SOME FACTS OF BOHEMIA
Is a Great Industrial Country and Not
aG Pictured in Romance —Increas-
ing Demand for Wood a Se

PRAGUE, AUSTRIA.
The Bohemia of real life as an en
tirely different sort of a place from
the Bohemia of romance. There has
been a disposition on the part of a
great many people to regard the coun
try as a romance land simply, to refer
to it as such, thus neglecting the
splendid trading opportunities offered
by it lo enterprising merchants and to
manufacturers of many kinds of mod
ern, time and labor saving machinery.
• Bohemia is situated in the very
heart of Europe, on the highway of
■commerce between its nothern and
soul hern ports and eastern and west
ern markets, a day's distance from
the former ports and only a few hours
from the principal cities of central
lEurope.
Bohemia is a land of extraordinary
industrial activity, great agricultural
wealth, considerable financial re
sources, and vast commercial possi
bilities; and the land contains one of
'the most industrious and highly edu
cated people of the Old Continent,
where all branches of education are
far advanced.
Bohemia has a population of 6,318,-
697, or about 25 per cent, of the total
population of Austria—26,lso,7oß. This
population is about 65 per cent. Czech
and 35 per cent. German.
There is considerable rivalry be
tween the two races, and this should
be taken into consideration in deal
ing with them. The commercial men
speak both languages, but generally
prefer to be addressed in their own
tongue, and, frequently, to deal with
-their own nationality. Of the foreign
languages spoken, French seems the
most popular with the Czechs and
English with the Germans, but the
younger generation is learning both
languages, thus speaking for lan
guages—German, Czech, English and
French.
Bohemia covers an area of 20,061
•square miles, or about 18 per cent, of
the total area of Austria. The climate
is about the same as that of New
York. Of the 17 divisions of the Aus
trian empire the Kingdom of Bohemia
ranks second in area but first in in
dustry and commerce. It is also
claimed that its land is very fertile
and its people industrious. Of the
population about 40 per cent, are en
gaged in farming and forestry, about
38 per cent are employed in manu
facturing and mining, eight per cent,
in commerce, railroading, etc., and
nine per cent, as laborers. Only about |
four per cent, of the land is not un- j
der cultivation. About one-third of
the industrial or commercial firms in
Austria are established in Bohemia,
representing about 37 per cent, of the
total Austrian industrial and mining
interests and about 26 per cent, of |
its whole commerce. It may be added
that Bohemia's contribution to the
imperial revenue averages about 25
per cent, of the total amount of state
taxes received. On taxes levied on
real property (land, houses, etc.) the
proportion is 22 per cent, and m per
sonal income taxes, 23 per cent. In
indirect taxes levied on beer, alcehol,
sugar, wine, tobacco and mineral oil
the proportion was about 27 per cent.,
giving a fair idea of the industry,
wealth and consuming power of the
population of the kingdom.

HAT MAKING IN ITALY.
NAPLES, ITALY.
Hat making in Italy is increasing
steadily.
The exportation of straw hats is an
important item in Italy's foreign trade
balance. Of late years the manufac
ture of wool and felt hats not only
covered the home consumption, but
■contributed to Italian exports. The
finest hair hats are made in Alessan
dria and in Intra, on Lake Maggiore.
Midium quality felt hats are made in
Biella, Chiavazza, Andorno, Sagliano,
Micca and Tarigliano.
The town of Monza is the chief cen
ter for the manufacture of woolen
hats. Here 14 factories were formed
into a syndicate or trust which em
ploys about 7,000 operatives. Of the
Monza production, about $1,300,000
worth is annually exported, the chief
customers being Roumania, Austria-
Hungary and Switzerland. The daily
production of Monza averages 150,000
hats. Factories manufacturing fine
hats, composed of hair, for export
trade, are in various cities. The
straw hat manufactories of Tuscany,
,employing about 85,000 operatives, ex
port to foreign countries over $5,000,-
000 in value. Most of these hats
jgo to the United States. The town
iand vicinity of Carpi, in the province
Ot Emilia, also manufacture straw
liats, of which about $1,300,000 worth
are shipped abroad. Our fine Ameri
can-made soft hats should and would
find as ready a sale as the Italian
hats do in the markets of Europe if
properly introduced.

