JACKIES ARE MOST FRUGAL
Sailors Said to Save More Money
Than Any Other Class Despite
Tradition Of ProtI.qacy.

observation-disclosures Jack ashore"
may have acquired the reputation of
being the model spendthrift, the latest
statistics of the navy department
show him to be a thrifty person when
1t comes down to year in and year
out steadiness.
Jacks pay, though not large, is de
cidedly regular, and then again Jack
has long periods when he has no op-
portunity to spend at all. If, when
he does get a bit of shore leave, he
manages to make things hum some.
What faster than the average man in
the street and often rolls back to the
anchorage in a state of financial de-
preston equal to the treasury of a
South American republic, he, ten to
one, has not spent it all. for, accord
ing to the allotment system in vogue
in the navy today, the bluejacket has
the privilege Of alloting any portion
OF his pay to whomsOever he may
designate.
The pamphlet recently published by
Assistant Paymaster Jere Maupin, U.
5. n, shows % per cent. of the sail
ors are putting something by. The
allotment privilege only applies to
the men serving on the ships. The
sailors on shore duty are presumed
to take care of such matters for
themselves.
1t has been ascertained that en-.
ployes of corporations generally save
less than 20 per cent. of their salaries.
IN fact the savings are probably near
er ten per cent. on an average.

TOMB AND BODIES ARE SOLD
Vault Wherein Lay the Owners Dead
Disposed of at a Forced Pub.
5. lie Sale;

Greensburg. Pa.-The spectacle Of
a vault wherein lay the owners dead
being disposed of at a forced sale
was witnessed the other day at the
old Unity cemetery. The sale was
-necessitated by the insistence of
creditors of the owner, once a
wealthy land owner at Latrobe.
Then it was decided hat no legal
course was open for the auctioneer
but to cry the sale in the plot where
lie scores of pioneer dead and the
bidding was started at $3.50. Others
raised it to $500. Then from the
crowd emerged an old woman, whose
only daughter and grandson lay in
the vault. In a broken voice she bid
$605. A few more bids raising the
figure S. were offered by her and
each was met by the other bidders.
With an agonized glance at the re-
ceptacle of her dead she turned and
eft the cemetery.
The vault was finally sold to ]. J.
Peppary for s745, but notice was
promptly given on the part Of the
owner that the sale would be con.
tested.

misunderstanding American dollar
with the American man behind it.
That" said Charles DENLY, recently
consul general at Shanghai, who is in
Washington en- route to a new post
OF duty at Vienna, should be the
motto for the conquest of the Chinese
trade field. To achieve success we
must cease to regard China merely as
a market and begin to consider it a
region for permanent investment. We
cannot hope to sell our goods by
standing at the doors of our ware
houses. We must get closer to the
Chinese people. They are unusually
friendly toward Americans as a result
OF our generous policy in Chinese at.
fairs during recent years. The gov.
eminent is likewise cordial, and in.
vestment of American capital is de.
sired.
The time must come when our fl.
nanciers and business men to promote
American trade in China will regard
per cent. in that empire as
per cent. here. 1t, is futile to
nope for orders for American mate

"One feature of the Chinese indus.
trial situation has escaped attention
here. 1t is that the empire is at the
threshold of what, l believe, will be an
era of remarkable manufacturing &C.
tivity. The American Tobacco com.
pany, which operates in the east as
the British-American Tobacco CON-
pany, manufactures, from American
tobacco largely, vast quantities of eli.
garettes. The cheap labor available
at their factories in Shanghai, Tan.
kow and Mukden, together with their
employment of the most modern ma
chinery, enables them to prove the
wisdom of production close to the
consumer. 1t is my opinion that the
manufacture of ready-to-wear clothing
in large quantities would be a most
profitable pursuit. The Standard Oil
company has made vast profits by get.
ting close to the consumer. Its oil
boats deliver petroleum to the most
remote sections of the empire without
recourse to the middleman."

The Newer Way.

Many ideas in regard to women
have entirely changed, and among
the better and wiser changes is that
old thought hat the III who
were given to good works must needs
be dowdy. 1t is %undeniable that
good" women used to wear dowdi-
ness as a sort of hall mark of vir-
tue. AS a matter of fact, dowdiness
is merely a mark of bad taste and a
sign of some lack in the mind. Wom-
en- are no longer lacking in the wis
dom that chooses pretty rather than
ugly clothing, and those who do not
make the best of their appearance are
losing a golden opportunity of giving
pleasure.

GUN FIGHTERS
ARM FRACTURED
George L. Jordan Winged by
Bill MomSon in Shooting
SCrape at Mazuma.

The details of a shooting scrape occur
ring at Mazuma, Nevada mining camp,
and in which one or two characters well
known in the intermcuntain mining region
We're concerned, were received in Salt
Lake yesterday. In the gun play, of
which Van D.. Spaulding was the innocent
cause. George L. Jordan received three
leaden balls in his left arm, and Bill Nor
with its accompanying bar and gambling
room, was the unlucky target of a poorly
aimed shot fired by Jordan.
From what has been learned the shoot
ing arose over a check drawn by Van
Spaulding foe SIS and cashed by Morrison.
Spaulding was a stranger to Morrison.
and the latter after casning the check
made some remark in the presence of Jor-
dan regarding the validity of the check
that aroused the latter's ire Jordan had
known Spaulding for years. both in the
mining fields of Colorado and Nevada.
and knowing his worth. took a somewhat
emphatic exception to Morrison's remark.
IT finally ended in Jordan pulling his re-
volver, which is said to have three
notcheS on its hilt, and firing point blank
at Morrison The bullet missed its aim.
and then for the first time the trusty gun
failed and there was nothing but reSound-
ing clicks of the hammer as il failed to
explode the cartridges. This gave Nor
rison his chance. and reaching for his
gun beneath the bar. he returned the fire
Morrison fired four Shots three of which
were effective, entering Jordan's left arm
and causing wounds that will probably
leave the arm paralyzed for the remainder
of the wounded mans life.
1t is said that the shooting was a SEQUEL
to long drawn out poker game and that
the participants in the row were hardly
responsible for their actions. Jordan is
in no serious danger of his life.
