THE COLUMBIAN. BLOOM BURG, PA. II S Sill US AU'rks a Step in Civilizing the Island NATIVE LABOR HMl'LOYLD Required Two and a Half Years to Build Wacjrs of Laborers Rar.ged from EO to 70 Cents a Day Diffi culty Experienced in Finding Suit able Wood for Tics. Ouo of the worst enrmlrs with which It was nccPHMiry to contend ;f the white nnt, whore laviiics In the p:it have been roHpuusiblo for the destruc tion of wooden Htrueluirs without number. Much difficulty was experi enced In finding wood for ties ami polcH, mid for tine In building the enm, which was HUfliclently tough to with stand the nnt pent, and also to b weather-proof, wlillp the nature of the soil, cupeclnlly during the rainy Rea son, necessitated painting the rails for the entire distance of 45 miles with a preparation nuido from asphalt and coal tar, and known as asphaltum. In many places where the ground Is low the rails are laid in concrete. Approximately two and one-holf years have hern required to build and equip the road, the franchise for Its const ruction having been granted early In 1!02 to an American syndicate and the work of construction begun in tho fall of that year. A noteworthy fact in connection with the undertaking Is that It was carried out, so far as purely manual labor Is concerned, by Filipinos, r'lli plnon, under the direction of foremen bent to Macllu from various parts of the I'nited States, ilcued the way, laid Bud fastened the rails, set the Miles for the ovol head trolley, put the cables and trolley in place, and are tuday cm ployed as motorm'eu and conductors to run the cars. Largo numbers of Fili pinos were also employed In erecting the power house and car burns, and tho men under whom they served iiavo uothiug but praise for the ability and sincerity shown by the natives. They gave their bosses scarcely any trouble alter they came to Lnuw what was ex pected ot them. Tho wages of the Filipino laborers ranged from 50 to 71) cents a day, ac curuiag to age and aptitude, and with this pay, which is about twice the amount they receive under Spanish rule, they seemed 'well satisfied and were able to provide for all their or dinary wants. Uetween l,5oO and 2, DUO Filipinos were employed on the work lor the greater part ot the construc tion period, a majority making their homes in and about Manila. Foi the greater part of its length tho road is single track, there being stretches of double track here and there, aggregating approximately ten miles. From end to end the road is equipped with block signals and a modern railroad telephone service. As regards the variety and cost of the wood used in its construction and rolling stock, the Manila railway has no equal. The investigations made by the United States Bureau of Forestry proved of considerable service to the builders in Ueir search for durable wood, despite the fact that native spec imens which the bureau reported wore immune from attack by the white ant were found to have been totally de stroyed by the peat in certain local ities. Some of the ties are of molave, which grows in the Islands; others were brought from Australia, and sev eral thousunds are of California red woodit being largely a matter of con jecture which sort would last the long est. Further experimenting was done along this line by treating the ties with preservatives, such as creosote oil, jodelite, solignum and carbolln eura. Suitable poles for supporting the trolley were also hard to find. The nearby forests contalnlned an abun dance of trees, but It was found that only a small percentage of them would answer the requirements as to height and other dimensions, and when shaped for setting, they cost four or five times as much as wooden trolley poles used in the United States. All of them were set in concrete and re ceived several coats of paint designed to afford protection against the cli mate and insects. The most perplexing problem of all was where to get suitable cars with which to equip the line when complet ed. It was plain that no dwelling house, bridge, wharf or other structure made of soft native wood could with stand the assault of the ant pest. Teak was practically the only wood which promised to be ant proof, and it was decided to take no chances and to have the cars built wholly of steel and teak. Such cars cost about one-quarter more than those of, similar size in the United States. Th estimated value of the new rail road complete Is between $4,000,000 and $5,000,00, and it is said to be up-to-date in every respect. Mission of Music. Music boxes and blue light are two of the latest things in the line of an aesthetics. The music boxes do not reduce pain or render the patients In sensible, but, acording to l'rof. Kedard of Geneva, they do take away certain ill effects that often accompany the ubs of anaesthetics. It Is a well-known fact that external impressions received