Electromaqnets.

An electromagnetic consists. essential
~. of core of soft iron surrounded by
many turns of insulated copper wire
through which powerful electric cur
rent is made to flow. When the cur
rent starts flowing the iron instantly
becomes Il magnet, and when the cur
rent is shut off the iron just as instant
~ loses its magnetism. An electrOmag-
net can be made much more powerful
than permanent magnet of steel. and
it is also much more useful. because its
magnetism may be turned on and off
at will. 1t is Indispensable in making
telegraph Instruments, and in recent
years it has become hardly less indiS-
pensable as kind of giant derrick

Old Suorttsh Sanctuary.

The old sanctuary of the abbey and
palace of Holyrood house, to quote the
full description, was an interesting in
stitution The debtor was free from
arrest during the week. On entering
the sanctuary he enrolled himself in a
formal manner and obtained IL room
that is. if he could pay for it. There
was a public house within the bound
aries and it was not uncommon to see
the debtor in the inn playing dominoes
and his creditor standing looking in at
the window with wistful eyes. The
debtor was safe, and he knew it, and
the face of the creditor told the same
tale. Sunday being Il dies non. the
debtor could leave his sanctuary and
visit his family, but he had to be care
full to get back to Hollywood on Sunday
night Sometimes debtor had the
temerity to leave on a week day. but
he did so at his peril.-LOndon Specta

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKETS

LANCASTER, Pa, April 20, 1914

LANCASTER, PA, April 20, 1914.
A lot of Lancaster county tobacco
growers are at present ''Sitting on the
fence" to use fgurative phrase, de-
batting the question of planting tobacco
this year or potatoes or some other
crop. 1t would be safe wager at ten
to one that they decide on the weed.
1t is more uncertain crop from start
to finish than most any other crop, but
as a rule it pays better than anything
else. Last year the estimated acreage
in tobacco was about 10000 acres.
Seventy-five to $4,000 cases is the aver
age production of Lancaster county's
tobacco fields, but it is doubtful wheth-
err the crop of last year yielded over
60, 600 cases. And it may be doubtful
whether so per cent of that may be
classed even as fair. Up to the pres
ent time it is estimated that about go
per cent of the new crop has been sold.
While some localities in the county
have been pretty well stripped of their
crops, there are others which have
hardly been touched by the buyer. AS
the bulk of the growers who still have
their tobacco have decided that there
is no use holding on with the hope of a
raise in prices, and are now taking very
low prices, it may be that before the
crop is closed out even lower prices
than now prevail may be the rule.
The local packers, we are sorry to
say, report no Improvement in trade,
and many of them fear even worse
conditions through the trouble with
Mexico. A case sold now and then is
about the extent of trading being done
by the local men, not one of whom has
reported decent sized sale for weeks.
No hope for anything better is held
out by the condition of the cigar indus
try. If it were any duller the factor
les could not keep open. Some had to
shut down, the small class only, so not
a great many hands are thrown out of
employment. But there are few fac
tories that are going full time and full
handed, and the outlook is not good for
an early improvement. Because of the
stagnated state of trade the cigarmak-
ers are saying nothing about striking.

A Tax Problem.

How rich can a man be in notes
and mortgages and not pay any tax
and how poor can a man be in personal
property and real estate and pay $3.50
tax?
"A has wife and five children and
owns in notes and mortgages S44, 900,
drawing per cent Taking out his
exemptions, he can own in notes and
mortgages S44, 600 and not pay one dol
lar in tax toward the supporting of
schools, building highways or any other
public enterprise.
ION the other hand, B has a wife
and five children to support. He buys
a farm from A of 800 acres at 500 per
acre, which would make $4,000 pay
able to A for the farm, drawing inter-
est at per cent. B pays A 5000
down and puts $4,000 in stock. He is
is now practically worth $1,000. A
holds the mortgage of $50, with a
debt of $25, 900 against the place. A
then receives annually from B S1,25O
for interest. B has to pay $3.50 a year
tax for the building of highways, sup
porting of schools and other public in
situations.
81 may have made some misstate-
ments, but not Intentionally, and If |
have, l hope someone, through the
press, will correct me. Is there any
justice in compelling B to build con-
crete roads for A to JOY ride on or to
pay string of commissioners which
will double his state tax! In justice to
B, repeal the good roads law and cut
off enough state expenses to reduce his
tax one-half. R. w. Theobaid il

Americans Treated Well by the Rebels.

Mrs. j. /. Subey has received let
ter from her brother, Otto BrictsOn,
written from Brownsville, Texas, April
q, in which he states that their father,
|. O. BrictSon, has now recovered from
his long illness at San Antonio, Texas,
where his wife joined him some time
ago. Mr.. BrictsOn contracted severe
cold during a three days exposure to a
heavy rain while driving cattle from
their ranch in the state of Tamaulipas
to Tampico. The cold developed into
bronchitis and his condition, we under
stand, was for a time quite serious.
Mr.. and Mrs. BrictsOn are expected to
arrive here some time next week.
The big ranch owned by Mr.. Brict-
son, containing more than a million
acres, lies on the Gulf of Mexico, some
ninety miles north of Tampico, at
which port was recently marketed the
cattle from the ranch. The section in
which the ranch is located has been
rebel territory for some months and
the Brictsons report having been uni
formly we'll treated by the Constitu-
tiOnalists. In his letter Otto writes
that when he and his elder brother
Louis left the ranch a week before,
there was no anti-American feeling in
northern Mexico, nor had he during his
stay in Brownsville noticed any anti
Mexican sentiment there. With Tam
pico in the hands of the federals, the
Brictsons were at a disadvantage in
marketing their cattle The two Brict:
son brothers expected to return to the
ranch on the 28th, the day after the
letter was written. -Stoughton Cour-

year for the first time and Sallie McAdoo, the little girl of the family.
 Secretary McAdoo is both young in appearance and in temperament. He goes in for all the sports. He rides, plays tennis, and his manner with his sons and daughters is quite like that of a big brother. When he began the past winter to go out with his daughter, Miss Mona, his atten- tions to her and those to Miss Flea nor Wilson seemed just the same to the casual observer. His dancing has been seen in many bathrooms showing proficiency in the art and especially in it's newer forms.
