Japan's Napoleon.

From the Engineering Magazine.
In 1885 was born in japan an under
sized boy of good but poor parentage
who, at the age Of thirteen resolved to
make himself the chief power in the dis
tracted kingdom. For 200 years the mil
liant barons had warred against each
other, each trying to grab, annex and
hold what he could.
The boy. Hideyoshi. deliberately visited
the different courts, picked out the baron
he thought most endowed with suitable
character, succeeded with great difficulty
in entering his service In the humblest
position, and then steadily and inevitably
rose, firstly because he could read human
character and always knew almost as
soon as they did themselves whist his
and his lords enemies were plotting and
secondly because he was always Pre- pared
in advance for any undertaking and
skilled in carrying out.
Thus, when scarcely more than a child.
he reduced the cost of firewood used In
the palace to less than one-half; little
days, task estimated as requiring sixty
days; still later, single-handed, he Sc
cured provinces that armies had failed
to conquer.
BY gifts of tact, OF insight, of diligence.
of readiness that each one OF US thinks
he possesses, that any one Of Nippon Is
30 100000 inhabitants might have pos
sessed and exercised, Hideyoshi arose
step by step, until he directed and guided
the whole country, his general Iyeyasu
becoming the first of the Tokoguwa
dynasty which lasted from 1903 to 1867,
with headquarters at Yeddo (Tokio).

FROM harper weekly.
The business duel is the skirmish that
never makes a ripple in the general busi-
ness world. 1t is never heard of outside
its own line The big conflicts of big
concerns, struggling for pre-eminence in
territory that may be nationwide, are
not duels at all. They are great cam
paigns OF many battles fought by armies.
"A small group of men, it may be only
two, make mp the real business duel. One

Two obstinate firms, who make boiler
sticking equipment, are operating close to
New York today. Good times have pre-
vailed during the past nine years for those
who have wanted the product of either
concern. All any of them have had to do
has been to hint to one firm that the
other stood very excellent chance OF
getting an order. These tactics have been
played over and over again, but the con-

been an easy thing to get that product sc
close to the cost of production that time
and again it has actually been sold at a
loss.
The skill the two firms have shown in
financing themselves has been worthy of
better cause Both are still afoat.
Though with pitifuliy small actual assets.
1t has been a real personal duel that they
have been waging. It started in a dis
pute over a patent. Rather than thrash
the question out at joint meeting or go
to law about it, the wrangle has been al
lowed to rankle, and each firm has stead
lastly tried to kill the other. 1t will
not take long now. Mutual friends have
long since given up hope of getting either
of the parties to listen to reason.

SCORE OF STUDENTS HURT
IN ANNUAL CLASS RUSH
Purdue University Freshmen Victors
Over Sophomores in Fiercely Con-
tested Fight.

LAFAYETTE, Ind. September "A
score Of students were hurt in the an
nual rush between the freshmen and
sophomore classes of Purdue University
last night
Wagons were on hand to carry the in
jured to the fraternity houses. where they
were cared for. Several were carried
from the field unconscious.
The freshmen had 500 In line and the
sophomores 40 Several thousand per-
sons watched the class contest. When the
second-year men marched down the hill
near the college they were caught by the
freshmen, and after a hard battle that
lasted nearly an hour were tied with
ropes.
The freshmen then placed their numer-
ais on a big tank and the vanquished
sophomores were marched back to Stuar,
Field, where they were painted and made
to perform for the amusement of the
crowd.
1t was one of the most fiercely contest
ed fights in the history of Purdue. IL was
the eighteenth tank scrap" and the
sophomores have taken fourteen of the
eighteen fights.

The Market Basket.
le Springfield Republican,

From the Springfield Republican.
Municipal markets are about as old as
the life of man In cities Nevertheless,
our new west is just making their discov-
cry. or discovery Of something in varia-
ion from the usual order of such mar
xets. Following the action of the Des
Moines authorities in opening public
grounds to hucksters from the country
Indianapolis has established a market
commission of three members, which
recommends the formation Of a consum-
err league and the construction of a city
market place which will exclude the re-
tail provisioners and middlemen, and give
the right Of way to producers. Employ
ers are urged to change their pay day to
Friday, so that the wives of employees
can take advantage Of the Saturday mar
ket. The city of Madison. Wis, is build
ing similar market place at a cost of
500 GOO It will likewise exclude the local
nit to it's stalls at % cents day pro-
ducers, or those who have purchased
their products outside of the city. In
this way it Is expected that the retail
provisoners will be crowded aside, and
that consumers will gain the benefit of
which, as alleged, have been going to the
middlemen.
These are old experiments. It is easy
enough to establish public market; 1t is
another thing to bring consumers to IT..
The people of Flushing. L. l.. have a
better sense of the situation. They are
also talking of public market, but 1t is
recognized that to keep such a market
alive we'll settled habits must be upset
among consumers. and something done to
lead them to do their marketing in per-
son. Accordingly. the woman folks are
reported as organizing to promote the
use Of the market basket. 1t is not re-
garded as fashionable now for the house
wife to follow the example of her pro-
genitor and do the family marketing in
the morning with a basket on her arm.
But they hope to make 1t fashionable.
and with this established the success OF
a public market would become at once

