START A LITTLE
 HOME FACTORY
A New Book Creating Widespread Interest

This new book is being circulated widely throughout the country by The National Home Products League. an organization for the promotion of the welfare of the home, advancing plans and ideas whereby women may earn in the home without seeking employment in mills, factories, stores or shops.
 The purpose of the book is to familiar ize women with such methods as they are now using to earn livelihood. It is creating widespread interest in the entire subject
 Mrs. Alden tells women how to earn money in womanly ways. One is struck by the number of original and novel occupations mentioned. Its value in every home from Maine to Oregon will be more than transient. It is breezy and inspires confidence and women will find 1t comfort to have in the home. There IS hardly woman who may not some day be called upon to earn and this book may save many an anxious hour.
 The first efforts of this organization is to deal with home manufacture of goods which can be sold by the maker in her own locality, without the aid of the selling organization of the League. Later the manufacture of articles in the home to be sold widely through the League is to be taken up.
 Those who are interested in earning who wish to consider the making and selling in their own locality, articles of home manufacture, will receive full information by writing to The National Home Products League, 277 Broadway, New York City.
 If the book, "Women's Ways of Earning Money" is of interest, the cloth edition may be secured by mailing $1.O0 to the League.
 One of the profitable lines of manu- facture advocated by the League, is the treatment of any inexpensive cotton cloth with waterproof fluid, then making in the home waterproof aprons, overalls, rain coats, hay covers, wagon covers, rain curtains for carriages and automobiles, folding water buckets and bath tubs.
 The cost of waterproohng cloth by such methods does not exceed two cents per yard and produces a material superior to any other to be had and very light weight.
 There is great local demand for such goods, especially when they can be sold at only fraction of the cost of rubber material or rubber substitutes, which are usually very heavy in weight and last but short period of time,

Throughout the middle ages the sporting English, what ever their faults may have been otherwise. were usual ly more humane than the other na- tiOns of Europe. They did not often yield to cruelty in victory and they seldom slaughtered women and chil- dren. They had few torture chambers, but many boxers. There were no bulls in the British arena, but innumerable Wrestlers on the village green. We have inherited both their customs and their point of view.
 Strength is disposed to kindness. It is truism that the big boxers are bet ter natured than the little ones, and many wise philosophers have held that weakness inclines to cruelty when it has a chance. The physical contest may let off the steam which bottled up becomes dangerous. Savages never boxed, but they burned their enemies York World.

| THE CULTURED AND THE
 STRONG.

John L. Sullivan, just arriving from Europe, has been asked his opinion about the coming prize fight between Jeffries and Johnson, and his opinion interests tens of thousands of people who never saw prize fight in their lives. It is a striking instance of the love of physical prowess inherent in the human race. Nobody asks who Jokn L. Sullivan is. Yet he never did anything noteworthy except with his fists.
 It is urged that interest in feats of strength and bodily skill indicates bar barism, or at least a lack of culture. This is the hasty view taken by many people. but is it true? Is it any sound CT than the theory that ugly women must be good and that beautiful wOm en must be bad? The Greeks were the most highly civilized race of antiquity and they were also the sportiest. They abolished nearly all forms of torture and they invented nearly every form of chariot race. They were the great est writers of their time, but the hand that wieided the stylus could not de- liver a terrible blow with the cestus. It Is possible that the best sculptor in the world and the best wrestler in the world lived in the same Athenian street. Attic philosophers and Attic sprinters flourished side by side. Their great enemies, the Persians. whom they beat, were as lacking in sports as they were in literature.

RHODE ISLANDS POPULATION
 FIRST. CENSUS RETURN
of State Gives an Increase of More
 Than 118,00o.

Washington, July 21,-Gratifying as is the increase in the population of Rhode Island as shown by today's census returns, the first given out of a state, the little commonwealth will be disappointed in any ambition she may have entertained to add to her representation in congress. By the thirteenth census the state population is 542,674, an increase of more than 11S,000, but this figure is not sufficient 1y large to insure an additional rep resentative. Thus, for at least ten years more, the state will be com pelled to get on with two members, as it has been compelled to do since the apportionment under the first na- tiona1 census in 1790.
 By the present system Rhode Island with 42S,556 people in the twelfth census of 1900 has one representative to each 214,27S people, an average of about 21,000 above the requirement. of 193000 As now shown. the state has 156.000 more people than are nec- essary to give two representatives.
 Noticeably, the increase in the states population is confined almost entirely to the manufacturing cen ters, such as Providence, Pawtucket Central Falls. Woonsocket, Warwick Bristol and Cumberland. In Wash ington county, the principal .agricul- tural county, there was a growth in the ten years of only 79S

 in Passamaquoddy Bay.

