BB-ICE OF COFFEE. LARGE CROPS AND CLOSE COMPETI TION HAVE LOWERED THE FIGURE.

The d elise in. preen cof fee has teen so exeat as to seriously inrs many merchants carrying large stocks in America and Europe. Seeping step by step in tonh wi;h this drop in the green prednet. she pre pared rcas?ed brands have also fallen In fact, the decline in roasted coifee has even exceeded that or" green, not because the rcassers were anxious to give the pcblic a chance, tmz on account of tha war being waged between Arbeckle Bros., the big Brooklyn roasters, and the Wooison pice company, controlled by the Sugar trust. When this war began, a boot a year ago, the "Ariesa" brand, prepared by Arbeckle Bros., was selling at IS cents per pound. The last cut made by the Woofcou company and met by Arboekle Bros, broaght the price down to 9 cents per pound aet, wish a discount of 1 pet eens for cash to dealers. In the same period of time green coffee has declined from to 6'-s cents per pound. The coffee aged by these competing coneeras is known as grade No. S, shoegh sometimes the still poorer gradi of No. is ssed. Agents of -W. H.

BejreseHSatives of both firms are sta tioned penaanntly at Santos and Bic Janeiro who have picked up this qsalisy of coffee cual practically she entire sup ply is in the hands of the two fix:!. The cegar trust has time far waged a losing fjchr. Net thas it has cut prices below profitable poiat. for there is ssill a liberal profit in roasted coffee of the grades used at 9 cents per poend. The fight was begun in order to forcibly persuade Arbecklr Bros, not to boild the opposition sugar refinery which the firm had contracted for in Brooklyn. Bet the refinery it- still being peshed tc completion, and its erpwted cutpos ci 4,000 barrels daily will more than sweeten all the coffee the firm is placing en she market. The greatest sufferers are the outside roasters of coffee, who have heretofore obtained good pries fcr the medium grades. In the rural districts end among the poorer classes thr 9 cent coffee has been exteesivcly purchased to the es dofcicii of rhe somewhat better grades roasted ly the otxttiders.

John McLoual'I, an industrious and frugal ScotcLi. n of Armour dale, a sub urb cf Kansas City, Kan., is reervig the blessings of his fellow laborers. He has figured out an extra hour's sleep in the morning a boon for the toilers who nraac be at shop and factory at 7 a. m. Mr. McDonald is a mechanical engineer, who keeps a horse to drive to his work every morning. But there were some inconveniences attached to it by reason of the necessity of leaving a warm bed an hour earlier in the morning in order that the horse as well as McDonald might have time to eat and digest his breakfast McDonald finally figured out a device that would obviatH this thing. Above the horse's manger he constructed a box with the bottom of it made in the form of a trap that drcps down when a catch is pulled. Attached to a catch is a wire that runs up to a pulley suspended from the floor of the hayloft. It passes over the pulley and out through a small hole in the side of the barn above the door. From there it is stretched along the yard, through rincs at the top of poles, and is passed through a small aperture in the easing at the top of the back door of the house, thence around the kitchen wall, up a stairway to McDonald's bed room, terminating with r. wooden han dle in arm's reach of his bed. At night wh(-n McDonald reaches heme nd stables his horse, he fixes his bedding of straw, j.uts a sufficient quan tity of hay in the rack for two meals, puts a measure of feed in the animal's manger fcr supper and in the box over his manger for breakfast. Then his sta ble work is done for the night, and tor the moraine roo. At 5 o'clock in the morning Mr-Donald awakens and pulls the string ilz his bt aside, and the feed drops from the bov to the manger, and the horse h3 before him his breakfast. McDonald turns over and sleeps till 6 o'clock. Then he srets up and has noth ing to do but cat his own breakfast, hitch up and go to work. McDonald is net yet satisfied. He has in mind a swinging harness that will drop on the horse's back ami snap to gether when the casch cn the feed box is pulled. He says his only desire is so invent such a conil -nation cf labor sav ing machinery that will enable work ingmen to enjoy the early morning snooze. New Ycrii Sun. FOR SAVING LIVES.

The Famous Ejrjptolosist Says the Found ers of the World's Civilization Wert Chinese The Comment ciT. Professor Paul Hacpt on. This Theory. The famous Egyptologist, Professor J. de Morgan, who- stands at the head of the antiquarians of the whole world, recently made startling discoveries in underground Egypt, which prove the founders not only of Egyptian civiliza tion, but also of the civilization of the whole world, were Chinese. His aston ishing discoveries show that the Chi nese were the first civilized race to in habit the earth, and therefore the Gar den of Eden was in China, and that Ad am and Eve were Chinese. M. de Morgan has teen for many years director general of antiquities of the Egyptian government. He claims in his great work, which has just now been brought out in Paris, "Eecherches sur les Origines de 1'Egypte, 1'Age de la Pierre et les Metaux" t "Researches Into the Origin of Egypt the Age of Stone and Metal'), thas the boasted civilization of Egypt comes by way of Assyria from central China, and proves that the origin of our civilization really comes from the Chinese, and not from Assyria and Egypt, as has been gener ally held heretofore by scholars. But M. de Morgan says in ail Africa we find the Hints and the iron imple ments, bus where are the bronze imple ments which are found in other conti nents? Every antiquarian knows thas no race, save the African, has gone di rectly from flint to iron. The age of bronze is a necessary connecting link. But this link is missing. Where is the missing link? M. de Morgan cannot find it short cf China. There was the regular advance from stone to bronze, from bronze to iron, and hence he concludes that this is one proof that the art of working metals came from China to Assyria, from As syria to Egypt, when some Assyrian tribe conquert-d the original inhabitants and brought its arts with it, bus he has still other proofs. He finds that the hieroglyphics of Egypt are very much like the earliest form of writing among the Assyrians. Another proof thas the pharaohswere of a foreign race is the fact that nos a single trace of the art of the pharaohs has been fomd in the archaic tombs. Commencing on the theory of M. de Morgan, Paul Haupt, professor of He brew, Assyrian and other Semitic lan guages in Johns Hopkins university, says: "I have always believed thas the civilization of ancient Egypt was de rived from Babylonia, more especially from southern Babylonia, bordering on the northern shore of the Persian gulf. The Eabylouians who invaded Egypt may have been Semites, bus their civili zation was, no doubs, derived from the non-Semitic aborigines of Babylonia viz. the Sumerians. "Many points of contact between the Sumerians and the Chinese have already been pointed out. Professor Terrien de Lacouperie of Loudon has written on this subject, and the Eev. C. J. Ball has published a number of papers on linguistic affinities between Sumerian and Chinese. "Idonct think is impossible that she civilization of ancient Egypt was de rived from southern Babylonia, and thas there was a connection besween she early civilization of the pre-Semitic in habitants of Ea by Ionia and the early civilisation of China. The populasion of ancient Egypt may have consisted of an African substratum infiltrated wish Babylonians, invaders." cue. -Chicago Trib- iNGERSOLL ON FOOTBALL. He Think Players Should .Be Allowed to Use Feather Beds. Bob Ingersoll, who was invited the other day to witness the Michigan-Chicago football game, declined. He has never seen a game, but said it muss be a good game, as so many were killed playing it. He thinks the rules should be mcdified, however, to permit the players so wrap themselves in feather beds. He said : "I do think match football games and baseball games between colleges should be stopped. I should like to see every college in America have a good gym nasium and a competent instructor, and then let the students go into athletics for the sake of development, not for the sake of Ltating somebody else in a game. " Philadelphia Press. iiibor Troubles In a Church. The Baptist church at Scottdale, Pa, , recently had labor troubles which threat ened its existence.
