PHELPSDODGE OUTPUT |S
 SMALLER

BOSTON. Jan. 1S.-During 1910 the Phelps, Dodge mines produced IF, ,329.4 .496 pounds of copper, as com pared with 125.2O2,5 ,556 pounds in 1909, a falling of of 7,s73.06O pounds. The decrease represents a curtailment which has been carried on concistent- ly through the year 1910.
 The production of the Douglas Re duction Works amounted to 116,041,- 3i1 pounds, against 10S, ,964 in the preceding year. The S,000,O00 pounds increase here, however, was due en- tirely to the larger tonnage of GUS tom ores treated for against 7,S5S,S1 pounds produced from outside sour ces in 1909, there was 21,49S.5 .56S pounds in 1910. The Morenci Works, handling the output of the Detroit m,ne, however, produced but 22,7S6,- 753 pounds, as compared with 24.51s,- 4O4 in the preceding year.
 The Copper Queen mines contrlbut- SN bO Aue dDOfS NOteiiS tAfooosuJA pounds of copper, as compared with 7s,s69.4O5 in 1909, and Moctezuma yielded 22.659,e51 pounds against 24,- S14,747 in the preceding year.
 The Phelps, Dodge selling agency which markets not only the product of the Douglas and Morenci works, but that Of Calumet & Arizona and Superior & Pittsburg. had for sale In 1910 a grand total of 191 ,O00, 900 pounds. again 1S5.0O00O0 year be- fore. For selling the output of the two last named companies Phelps, Dodge & Co. receive a regular sell ing commission.
 Phelps, Dodge & Co. stands third among the largest sellers of copper in the United States, being exceeded only by the United Metals Selling Co. and the American Smelling & Rein ing Co.
 The management has been very liberal in allowing for depreciation. In 1909, for instance, Copper Queen charged of to plant renewal s1.6S0,- O00, while the Detroit and Moetezuma charged to depreciation sS4O,OO0 and s363.O00, respectively. Even after these allowances, an average cost for the three properties of Sc a pound is believed to be still main tained. Estimating an average price of close to 13c a pound received last year, the company from the opera tions of it's three copper mines must have netted in the neighborhood of $4,7O0,OOO. but this item does not take into consideration comissions received for selling outside copper income from customs business, oI the operations of the big Stag Can yon Fuel O.. which owns valuable coal properties.

Mans face flashed with sudden rage

Take me to my car, Jim. I've an
idea-I'm going to execute it at once
Wouldn't you like to meet the doc
tor and his daughter before you go?"
Thanks, hardly. You know he is on
Mr.. Bivens's black list"
I'D forgotten that" he answered re-
gretfully. I'D like awfully for you to
meet Harriet. I'm sure you'd like her.
Nan smiled.
II could see she likes you. I don't
think she took a fancy to me, how
ever"
Nonsense, Man," he said, with an
noyance. She couldn't have seen you
I didn't know she was here until she
kissed her father"
Perhaps my eyes are keener than
yours"
The captain of the district brushed
rudely past and sprang into his auto
mobile. He waved his hand to his
chauffeur. His gesture was mistaken
By a pair of keen restless eyes for a
command to his reserves to disperse
the crowd.
& A pale, shabby young fellow leaped
past the line of police into the open
space and rushed straight for the re-
serves. His long thin arm was lifted
high in the air clutching black thing
with lighted fuse sparkling from its
crest.
A murmur rippled the crowd, the po-
lice stood still and stared, and the next
moment the bomb exploded in the
boys hand and his body lay on the
stones a mangled heap Of torn flesh and
blood rags.
The police charged the crowd and
dubbed them without mercy. The
people fled in confusion in every direc-
tion. and In five minutes the Square
was cleared.
Stuart had hurried Nan to her car,
and rushed back to the scene Of the
tragedy He readily passed the lines
of the police, who recognized him as
the district attorney.
The doctor reached the spot and
Harriet was holding the dying boys
head in her lap.
Stuart bent over her curiously and
slowly asked:
You were not afraid to rush up
here with your father and take that
poor mangled thing in your arms?"
"Of course not" she replied simply.
Papa says he's dying-nothing can
be done for him. They've sent for an
ambulance"
The doctor stood staring at the dying
boy, and a tear had slowly gathered in
his kindly eye.
He pressed Stuart's arm and spoke
In low tones:
'Tve made some big mistakes in my
life, my boy. I'm just beginning to see
them. I've read a new message in the
fiutter of this poor fellows pulse. I'll
not be slow to heed It."
But Stuart stood watching with
growing wonder Harriet's deft little
hand brush the damp hair back from
the poor disfigured face.

