TN hOmbre de Su raZa llamado,
8 apodado, Jaleo, que sc dedica :
ba al contrabando. POGO des-
pues de la boda, Jaleo murio en-
un encuentro con los cara bine.
ros, y entonces Carmen volvi6
a reunirse con su tribu, estable-
cida en- los alrededores de Gil
braltar.
Al POGO tempo, ocurrio Ell en-
cuentro de Carmen con don 10
Sc; pero nj este encuentro tuvo
lugar en- Triana, hi Carmen era
cigarrera en- Sevilla. Las gita-
mas no SON amigas del trabajo
met0dico de las ciudades. Car
men sc dedicaba. cual todas sus
compaferas, a decir la buena
ventura y a hurtar alguna frio-
lera cuando Sc presentaba oca-
sion propicia.
Un dia, fue detenida en- Tari-
fa por timadora, y enviada a la
carcel. Ell sargento que man
daba la guardia, y que efecti-
vamente era navarro y sc la
maba Jose como el personaje de
Merimee, sc euamoro de ella V
la ayud6 a escapar, huyendo el
al mismo tempo de un castigo
SECURE.
Un aio estuvieron juntos los
dos enamorados, entire los gita-
nos; pero Ell amante de Carmen
era I'm hombre violento, de ca
racter brusco, que creia poder
tratar a la gitana como a una
esclava. Lo unico que con este
consiguio fue Ell aborrecimiento
de Carmen; esta hugo muy
pronto de su lado, y entonces el
exsargento, rabioso al verse des.
preciado por la mujer por quien
habia perdido su carrera, la ma
to. Los gitanos Sc apoderaron
de el y le dieron horrible muer-
te; Jose murio como I'm cobarde,
llorando de rabia y pidiendo
perd0n.
Esta es la verdadera historic
de Carmen. sin seguidillas en- la
venta, Sin riflas a navajo, sin
"toreador." La gitana habia te-
nido una hija de su matrimonio
con Jaleo, y de esta hija es Meta
por parte de madre la Nadushka
actual.
Pr0spero Merimee pinto las
cosas de muy distinta manera
hiZo odioso, Q POGO menos, el
personaje de Carmen, y en- cam.
bio, presento bajo un aspectc
simpatico V attractive la fgura
del asesino. Los gitanos 10 sa-
ben, y seg1n la Nadushka los
que pertenecen a la misma tri-
bu a que pertenecla la Indoma-
BILE, han jurado impedir por to
dos los medios posibles la re-
presentation de la famosa opera

The Committee on Ways and Means
has well equipped bureau of experts
erected for the purpose of ascertain
ing all that is worth knowing in regard
to questions of tariff and revenue.
For better accomplishing his purpose
of revising the tariff according to his
own notions, Chairman Payne has put
his son at the head of the bureau.
During the summer the members of
this body of experts sauntered through
Europe with the ostensible purpose of
collecting information upon the cost
Of production. wages, prices of raw
materials reasonable profits" and
the like. Yet with all this store Of
information in its possession the Com
mittee on Ways and Means goes about
the work of tariff revision in the same
old slipshod way, summoning wit
nesses who have strong personal in
terest, not merely in maintaining but
in frightening tariff abuses and in
EQUITIES.

blocks.

blocks.
THE success of the modern wood
block pavement is due to several
things. The wood is carefully select.
ed, both as to kind and quality, it is
cut accurately into rectangular
blocks, is put through seasoning pro-
cesses, and is preserved from decay,
with creosote. Enough of tbs oil is
injected to reduct to a minimum the
absorption of water and consequent
expansion and contraction of the
pavement. The blocks are then laid
with the grain vertical, over an ac-
curately surfaced cushion on a solid
foundation of cement-concrete. They
are also jointed, and, in the best
practice, the points are made water
proof. The result is pavement
which is smooth, quiet, resilient, san
itary, easily cleaned, and easily re-
paired. 1t wears evenly, and lasts
longer than one of untreated woods.

Socialist Vagaries.

In another column We print So
cialist vagary from B. w. Benton,
in which he decries the effort of hui
mainly to provide for it's progeny,
insists that because some men fail to
properly safeguard their families all
direction, as soon as some better way
can be devised. But Mr.. Benton fails
to suggest the better method, and
in his entire article falls into the
error common to all advocates CT
socialisnl--in refusing to take into
consideration human nature as it
is.
But, admitting for arguments sake
that all necessity on the part of the
human race to have a care for the
future was eliminated, what would
become of the race? The average
individual has an inherent dislike
for hard work, mental or physical,
and the development of this planet
demands hard work and lots of it.
Remove the incentive for work and
three generations would see us re-
lapsed into barbarism. Necessity,
love, and ambition are the spurs that
have brought on the present state
of civilization, and our socialist
friends would kill them off to
avoid what must ever eXist-labor.
Mr.. Benton pictures the happy time
when every person will receive the
full value of his product" When a
few hours work day will suffice, SO
that more time may be had for
study and pastime. But, he fails to
give details. Who is to measure the
full value" of the product? The
term, value, infers barter, and it is
important that we decide who, the
seller or buyer, is going to place the
value, or will there be market quo
tations as under the present COM
petitive system?
To be sure, he says we will all be
willing workers then, SO it is to be
presumed the socialists have some
scheme up their sleeves for the elmin-
alton Of the drones-kill them off or
convert them, by making the hours
of work so short, and the work it
self so light, that there will really
be little If anything done. The abb
original Inhabitants of Grays Har-
Dor led that sort of an existence, and
presumably, were a happy people,
but man was placed on earth to
conquer, subdue and develop it, and
it is not to be questioned that the
Creator knew best when He planted
the desire for progress in the human
breast, together with the love of Off
spring and ambition for the purpose.
Our socialist friends are not dis
satisfied with political conditions
they are at war with creation.

