[The State.]
Washington, Mirch 18.-The State
department has received from Unite i
States Consuls Fowler at Chee F,,o,
and Ragsdale, at Tien Tmiti, reports
intended to show the effects of the
Boxer troules in nort.h China upon
United States trade with particular
regard to what Americans lost in
America through the outbreak, rather
than China.
A resume of tr.ade ret,vr'nsin north
China entire, comptring the qu-irter
ended June 30 last with that ended
September 30, shows an almost cow
plote annihilaution of the American
import trad-, and in Consul Fowler's
language, "gives a good idea of what
a mob in China can do in interfering
with trade."
The greatest lois was felt in cotton
piece goods, and the cessation o t hi
class of imports says the consul anit
have been most keenly felt in th#
Southern States. Probabi % no coan
try in the world, Gunul Fowl(-r
states, sulfered as ntivh as did the
United States, for the snene of strife
covered practicall the entire Amer
can field of trade. In comloiling the
statistics, the amounts are iidicattd
by gallons, pieces or set out in Chi.
nese money, so that an #-stimate ot
the total actual value of the losses
sustained is not eaily avail.,ble, but
the comparative tables indicating tho.
greatest increase in our trade with
China ever known at he bgi-ning of
1000, and settiag fort h t he most seri
ons losses to it, at the end of the
year, are stificiently imprssive to
serve the purpose. At Cheo Foo,
which, compared with the immeainte
northern ports, was peaceful, there
were more riots and tirmults than
were ever known before, and the va
rious American mis-ion losses proba
bly will total $150.000 in gold. Af
ter June 15 the imports at Chee Foo
ceased, all commercial transactions
being absotitely nil. The effect of
the boxer mlvement is shown to have
been felt much earlier and more seri
ously at Tien Ttin than at Uhee Foo.
Ships loaded with Oregon lumber
reached Takn and were unable to
land their cargoes, thus entailing an
enormous loss upon the American
lumber tratde. At Niu Chwang, which
saw more lighting than Tien Tsin,
the trade was almost completely
wiped out. The only foreign power
that interfered there wvas Russin, that
government seizing the port as early
as August 4. On August 12 it had
control of t be custom house.
The total collection of duties for
all china duingt the quarter ended
September 30, lait, showing a loss of
2,45,591 haikwan tacis as compared
with the same p -riod of 18991 The
figures submitte,1, Con-tul F~owler
points out, do not fully show Ameri
can losses, fur immense quantities of
merchandise were hel.l up in the va
rious parts which must be worked off

Losses to the cattoum t rade a one are'

It is said that there are two mil.
lion acres of land in TVexaq that can
Sbe-used in the. prodnetit i rice.
This will give some idea ot the won
derful p,ossibitlities of this crop, which
is nOW raised to ounl, a comparatively
*small extent in thbe United States.
Texas laest year had about 50.000
acres of land devoted to rice culture.
This year the acreage is estimated at
125i,000s which is a wonderful in
crease in what is a new crop for this
State, and which was not thought
possible of cultivatioun In Texas until
a few years ago. Louisiatta, a State
that has been growing rie for zruny
years, will not show more than 00,
000 acres this spring. Texas will
undoubtedly have an acreage in ex
cess of that within another year, and
each season promises to record a
wonderful increase in the'crop, which
can be raised in this State at less ex
.pense and with greater success than
in any other part of the Union.
But with such a rapid increase in
the crop it will be necetnary to insure
a like gain in the consumptive do
mand in order to make the raising of
rice profitable. Juht now the profit,
in the business are very large and,
while it is true that rice could be
raised and sold for less money, which
would be one way of incraling the
demand, the great need just at this
time is to let .the whole world know
the value of rice as food. Compara
tively few people in this country eat
rice to any extent and thousands of
persons have never tasted it.
One great factor in educating the
people as to the posqibilities of rice
1s food will be the rice kitchen to be
established by the Rice Growers' As
1ociation, of Texas and Luuisiana, at
Lte Pan-American Exposition at Buf
falo. The success of this project is
now assured, and the millions of peo
pie who visit the great Buffalo Expo
-ition will see rice exhibited there i,
&,very form, and will have an oppor
Imity of ditcovering the many ways
in which it can be cooked, and of
tasting the palatable dishes that. can
te made with this cereal as a basis
The passenger traffic department
of the Soutbi r.a Pacifiv Railroad is
Aso doing a great work in behalf of
rice education. That railroad is get
ibg out large q,nantities of rice lit
erature and is circulating it in every
part of the Union One of the late.t
projeits of Mr. S F. B. Morse, pas.
seuger traffic manager of the road,
I-' to issue a booklet containing 200
receipts for preparing rice for the
table. Perhaps not one housekeeper
in a hundred, even in the South,
where rice is better known than in
any other section of this country,
could prepare more than half a dozen
dishes with this cereal. To demon
strate that there are 200 good things
to eat, with rice as a basis, will be a
revelation to housekeepers through.
out the land and will undoubtedly
greatly stimulate the use of the pro
duct. These booklets will be distrib
uted at the Buffalo Exposition rice
kitchen, and elsewhere, and will serve
to create an interest in the cereal
wherever seen.
