8 NAVAL STORES CROP WILL BE LITTLE IF ANY LARGER THAN THAT OF LAST SEASON. OPINION OF MEN IN TRADE. YIELD OF FLORIDA FARMS SMALL COMPARED WITH GEORGIA TREES. Due In Large Moarurc Also to In sufficiency and Inefficiency of Hands—Tills Shortage Likely to Re Felt in E\en Greater Degree tlie Coming, Season n Sawmills Are Drawing? Largely on Tarpon tine Farms for Workmen—Factors Furor Smaller Cron. Now that the crop of naval stores for the present year is pretty nearly ail gathered, though the official year docs not close till March 31, the mem bers of the naval stores trade in all its branches are very much interest ed in trying to learn just how large the crop has been. There are no fig ures to be had, only estimates can be given, and these vary slightly. One gentleman identified with the business thinks that when the final figures shall have been secured they will show that this season's crop was greater than that of fast season by something between 7 and 10 per cent., but another authority believes that the increase will be a very small one if there is any at all, and says further that conditions are such that he ex pects the crop of the coming year will be little if any larger than that of the season now about to close. Florida's Y ield Poor. The same authority gives many in teresting facts to account for the shortage of the crop this season. He says that he has really been surprised at the very poor yield of the Florida farms which have produced very lit tle spirits in comparison with the same number of Georgia farms. One reason for this he 'finds in the quality of the Florida timber, which will not compare favorably with that of this state, and another is the insufficiency and inefficiency of the workmen em ployed. It is mainly for want of enough la bor and of skilled labor that he be lieves the crop of the next season will be a small one. The sawmills of Flor ida, he says, are demanding a large quantity of hands because of the re sumption of the lumber business on a profitable basis, and they are paying better prices than the turpentine man can afford to pay. Again the average negro prefers to work at the mill to working on the turpentine farms, be cause in the first case he works in close proximity to his fellows, while in the other he must spend the greater portion of his time by himself. Factors Advise Siiinll Crop. An even smaller crop than that made this year would please the grPat ma jority of the factors who believe that it would be to the interest of the trade as a whole. Practically all of the Sa vannah factorage firms Wave been scald ing out letters to the producers for some weeks now' pointing out the ad vantage of a smaller crop and a price above 50 cents as compared with the expense of malting a large crop at the sacrifice of much valuable timber only to get a small price after it has been marketed. These appeals have been effective, too, if one mav judge by the number of operators meetings that Wave re cently been held in many parts of the turpentine belt for at nearly, if not all of such gatherings, the idea of a les ser crop for the coming year met with the general approval. ADMIRAL SIR ERASML’S OMMANNEY. Portmouth, England, Dec. 26.—The death of Admiral Sir Erasmus Om manney, “Father of the British Navy,” marks the end of a brilliant career, begun at sea at the age of 12 years. Admiral Ommanney was born in 1814 and entered the navy in 1826. He was the last survivor of the famous battle of Navarino, in which the Tur kish fleet was destroyed in 1827. Sir Erasmus served as midshipman on the Albion, which was between two hot Arcs in the battle of Navarino. He volunteered in 1838 for the Itoss expedition to relieve the whaling fleet imprisoned in the ice of Buffln's bay. and was commended by the ad miralty for his services. He was a captain in 185l>. when he was second 8n command of Capt. Austin’s expedi tion In search of the Arctic explorer, Franklin, and was the first to dis cover traces of the lost ships after traveling 500 miles on sledges. During the Crimean War he com manded the White Sea expedition, and In 1857, commanding the British ships in Central American waters, co operated with United State* vessels in suppressing the Walker filibustering expedition. He was later in charge of the naval station i* Gibraltar. He was knighted In 1877 for his Arctic services and was made a Fel lo w of the Royal Geographical So ciety. He was one of the oldest mem bers of the Royal <eorgraphlcal So ciety and was active to the last in his scientific researches and Interest. He retired from the navy In 1874, aft er forty-eight years of active service. • ♦ ■ —— It is well known that the Empress of Ruse is has decided talent as a earl futurist Hy turns nil msinhers of fhe royal family had been victims of her part* 11—that ia, all rt e>t the t'ur, who begged to he Ire lude-l.