during the period of somnolence have gTeat bearing on the dreams. From this Prof. Kedard conceived the idea of utilizing music. It was found that the music had a tendency to take away the disagreeable excitation previous to the use of the chloroform or other an aesthetic. The awakening 'was alsc found to be fe from excitement, Chicago Post OFFICERS IN BATTLE, Number Killed In Civil War Much Greater Than In Eastern Conflict. Deducting eleven names of officers who did not qualify for one reason or another, wo. have in this list 415 goner nls, and the records j;lven show that of these 74 were killed or mortally wounded in action, or IS per cent. This Is a very sti Iking showing when wo recall the almost entire Immunity of the Russian and Japanese armies fight Inn In Manchuria from fatal casu alties in Keiicial officers. We rccntl but one who has been reported killed In battle In the far east, and if there are others they must hn very few; whure as the peicentngo of casualties among 1ho general fifth era of the Confederacy aiu far In excess of the percentage, of casualties among the rank and file of the Kusslan and Japanese armies as given by Gen. lHIss, who has the best of facilities for learning the facts. No less than 23 general officers of the Confederacy were killed In battle dur ing the 11 month of fighting com mencing with Grant's battle of the Wilderiiof-s and ending with Appomat ox. Ten brigadier generals of the Union army were also killed during this campaign, besides 12 colonels com manding brigades, six of them at Cold Harbor alone. At Franl'.lln seven Confederate gen erals were, killed, and during Sher man's campaign five, the Union army losing three. At Gettysburg five Con fedorafe and five Union generals were killed, ten in all, besides three Union colonels commanding brigades. At Fredericksburg two Union and two Confederate generals were killed. In all, the Union army lost In killod or mortally wounded 50 general officers, 23 brevet brigadier generals and 34 j colonels commanding brigades. Taking the proportion as fine killed I to l..r,2 wounded, this would Indicate that. -M7 Confederate generals were j killed or wounded out of a total of 415. Pacific Coast's Growth. When the Lewis and Clark exposi tion at Portland, Ore., was projected, the intention was to signalize by an exhibition the giuwth of Oregon la wealth and resoun t-s since tho two ex I'loters sent on the recommendation of Thomas Jefferson reached the coast. '1 he changed conditions which have followed the Spanlsh-Amerlcttn war and have marked tho Husso-Japanose war have practically transformed the 1'tM Ilk: coast states, making In period of ten years a change almost as sweep ing as occurred in the same region af ter the discovery of gold half a century ago. Ten year ago the population of San Francisco was 350,000; it is now 450, 000. Ten years ago tjie population of Portland where the exhibition is being held, was XO.OOO; it Is now 140,000. Ten years ago the population of Se attle was 35.ot)0; It is now 150,000. Ten years ago tho population of Los An geles wus S0,000; It Is now 125,000. Ten years ago the population of Spokane was 15,000; it Is now 40,000. These changes in ton years mark the growth of some of the largest cities of the Pacific roust, but In smaller towns along the coast the gain has been pro portionately Just as large; in some cases larger, following the develop ment of an enlarged American market In the Orient. The Lewis and Clark exposition Is the first to be held west of the Rocky Mountains, and the Oregon country, the discovery of which the exposition is intended to commemorate, includes the present states of Oregon, Washing ton and Idaho. The growth of the Pa cific coast cities in population exceeds the growth of the cities of any other section of the country during the same period, and the exposition Is expected to boom them still further. Teachers' Salaries Are Meagre. Teachers are poorly paid. This If the conclusion reached by the commit tee on salaries of the National Educa tional Association, appointed two year ago, at the Boston meeting. This com mittee has collected statistics through out the United States, and It has been found that the average salary paid to teachers in elementary schools is less than that paid to street cleaners. It must be remembered that the average salary of teachers is low largely be cause of the fact thafthe personnel of the teaching force is constantly chang ingnew teachers with lower salaries replacing teachers who have been lo the service a number of years. In comparing the salaries of teachers and street cleaners, it Is noted that the former are on duty but six hours dally for 38 weeks and the latter 10 hourj dally for 50 weekB. But the touchers generally work more than sis lours a day, and must live throughout the year on the salary earned daring 89 woohs of