AppIle,,lon Of Term Creole.

The term Creole Is of uncertain ORR
gin, and has been applied to different
race blends and mixed nationalities.
George w. Cable. native Of Louisiana.
which is sometimes called -the Creole
state" and author of novel entitled.
"Old Creole Days" says: "The term
did not first belong to the descendants
Of Spanish but Of the French settlers.
But such meaning implied a certain
excellence Of origin, and so came early
to include any native Of French or
Spanish descent by either parent,
whose new allegiance with the slave
race entitled him to social rank. Later,
the term was adopted by. not conceded
to. the natives of mixed blood, and Is
still so used among themselves. Be
sides French and Spanish, there are
even, for convenience Of speech, col
ored Creoles but there are no Italiai
or Sicillan. nor any English, Scotch OF
Irish or Yankee Creoles." In the West
Indies and in Mexico the term was APP
piled to whites Of pure Spanish o.
French extraction, but in the United
States 1t was applied also to persons
Of mixed negro blood.

Free Feed for Bowery Buns.

1t isn't very often that the Bowery Is
lucky enough to get feed, but recently
there was the lucky day. About eight
o'clock, just as the street was waken-
ing up, bakery wagon, in frenzy to
get somewhere. bumped along the thor
oughfare. On the curbs on either side
were seated those ragged men who,
either rightly or enormously have
reached the conclusion that they do
not count. and who therefore work not.
As the bounding wagon reached the
rendezvous Of rest its rear doors
opened out came pan after pan of
bread. jelly doughnuts. tarts. rolls, lay
er cake and biscuits. An. elevated train
passing above provided a clatter which
drowned the sound of the falling pans,
and by the time the bakery wagon had
gone block there was not cooki
or crust remaining in the street. Down
and-outerS. who have not proceedet
faster than a SLOUGH for years, wer>
running east, west and south from the
scene of the bakery wagon like boltt
from the so-calied blue. The driver
returned to collect the pans, distrib-
uted q streetful of snappy language
and drove dolefully away. And along
the Bowery there was an air Of con-
tentnent all day.

N othine as Usual.

A bulletin just issued by the Cham
Der of Commerce of the United States
champions the recommendations that
nave been made from various quar-
tiers that no new industries should be
created at this time unless they are
such as will contribute directly and ef-
fecttYely to the successful prosecution
OF the war. There is a warning joined
10 the effect that the time is coming
when existing industries not calculated
TO that end will be restricted and that
some Of them may be eliminated alto
gether.
The sooner the entire country sets
its song OF industrial patriotism TO this
tune the better. II is bound to become
popular eventually; why not now?
In no other way will the war be won
with so much expedition and so little
ultimate loss. The recognition Of this
fact alone should enhance and advance
the popularity of the doctrine
At the beginning Of the war good PEG
pie Of all classes in this country talked
about business as usual" II had a
right stable and sensible ring in the
ears. Soon, however, the more wise
began to see things in another light.
The new doctrine is that the one BUSH
ness Of the nation is war. This mighty
rod Of Aaron, converted into serpent
incOntently swallows up all the little
contestants. Inc WIZARDS with their
private pursuits have one course left.
That is to become patriots, heart and
soul. 1t will be better for the country
and better for them.
This applies as we'll TO the individual
in his every capacity aud activity.
With him perhaps rests the solution
Of the problem. When he begins to
cut out nonessentials, not in an ascetic
spirit beyond wars requirements, but
in the spirit Of true service which will
not permit an ounce of constructive
effort to be districted, the nonessen-
tails will promptly respond to the law
of supply and demand.
Great Britain went against the 'busi-
ness as usual slogan and paid the
penalty. Under stress there came a
right bout-face The result has been
that Great Britain is stronger than
ever, while business is doing wonders,
altho not at the old stand.-Washing-

Some Notable pionatarIes.

Somewhere in the wilds Of Afghan
istan there is an a1neer who boasts of
as many high dignities as there are
days in the year, among them being:
"The Sovereign of.the Universe, whom
God created to be as accomplished as
the moon at Ter plentitude; whose eye
glitters like the northern star, king
as spiritual as ball IS round. who,
when he rises, shades all his people,
and frcm under whose feet a sweet
odor is waited" But perhaps the most
remarkable title any monarch was ever
proud-to own was borne by the king
of Monomotapa. whose praises were
s-cg hy his cnnrt meats and c::.s. e:a 20
as Lord Of the Sun and Moon, Great
Magician and Great Thief"

Hiah Prices For Poor Beef.

