While he United States is still the
greatest coffee drinking country in the
world, so far as aggregate consumption
Is concerned, We are now consuming
one-fffth less than ten years ago. OF the
2.5OOOOO,OO pounds Of coffee that figure
in International commerce, the United
States takes more than one-third. We
consume half as much as all Europe. Yet
where our imports in 1902 amounted to
1,O01 million pounds, this year they will
not much exceed 500 millions. This de-
cline in consumption has been coincident
with rising import prices. Nine years
ago coffee averaged, when imported, 81
cents a pound. BY 1910. thanks to the
Brazilian government squeeze which has
limited the expectation OF coffee to q
tenth of the production, it has risen to
8 cents, in 1911 to 10 cents and now to
consumption OF coffee per capita had
shrunk from 1894 pounds to 9h last year.
and probably less now.
1t might be hastily concluded that the
coincidence between the drop of one-hfth
in the consumption and the jump to
double the import price was explanatory,
but is 1t? The Increased prices must GER
tainly have borne hardly upon cOnsum-
ers, but In most cases probably the ad-
justment has been by buying an inferior
grade at the old price. Whether this has
led to less drinking is a question. But
within the period cited there has been a
marked increase in the use OF other bev-
erags. Cocoa. which in 1871 was only
imported to the extent Of 100000 pounds
has now reached 140,cOOOOO Every one
must have noticed, too, the increasing use
of tea in this country. Judging. from the
figures the Brazilian monopohsts seem
to have selected a very bad time to try
and squeeze the American consumer.

Advance in Coal Prices.

To rhe Editor Of The Star:
In q recent editorial you called atten-
ton to the fact that the price of coal had
been raised % cents per ton, and attributed
1t to the recent increase in wages of the
miners. AS the miners received IS cents
ton for coal delivered at the mouth of
the mine, and paid out of that for powder
and oil, making the net wages about SO
cents per ton. and as the increase
amounted to between and 10 per cent,
or only 3 to cents per ton, why Is an
increase Of % cents per ton to be justi-
fed on the ground of increased cost of
production? In view of the fact that coal
that now costs about so cents per ton at
the mine mouth sells to the consumer
for $3.50 per ton. such an attempt at
justification is absurd. AS matter of
fact, cost Of production has nothing to
do with the price, because the price is
fixed on the basis Of "all that the traffic
will bear" the coal trust being able to
do this because it owns substantially the
whole coal field and is able to and does
limit production and can. therefore, fix
the price at any figure they see fit. Re
lief from trust extortions will never be
secured until public demand for an
actual remedyNis made. and all members
of Congress. regardless of party. are
held responsible for existing conditions.

LOVE AND ADVENTURE.
Stalking Dishonest Sheriff on Plains
of Great Southwest

Stalking the Sheriff. is the name of a
cracking good western story, which is
made the leader in our next Sunday
Magazine. 1t is a typical tale of the
great southwest. written by Bailey Mil
lard, who is a westerner by birth and
living and preference, and knows all
about the subject. The sheriff was In love
with charming western girl who lived
in the neighborhood, but it happened
that a fine strapping chap was also enam-
Ored Of Pearl. and seemed to have the in
side track. The sheriff's opportunity came
when this young man got into sort of
brawl, which resulted in the sudden
death Of one Of the party. The rival was
the obvious victim, and the sheriff was
Quick-witted enough to embrace the op-
portunity to get him out Of the way.
So the latter. through lot of testi-
mony, real and cooked up, was put into
prison for a long sentence. But finally
he was able to escape-and then began
the stalking of the dishonest sheriff.
What makes the situation unusually in
teresting is that Pearl would not permit
her real lover to do any Strengthening.
How everything came out properly ac-
cording to Sunday Magazine standards is
what gives the tale it's real drama, and
makes 1t worthy Of first place i'm our next
Issue.

HEIRESS OF II ELOPES
WITH A TAXICAB DRIVER
Brides Aunt Faints at Phone When
Told-Plot to Ship Her to
Europe Fooled.

