per cect more thaa for a h!p of the

the wages and the accommodations ot

by the seamen's union la the United

eclots fa other countries, aad if tht

Precisely the same arguments we

we must lire a subsidy or we cant

a little,

ia the cost of making a six -day trip
What was tl?e other Item? Oh, yes;
"the accommodations of the crew!"
Rather luxurious accommodations for
a crew of 3S9 persona, six days! Soma
thing over 40 per day for each mem
ber of the crew. Who woulda t be an
American sailor! tfust think of thosa
stokers aad trimmers, working half-
naked, each receiving about $8 wages
for the trip aad having "accommoda
tions' that cost 240 apiece oa the av
erage. ;
It is evideat that the Increased cost,
If in fact there be any actual increase,
Is not because coal or provisions cost
more. Let Curtis testify:
"The next item of Importance in the
expen&e of moving the steamer Is the
coal. A vessel like the St. Paul, mak
ing twenty and twenty-one miles an
hour, burns from 300 to 400 tons a day,
or an average of 5.000 tors a voyage.
This coal costs $3 a toa In New York
and $4 a ton In Loadon. the latter bo
les a little better quality. All the
provisions are bought in New York,
which is a much better market for ev
erything to cat than England, but the
equipments, the china, crystal, linen
and other things of that sort are
bought in Eagland, for steamers pay
no duty."
Hence, that $16,000 Increase in cost
cao only be accouated for in the bet
ter "accommodations furnished Am
erican seamen aad even Curtis is not
Viz enough a fool to cellevt such a
tale.
"American" seamen is almost a mis
nomer, too.
Curtis again:
"According to the law, at least 75 per
cent of them must be American citi
zens, but very few are of American
birth. Nearly everyoae Is naturall2cd,
or at least has his first papers. In the
dining room of the St. Paul, for ex
ample, every steward is of Eaglish
birth, most of them having served for a
time upon Eaglish steamers until they
could get berths oa the American line
at bigger wages. Nearly all of the stew
ards on the White Star, Cunard and
other English lines and many of the
Germans have also taken out naturali
zation papers in the hope of securing
positions for the same reason. As soon
as they get their first papers they ap
ply for employment and their names
go down on the waiting list, for they
get better treatment aboard American
steamers than on those of any other
nation. Our navigation lawa require
it"
That Is a grand argument for a ship
subsidy. It is "protection" to Ameri
can labor with a vengeance. Bigger
wages, no doubt; but who gets the
wages? Oh, American citizens made
to order because the law requires it.

up skul!s of men till they have piled
up a pyramid ten or twelve feet high.
Over this pyramid some one has built
a canopy to keep off the rain. These
were tte skulls of youog men of Savoy,

to thirty-five years of age, peasants
from the farms and workmen from the

scarcely a railway station without its

Germany at Jena and Leipsic, at Lut

will find them in Russia at Moscow, In

Successful Nebraska. Business Men

EMlLi LANG.
The city of Beatrice, with its ele
gant churches, splendid business build
ings, modern hotels, and above all,
many lovely homes, habited by a hos
ttable, generous and thrifty people,
can well be crowned the "Queen City"
of Nebraska. Of the many substantial
men who helped to bring about this re
sult, none stand higher as , a citizen
and business man than Emll Lang,
the grocer merchant whose elegant
store occupies the prominent corner of
Sixth and Ella streets.
Mr. Lang is a native of Austria,
where he was born October 4, 1849.
When 19 years of age he emigrated to
America, landing in New York with
out one dollar, and unable to spnk p
word of the English language. From
here he went to Illinois, where he
worked on a farm the following year,
when he removed to Beatrice and en
gaged in the grocery business in part
nership with Jacob Klein, now the
owner of the large department store.
This association continued most sat
isfactorily, both socially and financial
ly, for IS years, when the partnership
was dissolved, Mr. Lang continuing
the business, which has since grown
to its present proportions, being the
largest of any retail grocer of the
state.
He was united in marriage to Caro
line, daughter of Joseph Meyer of
Illinois, April 24, 1876, a lady of excep
tional character, who is the mother of
his six sons and one daughter. Of the
sons, Joseph, the elder, is manager of
his large mercantile interests, in which
he is assisted by Henry, a young man
of promise, and Eligius, a bright youth
of 12. Louis, aged 21 years, is super
intendent of the canning factory. Ed
mund and Leo, aged 8 and 10, attend
school at the -St. Joseph Catholic
school. Miss Anna, an interesting
daughter of 15, has rare musical tal
ent, in which she graduated the pres
ent year, and Is now attending the
high school.
Mr. Lang has been one, of the most
enterprising business men of Beatrice,
in which he has built several good
business houses, among them the
splendid store which he occupies,
which is one of the best, if not the
best, store buildings in the state. He
also owns the Lang' Canning Factory,
the pack of which is eagerly sought
after and taken as fast as produced by
the grocers throughout the country
who are seeking the better class of
canned goods. ( .
Mr. Lang is a' member, of the Cath
olic church and a most worthy citizen
who performs his duties in every rela
tion of life in a most creditable man
ner. He enjoys the comforts of his
own well appointed home,,which is lo
cated In the most lovely residence por

