"You see, the 'varsity rows eight miles In the morning and eight miles in the afternoon. I fu pretty bard work. When the morning work Is over we are glad to loaf a while, and after the row at night we are ready to Nevertheless, every precaution was taken that there he no violation of dis cipline. After "taps" the captain reg ularly made the roundH of the bed rooms lo we that all his men were there. It wan well understood that If man broke training be would bo tak en from the crew, reduced from a po sition which he had worked hard to attain, be forever disgraced, and an other man put In bis place. But the college pride of the men, their loyalty to their friends, their determination to win, were stronger forces than all the threats In the world In urging them to do tbelr best. "I give them all they want to cat," ssld Ellis Ward, the famous old coach of Pennsylvania. "They get plain, sub stantial food meat three times a day If they want It chops, steak, roast beef, and plenty of good vegetables, but no pastry, pies, or the like, and not too much sweet stuff. We aren't trou bled with sickness. Last year one of our boys bad a sprained ankle. He was In too much of a burry, and Jumped out of the wagon before It stopped when we reached training quarters. But he rowed In the race Just tbe same, and did bis work. Tbe best way to keep them from breaking training Is to give them plenty to do." Leslie's weekly. 6RITI8H INDU8TRIE3 DECLINE. Trad Victories of Americana Due to Hlowcioaa of the Kngllah. It hi shown by Col. M. B. JeflPerds In the London Flnnnelsl News that from J870 to 1W) the New York Central Railroad reduced Its working expem.es per ton mile by more than D2 per cent, while wages were Increasing, and since IKK) by 40 per cent, while the English companies have made practically no re duction In the thirty years. The cost for Instance, of moving a ton of freight one mile on the London and Northwestern Bond Is 1.3N cents as agslnst .236 of a cent on the New York Ontral. and only Am of n cent on U) Great Northern Itoad, which runs through the thinly settled North west Tbe New York Central freight charge per ton mils In 1870 was 1.88 cents, and In 1000 only .70 ofa cent In other words, the rate to the public M tat New York Central Is only about half the cost to the English company moving a ton one mile. The rate charged on the London and Northwest ern In 10U0 was 2.34 cents per ton per mile. Inasmuch as the wages are much higher on the American roads, the com parative charges and expenses are a significant commentary on the differ ence In effectiveness of management This condition la duplicated to greater or lens extent In a very large number of KngliHh manufacturing Industries. There are many morals to a tale ol this kind, nays Guntou'g Magazine, but the present purpose Ih to Huggest only one. It 111 becomes Kngllsh manufac turers and theoretical economists to charge upon trade unions a decline which Is so obviously the result of an tiquated industrial management The trade union movement In almost :t thoroughly established In the United States as In England, yet we Hre out stripping them at nearly every point The trouble Is iu the failure of English manufacturers and Industrial mana gers to keep up with the march ot economic progress. No sympathy need be wasted on their complaints of trade union hampering until British capital ists can do something better to justify their own economic function In the community. ART OF KEEPING COOL. Common Sense Gives Immunity from lleut Exhaustion. With the summer comes the annual ly recurring warning from health bourds, cold-blooded scientific societies and Independent order of never-sweata against the folly of courting heat pros tration. Ueduced to Its elements, the udvlce of these wise men as to the con duct of life during the heated term Is simple and Intelligible. Keep cool; don't get excited; don't eat anything that Is heating; don't drink anything that Is cooling; wear chiefly a broad smile and a wet sponge on the head; don't move nor breathe except when absolutely necessary such are a few of the minor muxiuis of hot air philosophy dished up from year to year for the consumption of sweltering masses In the great fitly. Of nil cants that are entiled during the silly season, surely tbe cunt of keeping cool Is the most ag gravating. There Is really no mystery In the mat ter, little occasion for promulgation of wise saws und modem Instances, no consuming public desire for dependence upon anything but native horse sense for Immunity from heat exhaustion and sunstroke. A reasonable degree of pre caution, such as would occur naturally to every citizen oppressed by undue ex cess of temperature, may be depended upon to tide over the brief emergency without Intermission of accustomed