BsAzIL LOOKING TO FUTURE
Important Industries Of the Country
Are to Be Encouraged by the
Government.

The secretary Of agriculture of Bra
I'll recently presented a lengthy me-
mortal to the president Of the republic
explaining the necessity of encourag-
ing the coal and steel industries, which
has resulted in the publication Of two
DEGREES of the federal government.
The secretary's report states that
until there are at least ten coal mines
in active operation In the country the
effect of this industry will not be felt
in the conservation of the wood sup
ply, which is now being rapidly con-
sumed to meet the needs of the rail-
ways and of domestic industries. The
steel industry is SO largely dependent
upon suitable fuel that, In the secre-
the attention of the Brazilian govern
ment. The director of the geological
survey of the Brazilian government
states that by a process of washing
metallurgical coke msy be obtained
from Brazilian coal, and that this Is
already being accomplished in the
state of Santa Catharina.
The secretary points out that the
present lack of sufficient domestic coal
of suitable quality should not interfere
with the establishment of q steel in
dustry, which could temporarily use
wood, and that for more than 300 years
Sweden was obliged to depend upon
this Kind of fuel. He also says that in
the United States some 100000 tons OF
pig iron are produced annually by the

MACK PAYS FOR PERRY.
Braves Receive $4,000 to Settle Famous
Case

The Boston National League Baseball
company received Saturday from the
Philadelphia club of the American league
check of $500 in full settlement of
the famous Scott Perry case. This pay
ment by the Athletics gives to the Phil
adelphla club complete claim to the
players services and indicates conclu-
sively that the Braves were right in their
contention that Perry was. at the time
the Athletics secured their injunction.

Settlement of the case out of court
has been pending for some time. being
first preached by President Johnson of
the American league last August. but
was finally accepted by the Athletics
only a few days ago. The Braves in
sisted from the start upon the payment
of $500, this being the American league
waiver price, and in view of the fact
that the Athletics had. for the entire
year, the services of Pitcher Perry, who
ranked high in the pitching records of
that league, cannot be considered in any
sense eXorbitant. In fact it is virtually
the same as contained in the original
suggestion of Manager Stallings to Man
ager Mack, when the national commits
sion's decision giving Perry to the Bos-
ton club was first promulgated. AT that
time Manager Stallings suggested that

known could be secured by the Athletics

First Use of Toilet Nineuar.

Perhaps the ladies who use toilet
vinegar would like to know its origin?
The story runs like this: During the
great plague that visited Marseilles,
four highwaymen who had formed a
gang, invented an aromatic vinegar by
means of which they could rob the
dead and dying without any fear of
infection. This vinegar was for a
long time known in France under the
name of 'Vinaigre de quatre Voleur, "
and eventually became toilet vinegar.

He was patient with her, though the
slow-dragging minutes during which
