The natives inhabiting the country near the source of the Niger believe that a devil lives in the rock whence the river springs. They are very super« Btitlous and greatly fear this devil, who is supposed to kill any person who dares to look at the source. Whenever the natives are showing a •tranger the spot, they cover up their faces and walk backward in the direc tion of the spring, pointing toward it with outstretched hand behind the back.

MAY GIVE AMNESTY Fear of Execution Is Believed to Keep Rebels in Field. New Minister of Interior Advises Policy of Moderation Fight ing Is On Decrease. Mexico City Convinced that numer ous bands of rebels in the states of Durango, Couhuila and Southern Chi huahua are continuing their operations merely because they believe surrender would mean summary execution under the suspension of guarantees, Rafael Hernandez, the new minister of the interior, has announced that he would attempt to gain for them a promise of amnesty. Chehe Campos and Benjamin Argu- ado, officers in Orozco’s organization, are the chief rebel leaders in these districts, and several engagements were fought last week, the govern ment as usual announcing victories. These, and allied leaders, have been making successful raids on small out posts, managing for the most part to evade encounters with superior forces. The rich country virtually is at their mercy and the Federal forces are able to accomplish little more than garri son the larger towns. Minister Hernandez is confident the rurales, who, report to his department, will be able to operate more effective ly than the regular troops and with this object in view, he has conferred with General de la Vega, commander- in-chief of the rurale guard. Hernan dez has issued a general order to the rurales to commandeer horses when needed, giving receipt to the owners and notifying the government. The rurales have complained fre quently they are unable to follow the insurrectos because of worn-out mounts. It is believed this will pre vent the rebels [from obtaining horses and will assure the owners of pay ment. FOR COAL American Fleet May Be Augmented in Cate of European War. Washington, D. C.—Realizing the possibility of rapid and important de velopments in the Balkan war, the Navy department haa slightly chang ed the itinerary for the cruisers Ten nessee and Montana, now on the way to the Orient under command of Rear Admiral Knght. Instead of going di rect from Gibraltar to Smyrna, Ad miral Knight has headed first for Malta, with the Tennessee, while the Montana, which was destined for Bei rut, has started for Port Said, at the entance of the Suez canal. The change in the itinerary will make it easier for the cruisers to re plenish their coal bunkers, pending the arrival in the Mediterranean of the collier Brutus. It was said at the State department that there is no present intention of sending other warships to reinforce the Tennessee and Montana in the Mediterranean. European navies are extending all necessary protection in the larger ports of Turkey. Of course, in the event of a general European war, it might be necessary to diBpatch the greater part of the At lantic fleet to Europe. PENSION NEEDY EMPLOYES. T. R. Thinks Faithful Workers as Deserving as Ex-Pre*iden»j. New York—Discussing the plans of Andrew Carnegie to give an annual pension of $25,000 to future retiring presidents, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt said. “ As it does not apply to me, I have nothing to say on that side of it. In any event, my interest is not in pen sions for former presidents, but for the small man who has no chance to save and who faces direct poverty when he becomes superannuated. “ I think the small government em ploye who gives years of faithful ser vice at a small emolument should be pensioned upon retirement. I believe we must work out some system of in surance and pensions, relieving the AIR ROUTE TO POLE IS SAFEST ordinary workingman from the haunt ing dread of extreme poverty in old age.” Some of the hotelkeepers “on the sther side” have peculiar ways of ad rertising their houses, and one of the most singular of these methods is the statement in their advertisements that the hotel is equipped with hearse! Inasmuch as the American hotelkeeper Is only looking for “live ones,“ it Is not of record that hearses have been used as attractions in this country as yet. Ono of the English catering Journals in speaking of this custom, recently said: “We have on several occasions commented upon the uncanny mixing up of the funeral traffic business with hotel keeping— An unholy combination to be met with In some northern parts of Ireland.

Suffragists Fear Returns Indicate Cause Will Lose, Lansing, Mich. — Leaders in the fight for the passage of the suffrage amendment to the constitution of Michigan admit for the first time that the complete official returns may show the defeat of the measure by a few hundred votes. But three counties, Keeweenaw, Montcalm and St. Clair, remain to be heard from officially. The official vote from the* remainder of the state gave a majority of 165 for the amendment. Unofficial re turns from the three missing counties rolled up a majority of about 700 against i t There is a possibility that the offi cial returns may be changed in some instances before the contest is finally determined. RAILWAY EARNINGS GROW, November Shows Increase Over One Year Ago of 6.5 Per Cent. Chicago—A further increase in rail road activity is indicated by the re turns of all United State roads report ing gross earnings for the first two weeks of November, the total amount ing to $15,822,490, an increase as compared with the earnings of the same roads for the corresponding period a year ago of 6.5 per cent. These roads reported a gain of 4.4 per cent the first week of the month, and 4.1 and 4.9, respectively, for the first two weeks of October and Sep tember. The improvement is now quite uniformly distributed, the loss reported being very exceptional and extremely small. Sweet Potato Cannery Opened. Americua, Gs.—The large potato canning plant of the Ware-Progress Orchard company, near Americus, has started operations for the season and with favorable conditions will pre serve probably 60,000 bushels of sweet potatoes here during the next three months. This plant is equipped with machinery of the latest type and on full time employs 90 operators. Some trouble is experienced in getting sufficient labor, but with this supplied the cannery will be operated on full time during the winter season. SII69.40 to Keep Family a Year. Chicago—What constitutes a “ liv ing wage” for a family of five—hus band, wife and three children—in Chicago? Economists, settlement workers and others have tried to an swer the question in recent years and have made various estimates, ranging from $700 to $1100 a year. Before the street car wage arbitration board an itemized budget has been intro duced in evidence, showing the least a family of five should have in this city to maintain the American standards of living is $1154.40 a year.