physical nourishment and solace. The life-giving sun Is humanity's greatest boon and most faithful sustalner, even when iMJtirlng a superabundance of heat rnys from the zenith. Dealing with estlval temperature Is, after all, largely an affair of temper ament and locality, to be adjusted from day to day In accordance with ever chnnglng and rarely repeated condi tions. A simple and sane philosophy of common sense is the surest refuge when the mercury mounts Into the nineties, no less than in graver exigen cies on this mundane sphere. Philadel phia Keeonl. Sin; Knew He Iter. "Here Is a man," said the defend ant's counsel, with a tremulous voice, "here Is a mun handicapped at the very beginning of his life. From the time he iuy a ueipiess infant in the cradie to this day, when he sits helpless under the pressure of years and affliction, he has labored under the name of Isbmael Ablnndab Watts." lie was about to say more when the plaintiff rose from her seat and shook a work-worn linger In his direction. "I expected I was going to hear strange things In this courtroom," she cried, with shrill Indignation, "but I didn't cal'late on si-ch foolish talk as that! There never's been a day In his life that Ablnadab's labored, nor thought of laborln'. He's the most shlf'less, lazy" But here she resumed her sent, owing to sudden pressure from her relatives In the rear, and the counsel, a little flushed, went on In a somewhat differ ent strain. Youth's Companion. Kulned by Aeronautics. Count Von Zeppelin, who has tbe distinction of having built the largest of all airships, bas been financially ruined by bis aeronautical experiments. Unable to obtain means for carrying out bis new projects, he Is now break ing up the old framework of his air ships In order to sell tbe aluminum of which they are composed. Zeppelin Is 07 years of age. He was a military at tache of the German embassy In tbe United States during tbe civil war, and made several balloon ascensions from battlefields of the Houth In 18413. He was the leader of the famous cavalry raid In France in 1870 which marked the commencement of hostilities of tbe great Franco-Prussian war. The Helton's 11" tort. The village sexton, In addition to be ing grave-digger, acted as a stone-cutter, house-repairer, and furniture re mover. The local doctor, having ob tained a more lucrative appointment In another county, employed the sexton to assist In his removal. When It came to settling up accounts, the doctor de ducted on old contra account due by the sexton. He wrote at tbe same time, objecting to the charge made for re moving his furniture "If this was steady, It would pay much better than grave digging?" Tbe sexton replied: "Indade, 01 wud be glad ave a steady Job; grave-dlggln' Is very alack since too left!" I-4-4-4-4-4- The Fam. Hand Is Disappearing. The farm hand's finish Is In plain sight and the farm horse Is headed down the same pike, says a man who has Just returned from the West. In their stead Is coming the traction en gine. Out In the prairie region the tendency Is all toward big farms. The agricul tural unit out there has been the quar ter section,, or 100 acres. Few of tfte farmers are satisfied now with such a small bunch of land, and they are reaching out all the time for more. Wheat and corn have been top ping the market at such prices that nearly every fellow Is crazy to go Into raising them on a big scale. And they have the money and the Intelligence to do It, and do It profitably. Right here Is where Invention comes In. On the ordinary farm, where two or three men with the same number of teams of horses can do all the work, It Isn't really necessary to call on the ma chine man for artificial aid, but when the farming is done on a big scale It pays better to buy a traction engine. These are not the ordinary big, clumsy attachments to thrashing outfits, but compactly built little fellows, with gas oline as the motive power. With them there Is no need of getting out at ungodly hours In the morning to feed and water a lot of animals. Five minutes' work fills the tank and makes the machine ready to do your plowing, harrowing, or cultivating. The first cost of these engines It pretty steep, from $1,000 up, but H costs less to run them than It does to feed horses, and they never get balky. They last longer than the average work horse and they do ten times as much work In a day. Out In Nebraska I ran across a fellow with a gang plow, five In a row, hitched to one of these little englues, and It was steadily moving across the 100-acre field and tearing up tbe sod at a lively rate. This same man told me that when It came to harrowing he tacked on two or three big ones and did the Job in a fourth of the former time. Potatoes are planted and dug up with these engines. In