Every-one has heard of A. H. Smith, the president of the New York Central, who began his career as an office boy In the supply department of a rail-road office In Detroit, where he had a soft and easy berth. His hair was nicely parted and he was dropping Into a well ordered groove which would have brought him IB a week in time If he kept a it. He was deeply Interested In the way a big transportation company should be run, but he did not see how he could possibly find out much about It by sorting index cards and letter-heads. This explains why he got a job as section hand and started to work his way up through the various grades which brought him to a com-manding position in the truffle world. - The secret of the success of Mr. Smith is that he knows every detail of the railroad business by experience. When he travels In his special car along the line he senses that a rusty wheel on a freight car on a siding means that there has been undue delay in that locality and that he must find out; why. - Enjoys It. "MaCe any New Year's resolutions?'' "Sure. It's so much fun breaking 'em afterwards." A conceited man will not talk about you behind your back. He will talk about himself.' ' HARSH TERMS ARE IMPOSEDBY ALLIES AGREE THAT GERMANY MUST PAY 226,000,000,000 GOLD MARKS FOR WAR DAMAGES. According to Plans Payments Will Be Made in Yearly Installments, Coverering a Period of Forty-tw- o Years. ' Paris. Full agreement on repara-tions, German disarmament and all other important quetions before it had been reached by the supreme council when it adjourned to meet In London on February 21. Germany will be called (on to pay in annuities on a sliding scale gold marks. HVr exports,, in addition, bear an export duty of 12 per cent for the allies. ' , On the basis of last year's exports, this would give the allies 1,250,000,000 gold marks, or 12 per cent of what-ever money In which the exports are paid for. Thus, it is estimated, the first payment made by Germany will be 3,250,000,000,000 gold marks, the ex-port tax being paid In cash. It Is pointed out that, besides being a sure method of collection. It will act as a protective tariff In, countries near Germany which are likely to be flooded with goods made hi Germany at a low cost. l'enaltles agreed on for violations will npply to all' agreements alike reparations, disarmament and coal de-liveries. A feature of the reparation plan, from the B'reneh point of view, is that it associates the allies In the benefits of Germany's prosperity. Examination of the reparations plan showed it provided that the 12 per cent tax on German exports would ex-tend over the same period as the stipu-lated reparation payments. Germany is to be allowed an 8 per cent cash discount on payments made in ad-vance. (The total of 220,000,000,000 gold marks of German reparation pay-ments called for by the plan would equal approximately $50,000,000,000 at normal exchange rates.) . It is understood that, for the purpose of inducing Germany to pay off her reparations debt as rapidly as possible, she would be allowed discounts on her annual payments. These discounts would be fixed at 8 per cent the first two" years, 6 per cent the two follow-ing and 5 per cent the remaining thirty-eig- years. ' As a guarantee against Germany's 'defaulting on her pnyments, the com-mittee recommended that In such an event German customs might be seized and new or increased taxes be Imposed. MINES M IIH61 Shipments of ore from the Park City district during the past week made an excellent Increase In volume. Last week's output from the Iron King amounted to seventeen carloads and it is understood that the ore is of excellent grade for fluxing. Four inches of chloride silver ore, n which will average in value npproxi- - 4 niiitely $2000 per ton, has been opened ' - up in the Silver Bar mine near Mina, Nev. Fourteen thousand six hundred forty-fiv- e barrels of crude oil was the 1020 output from the wells of tho y Emerald Oil .company, a Vernal, Utah, corporation. A large amount of work is to be done "' on the Jnrbidge-Buh- l Mining com-pany's property at Jnrbidge, Nev., dur-ing the coming season, according to an-nouncement made last week. A merger of half a dozen low-co-copper producers has been discussed by Interests affiliated with these prop-erties. This might include Chile, Ken-liecot- t, Utah, Itay Consolidated, China and Nevada Consolidated. Officials of the Silver King Coalition Mines company are of the opinion that ihe tue wnich destroyed the milling plant at the property at Park City was not altogether a misfortune, as a modern new mill will be erected. In the Tintic Standard mine there seems to be almost unlimited, quanti-ties of ore, nnd the present large out-put would undoubtedly be increased were it not for the fact that the sme-lters are continually putting on the brakes. At the plant of the Tintic Mining company the silver precipitator, in- - stalled over a month ago, is working in a very satisfactory manner. The ob-ject of tills equipment is to separate the gold and silver from the copper bullion. It is expected that the road between I'.uhl and Jnrbidge will be, put Into shape during the current year. The road up the mountain to the crater where the property yof the Jarbldge- - I5uhl company is located was complet- - ed last summer. At the Eureka' Standard