Sreaklng further, Mr. Krell said.

RESENTS ENGLAND'S ACTION.
"England's action In Inviting the Japa.

DECK CHAIR AS LIFE SAVER
fZrVS JV7MES A&MCI&
KINGLY FAVOR AND ANGER
Indicated Respectively by Waving
Hands and Toes of Dusky Monarch.
There was much ccremonw obserfd nt
the African King's court, says John II.
Weeks in his book, "Among tho I'llmi
tlve Rakongo " No one approaches him
without first seeking his permission and
no one Is nllowed to sit on a chair In his
presence except his sons and nephews.
Ordlnarv men approaching tho King
had to neel three times once Just In
fclde the last entrance to the king's In
closure. then near the door of the "pal
ace" and lanly Immediately In front of
his majesty. And the last time they
knelt they put the palms of their hands
together, rubbed their little fingers In
the dirt and then transferred the dirt
from their little fingers to their fore
heads or temples and clapped their
hands. This ceremony they ropeated three
tlmos at the last kneeling place, and the
king answered by putting the palms of
his hands across each other, with the
fingers of the right hand well above the
thumb and Index finger of the left hand,
and waving them. If the King did not
answer thus, or If he thrust out his foot
and waved his toos, which was an Insult,
the sooner the man retreated the better
for him.
If a man omitted to send or take the
King a share of his trading products ho
would not be favorably received and
might expect to see his majesty's toes
wave Instead of his fingers. Well to do
chiefs who failed to Bend him occasional
presents were also coldly received, and
the waving toes reminded them of their
delinquencies. No written account waB
kept, but the king, like all nutlves, had a
remarkable memory for what was owing
him and never forgot when a debt was
to be paid or a present was due. Chiefs
and noblemen had to render homage to
the King the same as ordinary men, but
not every time they went Into his presence.

The marine catastrophe In the St. Law
tence River, says Chambers' Journal, has
taught more than one valuable lesson,
foiemost nmong which may be mentioned
the necessity for having upon the decks
loor articles which, when sent adrift, are
able to Moat, and thus provide some means
of refuge to which Immersed passengers
may cling. The deck-chair Is an obvious
a-tide of this type, which Is Indispensa
ble t'pon the decks, but It possesses no
llve-rnvlng characteristics.
Hnd the unhappy liner been provided
with chairs which were itblo to float and
suppirt n dozen or more people, the denth
roll might not have been so heavy. The
passengers were thrown so suddenly Into
the water that there was no time to don
a life bolt, and, deptlved of floating nrtl
cloi to which they could cling, they were
drowned. Fnder theee circumstances It
socnia ns though buoyant deck chairs
should be rendered compulsory. In the
"quldns" chair, for Instance, Instead of
ordinary canvas being used for seating, n
cork nnd cellular construction Is employ
ed. Whon this chair drops Into tho water
It doits quite easily, and may be even
transformed Into a raft. The material
may be pulled nrottnd the frame of the
chnlr In the manner of a roller towel; and,
should exigencies permit, the release of
a knot removes the cork section nnd
stretches It out to a length of some 12
feet, forming a subtantlal raft capable of
maintaining the combined weight of sev
eral people.
It Is a chair with life-saving possibilities
which have been proved, nnd It should
bu used upon steamboats; hut It Is equal
ly Indispensable to houseboats and camping-out
parties. Oie cannot reasonably
expect steamnhlp companies to provide
devices which may never bo required; but
nt the same time a deck chair, which Is
Invaluable In times of emergency, seems
worthy nf adoption It Is more expensive
than tho ordinary deck chnlr, but In mat
ters of life and death the additional cost
Is unimportant.
ESCAPES IN BASS FIDDLE
Adventures of a Rumanian From the
Dangers of War.
When war Is In the air on the continent
of Europe a man who Is liable for military
service often finds It very difficult to
escape from the country. In the Wide
World Magazine T. J. Thomas tells the
story of the escapo of one Petru Cocan
from Hungary when, on account of the
Balkan crisis, tho decree had gone forth
that no man between tho ages of 16 and
K should leave tho country without a
passport.
Cocan, who was a Rumanian by birth
nnd had lived In America, could not get
n passport. He then went to the agent
of a transatlantic line nnd bought a ticket
for America on the assurance that tile
agent would get him out of the country.
After several days of suspense Coran,
with three other fugitives, was sent to
a place near the border, where they were
met according to agreement by a band of
Rumanians disguised as gipsy musicians,
four of whom carried huge bass viols.
The backs were removed from the viols
and In each there was a small seat
Cocan and his fellow fugitives took their
I places, the backs were fastened on the
I viols nnd again the musicians set out
for the border. All passed the guard
I safely except Cocan. His bearer got Into
a dispute with a soldier of the guard the
quarrel waxed violent, the bass viol fell
to the ground, the hack came off and

