Neff, of El Paso, and is himself a former El charge of extensive mining operations for the Remington Arms company. From 1S75 to 189S he engaged as a mining engineer In South America, Mexico, Arizona and Nevada. He was appointed TJ. S. consul, 1SS4, at Paso del Norte (now Juarez), Mexico, and U. S. consul in Piedras Negras, Mexico (now C. P. Diaz) from 1889 to 1S93. On declaration of war -with Spain he immediately offered his services, and was appointed major, signal corps, TJ.

Captain, signal corps, regular establishment, February 2, 1901, and major August 2. 1905. From 1901 to 1903 and 190C to 190S he served in the Philippines as signal officer of military deparnrfents, and finally as ch'ef signal of ritei of the Philippines division.

The officer, assigned on be half of public, justice, did not even know two of the commonest expres sions in the criminal's alphabet, which any police reporter could have inter preted Instantly. On the chance that you are neither a police repotrer nor a criminal, I will explain that "soup," in the "yeerfr" vocabulary, means nitro- o-lvOYMn o-rwl Via "cnnIKe " in tit coma parlance, stands for a fuse. The Underworld. What is that vague, mysterious re gion which we know as the "under world?" "Where is it? We talk bitterly or pathetically of our "criminal class es," of the "nonsocial" strata " of hu manity. What do we mean? To most of us, the "criminal" and the "under world" are something as vague and far away as the Fiji Isla'nds or central Africa. Do you know that our criminals cot us $3,500,000 a day? Do you know that 250,000 persons whom the law never touches are eu gaged in the systematic pursuit of crime as a business? Do you know that the American pick pockets are as thoroughly organized as any trades union? Do you know that the pickpockets of New York retain the permanent serv ices of one of the best known criminal lawyers of the United States to look after their ''Interests?" Do you know that there is a certain wealthy Hebrew resident of New York who owes his income to the fees of nrominent criminals, who pay him to travel up and down the country as a "fixer" between them and the police? Do you know that during the past 10 years the tramp burglars of this coun try have almost doubled? Do you know But let me emphasize the cost of our I the way from spoons to diamonds, from Panama hats to cloisonne vases, from horses to automobiles. Adam Worth, possibly the greatest "sneak thief" that the world has ever known, it Is esti mated by the Pink?rtons, secured a plunder of $3,000,000 during his life time, the loot circling from posti stamps to a Gainsborough picture, val ued at $50,000. In the early -60's, j band of fhree sneak thieves, "Hod" En nis. Charlie Rose and "Piano Charlie" Bullard, entered the office of L.Brd, the .Broad street broker, of New York city, and stole a bag of government bonds worth $1,200,000. They got away- with it, too! Some Calculations. Suppose a burglar enters your house and makes a comprehensive sweep of your valuables. Let us say that he gets your watch and most of your wife's jewelry, and then dumps your silverware into his bag. When you discover the robbery the next morning, you estimate that the missing articles cost you perhaps $S00 or $1000 In cash. The burglar is never cdptured and your goods, of course, are gone forever. The thief maj' have disposed of them at a pawnshop three blocks from you yes, this has happened or he may have taken them to nnother city. He realizes, perhaps, $200 profit from the night's work. This, then, is the sum which en ters Into the estimate of the yearly in come of the gentlemen who live ,by their wits, who make a profession of crime. In. order, however, to obtain a complete survey of the cost of our criminals, we must now reckon the losses of the victims, under which head your $800 or $1000 is Included. Our calculations carry us" Into a realm of high arithmetic which can well stag ger us. Suppose that of the $400,000, 000 "earnings" of our criminals only onequarter of this is represented by cash or bonds.

This company became a part of the Second Michigan battery (later Battery B. First Michigan light artil lery), and young Fechet -was mustered into the service of the United States at Grand Rapids Mich., November 26, 1S61. At Pittsburg landing April 6. 1862, the battery held an advanced position in front of Prentiss's division and was attacked before reveille, and with dif ficulty escaped capture before its guns could be brought into action. The bat tery was heavily engaged all das hold ing the "Hornet's Nest" with infantry support .until finally at the close of the first day's fighting, the small rem nant was captured. Young Fechet suffered all the priva tions of .southern prison life until ex clange in November, 162. He served with his battery in northern Mississippi in the region of Corinth and Iuka and in Tennessee , until November. 1863, "when he reenlisted as a "veteran vol unteer" to serve until the war was over. At this time he was first sergeant of the batters', although the youngest man in the command. April 10, 1864, he was discharged from the volunteer service by reason of appointment as a cadet at the U. S. military academy, and entered the class of 1864, graduating in June, 1868, as second lieutenant, Second U. S. artillery. He served with the first troops that garrisoned Alaska in the fall of 186S, and afterward had frontier service in Arizona. Oregon and Nevada. In 1872 he was selected by Gen. W. T.

The golden yield of wheat for the year 190S brought the Ameri can nation a total of 735,000,000. In everj corner of the nation where men burrow underground to find the fuel which warms them above ground, the production of coal for this same J period spreads its bulk to the pinnacle of $350,000,000. Two sets of figures two widely varying harvests of the soil. Together they will pass the billion dollar mark by a margin of $85,000,000. In this same year of grace, American wool, the shearing of the millions of sheep at the four points of the compass, brought to the pockets of the Ameri can people $29S,000,000. Before us, we now have three columns of figures, and their combined total gives us the giant's calculation of $1,373,000,000. This is what crime costs' the American nation each year. "We pause aghast before the $964,000, 000 of our national debt. If American crime could be eliminated for eight months, the saving to the country would liquidate this obligation vin full. Our imports of merchandise for one year are $100,000,000 less than tlie cost of our crime. The output of our gold and silver mines for one year is equal to only half the cost of our crime. Lump the market value of all of our horses, our cattle, and our sheep, and the cost of our criminals for one year "would just balance the result. Everj' hour of the 24. whether the nation is asleep or awake, our crime costs us over $100,000. And it is increasing, gentlemen of the police. Hero is the table of national taxation, due' directly or Indirectlj' to crime gathered also from the records of the New York Prison Reform association: "What Crime Conts the American People Kncli icar In Taxes.