There is something about the approach
of death that reconciles men to it.
The senses are dulled, the nerceDtive
faculties are blunted and the end comes
quietly, painlessly, like a gentle sleep.
In this condition I mean on the ap
proach of death those who retain
tneir lacuittes to any degree become
more or less philosophers. They
know that death is inevitable, that it
is only a question of hours, and they
accept the verdict without any demon
stration and in a philosophical way.
in all my experience I have never
found a case in which a dying man or
woman complained against the inevit
able, attempted to fight its approach
or even feared it. It is onlv in erood
health that we fear death. When we
become 111, when we have sustained
some injury of a very serious nature,
the fear of death seems to disannear

Looting In China.
The accounts of the looting pub
lished in England and America were
not accurate, and seemed to be mostly
written by persons who had some ul
terior motive in showing the soldiers
of some one nation or another at their
worst. I maintain that, if looting is to
be looked upon as a crime, the soldiers
of all nations, none excepted, disgraced
themselves alike. The Russian, the
British, the American, the Japanese,
the French, all looted alike. They one
and all were looters of the very first
water.
Nothing, probably, was more curi
ous, when Peking quieted down, than
the sale by auction of the legal loot in
the British legation. Regular parties
went out with carts and brought in
what, they, could silks, embroideries,
furs, bronzes, jewelry, jade, china
vases. These were then sold every
afternoon at 5 o'clock on the legation
lawn, or In the first hall, and quite a
considerable sum of money was real
ized by the sale of these articles. These
auctions were well attended, mostly by
British officers and missionaries, and
by a few Americans.
A worse thing happened. Out in the
court, as one of the Chinese officials
who was escorting the visitors stood
impassive, with his white tasselled hat,
and a long necklace of amber and jade,
with pendants, the emblem of his
rank, dangling on his chest, a military
officer approached him and with a bow
removed the valued necklace from the
Chinaman's neck, placed it round his
own, and with a "Ta-ta" and grace
ful wave of the hand, walked away

of this to Sir Robert Hart, but, un
fortunately, the- necklace could never
be recovered. Henry Savage Landor's
"China and the Allies." .
Minister Wo
Wu Ting Fang,, in an address at
Buffalo, said that the first Chinese
metallic coin was made In the reign of
Hwang Ti, twenty-seven centuries be
fore Christ. He declared that in the
Chinese numismatic collections there
were still preserved coins that dated
as far back as twenty-three centuries
before Christ. These coins are made
of copper alloyed with zinc and lead.
Minister Wu Impressed upon them
that gold, was something that the Chi
nese knew all about. On that subject
he remarked that: "The value of gold
as a medium of exchange was not
overlooked by the ancient Chinese, for
history mentions the use in the Chow
dynasty (which flourished from the
12th century to the 3d century B. C.)
of gold made in square blocks of a
catty in weight In the subsequent dy
nasty ingots of 20 taels in weight were
used. Gold bullion' now in use is us
ually in slabs or bars of ten taels in
weight. Although gold in China par
takes more of the character of a com
modity than money in tbe ordinary
sense of the term, it Is an acceptabli
medium of exchange In any port of the
empire' and bankers as well as gold
smiths, often deal in it."
After throwing that tub to the whale
he ventured to say something about
silver which is now the currency in
China. He said: '
"Silver acquired a monetary value
and use In the Han dynasty, when Wu
Ti about the latter part of the 2d cen
tury B. C. made coins of 'silver 'alloyed
with gold and tin. From that time on
silver filled a place of more or less im
portance as a medium of exchange for
large transactions and the cash for
small ones." , j -
Perhaps the gold . bugs down there
did not fully comprehend Minister
Wu's statement that gold in China was
a commodity and that silver and cop
per was the currency. If the job was
undertaken to force the rold standard
on the 400.000.000 of Chinese it would
.be found to be a bleger one than sup
pressing the boxers..' As soon a a that

