CSCASTORIA. lisse The Kind You Have Always Bougt sua KeAT [yo BROS., Butler, INSISTS ON-PUNCTUALITY. President Roosevelt Insists That Em- ployes of White House Shall Be on Time. Punctuality will be the order of the day at the white house hereafter, and it is quite certain the employes there will not keep the president waiting in the future, President Roosevelt will not tolerate delays in matters in which he is interested, and he be- came somewhat impatient the other afternoon after waiting fully half an hour for his carriage, which did not arrive. Tiring of the delay, the president hurried downstairs, through the Tif- fany doors, to the portico and de- manded that his carriage should be on hand promptly. He entered the modest government equippage used by Secretary Cortelyou and drove off. The president nad an appointment to meet a friend in the suburbs, from which point they were to start for a cross-country walk. The presi- dent was clad in a Norfolk jacket, buttoned to the chin, a pair of cord- uroy knickerbockers, yellow leather leggings, and a rough rider hat, turned up in front, in the most char- acteristic way. The president looked every inch the rough rider and the personification of the famous car- toons, ©‘ The crisp fall days have caused the president to abandon horseback rid- ing as a regular thing, and he varies the recreation by a drive or a cross- country walk. On these walks, which are several miles in length and at a brisk gait, the president is always accompanied by one of his friends, ! who enjoys the outing as much as does the president. When the president goes walking in the suburbs he attires himself in the proper costume, drives out be- yond the city limits, leaves his car- riage, and, after enjoying the exer- cise, which he needs, he returns to his carriage, which is in waiting, and drives to the white house. OUR INTERNAL COMMERCE. In Many Respects It Is the Most Re- markable in the History of the Country, The internal commerce of the v ts S Ny eC e quarters of the commercial year is in many respects the most remar able in the history of the countr internal trade, while in some fea- tures there is a decline from the high tide of activity for the corre- sponding period of a year or two ago, Thé monthly summary .of the treas- ury bureau of statistics reports that the trunk-line movement of flour from Chicago points during four weeks of September reached an aver- age of 90,842 barrels. For the first time in the year one week's grain movement fell below 1,000,000 bush- els. The provision trade shows the highest weekly average of the year, being 31,196 tons per week, At the five chief live stock markets in the west the receipts for nine months ending September 30, were 5,296,356 cattle, 13,413,669 hog 1 331,155 sheep, gating 23,9 head of these three kinds, compared with 22.229.971 head for the like pe- riod of 10 Chicago received 213,118 cars of the 200,493 cars first nine months of 1900. s arrivals of both cattle s_were larger than for the p r to Sep er 30, Omah packing industries econ- sumed 2,681,431 head of cattle. hows and sheep. avainst 2,5 head last year to September 30.- The corre- sponding ficures for St. Joseph are 2,029,406 head and = 1,580,891. Nine months’ receipts at St. Louis in 1901 2,903,045 and 2,019,652 head for DEKIES NEGRO IS HUMAN. Manager of Bible House in St, Louis Escapes Jury Duty on Most Unasual Ground. In Judge Douglas’ division of the cir- cuit court the other day Robert S. Mc- Callen, manager of the American book and Bible house, 211 North Seventh street, St. Louis, made the statement when examined as to his qualifications to serve on a jury in a case where a negro woman is suing the Suburban railway for $5,000 damages: “T do not believe a negro is human. I do not think he has the same rights as a white man, and I frankly siate that if I went on this jury I wou'd do so with a violent preiudice against the plaintiff because she is black, and therefore, according to my notion, not entitled to the same privileges and im- munities that a human being is.” McCallen was excused from jury duty. Kite for Life-Saving Line, Capt. Brossard de Gorbigny, of the French naval reserve, has just invent- ed a kite to replace the rocket ap- paratus for establishing communica- tion between wrecked vessels and the shore. The kite is collapsible and can be flown in the roughest weather. An ingenious arrangement renders it possible to deflect it 45 degrees from the direction of the wind. Once over the spot where the cord is to be dropped an appliance, consisting of a sharp-edged ring, is sent along the kite string and cuts the attachment, thus causing the cord to fall. Would Marry Santos-Damont, Among the results of M. Santos-Du- mont’s feats are many offers of mar- tiage. Two very eligible Frenchwom- en have offered their hands and bearts on the condition that he give ap ballooning. An American girl q@ekes an offer also, but says he may TRADE OF NATIUAS. Comparative Statement Which Is Full of Sugzestive Interest Tables Showing the Exports and Im- ports of Thirty of Leading Coun- tries of the World — United States in the Lead. An accurate measurement of the commerce of the principal countries of the world at the present time is afford- ed by some figures published by the treasury bureau of statistics in the September number of the Monthly Summary of Commerce and Finance. The statement is in the form ofa table showing the commerce of 30 leading countries of the world during such part of the fisca! year of each of the countries as is available from their latest official reports. Owing to the fact that the fiscal years of the coun- tries differ in their dates of termina- tion, the statement is in some cases for a six months’ period, in other cases for eight, aud in other eases for 11 or 12 months. In order to furnish a basis for comparison of the volume of the commerce of the various countries the bureau of statistics gives the aver- age monthly import and export dur- ing the part of the fiscal year covered in the statement for each of the 30} countries in question, The table which follows shows the of the ten countries in which the ex- ports exceed the imports in that part of the current fisea! year for which fig- | ures are now available: Average per month during 1 ' ts.

