AS wholesale shoe market, Rich
mond stands very high up on the list
OF such markets in this country, prob
bly, sixth or seventh Lynchburg
stands perhaps a little higher than
Richmond because Lynchburg manu-
factures so many shoes. l have never
been able TO understand why Rich
mond should not manufacture all the
shoes and all kinds OF shoes its Job
bers need 10 handle. Maybe It will
some day, when the State of Virginia
with lis penitentiary labor goes out
OF the shoemaking business. William
T. Curtis. in a most interesting letter
in the Chicago Record Herald, gives
some shoemaking statistics. He fig
ures out that the little city of Brock
ton. fifteen miles south of Boston. pro-
duces more than 10 per cent. and prob
ably Il per cent, OF all the boots and
shoes made in the United States, with
an aggregate value of S37,50O,00O n
year. Lynn which has been the boot
and shoe capital for $50 years, lost its
coronet in 1900. and has since held the
second place. 1t still makes from S25,-
100000 TO S30,O00.000 worth of shoes,
perhaps per cent or more of the to-
tai for the whole country. Lynn is
being very closely pushed by St Louis,
and 1t is question II the Western city
will not soon be entitled to second
place. 1t had an annual output OF
more than S25.0o0.000 at the latest re-
turns. and jumped from the ninth place
in 1880 TO the third place in 1905
among the shoemaking centres. ST.
Louis increased its output from 1900
to 1905 more than 1870 per cent, while
Brockton increased Bis per cent. and
Lynn 81 per cent
With I'm Surpo focnIt;on e.,
distributing goods all over the coun :
try and all over the world Richmond
ought to get into the shoemaking
business.

Many people nowadays consider the
perils OF the sea to be due to the sea
alone. The time Of piracy-being
wrecked on shore and falling into
the hands Of savages or being eaten
by cannibals- is supposed now to be
long to the past. This is not the case.
There are pirates today on the coast
OF China and on the Malay archipele-
go, and as for falling into the hands
OF savages, and that within twelve
months past, have such a story to
tell myself.
l was second officer of the American
tramp steamer Evelyn Hope. We
were running along the coast Of Brit
ish East Africa, giving the shore as
we thought wide berth, beaten by
high wind and seas off the Indian
ocean.
1t was very early in the morning
that the wind suddenly ceased. And
it was lucky that it did so, for om
bow ran upon coral and sand beach.
We tried to back off, but our engines
were not strong enough, and we were
obliged to wait for daylight in order
to see where we were and adopt more
strenuous means for getting free.
When the dawn came we found our
selves on the shore Of an uninhab ited
island. We at once set about cutting
our kedge anchors and making other
preparations to pull us off. l was OF
dered to go ashore with a crew of six
men and try for some game that we
might have fresh meat We found
plenty of wild animals and birds on
the island and were fast getting sup
ply of both When we heard a shout
from the man we had left on the
shore with the boat. Hurrying to the

beach. we saw five large canoes, each
containing some forty negroes, pulling
toward the Evelyn Hope.
OF course we got into our boat at
once and raced with the blacks for the
vessel. When they saw that we would
reach it before them they lay on their
oars and contented themselves with OBJ
serving our movements.
They watched us all the afternoon,
and our captain concluded that they
were waiting for the darkness, when
they would attack us, and If they cap
tured our ship we would all doubtless
be murdered. We secured the vessel
for arms, and ali we found was shot
gun, rifle and two revolvers. We
had a dozen white seamen aboard and
q mixture Of copper colored men, most
ly Malays. Late in the afternoon the
blacks sent boat toward us, prob
ably to draw our fire and discover how
strong we were. At the sight OF the
negro warriors our Asiatics hOwled so
with fright that the captain ordered
them all below. We did not crafty
the blacks by firing at them.
Our chance for our lives looked very
small. Our armament wouldn't afford
a weapon each to our white crew. As
for the rest, they were not worth arm
ing. Suddenly / thought of weapon
that would serve us better than pow
der and ball. We had plenty OF hose
aboard. and it occurred to me to couple
it to the boilers and fight the blacks
with steam.
What frightened our men was that
some of them remembered that sew
eral years ago French ship had gone
ashore on this or another island on
this very part of the coast and the
natives had massacred all on board.
The outlook with a couple Of hundred
black devils waiting for night to come
to treat us the same way was, to say
the least, not reassuring. especially
since our principal weapon was steam.
We calculated that it would be high
tide about O'clock In the evening. II
we weren't captured before that there
was a possibility of our sliding off into
deep water Once free we could put
on steam and sail away without mo-
HESITATION. But the blacks knew this
as well as we and were not likely to
delay their attack till the tide helped
us of.
Fortunately the weather, which had
been thick when we struck and con-
tinued thick, cleared at sunset, and
there was three-quarter moon In the
east.
We had counted on this to help US
even more than the tide, for with Its
light we could see our enemies. With
out it they could climb to our decks

State News From Exchanges

Tony Lyden, known $ "LuniDg Red" in the different mining
camps where he had worked, is dead at Tuscon, Arizona, where
he went to recover his health. 1t is stated that he died from the
effects of treatment received at the hands of a mob in Nina a num-
Der of months age. At that time lie was tarred and feathered and
then driven acros the desert naked with the exception of the tar
and feathers He nearly died at the time.
After paying the expenses of his sweetheart, Miss Dedanovich,
all the way from the old country to Goldfeld and purchasing her
a fine trousseau, Tripo Susich, a Slavonian of Tonopah, learned
from the mouth of the girl he loved, that she no longer loved him.
She desired to keep her trousseau and had no money to pay back what
he had expended on her, and therefore he called in the police
After a threatened suit on his part for breach of promise she gave
him her note for sS5, payable in three months.
The Belmont Mining Company of Tonopah has made a settle
ment with three of the widows of the victims Of the recent Belmont
disaster. These women, Mrs. Clarence David, Mrs. George Dondero
and Mrs. Michel Hannigan, have received substantial sums from the
company for the death of their husbands, and will not sue the COM
pany. Several other settlements are being negotiated, and it is the
belief that every widow of a miner will receive something from the
company. 1t is reported that each family has been paid $4,000.
In order to satisfy a grudge they had held for some time, five men
early this week attacked Samuel Davis, a former Deputy Sheriff of
Cherry Greek, White Pine County, on a lonely road between Cherry
Creek and Long Valley, and nearly killed him. After knocking
him down, William Gray, one of the party, searched him and
found he had no gun. The other men then joined him and Davis
was given a fearful beating. He was left lying helpless by the
side of the road, but soon recovered sufficiently to go to Cherry
Creek and swear to complaints. The arrest of William Gray,
Richard Walker, Ivan Walker, J. Walker and Richard Walker fol-
lowed. 1t is claimed by Davis that the Walker family had long
held a grudge against him and that they took this opportunity of
getting even.
By an order of Jim May, former proprietor of the once famous
Palace gambling house in Reno, Moana Springs, the resort south Of
Reno, where j. J. Jefries trained for his fight with Jack johnson,
has been closed. The large tanks have been drained of the hot
artesian water, the barroom and restaurant have been closed and
all the help has been discharged. The interurban railroad, unable
to run without Moana Springs as an attraction, has also closed
down. Jim May says that the place closed down because he OBJ
iected to it being kept open without a profit Others say that it
was closed down for the purpose Of forcing the stockholders of the
Nevada Interurban to sell their stock in the road to the Moana Com
pany. About $4,000 had been spent on the resort and it was one
of the finest for its size in the West