planting a large drop per Is used, and In digging Ihern a spe cial kind of plow Is employed. When It comes time In the fall to thresh, the engine Is coupled to a sep arator and the Job is done In short order. If It Is necessary during the winter to grind feed for the cattle It Is the work of but a few minutes to fire It up and start the mill. When grain ia to be hauled to market several farm wagons are attached and the procession moves ofT. There Is scarcely a thing about farm work that these machines will not do, and they are growing more popular ev ery year. The average farmer thought the acme of comfort and perfection had been reached in the sulky plow and the riding cultivator, which saved him many weary steps, and It has not been without considerable trouble that he has been Induced to take up the trac tion engine. Hundreds of these are now being manufactured and sold ev ery year. Sixty-cent wheat and 50-cent corn are maklug western farmers, where 3C bushels of wheat and GO of corn is an average yield, independently rich. A hundred acres of wheat Is an ordinary yield, and this alone Is enough to net a good Income on the Investment. A bunch of cattle will pay the ex penses, and his otfier crops are velvet Tliu result bus breD to ruu up tiie prict of land. Tracts that sold for $25 two years ago bring $10 and $45, and $30 land of past years Is easily marketa ble at $50 and $00. The life Is much easier, the work is not nearly so hard, nor the hours so long. This has tbe good effect of making the farmers' sons more content with life on the farm, and many of them go down to tbe State Agricultural Schooli and take a course In scientific agricul ture, returning better farmers and bet ter citizens. A Gastronomic Peat. At a little achoolhouse In the north of Scotland the schoolmaster keeps bit boys grinding steadily at their desks, but give them permission to nlbblt from their lunch baskets sometimes aj they work. One day, while tbe master waa In structing a class In tbe rule of three, he noticed that one of his pupils was paying more attention to a email tart than to bis lesson. "Tom Bain," said the schoolmaster, "listen to the lesson, will ye?" "I'm listening, sir," said the boy. "Listening, are ye?" exclaimed th master; "then ye're listening wl' on ear an eating pie wl' the other!" Loiir don Tld-Blts. Commonplace Nantes. It Is not uncommon for a Japanese girl to bear the name of a flower.

Scottish and York Rites of Masonry The following will explain to many members of the symbolic lodges the distinction between the York and Scot tish rites: The York rite consisted of but three degrees, Entered Apprentice, Fellow Craft, and Muster Mason. The rite was practised until the latter part of the eighteenth century, wheu, ac cording to Mackay, Dunckerlay dis membered the third degree by elimin ating the secrets of the Royal Arch. There is not now lu existence any where any such rite as the York rite. The usually denominated such in this country is sometimes styled the "American rite," a name given to It by Muckey In all his writings. The Amer ican modification of the York rite con sists of nine degrees, namely: 1, En tered Apprentice; 2, Fellow Craft; 3, Master Mason, given in symbolic lodg es and under the control of Grand lodges; 4, Mark Masters; 5, Past Mas ter; 0, Most Excellent Master; 7, Holy Koyal Arch, given iu chapters and un der control of Grand chapters; 8, Koy al Master; 9, Select Master, given In Councils, and under control of Grand councils. A tenth degree, called Super Exalted Master, is conferred In some councils as honorary rather than as a regular degree; but even as such it is repudiated by many Grand councils. The degrees of the Commandery, which are known also as the Degree of Chivalry, can hardly be called a part of the American York rite. The possession of the eighth and ninth de grees Is not considered a necessary qualification for receiving them. The true American York rite consists only of the nine degrees above enumerated. The Ancient and Accepted Scottish rite Is the youngest of the Masonic rites, but is the most widely diffused and popular of all rites. Governing bodies of this rite, called Supreme Councils, are to be found In almost all civilized countries, and In many of them It is the only Masonry that Is known. JAPAN'S MERCANTILE MARINE M. Duhu.ll, the French minister to Japan, publishes some interesting de tails in the Bulletin Economlque of Indo-Chlna concerning the Japanese mercantile marine. Tlfo statistics re ferred to are taken from a report is sued by the Japanese minister of com munications, and they deal with the steady Increase iu the number of steamers and sailing vessels In the Jap anese merchant service during the last four years: Steam- Ton- Sail'g Ton ships, age. ships, age.

