    WHY NEW ORLEANS
CITY 10 LOGICAL POINT FOR
WORLD'S PANAMA EXPOSITION.
Its Geographical Position and Many
Other Considerations Mark It as
Most Suitable Spot for Dedl-
' cation of Great Work.
Public sentiment has decided that
Jtho completion of the Panama Canal
In 1915 shall bo celebrated with a
jpreat International Exposition in
fwhloh all the nations of the world
day participate ; and the question of
[ where this Exposition Is to bo hold
( will be settled by Congress at Ita approaching
preaching session.
New Orleans and San Francisco
jare contesting for the honor of holdIng -
Ing this Exposition , and both cities
have guaranteed Immense sums of
money as an evidence of their ability
to finance BO great an enterprise.
An Exposition worthy of the term
' "World's Fair , " such as Now Orleans
proposes to build , will bo a great ed
ucational movement. Its success as
euch , however , will depend entirely
upon the percentage of our popula
tion who can secure Its educational
Advantages , this in turn , depends up
on Its location , as the time In travelIng -
Ing to and from the Exposition , and
the cost In railroad and Pullman
fareb , are the most Important factors.
Considering these matters , Now
Orleans' claims to being the "Logi
cal Point" for this Panama Exposi
tion , seem to bo fully substantiated
by the following facts :
Now Orleans Is 500 miles from the
center of population in the United
States. San Francisco is 2,500 miles
distant therefrom.
Within a radius of 500 miles from
Now Orleans there are 17,500,000
( people. Within the same radius from
Ban Francisco there ore only 2,000,000.
Within a radius of 1,000 miles from
New Orleans , there are 05,000,000.
Within the same radius from San
( Francisco there are only 6,000,000.
At an average of 900 miles from
New Orleans , there are 70 of our
principal cities with a combined
population of 20,000,000. Averaging
800 miles from SanjfJFranclsco there
We only 8 large cities , with a com
bined population of just 1,000,000.
Tlie average distance of all thcsa
cities to New Orleans Is 792 miles ,
to San Francisco 2,407 miles.
Over 75 per cent , of the people of
tha United States could go to an
iExposltlon there at an average ex
pense for railroad faro of $12.50 , as
against an average of $37.50 to the
Pacific Coast ; and for several mil-
Jlons of our people , the Pullman
ifaro and Dining Car expenses alone ,
fcor a trip to San Francisco , would
amount to moro than all their trans
portation expenses for a trip to New
Orleans.
. This Is an important public ques
tion to be settled by Congress at the
session which convenes In December.
Many of our readers will wish to
\ Visit this World's Panama Exposi
tion , and If held In New Orleans a
great many more could spare the
time and money for the trip than
could go to San Francisco. There-
Tore , we urge our readers to write to
the two senators from this State and
the congressman from this district ,

HAPPE
' 49ers Going Into History , Unwept
/i HICAGO. The ' 49 * of Callfor-
V nla gold fever fame are passIng -
Ing Into history. The epoch of
which they are survivors Is closed
nnd the last of thorn nro becom
ing too feeble to como to the an
nual reunion which has ben held in
Chicago on "admission day" 'each
year for the last twenty years.
A notice reluctantly admitting those
facts was Issued recently by Secre
tary George W. Hotchklss , the young
est of the California gold hunters ,
who at the ago of sovcnty-nlno Is in
too feeble health to take charge of a
convention. The entire executive
committee of the organization ap
pointed last year Is either dead or
under a temporary disability prevent
ing them from serving , and half of
the fourteen pioneers who attended
last year's meeting have since died.
A heroic effort to get trace of all
sur Ivlng pioneers In the middle west
resulted In the return "not found" of
half of the hundred letters sent out
by Mr. Hotchklss , and , while ho hopes
to find a few ' 49ers for a meeting
on "discovery day , " January 18 , the
secretary said sadly that In ten years
they would all be gone nnd nothing
but printed pages could tell of a
movement whoso like the world can
never see again.
"It was a picked lot of young men
who reached California In these
days , " ho declared. "Only these who
had the grit to spend months nt sea
or across Indian-Infested plains nnd
mountains succeeded In getting there.
The people of today do not know how
much tholr country owes to the ' 49-
ors. They did moro toward the de
velopment of the United States than
the men who fought in the revolution
or any .other single group of men.
Most of them were very young. The
man among them who was over twon-
ty-llvo was rare. And they did not
get rich. The men who came after
ward on the railways , with capital
and improved mining methods , or (
who went Into real estate were the
ones who reaped fortunes.
The pioneer who got enough for his
railway faro nnd $1,000 moro with
which to buy a farm considered him
self lucky. Thoao who cnmo after
ward on the railway wo do not con
sider real pioneers. They are not
eligible to our society.
"Wo were privileged to take part
In an epoch of history unllko any
thing that had ever gone before , and
It Is something whoso llko can never
bo seen again. There may be other
countries still to bo developed , but
there Is no place loft In the world
where such a spreading of clvlliznj
tlon over an enormous wilderness can
take place In so few decades as It
did In the western United States.
