The UnweIcome Throne.

Kathlyn sensed great loneliness
when, about month later, she arrived
at the basin in Calcutta. A thousand
or more natives were bathing ceremo
niously In the ghat-men. women, and
children. 1t was early morn, and they
were making solemn genufexions to-
ward the bright sun. The water front
swarmed with brown bodies, and great
wheeled carts drawn by sad-eyed bull
locks threaded slowly through the
maze. The many white turbans, stir.
ring hither and thither, reminded her
of field of white peoples in breeze
India! There it lay, ready for her
eager feet. Always had she dreamed
about 1t. and romanced over it, and
sought 1t on the wings Of her spirit
Yonder 1t lay, ancient as China. en-
chanting as stored Persia.
II only she were on pleasure bent
II only she knew some one in thi'
great teeming city! She knew no one
she carried no letters Of introduction
no letters Of credit. nothing but tn

BURNING LESS WEALTH

h six months out Of the first seven this year the fire losses in the United states fell below the figures for the corresponding months of 1914. From January to July. both included, the total de st,uctIon of property by fire was about $5S,OOO,OOO less than it was in the like part of last year. The rate of saving was 25 per cent.
 This is a change as gratifying as 1t is remarkable It is too great to be explained by frequent rains and the less tntlammable state of build ings and other property exposed to the weather. It cannot be account ed for by diminished activity in business and industry and lessened use of manufacturing establish merts. It seems a fair and safe in- ference that important progress is being made in the long campaign Of education which has been car rfeJ On against the fire waste which has always been a great burden to American trade and to the produe- tive interests of the country.
 It is well assured that this gain will be continued far beyond the umr o. recent improvement. There will be years of exceptionally heavy losses but they will not prevent gradual progress toward conditions which will cut the fire losses ot the Uai:ed states down to less than half of the average for the vast quarter of century. That saving will mean at least $1oO,o0o,ooo a year CT Sl,000,o00.ooO in decade.

NOT ALL IN AMERICA

By TO means all of the war-made muIiouatrcs are in this country, and not all of them are the bone tictaries of traffic in munitions of war OF spectators in war stock, says the Cleveland Leader War conditions have made many manufacturers, merchants, vessel owners, contractors and others rich in the neutral countries of Europe and also in belIigereut states.
 saipowners have been looked upon as the victims of many hard ships, but they have reaped enor- nous profits when they have es- caped losses and most of the vessels sent to the bottom of the Sea have been well insured. The returns from some recent cargoes have been almost beyond beliet. Official re- ports from American consuls in Holland, Norway and Denmark show that it has been possible to pay for ships in two Or three yoy- ages. So large a company as the one which owns the Holland-Amsri- can line steamships is known to have made net earnings of about so per cent in the first haIl of the pres ent year. It will undoubtedly clear much more than 100 per cent be- for the year ends.
 Such conditions account for the strong demand for new ships. They explain recent sales Of lake vessels for use on the Atlantic. It requires no further information to under stand the filling Up of shipyards along the Atlantic coast with orders from impatient capitalists eager to get the vessels contracted for into service.
 What has happened in shipping has taken place, in greater or less decree, in other fields. Manufac- turing concerns which had difficulty in selling enough of their products 10 keep the wheels turning have been rushed with orders for cloth

Ship Yards Are Booming.

The most remarkable change since the time of the Napoleonic war has come suddenly in the American ship building industry. The last day of December, 1914, closed one of the poorest years the American ship yards have had in decade. Today every ship building concern from Bath Me, down to Newport News, in Virginia, is working to it's fullest capacity, says the New republic.
 One of the largest companies has orders sufficient to keep 5000 men employed full time for two to three years. Contracts have been closed for forty eight ocean vessels, and negotiations are pending for sixty more. Prices have been advanced 15 per cent, although that fact is not significant. A British com- pany has placed an order for the building of two ships in an American yard, thing never heard of before, and is likely to order more.
 Apparently the American mer- chant marine has entered upon another period of expansion. The ship ordered and those for which marine architecture are BOW drawing plans embrace not only passenger vessels for coastwise trade, but freighters for the Pacific and South American ser. vice, big cargo carriers for the transatlantic business and oil tankers to go anywhere and everywhere.