This Is a striking rate of progress and one rarely met with In the case of other countries, especially if the In crease In the number of large steamers Is taken Into account. In fact. In 1800 Japan possessed only one merchant steamer of a tonnage exceeding 5,000 tons, but at this moment It possesses twenty-one steamers whose Individual tonnage Is above 5,000 tons. In proportion as the volume of ship ping has grown bo there bus been an Increase In the number of seamen available for manning the ships, and It Is to be remarked that Japan can provide its own skippers and naval en gineers. At the end of last June, says the London Globe, the number of ship's officers with captain's certificates and of engineers was 15,412, of whom 15,107 were Japanese and only 3(4 were foreigners. The number of en gineers sewing lu the mercantile ma rine of Japan was 2,701. ANDREW D. WHITE. Ambassador to Germany Who Leaves the Diplomatic Hervice. The American State Department loses the services of a highly esteemed diplomat by reason of the retirement from official life of Andrew D. White, ambassador to Berlin. Dr. White has enjoyed the marked esteem of the Gentian people, and has thus been In a position to smooth away many of the unpleasant controversies that are constantly springing up be tween the people of two great commer cial nations. When he first went to Germany ns minister In 1870 be bore with hlin the prestige of his educational work In the United States und the ex perience of his labors as a member of the New York Legislature. Ho reached a congenial atmosphere at once, and, while attending to the Interests of his government, refreshed his memories of student life In Germany and made the acquaintance of many celebrities. Not only was he personally acceptable to the Germans, but his ministry fell ou n time when fhe relations between the United States and Germany were un clouded. Nearly two decades jessed away, and Dr. White returned to Berlin, this time wltb tbe added privileges of an am bassador. It was the year before the Spanish war. The Berlin he knew wus no more; the Berlin he found was far larger, cleaner, better paved and more vigorously policed. The greatest change of all was the attitude of press and public toward the United States. This had become embittered through com mercial rivalry and the war of tariffs, and aggravated by a rlslug sympathy between England and the United States, so that the slightest pretext was enough to bring into sharp relief the underlying irritation. When the trouble with Spain broke out It was in the nature of things that the potent official class In Germany should believe In the people who had a large standing army and a more than respectable navy; it was expected that by land and sea the United States would suffer at first a number of serious disasters be fore she could set enough experienced soldiers and sailors on a war footing to defeat the Spaniards. The situation was one that required In the American ambassador the greatest experience, knowledge of the people and coolness. Irritated because In many respects our tariff works to the disadvantage of German exports, and enraged because German colonies remain uncolonlzed and emigration to America continues, the press and public of the fatherland seized on the Spanish war as the oeca- ANDREW D. WHITE. slon to ventilate Its spite and soothe Its spleen. Ambassador White had hardly been a year In his place before he found himself confronted by Germany pre dicting the success of the Spanish arms and making no pretense of wishing the United States well. It was not a grate ful office to stand between two nations apparently distrusting and disliking each other to the top of their bent. For tunately he has been aided by the German government, which has always preserved a friendly attitude toward us. In 1809 he was appointed one of the delegates to represent the United States in the international disarmament con ference at The Hague. Side-saddles were first introduced in 1388.

With the money they earned them selves two brothers, Jung-John and Jung-Fine, Chinese, have paid for a course of Instruction In the Academy of Fine Arts In Philadelphia. They pre sented themselves for enrollment In the class formed February 3, and since then have applied themselves diligently to tbelr studies, making rapid progress. The "Mandolin Quartet." A Northern woman who has a winter home In one of the Southern States tells many amusing stories of her experi ences with the negroes of that region. Not long ago she wished to give a lit tle entertainment to some New England guests, and bethought her of a mando lin quartette of which one of her serv ants had talked to her on many occa sions. She therefore commissioned the maid to ask the quartette to come to the house and piny for her guests. The next evening three coal-black men bearing banjos appeared at her pi azza, and one of them announced him self solemnly as "de lender oh de ninn d'lln quartette." "But where Is the fourth musician?" asked the lady. "We's nil dere Is," said the lender, with pride. "We's de mand'lln quar tette." "But aren't those banjos you have In your hands?" feebly Inquired the lady. "Yas'm," said the man, patiently, "ynsm. Here's three ob us, an' wo pluy de banjo, lint we's de mand'lln quar t ot te."