JOS. MAGNUS & “WITH KJROKt IN MANCHURIA.” Extracts From Frederick Palmer's Hook On the War. “That old question which we had ever asked In the months of our wait ing in c ’ mp on the way from the Yalu— 'Will Y. uropatkin stand at Liao Yang?' —was answered for the trouble of climbing to the top of a ridge by the flashing of 500 guns, like the sparks from wood when a red-hot iron Is drawn across it. That scene of armed strength, the most magnificent since the Germans were before Sedan, did not turn my thoughts to Kuropatkin but to another general, the head of the Russian railroad system. One sweeping glance told you that Prince Hilkoft had ‘made good’ with his sin gle-track railroad. "It was strange that the first great battle with modern arms should be fought in the suburbs of a Manchurian tow’n, and strange to find here on this day a tribute to a Russian nobleman because he had learned railroading from bureau to locomotive over vast expanses In America.’’ Wiir in tlie Dark. “So the enemy, in turn, undertook a night attack. Again the shrapnel bursts flashed over Hayentai after the sun went down, w’hile the rifles blazed out from the crest which had been a dead gray against the sky during the day. A Siberian regiment and a regi ment fresh from Russia—the old to steady the new under the first stagger ing blast and the new bringing ingeni ous faith in his invincibility—came w’ith drums—drums in the night! There was no artifice. The heavy Slav, like same mad giant, rushed upon skill with the rage of brutal force. A tor rent of men swept up Hayentai. They Ingulfed the Japanese who were there as the Japanese had ingulfed the Rus sians the night before. Then the fight in the dark began. The Japanese, driven back on their reserve in the village, reformed. Shell fire no longer shook their nerves or broke their ranks. The batteries of neither side might fire in the dark without firing into their own men. Hayentai w r as a debris strewn, blood-strewn, shell-torn, open arena for men and rifles—and particu larly for the bayonets on the ends of the rifles. Creeping upward like cats, the little men put their steel in the big men and swamped the Russian ad vance before its reserve could be brought Into action. In the morning the mist of shrapnel hanging over the crest was still Russian, which told us that the Japanese still held that “little hill” as vital to either side as a bridge to a roadstead.” Tlie Aftermath of nattle. “The day's fighting was finished, but not the day’s work, nor the day's drudgery, nor the day's misery. The wounded were yet to be brought in, and the dead and the fuel to burn them collected by weary limbs. The plunging fire of the Russians against their foe, struggling through the rough fields and over rougher, untilled slopes, had caused the division 600 casualties including the death of a colonel. “Late In the afternoon a deluge of rain washed the blood off the grass. The flood of water turned dry beds into dashing rivulets. The flood of slaugh ter, also settling towards the valley, passed on by the single hospital tent— already congested at daybreak from the night attack—into the village, whose population was crowded into a few houses In order that the Wounded might be crowded Into others. Through every door-way you caught a glimpse of prostrate figures and of white band ages with red spots which made them like wrapped flags of Japan. “Dripping hospital corps men brought in dripping burdens covered with blankets or with the matting in which the rice and horse fodder of the army are transported. When darkness came, the lanterns of the searchers twinkled in and out on the hill-side. Dawn found them still at work collecting stray Russian wounded, w’ho had lain suffering all night in the rain for a $1.50 a year and the glory which the Czar's service brings them. In the bushes. In the declivities between the rocks of many square acres—could ev ery fallen man be gathered? How many cries coming faintly from fever ishly dry lips and finally dying Into a swoon were Unanswered? At some future time, when a Chinese peasant stumbles over a. set of bones, the world will not be the wiser.” Jnpnn'a Real Amliltlon. "With Port Arthur and Korea in her hands Japan will have the main selfish points of the war. They furnish her a striking ground for the mightier con flict that may come in a future gen eration. Her army at home is always literally on the flank of any Russian movement in Korea. If Japan takes Harbin, she forces the Russian base back to Irkutsk. Vladivostok then must fall of its own weight. Thus the war will be ended by a blow. No one at ail familiar with the situation can, for a moment, question that Russia must maintain an army of 500.000 men in order to force Japan to Kinchow and the borders of Korea. I myself, such is my confidence in the Japanese, say that a million Is nearer the mark. “If after repeated attempts Russia falls, then from sheer exhaustion on both sides peace will come. If she suc ceeds, the line of least resistance for her by which she can re-establish her prestige in the East.