WORLDS WOOD SUPPLY.
EIBENSTOCK, BELGIUM.
The demand for wood instead of
diminishing, as was expected, when
coal came in as a substitute, has gone
on Increasing until the question of a
continued supply to meet the present,
rapidly increasing rate of consumption
is a very serious problem.
The coal mines of Belgium called
for 1,742,740 square yards of wood for
the various purposes to which wood
is putin mines in 1903. Each year a
renewal of old supports is taking
place, and new ones are being put into
new galleries. Railroads eat up enor
mous quantities of wood in cross ties.
Add to these wood for excelsior, or
wood-wool newspapers, bags, etc., and
one will have tons running into the
millions each year.
North America, Siberia. Africa, In
dia, China, Korea and South America
still contain great unutilized and al
most unknown forests. Nevertheless,
it would bo well not to exaggerate the
dimensions of these wood supplies.
Many African forests are really com
posed of nothing better than thin
bushes, and Siberia is already being
systematically subjected to deforest
ing, which will also begin in Korea
in the near future.
North America, however, once the
possible wood storehouse for the
world, has not enough wood to sup
ply its own demand notwithstanding
its 506,555,000 acres of wooded area.
Even now it is dependent upon Can
ada, which, with its 798,133,000 acres
of forests, represents probably the
largest single area of any country in
the world. Canada sends its entire
surplus to the United States. Al
though large territories of forests, es
pecially in China, Korea, India and
South America remain to be utilized,
it is certain that the question of the
future wood supply of the world, now
attracting the attention of economists,
will continue to excite great interest.
The continuation of the present wood
consumption, without comprehensive
reforesting, will, within a century at
the latest, result in a great and very
important scarcity of the wood supply

SUGAR CANE IN MEDEIRA.
FUNCHAT,.
Sugar cane was first introduced in
Madeira by Zargo about 1425, and sub
sequently was transplanted to the
West Indies, where its extensive culti
vation has produced so much wealth.
Cane growing retrograded in Madeira
owing to carelessness and the destruc
tion by a grub. Vineyards and wine
making became the industry, which
in turn was almost ruined for a time
by a fungus. Sugar-cane planting was
resumed, and to-day is a steady indus
try in the lower irrigable parts of the
island. The tenant system in vogue,
however, reduces the acreage produc
tion about one-half.
On a given space of 2.5 acres, on
which I have obtained reliable statis
tics, with the cultivation of the crop
by the landlord himself, the cost, of
culture, manure, water, etc., amounts
to $432. For the sale of young plants
nnd the yield of crop—4o,soo kilos
(kilos equal 2.2 pounds) at 50 cents
per 30 kilos —the returns are $790,
leaving a profit of $358. The tenant
system bring 3 the production down
to about 2,000 kilos on 2.5 acres.
The method of refining sugar by
Hinton & Sons, of Funchal, Is the suc
cessful Saudet chemical process for
the extraction of beet juice applied to
cane, practically minimizing the per
centage of loss under the old system
of double crushing to an irreducible
four per cent. Under this process,
after the juice has been extracted by
crushing, it is concentrated by evap
oration and purified by chemical treat
ment, following which it is cry»
tallized by a centrifugal machine com
posed of dual cylinders, one of fine
net and an inner solid one. These
'jeing subject to a proper revolution
ary velocity, the liquid elements are
thrown off, leaving a deposit of sugar
crystal, the residue o£ juice being aft
erwards distilled Into spirit, while the
pulp resulting from the initial process
of crushing is converted into operative
fuel. The consumption of the mill,
which employs over 300 laborers, la
about 500,000 pounds daily, represent
ing an approximate value of $4,000.

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, CCTOEER IS, 1906
TRUST TRIAL
Brings Out Evidence from
Mr. Cuthbert
AN IMMUNITY BATH
is Taken by the President of the
Manhattan Oil Co., an Auxili
ary of the Standard.
Findlay, O.—Evidence was brought
out Thursday by the state in
the trial of the Standard Oil Company
of Ohio for conspiracy against trade,
showing the ownership of the Manhat
tan Oil Company of Ohio to be in the
General Industrial Development Co.,
of London, England. Also that the
Manhattan, which buys and pipes
crude oil, does not compete with the
Standard, but does compete with in
dependent companies.