M. Jules Siegfried who was Francs'f
minister of Industry commerce aad the
colonies la the cabinet of Ribot la 1892
and 1803, discussed the trade situation
la an Interview ia Chicago tan other
night.
?If..thf great trust la this country,"
be said, "encroach on European mar;
ket to the detriment of European man
ufacturers, I predict a combination of
the commercial countries of Europe to
raise tariffs on American goods to al
most prohtblUte figures. There is but
one logical solution of the present situ
etlon, and that is the signing of a fair
and equitable reciprocity treaty , be
tween the different nations. I always
have teen In favor of such treaties, be
cause they , foster trade and ' increase
the friendliness of the political rela
tions between the countries party to
them. It really la the only logical solu
tion of the approaching trouble. ' -
"Do I believe a combination ef Euro
pean powers is probable in the near fu
ture? Well, it will follow after several
of tbe countries have put up their tar
iffs to protect their own manufacturers.
You are a wonderful people and your
country is marvelous In its resources,
and when your competition becomes so
great as to be alarming the combina
tion of governments will be a very nat
ural result. Under reciprocity this situ
ation would be almost impossible. Take
my own country, France, for example.
We buy our steel, iron and machinery
from England, but we could buy it
from your mills Just as well. Under a
reciprocity agreement between the two
governments we would come to you for
our steel, our Iron, our coal, our ma
chlnery, and, in fact, nearly all of the
material used In our manufactured In
dustries. On the other band, we would
send you our gloves, our fine linen, our
lace and our cotton goods. The commer
cial relations established would" bring
the two countries into closer and more
cordial political relations. It would be
of benefit to both."

The lights of the Waldorf-Astoria were
the campfires on Thursday night. May
0, of hundreds of the soldiers of finance
who were on the firing line In Wall
street during tbe day, and as they sat
in the cheery glow they nursed their
wounds and counted their dead, says a
New York dispatch to the Philadelphia
Press. The casualty list was a long
one, but the night held more cheer than
the preceding one.
There was no wild scramble for over
night loans of Northern Pacific stock,
and the new day seemed to be fair In
promise. There was Intense relief at
the promised succor of tbe Northern
Pacific shorts. It was accepted as a
fact that Kuhn, Loeb & Co. and J. P.
Morgan & Co. would Bettle for 150 and
believed that the action of those two
great houses would fix the price for
everybody. The price, It was generally
agreed, was a fair one. As to the lat
ter a very hopeful view generally pre
vailed. John W, Gates dispensed cheer.
"The medicine has been hard to
take," he said, "but it has done good.
There was too much speculation, and It
had to be checked. There will he heavy
buying orders, and the market will ral
ly promptly. This Northern Paclflo set
tlement will clean - things up. The
banks saved the day, aud I feel quite
sure there will be no failures of any
size."
Mr. Gates would not discuss his per
sonal losses, but told a dog story that
was eloquent in expression. ".I knew a
man in Youngstown," be said, "who
had a poor yellow pup. Well, that dog
was kicked so hard and so often that
he walked sideways. . i am walking

WESTERN EYES ON PHILLIPS.
Farmers In Nebraska Keenly later
eted In Corn Speculator' Work.
"Every, one in the west Is talking
about George II. Phillips and what be
is doing In corn." This Is the way
Charles Neel. tbe corn operator of Lin
coln, Neb., described the situation the
other day while be was watching the
action In the corn pit at Chicago.
"Men, women and children who nev
er heard pf Pbillips untll a few. weeks
ago or who never read the commercial
columns of a newspaper are now read
ing closely to see what Phillips Is doing
In the market and what he Is saying.
It Is . wonderful how much Interested
the west is about corn. - When western
men come here, they .want to -see . the
youog ,man right away and shake
hands with him. as bis name is in ev
ery household.
"Out In Nebraska we' have a little
corn left, but farmers are too busy
planting It to market it' freely. They
have seen the price get above 60 cents
here and want to get , that price at
home. . There will be a large acreage
put ioto corn this year owing to the
high price."
This illustration of the feeling about
corn Is only - a sample of how all' the
people In ths west talk, says the. Chica
go Inter Ocean. Here in Chicago wher
ever' one goes he hears the small boys
talking about Phillips. Down in Mor
ris and throughout Grundy county.
Ills., they are doing little else" but
praise Phillips, who is considered the
star of that section. It Is nothing but
Phillips. Phillips, Phillips, and what he
Is doing and Is going to do with corn.
