COMMERCE AND WAR.

Mir. Carnegie thinks that the way to win wars is through starvation. If the United States were attacked, he would close its ports. But national sentiment is superior to hunger. Wheat reached prohibitive price in England during the NapoleOnic wars, but that country grimly kept on fighting. At the same time French valor was not abated by the lack of sugar and coffee. The north drank coffee substitutes during the civil war. while the south endured many privations in adherence to it's cause. Moreover, sources of supply have increased. The United States last year furnished only one7fourth of the wheat bought by Great Britain. the rest coming from Argentina, Canada. Australia. Russia and India. Moreover in the United Kingdom nearly 1.100, 900 acres bear wheat. The greatest monop- oly of the United States in produc
 tion Is cotton. That was said to have been used in an effort to obtain French recognition of the confederacy. At that time Lancashire mills suffered terribly from lack of cotton. yet the Lancashire operatives were persistent wellwish
 CTS of the union.

of tomb. The stone floors were painted black and the walls dark gray.
 The window panes were opaque, so that no ray of sun ever penetrated within the cells and no trace of color from without could be caught by the prisoners. The iron bedstead was turned up by day and chained against the wall, and only a little stool. also fastened in it's place, allowed tse prisoners an occasional rest from the incessant stride backward and for ward across the floor of the cell
 This pacing back and forth was in fact the only diversion permitted to the prisoners No books were given to them except the Bible, which they had already learned from cover to cover in the fortress of Saints Peter and Paul: no work for their hands. no color for their eyes. no sound for their ears.

GRIM RUSSIAN PRISON.
A Living Death the Lot of the ln- mates of the SehluesseIburs.

In the middle of the River Neva. where it flows out of Lake Ladoga, there lies a tiny island surrounded on three sides by the turbulent waters of the river and hemmed in upon the fourth by the cold and stormy lake. Upon this island stands a very an cient fortress enclosed by high walls more than twenty feet in thickness. This is the fortress of Schlusselburg
 Day and night sentinels, relieved every two hours. pace around the top of these walls, keeping a vigilant lookout on every hand. No one from within the fortress, not even the sol diers or gendarmes. is allowed to communicate with the people who dwell upon the banks of the river. If the unwary fisherman chances to drift in his boat too near the walls of the fortress, says McClure's. he is greeted by a shout of a sentinel, aim ing his rifle:
 Away, Or I shoot"
 Not even the Dead sea in the des- erts of Asia is so utterly isolated and cut off from the living world as is this fortress forty miles from St. Pe- tersburg
 They are very ancient. the high walls of the fortress. In many places they are cracked from old age, and in the cracks little trees have taken root. They look sullen and ominous- ly silent. as if they hid dark and gruesome secrets And in truth in the whole world there are no other walls that have witnessed so many tragedies as those of the fortress of Schlusselburg.
 The regime and the aspect of the prison were carefully thought out and planned. being. as the ministers visiting the Schlusselburg repeatedly declared to the prisoners. intended to demonstrate to them that it was destined to be their grave The cells were constructed in such manner as constantly to remind the prisoners

AN INDUSTRIAL INQUIRY.

President Low of the National Civic Federation, has appointed three com mittees. whose work will deal with the prevention of industrial accidents. and with a system of compensation. in place of the present employers liabil- ity law. The committees will consider severally the prevention of mining ac- cidents, wage e-earners' insurance. and pensions for public employees. Under these heads will he prepared reports upon. the need of uniform legislation as to benefits and pensions, as to old age retirement in the civil service. mu- nicipal. state. and federal. It is be- lieved that progress may be slow com pared with what has been accomplish ed abroad, but the necessity of better ing the present system is candidly rec ognized.

A. calendar opportunity. We did not sell quite all our Christmas art calen- dars. The season for buying calen- dars will soon be past. To clear up the few we have left we have marked the 40c and 5Oc ones down to 25c and the 25c ones to l5c- There are a few handpainted which we offer at 75c and s125 They were s1.5O and s2.o0 re- spectively. The soc ones reduced to 25c include several designs of famous Harrison Fisher calendars. All the above offerings are dainty and pretty and particularly acceptable as New Year gifts. We did not realize there would be so many calls for our ad- vertising calendars. We have exhaust ed our supply and ordered more. which we hope to receive in ten days. This is entirely distinct from the calendar opportunity offered above Hinckley's Postoffice Store, 136 N. Center.

MORE TURBINE STEAMERS.
Their Number Has Advanced From
 One to Sixty Four in Seven Years.

No turbine steamr has been towet
 into port and no sailing schedule has been upset by failure thus far
 This tribute to turbines was given al the recent meeting of mechanical engi-
 neers at Liverpool. There are now six ty-four tubine steamers in the mer-
 chant service of 6OS.2OO horsepower;
 this is up to December. 1908. In 1901
 there was but one such steamer of $500 horsepower.
 In discussing the advance in marine
 engineering the speakers declared that
 "very little is known about propellers
 The improved results with the great
 Cunarders. which at first were in a
 sense failures in regard to required speed, have been got by varying the
 propellers. This reminds one of the
 steamships Iris and Mercury in 1878,
 when huge improvements were made
 by changing the propellers.
 Boilers have not changed much ex- cept that they are built of larger plates with fewer rivets. The largest plate rolled measures 42 feet by 9 feet 6 inches by IF inch thick. It weighs nearly II tons and is in the boiler of a Liverpool tugboat. the Knight Errant The lower pressure possible with turbines has meant a saving of 12C ! tons in boilers alone in the great Gun

 Marine work is backward in the
 moving and firing of coal. Liquid fuel of course gets over all such difficulties
 and suggests that if coal could be bunkered in the form of fine Gust and , burned in that form it might be pos sible to arrange some mechanical
 means of conveying it to the furnace Liquid fuel is practically equal to double its weight of coal, yet occupies less space. There are no dirty fires , with liquid fuel; ship is better kept to speed Fewer hands are needed. fue