They tell us of the good old tim The happy long ago Alas! the world to-day is filled With nothing much but wot! Back in the blissful, lovely days. When all things were so nice, No icemen's wagons rumbled, and The people had no ice. Back in the happy, hapy days When people were so blest, When life was worth the living, M The world was at its best, Men didn't turn the faucets on When they went home at night And plunge as we plunge into tubs Ail smooth and clean and white. The good old days, the fair old days, Ere awnings had been made, How sweet it must have been, when If Was ninety in the shade, To sit beside a window where The sun was shining through While from unsprinkled streets the dual In choking volumes blew! How glad they must have been who lives' In those old, happy days, When everything was done by hand In good old-fashioned ways. When smoky candles pierced the gloom And babies yelled at night Because there were no safety pins To give their souls delight. Ah! happy, happy days long past, When all the world was gay, Ere window screens had been devised To keep the flies away, When people slept on corded beds And had their visions rare While glad mosquitos took their fill What happiness was there! S. E. Riser, in Chicago Record-Herald, CAVE DWELLERS IN CHINA. A Large Number on Hill Slopes Along the Yellow Hiver. The fact has escaped attention until recently that there are many cave dwellers along a part of the Hoang Ha or Yellow river. It happens that they are found on that part, of the rivet where the bridge on the railroad which Is to connect Pekin with Hankow on the Yantse Is to be built, and August Slosse, a Belgian engiueer who lived among them for six months while mak ing studies for the railroad In that re gion, has been telling some facts about the troglodytes. Along the banks of the river the peo pie live in clay huts, but higher up, among the hills, only a short distance from the stream, they make for them selves permanent habitations dug la the hillsides. There are many villages of these caves, not only the habitations, but also the temples, the shops and the storehouses for grain being noth ing more than these dark artificial caves. Many of the caves are nearly as spacious as the smaller New York flats. They are about nine feet high, ten to twelve feet in width, and hava a depth of fifty to sixty feet. They ar dark and gloomy abodes, but the peo ple who live in them think they ara much preferable to the clay huts In which their neighbors live on the rivet bank. No adornment of the iuterior is attempted, excepting in the temples, whose walls are whitewashed and cov ered with rude paintings in lively col ors, that under the bright light which Is constantly burning gives these sa cred rooms quite a gaudy appearance. The only particular advantage the un derground rooms seem to have Is that they are cool in summer and warm in winter. The Inhabitants are gentle and even timid, and Mr. Slosse said that, be ing unaccustomed to seeing whites, they almost invariably disappeared in to their caves when they saw any of his party approaching. It was curious to see them at a distance working In their little fields above or below theli dwellings, only to find not a soul in sight upon nearer approach. They would all mysteriously sink into the ground, and apparently there were no human beings for a mile around, though undoubtedly there were thousands of the troglodytes In their burrows listen ing at their doors for the footfalls of the Intruding strangers. New York Sun. The President's Church. The head of 80,000,000 of people wor ships in what Is probably tbe smallest city church In the United States. The dimensions of the little building are 20x51 feet. It Is a quaint miniature ot a chapel, with a tiny, though orthodox, steeple. Otherwise It Is bare of or namentation, within or without. Save for their pine board backs, Its cush lonless pews are like the rough-hewn benches of frontier schools. No carriages roll up to the Presi dent's church. He himself Invariably walks. And there Is no hint of half hcartedness nor backsliding in hia tread, for his sturdy gait serves the President In his Sunday pilgrimages as well as his secular tramps to Cabin John's bridge. The little German Reformed church has a membership of 200, with sittings for only 175. Before 10 o'clock Sunday mornings visitors begin to assemble and form lu waiting line In front of the church. By dint of much crowd ing the regular congregation Js en abled to give up one-third of tbe room. In the meantime, about fifty of the throng have been admitted to the church. Now comes the president, trailing no unnecessary glory, and hur rying as If to keep a tardy appoint ment. In reality be Is alwaya prompt ly on time. Sometimes he Is accom panied by Miss Alice, occasionally by Mrs. Koosevelt, whose regular place of worship Is St. John's, and almost al ways by his side or close In tils wake skips little Archibald or Kermlt, stur dily Imitating bis father's Imperial pace.