BASEBALL IN AUSTRALIA
Plnyers There Tnke Their Sports
Seriously, Says Tom McGuiro.
Tom McGuiro, the "Scotch" comedian,
was regaling Kdmund Hayes with a lot
of his sporting experiences while doing
the big time circuits In Australia. "Well,"
remarked McGuIre, "the Australians
surely do take their sports seriously. In
their garnet) they're as dignified ns a head
butler at a nouvcau rlche's reception. I'll
never forget a game of baseball 1 saw

ingly funny. The opposing tcama weie

was a lot of fluffs lounging nbout serv

matches.
"The players were the ncatoBt I. have
ever soen, nnd I've been present nt
world's scries games, at tho meeting of
Ynptown delegations, and county fairs
and I'vo seen ball players put on some
airs. Tho most dignified fellow on the
field was tho umpire. He was about seven
feet 6 Inches tall, and in his white flan
nel suit he looked like an animated stick
of chalk.
"He had one of those 'Pirates of I'en
znncrf" mustaches, which curved down to
his shoulders, wore n monocle, and
smoked a calabash pipe that hung down
to his knees.
"Talk about Silk O'Loughlln and some
of our claBsy arbitrators! They'd never
get off the mark with this one. The
pitcher wound up and shot one straight
over the oyster. His umps removed the
calabash from his face long enough U
sputter 'stroke once!' Then the pitcher
sent another Btralght over. 'Stroke a
couple' remarked tho arbitrator, as ho
again removed tho calabash.
"Then tho pitcher shot a wide one over
'Ball once!' remarked his umps. Another
wide one was served up by the heaver.
'Ilall a couple!' remarked the ump. Thon
the pitcher put another straight over the
pan. The ump adjusted his monocle,
yanked thn calabash out of his mouth
and sputtered. 'Stroke thrice, nnd you're
bloody well h'out, you bounder."

PDUTM ESTATE
SHOWS INCREASE
OF.TWO MILLION
Total Value of Late Pub
lisher's Holding Placed at
$18,637,545 in Report to
Surrogate. '
NEW YOniC, Sept. 23 The report of
tho rcnflprnlsnl of the cslnto of Joseph
Pulitzer, ordered by Surrogalo Cohnlnrf,
was submitted yesterday to the Surro
gate's Court by Transfer Tax Appraiser
Joseph I. Berry.
Tho report shows that the gross
valuation o'f tho estate has been In
creased from 18,62(5,116 to $20,3G&,r85, nnd
tho net from 1G,8I3,ISI to $18,637,515, n net
Increase of $1,791,061, Tho cstlmntcd
amount of the total tax Is $335,000, Before
tho first nppralsal $410,000 waB paid Into
tho State Treasury In order to take nd
vantage- of Iho 6 per cent, rebate, so there
will bo a rotund of approximately $75,000.
Iti order to get at the actual value of
tho Associated Prbss franchises held by
tho Press Publishing Company (the New
York World) and the rulltzcr Publishing
Company (tho St. Louis Post-Dispatch),
nnd to cstlmnto the good will of these two
newspapers, owned by Mr. Pulitzer, much
testimony was taken,
After showing thnt there had been no
change In tho nppralsal of the real
estate fixed In tho original report nt
$1,278,000, Mr. Berry placed the valuo of
4090 shares of the Press Publishing Com
pany stock at $3,267,631, or $651,73 a share,
nnd tho valuo of 9161 shares of tho
Pulitzer Publishing Company slock nt
(2,677,262, or $292.15 a share. In thus ap
praising the stock, Mr. Berry Btatcs, he
has added to the appraised value of the
corporation's tangible property a "good
will" valuo consisting of the value of
tho 'Associated Press memberships,
$150,000, nnd all other elements of good
will. In the original report tho franchises
were not valued as such.
Tho npprnHal Is arrived nt In part by
taking tho average annual earnings for
four years preceding Mr. Pulitzer's djcath
ns a basis for capitalization
One hundred and twenty thousand dol
lars Is allowed as an expenditure for
bonuses to employes. The appraiser nlso
considered the restrictions upon the sale
of tho stock of tho Press Publishing Com
pany Inserted by the decedent In his will.
In nppralslng the value of tho PreBS
Publishing Company tho nverago im
nttal net earnings are set nt S'll.lH
These deductions are nllowed: Slxtv per
cent, of Increase In the cost of white
paper, $210,000: allowance for decedent's
services, $100,000; 6 per cent, on capltnl
Invested, 121,330, and 6 per cent, on vnlue
of Associated Press franchise, J2S.SO0. Tho
total reductions are thus $160,130, and the
average net earnings as a basis for 10
per cent, capitalization, $S1 ISO.
The good-will, originally iipm-.nl-od nt
$1,000,000, Is brought down to $811,S02. The
nppralscd value of nsnoL' rvei llnlnii
Is $2,022,511, as In tho original report. This
Includes two Associated 1'icsa lionda
$1000 par value, nnd makes the ti.tal
valuo $3,307,671 gross nnd $3,267,0Sl not.
The nppralser states that the acrago
nnnunl not earnings of the rulltzer Pub
lishing Company for four joara woio
$I0S,4M. Tho nvcrage net earnings, Io3S
deductions, are $196,411.
Under the new appraisal the total per
sonal property Is valued at $1i.Oi7.9m
Thl", with the real estate, valued at
$3,27S,000, makes tho totul $20,3.'iJ,9S3 gross.
