NO USE FOR SUSPENDERS
Shanghaites Wear Self-Adjusting
Trousers and Don't Need any
Supporting Carriers.

There is at least one country in the
world where there is no market for
suspenders or garters. Consul Gener-
al Wilder of Shanghai, in reply to in
quiries from enterprising American
manufacturers, has informed the state
department that suspenders do not
interest the natives of China because
the trousers of the natives are so
constructed as to render the use OF
suspenders unnecessary. Nor do the
natives need garters, because the
trousers when properly adjusted are
tied over the sock at the ankle with
a band of ribbon or cotton.

Lands Eliminated.

Washington, d. C.-Nearly 100000
acres of land have been eliminated
from the Leadville and Pike National
forests in Colorado by proclamation
Just signed by the President. Most OF
the land already has been patented, but
the unappropriated portions later will
be opened to settlement. BY these
eliminations the Leadville forest loses
42,34O acres, and the Pike 51,O24 acres
1t is expected that additional proclama'
tions will be signed within a short
time which will make the total elimina-
tions from the national forests in Colo
RADIO more than half a million acres.

WATERED MALAY RUBBER
Consul at Singapore Reports s15o,ooo
Estate Sold to the Public for
100000.

In reporting to this government on
opportunities in Malaysia for rubber
growing enterprises. Consul General
James T. Dubois at Singapore, to show
how the investing public is sometimes
taken in in the exploitation of the
rubber industry there. cited the fol-
lowing:
IAN estate was sold to promoters
for s150,00o. The syndicate got an
old planter who knew the estate to
put fiotation value on it. He named
s250,000. The promoters were not sat
isfed Another expert examined and
reported. His price was s350,000. Brit
ish and American gold was pouring in
to the country and the get-rich-quick
spirit was born. Another expert was
called. He was told of the former valu-
ations and that they were unsatisfac-
tory He valued the estate at 100000.
"Just at this time rubber took big
Jump In the London and New York
i iarkets, and another expert was
asked to report, and he placed the flo
tation price at $750,00O, and the syn
Gicate, in order to have it in round
numbers made it an even 100000 and
floated it at this price. People fought
for the stock, the share issue was over
subscribed and many of them immedi-
ately sold at good advance. All this
was done within few months with
out the slightest improvements on the
property except the natural growth OF
the few hundred acres of Para plants
which had recently been planted"
Trained white supervisors on the
rubber estates are in demand, the con-
sui general reports, and there is a,
scarcity of labor and consequent high
wages.
The Colorado statesman., 1910-08-20

ufacturers, many of them, operate
their own railroads at present. In
San Juan, the capital of the island,
which is on the north side. and Ponce,
the largest city on the south side OF
the island, there are electric railways.
An effort is being made, said Mr..
Skinner. to increase the production OF
coffee. Speaking of the attempt made
by a number of the coffee growers to
have a duty placed upon coffee, when
the Payne tariff law was under dis
cussion, Mr.. Skinner said he did not
think the present output of the island
would have justified such tariff.
New York alone could consume all
the coffee grown at present in Porto
Rico" said Mr.. Skinner. But the
coffee men are organizing, better
methods of cultivation will be adopt
ed and the area planted will be in
creased. Undoubtedly there is big
future ahead of the industry in the
island"

cIoudburst in Las Animas County.

Trinidad.-A cloudburst in Smith
canon. thirteen miles southwest OF
here, Tuesday afternoon, sent wall
OF water five feet high down upon Sc
gundo, mining camp, washing out
the tracks of the C. F. & l., and doing
considerable damage to company prop
erty. The flood waters reached here
about 4 D. M, but warning had been
sent ahead and residents in the low
lands were prepared to move at mo
ment's notice. The rWer rose feet
10 inches in about thirty minutes, but
did not reach the danger point ana
subsidized rapidly, causing no particular
damage here.

Postal Deficit Cut $4,000, 900.

More than s10,000,000 reduction IN
the postal deficit was made in the
first nine months of the fiscal year
lust ended, according to final returns
received by Postmaster General Hitch
cock from the auditor for the post
office department. Such a reduction
is unprecedented in the history of the
department.
The deficit for the nine months was
s2,7O9, 900, as against $12,S32.000 in
the same period of the preceding is-
cal year.
In the third quarter of the past

ter amounting to s58,934, 900 and the

TUBERCULOSIS IN THE PRISON
Per Cent. of Sufferers Is Enormous
and There Seems but One
Remedy.

From several Investigations that
have been made by the National AS
sociation for the Study and Proven
ton of tuberculosis, it is estimated
that on an average about fifteen per
cent. of the prison population of the
country is afflicted with tuberculosis
On this basis, out of the 10000 prison
ers housed in the penal institutions
of the United States at any given
time, not less than $4,000 are infected
with this disease. If the Philippine
islands and. other insular possessions
were taken into consideration the
number would be much larger Some
of the prisons Of Pennsylvania, Kan
sas and Ohio show such shocking con-
ditions with reference to tuberculosis
that many wardens admit that these
places of detention are death traps
Similar conditions could be found In
almost every state, and in the major
ity of cases the only sure remedy Is
the destruction of the old buildings
and the erection of new ones.

Governor Shafroth struck keynote
when he said: "That it is high time
for the states west of the Missouri
river to join hands and show to the
world what they have done and what
they expect to do ond to reveal to the
world, the great possibilities of the fu-
ture; that there is no better channel
through which this might be accom-
plished than a Fair and Exposition de-
voted to the interests of these states"
On September 3rd such an exposl-
ton will open in Denver and continue
until September 18th. The association
which has heretofore confined its eff
forts to Colorado and few adjacent
