MANY OF THEM ARE CONSIDER-

Some Intereiting Figure* Given
B. F. Yoakum In an Interview
with a New York Times
Reporter.
by
"Railroad employes, according to B.
F. Yoakum, chairman of the Execu-
tive Committee of the Rock Island-
Frisco lines, are losing every day
through the present deprefssion In
trade $1,000,000, or $25,000,000 a
month," sayB the New York Times.
"One-quarter of them, or about 400,000
men, are out of employment and are
living on their rapidly diminishing
savings.
"Construction of new lines has al-
most entirely ceased, and for every
1,000 miles of new track that are not
built 6,000 men lose permanent em-
ployment and 24,000 people a good liv-
ing.
supplies
stead of $1,250,000,000 a year.
"Mr. Yoakum has been speaking late-
ly In Texas and St. L»uls, and urged
there that the most Important element
In the present industrial conditions
are the ones who are now asking the
most pertinent questions. They have
more at stake than the owners, and
are just as capable of deciding for
themselves and taking care of their
own interests.
"The 42 cents for the employe and
the 21 cents for the bond and stock-
holder only account for 63 cents of
each dollar earned by the railroads,
but It shows the combined interests
of 2,675,000 employes, bond and stock-
holders in the railroads of the Na-
tion. Of the remaining 37 cents of
the dollar, 7 cents go for taxes and In-
surance, and the balance of 30 cents
largely for material and supplies, la
the manufacture of which labor ic
the largest item.
"The loss to the entire country on
account of Inability of railroads to
purchase supplies is as serious to the
public as the forced reduction in the
payrolls. Last year the total amount
of the railroad purchases was one and
a quarter billion dollars. At the pres-
ent time they are only buying at the
rate of one-half billion dollars per an-
num, which at this rate means a loss
UNCLE ALEXANDER'S
VIEWS
to the manufacturers and the general
The railroads ''are'" purchasing C0UDtry of more than
is at the rate of $500,000,000. In- *750,000,000 a jear, or two million
dollars a day. If to this is added the
approximate one million dollars
working day which the railroad em-
ploye is suffering of this heavy loss.
It is apparent that the business of the
country is losing at this rate approx-
was the enormous losses in wages and
the stagnation caused by the stoppage lmate'y three million dollars a day on
of the development of the country. I account °' shrinkage directly connect*
lie has considered this phase of the
present crisis deeply."
A reporter of the New York Times
sought him recently at his farm at
Farmingdale, L. I., and asked him
how he believed the railroad men of
the country would vote this year. Mr.
Yoakum declined to answer directly,
but said he could at any rate say
■what is pressing itself day by day on
the minds of the railroad men. He
said:
"Hard times are now costing rail-
road employes $25,000,000 a month
or $1,000,000 for each working day.
This decrease of the employes' pay-
roll Is approximately the same amount
as the Government's dally deficit
at Washington. The Government's

"Do you wonder why the Labor
Commissioner of the State of New York
is reporting that one-third of the
union men are Idle because there Is no
work, or that Jacob Schiff is appeal-
ing to the city officials of New York
to open up municipal work for their
relief?
"There is another phase of railroad
activity not included in the foregoing,"
Mr. Yoakum added. "It is one which
is seldom mentioned In connection
with figures dealing with employes,
wages and material. I refer to con-
struction of new railroads and more
extensive improvement of existing
ones to meet the growth of the Na-
tion's traffic. I refer to the army of

while the other $1,000,000 daily loss is
borne by the railroad employes.
"This loss In wages Indicates that
the means of living for 400,000 rail-
road men has been cut off, and that

been cut off.