These facts were brought out in the
testimony of F. T. Cuthbert, president
of the Manhattan. A similar criminal
suit to that on trial is pending against
his company and he testified under
the order of the court, which renders
him immune from future criminal
prosecution.
Explaining the nature of business
done by the Manhattan, Mr. Cuthbert
said that before he became its presi
dent the company did a general oil
business; that it owned producing
properties, pipe lines and a refinery at
Galatea, O. It had disposed of all but
its pipe lines to the Ohio Oil Co., but
he did not know who was now oper
ating the refinery at Galatea. The
Manhattan Co. now does exclusively
a pipe line business. In doing so it
buys the oil of the producer, trans
ports it to storage stations and sells it
to S. P. Trainor, purchasing agent for
the Standard, who also buys oil from
Joseph Seep, treasurer of the Buckeye
Pipe Line Co.
In what is known as the South Lima
field, where the Manhattan and Buck
eye pipe lines both buy oil, the price
paid to the producer is five cents a
barrel less than in the North Lima
field, where what are regarded as the
Independent companies make their
purchases.
Asked to explain why this was, Mr.
"to protect our pipe
lines from the encroachment of com
petitors."
A WORLD-WIDE QUEST.
It Is Being Made for a Havana Banker
Who Stole $1,000,000.
New York. Cablegrams to all
ports in the world were sent out
Thursday asking the authorities to
keep watch for Manuel Silveira, the
Havana banker, who is accused of
having absconded with more than si,-
000,000, thereby causing the assign
ment in this city of the banking com
mission house of Juan M. Ceballos &
Co., which failed on Wednesday with
liabilities of between $3,000,000 and
$4,000,000.
It was announced here Thursday
that Silveira is not on board the
steamer Carmelina, on which he and
his family sailed from Havana. It
was said that the present whereabouts
of the Carmeliua are known and the
destination of the other steamer to
which it is said Silveira and his fam
ily were transferred two days out
from Havana has been ascertained.
William V. Rowe, receiver of the
wrecked firm, said that every effort
was being made to apprehend Silveira,
who, he said, was a close personal
friend of President Castro, of Venezu
ela, and had important financial rela
tions with the head of the South
American republic. Detectives have
been employed to run down Silveira
and their opinion is that the Cuban
banker will strain every nerve to
reach Venezuela.
CUBS ARE WHITEWASHED.
National Leaguers Lost the Third of
the World's Championship Games.
Chicago, 111. —Thursday's game be
tween the Chicago teams of the Na
tional and American leagues was a
battle royal between Pitchers Walsh
and Pfeister, and the American league
team won, 3 to 0.
Twenty-one batsmen struck out, for
12 of these the cx-edit goes to Walsh.
In addition he gave only one pass, and
allowed but two hits, in the first in
ning. Thereafter the Nationals, until
the ninth Inning, never had any sort
of a chance to score.
According to the official count, 13,-
750 enthusiasts, encouraged by
slightly warmer weather, were pres
ent when the game began. Pfeister,
the left handed pitcher, went into the
box for the Nationals. Hi?"control at
first was good, but by no means per
fect. He quickly steadied, however,
and pitched superbly until the sixth
inning. It was here he went to pieces
and the game was lost..
After the first innipg Walsh held
the Nationals completely at his mercy.
A Disastrous Collision.
Montgomery, Ala. —A passenger
train on the Louisville & Nash
ville railroad from New Orleans and
a freight going south collided Thurs
day near Flomaton, several persons
seing injured, some seriously. Both
engines were demolished.

CAMPAIGN IN iii:WYORK
Candidates Hughes and Hearst Ars
Doing Some Tall Hustling to
Secure Votes.
Klniira, N. Y. —William It. Hearst
on Friday formally accepted
the democratic nomination for gov
ernor of New York state in a letter
addressed to W. J. Conners, chairman
of the democratic state committee.
Before a large audience Mr. Hearst
spoke last evening in the Lyceum the
atre and then left for Ithaca, where
he was scheduled to speak.
