WHY THE PRINCE OF WALES DID
Nor ATTEND A REvIEw.-Mr. l.. j.
Jennings iD his last letters from Lon
don to the New York World says:
IL set out, however not to retail gos-
sip but to refer to matter which has
been 80 generally talked about that it
would be mere affectation on my pert
to be silent respecting II. 1t relates to
the absence of the Prince of Wales
from the review of the troops by the
Queen last week. SO general has
been the talk on the subject that at
| last the Times seems to have been de-
sired to offer sort of explanation and
it is that the Prince of Wales was not
| invited to attend by reason of an over
sight Now an oversight which leaves
the heir apparent out IN the cold could
scarcely have been an undeslgned one
| and all sorts of motives are attributed
to the Queen for passing this slight up
on her eldest son. In reality however
there is nothing mysterious abo Ut IT,
The Queen has always been jealous
of the Princes popularity with the
army, and when she reviews her
troops she desires no one to come be-
tween her and them. She is mon
arch and will have no divided allegi-
anoe. The Prince of Wales holds Ger
tain positions in the army which could
scarcely have been refused to him,
| but he has been made to understand
before now that g royal review OF
the troops does not mean q review In
which he can take any part. Inc
Queen in fact means to be the sovel
eIgn as long as she lives aud she often
shows that she cares nothing whatever
for any remonstrances criticisms Of
suggestions. that may be addressed tt
her

We have not exhausted the list by a long
way OF men worth several millions each. In
fact we have no means of determining ac-
curately the fortunes of considerably num-
ber OF men who are very rich. The number
of men who are millionaires in this State
was never so great as now. None of them
were rich twenty years ago, and very few
had fortunes even ten years ago. Quite a
number OF those who had large fortunes five
OF six years ago do not now figure in he
list of millionaires. Tue ups and downs of
mining interests have made the principal
difference. A considerable number, also,
who were not rich Ave years ago, have arge
fortunes to-day. Financial "ruin" in this
State only means that men in the ha ards
OF business have lost, with the strong p oba
bility that they will more tuan make their
losses good in the future II 1t is land
OF "upps and DOWNS" there never was a
country where men got up so soon as in
this. There is spring, untiriUg energy
men who have faith In themselves, in the
country, and in the good Providence which
is on the side OF all who honestly try to help
themselves. ~
We have purposey omitted from this ar
ticle the long list OF men worth from 81 ,000,-
900 to $30O0,O00. There Is not anptber
country under the sun where so many men
have made large fortunes in so short time
without CO pital for q start. There Is not
another young city in the world which con-
tains SO large population OF wealthy men,
These facts illustrate IN a striking way the
wonderful resources of this coast. The
men whose fortunes have bsen enumerated
are only middle aged. 1t Is more than
probable that some of these or their heirs
will be the richest men in the world.

The Potato Starch Industry.

O1e of the important manufactured pro-
ducts of the small country towns of New
England and New York State ia potato
starch. 1t is believed that nearly 3,000,-
900 bushels of potatoes are frequently con-
sumed per year in the States of Maine,
New Hampshire, Vermont and New York
in the production of potato starch. This
amount is three.eighs as large as the total
potato crop of Name, ree-fourths as large
as that OF New Hampshire, three.fifths as
large as that of Vermont, one-tenth as large
as that of New York State, of about the
same magnitude as that of Massachusetts,
and much larger than The crops of Connec-
lieut. or Rhode Island. There are about
225 factories engaged in the manufacture
of potato starch, aud probably all of them
with one or two exceptions are located in
the States of New York, Maine, New
Hampshire and Vermont. Probably The
average price paid for potatoes by starch
manufactures during the past season has
been thirty cents per bushel. The aggre-
gate annual production of all the factories
is usually from 5000 to II, 200 tons. A
bushel of potatoes generally makes eight
pounds of starch, $50 bushels, therefore,
being required for a ton. AS the average
market quotation of potato starch is about
five cents per pound, it follows that bush
ell of potatoes brings only forty cents after
being converted into starch, and the value
Of the total production of potato starch in
the country is from 100000 TO 81 POO, 900
per annum.

Tho Wool Trade.