The packers accuse the retailers of
charging extortionate prices for meat
They say that there are three grades
Of meat and that there should be con-
siderable difference in the retail price
Of these grades, but retailers sell all
at the same pric tho there is a great
difference in the wholesale prices
which the packers charge The three
grades are first the cornted steer,
which has been fed on corn for at least
six months; second. steers that have
been fed from sixty TO ninety days
on corn; third. animals Of all sorts fed
on forage. There is a very great diff
ference in the food value Of the meat
Of these three grades. but with the re-
tail dealer, the packers charge. a sir
io!n steak is s:rIoin, whether it comes
from an animal fed on corn stalks and
weeds, or from one fed for six months
on corn. The food value Of the meat
from the amman fed exclusively on
grass and other forage IS very low in
comparison with corn fed beef. II is
said that more OF this lean beef is sold
in the west, near the stock raising cen
ter Of the country. than in the east, and
always at the price that good beef
should bring.
On the other hand. the retailers say
that when the price of hides and other
hy-products OF the packing houses is
very high, as at present. the price Of
meat should be lowered and the pack
.ers make no such reductions There
is only one thing certain about the
matter The people have to pay very
high prices for poor beeh-Omaha

10 PER CENT TAX
ON ALL INCOMES
NEW PLAN OF GOVERNMENT

EARNS MONEY.
CONGRESS TO TAKE UP
NEW REVENUE PROPOSAL
December Session to Wrestle With
December Session to WrestIe With
Problem Of Raising $4,000, 900, 900 Per
Year-Pian Of Raising one-Fifth
Amount by Taxation Favored - Five
Million People Now Pay on Incomes.
=

Washington, Nov. 3.-Government of
ficials who will have a part in framing
another war tax bill when congress
meets in December, are considering a
straight additional income tax on all
persons, as well as increased war profits
to raise more revenue.
Administration leaders realize that
there must be greater revenue produce
ing sources provided to meet the grow
ing war expenditures, and a Straight
income tax of 10 per cent on all persons
and corporations will be urged, it is
declared.
The two tax laws now in effect are
expected to raise only $4,000. 900, 900 by
the end of the present fiscal year, on
June 80, 1918, and to average $3.S00.-
100000 for a full year. The expendi-
lures of the government during the
next fiscal year, if the war continues.
are expected to be $4,000. 0O0, 900.
Raise One fifth BY Taxes.
1t will be the general policy of the
administration, it is declared. to raise
at least one fifth of this amount in
taxes. A minimum OF $1,000, 100000
must be raised, it was pointed out This
will make it necessary to raise, rough
ly, an additional $1,000. 100000 - the
new tax bill to be prepared at the next
session OF congress.
1t was said today by a well informed
official source that the idea of increas-
ing the supertaxes on incomes of all
sorts to raise this additional revenue
is almost Impossible because when the
time comes to draw the new bill there
win be no accurate means of knowing
how the present supertaxes are work
ing out and therefore impossible to be
sure OF raising any definite additional
sum in the same manner.
Now Reach $4,000 Persons.
Internal revenue bureau officials fig
ure that with the present low exemp-
tons about 100000 persons will be
reached in the whole country. The old
income tax law reached only $4,000.
It Is estimated officially now that indi-
vidual incomes aggregating $500, 000,-
900 are taxable. Corporation incomes
amount to about 50 900 900, 900 annually.
A tax of 10 per cent on these incomes
would raise s1.s5o,o00.o00.
In defense of the plan 1t was pointed
out that Great Britain levies tax of
25 per cent on all incomes over every
sort above about $500.

Heavy EARTHQUAKE Shock.

An earthquake occurred on October
20, 1870, and was felt very sensibly
over northeastern America, from New
Brunswick to Iowa. and from the River
st. Lawrence to Cincinnati. Some Of
the large stores and factories in New
York city were SO badly shaken that
employees rushed into the streets.
Further north it was more pronounced.
At Montreal bells were rung In the
swaying steeples Of public buildings.
and in Quebec chimneys were thrown
down. Several of the public schools in
New York were dismissed. teachers
and pupils Joining in hasty flight, the
walls of buildings were shaken and
furniture was moved from its place.

Of the deep. This cuttlefish isn't much
Of "a fighter, as fighters go, so he has
been forced to provide some means OF
protecting himself from the myriads
Of voracious fish that inhabit the deep
sea where he lives. There is small
pouch In which he carries an intensely
black fluid. On the approach of an
enemy he squirts out some Of this
liquid and surrounds himself with a
black cloud, in which he hides from
his pursuing enemy. Because of the
nature of the fluid he excretes. he is
sometimes termed the fnkfish.
