Talk

Natural talk, like plowing, should
turn up a large surface of life, rather
than dig mines into geological strata.
Masses of experience, anecdote, Incl
dent. cross-lights, quotation, historical
instances, the whole flotsam and
ietsam of two minds, forced in and
in upon the matter in hand from every
point Of the compass, and from every
degree of mental elevation and abase-
ment-these are the material with
which talk is fortified, the food on
which the takers thrive. Such argu-
ment as is proper to the exercise
should still be brief and seizing. Talk
should proceed by instances, by the
apposite, not the expository. It should
be kept close along the lines Of hui
manity. near the bosoms and busi-
nesses of men, at the level where his.
tory, fiction, and experience intersect
and illuminate each other.-Robert

CONSULAR REPORT
ON CUBAN SUGAR

Writing under date OF September
10, Deputy Consul General Henry 2.
Starrett, of Havana reports the out
look for the sugar crop, indicating
that at that time the crop would
probably be short over 400, 700 long
tons from the previ us one, which
amounted to 100000 tons. 1t will
be noted that the prediction for next
years crop is for one equal to last
years, The summarized report fol
lows:
"The production of cane sugar in
Cuba for the crop year ending Sep
tember 1911, has reached a total Of
1,45S,794 tons (2,24G pounds), with
one mill in Puerto Padre still grind
ing at the rate of about 46S tons per
week. AS this mill will probably not
continue to grind longer than two
weeks more, it means that the Cuban
raw sugar output for the year 1910
II will reach approximately 1,459, $50
tremely high for the last few months,
eliminating in an offer last week of
reales, or about Az cents, a pound.
This is the highest price at which
sugar has sold in many years, but it
was due to local causes entirely, the
stock for local consumption having
become depleted, and there being a
quick demand for the use of the local
refineries, the latter were compelled
to offer this abnormal prices in order
to secure raw material to meet their
needs.
"The outlook for the coming crop
is exceedingly encouraging at this
time. The copious rains and fine
weather have given the young plants
good start, and nearly all cane
fields appear to be N prime conli
ton. This year Of high prices and
good crop return has given the
Cuban sugar business an impetus IL
the way of new mills and new areas
in cane that within the next two
years will have its effect on the tota
crop output in showing a greatly in
creased production.
ut seems to be considered a fail
prediction that the Cuban sugar out
put for the crop of 1911-12, providins
average weather conditions exist, will
reach approximately 100000 tons
and there seems to be now no reaso,
why the average price of next years
crop will not be as high or highe
than this years prices.

RECORD SHIPMENT
OF RAW SUGAR

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 29.-The
largest shipment of foreign sugar ever
received in California entered San
Francisco bay this morning. 1t was
sent from the East Indies to the Am
erican Trading Company on the Nor
wegian steamer August. The sugar
was imported in the interests of the
American-Hawaiian Sugar Refining
company. An official of the Califor-
nia-Hawaiian company said:
. "The price of sugar in the local
market will not be affected. The i'm
port is for the use of fruit Gamers
who cannot get Hawaiian sugar in ex-
change for canned goods exported and
on that account want foreign sugar"
The value of the sugar is $1,OOOOOO
duty paid. The tariff on the import is
100000.

EDUCATORS NIGHT.

Educators Night at the Y. NJ. c.
A. Saturday evening was carried out
with fitting appropriateness as the
closing of the housewarning week.
Willis T. Pope, superintendent of edu-
cation, presided.
A. e. Larimer told in a concise man
ner of the work tn Y. NJ. c. A. was
doing, and then outlined the plans that
the association has for next year, be-
ginning in January. Competent in
structors in such branches as the
building trade, operation of autOmo-
biles, ETC., will be employed and tuition
in the other vocations, such as short
hand and typewriting and bookkeeping
will be kept up
President Gilmore of the College of
Hawaii pointed out the great necessity
for bringing the educational system up
to date. He pointed out that many
changes had taken place in the civic,
social and industriaI life, during the
past hundred years, but very little
change had taken place in the meth.

He endorsed the proposal outlined
by Mr.. Larimer for increasing knowl

mentary grade, and only about ten pc

NlPA TREE SUGAR SUPERIOR.

That there is a possible, not to say
a probable chance, that the business
of making sugar in the Philippine Is
lands may be entirely revolutionized,
is the opinion of DR.. H. d. Gibbs, Blu
reau of Science, who has gone into
the question in the most complete
manner, and who has demonstrated alb
solutely that better sugar can be pro-
duced from the sap of nipa trees than
has ever gone out of these islands up
to date. Samples which he has treat
ed in his laboratory show very plainly
that the clear white product polarized
at 96.S per cent, a gain of per cent
over the highest exported, which he
has succeeded in producing, is far
above the customary commercial
product.

POOR PLACE
FOR AMERICANS

Consul General Amos p. Wilder. Of
Shanghai has sent out warning to
Americans who are contemplating go
ing to Shanghai in hope of securing
employment DR.. Wilder says;
Several years ago the American
consuls in China cautioned young men
and women in the United States
against coming hither with the hope of
securing clerical or stenographic po-
sitions. Inquiries are again being re-
ceieved as to such openings, and it is
well to repeat the caution.
"The custom of foreign firms here is
to fill all important and well-paid po-
sitions with persons whom they bring
out under contract, so that a person
arriving without such document
stands little chance Of securing posi-
lions that pay living wages. Minor
situations are filled by clerks, stenog-
raphers and typists who live in Shang-
hal, at salaries ranging from $25 to
SIS United States currency per month.
The cost of living here is not less
than in the states and the climate is
not uniformly suitable to foreigners.
My advice to those looking for posi-
tions here is not to start for China
under any circumstances without a
good contract with a reliable firm al
ready signed and in his possession be-
fore leaving home.