England and America cannot run their battle ships over the plains of Chih-li. The limit ‘of their power is the range of their naval guns, unless they land troops. Port Arthur with her harbor open to reinforcements and supplies is an impregnable fortress. Russia can not take Port Arthur or Korea with Japan in command of the sea. If Eng land and the United States are so far negligent of their selfish interests as ever to permit Japan to lose command of the sea, England will no longer be a power in the Far East and the United States might as well cede her Pacific coast to Mexico so far as trade or influence on the eastern shores of the Pacific are concerned. Russia’s pride is bitten deep. She will have no honest truce with the Angio-Saxons now. Our course is clear. The Korenim and Tlieir New Mns ters. "Wherever you see a blue figure on the landscape it is Japanese, wherever you see a white figure it is Korean. The Korean never washes his body and only washes his clothes occasion ally. You are in a land of coolies and corrupt officials. All spend most of the time in the street. The race itself is characteristic, listless, without color. Through the mass rides one little Japa nese artilleryman or walks one little Japanese infantryman, and the natives look at him with a kind of stupid, pre occupied curiosity. The smart visitor in uniform came only yesterday, clear ing the seas first of a European ene my. He could almost walk under the arm of one of the big Koreans, who erectly, patronizingly, saunter the street’s length and back again, pipe in hand. Yet he could clear the town by lifting his finger. Giving way to the masterful race, the native, not making even the feint of resistance, still re tains that stupidly Impassive dignity. “ ‘Let the Japanese come! We will wear white and do our hair up In knots on top of our heads, and thus you will see we lose nothing.’ ” Death anil Thirst in Mnnchnrla. “If you descended the slope into that field of kowdiang which hid our sol diers, you found yourself in the situa tion of a botanist who is studying a single flower Instead of one who ob serves a landscape. You found blood and men and ripening grain. The wounded were in the farmhouses; the dead were being burned by weary de tails. The heat was the steady heat of the season when the milk of the corn is turning to flour. The rows be tween the kowliang were like the closed cabin of a catboat which rests on a glassy surface in a midday sun. Over head the tassels now and then would move a little with a milky warm but relatively cool breeze, as tantallzingly out of reach as heaven itself. To lift your head was to be taught humility by the bullets. “As the line crept forward there were only stalks ahead of It and stalks behind it, and the guide of its advance was the enemy’s fire. The guns roar ed like thunder—an infantryman could count the reports from friendly mouths as an offset to the shrapnel bursts that clipped through the kowliang like hail. Details went and came with water, water, water—a Chinese well, a ditch, anything that was wet. Sanitary reg ulations passed Into limbo In the su preme hour of a great battle. The sufferers must drink and a canteen full seemed only a swallow. If I appear to indulge in figures of speech, I ask you to take three days to crawl three miles through a Kansas cornfield in 'August, being shot at all the time. When you have done that on eight sen a day, probably you will think that the land conquered belongs to you, re gardless of title-deeds.” NEW WONDERS OF ELECTRICITY. If ll.e Government Owned the Tele graphs, Short Letters Could lie Transmitted ns Cheaply as by Post. Walter Wellman in Success. In electricity there is nothing more interesting than its application to steam railways. Engineers of high standing believe that the day is near at hand when most of the larger rail ways will dispense with steam locomo tives and employ electrical motive pow er, either by motors fed from third rails or overhead conductors, or by electric locomotives. However this may be, electricity is already coming into use on steam railways. The New Central is spending $40,000,000 for elec trification of its metropolitan terminal, partly for the purpose of dispensing with smoke and coal gas in the tun nels, and partly to obtain higher speed of tf-ams. It is easy even for a layman to un derstand the superiority of electricity as a motive power In urban and subur ban transportation. With a locomotive, traction is secured from the weight of the driving wheels. With the multiple unit system the weight of every car in the train may, if desired, b? put upon .he drivers. In service with fre quent stops, speed Is secured by a high rate of acceleration, and a ranid ac celeration requires power and weight. In New York's new subway a train of eight cars will carry motors which may. at any desired moment, exert a tractive force equal to that of a half dozen large steam locomotives. Of great promise is the motor which uses an alternating current without sub-station transformers. If it proves EGGS. EGGS. Ask your dealer for fresh country egg s.

The application of electri cal railway devices to all sorts of In dustrialism affords material for a book all by itself—ranging, as it does, from the great electrical locomotive and the huge overhead crane to the broiling of a beefsteak or curling of my lady's hair by means of the magic current. In almost every workshop electrical tools may be found. In these, and in compressed-air appliances, may be found the greatest advance in shop mechanics during the decade. There is anew automatic or mechanical tele graph sender, transmitting messages forty times s fast as a human opera tor. In fact, it is well known that science and Invention have, during the last ten years, made telegraphy so easy and cheap, that, If w’e had in this country a government or postal tele graph Instead of semi-public compa nies, short letters could be sent by wire almost as cheaply as by post. Un less I read incorrectly, the signs of the times, postal telegraphy is imminent in America: it is demanded by prog ress. and progress can not be denied. The automatic telephone is ira'in rapidly into use, and promises to c :rry the convenience of telephonic commun ication to hundreds of thousands who can not now afford it. The rural tele phone is growing at an amazing rate, too. and already scores of thousands of American farmers have the 'phone In their houses. —The Poet: My mail contains noth ing but rejected manuscripts!