school. The average salary of teachers lo 467 leading cities in elementary sohoola is $1,101 for men and $660 for women, and In high schools $903 for woraep and $1,303 for men. in New York or the minimum salary of teachers Is $61 and that of street cleaners $631. Bos ton pays teachers $563, and Its street cleaners $003, while Philadelphia pays Its teachers $470, or $67 less than the street cleaners. Teachers In San Fran cisco receive $G00 a year, but the street cleaners are paid $750. He Knows the Map by Heart. Sir Clements R. Markbam, who has . just retired from the presidency of the j British Royal Geographical Society, began life as a midshipman in the old ' days of sailing ships, and his lov of ' travel date from that period.

When tho official history of tho RuMHo-JapHti"s war omcs to bo compiled It will probably bo found tlint tho iiiorit Interesting chapters will be thoso relating to tho uho nnd effect of t'o new artillery and tho high explosives employed. The effects of field flro In past wars hnvo been much less destruc tlvo to llfo In but tin than Is popu larly supposed. The killed and wounded In tho Franco-German war, for Instance, from artillery fire formed only somo 1C per cent, of the total casualties. This was owing In great part to mechanical deficiencies In the weap ons compared with modern guns, to tho uncertainty of the fuses used In tho shells and to tho want of accu rate rangeflnders. The black pow der also then In use had limitations both as a propelling force and hs an explosive In shells, though It was less liable under ordinary conditions to the rapid decomposition to which modern compounds are subject. Hut it would appear from the ex perlenco gained during tho present war that the shlmoso explosive, so called after the celebrated Japanese chemist who invented it, possesses tho highest qualities of any known as regards stability, force and sub mission to control. Kvldonco of these qualities Is to be found in the results wherever It has been used, from tho first action at Chemulpo, when the Variag was battered almost out of shape as regarded her upper works, through the siege of Port Arthur, down to tho last and most disastrous defeat of the Russians in the Sea of Japan. . Not only was the Japanese fire re markable for its accurucy but It was still more so for its terrible effect, which, moreover, was not entirely mechanical. Tho stifling and poison ous character of tho gases evolved on the bursting of shlmose charged shells on board tho Russian ships simply paralyzed the crews, choking them and rendering them Incapable of action. Those in the Immediate vicinity of tho explosion who were not killod by pieces of shell were de stroyed by tho force of tho detona tion, while those further away suf fered from concussion of the brain. Tho great column of water thrown up by the bursting of a shell that missed Its mark and dropped into the bay was a colossal, if only mo mentary, monument to the terrific uplifting force of the Japanese com pound, while the gash made in the side of the unfortunate Dayan tes tified to the driving force of the ex plosive that sent the projectile from the gun. They are simply reduced to a shapeless heap, untenable by the de fenders, who must either surrender or abandon their positions, as the Russians were obliged to at Port Arthur. The bombardments of the works defending Sebastopol were child's play compared with the fire from the Japanese batteries after Gen. Nogl had got down to his work at Port Arthur, but the forces were more equal, hence the duration of the sloge, eleven months. At Port Arthur the Russians were deficient In most of the scientific ap pliances for their guns with which the Japanese were amply supplied, and lacked the explosive that made the Japanese shells a terror to the garrison and fleet. The consequence was that, with all chance of relief cut off, the surrender was only a matter of time and expediency. As regards guns, It is a question whether we have not about reached the limit of power, chiefly because there is no known metal or process of hardening those employed In mak ing cannon that can resist the wear and tear of use, which also becomes greater with the Increased callbor of the piece and weight of the projec tile Between the modern gun and that of this year in the lost century there is as great difference as be tween tho explosives used In them. The best of the old guns that were cast with a smooth core to form the bore were never moro than approxi mately accurate in their fire, for the reason that the axis of the bore had almost invariably anything from one or two to as much as five degrees variation In some guns from the axis of sighting and the line of elevation. In those days the best gunner was the one who had become familiar with the vagaries of his weapon at all ranges, and knew where to plant ms snot in