BIG STOCK SHOW IN TEXAS.

Fort Worth Tex, March 1S.-Fifty
thousand visitors from all over the
United States and Mexico are expect
ed here during the week to inspect
the gerat National Feeders and Breed
ers Show, opened today in the Coli
scum. Today's exhibition of fat stock
is the sixteenth to be held here and is
by all odds the biggest of its kind
Nearly all of the business houses OF
Fort Worth declared a general holiday
today so that their employees might
visit the show,
About $4,000 win be paid out in
prizes to the stockmen exhibiting at
the show. The liberal prizes
offered and the spirit of COM
petition engineered by the Nation
al Feeders and Breeders Show during
the last sixteen years have resulted in
a great improvement in breeds
throughout the Southwest and Mexico
Great herds of sleek, fine cattle have
taken the place Of the lean and hungry
long-horns. Improved breeds of hogs
have also succeeded the razorbacks
once prevalent. The sheep raised in
Texas today are vastly different from
those Of fifteen or twenty years ago,
and big draft horses are now
drawing the loads of the southwestern
farmers, instead of the little Indian
"cayuse." Land, agricultural products
and poultry shows will also be held
during the week in connection with
the stock show.

Secretary and his party personally

In Costa RIGA there has been a very
general belief that the United States
is determined to bring about a union
of Central American republics. This
s net admitted officially but one can
not talk with the average citizen for
five minutes without receiving this
impression.
In private interview for the press,

the effect of this sentiment on the
relations of Costa RIGA and the Uni

his own views on the subject of a

THE MAN WITH A TRADE.

Ed w. Carpenter, manager of the
National Employment exchange, said
I'm recent interview that New York
Is ovyerrun with young men seeking
clerical positions.
Probably the same thing is true in a
greater degree or less of every COM
munlty i'm the land; certainly ii is true
of every large community.
And yet some people wonder that
the average pay in positions of that
character is so small.
Mr.. Carpenter says that as con-
sequence of this perennial surplus the
rate Of wages is so, low that some firms
pay as little as IS week for clerks,
seldom more than $40. Then he adds.
"The kid glove jobs are overrun. but
not enough men can be found for the
trades. Yet the average trade worker
is better off in health and money than
the average clerk" He intimates that
the cause OF this condition OF affairs
Is the desire of the average young AM

Commenting on this interview the
New York World says that such young
men would find it hard to get am

largely due to the fact that the trades
unions restrict their membership un-
duly, and will not let men not menu
bers of their unions work with them.

we should have drawn from Mr.. Car
penter's interview.

boys and young men, to parents and to
those who have charge of the school

There can be no question whatever
that the boy who learns trade Is

of school fitted for no particular oc-
cupation. and untitled to a large extent