The sales of wool at Boston last week
were the largest ever made 10 one week,
close on to 100000, namely, 2,745, 900
pounds of domestic and 1901, 900 of for
eign. The sales of the last seven weeks
amount to over 10 O0O,0O0 pounds, Low
grades Of domestic and fine of foreign have
been the most active, with large sales of
Michigan and Ohio at 40 per cent above the
prices OF last year. Why manufacturers
rushed into the market and overbid each
other to such a degree is mystery, and
there is no little fright among them at what
has happened. Wool has been the great
feature of the business of the season.
Wheat could be sold if it was to be had,
and it Is said that steamer-room has been
engaged a month ahead for breadstuffs to
arrive at New York. The Pacific coast al
together will have about 400, 900 tons of
wheat aud flour, against 100000 tons last
year, to export, but prices are 30 much
higher that an equal amount Of money may
be realized AT the opening of the harvest
prices at San francisco are 81 cents o
pound, against B last year. The railroad
troubles, by the way, are pooh-poohed by
the trunk-line managers, and do not threat
en- open war. The British revenue returns
indicate considerable increase of business
in that country.

the only means for getting rid of her, man
named Hanlon making murderous assault
upon her on the 4th inst. She was the ter

at one time Sunday excursionists made
business lively for the saloons and hack
men. Resolving to check the ruin of the
village che hunted up the liquor and hack
laws and called upoa the authorities to en-
force them. She made complaints and fur
nished evidence, the result being that many
licenses were revoked and the saloon keep
ers put to much trouble. Finally there
were only five licences remaining, and Mrs
Parish has the holders of these under bail
for keeping dlsorderly houses. Since she
has been confined 10 her house the saloon
and hack busi less fiourishes again. Mrs.

SEA WEED ToNIo

In the atmosphere experienced here during
the summer months, the legorthy produced by
the heat takes away the desire for wholesome
food, and frequent perspirations reduce bodily
energy, particularly those suffering from the
effects OF debiitating diseases. In order TO
keep natural heslthful activity Of the system
we must resort to artificial means. For this
purpose Schencks Sea Weed Tonic Is very
effeotual. Afsw doses will create an appetite
and give fresh vigor to the enervated body.
For dyspepsia, IL is Invaluable. Many eminent
physicians have doubted whether dyspepsia
can be permanently cured by the drugs which
are generally employed Tor that purpose. The

How to Fish for Trout-A Few Hints
for Local Fishermen.

Douglas Frazer gives instruction in Har-
per's Magazine, how to fish for trout. AL
ways Ash down stream. In fishing up
stream the bait 10 continually coming home
to ones feet after every cast, and the near
er 1t approaches the person, the less chance
of a bite. 1t is best to wade in the bed of
the stream, as by this means ore Can keep
the bait in the water for long distances
without making a cast. Give up all idea
of using artificial flies; there is usually no
chance 10 cast them, and very few fish will
rise to them. Use light jointed pole, not
over twelve feet in leaght, with delicate
running gear and small compact reel; small
hooks gagged on silk worm gut. Put no
lead on your line, as it kills the artistic and
natural motion of your bait. Use angle
worms, and these may be much improved
by being kept few days on clean moss in
an uncovered, large mouthed bottle. In
batting the point of your hook it had bet
ter not be covered. Take a worm by the
middle and pierce the hook through small
portion, say half an inch; then put on an
other in the same way at the same time.
There is great science in batting, and 1t
chiefly rests in the skill of having the
worms lively, and with the extremities left
dangling. When you have a bite, do not
pull at all, but strike your fish, as it is
called. This Is done by a motion of the
wrist, sharp, short, abrupt; not jerk, a
motion which is commenced sharply. but
ends almost instantly and abruptly. Be in
no hurry TO land him; you can do it at your
leisure, stepping back to a sure foundation
before raising your fish gently from the wa.
ter. The great mistake made by those who
do not understand this sport is 10 pull the
moment they have a bic. The result US,
ually is to see the trout wind himself round
about some limb overhead, or if he failed
to be hooked, which is often the case In
pulling, to see the bait and hook in the SAME
position. Remember that trout are very
shy, and once having disturbed them II II

A Child's Fearful Experience - 4
Night of Terror.

day was spent in searching for the
missing boy, participated in by the entire
village, but no trace of him could be found.
With lanterns and shouts and firing of guns
the hunt was kept up al. night, in spite of
the hard showers that fell, and one of the
most terrific displays of thunder and light
ming ever known in that vicinity. People
were beginning to lose all hope of finding
the little fellow, and the horrible suspicion
of destruction by some wild beast took pos
session of many. Just after sunrise, how
ever, Morday morning, the almost distract
ed father OF the boy discovered him crouch
ing at the foot of burned stump, soaked
TO the skin by the rain, and apparently
dumb with fright. The father bounded
toward him with cry of Joy, and the little
fellow was the next instant sobbing on his
breast. Mr.. Adams himself was almost
overcome with emotion over the finding Of
his child. The child said he had calico to
his papa several times, when he was fright
ened into silence by strange noises he
heard. He had heard the shouts and guns,
but was afraid TO answer. The thunder
and lightning had frightened him nearly to
death. Not more than hundred feet
from where the boy was found large oak
tree had been struck by lightning and
shattered into splinters. There was gen.