ATLANTIC CITY, May 31-Mary Nc
Laughlin. a seventeen-year-old heiress,
mysteriously vanished from the cottage
Of her aunt, Mrs. Robert j. Byron of No.
3 North Chelsea avenue Saturday last
Miss McLaughlin's parents died sew
eral years ago, leaving a large estate in
trust for her. The Byrons also have
wealth. The girls disappearance was not
made public. Her relatives engaged
detectives and made a quiet but futile
search for the girl. Yesterday morning
the phone at the Byron cottage rang.
Mrs. Byron answered it.
rs this you, auntie," asked a voice.
This Is Mary. l have been married. To
whom? Why, to Edward Newman. What?
Oh. he drives a taxicab here
Mrs. Byron tainted. When she had
been revived she told her family the
news.
The heiress and the taxicab driver
were married by Judge E. A. Higbee.
They have taken rooms in the Marburg,
an exclusive apartment house here. New
man Is twenty-four years old. He said
last night that some Of his brides rela-
tives tried to have him arrested In order
to spirit the girl away to Europe till the
marriage could be annulled.
They based their charges, he declares,
on the pawning Of one of the girls valu-
able rings, on the proceeds of which, 1t
is said, the pair are now living. The al
legged plan to have him taken into custody
failed. Newman says, as his wife refused
to leave him and Newman says he proved
that she had pledged the ring voluntarily.
The couple seem blissfully happy.
Last evening Mrs. Byron said: 81 do
not know the young man whom Mary
has married. l never even heard Of him.
Naturally l was greatly shocked to learn
Of the affair. l suppose they are happy.
That is their business"
Mrs. Byron seemed deeply affected at
her niece's elopement and her voice
broke several times. She was asked If
she had forgiven her niece and ward.
Il have certainly not--yet." she said.

"Feminism. "
From the Chicago Journal.

From the chicago JotHnal.
German critic declares that our school
system suffers from lack of man teach
ers In the upper grades. This is true
He goes on to say that the result Of this
lack of man teachers is the development
of "feministic" ideals, as distinguished
from manly ones.
This is possibly true. We do not re-
member to have noted that American
men and boys are particularly "femin-
lied" Possibly the ball parks offset the
schools: or possibly our German critic
has exaggerated the 'feminizing'' effect
of woman teachers.
At any rate, dueling has not been
raised to the rank Of q religion in our
educational institutions; and no American
president, trained in our public schools.
has ever eulogized that code OF honor"
which consists in numbering your antag-
onist by rule.
'Feminism'' may have it's compensa-

A Small Public Library.
From the Wide World.

From the Wide World.
curious little building Is situated at
Pinebluff, N. C.. and is believed to be
the smallest public library in the world.
Pinebluf Is only small place, with q
population of fewer than 100 in summer.
and when the ladies OF the village de-
cided that they ought to have a public
library they found themselves without a
building suitable for the purpose. Final
ly, gentleman offered them q band
stand which he had built In the hope
that Pinebluff would soon become a city,
and the offer was accepted with thanks.
BY giving entertainments and SO on, the
ladies were able to raise funds to pur-
chase materials to fill in the openings OF
the bandstand, and generally fit it up into
snug little building. Over 500 books
have been given and the tiny library, Of
which Pinebluff is very proud, is now in
full working order.

Senate Increases the Amount Car
ried to $165. 1872. 500.

The Senate celebrated Memorial day by
passing the annual pension appropriation
bill after fifteen minutes consideration.
The measure carried $165. 162 500. an in
crease of almost STA, 100000 over the
amount appropriated by the House. The
increase includes 81. SOC. 600 for expenses
caused by the heavy volume of work
growing out of the recent enactment Of
the so-called dollar-a-day pension law.
The bill retained the present eighteen
pension agencies, distributed throughout
the country, for whose consolidation into
one agency the House had provided. 1t
also provided for the payment of pensions
by checks to the veterans instead OF by
vouchers The bill goes to conference
between the two houses.