such a thing as a person getting so

"To think what it means in thou-

but we should look the situation
Bquarely in the face, and each man

"The campaign orators of Septem-

there are only 1,000,000 of both bond

Emeralds.
At (ho present day most of the em-
eralds that come into the market are
obtained from the famous mines of
Miiko, In tho Columbian province o(
Buyaca. These workings are situated
on the eastern slope of the Andes,
about 70 miles to the north-northwest
of the town of Santa Fo de Bogota.
There Is another mine, called Las-
qucz, two days' journey by muleback
from Muio.
Our hired man came In with a choice
little bit of gosslp, and my Uncle Al-
exander and Aunt Hetty listened with
Interest. I was Interested, too.
"He came a flyin' out o' the house
with his suspenders steakin' out be-
hind him, an' a pot lid come after an'
hit one o' them fancy cochins of hers
an' laid it out stiff," chuckled our
hired man.
"It's an 111 wind that don't blow no
one no good," commented my Uncle
Alexander. "That ought to mean a
chicken dinner."
"Then she stood In the doorway an'
gave him the wust tongue lashin' that
you ever heard tell of,' said pur hired
man. "If there was anythin' ornery
that she didn't call him, my mem'ry
ain't what It uster be."
My Aunt Hetty made a deprecatory
noise with her tongue and teeth.
"Sech doin's!" she exclaimed.
"Oh, I dunno!" said my Uncle Alex-
ander.
"How'd y»u like me to throw pot
lids at you?" asked my Aunt Hetty.
"I e'pose you'd like that."
"We certainly ain't had chicken for
quite a spell," said my Uncle Alexan-
der. "Not since Brother Piper was
here. She didn't hit him with any-
thin', did Bhe, Preston?"
"I don't cal'late she did," replied our
hired man. "Not with anythin' that
she threw at him."
"I don't see nothin' to grin about,"
said my Aunt Hetty, severely. "I think
she ought to be ashamed of herself. I
don't hold with sech carryln's on
Standin' an' hollerin' at him so's folks
could hear her!"
"You could have heard her a mile,"
said our hired man.
"All I can say Is I wonder at her,"
said my Aunt Hetty. "She's a real
smart woman, an' turrlble neat In her
housekeepin', but that don't excuse
her actln' that way."
"I guess Eben didn't get no more
than what was nessry," said my
Uncle Alexander. "I don't know as I
blame her, myself. She's got to do
somethln' with him, an' all she's got
to do It with is her two hands an' her
tongue. Eb's too plague-taked mean
an' shif'less for any use."
"There's other ways," said my Aunt
Hetty.
"There's one other way," corrected
my Uncle Alexander. "You take a
woman like her, though, an' she ain't
got but the one. When a woman is
cross-eyed an' yaller, an' slab-sided,
an' bony, she's got to do the best she
can.
"I've took a heap o' pot Ice of fe-
males that's got the name of beln'
limber-tongued an' free with the
broom handle, an' there ain't nary one
that I can call to mind that would
take fust prize at a beauty show.
They're mostly homelier than sin hi a
sermon.
"The human man Is so constltooted
that he has got to be driven or coaxed,
one o' the two. The human woman Is
so conslttooted that she's got to coax
or drive, one o' the two. That bein'
the case, if she can't coax, by reason
of havin' a face fltten to stop a clock
an' a figger to match, she's got to get
a flow of language."
"I don't see why she can't talk de
cent, even if she ain't no beauty," said
Aunt Hetty.
"The trouble Is that she can't set
on her husband's knee and pull his
whiskers," said my Uncle Alexander
"She can't coozzle. If a woman's plump
nn' has got rosy cheeks an' bright
eyes, she can get anything she wants
by just coozlln' up to him an' talkin'
baby talk."
"I'd like to know how you found
that out," said my Aunt Hetty, tartly.
"I should think you'd be ashamed to
talk that way before a young boy."
"I ain't never ashamed to tell the
truth," said my Uncle Alexander.
"You never see a good-lookin' young
woman resortin' to hardware and
kitchen supplies to carry her point.
She don't have to. An' you don't
never see a lady like Huldah Reddlck
caressin' her husband's bald spot an'
cooin' to him. If she did he'd have
her put in an insane asylum, an' she
knows it.
"It's easier to coax, an' it's a sight
pleasanter, but It ain't everybody that
can do it, even if they wanted to.
That's the reason that I feel sorry for
Eb's wife an' make allowances for
her. That's the reason that when-
ever I hear a right good lookin' wom-
an sayin' that she can't understand
why anybody should take a flatlron
to her man, or call him out of his
proper name at the top of her voice,
I feel as if she needed enlightenln".
"It's easy for folks to set back an'
find fault with their neighbors, but If
you wasn't the good-lookin wom-
an that you are, Het, an' you had a
triflin', no-account, mean cuss like
Eben Reddlck for a husband, 'stid of
a sober, stlddy, sweet-tempered, 11b-
'ral, hard-workin", uncomplainln', sen-
sible man like me. there's no tellin'
but what you'd let loose some time
an' give him a taste o' the rough side
o' your tongue. Mebbe you'd throw
pot lids, but anyway you'd say thlnga
that wasn't compllmcnt'ry."
"You'd be s'prlsed out o' your life If
I did, wouldn't you?" said my Aunt
Hetty, sarcastically.
"I'd never get over it," said my
Uncle Alexander.
"Then you'd better put that fence
Ground my flowers that you've been
agoln' to for the last three weeks,"
said my Aunt Hetty, grimly. "I've
waited Jest about as long as I In-
tend to."
HER GOOD FORTUNE
After Years 8pent In Vain Effort.
Mrs. Mary E. H. Rouse, of Cam-
htidge, N. Y., says: "Five years ago
I had a bad fall and it
affected my kidneys.
Severe pains in my
back and hips became
constant, and sharp
twinges followed any
exertion. The kidney
secretions were badly
disordered. I lost
flesh and grew too
weak to work. Though constantly
using medicine I despaired of being
cured until I began using Doan's
Kidney Pills. Then relief came
quickly, and in a short time I was
completely cured. I am now in ex-
cellent health."