ARNOLD'S JAPANESE WIFE. Sir Edwin Cared for by His “Light of Asia.” The Oriental marriage that so shocked Sir Edwin Arnold’s family and friends a few years back is prov- ing the blessing of his declining years. Old, blind and paralytic; disgraced by a misereant son, the billows of trouble have almost the distinguished author. Yet through it all the little J panese bride whom he took e! years ago in Yokohama has stood faithfully and steadfastly by him. She is held by none of the vows “0 love, honor and obey, to cherish in sickness and in health,” imposed by the stately English ritual of the e- tablished chureh, Only a Japanese tea-drinking marked her assumption. of the wifely obligation, ‘So horri- bly heathenish, you know,” Edwin's aristocratic English friends declared, witb a shrog of their shoul- ders Yet many a woman with a fair Bn- glish face and a family of ancient overwhe!med ven or r | inenge has proven less true to nits average monthly imports and exports | Ri ee sndtan riage vows, His “Light of Asia,” as Bir Edwin fondly calls her, loves him devotedly aud nurses him tenderly, They are inseparable Always at his sive, she anticipates every wish before he can express it) She becomes literally bis other self, and mitigates the terrible affliction “Lam blind,” Sir Edwin tells his trieuds in speaking of his wile, cand yet Lean see, Tam chained b tutirmities to one spot, and yet Lhave her solieitous care my leet that carry me everywhere” It isa fact that all of her faculties the little brown-skinned worn de votes to Sir Edwin's use as i ches were his own, She is nuree, secre tary, business agent and contideutiol Turk Eeypt Denmark Cuba Cape of Gor Norway au Porturat .. + 14 4 Philippine Tslands... ang Greece v4... Tope FUTURE OF THE AUTOMOBILE. At Anniversary Dinner of Club at London Peclared That Machine Has Come to Stay, At the anniv rsary dinner of the Automobile Club of Great Britain and Ireland, to commemmorate the completion of the fifth year since the light locomotives on highways act of 1896 came into operation, just held at the Hotel Metropole. some inter esting speeches were delivered on au- tomobiling in England, the difficul- ties attending it, and what ought to dene—to—render—it—more ar, says the New York Herald’s London representative. Mr. Roger W. Wal- lace, chairman of the Automobile club, presided. Sir’ Francis Jeune, proposing “His majesty’s govern- ment,” said he could not forget that one at least of his majesty’s minis- ters, Mr. Arthur Balfour, had mani- fested a hearty interest in automo- biles and ,automobilists. Mr. Chapin proposed the suceess of the Automobile club and its af- filiated clubs. He said the subject of automobilism was daily becoming of more importance and interest to the public. Automobiles had come to stay, in his opinion, rightly, for un- doubtedly they had many compensat- ing uses and advantages which might become of rea] importance in relation to other present dry questions, To Beautify Washington, Senator McMillan is much inter- ested in the work of the board that was appointed last spring to outline a plan for beautifying the city of Washington by bringing into one comprehensive chain all the parks of the city, reclaiming the Anacostia flats along the eastern branch of the Potomac, and connecting all the parks with a system of boulevards. The commissioners visited Europe during the summer and are now put- ting the finishing touches upon a re- port to be submitted to congress in December. The plans of congress with regard to this park system will be enlarged, as well as simplified, by the fact that the recent consolidation of the Pennsylvania and Baltimore & Ohio Railway companies will make it possible to remove all the railroad tracks and bridges that now cross the mall, leaving a clean sweep of driveway and park from the capitol to the white house. Versatile English Nobleman, The earl of Crewe is perhaps the most versatile of English noblemen. He is noted as a writer of verse, asa bibiliophile, and as ansart connoisseur and critic. He has also held several government positions, and from 1892 to 1895 was lord lieutenant of Ire- land. One Man's Salary. Poor Schwab. It has leaked out that he gets only $225,000 a year for being president of the steel trust.