The Last Ditch of the Slave Raider.

When seventeen civilized nations
agreed in the Brussels congress to
work together for the suppression Of
the slave trade the concerted move
ment to wipe 1t out began. Since
then every Arab SLAYER has been
driven out Of the Belgian Congo, their
richest harvest field. Slave trading
has been suppressed in Germany and
British East Africa, in Nyasa Land,
in the two northern divisions of Rho
desia, in the French Congo and in
northern Nigeria. The cloud that
lowered over 70,000,000 Of helpless
natives has been lifted. Till this bet
ter day dawned they did not know
the shouts Of the slave stealers, and
when they went to sleep but they
for every slave that was led to the
marts about seven perished in the at
tack or on the terrible journey.
The French suppressed the slave
trade on all their African coasts in
1848. Among the first to close their
African ports against the expectation
Of slaves, it now devolves upon the
French nation to wipe out the last
vestige of slave raiding in central
Africa. Their territory Of Wadai, in
the central Sudan, is the last strong
hold of this nefarious traffic.
Inc BUSINESS mas SLlll lHTlVcu III
Wadai though everywhere else prac-
tically suppressed. The Arabs and
their native allies have found II very
profitable to cater to the slave mar
kets of Tripoli and the Saharan oases.
The first heavy blow struck at their
trade was when the French, about
three years ago, declared 1t illegal to
transport slaves across their vast do
main In the desert. The risks are
now so great that the business has
become Improbable. The most re-
cent evidence of this fact Is an un-
successful effort Of some Arab slave
merchants to smuggle over a hun
dred negro slave women across the
desert to Tripoli.
But slave raiding is still encourag-
ed by the demand for slaves in the
towns Of Wadai, and the French are
now facing this problem. The coun-
try Is very large and the French
have not yet acquired effective pos
session Of the whole of 1t; but the
day Is not far distant when the Arab
slave power will be rooted out Of its
last stronghold and 'the open sore
of the world" as Livingstone called
it. will be a thing of the past.-New

Dutch Railroads.-In contrast with
the history Of Belgium, Germany,
France and Austria, Holland alone OF
all European countries presents a sit
uation where the railroads require
protection from the competition Of the
canals.
Holland thus reverses the general
rules which apply in all other coun-
tries. Railroad development was re-
markably slow in Holland. The first
Dutch railroads were short local lines
while the waterway system was eXten-
sive and strongly entrenched.
At length, convinced that she could
not keep pace with other European
countries by her waterway system
alone, the Dutch government con-
structed an ambitious line Of railroads
connecting with the international lines
Of Europe.
The railroads were built not with
any expectation that they would be
profitable as investments but because
they were considered absolutely neces-
sary to save the country from Indus
trial decadence. Holland Is the only
country in the world in which the
state has provided both rail and water
highways substantially free of capital
charge The railroads are now operat-
ed at a loss to supplement the water
ways, which carry 80 per cent Of the
traffic of Holland.-Review OF Re-
views.

coNFEoERATEs IN CONGRESS.
They Largely outnumber Statesmen
Who Wore the Blue.


