Thst American wage earners are mater
ially better off, both In point of Income
from their labor and of savings left after
their living coat ha been paid, than the
earners of England, Is tha opinion of
Oeorge Faith, the editor of . the London
Statist, who la now on a tout of the TTnlted
States and Canada. Mr. Palsh haa sd
dr eased hla American observation particu
larly to the answering thl queatlon on ac
count of certain specific Inqulrlea which
were put to him before he left the other
aid for thl trip, and also because of the
endless discussion which th matter of
comparative wages and living condition
Invoke on both aide of the water.
To representative of the New York Time
ha consented to talk about the savings of
th American people as the matter ap
peared to the trained observation of an
Englishman.
"Everyone acquainted with the progreae
of the United State." said Mr. Palah, "I
truck by the Ignorance of the average
European concerning the force which have
brought thl country Into Its existing pros
perous condition and which will continue
to cause It prosperity to Increase for an
indefinite period. Not Infrequently on
reada In European Journals of the great
speculation that Is going on In New Tork
and of th danger of Investing In Ameri
can securities. Unfortunately the views put
forward by so many of th journals of
Europe are the opinion of peraona of high
place and Influence who have never troub
led to make themselve acquainted with
actual condition hare.
Mistaken Opinion.
'There can be no doubt that thoae opin
ions are made In good faith, and that many
Influential person In Europe really regard
what they would term th so-called pros
perity of America a a highly tinted soap
bubble which will speedily evaporate. It
may be said that these view hurt no one
but their possessors who are prevented by
their lack of knowledge from obtaining a
participation In th prosperity. Ntvertheles
it la of great Importance that Europe
should appreciate th true causes of Amer
lean progress and th immense rapidity
with which thla country la growing in
wealth. In trade, and In population.
"The solid, permanent and amaxlng
progress of the American people I due
first and foremost to the unfounded
natural resources of the country; aecond
to th hard and efflolent work done by
practically every cltlsen of the country
either In producing the rlohea which
nature has bestowed so plentifully or
in manufacturing them Into article of
consumption or in distributing them to
consumers; third, to th , encouragement
which everyone receive to give hla best
work and to make auggestlons for get
ting good result from th labor and cap
lul expended; fourth and thla la a mat
ter of very great Importance In the prog'
res of the oountry to th liberal partici
pation which everyone enjoy In the gen'
eral prosperity. In Europe too frequently
it 1 happen that the wage paid to em
ploye are not more than sufficient to
keep body and soul together. Here, the
general principle seems to be to pay
rate of wage which will enable the wage
earner to secure a sharo both of th
uecesslttsg and of th comfort of llf
and at th same time to save oonslder
bis sum from year to year. By mean
of these aavings th wage earner kecure
a ubstaniial participation in the wealth
accruing to capital over and above that
which comes to them a laborers.
Rat ! Vim,
oetore leaving lor me states I re
ceived a letter in which a correspondent
asked me to ascertain If it wa a fact
that th wage-earner of America were
really better oft than the wage-earner
of England, or1 whether the higher rat
of wage here,wa not entirely neutral
lined by th higher oost of food, clothing
and rent Since I have been her I have
made a great many inqulrlea upon thla
point, and I hav com to the conclusion
that th rat of wage in this country
is . much higher In proportion than in
Oreat Brltlan, after taking into account
th purchasing power of th wagea, and
that after meeting all expenditures the
wage-earner each year save a aubstan
Hal average sum, which they place in
mvlngs banks or which they use for the
purchase of securities, houses, land, bus!
neanestta, etc
"In answer to my question my In
formants hav surprised m not only with
the rate of wage tbey are earning, but
also with th average sums they save from
yea to year, and a number of employers
huv confirmed the statements as to the
large savings of their employee. There
cuu bs no doubt that the savings of wage
earners reach a great sum In th aggregate
and largely contribute to swell the aggre
gate earnings of the nation.
"These facts explain many things which
are otherwise Inexplicable. When It U
known that all classes. Including messen
ger and other employes, are regular In
ventors and naturally take an Interest In
securities, th phenomenon of speculative
purchases by the working classes U not so
striking a It would be If they merely came
Into th market to buy securities on margin
in a time of Inflation. Fortunately, the
Clientele of brokerage houses In this coun
try extends to all sort and conditions of
men and women, and is not confined, a
unfortunately it la with us, almost entirely
to the middle and upper classes.