spite or them. In the modern piece mechanical perfoction and the use of mathemati cal and optical appliances for range finding and sighting have diminished the value of the human factor in some ways, while they demand a more cultivated intelligence In the manipulation of the gun. Strategy and tactics even are be ing modified In application by the rapid changes that are taking place in the scientific and mechanical ap pliances used In battle. It only needs that some new dis covery In chemistry, or some means of utilizing electricity in the destruc tion of ships and large bodies of men be placed at the disposal of some government and war would be revo lutionised, , Warning To Stock Feeders A jainst Bran Containing Rice Hulls Tlic Pennsylvania Agricultural ICxjieritniMit Station recently exam ined a simple of bran submitted by a Westmoreland county farmer with a statement Miat cattle refuse it and when llay do eat it are purged, and that lings eating it sicken and die, one farmer in that county having Inst six hgs in this way. Urcm examination the bran was found to contain rice hulls. The hulls, produced abundantly as a waste from the tice-millit.g in.histry, differ materially from the hulls of barley, wheat, rye and oats because of the tact that they contain sharp particles of silica. These are extremely irritating to the mucous lining of the digestive tract of the animals eating the hulls. The in itation produced is so intense that many animals are sickened and often killed because of this action of the rice hulls Hogs and heifers have been especially injured whe-e attempts have been made in the Sutithfrn States to feed thw product and the experience in that locality lias shown these hulls to be an ab solutely dangerous ingredient of stock food. Rice hulls have been found in Western samples of wheat bran sold in New England and in the Middle West, but this is the first case in Pennsylvania. Owing to the ex tremely daugerom character of this adulterant, buyers should be especially on their guard against it. j As Others See Us j The Milton Record comments on I the political situation in this county as follows: i Columbia county is going to have an interesting fight for county commissioner this fall. The Detn jocralshave two regularly notnin- ated candidates that is to say two i candidates that succeeded in getting i a majority of the delegates in the convention. The Republican's have named one candidate. There is one independent Republican candidate announced, and nomina tion papers have already been taken out by one of the defeated Dem ocratic candidates. It is stated that two more will enter the race this week. This will make seven candidates. Ordinarily, the regular nominees would he elected without much of a contest, but in the present shaken up condition of politics in our neighbor county there is no telling what the outcome may be. For years the Democratic leaders, or pretended leaders of the Columbia Democracy have been sowing the seed of dissension, by resorting to methods that ought to have landed some ot them be h hid the bars. The rank and file of the party voters want a change-a square deal, and it looks very much to an outsider as though they had started iu to get it, The September Woman'' s Home Companion is an uuusually strong number. There is the opening instalment of its new detective serial, "The Silver Pin," and the first of Prof. James H. Hyslop's startling series of the articles on the uknowu, this dealing with "Ghost Stories from Real Life." All of regular departments are up to their usual standard, and a new one de voted to knitting is begun. The fashion pages are particularly strong and there is a striking article on "Photographing the Stars," with unpublished pictures of many stage favorites. There is a double page of prize dog pictures: and an article cn "Holland's Young Queen" and "When the Actress Goes Shopping" are distinctly readable. Sam Loyd's puzzle page and the pages devoted to boys and girls are all that can be desired. There are five interesting short i stories, one of them a fairy tale by I Dr. Max Nordau written for the amusement of his little grandchild- J ren. rublisiied by The Crovvell Publishing Company, Springfield, Ohio; one dollar a year; tea cents a copy. Destroying Trees Tree owners are much alarmed at present by the presence of billions of young San Jose Scale. These in sects are pure white in color, and they are so thick in numbers that some of the trees look as though they had been whitewashed. The maples seem to be most affected, and a good many of the trees seem to be dying. The scale has been present in the farming section for the past few years, and the epidemic is looked upon as a natural conse quence. What the result will be cannot be foretold, but there is grave danger that many trees will be destroyed. nuther (lray'a Appeal to Women.
