PUTS OUT CRIPPLEs; STRICKEN
IN SAME WAY BROTHERS ARE
Wealthy New Yorker VINO Cast on
SUFFERING kInfoIk Visited BY
Strange Fate.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2s.-The fact
has just been brought to light that
by a strange prank Of fate Arthur J..
Mace, the wealthy manufacturer Of
refrigerators and toys. who refused
to permit his two crippled brothers
to remain longer In his magnificent
williamsbridge home In March, 1909,
now lies In that splendid mansion a
hopeless cripple himself.
A year after his two brothers left
the home Of their dead father and
mother, his back was broken by a
fall, and he now Is paralyzed from the
waist down and entirely dependent for
assistance upon trained nurse, who
is constantly with him.
The two brothers. Henry B. Mace
and Edward II. Mace. have been SUI
ferers from a peculiar nervous trouble
since the ywere boys. IL renders
them practically helpless, and they
are obliged to be constantly attended
by trained nurses.
When they go out they have TO be
wheeled In roller chairs. Their lower
limbs are useless for purposes Of loco
motion. These two brothers, how
ever, have the income from 100000,
so that they are amply able TO main.
tain themselves.

center In the wheat trade. Steam
ship company and railway statistics
show that $4,000 bushels OF wheat
passed Hardin last year, OF which g.
COX, 900 were miiled locally and 1900
900 were exported on the Sungarl
river 10 the Siberian military posts
along the Amur river This 10 the
only important movement Of wheat
in the country, all other stocks being
consumed locally.
Wheat comes into the mills and 10
the rivers and railways from great
distances. In the winter, when the
rough, ungraded roads are frozen
hard and smooth, the natives haul
wheat for 200 miles, In many In.
stances, by q heavy, two-wheeled cart
drawn by four to eight mules. Long
trains Of these carts, travelling to-
gether for protection and companion
ship at night, can be seen on the main
highways all winter and are the most
picturesque feature OF Manchurian
life.
Wheat production 10 carried on by
the most primitive Of methods. more
primitive even than I'm the days Of
the scythe and the cradle In Ameri-
CO; and yet the facility with which
/ the work is carried out IL constant
marvel. Ia many seasons Of the year
the farming communities are sleepy
and apparently lifeless. On all sides
the eye rests on broad. waving fields
OF miilet, sorghum and corn, or wheat
but not o man can be seen tending
the crops. Here and there In a vii
lage sits an old man smoking his long
stemmed pipe, and an occasional
coolie sleeps by the roadside with his
head in the bright sun and the dies
buzzing over his face. No noises, IN
dicating industry and busy people,
arise to disturb the seeming lifeless-
ness of the community. Only an oc-
casionai shriii, scolding squabble
among the housewives shows 1t 10 not
Q deserted village.
But when the busy seasons Of seed
time and harvest come around. the
very earth seems TO open and give
birth TO coolies. The fields are dot
ted with patches Of blue cotton piece
goods scattering and covering seeds,
gee-having oxen and guiding rude
plow, cutting the long stalks OF sorg-
hum with a corn knife, or pulling
wheat out by the roots and shocking
Il IN neatly capped shocks.
At these times the slow-going,
patient coolie works from daylight TO
sunset, and harvest 10 completed in

CANONSBURG, Pa. Aug. 2S.-6un-
ned by the tragedy OF Saturday night
when rs lives were trampled out In
the Morgan Opera house, Canonsburg
Is today preparing to bury her dead.
There was no fire. There was not
even any smoke. There was no rea-
son whatever for alarm. There was
only the blind, unreasoning fear Of a
panic stricken mob. which carried be-
fore 1t and in II, babes In arms, little
children, strong men and frightened
women and piled them in q writhing,
twisting heap on top OF those who
stood below.
Rewards have been offered for the
arrest and conviction Of the person
who cried are" in the opera house.
The police fear that II he 10 caught
he will be dealt with violently. az
threats are heard on all sides.
I'VE do not know who the person IL
who called fire. in the theater," said
Chief OF Police Samuel Swan, today.
We heard It was a young foreign boy
in the gallery and that he did II In Q
joking spirit when the dim broke, but
we cannot certify this"
To prove the Aim did not burn, two
hours after the accident, the reel of
films OF "A Little Child Shall Lead
Them" which started the excitement
was shown to the police and a group
OF newspapermen. The operator
stated the film broke, very frequent
occurrence When II broke he secured
another film which was to be shown
until he had an opportunity OF repair
ing the film. The broken picture, as
well as all the three rolls OF films are
in the possession Of the police. They
have been sealed and will be turned
over 10 the corner.
Grieved by It's great loss. the town
will go into mourning for the whole
Of this week Gaiety OF every form
will be banished from the life OF the
town. The baseball games In the
Church league have been called on for
the remainder of the season.

Ing all the natural advantages Of
climate and regular rainfall 10 insure
bountiful harvests throughout Its en-
tire area. Today the largest crop
Ia the soya bean, and will probably
overshadow any other product for
years to come as the demand IL
steadily increasing and the export
10 Europe and America increasing
yearly. The present annual export
might be placed approximately at
100000 tons Of beans, 100000 tons
OF bean-cake and 10000 tons Of bean
oil, besides the local consumption.
But in the near future, as the wheat
producing and exporting countries
grow In population and the annual In
creased domestic demand exceeds the
increased annual supply to point
where these countries cease to expert
and are later obliged TO import, Man
chur1a, the wheat belt OF Asia, gives
promise of becoming the largest Of
the worlds producing area.
