THE PICTURE MEATH THE GLASS
By Cupid

IT'S the period of reconstruction,
And times are very hard;
Our banker lists to tales of woe,
From architect and bard.
He PAGES. up and down the floor,
Money is tight, alas!"
Then casts a furtive glance
At picture meath the glass.
He sees clerks and typists idle,
He sees assets melting fast.
He wonders why none are entering
All are walking past.
He hears the farmers tell
How stock must live on grass,
Again he rivets his eyes
On the picture meath the glass
Business will strike its level
At some not distant day,
No matter what people think,

FEAR GROWING OF GENERAL
 REVOLUTION IN IRELAND

Dublin, Aug 1.-Fears that the Irish situation. which is daily growing more tense, may burst into a general con- fiagration at any moment are expressed in responsible quarters here. At the present there is virtually no civil law south of the Boyne river except that administered by republican courts. but it is pointed out that each day finds the balance between military and revolunion- ary rule growing more equal.
 It is estimated that there are be- tween 60,0O0 and 80,G00 fully equipped British soldiers in Ireland, and they are being reinforced daily by men arriv- ing from across the channel. As a result, theer are more frequent and more stub born battles between the troops and the republican volunteers, who for a time had things their own way. There have also been more arrests for carrying arms and seditious literature, as reports to courtmartial show. It is expected the number of these arrests will increase if the government succeeds in carrying it's drastic measures in the house of con- mons next week.
 Reprisals by policemen and soldiers on sponsible for attacks against the armed forces of the crown are also expected here, the police being particularly arous- ed over the attacks made on their :el- low members. In the meantime, the Sim Feiners. in carrying on their cam paign have virtually cleared the coun- try of barracks. They are now turning ther attention to country houses where military forces might be houses, and a number of these have been burned dur ing the last ten days.

RATTLE BETWEEN SALMON
 AND HUGE BALD EAGLE

Seattle Wash, Aug. 1-Every man aboard the schooner Roosevelt, from the master 10 the cook, in from a recent voyage, said they would take an oath that they saw a huge bald eagle take A wild ride on salnon's back in the stretch of water between Cape Nudge and Seymour Narrows, Gulf of Georgia. And they brought the eagle to Seattle to prove n.
 The Roosevelt was on it's way to Se- attle from the fishing banks i'll Hecate Strait Shortly after passing Seymour Narrows members of the crew said thfy noticed a bald eagle flying close to the water, near the vessel. As they watched the big bird skimming near the surface. g. spring salmon estimated to weigh about 20 pounds leaped clear of the swift moving current Quick as flash the eagle drove his sharp talons into the fish's back.
 There was great splash as the big springer dived, taking the eagle beneath the surface All hands rushed to the rail to watch the struggle. Three times they said, the fish and the bird disappeared in the water while the Roosevelt steered course close behind them.
 Finally the eagle loosened its hold on the salmon and Topped over on the sur lace or the water colhplelelS eAii0'
 It had put up a game fight but had lost it's prey. The crew of the Roosevelt pulled the bird aboard with bait hook. The eagle was nearly drowned but on deck it soon recovered and showed fight. While the battle between the bird and the fish was in progress two other eagles. the Roosevelt's men said, flew around the vicinity screaming loudly. Captain Barney Pedersan presented the captured eagle to one of the local public parks.

900 TRAMWAY EMPLOYES
 PAY THEMSELVES DAILY

Denver, Colo, Aus 1.-Nine hundred men employed by the Denver Tramwav company have never received a p~> check or pay envelope from the corpora ton although many of them have work ed for it for years. They are their own 'Faymasters."
 The method by which the men are paid is claimed by the officials of the company to be in use nowhere else in America It has been in vogue here for 30 years, however, and both officials and employees are well satisfied with it. Three times the men voted almost una nimously against any change in the sys- tenn.
 The 900 who enjoy the distinction of working for wages without receiving pay envelopes are motormen and conductors and the ysimply pay themselves at the end of each days work out of the amount collected during their time on duty Before turning in his receipts for the day, each conductor pays himself and his motorman their wages. The conductors are aided in making their calculations by cards furnished them by the company which shows the amount due the employe for any number of hours and minutes.
 The system has many advantages, ac- cording to Frederick W. Hid, general manager of the company. It makes the garnisheeing of a mans wages difficult. It also means that the men always have money in their pockets, according to MT. Hid. Tha company benefit sby small CT clerical staff which would be impossi- ble were the men paid weekly or bi- weekly by check or pay envelope, says Mir. Hid, who adds, however, that the company loses about q, 800 per year in interest it otherwise would receive on it's payroll from the banks

All of the advances made by the com mission are on a percetage basis. The increased rates are to be made effective at the earliest practicable date. The commissioners authorized the carriers to put them into effect on five days notice with the filing of new tariffs. Just how soon this can be done is not definitely known however. Railroad tariff experts have been at work for many weeks' but it will probably take some time to prepare the tariffs for filing. In the meantime the government is paying rent al to the roads to make up the dehclt in earnings, that amount to but little short of S3,000,000 day.
 In it's decision the commission declares there is not time to make all the rates adjustments necessary and for this req son a percentage advance was approved. Adjustments of relationships between rates vii lbe made as rapidly as possl- ble, it was stated in the decision.
 Under the Transportation Act the commission had the option Of allowing either 5 1-2 per cent. or 8 per cent, return, with one-half of one per cent to be used for non-productive Improvements and betterments chargeable to capital account. The per cent. was chosen be- cause of the difficulties the carriers are under in obtaining capital and the rates they are paying, which run as high as ' 1-2 per cent. Various recent hnanc- ing operations of some of the Eastern carriers are pointed to by the commits sion as examples of this situation.