Nearly all the big trusts have been
organized since the antitrust law was
enacted. The decision in the case OF
the Tobacco Trust was in many re-
spects the most far-reaching decision
that any industrial combination has
encountered; but, undeterred by it,
q combination of automobile manu-
facturers is reported to be in process
of formation, and Chicago dispatch
announces that the fertilizer interests
OF the Armour and Swift packing
companies are about to be merged.
The combines and their lawyers show
Very little apprehension.

Geo. Thielen, wife and little boy
concluded their visit of three weeks
with his brother George and with many
friends in this. vicinity, and returned
last evening to his home near Crown
Point, Indiana, where he is engaged in
farming with dairying as the main fac

years ago, but Mr.. Thielen says Their
visits will be more numerous in the
future.

mining claims, and in recent letter to

that there is quite a mining boom now
on there as result of the discovery,
that rich paying ore is being taken out

reports bad situation in business mat

and with no hope of immediate relief,
many of the men leaving the towns and
taking to the road in search of employ
ment. He also says that a large pro-
portion of the farms of that state are idle
and tenantless, but that he has suffic-
lent faith in their value if properly
farmed that he contemplates removing
to the East sometime and engage in
farming.
We very much regret to learn that
Frank Huber and family are preparing
to remove from Cresco to Cedar Rap
ids, where Mr.. Huber has bought out
the Iowa Furniture Company, a con-
cern doing an immense business in the
manufacturing and jobbing of high
grade furniture and iron bedsteads,
with large established territory and
enjoying steady increase in business
from year to year. Mr.. Huber is dis
posing of his property interests here
and will move to Cedar Rapids as soon
as this is accomplished. He has al
ready disposed of his residence to o.
w. Clark. Mr.. Huber's removal will
be distinct loss to the business in
terests of this town. but we are pleased
to know that he has been fortunate in
getting into business which promises
SO well in financial gain to him. While
in Cresco he has always been looked
upon and has proved himself to be q
thorough business man whose WORD
was as good as his bond, and the bust
ness interests of Cedar Rapids viii
find in him one who will be a valuable
acquisition to their number and who is
endowed with the push and vigor tt
further increase the business and fame
of their city.

Goes To Waterloo.

A. H. Caward, the well known COM
mercial traveller who has made this
city for many years for the Standard
/ Oil Go. and whose home is at Cresco,
and who by the way is the father of
Harry Caward, of this city, has re-
signed his position to take effect at
once and will assume the manag gement
of the Hawkeye Oil Co., of Waterloo.
Mr.. Caward has been connected with
the Standard Oil Co. for "a years.
The Hawkeye Oil, the company he
assume management of is Incorporated
and will be largely owned and controlled
by Iowa people. 1t will be operated
on the cooperative plan, and all the
dealers and employees may, if they
choose, share in the profits.
The company has connected itself
with one of the best independent re-
fineries in Pennsylvania, and will aim
to carry a full line of the very highest
grades of Pennsylvania refined and lubri-
eating oils. 1t will also handle Ohio
and Kansas goods to meet competition,
but will have no object or desire to
urge these low grades upon the trade,
as they are not compelled to handle
only just what the trade wants.
In a letter to the trade Mr.. Caward
says:
II thank you heartily for the past
favors you have so kindly given me,
and trust I may still have your con-
fidence and patronage. l shall greatly
appreciate anything you can do for us.
We shall be ready with full line of
goods in about two weeks and l will
call upon you personally at least part
of the time, and can assure you of a
square deal all of the time. If you are
in the market for anything before I
call upon you, will thank you for your
mail orders, and assure you of good
goods and prompt attention. Try and
be a booster. CHARLES City Daily
Press.
Mr.. Caward left yesterday for
Waterloo to assume his new duties,
and while the new arrangement will
doubtless eventually result in the re-
moval of the family from Cresco, no
immediate change is anticipated.
Mr.. Caward wishes it understood
that the Hawkeye Oil Co. is not a
branch of the Standard Oil Co. as some
seem to think, but is as indicated by
the Press, owned and controlled by
Iowa people. He says that some time
next week consignment from the
Hawkeye Co. will be received in Cresco
and that it is intended that Cresco will
eventually become one of the distribut-
ing centers of the company.