Savlaas ef tha People.
"it will be rsallsed that the savings of a
nation in which practically everyone 1
able to save reach to a vast figure. An em
inent American banker of international re
pute with whom I discussed the question
if America' aavlng during my paesage
here, estimated the total saving of th
I'ulied State at nearly a 1.509, 000. ouO iS7.auq,
Out' COO) a year. Sine my arrival I hav
tought to form an independent estimate,
bastd upon a great variety of data, and I
nave come to me conclusion mat the an
nual aavtngs of this country are over
1.000.000.006 (U.O00.0U0.CO0). and that the
amount la growing steadily greater from
year to year. Thl estimate tallies with
the conclusions of government officials,
who calculate th wealth of th country In
r at about 11,006,000,000 (no.ooo.ooo.ooo),
and In 1H at C2XOuO.OUO.000 (1110.000.000,000).
an Increase In four year of about sHOOO.
or too, or an average of 1000.000,000 per an
num. The rat of tncreaae la now greater
than in the four year to 10.
"These savings are mainly Invested In
new bouse and in new buildings of various
kind and descriptions. The population of
the United Htatea t growing t the rate of
about 1.400.000 per annum, and th mere
houalng of th additional population -involve
th construction of over 900.004 new
dwellings per annum. The progress of th
United btate Involve the construction of
a great number of new houses at the upper
as well at at the tower end of the scale,
diet auly U there a natural increase la the
population of the wealthier classes, bu;
there la going on all the time a process of
xpanstnn and uplifting a process which Is
reflected In the vast numbers of expensive
houses which are erected from year to
,-ir. In the last week I have paid visits
o the suburbs of N"W Tork and Philadel
phia and found an Immense Increase In the
number of article and costly homes
rected since my Inst visit five years ago.
Maltlplyln Homes.
"What Is going on In New Tork and
'hlladelphia Is, T am Informed, taking
place In all the cities of the country and
along the sea roast, and In tho aggreKSte
the number of expensive houses that have
been and are being erected Is very great,
and th amount of capital expended upon
new houses for all classes of society
rearhe enormous figures.
"Beyond the dwelling needed to house
the Increasing population, account ha to
be taken of the Increased nine of the busi
ness premises which have to be erected
to carry on the commerce, banking:, pro
fessionals and trades of the country. The
amount of capltnl needed to construct the
lofty buildings of New Tork, of which a
argo additional number have been erected
Inc my last visit In 1901, must run Into
very large figures. Beyond the houses
and business premises needed for residen
tial, for merohantlle, bunking and com
mercial purpose, account haa to be taken
of the multitude of mills and factories of
all kinds that have sprung up throughout
the country. Having regard to the price
of bricks, of stone, and of lumber also,
which in th eestern districts is now al
most as costly a stone or brick. It Is
clear that the aggregate sum expended
each year upon building of on kind and
another la at least I400.00n.000 (83,000.000,000).
"Thl Is, of . course, irrespective of the
large sums expended upon furnishing
them, and in the cose of factories and
plants of providing them with plant and
machinery. It Is Interesting to note that
In the first eight months of the current
year the building expenditures of about
100 cities have been over flOO, 000,000, nnd
that foi the whole year they are likely
to reach 150.000,000. In the first eight
months of lost year the amount was
under fcHXtyOOO, and for the complete
year about IU0.ono.O00. This Indicates that
the building trade Is nearly tS per cent
mora active than it wa last year.
Investment Opportunities,
"In the present year the nation la en
couraged to av by th tempting oppor
tunities to invest It new savings to ad
vantage. Investor hav sought specially
to Invest their new saving In th com
mon stocks of companies offering th
prospect of expansion In profits and In
dividend. Naturally at auch a time the
holder of those stocks were Indisposed to
ell and those who desired to purchase
them hav been obliged to pay steadily
Increasing price In order to secure the
stocks. It cannot be too olearly under
stood that tha great advance in the prises
of stocks has been brought about by the
effort of persons with savings to invest
to purchase securities which they have
believed to be attractive, and that it ha
not been brought about to any great ex
tent by the purchase of speculators.
