Now he is drawing a salary of five
times that amount as general director

THE HoUsEYIFe's BILLS.
Massachusetts Inquiries Show Gen eraI Increase All Along the Line.

{ It is ant interestng detail in the re- port of aAp,nmission created in Mas sachusetts, to inquire into the cost or living that fhe average cost oi build ing houses has increased. This may be traced to rise in the prices of lumber, hardware. labor and other elements of construction. This may be reflected in higher rents: but the tenant has usual ly the opportunity of cheaper house The inquiry shows that the choice has not been exercised On the contrary. the returns indicate that the average family in Massachusetts has increased it's outgo for rent more than l2 per cent within the past decade. The same rule applies to other factors in the cost of living. The telephone has be- come a necessity, and the laundry lightens the labors of the housewife at the expense presumably willing, Of the husband. All this illustrates the fami- liam fact of growing demands with higher civilization. Many necessarle5 of life cost more than they did. This
 is plainly true of coal, butter. lard. eggs and meat, as we'll as of other items in the monthly budget of the housekeeper.
 Nor is it shown that wages and sal aries have kept pace with these in creases of expenses. The cry is for more economy. But that recourse has it's limits both in content and in health. Even the economies of the European menage, which have become more ia miliar on this side of the Atlantic. while commendable, have not met the condition. These inquiries. as whole. are more interesting than conclusive In a large sense. however. they'are ap- peals to individual thrift, wherein may lie their merit, since that need ap- plies as much to the women as to the man.-WashingtOn Post.

Not Allowed to Advertise-Fees Fixed
 Statute.

The German law fixes the exact fees which a German attorney has to claim for all kinds of professional work and the rechtsanwalt can charge neither more nor less.
 Those fees apply to all matters of the civil code and of criminal cases. The amount. according to the Green Bag. depends exclusively on the value of the object of contention.
 It is an old. though still unfulfilled wish of German lawyers to have a new fixed list of fees-not made after the old and low standard of the year 1870, but made with consideration to the changes-the numerous decided changes-which have taken place since that year.
 The rechtanswalt is attorney and counsellor at law all in one Gin Eng land solicitor and barrister). The rechtanswalt can never be a business man, as is the case in the United States.
 The exercise of the law is not to be considered a calling or profes sion, but is to be looked on more as a public office. According to the law yers code of the 1st of July. 1878. lawyer sare charged publicly with cer tain duties.
 He is obliged to have his residence in the town or district where he is appointed (so called residence duty). Further. he must conduct himself in and out of office in a way befitting his professional and social standing i e., duty due to his ran.

 His position in society is between officials and scholars and, through custom and law he is compelled to keep the position to the last degree. This compulsion to keep ones rank has given rise to the existence of

GROWING VALUATION
 OF TAXABLE PROPERTY
IL Has Practically Trebled in Arizona
 in Fourteen Years.

Ut will be interesting to many no doubt to see the exact figures showing the growth in the assessed valuation of taxable property in Arizona during the last fourteen years. The follow ing figures prepared by the territorial auditor, w. C. Foster. show the valu ation for fourteen years, the column to the right showing what part of the valuation was railroad property. l. will be seen that the total valuation has almost trebled in fourteen years. the valuation of railroad property in ,creasing almost in like proportion. It is explained that the figures for 1910 are not final as the board of equali zation has not yet acted on the ab- stracts submitted by the counties. The figures may be raised. but not lowered. so they are to say the least. conserva- tive.

sea even to the sea. The mad assault on Sumter has united twenty million of whites against eight million" Then the war party said to Davis: Tt is necessary that the first battle shall end in a victory for the south or the Sumter card will have been played in vain"
 Now comes the important part that only the secretary could tell. A lady endowed with wonderful beauty left Richmond for Washington with the ta- cit approval of Davis. She ingratiated herself into the confidence of McDow- els chief of staff. The officer, intoMi- cated by her beauty. ensnared by her wiles, undreaming of consequences. told her the time of McDowelrs ad- vance She sent the information to Richmond by trusty messenger, and along all the telegraph wires around Richmond there ran the summons for troops from all adjacent places. The battle of Bull Run was decided by troops from North Carolina who de- bouched from the cars while the bat tie was in progress. The confederate victory was complete. It was made to appear as if gained by fifteen thousand cOnfederates against thirty-five thou and federals. The peace party was silenced and grim war was on.-Har- per's Weekly.