Abolish Postage Stamps!
rom the Syracuse Post Standard.

From the Syracuse Post Standard.
There Is no method Of doing business,
no matter how firmly established by ira
dition, that won't give way when some
thing better is found, and this is true
of the operations of the Post Office De-
partment firmly sewed in red tape as its
regulations are. From the time when the
paying of letter transportation in cash
was abandoned and the gummed govern
ment certificate called the stamp came
into use the civilized world has put up
with this rather clumsy device simply for
the reason that nothing better has been
offered. We have contented ourselves
with making jokes about the flavor of the
mucilage, tons of which in solution have
been swallowed every year by letter
writing public. The Inconvenience of the
stamped envelope and the difficulty of
recovering the value of postage stamps
attached by mistake are q part of the
ineradicable faults of the system.
1t Is odd that the United States and
Germany, countries which are peculiarly
Wig liant in adopting short cuts for doing
business, should wait for little Bavaria
to invent plan for improving the postal
machinery. Large consignments of mail
turned in at Bavarian post offices have
been postmarked by machinery without
the use of stamps and paid for in bulk.
That seems to be an advantage upon
present methods for concerns where a
gestion comes from Chicago that each
large concern using the mails might be
equipped with a meter, just as a house
is metered for gas, water and electricity,
the mailing matter passed through it auto
matically weighed and collected once a
month. Or since the Post Office Depart
ment is VIGOROUSLY averse to extending
credit, such mail might be paid for in adj
vance by a deposit made with the post
office. The expense of making stamps
and the expense and nuisance of attach
ing them would both be saved and the
saving would be large one.
A start at mailing letters without
stamps has been made under the new
regulation by which a concern may pay
for postage in bulk and print in the cor
ner of the envelope statement to that
effect That practice should be extend
ed. 1t would mean a saving to both
the government and its patrons. 1t might
lead in time to the adoption of the Ba-
varian system.

Cheese Instead of Meat.

From the Philadelphia Press.
It is singular and timely paradox
that those who do not wish a substf-
tute for meat need one, while the for
tunate few. who might eat meat at
every meal. are drinking buttermilk or
chewing nuts This phase of the food
question may not be supreme at pres
ent, but it Is certainly of general in
terest.
In connection with 1t we note the
conclusion reached by Mr. c. F. Lang
worthy, the government expert in
charge of nutritive Investigations.
Mr.. Langworthy is quite satisfied about
the main point. He dismisses with
kindly consideration the pretensions Of
fish, milk, mushrooms, nut products,
dried beans and other legumes, and
declares with refreshing finality
what Is the one and only worthy sub
stitute for meat. That, in word. is
cheese.
Now. there are two classes of
cheeses: those Of a wild flavor and
those seasoned or ripened to a high
flavor. 1t is the former or mild-f1avor-
ed cheeses-the ordinary factory or
cream kind of this country, similar to
the English Cheddar. the Swiss Gruy-
ere or the Edam-which is to be es-
teemed as a fair substitute for meat.
The government experiments have
demonstrated that on an average
over s5 per cent OF the fat and over 95
per cent Of the protein of such sheese
are digested, and over 80 per cent Of
the energy is available for the body.
These figures are practically the same
as obtained with meat. For the sake
OF such considerations as ease of prep
aration and relative economy, a pa
triotic youth was found who lived for
over two years on diet of cheese,
bread and fruit
OF course, there is really nothing
startling in this. Some Of the hardest
laboring men Of Europe live substan-
tally on cheese: the pioneer farmers
of the United States found a common
lunch Of crackers and cheese whole
some and satisfactory. At this point
1t is pertinent to note the results Of
the experiments made with cottage
cheese at the Minnesota experiment
station: 1T is one of the most
economical foods that can be used.
At 2 cents per quart for skim milk
and 80 cents per quart for cream, cot
tage cheese compares favorably with
meats at II cents per pound
