To show how up-to-date everything

interior kindly calls the attention of
congress to the elevators in the in
terror department, which were put in
service over thirty years ago. In the
first place, these same elevators are

to carry half dozen and unable to lift

them the lifts" move at the rate OF an
inch a minute and every once in a
while fall to the bottom. An appropri-

installation of four new electric lifts

ship. Donor and recipient were pleased
beyond measure. and the ships re-
sumed their journeys.
After the lapse of considerable time,
number of Chilean warships stopped
in the harbor at Rio Janeiro, and
among the entertainments prepared 70
the officers was one at the American
legation. Minister Bryan was more
than usually felicitous as a host, and
the Chileans thought they should in
some manner show their appreciation.
So the next day delegation of gold
laced. beplumed and clanking warriors
appeared at the legation. and after
presenting Col. Bryan an address
teeming with good nature they gave
him the onca-the same old cat. only
larger and hungrier. and more re-
pulsive-and the minister turned away
to hide his tears. He had received
the same token twice from two wide
ly separated sources.
Later the onca was given to the
captain of a merchant ship under an
ironclad agreement the animal was not
to be put ashore at 4 port anywhere IL
Col. Bryan was there.
Col. Bryan has had an interesting
diplomatic experience. While serving
in Brazil he witnessed the rise and
collapse of a revolution against the re-
public but the disturbance never was
serious enough to cause embarrass-
ment to the diplomatic corps.
Then he was transferred to Portugal
and was in Lisbon at the time of the
assassination of the king.

HOL. CHARLES PAGE BRYAN,
~ who has been transferred from his
place as minister to Portugal to that
of minister to Belgium, had an unusual
tribute paid to his popularity while
serving as minister to Brazil. A large
coffee importer, returning from a trip
to the interior. brought with him a
young onca, which is a species of wild
cat or tiger, and he gave it to Col.
Bryan as a testimonial of his regard.
The minister was fond of animals,
and priced his gift highly. but the
onca. while interesting during its
youth, rapidly loses that attraction as
1t becomes older. one of its specialties
being an Unsuitable appetite. The col
onel wearied of his pet, and one day
when some United States battleships
were in port he presented the onca to
the officers of the Iowa as a mascot.
In the course of time the men of the
navy looked about for some one on
whom to unload the animal. and at
Buenos Ayres they fell in with a
Chilean man-of-war. AS a token of the
cordiality existing between them, the
impoverished Iowa officers gave the
onca to the officers of the Chilean war

most any coin rather than the five
cent piece. 1t stands for more stable
prices than any other. 1t is the price

The five-cent coin for two genera

thousands of five-cent pieces are lost

THE late Congressman Griggs of
i Georgia once had an experience
with a negro elevator operator in the
post office department at Washington
which the negro probably never will
forget. The congressman entered an
express elevator which was forbidden
to stop below the fifth floor. on which
is located the Office of the postmaster
general

said the congressman.
This elevator doan' stop below the

THE STORY OF THE PEANUT
SHELLS.

AS everyone knows, c. w. Post OF
Battle Creek, Michigan, is not only
maker of breakfast foods, but he is
strong individual who believes that the
trades-unions are menace to the lib
erty of the country.
Believing this, and being natural
born" scrapper for the right, as he
sees it, Post, for several years past.
has been engaged in a ceaseless war
fare against "The Labor Trust" as he
likes to call it.
Not being able to secure free and
untrammeled expression of his opiu-
ions on this subject through the regular
reading pages of the newspapers he
has bought advertising space for this
purpose, just as he is accustomed to
for the telling of his Postum STORY"
and he has thus spent hundreds OF
thousands of dollars in denouncing
trades-unionism.
AS a result Of Posts activities the
people now know a whole lot about
these organizations: how they are
honeycombed with graft, how they OBJ
struct the development of legitimate
business, curtail labor's output. hold
up manufacturers, graft upon their'own
membership, and rob the public. Natu-
rally Post is hated by the trades
unionists, and intensely.
He employs no union labor, so they
can not call out his men, and he defies
their efforts at boycotting his products.
The latest means of getting" Post is
the widespread publication of the story
hot wi W. mrnrkad
in transmission was found to be loaded
with empty peanut shells, which were
being shipped from the south to Posts
establishment at Battle Creek.
This canard probably originated with
President John Fitzgerald of the Chi
cago Federation of Labor, who, it is
said, stated it publicly, as truth.
Post comes back and gives Fftz-
gerald the lie direct. He denounces
Fitzgerald's statement as deliberate
talsehood, an underhanded and coward
ly attempt to injure his business, hav-
ing not the slightest basis in fact. AS
such an effort it must be regarded. 1t
Is significant that this statement about

that labor-unionites are insidiously

will resort to moral intimidation and
to physical force, that will destroy ma
chinery and burn buildings, that will
MAIN and kill If necessary to effect its
ends, naturally would not hesitate to
spread falsehood for the same pur
poses.
We admire Post. While we have no
enmity toward labor unions, SO long as
they are conducted in an honest, live
an6-let-live" kind of way. we have had
enough of the tarred end of the stick
to sympathize thoroughly with what he
is trying to do. He deserves support
A man like Post can not he killed, even
with lies. They are boomerang; every
time. Again, we knotc, for hasn't this
weapon, every weapon that could be
thought of, been used (and not simply
by labor unions) to put us out of busi-
ness, too?
