OPPRESSION BY THE TIPPING
Yr EVIL.

Washington Post.
The whole matter of tipping is
wrong. The man who is compelled to
give is mulcted and the man who is
asked to receive is insulted. whether
he knows 1t or not. 1t may never be
possible to correct the evil of tipping
by legislative enactments. but it can
be curtailed by individual habit The
sentiment against 1t is growing. Peo-
pie will continue to make small pres
ents to faithful servants as long as
some men are born to serve and some
to be served, but the time is coming
when they will do so only through
choice and not from compulsion. The
porter, like the waiter and the barber
and the hackman, has been led to look
upon the tip as his right, and one to
play or fight for In the revulsion OF
feeling which has come over the pub
lie because of the growing demands
for tips on the part of the serving
classes, the porter must suffer with his
| fellows.

DURUM WHEAT GROWING.

Dallas (Texas) News.
Reports by the department of agri-
culture show a marked increase in the
production of durum or macaroni
wheat in the United States. Up to a
very few years ago there was compare
lively little of this wheat grown in
America, the principal reason being
that there were very few mills spe-
cialiy prepared for grinding 1t, and
consequently the home market was
not such as to induce its production
1t was first brought to this country
by the department of agriculture in
1893. or recent years, however, the
demand from abroad has been such as
to make the growing of durum profit
able for shipment to other countries.
In this connection 1t might be well to
recall the fact that the department of
agriculture several years ago gave out
the statement that Texas possessed q
vast area of land that was particularly
adapted to the production OF durum
wheat. and some few farmers began
to raise it. Owing to the lack of a
home market, together with the fact
that there were very few mills pre-
pared to grind it. its production in this
state has practically been abandoned
1t seems. although Colorado is grow
ing 1t successful. 1t is peculiarly
adapted to sections having scant rain

WORLD FAILS TO END;
PROPHET FLEES EGGS

NYACK, N. Inc end of the
world did not come Sunday, but the
end of the career of Lee ]. Spangler
as n prophet did.
In fact, Mr.. Spangler did not wait
for sunup of the day which he foretold
was to terminate all things mundane.
He disappeared some time before dawn
and thus escaped. not from the shower
of celestial fireworks which he had
predicted, but from torrent of eggs
which would not pass muster even in
these days of the cold storage product.
The eggs had been garnered by male
friends and relatives of the women
followers of the prophet.
Spangler's disappearance proved a
great disappointment TO the band of
faithful which had put on white robes
and prepared for the final day. Sew
eral of the ''faithful"-all women-don-
ned their white robes and went to the
morning train, in spite of the absence
of their chief. to meet the thousand
saints" from all parts of the world
who were to arrive to be translated
with the prophet. Never saint ar
rived.
A few of the faint-hearted women,
scoffed at by the villagers, dropped
out of the proceedings right here. 9th
ers. more determined. walked out to
Oak Hill cemetery, followed by a
jeering crowd. There they stood, shiv-
ering in the cold, waiting for the fire.
works to begin. Now and then they
essayed hymn or prayer, between
shivers, but the catcalls of the crowd
were not conducive to protracted re-
ligious fervor.
AS the hours passed and nothing
happened, the little band of devotees
melted away until only three or four
were left. Finally Superintendent Hal.
sted of the cemetery ordered them
away. and, with the last vestige of
their faith shattered, they returned to
the homes which they had expected to
quit forever. AS many of them had
to face angry husbands, the scene was
anything but the heavenly one they
had looked for
Another crowd of the faithful went
to South Mountain, which was to have
been the scene of the translation, but
the cold soon drove all to shelter.