The ' 49ers , ns they went west In
their pralrlo schooners , saw miles
upon miles of fertile country whose
existence had been scarcely known ,
and they were the most Important
factor in developing the entire west. "
Puzzle to Trace the Lost Pennies
YUH
UTTLE
SiJR
P HILADELPHIA. What becomes of
1 the vast volume of copper pennies
that are turned out each year by the
government ? They are never called
In and redeemed like some kinds of
currency and coins , but they seem to
disappear as fast as they are stamped
and put In circulation.
It is unusual If the date on any of
the pennies In a man's purse at the
end of the day is over ten years back ,
yet the Philadelphia mint , which coins
all the copper pennies , sends out in
some years as many as $1,000,000
worth of them to the trade centers
100,000,000 , one-cent pieces. If laid
flat , edge to edge , In a row they would
reach more than one thousand miles.
And still there are some sections of
the country where the penny is little
known.
In many of the mountain districts of
the south the "York shilling. " 12V
cents , Is still spoken of In trade , but
no ono ever hears the one-cent piece
mentioned. In many towns In the
south and west the tradesmen offer
nothing for n penny , a live-cent pur
chase is the smallest that can bo
made. But of late there have been
moro demands for pennies from the
west , and the government experts
have declared that this Is a sign of
increased frugality.
In the east , the chief use of the
penny , outside of filling the child's
bank and buying the dally paper , is
for the purchase of chewing gum and
one-cent candles. The Increase In the
number of penny-ln-the-slot phonographs
graphs and moving picture machines
In the last few years shows another
way to which the public has taken to
get rid of Its pennies.
Uncle Sam takes In many pennies
for stamps nnd post cards , and many
of them flow Into the contribution box
In the churches and religious societies.
But all these ways In which the penny
Is put to use does not explain where
they eventually go or what makes
them disappear In such vast quantities
every year. Even the government
coinage experts do not give a satisfac
tory answer to the problem.
Circus Lemonade Tabooed in Kansas
pOPEKA , Kan. Dr. S. J. Crumblno ,
1 secretary of the Kansas board of
health , has put his ofllcial foot Into
the mixture always present nt cir
cuses , fairs , Fourth of July celebra
tions , picnics and other gatherings of
a llko nature. This mixture is known
as lemonade according to the barker
who spiels before the refreshment
stands. Generally It Is something that
looks a llttlo llko lemonade because
there Is a lemon peel In the tub , hut
It hasn't the taste of the refreshing
beverage mother makes.
Since the memory of man runneth
not to the contrary , the one chief de
light of the small hey and girl and the
big boy and his sweetheart has been
to drink circus lemonade at the circus
or picnic.
No one knows who Invented the
glad refrain of the lemonade stand ;
barker , who In stentorian tones , calls :
"Lomo , ' lemo , lemonade ,
Made in the shade ,
Stirred with n spade
Five cents n big glass ! "
These things have been among the
sights and sounds of all picnics , cele <
bratlons and fairs and circuses slnco
Kansas became a stato. But no moro
will ono hear these sounds or drink
the "lemonade" about Kansas unless
the dispenser has real lemonade to
sell. The state board of health has
put a damper on the nolso of the
barker because the board of health
has ruled that a tub of water , in which
Is put some tartarlc acid and sacchar
ine and the peel of a lemon Is not lem
onade , but the Imitation article , and
cannot bo sold ns the real thing.
In Kansas all lemonade offered for
sale must bo made from the juice of
lemons , water and sugar only. Imita
tion lemonade can only be made from
citric acid and sugar nnd water. The
use of the most common materials for
making fake lemonade , tartarlc acid
and saccharine , is absolutely prohibit
ed In this etato.

The Lid Put on Tight m New York
YORK. Spurred on by Acting
NEW
Mayor John Purroy Mitchell , Po-
llco Commissioner William A. Baker
has caused several raids to bo made
on the gambling joints of this city ,
and the lid 1ms been Jammed on so
tightly that $1,000,000 of capital In
vested In such places is Idle just now ,
whllo the owners nro wondering "what
next ? " Impatient over the voxiug delay -
lay , Acting Mayor Mltchel in a letter ,
following several raids , has put squarely -
ly up to Commissioner Baker all re
sponsibility for the non-enforcement
of laws against gambling and vice. Ho
charges the police with being grossly
derelict in their duties , and declares
that the situation bis secret service
men report could not exist without
police connivance. There la panic In
the ranks of the gamblers ad well as
with the police. I
Slnco the shooting of Mayor Gnynor
placed him at the head of affairs Act
ing Mayor Mltchel has received many
complaints. Some were appeals from
mothers who declared that tholr sons
were losing money in gambling places ,
ami ninny were specific In their char
acter.