TENEMENT MADE MILLINERY
Making of Willow Plumes and Arti-
 ficiaI Flowers By Italians.

The tying of the flues of willow | plumes, the sweeping artificial os-
 trich feathers of the present fashion
 has become in the last two years a
 very extensive industry in New York tenements. The factories where these feathers are made are chiefly in the
 Italian districts of the upper East
 Side.
 On some streets the ground floor and first floor of almost every house is occupied by small factories and
 workshops. and in the season from March to June and from September to December the window of every fac
 tory has a sign In Italian: Women
 wanted to work in willow"
 Most of the curling and dyeing of the feathers is done in the factories: but 70 per cent of the willowing is done in the tenements It consists fin tying to every flue or filmy strand of good ostrich feather two strands stripped from inferior ostrich feath- CTS.
 The work Is paid for by the inch: five or six cents an inch in fac tories, and four or five cents an inch in the homes for black piumes and a cent less for white. The inch is measured on the stem of the orig inal feather, and therefore involves the tying of innumerable delicate knots for each inch of finished work.
 A tenement worker cannot make an eighteen inch feather in less than one and a half or two days. She is paid 72 or 90 cents for thIs work. call af fai from sS5O to s25
 The artificial flower industry Is one of the largest and most inter esting of the seasonal trades in New York. Seventy-three per cent of the entire artificial flower manufacture of the United States is carried on fin the Italian districts below Fourteenth street. In almost every house. in- deed. it might be said on every floor of every house-whole families of Italians. from children of three and four years old to feeble men and women of great age, work at flower making, night and day. during the busy season.
 The season lasts from January to June. The cutting and dyeing of the various parts of the flowers and a certain proportion of the making is done in factories. The tenement worktr's share may be stemming leaves. that is. fixing leaves to tape making the whole flower out of its parts. or branching. a pro- cess that involves the wiring of leaves and flowers into sprays. and their arrangement in branches or wreaths.
 Such work Is paid for by the piece. The sum varies from 31k to 5. 12. 14 or 25 cents a gross. The pay Is al- ways too small to provide living wage even when a whole family is working together

The last vestige of doubt concerning the success of the new hotel project was dissipated yesterday at the spe- cial meeting of the stockholders of the Adams Hotel company. It was defin- itely announced that the full sum of s250.O00. originally determined upon as necessary for the construction and furnishing. had been subscribed. and the facts brought out at the meeting indicate that a fireproof structure is more than likely. New directors were also elected by the stockholders.
 J. C. Adams. who with A. w. Bal lard and Roy Goodrich, has been in Los Angeles for ten days conferring with contractors and architects rela- tive to the style and character of the building to be constructed. reported, with MT. Ballard, that in all probabili- ty it would be possible to construct a fire proof building of reinforced con- crete for the sum tentatively fixed up for the cost of the building, S200. GOO. If this can be done there will be S50,O00 available for furnishings The stockholders unanimously express cd their satisfaction with the good prospects for fireproof building.
 Everybody appreciated the great value of a fireprOof hotel both from the standpoint of its earning capacity and as an advertisement for the town. The building committee. composed of the three gentlemen mentioned. will be able to report to the directors shortly whether a strictly fireproof building can be built for s200,000. according to rAl., F,- hotel with TO guest rooms.

THE SIREN OF BULL RUN.
important Part Played by Beautiful Woman in the Great Union Defeat.

In a secluded nook on one of the great decks, and with the Mediterrane- an sparkling at our feet. the scenes of old World battles appearing and dis appearing, we exchanged views. 1 asked what the south thought of Mir. Lincoln. He answered that up to the time of Lees surrender the souths estimate of Mir Lincoln was low It wondered that he held the north together and gave him credit for shrewdness in doing it. There was, however, a brief period be- fore the war when MT. Lincoln both surprised and pleased an influential and intellectual minority of the south ern people. 1t was after his first in auguration. His kindly words and his hesitation to employ force made many of the ablest southerners say: Let us take him at his word He promises 2 constitutional amendment making slavery a matter for the states only. What better could we get after sue cessful war;" Others said: We have been preparing for this thirty years We would be foolish to pause now" MT. Lincoln was making converts ev- cry day. The war propagandists said to Davis: You must sprinkle blood in the face of the southern people or the confederacy will collapse in a month" The assault on Fort Sumter was or dered, and fired the southern heart so that Virginia was swept into the seces sion vortex. But the battle for peace did not end even then.
 The conservatives said: Tt is true that the south is united more than it was, but the north is united from the