"Because of the general expectation that
the country Is In for a period of great
prosperity in which the profits of railways
nd of Industrial corporations will be very
large and because of the wide demand
for stocks by real Investors who look
forward to a period of good dividends I
expressed the opinion In my cablegram
recently that after the existing pressure
for money ia passed and there Is no
longer need for bankers to curtail their
loans another advance In prices of stocks
may take place. It Is true that the cur
rent prices of certain stocks are not war
ranted by the existing dividends that they
already discount the probable Increase of
dividend for some time to come and that
discrimination Is needed. Nevertheless
there are still a number of securities upon
which the dividend are expected to in
crease appreciably and which, having re
gard to th probable dividend they are
likely to receive, are believed to bs In
trinsically worth tlU higher prior.

Cow Kidnaped by Moneyless Swain
His Its Romance
Away.
Old Cherry, a cow belonging- to Peter
Eggler of Mormon Coul, Wis., never
knew she was to be a vtllalnesa tn a real
love story, but that Is what force of cir
cumstances made her. Thl Is how:
William Miller, a farm hand employed
near Greenfield, fell madly In love with
a neighbor' daughter. Miss Alma Will,
and, as It was his sweetheart's mandate
that he have SIM saved up before sh
would marry him. Miller, anxious to
hasten hi marriage, took rapid means to
make tha fortune,
Petr Eggler had a fine bunch of cows,
and Old Cherry was the finest of the "lot
Miller had saved up 1110 and he knew he
could get th other $40 by the sale of Old
Cherry, so onu night last week he entered
the pasture where th cow were chewing
their cud, and, selecting the finest of the
bunch, drove her to La Crosse, where he
sold her for th necessary Ho.
It was while being driven away that Old
Cherry showed what a villain she vas
by giving the swain away, or at least
helping to. Old Cherry bawled and
grunted all th way to La Crosse, as If
she knew she was going to her death, nnd
the neighbors along the route told Eggler
of this next day when the hunt for the
bovine began. It wa easy to trace the
cow to L Crosse and find the butcher
to whom she had been sold.
In the meantime Miller had returned to
Greenfield with hi 1150 Intact, and ar
rangement for th wedding Immediately
were made. The unexpected Increase In
his fortune by M0 surprised his sweetheart
and her people, but no question were
asked and every preparation was made fur
the wedding. A day before the event was
to be held, however, officer, furnished by
the La Cross butcher with a description
of th man who had sold him the cow,
came out to take a look at Miller. One
look wss enough, and tb near-groom was
taken Into custody. Shortly afterwards
h confessed to the theft and was sen
tenced to s, year' Imprisonment at Wiu
pun. ii via merry naa only gone to ier
death with her mouth shut. Miller be
lieves he could have escaped detection un
til he could have saved enough money to
hav paid Eggler and all would have heun
well. Mia Will, th disappointed sweet
htart, I prostrated with grief, and fears
are felt for her sanity. Chicago InWr

Not by Prohibitionists, but
Italian Vine Growers.

FOB THE.EE YEAItS CROPS ABE BIG
Another Billion Gallon VIntnara Ex
pected This Year, and Even High'
Per Capita Consumption of
Win Can't Dispose of It.
"People in Europe are afraid of another
wine flood this year," said Lee J. Vanoe,
secretary of th American Wine Growers'
association, who ha Just returned from
Europe, where he investigated the vineyard
Industry, especially in France and Italy.
"A ucces8ton of enormous vintages Is
largely responsible for th present crlsl In
the Italian wine trade.
"The wine crops of the last two years,
that la. In 1908 and 1907, were 1,000,000.000
gallons each. This year the vines are again
loaded with grapes, and It Is predicted that
there will be another billion-gallon wine
crop In Italy. In many plaoes the farmers
or growers do not know what to do or
where to get cooperage for their new wine.
Last year an agricultural commission
Investigated the situation, and recom
mended that the surplus and unsold wines
of poor quality be distilled Into alcohol for
Industrial purposes, and that the planting
of new vines bs restricted tn some way.
Therefore, In order to relieve th situation
the Italian government has allowed the
manufacture of alcohol without paying the
usual tax, and the taxes are now remitted
or greatly reduced on the land where the
vines are pulled out. For the Hame pur
pose most of the cities In Italy lowered
the octroi, or duty, which the farmers or
growers must pay when they bring their
wines Into town.