Men from the ofllco of the commis
sioners of accounts , the secret service
department of the city government ,
found for Mr. Mltchol the violations
of the law. The raids began and keys
were soon In the doors of 40 gambling
places along the Great Whlto Way be
tween Thirty-second and Sixty-ninth
streets , and $1,000.000 of Invested cap
ital went out of business. The mana
gers who were not crating their rou
lette wheels , their faro layouts and
their Klondyko sots In preparation for
the exodus , were mournfully parading
the streets In the vicinity of their
houses , warning away prospective cus
tomers. It was the saddest day the
gamblers have known since the Ag-
uow-Hart racing bills went Into force.
IN SANTO DOMINGO
FILIPINO CITY UNLIKE ANY OTH.
ER IN ISLANDS.
Buildings of Stone and Streets Called
and Paved Native Women Lift
Their Cogon Grass Hats In
Salutation.
The capital of our northernmost
province , Santo Domingo do Dasco or
the Island of LJatnnes , Is an Interesting
place. The route of our transport !
HOB a few hours steaming west of the
group , passing between them and th
Island of Formosa on their way te
Nagasaki , yet comparatively few
Americans have visited this group ol
Islands , " said lr. Louis Ottofy , who
has recently returned from this par !
of the archipelago.
"Santo Domingo hns a population ol
about 2,000 , and Is entirely different
from any other town in the Philip
pines. In the first place , nil tlu
buildings are of stone and white
washed. The roofs are mndo of cogoi
grass .closely trlmmca so as to af
ford no purchase to the severe ty
phoons which sweep over the Islands
"Tho streeto nro about twelve feel
wide , many of them paved with stone
Stone walla extend along both sides
of the streets their full length , giving
them the appearance of lanos. The
walls arc about three to llvo foot In
holght , broken at Intervals for en >
trances to the yards , which In turn
nro separated from each other by
stone walls. Most of the yards were
clean and exceptionally neat and at
tractive.
"Tho provincial building , prosl-
dencla , school house , church and the
parochial school are all built of stone ,
neatly whitewashed , and the grass-
covered plaza , fenced ny a low stone
wall , was the acme of neatness.
"Unlike most Filipino towns , there
were no pigs or goats at largo ; they
are confined to wullcd-ln sections below -
low the level of the streets. I no
ticed hut few dogs and they seemed to
be well fed. There Is not a silicic
Chinaman lu the town ; In fact , for
that matter not ono on any of the
Islands among a population of about
8,000. There were but five whlto men
there , the priest , who had been there
for 27 yearn ; the governor , who I
was told Is a Spaniard ; two Span-
lards who are cattle buyers , and ono
American connected with the bureau
of public works.
"There Is not a single store on the
town. The solo industry Is the rais
ing of cattle , which are called for by
steamers from Aparrl or Manila.
When one of the steamers anchor ?
there the cattle are paid for In cash ,
ranging from $15 to $40 a head. Some
of the residents then take the steam
er for the first port on the Island of
Luzon , bring some onions and garlic
with them and do the purchasing fo ?
themselves and their friends.
"Tho women wear a peculiar head'
dress made of cogon grass to protect
them from the sun and rain and with
out ono exception each ono lifted It
In salutation. For three months of
thoyear * the islands are typhooni
swept and no steamer can approach
them , and nt other times , though a ,
regular mall service Is now estab
lished , they are shut off from outside
contact. " Manila Times.
Children's Shoes.
Children are often made uncomfort
able by being obliged to wear shoes
that are either too largo or too small.
The mistake Is made In buying. An
experienced shoo man who had made
children's shoes a special study ad
vises that the child wear thick stockIngs -
Ings when trying on shoes. In many
cases the child will wear his "best"
hose , which are thinner than those
for every day , and then the now shoes
will bo a trlllo too tight when worn
with the thicker pair. Buy as good
leather as you can afford , but It Is
not wlso to buy the most expcnslvo
shoes , for the child may outgrow
them. The shoo dealer above quoted
says that a shoo with a wide , flat ,
low heel Is better for a child than
the hcelless shoo , since children
usually put the heel of the foot clown
hcavfly when walking.'reach chil
dren to take care of tholr shoes
When the shoes have been wet they
should bo wiped dry , stuffed with
paper to hold their shape , put In a
warm place and rubbed with vaseline
to keep the leather soft.
Stage Fright.
The curtain rose for the first act of
"Thrilling Dangers , " a three-act
drama , which was about to be pro
duced before a large audience In ono
of Manayunk's small theaters.
"Now , Swlfty , " said the stage man
ager to a keen and ardent young ama
teur , "It Is your turn to go on the
stage. All you have to say when the
pistol Is Hred by the villain , is 'Hark ,
'tis the pistol. ' You have no other
worda at all. Now , my boy , do your
self proud. "
With these words from the stngo
manager "Swlfty" stalked toward the
stngo. Likewise , the villain entered.
"Swlfty" stood In the wings petri
fied with stngo fright. The sharp and
constrained crash of a pistol shot
snioto upon his ears.
"Good heavens ! " ho cried , rushing
ou the stngo. "what's that ? "
Getting Down to Business.
"They say every man baa hli
price. "
"Yes , I've heard so. "
"You have yours ? "
"I suppose so. "
"What Is your price ? "
"How much have you got ? "