The greatest food experts declare
that there is more nutritive elements
in rice than in any other grain that
is eatem, consequently the campaign
to make more people eat rice deserves
ever) encouragement even from a
humanitarian standpoint.
The Sword of Damocles.
There was once a king whose
name was Dionysius. He was so
unjust and cruel that he won for
himself the name of tyrant. He
knew that almost everybody hated
him, and so lie was always in dread
lest somebody should take his life.
But he was very rich, and he
lived in a fine palac~e where there
were many beautiful and costly
things, and he was waited o'n by a
host of servants, who were always
ready to do his bidding. One day
a friend of his, whose name was
Damocles, said to him:
"How happy you must be. You
have here everything that man could
wish."
"Pehsps you would like to change
places with me," said the'tyrant.
"-No, not thit, 0 kingl" said
Damocles; "but I think that if I
could only have four riches and
your pleasures for one day. I should
not want any greater happiness."
"Very well," said the tyrant,
"you shall have them."
And so the next day Damocles
was led into the palace and all the
servants bidden to treat him as their
master. 'He sat down at a table in
the banquet hall aird rich food was
placed before him. Nothijs was
wanting that could give hinm pleas
ure. There were costly wines gntd
beautifurl flowers, and rare perfumes
and delightful music.
He rested himself among *soft
cushions and felt that lie was the
happiest man in all the world.
Then lie chanced to raise his eyes
toward the ceiling. What was it
that was dangling above him, with
its point almost touching his head?
It was a sharp sword, and it was
hung only by a single horse-hair.
What if the hair should break?
There was danger every moment
that it would do so.
The smile faded from the lips of
Damocles. His face becaie ashy
pale. His hands trembled. He
wanted no more food; lie could
drink no more wine; he took no
more delight in the music. He
longed to be out of the palace and
away, he cared not where.
''What is the matter?'' said the
tyrant.
"That sword! Tha. sword!" cried
Danioclcs. IIe was so badly fright
ened that lie dared not move.
"Yes," said Dionysius, "I know
there is a sword above your hcad,
and that it may fall at any moment.
But why should that trouble you?
I have a swort over my head all
the time I am every moment in
dread test something may cause me
to lose my life."
"Let me go." said Damocles. "I
now see that I was mi.staken, and
that the rich and powerful ate not
as happy as they seem. Let me go
back to my old hone in the poor
little cottage among the mountains."
And so long as lie lived he nevcr
wanted to be rich, or to change
places, even for a moment, witlh
the king.--Young People's Paper.
Enthusiasm.
Mr. D L Moody illustrates his
idea of Christian enthusiasm by the
following:
"There was an old man I wanted
to see when I first went to Europe
in x867-. I was told :not to. ,fail to
go to Edinburgh and see Dr Duff,
of the Assembly. I stayed in Edin
burgh a week to get a little of the
old man's fire. He. plead for an
hour and a half foeJUdia, and at
the end of au hour and a half
he fainted away. T1hey took him
up and carried him to the vestibule.
When he revived be said, 'I didn't
get quite through, let me go back
and finish.' They said, 'If you go
back it will cost you your life.'
'Well,' he said, 'I shall die if I
don't.' So they carried him back.
As they passed up the aisle the peo
pie rose, and tears flowed down
every cheek at the sight of the old
veteran. He said to them:
"'Fathers and mothers of Scot
land, is it trute that you have got tno
more sons to gis e to India? I have
spent twenty five years of my hife
there, anid I have conie back to die;
there is plenty of money in ite
bank, butt your sonis are not willing
'to go. If a call cotmes from the
quceti to go there in the army, they
are ready. Is it comte to this, that
the Lord calls for recruits fur his
kingdom, and they will not go!' And
turtling to the moderator lie said,
'If there is no otie to go to India I
will retnrn to them, and will ILt
themi know that there is one old
Scotchmati that can die for them,
if lie can't live for them.'
"My frietnds, that is what I call
enthusiasm."
