of New York, who has been traveling all
rived on the Mascotte from Havana He
ridicules the stories of any serious engaget
.m‘eht having taken place between govern—
ment troops and rebels. The latter have a
poor organization and are traveling about
in bands of from three to eight and gen-
erally disband, hide their arms and flee to
the nearest village on the appearance of
the soldiers. If the Spaniards in favor of
home rule decide to take sides with the
revolutionists, a sort of guerrilla warfare
may be maintained in the outlying dis-
tricts and mountain fastnesses indefinitely
unless the government takes decisive meas-
ures to stamp. it out. Howard met many
small bands of rebels and photographed
some. He said most of them are what in
this country would be termed marauders
or tramps.
All disturbances that have taken place
have been in the region between Matanzas
and Ceiba Mocha, but no conflict has taken
place in which more than 60 men have
been engaged. It is absurd to talk about
2,000 being defeated, as no such number
has yet been brought together. The revo-
lutionists profess to believe that re-en-
forcements, arm’s, ammunition, food and
apparel are to be forwarded them at once
from Key West and Tampa. Tourists and
others can move about the island at will.
France’s Row With San Domingo.
PARIS, March 7.—The Matin today.
commenting upon the trouble between
France and San Delinngu, says: “The
American government cannot interfere in
the settlement of the difficulty between
France and San Domingo, and it has not
attempted to do so. The United States
contented itself with the request that
France should respect the interests of the
American company which has a lien upon
the customs receipts of San Domingo.
France never had any intention of med-
dling in any way with the interests of this
company. which pays a monthly sum of
450,000 francs to President Heureaux.
France only asks that 5 or 10 per cent of
this amount be first deducted monthly un-
til the indemnity due to France is paid.”

ed while leaving Port Said and is now

Gibraltar, 5 Malaga, Granada. Algiers,
Alexandria, Cairo, Jerusalem (where the
excursionists were to spend seven days).

combine with their African progenitor

and groceries.
“And I don’t believe there are many
people outside of those who have it who
ever heard of the peanut habit. You
don’t like rawpeanuts, do you? I thought
not. No one does until he acquires the
habit, and then he wants his raw peanuts
just as regular as he wants his tobacco,
provided he chews or smokes—and if he
has the peanut habit the chances are he
is not a. tobacco chewer. The funny part
of the peanut habit is that it prevails
only among veterans of the late war who
served either in Virginia or Tennessee
or North Carolina. These are the States
where the bulk of the peanut crop is
grown. '
“Perhaps'you can remember how things
were before the war. If you can’t, Iwill
tell you that the peanut then was chiefly
a holiday luxury to the great mass of
maple in this country. The day when
the circus was in town, or when the
county fair was showing its pumpkins
and four-minute horse trots, or when the
great and glorious Fourth of July had
come around again, were about the only
occasions when the popular yearning for
the peanut was in any measure satisfied.
On these memorable occasions the nut
was shucked and masticated until it
couldn’t rest.
“It was only in the towns and large vil‘
lages that the favored few could have
peanuts with them always. Before the
war there wasn’t a. peanut roaster in the
whole country outside of the big towns
and cities, and the rural dealers bought
their stock already roasted and delivered
to them in big, coarse bags. To-day every
cross-roads from Maine to California has
its peanut stand and its wheezing steam
roaster, and the great American nut has
no better standing on circus day or Fourth
of July than it has on any ordinary day
of the year, except that there is greater
concentration of energy as to its shuck.

PROFIT SHARING BY EMPLOYEES.
Successful Operation of the System in
Some Big Chicago Dry Good Stores.
In each of the big down-town stores
where the profit-Sharing system is in
force, the employees will soon be made
happy by the distribution of the fund set
aside for that purpose from the profits of
the firm. Early in the year business was
exceedingly dull, but toward the holi-
days it brightened up so perceptibly that
the share for the employees will in many
cases be‘snug little sums.
The system under which this money is
distributed is something unique, and at-
the end of the first years’s work the com-
pany is greatly pleased with the results.
Mr. J. H. Wood says that it has greatly
improved the work of the salesmen, has
swelled the amount of the sales made,
and largely increased the wages paid.
All of the salespeople who had been in
the employ of the company one year or
more were then informed that if the
amount of their sales for six months ex-
ceeded the total for the same period of
time during the previous year they would
receive a commission—averaging 2 1-2 per
cent. throughout the store—on the ex-
cess. Immediately the young men and
women behind the counters began to in-
crease their eflforts to sell goods, and when
the first distribution was made last July
some surprising results were shown.
Shop girls drawing $10. a week in wages
received as high as $30 in premiums for
the six months. At the distribution
soon to be made, Mr. \Vood says that
there are saleswomen in the store who
will draw more than $100 as their share of
the profits.
The salary of the employee is raised in
ratio with the excess of the sales and ac-
cording to the wage percentage which
governs the department in which be
For instance, a girl receiving $10
twenty weeks. If, however, she was suc-
cessful in exceeding the amount of sales
necessary to make her salary at the per-
centage fixed in her department, by say
$1,000, she would r ccive a commission on
this amount of u out 2 1—2 per cent., or
$25. Besides this she would have her
salary raised for the next six months by
an amount equal to the commission per
week that she has earned on her sales.
In this example it would be one-twenti-
eth of $25. or 331,25 advance per week.—

“Madurai," he said, as she held the door
open a little way and asked him what he
wanted, “perhaps it so happened years
ago that you had a son wander away from
the family fireside?” .
“Yes, it did,” she replied, as she opened
the door a little further.
“He went out into the cold world and
became a wanderer o’er the face of the
earth 1’”
“Yes, he did.”
“Days and weeks and months ran into
years and you have heard no word of
him? You knew not whether he lived or
died .9”
, ."As you say, I knew nothing,” replied
the woman, as she stood in the door and
looked fixedly at the tramp.

finished, as he swallowed the lunlpin his