tho work of enlarging the 500-fo- shaft is moving along in a most pleasing milliner. The work lias now been completed to a depth of sixty feet, and from all re-ports the shaft will be one of the larg-est and best in the East Tintic sec-tion. Ilecent developments in the oil sec-tion near Price, Utah, indicate unmis-takably that the potentialities of the slrurtures favorable to the storage of oil are to be thoroughly tested during the coming summer. Well-know- n capi-talists from all parts of the country are looking over the situation. The necessity for a duty of 2 cents . a pound on lead was explained to the liouse committee on ways and means lust week by Jerome J. Day of Wal-lace, representing the lead producers of the Coeur d'Alene mining district of Idaho, and by Ernest Bamberger, rep-resenting the Utah mine operators. In 1020 our mining states, Including Alaska, Philippines and Porto Itlco, ' produced 2,395,017 ounces gold worth V40.50VJ.400, and .r)0,r04,r04 ounces sil-ver worth $57,420,325. Compared with 1019 production, these figures indicate reduction in gold output of $10,824,000 and in silver output of 117,941 ounces. Informations charging the Midland Carbon company and the Occidental oil & Gas with 407 violations of the Wyoming law prohibiting use of nat-ural gas for the manufacture of car-bon black within ten miles of an in-corporated town or city, were filed at Basin, Wyo., last week by County At-torney Little, i The shaft at the North Standard property, Tintic district, is now Hear-ing the 1100 level and from the pres-ent outlook sinking will continue until the-115- lovel is reached. In order to ;'o below the latter point it will be necessary to secure another cable, the sone niw in use being good for about 1150 feet only. Negotiations have been practically completed whereby a closed corpora-tion of eastern men, to be called the Jndustrlnl Potash corporation, capital-ized at $.",0,000,000, will begin the ex-- ploitatlon of immense alunile deposits in the Mount Baldy, the Ohio and the Durkee mining districts, situated near Marysvale, Utah. Shipments from the Tintic district continued normal during the week ended January 27, although the num-ber of carloads shipped totaled 172, as compared with 177 carloads for last week. Tintic Standard, with 03 car-load of ore, Chief Consolidated with 34 carloads and Iron King with 10 car--' loads were the leading shippers. ' The first cut In the price of Wyo-ming crude, oil since 1017 occurred January 25, with the announcement by the' Midwest Refining company that the purchasing price for prac-tically all grades would be reduced 50 . cents a barrel. The gejieral' slump in stock prices throughout, the country hits not af-fected those of Eureka, Nevada, dis-'- , trict mining companies. In spite of the fall In the price of lead, the Improved showing in the mines of Eureka has more than offset any bear Influences. Excellent progress is being made at o the Tar Baby mine, according to the ; latest reports from the mine.. A dis-tance of 105 feet has been covered la drifting from the junction of the north-sout- h and east-we- st faults struck recently In driving the Tar Taby tunnel. s I I Good of Iowa Is No Misnomer j 9 m -- . James William Good (Rep.) of Iowa is one of the most influential members of the house of representa-tives and as chairman of the enlarged ' appropriations committee, is much In the' public eye. He was born In Linn County, la., In I860 and lives in Ce-dar Hapids. He got his education in Coe college and University of Michi-gan. He is a lawyer and has served In the house since the sixty-fir- st con-gress. Mr. Good handles bills appropriat-ing billions of dollars, each year, and he must be ready to answer innumer-able questions about them on the floAr. He gets away with the job, too, in spite of the fact thnt rweral members make It their special business to pick flaws In appropriation bills after they have been framed with months of labor by Mr. Good's committee. In his address upon the presenta-tion of the 19221 Sundry Civil bill Mr. Good said that the United States, as compared with other governments in the world, stands first In credit, first In international wealth and the lowest among the great nations of the world In Its Indebtedness as compared with wealth of its people. The United States today has a national wealth estimated at $240,000,000,-000- , and a nnttonal debt of approximately $24,000,000,000. Political Gems From Marshall Thomas Riley Marshall has been vice president of the United States for almost eight years through a per-iod as vital as any other of similar length in American history. They have been eight crowded years of war, of International re-adjustment, of ticklish domestic prob-lems. They have been eight years of governmental Innovations, sometimes revolutionary In their conception; eight desperate years of meeting emergencies that shook the founda-tions of our national life. ' Throughout this period Mr. Mar-shall, as the presiding officer of the United States senate, has heard and seen a lot and has gathered some definite opinions as to our method of government. He says, among other things: "We have gotten away from our original Idea of representative govern- - ment. it was never mtenueu inui our form of government should be a pure democracy. "The presidential primaries