Annual Consumption L.rr.
While there Is a great flood of wine
there Is at the same time an Immense con
sumption of all kinds of wines In Italy.
Almost every ' man, woman and child In
Italy drinks some win every day In the
week, and every week In tha year, and the
result Is that the per capita consumption
of wine Is greater In Italy than In any
other country of the world. France not
excepted. Th figures show It to be from
thirty-eight to forty gallons per capita a
year.
But of course all the women and chil
dren do not use that quantity, so that It
It estimated that the number of gallons
of wine consumed by the Italian men Is
from fifty to fifty-two gallons a year.
or at the rate of about one gallon a week
a man, which Is more than the per capita
consumption of wine In the United Elates
for a whole year.
"The sale of wine In Italy la practically
free and unrestricted. Any man can open
a wine shop, ottteria. In Italy, without pay
ing for a license, and he pay simply a
small tax. on the quantity of wine which he
ells. That the Italian system Is better
than ours Is proved by the fact that with
the almost free sale of wine there la no
saloon question In Italy, no prohibition
crusades and no hysterical agitation
against the sale and use of wine. The
million of people In Italy, who drink
wine every day of their lives have no
uss for prohibition.

custom of drinking light wine dally at
the table with the meals.
"Our present system of putting a big
tax on the sals of wine Is absurd. The
license laws In the different states sel
dom make a distinction betwsen the sale
of wtnea and strong liquors In the amount
of tax to be paid, with the result that the
license fees for the sal of light wines have
been placed so high as practically to pro
hibit the opening of those useful and de
sirable places which are found all over
Italy and Europe generally.
"The places for th al of wine in
Italy are of many different kinds and run
all the way from the high class hotel and
pastlccerla to the oeteria, or common wine
shop. The restaurants in Europe are all
conducted as much for drinking as for
eating. Thus a person who goes into a
restaurant and orders only solid food is
regarded as an unprofitable customer.
Some of th better class places print a
notice on the bill of fare and charge more
for food when no drink Is ordered. For
example. If you order only soup, a piece
of meat and some cheese, and no wine,
10 or 15 cents would be added to your
bill.
"Next to the restaurants In Italy are the
trattoria, which while they rve thing
to- eat are conducted for the ale of bev
erages. Th beat class of wins rooms called
ftaschetterle also provide meals.
Oaterles Like American Bar.
"Then there are th regular cafe, which
are patronised In the day for breakfast
and luncheon and In th evening for wine,
beer, coffee, vermouth, ices (gelato) etc.
The outerlo correspond somewhat to our
saloons, although they 'have no bars and
there is no standing up while drinking.
These places are headquarters for the
workltigmen and the common people. Tl e
quality of the place can often be JudtJ
by the prices Inscribed on a sign
outside of the shop. Thus you will see the
figures, 1, I, 3 and 4, eanlng that a half
lire of win Is sold for 1, I, t and 4 soldi
or cents.
"All over Italy they have still otlier
places under other names for the sale of
wines by the glass. Thus there la the
drosheiln, where you can get wine cr other
drinks mid a bit of cake. The cuntlna l a

WHERE IS BOONE BURIED?
Revived Controversy Over Resting:
Place of Fa mon Froatlers-
The statement made by Champ Clark
at St. Charles. Mo., recently that "It Is a
discredit to Mlssourlans that no monu
ment mark the place In Warren county
where Daniel Boone was first burled,"
has precipitated a discussion In that part
of the state on the subject of whether
Boone's body ever was removed to Ken
tucky. A committee composed of Nathaniel
Oardare, Charles W. Thoroughman, Bene
dict Thoroughman, J. H. Tuttle and Rev.
R. E. McQule of Montgomery, Mo., ha
visited his burial place, and after gather
ing all Information available relative to
the remains of this pioneer, decided unani
mously that the body of Boone was never
moved to Kentucky.
The delegation which came out from
that state to remove the bddy In 1845 was
composed of strangers, and there being no
tombstone to mark the graves In that old
cemetery, the men made th grlevlous
error of taking back to the native state
the dust of a stranger who was buried
near the grave of Mrs. Boone. Rev. Mr.
McQule says that the mistake no doubt
grew out of the fact that Panlel Boone
and his wife were not burled side by side,
as those who rune to remove the remains
naturally expected, and were Informed.