Bar Harbor, Me, July 21.-President Taft will speak on the village green here tomorrow at noon and have a chance to see the year-round residents of this famous watering place and to be seen by them Until MT. Taft's in- tention to do -this was annoupced to- day, war clouds were gathering fast between the Maine cisjze7s and the members of the fashionable summer colony whose plans for the entertain ment of the chief magistrate and the members of his yachting party failed to include any concession to the will lage folk, of whom there are about 5000.
 The president was informed of this situation this afternoon by J. P. Bass of Bangor, who has a sumrI-r resi- dence here. MT. Taft at once con- scented to the suggestion that he make little speech to the villas gers The details were quickly arranged and placards announcing the event soon were posted at every vantage point and in all but the ultra fashionable shop windows.
 Social. affairs and golf occupied the presidents day. He had a blackboard ride out to Jordan pond tonight for shore supper" of lobster and other sea dainties. It was nine mile drive each way through a stiff westerly breeze that brought an autumn breath with it.
 The most exciting incident of the presidents cruise thus far was the rescue. of two Indians who capsized their canoe while the MayfIower was at anchor in PaSsamaquoddy bay.

FRENCH RAcPICKER CONFESSED
Yesterday to the Crime Which Occur red Nine Years Aso-Whoie of France Stirred at the Time.

Tours, France, July 21.-A rag pick CT named Joseph today confessed to the assassination April 21 1901 of i've children of farmer named Briere Tn the vicinity of Chartres. The ia ther of the children was found guilty of the murders and was sentenced to life Imprisonment. He died in prison.
 Found Dead in Bed.
 The trial of Briere attracted the at tention of the whole of E'Unce Four of hls daughters. aged respectively IA, II, and 1, and his son, years of age, were found in bed one morning stabbed and beaten to death. The farmer was arrested and charged by the police with the crime According to theory advanced by the police to provide a motive for the crime Briere who owned a small farm near Ceran- cez. wished to marry a woman of con siderable wealth. CircumStantial evil dence led to the conviction that, the farmer, considering his family an en- cumbrance, murdered his five children in order to carry out his wishes.
 Father Maintained His Innoncence.
 Briere stoutly maintained his in nocence throughout the trial and de- clared that two tramps entered the house during his absence and killed the children. He added that he re- turned while the murderers were rob ping the place. and that they attacked him and left him for dead. During the trial the judge got down from the bench and gave loud expression to his opinion of the guilt of the prisoner while the spectators yelled with fury:
 Kill hfmi Kill himi'
 pathetic incident of the trial oc- cured when Briere's surviving daugh- ter. who, the police declared. only es- caped the fate of the other children by not responding to Briere's invita- ton to go to see him, went on the witness stand, and sobbingly protested that her father was innocent and beg ged the court to restore him to her.

6o,0o0 PERSONS
 MADE IDLE BY STRIKE. English Railway Struggle Also Caus- ing Enormous Losses in Products

Newcastle Eng, July 21.-The strike of employees of the Northeastern rail road is fast demoralizing the indus tris dependent upon the line. The dis irganization of traffic threatens ruin to many shippers.
 In addition to the 12, 1000 railroad men who are out, it was estimated today that fully 50.000 workers in the col lieries shipyards, iron works and oth- CT plants, have been ~ rendered idle through the inability of the companies to move their products. The loss on perishable goods-fish. milk and the like-is enormous. Whole catches of the herring fleets intended for Yar- mouth and Lowestoft curers are rot ting at the different shipping points along the line of the railroad.
 The Amalgamated Society of Rail way Servants today refused to recog- nize and finance the strike against the Northeastern Railway company This attitude on the part of the society, which embraces the whole country will probably prove fatal to the suc- cess of the strike.