Risks Neck Breaking
 JaIl, Then Aquitted.

Stectators in Circuit Court at Warren wondered if Jim Civ ems did not feel slightly foolish when jury brought in a verdct acquitting of assault with intent to kill. For Jim risked his neck escaping from jail, risked his skin by trying to outrun Sheriff Colvin's, six shooter in hand, and wore out lot of perfectly good shoes lether trying to elude the officers. All of which was made doubly useless by the jury's verdict.
 Givens and Hill M cKinney quarreled at a country party in Febuary, 1914. While they were returning h home Mckinney charged that Givens stopped him and fired two shots. One in. fiicting a severe wound. Civ ems said he was forced to shoot in elf-defence.
 GivenS was arrested and plac. ed in jail. One night he forced the door of his cell with a broom handle tearing the casing from window in the corridor, he secur. ed a window weight which he used to tear a hole in the wall. He made a rope of blankets and lowered himself to the ground and fled.
 Sheriff Colvin secured the country but could not find the fugative. One day while the sheriff was riding on a train, he espied the familiar figure of Givens trudging beside the rail road track. The sheriff left the train at the next stop and await ed arrival of Givens. When Civ ems saw the sheriff he took to his heels, but was finally run down.

Arkansas Production of Coal.

The Geological Survey reports production of 1886, $40 tons of coal in Arkansas for 1914, with value at the mines of s, ,158, 168. This shows decrease from the production in 1913, which is at tributed to falling off in the de- mand for manufacturing pur- purposes, due to demorilization in the cotton industry in the lat ter part of the year, and to the decrease in domestic consump- tion because of mild weather during the winter of 1914. These causes were sufficient to more than offset the slight increase in railroad resulting from the in ability of the Colorado mines, be- cause of strike, to supply fully the demand upon them.
 A favorable aspect of the coal situation in Arkansas was the decrease in the quantity and per- centage Of coal shot off the solid the amount thus mined Tn 1914 being 7S per cent of the total as compared with 79.5 per cent in 1913. The quantity of machine mined coal was 19 per cent of the total, and 3 per cent was undercut by hand.
 Little or TO difficulty was ex- perienced by the Arkansas op- orators in 1914 by reason of droughs or floods, and transpor- tation facilities were satisfactory. Labor condition, however, were less favorable, 1415 men or about one third of the total number employed in the mines of the State being on strike for one cause or another, and the aver age number of working days lost per man was 113. There was a slight decrease in the number of employees and the average working time, but the average quantity of coal produced per man increased from 2.76 tons per day Tn 1913 to 2.96 tons per day in 1913 to 2 96 tons per day in 1914.
 The Bureau of Mines reported II fatal accidents in the coal mines of Arkansas in 1914, as compared with F in 1913.

Have You Named
 Your Farm!

The movement to have every American farmer select a name for his farm and use the name as a trade mark, is meeting with great success in some parts of the country. Many of our ex- changes have published lists of the names selected for the farms of tbeir neighborhoods, the pub llcatlon acting as sort of a pat ent or copyright. It has been said by some minimizing person that the plan is not American, put little reflection will con- vince anyone that the point is not well taken. Washington call ed his home Mt. Vernon" Jeff erson, the great democrat, nam- ed his place Monticello" and any schoolboy can give you a dozen other instances.
 So name your farm and put name out where everyone can see it. Make it Trade Mark. A we'll known, advertised trade mark is worth thousands of dol lars to the owner. Your farm and it's products are your stock in trade. Name them and you have added real hard cash value to everything you sell. Choose a name well suited to surround ings, name that will tell in it's very sound some of the character istics of your business home then come to us and have letterheads made for your correspondence with the. name of your farm on them and your name and your Wife's name and your postoffice address beneath. Here's how your letterheads might read.
