JUNE STEEL ORDERS
GAIN "a PER CENT

All the gossip of the steel trade con-
tinues more optimistic than for some
time past. The new business received
by the United States Steel corporation
last week is said to have been at the
rate of 10000 tons a day, which COM
pares with 24,00 tons daily in May
These figures, If accurate, denote a
gain of "a per cent. Orders are on the
increase, steel men say, and this week
is expected to show further material
increase. July 1 is the date which
manufacturers believe will. mark the
beginning of fairly large contracts
from the railroads. since by that time
the crop prospects Will be more def
nitely known. All the Brown Bonnell
works of the Republic Iron & Steel Co.

ORE BOAT ARRIVES.

Indiana Harbor, June 20. The ore
boat Martin Muellen, which pulled up
in the outer harbor Sunday afternoon.
and after dropping anchor began to
whistle for a tug. This gave rise to
the conjecture that the boat was
grounded on a sandbar and a report to
that effect was current.
This was not the case, however. The
sea was considerable at the time and
the captain of the Martin Muellen did
not care to take a chance on entering
the harbor without help. so dropped
anchor and whistled for assistance.
The ore boat was laden with 1000
tons of ore.
On Saturday the government light
house boat Dearborn was out in the
harbor and dropped markers where it
is expected to place range stakes and
gas buoys. AS soon the latter are
established 1t will be possible for ore
boats to come into the harbor at night.
The gas buoys are loaded to last for six
months, at the expiration of which
time they are recharged with gas for
another six months.

peace is possible in Mexico unless
 the aged president does resign. He
 has promoted the welfare and pros-
 presity of his country. His methods
 have not, however, been republican.
 The people are in revolt against ex- isting evils and an autocracy in which the mass of the people have no voice whatever. All elections are delusive and under such conditions numerous intolerable ills of government have sprung up. The people are unduly burdened and oppressed. The weak and humble are the victims of graft CTS, and the land has become filled with discontent. All feel that Diaz has outlived his usefulness and that he should resign in order to bring in younger and more progressive leader who would carry out needful reforms.
 On General Diaz's action depends, therefore, peace or war in Mexico. What he will do after peace has come seems to be well assured. What he will do immediately in order to se- cure peace is problematical. No one can say as to that. The best chance for peace lies in the disturbed condi- tions throughout the entire republic in the south as well as in the north. These conditions may bring at any time assurances from President Diaz that would usher in peace speedily. short of an resignation or its equivalent will bring peace under present disturbed conditions.

-"'----------------- SEEK HEALTH IN GERMANY

From the Washington Post
 Americans are going in greater numbers every year to take the baths at Bad Nauheim, Carlsbad. and other German health resorts This is the statement of Dr. D. Avery Newton, an American phy- sician, who for four years has been prac- ticing six months in the year at Bad Nauheim. Dr. Newtons home is in Ore gon, and he is completing a trip around the world He will sail from New York for Europe in a few days.
 Bad Nauheim is a place of 5000 people during the summer season. said Dr. Newton at the Willard. 'In the winter it has only few residents, but about this time the people begin to go there for their health and they gather from all parts of the earth. The American colony at Bad Nauheim numbers probably 4060 every summer. There Is no other health resort in Europe, except probably Carls- bad, that is so popular with Americans
 That the baths of Bad Nauheim, which is not far from Franllfort- Main, are exceedingly beneficial for all forms of heart trouble has never been ques- toned Many persons have had their lives prolonged for years by taking the baths there. It is very pleasant place in the summer. with an even temperature, and Is located above the fiftieth parallel.

From the Washington Post.
 The resignation of Dr. Charles G. Pease from the International Art society, for reasons good and sufficient to himself, has had its effect, although evidently not altogether such as the good doctor might have anticipated The root of of- ferse with Dr. Phase was the rcital of James Whitcomb Riley's poem, An Old Sweetheart of Mine" in which there is a reference to tobacco. And now, by way of adding insult to injury, the poem has been spoke" again at a meeting of the Junior International Art society, by a 12- year-old child and in the presence of an audience composed largely of the children of the senior members.
 Good, earnest, honest, well-meaning
 Dr. Pease! Under the horrid circum-
 stances there was apparently TO other
 course open for you than to resign. Com
 fort may be found in the reflection that it was all for the best-best for you and best for the society. Even if they do not

FEATS OF OLD TOPERS

Claudius was noted for the rare wines he served. He often had 600 guests at his table. Like Tiberius he died from eating the wrong kind of mushrooms.
 Caligula owes his niche in the hall of fame to the drunken banquets with which he made even Rome marvel. The ex- oesses made fashionable by such poten- tates as Lucullus, Nero, Verres, Tiberius, Calgula, Vitellius and Domitian really began in the days of Pompey, and they mark the beginning of the end of the re- public.
 At the .feasts of these rulers the ann phorae-enormous vases, some with a ca pacity of many barrels-were filled with wine. Even the fountains flowed with wine, which was dipped up by youthful servants and handed to the guests, while young girls sang and danced.
 Of the many feasts given by vitellius, not one cost less than $500, and his reign was almost continuous debauch. Com modus was notorious drunkard, and Septimus was not much better Several died of overindulgence in the flowing bowl aeF
 It was famous sport to see a guest drink cup of wine for every letter in the name of his mistress.

Stop-Over Tickets in the South


 The railroads are not dealing justly with this section of the country While they grant stop-over privileges freely in the east and the west im- portant railroad cities and centers in the south cannot secure the privilege. This subject is to be considered at conference of southern commercial and civic bodies in New Orleans in August next, and Birmingham should be we'll represented in that confer ence.
 No city in the south would be more benefited by stop-over privileges than Birmingham would be. Nearly all who hold through tickets would be glad to see the great industries located here, but this city has not thus far been able to secure stop-over privileges. Cities of less size and im- portance in other parts of the coun- try have no difficulty in securing such privileges, and the railroads should be asked to deal fairly with southern cities. The present discrim- ination is unjust, and it is hoped by a general effort to induce southern railroads to act justly toward the cities whose growth promotes their own business.
 The matter is one of general con cern and importance, and our com- mercial organizations should pro- mote the New Orleans conference to the utmost, for this city is one of the greatest sufferers through a denial by the railroads of stop-over privi- leges.