we have now mean nothing at all, and there 's much foolishness about our national political conventions. "This nation Is breaking down its presidents. It will continue to break them down so long as the present sjstem exists. There should be a single term for presidents, say six years, "One of the things that ought to, be done would have government clerks work eight Instead of seven hours a day. Then, right at once, we could get along with one-eight- h less clerks." SPECIAL MEDAL FOR THIS DOG St Bernard Forgot Eternal Feud With Cat Family and Braved Flames to Save Pussy. The supply of Carnegie hero medals would soon give out if all the brave and thoughtful dogs were remembered. A St. Bernard in the town of Everett, Mass., mindful of the traditions of snowbound travelers and his Alpine monastery, has just effected a triple rescue that entitles him to whatever dogdom can offer In the way of canon-ization, to match the name of the saint that his devoted breed already bears. First he woke up the families In two apartments by his loud barking when a fire broke out, and then, having started the human beings on thor hur-ried exodus to safety, he darted back through the smoke, got the family cat, which had been forgotten In the ex-citement, and reappeared with his tribal enemy ?n his mouth. Would all human beings have been so magnani-mous? Philadelphia Ledger. "rope superior to leather Fibrous Material Rapidly Supplanting Belting in American and Euro-pean Mills and Factories. ( For 20 years there has been an In-creasing use in this country of mantla rope for power transmission In mills and factories In place of leather belt-ing. In English factories ropes super-seded belting long ago, and their use Is nearly universal. In the United . States the change that has taken place began with the acquisition' of the Phil-ippine islands, where, as everybody knows, ' the manlla hemp flourishes. The fiber of this hemp varies in length from 6 to 12 feet, and occasionally at-tains a length of 18 feet. It Is said to possess greater tensile strength than any other fiber known, exceed-ing 50,000 pounds per square Inch. Rope drives, as transmission ropes are called, possess the advantage of noise- - lessness, owing to their flexibility and to the existence of an air passage in the grooves between the rope and the sheath. , t PRESIDENT VISITS THEATRE. First Time In Year That Chief Execu-tive Has Witnessed Performance. Washington. President Wilson, ac-companied by Mrs. Wilson, Tuesday night went to the theater, for the first time since he was taken ill, more than a year and a half ago. , The president and his party, which Included Mrs. Wilson's brother, John Randolph Boiling, nnd Mrs. Gait, ap-peared unexpected at a performance of John Drlnkwater's "Abraham Lin-coln," having entered through a stage door. AS the president went to one of the lower boxes he was recognized by the audience, which rose and cheer-ed. Mr. Wilson responded by bowing. Head on His Shoulders.

"You did not use the form 'Merry Xmas' this year." 'I avoided the 'X.' There is a time for everything, and I thought It would be as well not to do anything which might get article X mixed into the holiday picture." It is doubtful whether original sub-stitutes for "Good morning" are worth' while. CONGRESS TALKS DISARMAMENT But Goes Ahead Considering Military and Naval Grants Washington, i1-- Congress discussed disarmament on Wednesday, but went ahead considering large appropria-tions for the army and navy nnd re-ceived the views of President-elec- t Harding on the nation's military pol-icy, t Chairman Kahn of the military com-mittee told the house In debate on the military appropriation bill that he bad been Informed by Mr. Harding that the latter favored a regular army of 175,000 men for the present and also legislation providing for the vo-luntary military training of 150,000 men annually. Feudal Rights of the Atholls " The question has been raised In the British house of commons regard-ing the right of the duke of Atholl to maintain, a little, private army of his own. This array consists of about COO members of the clan of Murray, of which he Is the chieftain. It Is independent of the control of the Brit-ish war department. It is paid by the duke. As near as a mere American can make out, this curious state of affairs Is a relic of the feudal times when dufces of Atholl were also kings of the Isle of Man. This island lies In the etnter of the Irish sea, hence Its name Mannln, the middle. It Is fam-ous for the Manze language, bob-taile- d cats and Hall Calne. The history of the Island begins with the sixth century. For three centuries it had a line of Welsh kings Then came a line of Norwegian kings. In 1200 control was ceded, to Scotland. In 1290 the Manx placed themselves under' the bisection of Edward I. of England. Thenceforth the English kings granted the island to various royal favorites. Finally the smuggling got so bad that the British government bought the Island in 1829 for about $2,500,000. The Atholls were among the royal favorites mentioned; their former residence is sfill to be seen In Doug-las, the capital of the island. They had kingly rights, some of which, includ-ing Hie right to coin their own money, wera surrendered at the time of sale. ' ":' ' ' ' f .' Plot to Wreck Legion Home. Aberdeen, Wash.