PICNIC FOR THE PUP.
Hia Devotion to Duty Rewarded by
Strange Luxuries.
A Boston bulldog owned by George
H. Clapp was so determined to cap-
ture a woodchuck which he had chased
Into its den that he followed after and
staid in the hole all night.
When the dog had got his jaws
about the enemy he found that he
could not get out owing to the small
•Ize of the animal's hole.
Rather than lose his prey the dog
retained his hold on the woodchuck
over night, and was helped out by his
master In the morning. The dog was
nearly exhausted, and revived after
feeding and drinking in a curious man-
ner.
He consumed about two quarts of
unguarded ice cream, which bad been
set aside for a party, and capped the
climax by falling into a bucket of lem-
onade.—Worcester (Mass.) Telegram
When the Little Man Scored.
A meek-looking little man with a
large pasteboard box climbed on the
car. As he did so he bumped slightly
Into a sleepy, corpulent passenger with
a self-satisfied look and two little
dabs of sidewhiskers. As the car
rounded a curve the box rubbed
against him again and he growled:
"This is no freight car, is it?"
"Nope," returned the meek little
chap with the box, "and when you
come right down to it, it ain't any
cattle car. either, is it?"
Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the |
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys tte
appearance, but also affects the wear- '
lag quality of the goods. This trou- i
ble can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great- '
er strength than other makes.
Whistling in English Streets.
In England whistling is very com-
mon among all classes, and. Indeed, It
is rare in London to see a butcher or
a grocer boy on his daily errands
whose lips are not pursed up for the
purpose 6t emitting the whistling
notes of the comic song of the hour.
So prevalent is the habit that in
i hotels, and even In clubs, requests are
posted up to "refrain from whistling."
Where Others Failed
"Each spring for five or six yeirs
I broke out with a kind of Eczema
which nothing seemed to relieve per-
manently. Finally I tried a box of
Hunt's Cure, which promptly cured
me. Two years have passed but the
trouble has not returned."

Relied on Cuticura Remedies.
"Some years ago my three little
girls had a very bad form of eczema.
Itching eruptions formed on the backs
of their heads which were simply cov-
ered. I tried almost everything, but
failed. Then my mother recommended
the Cuticura Remedies. I washed my
children's heads with Cuticura Soap
and then applied the wonderful oint-
ment, Cuticura. I did this four or five
times and I can say that they have
been entirely cured. I have another
baby who is so plump that the folds of
skin on his neck were broken and even
bled. I used Cuticura Soap and Cuti-
cura Ointment and the next morning
the trouble had disart>eared. Mme.

A Few Funny Facts.
The Georgia legislature has had un-
der consideration a bill which would
make null and void a matrimonial
compact Into which a woman has
wheedled a man by means of paint,
powder, perfume, cosmetics, artificial
teeth, false hair, corsets, hoops, high-
heeled shoes, low-cut waists, lace or
rainbow hosiery, or by any other arti-
ficial means or practices. Why not
limit the woman's "wheedling" priv-
ilges to the method of absent treat-
ment? It is plain the poor men need
at least a ten-mile start.
Mentally Sound.

right, but you have convinced me that
it's in the wrong body."