Fifty years after the first guns Of the
civil war sounded the congress Of the
United States is comparatively in con-
troll of the Confederates. II the battle
roll Of the house and senate were called
today it would show more Confederate
veterans in each branch Of congress
than survivors of the armies Of the
blue.
There are veterans of many battles
and survivors Of many trying situa-
tions. In the senate there are six or
these Confederate warriors. Three OF
them, Senator Bacon of Georgia, and
Senators Johnston and Bankhead OF
Alabama, were captains In the south
ern ranks; the others, Senators Martin
of Virginia, Thornton Of louisiana,
and Tillman Of South Carolina, fought
either as privates in the regular army
or as members of cadet corps that
were enrolled for active service.
In the house of representatives there
are eight Confederates, including Brig.
Gen. George w. Gordon Of Tennessee;
Major Charles M. Stedman OF North
Carolina; Capt. John Lamb Of Virginia,
and William Richardson of Alabama.
The other Confederates include Repre-
sentative Talbot Of Maryland; Ruck-
er Of Colorado; Taylor Of Alabama,
and Estopinal Of Louisiana.
The only Confederate general In
congress is Representative George
washington Gordon of Tennessee. AT
the recent Confederate reunion at Lit
tie Rock Ark, Gen. Gordon was
prominent figure. His history Is
striking one. He was captured three
times, dangerously wounded once ana
in every important battle participated
in by the Tennessee troops, and was
finally taken prisoner and removed to
Fort Warren, Mass, where he was
held until three months after the war
was concluded.
Two men in the house Of represen-
tatives-Capt. John Lamb OF Virginia,
and Major Charles M. Stedman OF
North Carolina-were with the 1,2OO
Confederates who fought the battle OF
Bethel, the first battle Of the war, and
were still fighting with the Army OF
Northern Virginia when Lee laid down
his arms at Appomattox, April 8, 1865.
The records show that only twelve
men enjoyed this distinction.
Atterson w. Rucker. now a repre-
sentative from Colorado, went through
trying prison experience as 10
year-old boy. He enlisted from Mis-
souri, with the Confederate forces. He
was with Price at the battle Of Lex
ington, and figured in the long running
fight under Shelby and Marmsduke
from the Missouri river to the south.
Senator Martin of Virginia, like
Senator Johnson, went into the army
as a boy member of q military school
brigade. Senator Martin was 17-years
old and a student at the Virginia MILF
tary institute when he was enrolled
with the students Of that school as
private in the Confederate army. He
served throughout the last year Of the
war until Lee laid down his arms. In

A GENSENG FARM.
Raising the Curious Roots That Sell
For SO a Pound.

Raising the CuTlouS HOOIS NAT Ooli
For So Pound.
Owing to years of systematic hunt
ing for its roots very little genseng re-
mains growing in it's natural state in
the woods, and in order to supply the
demand it has been found necessary
to resort to artificial cultivation.
A correspondent of the Fir News
describes the genseng gardens in Rut-
land county, VT, started six years
ago from wild roots, though the sub
sequent paintings have been from
seeds. The seeds planted In the fall
do not come up until the second year.
The beds were made of sand, we'll
rooteC horse manure, leaf mold and the
like, forming a soft soil such as Is
found about the roots Of trees in the
woods. The soil is mulched each fall
with old leaves. A network Of Stats
is built over the beds to stimulate the
shade of the woods, as frequent SUM-
shine upon the plants invariably kills
them.
BY exercising due care in the prep
aration of the beds the plants thrive
as well as they do in the natural state.
Very few weeds grow among them on
account of the shade, and consequent
ly they need very little attention ex-
cept in case of blight, which occasion
ally attacks the plants and retards
their growth. A spraying of Bor-
deaux mixture is effective in checking
this blight.
The root, which gets its growth in
five or six years, is the genseng of
commerce and is called E:anroot, be-
cause it frequently assumes the form
of q human body. The first frost Of
autumn knocks down the plant and
the matured roots are then dug and
dried ready for market. Ice and snow
have no effect upon the roots &nd
they grow from year to year. The
beds under cultivation are so planted
that one natures each autumn.

The answer was the memory of dir

while a mob of bowling fools surged

The dried roots are worth seven to
eight dollars a pound in this country,
though the Chinese, who consume by
far the larger portion Of genseng pro-
duced pay a much higher price for it.
Genseng thrives best in cold climates,
and is extensively grown in Canada,

Does Love Bear Repetition?

My Dear Miss Poynter:
l am in love with a man 35. He is
a widower with one child. He has asked
me to marry him, but people say a
man can love only once, and know
he loved his first wife. | would rather
give him up now han marry him and
find out that he didn't love me. Please
give me the beneht of your advice, Miss
Poynter. PERPLEXED.
Do you think hat love is like the
o~ld-fashioned notion of the measles;
hurry up and get 1t when you're young
so you car spend the rest of your days
In a and quiet. You are very
foolish to let such narrowing notions
mar the spirit of your dreams. Love
again? Why, certainly, and her some
more If the right type of woman comes
along.
l believe that after the first woman
was made for the first man the rest of
the male creatures had better luck in
that they were given a more or less
free choice. The conditions of modern
society have proved that this 'only
oma In the world for me- is an out
grown theory. Every man has an ideal
