Berlin, Aug. 31.--Prince! Arenberg, sentenced to: death. two years ago for a series of cruel murders and atroci- ties perpetrated while he was a lieu- tepant 'with the colonial troops in Africa, but who 'brought to bear aris- tocratic influence enough to get his sentence commud® to fifteen yoers' imprisonment, has just been removed from the Hanover prison under re- markable circumstances. He had = so corrupted his jailers with bribes. that he was enabled to give dibner parties to men and wo- men and to have visitors stay with him in prison. This state of things being discover: ed, the whole staff of the prison was dismissed and Arenberg has been transferred to Tegle, one of the mosk rigorous pénitentiaries in.

A current report has it that nego- tiations are on foot for the transfer of the title of the famous volcano, Mount Popocatapetl, in Mexico. Its present owner, Gen. Gasper Sanchez Ochoa, re- ceived it from the government of Mexico in recognition of certain poli- tical and military services, and is said to have offered it for sale at merely 85,000,000--a bargain, considering the millions of dollars worth of sulphur it contains. Two parties are declared to be bidding for it, one backed by John P. and Samuel Green; of Pittsburg There are two schemes by which it is proposed to work the sulphur: wine: one is to tunnel into the volemno at about 600 yards below the crater, and to remove the sulphur by ssmiechanical agent in the form of a cable conveyor consisting of a one ipeh ¥téel cable carrying buckets 100 fget apart. These will dip into the red hot molten sul phur and bring it out, the buckets travelling at the rate of 200 feet per minute. The éstimated cost of this equipment is about $500,000. The other scheme proposes. to send a cog wheel railway over the lip of the crater di rectly down into the sulphur lake, but it is questionable if sufficient founda tion is available to sustain the heavy supporting members that, would be ne cessary. For many generations this sulphur has been mined in a crude fashion, and it is believed to be 'inex- haustible, as it is apparently replenish ed as fast as it is removed. Its market price at present is $40 per ton; but there is no danger of the price falling by over-production at this source if the rumoured speculators acquire the Mountain. Sh --_---- Home Of Joa®t Of Axe.' Domremy lies iw a beautiful valley of the foot-hills of the Vosges Mountains, French -Borraine. The village has changed but little since the time of the heroic maid. The two-storey stone cottage 'where she was born still stands beside the very church in which she worshipped devoatly. Until its re- cent purchase by the government, this cottage had been owned by the des cendants of Joan. Some years ago a titled Englishman offered a large sum but, while poor, and needing the money sorely, the owner refused to pass this memorable spot into the possession of one of his coun try's former enemies. The national government, learning of this patriotic refusal, bestowed upon him the cross of the Legion of Honor, and appoint ed him chief forester of that depart- ment. The Poet's Reward. By Joel Benton in Four Track News Roses and lilies upon his bier The people piled up yesterday But better by far, when he was here, Their dollars and plaudits, and crown-wreathed bay. He was a poet who sang of life In many a cadenced tune and rhyme Though little he had of it hut strife And struggle, and heights too hard gto climb. A crust of bread and ap iron cot Were his--and a chi&mber seven by nine; The things he was born for Fate forgot To give him---except his lyre divine With chords of fancy and music rare And a summin~ of things in this mor- tal snhere, LHapny as Shakespeare's musings are-- Now roses and lilies upon his bier. Need Of Persistence. Philadelphia Record A psychological student of advertis ing has discovered why it is impor tant for an advertiser to keep before the public.

Three years ago, there was muck alarm over the organization of trusts. To-day, this alarm is transferred to the organization of labor. The capita- lization of trusts was estimated at $6,000,000,000, and the membership of unions has doubled since the trust era began. The trusts put up the prices of commodities and the unions t price of labor. But it was found that the wages of unorganized labor have also been increased. Both the trust and the union have thrived on . the general growth of prosperity, and both Fave been organized to get a larger share of that prosperity. There is a difference between the two organizations. The prices of eomumodi- ties rose earlier and went higher than the w of labor. Dun's "index num- ber" shows that the general level of prices rose forty "per cent. from July, 1897, to November, 1901, and has been nearly stationary for a year and a half. But there are very few umions nn, MISS MAGGIE L. WALKER President of the Peany Savings Bank, of Richmond, Va., which begins business on Tuesday Miss Walker is the first neero woman to occupy such a position that have secured an advance as high as forty per cent. The bituminous mine-workers, the longshoremen, the housesmiths,--unions of practically un- skilled labor--have made advances of forty per cent. to 100 per cent., but anthracite mine workers, street pail way employees, and the skilled trades generally have advanced only ten per cent. to thirty per cent. Railroad net earnings per mile of line increased fifty per cent. from 1807 to 1902, but it required another year for railway wages to reach their increase of fifteen per cent. to twenty per cent The very large increases above men: tioned took place in occupations where wages had heen seriously reduced dur ing the period of depression, owing to immigration and lack of organization. The smaller increases in the skilled trades occurred where wages had wot been reduced. The stove molders, for example, suffered no reduction what- ever during the depressiw, but they have since secured advances amounting to fifteen per cent. The contrast between the non-trust commodities and unorganized labor is even greater than that between trust prices and union wages. Breadstuffs and other farm products have risen fifty per cent. to seventy per cent.; and, while farm wages in the middle west have advanced fifty per cent., the wages of unorganized labor in manu- factures and transportation have risen ten per cent to twenty per cent. And in all cases the rise of wages has fol- lowed at a distance of one to two years behind prices. True, the aniount of employment has greatly increased, and this has occur- red at the time of the increase in prices and before the increase in wages Where there has been an increase of twenty per cent. in amount of employ- ment, and where daily wages increased twenty per cent., the aggrega® gain in yearly carnings has been forty-four per cent. From the standpoint of the istandard of living, the wage-ecarner's condition has more than kept pace with the rise in prices, i.e., his yearly earnings will pure hase more goods at the increased prices than could have been purchased in 1897 at lower prices. But from the standpoint of his share in: distribution, hiz position is lower, While the wage-earner has gained. in two ways--increase in rate of wages and increase in amdunt of employment ~the capitalist has also gained in two | ways, increase in prices and increase {in amount of production. If the wage- | earner works a larger number of days, | the employer gets a larger output. So | that, with prices forty per cent. high- er and wages twenty per cent higher, the wage-earner's share of the increas ed production .is less than his = share of the smaller production. Hie com- mand of comforts has increased, but the profits and rents from investments | have increased still more.--~From "The Present Status of the American Labor Movement," by John R.
