BEEFSTEAK.
As II Is Served In tho Financial Dis
trict of New York.

In addition to the mad struggle
for money there is another problem
that besets the habitues of the
financial district. 1t is the homely
and prosaic operation of feeding
the inner man.
Doubtless it takes away some OF
the splendid radiance that is sup
posed to surround the captains OF
industry and capital" but it is none
the less true that the wealthiest
banker in the street must have his
Cham and" three times a day, even
as the humble messenger boy or the
patient elevator man.
The only difference is that the
"ham and" of the money baron"
becomes pate de foie gras or dia-
mond back ~terrapin. However, that
great American staple beefsteak
appears in a multitude of forms
down where the golden flood is
being taken at its tide. Perhaps if
one were to award a prize to the
most popular luncheon item in the
entire Wall street district he would
pin the classic blue ribbon on Mr..
B. Steak.
Beefsteak, however, is, as the
words of the famous poem says,
Numerous as the leaves hat strew
the brooks of Vallombrosa." For
instance, there is the beefsteak of
the messenger boy, and there is the
beefsteak of the money king" IT'S
indeed a far cry from one to t'other.
Discussing beefsteak as it ap-
pears, say in the neighborhood of
Broad street and Exchange place,
one finds sixty-seven different
places within a radius of two blocks
where the staple is served. In each
cafe n may find, conservatively
stated, n dozen varieties. The
grand total, therefore, is S04 differ
ent grades, styles, manner or pre-
vious condition Of servitude in the
beefsteak family.
The price, too, may well be stated
in verse. 1t is
Variable as the shade
BY the quivering aspen made
To be explicit, there is the steak
carefully removed from the base of
a venerable oxen's hams, which (the
ox) has outlived its usefulness as a
beast of burden and which is served
to the appreciative messenger boy
for 80 cents, one dime" There
is also the cut that carries with it
"French fried and gravy" and
which goes like hot cakes at 25
cents a throw. This is affected by
stenographers and clerks. Then
for chief clerks and others there is
the old friend at so cents a portion
and on up to 81.
Finally there comes what might
be termed the king of its kind,
found only in the highest grade of
cafe. Here the piece de resistance
comes three inches thick and beau
tifully Drowned, decorated with
mushrooms, sprinkled with water
cress and parsley, surrounded by
picked walnuts, juicy, delicious and
luscious, served on a plank along
side a bottle of wine and a check
for SO. This, of course, does not
include bread and butter.
Yea, there is steak to be had at
10 cents just as there is steak to be
had at Sc, but, oh, what a differ
ence! Yet all are Appreciated

COMFORT IN PLENTY
AT STATE FAIR
Every Convenience VIII Be Provided
for Visitors Free of Charge.

Every Convenience VIII Be Provided
for Visitors Free of Charge.
A great deal of the attention of the
State Fair management has been claimed
during the last several months in max
ing provision for the comfort of the tens
of thousands of visitors who will throng
the grounds at Nashville during the week
of September 2O-25.
The plumbing and the cOnveniences
for both ladies and gentlemen have been
very materially improved. These changes
have included the installation of extern
sive toilet rooms in accessible locations,
rest rooms for the ladies' and a check
room where babies may be left In charge
of trained nurse.
Then besides this, more than five hun
bred new benches have been made and
placed in shady spots all over the
grounds. OF course the emergency hos
pital will be there, tOo-a place where
doctors and white-aproned nurses will
attend to all ailments-anything from
pain in the sawdust" to a fractured
limb
The branch telephone office will be in
stalled again and stations will be placed
in every building and in every section of
the grounds, Branch telegraph stations
for both the Postal and the Western
Union will be located in the grand stand.
The Nashville Fire Department will
have a chemical engine and full crew
of men and horses.
The water supply will be even better
provided for than it was last year, when
the concrete fountains along the main
boulevard supplied the thousands with
ice cold water in abundance and with
out cost.
In short, while visitors are learning
facts that will mean money to them
or are indulging in the wholesome recrea-
ton which the fair affords, they will
1t the same time be made COMFORT
lABLE.

One day a Burmese messenger
brought me a note While he was
waiting for the reply I observed an
object something like a boys pop
gun suspended around his waist On
asking what it was he showed me that
it was an implement for producing

turers at home to illustrate the pro-
ducuOn of heat by suddenly compress

The former was followed at the lower
end and smeared with wax to receive a
piece of cotton or finder, which when
pressed into it adhered. The tube was
closed at one end Placing the piston
at the top of the tube, with a smart
blow he struck 1t down and imme-
diately withdrew it with the finder on
fire, the sudden compression Of the air
having ignited it. was so much
struck with the scientific ingenuity Of
this rude implement that procured
1t from the Burman and sent 1t to the

STRAIGHT LINE TO
GREATER PROSPERITY
Tennessee State Fair Is Regular
Short Course in Money Making.