The theatre where last night's
meeting was held had been engaged
and billed for a musical comedy, hut
Mr. Hearst bought out the comedy
company's claim, paying, it is said, a
bonus of S2OO. The theatre was
packed to suffocation half an hour be
fore the time for the meeting to be
gin and a large and vociferous crowd
filled the two streets in front and on
the sides of the theatre.
A feature of the speech was what
most of his hearers took to be a re
pudiation of the support of ex-Mayor
Van Wyck, of New York City. When
he said: "I do not want the support
of any ice trust mayor," hearty ap
plause greeted this sally, as did also
his declaration "that if any lackey of
the trusts has not yet departed from
our purified party let him speak up
and I will help him togo speedily if
not gracefully."
Seneca Falls, N. Y.—ln speeches
delivered on Friday in Yates
and Seneca counties, Charles E.
Hughes, the republican candidate for
governor, took up and answered the
assertion made by W. It. Hearst at
Corning Thursday night to the effect
that the net result of the life insur
ance investigation as conducted by
Mr. Hughes was the substitution in
the Equitable Life Assurance Society
of "Ruthless Ryan for harmless
Hyde." Mr. Hughes declared his op
ponent was insincere in making such
a statement and could not "fool the
people."
He pointed out that the Ryan pur
chase of the Hyde stock was made be
fore an investigation was ever or
dered. and naturally before he had
anything to do with the subject. Mr.
Hughes repeated his charges of in
sincerity against Mr. Hearst. This
has been the keynote of all his later
utterances.
ONE RUN WAS ENOUGH.
Chicago Nationals Whitewashed Their
Opponents in Game No. 4.
Chicago, 111. —The world's cham
pionship baseball series is again
even, the local National league team
on Friday defeating the American
leaguers, 1 to 0. Each team hao now
won two games. Curiously enough,
both National victories have been on
the American grounds, while the
White Stockings have earned success
on their rivals' field.
Altrock, for the Americans, and
Brown for the Nationals, the pitchers
who opposed eacli other in the open
ing game, which was won by Alt
rock's team, again contested for su
premacy. Brown was at his best. He
showed nerve, speed, control and in
telligence. He gave only two passes
and allowed only two hits. He held
the Americans hitless until the sixth
inniwg, when, with two out, llahn hit
clearly to center. Jones, however,
promptly ended the inning by Hying
out to Schulte.
The Nationals earned the run
which won the game. Chance sent a
fly to short right field and reached
third on sacrifices by Steinfeldt and
Tinker. Evers placed a single over
third base and Chance scored.
The attendance reflected the im
proved weather, the official count
showing 18,385 paid admissions. This
was the last game in which the play
ers share the gate money. Total re
ceipts for the four games wore $61,-
855, of which $33,401.70 goes to the
players. Of this sum 75 per cent,
will goto the members of the win
ning team.
BUSINESS BULLETIN.
Reports froir. Every Branch of Indus
try Show Great Prosperity.
New York. —It. G. Dun & Co.'s
Weekly Review of Trade says:
Lower temperatures brought out
much business in seasonable linej of
wearing apparel and most reports
from wholesalers tell of the largest
volume of trade ever transacted.
Shipping departments are limited in
activity by inadequate railroad facili
ties and this difficulty is becoming
aggravated by the free movement of
grain and coal as the season advances.
Official crop reports covering condi
tions on October 1 indicated most
satisfactory grain prospects, but dam
age has since reduced the yield of
cotton and caused a violent rise in
prices. To this fact is due some ir
regularity in trade and collections at
a few southern cities, but most cen
ters report expanding business and
confidence regarding the future. In
the leading industries it is impossible
to secure prompt deliveries, even
contracts for shipment during the
first quarter of 1907 being difficult to
place with steel mills.
Failures this week numbered 217 in
the United States, against 214 last
year, and 28 in Canada, compared
with 25 a year ago.
King of Moonshiners Is Fined.
Richmond, Va.—Wayne It. Gcoch,

Expert with Bow and Arrow.
