Naples is the bay. which is said to be
the most beautiful in the world; SO
grand is It that the old pagan poet
said See Naples and die" Naples
is growing very rapidly and is an i'm.
portant sea port city, but with all its
beauty and grandeur 1t has an awful
scar for it is at present the hotbed
of the BLACK Hand" societies, and
has many anarchists. Strange to say
my American readers, 1t is this locality
that is furnishing us with the most of
our immigrants. The steamer that
We came over on from New York TO
Naples was. booked to take back to
America l,S0O steerage passengers
from Naples. Many of these we are
told, are very ignorant and many are
said to be desperate criminals. Cant
something be done to stop these un.
desirable people from coming to the
United States? In talking with some
Italians of the better class, | was
bluntly asked why we received these
anarchists and Black Hand people into
our country. OF course the better peo.
pie do not want them here.
Will some one answer this question
in the states? But, after all, there is
a cheerful countenance about the ltal-
ian people that you see here which is
very remarkable. Even the poor PEG.
pie, who are barefootcd and hungry,
seem happy. They do not have the
same rush and hustle that the Ameri-
cans have to make money, but seem
contented with a little.
From Naples we had a beautiful
ride of 1862 miles through the most
fertile fields and valleys. Every inch
of ground seems to be farmed. At
of Rome, the glory of which is in her
ruined palaces, temples and forums,
which speak a language that is not
dead There is more grandeur in ruins
and dust here than in any other city.
There is much here to see. OF course,
with the Roman Catholics, it is of
great Importance to see the church
of st. Peter, and the vatican. The lat
ter contains 900 rooms; but all peo-
pie and nationalities are greatly de-
sirous to see these monuments of the
Catholic church. The great patriotic
gem of Rome is the monument of
Giuseppe Garibaldi, the hero Of the
Italian kingdom. 1t is of great inter
est to christians of all creeds to visit
the Mamertine prison, in which st.
Paul was kept before he was put to
death, and the prison in which he was
when he wrote the Epistle of Second
Timothy.
Rome City of 100000
Rome is growing rapidly and now
has 100000 people, and next year
there is to be a great exposition of
art in the city which will last from
May to October. AS soon as tourists
or strangers arrive at Rome their
names must be sent to the chief of
police at the capitol office, where these
are kept for reference, so our names
are now held by the chief of police.
The colosseum is the best preserved of
all the ruins in Rome. 1t is 1877 feet
high and it was here that the emper-
ors held the gladatorial contests, and
also where hundreds of thousands of
christians suffered death in various
manners, some by burning, turned
loose to hungry lions, executed and be-
headed. The Roman Forum is near
the Colosseum and here was the SEN
ate house where Cicero, Brutus An
tony, Cato, julius Caesar, and other
noted orators gave addresses. In this

auiLLeAcK BUYS A NEW CLOCK.
-'e Shows False Economy Of
~cepine Old One Too Long.

"At last" said n. Quillback, I'VE
nave bought lock, and good
ness knows W. l it.
The old cl small, round,
nlcHel-plated .:er we had had
Tor some yea: i'll the course Of
time 1t began now signs Of wear
But we hated 20 go 10 the expense Of
a new clock as long as we could make
that one do, so we kept It, shaking her
up most every day for something like
a year until finally it got to be so tire
some that We mustered up courage
and bought a new clock
And then ! did a little figuring. In
the course Of year l mad spent an
average OF five minutes day shaking
up that old clock on, say, 300 days,
making, to save the cost of a new
clock, gross total Of time spent
amounting to 1900 minutes. You d.
vide this by 30 and you find that had
spent In shaking up that blessed old
clock little more than 25 hours!
Now, in the way of income, you
know. l don't pretend to class up with
the Rockefellers and Carnegies and
that sort Of folks, but figuring my
earning capacity on the modest basis
OF SO cents an hour 1 find that 1 have
spent in shaking up that miserable old
ticker time to the value of $3.50! And
the new clock cost only 60 cents!
"Of course. buying the new clock
when we did instead OF a year sooner,
we saved the wear on 1t in that
period, and II we count the life Of
such a clock at say ten years we find
that we have thus saved about seven
cents worth Of wear on the new clock,
and this, properly, of course, should be
deducted from the $3.50, but even at
that, in the best showing possible we
find that to save 60 cents we have met
with net loss Of $l2.43, to say moth
ing OF the wear and tear on us caused
by the aggravation Of having to shake
the old clock up every day and make
It goi
We had been, as in so many ways
we are prone 20 be, penny wise and
pound foolish, but we are learning
wisdom and We haven't got to shake
the old clock un any more, anyway"

THURSDAY, MARCH 3, 1910
PASSING The TAMBOURINE

The tambourine is being passed
around in behalf of the republican con-
gressional campaign committee and
the many benefciaries of the tariff are
said to be coming across handsomely.
Without calling on any but the trust
benefciaries of the new tariff bill it is
estimated at Washington that several
million dollars will be raised for use by
the republicans in the congressional
campaigns next fall. New England
alone is being looked to by the republi-
can committee for, at least, a couple of
millions and in view of the splendid
favors shown the protected industries
of that corner of the country the belief
is quite general that they will be very
generous.
Congressman Mckinley of Illinois is
at the head of the republican con-
gressional campaign committee. He is
known as the House Santa Claus. He
is enormously wealthy. and owns most
of the trolly roads in Illinois. He is
chairman for that reason, and is ex-
pected to grease things along if it be
comes necessary.
The congressional committee. with
some foresight, has reorganized it's ex-
ecutive committee, and made it ND of
men whose aggregate wealth will foot
up about two hundred dollars.
James r. Mann of Illinois and Mich
olas Longworth of Ohio were taken off
the committee to make way for Sem
ators Dixon and Guggenheim, both of
whom own gold, copper and silver
mines, and are making money so fast
that they cannot keep track of it.
Another new man on the executive
board is representative Morehead of
North Carolina, multi-millionaire
banker, tobacco dealer and cotton and
wooden mill man. J. Van Vechten o.
colt of New York, possessor of a big
fortune, also has been drafted for SER
vice on the committee.
Other wealthy men OH the committee
are Representative Weeks, a Boston
banker, and Representative Bartholdt
OF Missouri, who has friendly relations
with the big st. Louis brewery inter
ests.
The congressional committee has
never made public list of its con-
tributors and it's expenditures. The
Wisconsin Insurgents, who, like the
Others, will get no help form the CON-
mittee. are demanding an accounting
of the 1908 fund.
Representative Mckinley has already
visited New England, while Postmaster
General Hitchcock, who was at the
head OF the Republican National com.
mittee in 1908, and who resigned the
Craftsmanship Of that committee on be-
coming member of President Taft's
cabinet, has been credited by the New
York World and other papers with
having visited Wall Street in the inter-
est OF the republican congressional
campaign .-National Monthly.