Short Course in Manipulating.
When the farmers are prosperous, the
country as whole cannot long remain
otherwise. Agriculture is recognized as
the bulwark of our national safety and
the more the man who tills the soil
knows about his business, the better will
be the financial condition of the country
No element has had a more decided eff.
feet in the development Of the country's
farming interests, and the allied interests
Of stock and poultry raising and fruit
culture, than have the hundreds of coun-
ty fairs and the twenty-odd State fairs
The most representative exhibition
held in the South is the Tennessee State
Fair, which is held each year at Nash.
vile, and which comes during the week
Of September 20 to September rs this
year.
The 1909 fair will be regular revela-
ton in resources, but it will be much
more than mere exposition. IN each
department there will be free demonstra.
tions and lectures, stereopticon talks,
public judging, etc, etc, which will give
to week spent at the fair the practical
value of short course at an agricultural
college.
Most of the professors at the Agri-
cultural College of the State University
are connected with the fair In some way
and provide for instruction along the
same lines as are employed at the Uni
versity, with the notifications neces-
sary in handling large crowds
Already the lessons of this fair have
been worth hundreds of thousands of
dollars to the South, and under the CON
troll of the State government, as it will
be after January /, 1870 its influence
for good should continue to increase rap
idly year after year.
But it is not only as = place to learn
how to make more money that the State
Fair benefits the people who come under
its influence. The fun side of it affords
an opportunity for wholesome amuse-
ment such as could not possibly be found
! GioCM LAClO NltADul INC opCuAAAS VI a
whole lot of money.
The Fair Association will spend over
$1,000 this year in free amusement fea-
lures alone. The country's leading con-
cert band-Weber's Band of Cincinnati
will play twice daily out in front of the
big grand stand where the seats are all
| free At the same place six of the very
best open-air acts that money can pro-
cure will do their turns for the amuse-
ment of the tens of thousands who
throng the grounds each day.
On the track blooded horses will con-
test in trials of speed each afternoon,
and at night that part of the track in
front of the grand stand will be con-
verified into brilliant show ring, lit by
hundreds of big arc lights. Then after
the horse show each evening the Amuse-
ment Committee has provided for mag
nifcent displays of fireworks.
The policy Of the fair is to keep the
idea of instruction urpermost, but to Sc
mix in the element of fun as to make
the week a pleasure as well as profit
able.

BERLIN, March 16.-Advices re-
ceived at the foreign office today con-
corning the strained situation between
Austria-Hungary and Servia indicate
that the crisis is still in an acute state.
1t is affirmed that Austria-Hungary is
about to make another effort at Bel
grade with the view of bringing Ser
Was views into accord with her own.
The nature of these representations
is not disclosed, but it can be said that
the dual monarchy will demand a clear
explanation of Servia's intention.
officials say that if Servia comedies
this the negotiations will pursue a
peaceful course, but if not, hostilities
are inevitable and the only task of the
powers will be to localize the conflict
The report that Turkey will demand
an explanation of Servia's intentions
with regard to the large quantity of
war material now lying at Salonika
has been officially confirmed. Should
the reply be unsatisfactory an embargo
will be placed upon the supplies at
Salonika.
In the meantime Servia has arranged
to procure munitions of war and stores
via Bulgaria, but pressure Will be
brought upon Turkey to prevent the
passage of military supplies through
the DardanelleS.

READY TO OFFER
TARIFF MEASURE
PAYNE'S BILL WILL BE PRE-
SENTED TODAY
cushman of Washington Placed on
the Ways and Means Committee.
Northwest Urges Several
Amendments
tBy Associated Press.l

WASHINGTON, March 16.-The
Payne tariff bill will be introduced IN
the house early tomorrow. In the
meantime II will be reprinted. AT
meeting of the Subcommittee or Re-
publican members held today after
Speaker Cannon had appointed the
committee on ways and means several
changes in the bill were attended to.
The meeting was for the purpose OF
securing the approval of the new Re-
publican member, Cushman of wash
ington, who had no knowledge or the
provisions of the bill.
The appointment of Representative
Cushman gives the Pacific coast two
representatives on the Republican side
of the ways and means committee ana
leaves the Rocky mountain states with
out representatives.
While Mr. Cushman had little time
in which to consider the bill, his atti-
tude may have changed the measure
considerably The changes agreed on,
however, are mainly in phraseology.
Seek Canadian Trade
Mr.. Cushman represents that section
of the country which desires to improve
its commercial relations with Canada,
especially to secure market In the
Dominion for citrus fruits, olives,
grapes and other commodities of per-
ishable character for which a ready
market is needed.
on the other hand, the lumber inter-
ests are very large in that section, and
Mr.. Cushman's attitude may have had
material effect in regard to the lumber
schedule Numerous briefs have been
submitted by important interests in the
northwest having free iron ore, and the
competition with Canadian coal in view
has a part in the reciprocity arrange
ment with Canada.
Printed copies of the tariff bill, the
matrices and even the paper remaining
on the presses that were used to print
the bill, have been in the vaults of the
printing Office since 1880 this morning.
1t had been planned to bring in the
bill today, but 1t was desired to secure
for 1t the unanimous approval of the
Republican members, making Mr..
Cushman's Endorsement necessary.

PSYCHOLOGY OF A SHIRT
TOLD BY A LAUNDRYMAN
Owner of Soiled Linen Goes Through
Four Evolutions Before 1t
Comes Back

CHICAGO, March 16.-In sending a
shirt to the laundry and repeating the
performance, man goes through four
psychological states. according to A. F.
Sheldon of Libertyville, ILL.,, in a COM
munication to the annual convention OF
laundrymen now in session here.
First, he feels an interest in sending
his shirt to be laundered," said Mr..
Sheldon. when he actually does the
deed his mind must be built up to the
intenseness of desire"
This, it Is explained, Is the work of
the boy who solicits trade.
''The desire must blaze up until it
melts the WILL" Mr. Sheldon continues.
'It is not until the will is touched that
the decision is really made to have the
work DONE"
This is also said to be the business of
the boy.
Two more activities. according to Mr..
Sheldon, are required for getting the
customer to do it again.
''He must have confidence, he must
be satisfied, and to keep him in this
state is the work of the laundry pro-
prietor."
