ENGLAND ALLY
OF U. s. in WAR
If This Country Gets Into Trouble
in Far East Aid will be
Forthcoming.
SO DECLARES SIR R.W. PERKS
Prominent Member OF British Parlia-
ment Says Blood is Thicker Than
Water and " Trouble Ever
Comes Look Out.


New York, March 25.-'If the Unit
ed States ever gets into trouble in
the Far East, England will be on her
side and the combined navies OF the
two greatest powers i'm the world Will
sweep the seas with the stars and
stripes flying from the halyards along
with the flag OF ST. George"
This Is terse summing up Of the
Far Eastern question, given by sir
Robert w. Perks, for nearly twenty
years prominent member of the
British Parliament, before a meeting
of New York Methodists at Metro
politan temple here last evening.
Sir Robert, besides being n member
Of Parliament, Is head Of one of the
largest international contracting firms
i'm Great Britain.
II want to denounce those jinges
who have been attempting to stir up
trouble through false reports OF anil
mostly between Great Britain and the
United states over some of England's
treaties with Far Eastern countries"
he said in beginning his address.
There's not word OF truth in their
stories. 7 do not believe there Is any
danger threatening in the Pacific. But
II a struggle comes you will dnd blood
is thicker than water and stronger
than treaties. If trouble comes all
such diplomatic contracts viii be
swept overheard like so much waste
paper

LIFE OF PYTHAGoRAs.'
Webster Dock Tells Pythians About
Ancient Greek Character.

The lecture given by Webster Dock
OF Hancock to the members OF Charity
lodge, knights of Pythias, last even
ing oa "The Life of Pythagoras" was
very well received and proved enter
tanning and instructive to the local
Pythians. IL is on the teachings of
Pythagoras to the ancient Greeks as
well as the story of Damon and Pythias
that the Pythian order has largely
been built, and for this reason the lee
ture was appropriate. Pythagoras was
leader of philosophical thought in
Greece, and was the central figure in
a religious brotherhood, which to some
extent resembles the knights of Py-
thias of today, about the year 529.
Mr. Dock handled his subject in a
very able manner, describing the his
tory and beliefs of the people of that
time and showing a very intimate
knowledge of the teachings upon which
the present order is founded. Those
who were present report that the eve
ming was most profitable one.

HIGH Price OF
MEAT EXPLAINED
Population Of U. S. Has Increased
and Number Of Food Animals
Decreased.
OFFICIAL DATA MADE PUBLIC
Increase in Population in Last Ten
Years Has Been 100000 While
Food Animals Have Decreased
100000.

Washington, March 25.--An increase
of l2OO0O00 In the population of the
United States during the past ten years
and decrease of about 100000 in the
number of available food animals Is
the estimate made by the bureau of
statistics from reports on these two
subjects made respectively by the
census bureau and the department of
agriculture.
Another lesson in the law of supply
and demand deduced by the bureau of
statistics is the food of animals has
gone down three per cent while the
value has increased 22 per cent. In
the meantime the price of grains nee
cs1ary for food for these animals has
increased from 56 to IS per cent.
The value of cattle, sheep and hogs
in this country in 1901 was estimated
at S1,943, ,OO0, 900; in 1910, at S2,36S,OOO.-
600. This is an increase of 22 per cent
Cattle are the one class of food ami
mails which have come anywhere near
keeping pace with the growth i'm pop
ulation. Cattle have increased in num-
Der eleven per cent while the popula
tion increased 16 per cent There were
about 2.3 animals to each person in the
country in 1901 land i'm 1910 about 1.9
A pound of lard in 1910 was worti
/ IA cents; in 1910. is cents. an increase
of 14S per cent. This may be account
ed for in part at least by the fact thai
there has been a decrease of 16 pei
cent in the number of hogs in the Uni.
ted States.
