Some interesting Information re-.

output, which in the latter year reach.

fore. The sugar crop Of the Island
has remained practically constant at
this figure during the past three years
and apparently the natural limit of
production under existing agricultural
and economic conditions has been
reached. The area under cane in Java
amounts to about $4,000 acres. There
has been a very slight increase dur.
ing the past two or three years. The
greater part of the sugar land is rent
ed from the native Javanese, to whom
it reverts every alternate year, when
it goes into rice cultivation.

so as to insure the continuity of eff
cient service Under this plan the
postmaster general, as a member of
the cabinet, is chargeable with gen.
eral supervisory control and the de-
termination of questions of policy.
The commission also recommends
that the business of the department
be decentraliZed so. as to avoid the
congestio at the national capital,
which inpairs the efficiency and i'll
creases the cost of the service; that
the bookkeeping, auditing and &C
counting be simplified, unified and
centralized to secure greater accuracy,
more prompt methods and elimination
of duplication of work; and that the
practice of requiring needless detailed
reports from small postofices be dis
continued. The moderate application
of the nonaccounting system to small
offices will eliminate about 10000, or
nearly one-half, of all the postotfice
accounts from the present complex
report and bookkeeping system, or
would at least greatly simplify the
same.

Changed His Taste.

The Empress Eugene, whom Napo-

a ready wit, which, although it never
yelled sheer, often confused those on
whom it was directed. The late DR.. T.

the story Of a distinguished senator,
who, on being asked what he thought
Of the speech in which Napoleon had
declared his marriage intention to the
deputies, replied: ...
"a fine speech-excellent! But pre-
fer the sauce to the fish," meaning that
NapOleon's words were better than his
choosing of a bride.
Some weeks later, at dinner given
at the Tuileries, this senator was seat
ed next to the empress, who, observ-
ing that after having been helped to
the turbot he declined the sauce, said
to him, smiling roguishly:
':Monsieur, thought it was the sauce
you liked and not the fish,"
With rare presence of mind the sena.
tor hesitated but moment.

which 1 am now trying to make

Square Bullets,

In 171S an Englishman, James Puc-

seems to have been an attempt at a

one for square bullets, to be used
against the Turks, and the other for
round bullets, to be used against Chris.

Time and the Man.

Some one may suggest that if Crom-
well and Napoleon Bonaparte and Bis
marck and George Washington and
Abraham Lincoln had not appeared to
do the work they did others would
have arisen equally capable Of doing it,
though perhaps in different way. To
this suggestion there are two answers.
One is that it is pure conjecture. The
other answer is that history shows us
many occasions when the great man
was needed, and when the need of him
was acutely felt, and vet when he did
not appear. The greatness of some
men Is largely due to favoring condi-
tons. Other men, perhaps more bril-
liant, achieve less than their powers
seemed to promise because they were
not quite in key with their own age.

MORGAN SAT IN GALLERY
Senator Depew Praises Action Of New
York Banker, IL,

Washington, Feb. ! Senator De-
pew replied to recent charge made
in the senate by Senator Culberson of
Texas that during the recent panic
the secretary of the treasury favored
New York city in depositing public
money in national repositories.
The danger that was so great, he
said, was avoided by the wise action
of the secretary of the treasury, as
sisted by that phenomenal genius,
J. Pierpont Morgan, who, associating
with himself the bankers of New
York, provided the means by which
the assailed banks could be saved.''
At the time this utterance was
made Mr.. Morgan occupied seat in
the private gallery of senators and
was careful listener to all that was
said,

MERCHANDISE BY CARRIER

Bill Limits Packages to Eleven Pounds

Stereotvpino,

1t is claimed that stereotyping was
known in I'LL. 1t was practiced by
William Ged of Edinburgh about 1870.
Some Of Ged's plates are to be seen at
the Royal institution, London. A Mr..
James attempted to introduce Ged's
process in London in 1875, but failed.
Stereotype printing was used in Hol-
land during the last century, and a
Quarto Bible and Dutch folio Bible
were printed there. 1t was revived IN
London by Wilson in 1904. Since 1856
the durability of stereotypes has been
greatly increased by electrotyping them
with copper or silver.