Nero Perry a:i old Chickasaw tieod
man, who lives on Caddo cm*k, in the
Chickasaw nation, supports himself
by hunting gamo with n bow and
arrow. Though 7G years old, lip can
send an arrow into a squirrel in the
tallest tree. Perry went to the
Chickasaw country in 1828 from Mis
sissippi with Jim McLish, his old mas
ter. They settled on the banks of
the Caddo creek, where they built
the first house erected in the Chick
asaw nation. Here they lived until
1861, when McLish died, then the
old place rever.ted to Perry, and there
he still lives.
WHO SHE WAS
SKETCH OF THE LIFE OF LYDIA E PINKHAIVI
And a True Story of How the Vegetable Compound
Had Its Birth and How the "Panic of '73 M Caused
it to be Offered for Public Sale in Drug Stores.
Tli is remarkable woman, whose
maiden name was Estes, was born in
Lynn, Mass., February 9th, 1819, com
ing from a good old Quaker family.
For some years she taught school, and
became known as a woman of an alert
and investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa
thetic nature.
In 1843 she married Isaac Pinkham,
a builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They hail
four children, three sons and a
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days it
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, nature's own remedies—
calling in a physician only in specially
urgent cases. By tradition and ex
perience many of them gained a won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
erties of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
bountifully provides in the harvest
fields and orchards vegetable foods of
all kinds; so, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex
pressly designed to cure the various
ills and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi
cines for her own family and friends.
Chief of these was a rare combina
tion of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure of the ills and weaknesses pecu
liar to the female sex, ami Lydia E. l'ink
ham's friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them.
All this so far wasdono freely, with
out money and with- it price, as a
labor of love.
But in 187.1 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. Its length and severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of the Pinkham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when the Centen
nial year dawned it found their prop
erty swept, away. Some other source
of income had to bo fotind.
At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound was made knowu
to the world.
The three sons and the daughter,
with thsir mother, combined forces to

restore the family fortune. They
argued that the medicine which was
so good for their woman friends and
neighbors was equally good for the
women of the whole world.
The Pinlchams had no money, and
little credit. Their first laboratory
was tho kitchen, where roots and
herbs were steeped on the stove,
gradually filling a gross of bottlesu
Then came the question of selling
it, for always before they had given
it away freely. They hired a job'
printer to run off some pamphlet*
setting forth the merits of the medi*
cine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham'*
Vegetable Compound, and these were
distributed by the Pinkham sons in
Boston, New York, and Ilrooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties of
the medicine were, to a great extent,
self-advertising, for whoever used it
recommended it to others, and the de
mand gradually increased.
In 1877, by combined efforts the fam*
ily had saved enough money to com'
mcnce newspaper advertising and from
that time the growth and success of
the enterprise were assured, until to
day Lydia E. Pinkham and her Vege
table Compound have become house
hold words everywhere, and many
tons of roots and herbs are used annu
ally in its manufacture.
Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not
live to see the great success of thia
work. . She passed to her reward years
ago, but not till she had provided
means for continuing her work as
effectively as she could have done it
herself.
During her long and eventful expe
rience she was ever methodical in her
work and she was always careful to pre
serve a record of every case tbatcame to
her attention. The case of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice—
and there were thousands —received
careful study, and the details, includ
ing symptoms, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records, together with
hundreds of thousands made since, are
available to sick women the world
over, and represent a vast collabora
tion of information regarding the
treatment of woman's ills, which for
authenticity aud accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in th«
world.
With Lydia E. Pinkham worked her
daughter-in-law, tho present Mrs.
Pinkham. She was carefully instructed
in all her hard-won knowledge, and
for years she assisted her iu. her vast
correspondence.
To her hands naturally fell the
direction of the work when its origina
tor passed away. For nearly twenty
five years she has continued it, and
nothing in the work shows when the
first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped her
pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham,
now the mother of a large family, took
it up. With women assistants, some as
capable as herself, the present Mrs.
Pinkham continues this great work,and
probably from the office of no other
person have so many women been ad
vised how to regain health. Sick wo
men, this advice is "Yours for Health"
freely given if you only write to ask
for it.
Such is the history of Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound; made
from simple roots and herbs ; the one
great medicine for women's ailments,
and the fitting monument to the noble
woman whose name it bears.
