even
the sermon-the men present are
permitted to smoke cigars and pipes
being furnished by the preacher.
Naturally the meetings are so well
attended that larger hall may soon
be necessary. Mr.. Goodman is the
assistant pastor of regular church,
and he has had to undergo criticism
for what sayors too much, In tho
opinion of many of his Pensioners,
of Salvation Army ways. But some
church members who at
first strongly opposed Mr. Good
mans methods are said now to have
been won over to them.--Lesie's

The following description of the
Sultan is taken from an article pub
lished In the London Chronicle. 1t
was written by an Orientalist for
whose intimacy with Turkish affairs
gained by long residence in Con-
stantlnople the London Chronicle
vouches:
Rarely has young sovereign been
In a more desperate and apparently
hopeless position. than Abl-ul-Hamid
occupied In the third year of his
reign, 1876. His armies had been
utterly beaten in great war. His
people had no confidence in their
country, or their future. or their
sultan. Prophecies were widely cur
rent about 1S7S-S2 Identifying him
as the last sultan OF Turkey and the
consummator of It's ruin. The treas
ury was almost bankrupt. He him
self had, and still has, dislike and
fear of ships, which paralysed his
feet during the war that had just
ended, and has ever since left 1t to
rot in idleness, until there is at the
present day probably not a Turkish
ship of war that could venture to
cross the Aegean sea In the calmest
day of summer.
The sultan alone in Turkey did
no despair. He alone saw how the
power of the sultans could be re-
stored. And 2s years after he SEEM
ed to be near the end of disastrous
and short reign he Is still on the
throne, absolute autocrat to a degree
that hardly even the greatest of the
sultans before him attained. in close
communication with the remotest
corners OF the Mohammedan world
from the east OF Asia to the west
of Africa, respected and powerful IN
Moslem lands where the name of no
former sultan was known or needed,
courted by at least one leading pow
in Europe and by the great Ameri-
can republic.
The last fact is, perhaps, the most
remarkable OF all In this strange
history. The diplomatists OF Amerl-
ca, so strong and self-confident in
their dealings with the greatest OF
European powers, 50 accustomed TO
say to them all, "Thls is our will and
Intention" have for many years been
the humblest and most subservient
OF all the Christian powers in their
attitude to Turkey, aiming always
at initiating the German policy and
being on the friendly side OF the
Turks, but forgetting that Germany
has that to give which America has
not, and that America has interests
TO protect in Turkey OF kind which
Germany has not.
The sultan had the genius or the
good fortune to divine almost from
the beginning OF his reign what only |
a few even yet dlmly comprehend
the power OF reaction and resistance |
which Asia can oppose against the |
the power OF the entire
world. and placing
himself at the head OF this power

Elk to DO Police Duty.

Vernon Bailey OF the United States
Bureau OF Biological survey declares
wolves and coyotes cost the farmers
and stock raisers of this country sew
eral million dollars a year, and In
some of the northern states threaten
the determination OF deer. Wolves,
IL appears, are especially numerous
and destructive in Wyoming. al
though many are there killed and
their scalps presented for bounty.
II has been learned IN California,
however, that the presentation OF
coyote scalps is not conclusive evi-
dence that the animals from which
they were taken lived. moved and
had their being within the .connnes
of the state.
An interesting statement made by
Mr.. Bailey is that elk are great nat
ural enemies of wolves. and he
dwells upon this as OF great prac-
tical significance" for It's bearing
upon the protection OF stock from
the ravenous beasts. He quotes with
unqualified approval these words of
George w. Russ OF Eureka Springs,
Ark:
"An elk is the natural enemy OF
dogs and wolves. We suffered great
losses to our flock until we learned
this fact. Since then we have had
no losses from this cause. A few
elk In thousand acre pasture will
absolutely protect the fioeks therein.
Our own dogs are so well aware of
the danger in our elk park that they
cannot be induced to enter It."
So Mr.. Bailey suggests "an impor-
tant use for this noblest OF our game
animals" meaning the breeding OF
elk and DEMONSTRATING them to 10
police duty on pastures and ranges.
And he says elk breeding Is an as
sured success and promises profit
able returns.
Apparently anxious to save him
self from the charge of nature fax !
ing. and also TO show familiarity :
with the highest authorities on the
life history of the coyote and elk,
the same official remarks that it
seems doubtful If the enmity of the
elk for coyotes extends outside or
pastures, as he had found coyote
tracks common among elk herds In
the Wind River mountains. Ana
he quotes from one of President
Roosevelt's books statement cred
tied to can American hunter" who
said he had seen coyote walking
among a band of elk in
The Yellowstone Park.
Whatever the truth OF the matter
may be regarding the enmity OF elk
Tor wolves and coyotes, the sugges-
ion regarding the breeding OF elk
may be worth needing by California

A fire attacked the Odd Fellows
hall here yesterday noon and did $4,000
worth of damage. Fire was the pri-
| mary cause of the damage, but smoke
| and water were more potent secondary
ones. The fire was hard one to get
at and the firemen were forced to flood
| the building with water. The water
destroyed the fixtures, including new
piano belonging to the Odd Fellows,
and also large amount of damage
to the stock of second hand mer-
chant who occupies the first floor OF
| the building. The insurance in all
amounts to sufficient to cover all
damage to the building, but will fall
short $1,1O0 on the fixtures. 1t is sup
posed that the fire started from a
stove situated on the interior Of the
second floor. A meeting of the Odd
Fellows was held yesterday evening
and the fire was banked after the
gathering. 1t is supposed that this
caused an explosion. The building is
worth $4,000, and it is thought for
tunate that the whole structure was
not destroyed. An installation was
planned for this evening in the Odd
Fellows hall. 1t will be held in an
| other hall here.