The American nation spends $255,000,000 each s'ear to cover onls' the taxes due to crime. Threefourths of this sum is expended for the punishment of crimes that are besond recall! "With the exception onls' of our school houses, evers public building erected by the American government is needed wholly or in partj because of our crime. AVe spend each vsrear $175,000,000 to maintain our public schools, that our children may become good citizens. We spend $190,000,000 each year to punish those citizens who have failed to profit by our teachings. New York pas's $5,000,000 annually for her fire department. The losses from her fires during this period, borne by the citizens and the insurance 'com panies, reach to six and seven times this figure. "We have considered in the foregoing tables only the money that we spend from the standpoint of crimi-'l nai taxation. It would be as absurd to pause at this point as dt would be to assume that the cost of the fire depart ment covers also the ravages ' of our fires. What of the ravages of our crime? Two estimates in ms' notebook state boldly that we have 10 times as many unconvicted criminals as convicted criminals. Recorder Hill, of Birming ham, England, speaking for the world as a whole, declares that there are five times as mans professional criminals at noerts' as we lodge in confnement, and I have found a disposition by our American prison officials to accept his statement at par value. With a prison population of 100,000, this means, then, that there are 500,000 unconvicted, un detected at large. Criminal nrnlnjrs. The New York Prison Reform asso ciation places the yearly "earnings" of the average criminal at the sum of $1600, with the significant footnote that this figure is under, rather than over, the true amount. In multipls'lng this' estimate by the number of our profes sional lawbreakers, I have cut recorder Hill's statistics squarels' in two for the sake of conservatism. Assuming that been sold at onefourth or onethird or onehalf of their value, as the case mas' be. Find the total losses of the victims for yourself. Perhaps the calculation will reconcile you somewhat to s'our own losses. When srou consider the $50,000 or $100,000 or $200,000 plunder In many cases, as in the $173,000 loot ing of the United States subtreasurs of Chicago, Feb. 25, 1907, or the $120. 000 bond theft from Henrs Comstocki of Denver, on the Fall River steamer, Puritan, June 11, 1905, or ans' of the jewel robberies in and around New York city which, bfjought a plunder of over $1,000,00'0 in the three s'ears, 1905, 1906 and 1907, or but whs' prolong these statistics? The police do not at tempt to dens the national drain of our criminals. I have not placed it so high as many of the expert criminolo gists whom I have consulted. It is all a fact of record, and a simple question of addition and multiplication. In the two cities of Chicago and New York, $1,000,000 worth of stolen prop erts was recovered last s'ear. How many times this amount was not recov ered? The sear books of our police most of them will tell S'ou nothing. Thes are designed to tell sou nothing. In a wide list which I have leathered, I find the 100 page reports filled with such carefulls' compiled tables as the number of "abandoned vehicles foun 1 on the streets," "licenses for masque rades and fanes dress balls," "public lamps not lighted." "number of letters received and answered," "funeral per mits," "lost children found," "obstruc tion of sidewalks," and so on. WIi-mi we look for the amount of stolen prop erty reported during the s'ear. the num ber of holdups and burglaries, the list I of homicides, we search in vain. j A number of scars ago, the jewelers tpf America were forced to form a na tional detective organization to guard their property. The bankers of Amer ica have done likewise. So have the hotel keepers. So have the railroads. Thes could not depend on the public police. It was cheaper to maintain a, police ssstem of their own. Will the people cf America also be forced to em ploy private watchmen? Gentlemen of the police, you are on trial. The protection of public properts and public life is in s'our hands. You have not protected it ou are not protect ing it. WHY?

It is planned that this zone shall have a uniform width of about 25 miles and that it shall extend from the Pacific to the Atlantic oceans. Within this zone all forms of gambling and liquor sell ing shall be prohibited. Already gambling is prohibited in most of the Mexican border states, ex cept upon special occasions, such as during religious fiestas and the Christ mas holiday season. The fact tliat the saloons in all of the towns on the Mexican side of the bor der are kept wide open on Sundays and. are the gathering place for many Americans from the "drs" towns on' the Urclted States side, practlcalls nullifies the effect of prohibition in all that scope of territors situated close to the line. It is claimed bs these prohibition and anti-gambling advocates that the government authorities of the state of Chihuahua, including governor Enrique C. Creel, are disgusted with the racing game as it Is now being conducted at Juarez, and that, unless the owners of the concession adopt some radical re forms governing the sport, the order may be issued for the abolishment of the track. It is stated that, since racing was opened at Juarez, that town has become the rendezvous for the .riffraff of the American gambling element from all over the countrs' that they have spread down into the more interior parts of Mexico, and are giving the police of the different towns no little trouble. A number of them have alreads been ex peled from the country under the per nicious foreigner ict.

Postum inad of clean hard wheat (in cluding the bran-'-oat with its "vital phos phates, " grWn i:i the grain) quickly assists in rebuilding the worn-out body cells, because it contains these valuable elements in liquid fonn; in fact, it, i a veiy alatable liquid food.
