THE MELTING POT.

THE MELTING POT.
Fling them all in the melting pot,
Native and strange to these harbor-
ing shores,
tWhere the scarlet fires are flaming hot
And the noise of the conf1agration
roars.
Foreigners, citizens, gather here,
Drawn by the light and held In
{ thrall;
Moths that out Of the darkness ap-
To answer headlong the fateful call.
And some are lifted out of the ditch,
And some are dragged from the hills
of pride;
THE lowly and noble, poor and rich.
Settling and bubbling side by side
And some bring thrift and brains and
And cast them all in the common
store;
And some bring sloth and the sins
that kill
That into the fusing caldron pour.
ut levels them all like the leveler,
Death,
That brings to one senblarce all
who live;
.And out of the furnace a common
breath
To each that riseth again doth give.
oh, we'll it is for the crawling beast
That is graded up from the slime OF
the town;
But alas for the soaring dreams that
have ceased
In the generous soul that is melted
down.

The output of coke in Colorado in
1913 was 879,4G1 tons, valued at So.
S15,1S according to z. W. Parker, of
the United States Geological Survey.
The decrease as compared with 1912,
amounting to 93,iSO tons in quantity
and S22S,s60 in value, was due en-
tirely to the labor Troubles among the
miners, and not to adverse trade con-
ditions. The principal disturbances
were in Las Animas county, the lead
Ing coal producing and coke making

The Chicago Herald Of July 18th
printed a Waterways Section" which
is wholly devoted to arguments for
the Improvement of means for trans
portation by water between the great
lakes and the Illinois and Mississippi
rivers. According to the Herald s
showing, the one thing lacking to
realize great results in the commerce
OF the great northwest is the rehabih-
tatins of the Illinois and Michigan
canal between Lasalle and Joliet,
length of 63 miles. One writer In
the Herald says when the Panama
canal is opened the readjustment Oh
commercial routes is fully expected
to operate injuriously to the trade Oh
Chicago and the tributary region I'M
less a water route to the gulf Is es-
tablished. The opening Of the 18th
milan artery to the shipping OF the
world will give New York shortened
all-water haul to the regions OF the
Pacific coast The difference In freight
charges. water transportation being
vastly cheaper than that by rail, may
divert some of Chicagos commerce
with the Pacific coast to manutactur-
ing centers on the Atlantic seaooaro
Trade between the Atlantic and Pacl-
fic coast sections will be increased by
the new water route, which may cut
into the trade of the middle west with
the far west, and Chicago Will suner
because it has no outlet to the sea.
Some manufacturers even preolct
that some concerns may move at
least part of their plants to the east
ern seaboard to gain the advantage
of the shortened water haul.
Continuing the Herald writer says:
All this will undoubtedly lead to
a revival of the deep waterway
movement, which was at its
height in 1909 and has been Ian
gushing ever since.
A project to connect Lake Mich
igan and Lake Erie by a barge
canal stretching across Indiana :.
and Ohio. is prominent among the
waterway propositions now re-
ceiying serious attention from the
federal government. The proposal
Is 10 connect SlllCaSo ohu AoA
by waterway of the same dimen-
sions as the new Erie canal. 1t
would have a length Of about 230
miles and would cut about 425
miles off the preesnt water route
between Chicago and the sea-
board. It would make the dis
lance by water between New
York and Chicago approximately
the same as by rail.
Since the construction of the
Chicago sanitary canal the old
Illinois AMI Michigan between
Chicago and the Desplaines river
at Lockport has been abandoned.
A connection has been established
at IIockport and at present there
is actually a water artery between
the lakes and the Mississippi val
ley. For GO miles between Joliet
and I.aSalle, however, the artery
is CONSTRUCTED. The old canal has
filed with silt until it now has a
minimum depth of only four and
a half feet. A movement is now
on foot to scoop out the silt and
restore the canal to its original
six-foot depth and by charging
the locks and aqueducts to put 1t
into shape for navigation by mod
ern barges of the size that can ply

standard materials for making these
garments, but of late, cross-barred
muslin, cotton crepon, dotted swiss

omitted the wreaths may be used on
waists, dresses and children's clothes.
An attractive chemise may be made

four sizes-32, SO, 40 and A. The
drawers, illustrated here, are from
pattern No. Bill. These are cut in
five sizes-22, "a, %. % and 80. Each
of these patterns is ten cents The
seams on these garments should be