This latter day committee found at the
grave an old rugged ton partly In the
earth, with the following verse which. It
Is said, was carved by Boone himself, with
the old knife that he so often used In
dressing game:
Remember me as you pass by,
As you are now so once waa I,
As I am now, so you will be;
Prepare for death and follow me.
It was in the summer of 1845 that the
deputation of John J. Crittenden. William
Boone and a Mr. Swaggat came to Mis
souri on the steamer Daniel Boone for
the purpose of exhuming the body of
Boone and conveying It back to Kentucky.
It Is said that they found the grave situ
ated on th land belonging to Harvey
Urlswold, who at first objected to the re
moval, as he Intended to build a monu.
ment and otherwise beautify the place.
Other neighbors and friends coincided
with Griswold and supported him In his
objection. They claimed that Missouri
had as much right to the grave as Ken
tucky, especially as the old pioneer had
selected the location of his grave and had
given such particular Instructions as to
his burial therein.
The stone house In which Boone died is
suld to have been the first stone dwelling
bouse erected in Missouri Respecting a
question as to how nnd where Boone died,
It Is found that he had a serious attack
of fever in the tumtner of at the homo
of Flanders Cuilowpy. He recovered suf
ficiently to make a visit to the House of
his son. Nathaniel Boone, on Femme
Osage creek. The children heard of his
Illness and we're desirous to see the old
man again. It Is said that he recuperated
lomewhat, and spent a f w hsppy days
In the society of his children and rela
tlv es.
One day a fine dish of weet potatoes
a dish of which he waa very fond, was
. v.- ... h.,.i!x, .,..,.,
after hsd an attack of which he nevt".
recovered. After three days' Illness he ex
pired Heptember 21, 120. h"ing .X years
old.. It is atd that lie had no f-ar of
death, although he had never Hindu any
profession of religion or united with any
church.
It has been written in history that h
died at Deei Lick with his gun In his
hands wutchlr.g for a deer.
After the old settler iased away he .vas
placed In the casket made by his own
hands and taken to the Calloway home.
The new spread rapidly of his death and
a crowd of friends collected on th day
th funeral to pay the last tribute of re
pct to the pioneer. Ills funeral sermon

In an old history of the county writ
ten by W. S. Bryant and Robert Rosi,
some very Interesting matter regarding the
effort to remove Daniel Boone's body to
Kentucky is found. Among other things
It gives the following Interesting matter
regarding Boone and what was then
thought to be successful effort to remove
the body. The writer of this history, who
spent some time in this and ndjac?nt
counties, looklnj up Information regarding
Boone's life and death, asserted that at
the time of Boone's demise, the Constitu
tional convention of Missouri was In ses
sion at St. Louis, and upon receipt of the
Intelligence a resolution was offered by
Benjamin Emmons of St. Charles that tho
members wear the usual btdse of mourn

here may be Judged from the following
Incident. When I went to buy a bottle of
whisky the other day I was told. 'We are
not allowed to sell wine or spirits over the
counter." 'What In the world do you
mean?' I asked. 'No, it must be ordered
in advance.' 'but I want the whisky at
once."
The assistant meditated, and then said
'If you go across the street and telephone
to us from the cigar shop, w can supply
you.' I telephoned, and five minute later
I had th whisky. I went for another bot
tle the next day, and found that the reg
ulations hud become more stringent. Al
though I had ordered it by telephone, I
wa. nut allowed to take It home myself.'
"I expostulated, and the wine merchant
a.ld. Hut if your son here with you will
accept sixpence for delivering the bottle
at your liouso, I could let you have the
whisky at once. My son had no objec
tion." Chicago New.

Young physicians In the smaller towns
have an Idea that appearing very busy will
help them greatly In starting practice. The
following Is told by a senator. Or. Godfrey
Hunter, of Kentucky. lr. Hunter had a
call the afternoon following the hanging
out of his shingle and started through town
In his buggy at terrific speed. A policeman
stopped the enterprising physician.
"Doctor," he said, "It is against the city
ordinance to drive at the speed you are
going. You must accompany me to the
Judge and pay your fin."
"What Is th fin?" Inquired th doctor.
"Five dollar."
The doctor' hand flew to his pockit-
'Hire ilO; I have to come bacK uai u.
' 1 going."-Buocess.