J.—That success is assured for the farm run by the un dergraduates of Princeton university is shown by the recent report of the manager. E. C. Page, of the class of 1912. While the project did not make money, indications point to prosperous seasons in the future. The reasons given for the lack of financial profit were that the plan was carried out more in the nature of a trial, and that extensive farming waa not done. Carnegie Completes Will and Says Mind Is Relieved. Corporation Gets All But 826,000,- OOO of Vast Estate—Approves Discussion of Pension Plan. New York—Andrew Carnegie, in a statement Wednesday afternoon, an nounced that all but $25,000,000 of his fortune, which will be disposed of under his will, will be left to the .Car negie Corporation of New York, which has been made his residuary legatee, and which will carry on his educational and charitable work. Mr. Carnegie’s statement likewise explains his reasons for planning to pension ex-presidents of the United States, as he provided recently through the Carnegie Corporation. In making his announcement, tell ing how he had gone about putting his “ gospel of wealth” into practice, Mr. Carnegie said: “ I resolved to fulfill the require ments of [the ‘gospel of wealth’ by transferring funds, and have done so, except that I have found it desirable to retain for a while personal distri bution of my United States military telegraph corps pensions and Pennsyl vania Railroad pensions to Pittsburg division men and their widows, be cause my old boys would dislike the change, and so, no doubt, would others upon my pension list. "To meet these payments and oth ers under my will, $25,000,000 of bonds upon which the New York state tax has been paid have been reserved. But the New .York corporation has been made my residuary legatee and all surplus left after meeting the pro visions of my will goes to it. “ 1 am happy in getting all this off my mind. It is a grewsome business, but I find that this earth is rapidly becoming more heavenly, b o that many good men and women I know labor for others. Surely Luther, Franklin and their followers were right, who held that ‘service to man is the highest worship of God.’ ” In explaining his pension plan Mr. Carnegie cited the case of three ex presidents as affording justification for the project, the announcement of which, he said, was “ making the de sired impression.” His trustees and himself were all hoping, he Baid, “ that congress would meet the situa tion by proper action.” “ Not one of us but will rejoice should this be the result,” he said.

V CONTRACTORS THREATENED Plants Dynamited After Refusal to Employ Union Men, Indianapolis, Ind. — As tending to show the implication of labor union officials in plots, the government in troduced at the “ dynamite conspiracy” trial testimony that explosions on non union iron works followed the refusal of contractors to unionize their jobs after personal visits by some of the defendants. Before two charges of dynamite ex ploded on a bridge in St. Louis on August 9, 1908, testified John T. Garrett, president of a construction firm, he was visited by John H. Barry, of the local Ironworkers’ union. “ Barry wanted me to unionize the job,” Garret said. ‘ ‘You’ll find it a great deal cheap er, for you know what will happen,’ he said. I told him I suspected he was going to dynamite the job and he had better be careful. It was blown up later.” Elliott Orders 4100 Cars. Tacoma, Wash.—The Northern Pa cific Railway company has ordered the building of 500 flat cars at the South Tacoma shops and has also placed or ders for 2500 new box cars and 1100 refrigerator cars. The shippers of the Northwest responded splendidly to the plea for co-operation issued early in the fall and the Northern Pacific has had less trouble this year in handling the crop than ever before. Fully 45 per cent of the wheat crop of the Northwest has already been moved. Trainmen Tie Up Mills, Pittsburg — Work at the Edgar Thompson and Homestead plants and Carrie furnaces of the Carnegie Steel company ia at a standstill and 10,000 mill workmen are idle, due to the strike of 625 trainmen. Only a few of the smaller mills are in operation. The strikers refused the offer made by the Carnegie company, although the company is said to have agreed to all demands except the reinstatement of four discharged employes. The force of police at the Homestead plant has been increased. Big Sals of Hops Made. Oroville, Cal.—By a deal completed here S. H. P.
