MEXICO is figuring on supplying
this country with silver when the
price gets SO low here that we can
not produce any more. Her peon
labor will allow working Of Mexican
mines when those of this country
will have to close. 1t is Il great adj

Second In Importance as Il seaport in
South Africa is Port Elizabeth. on the
east coast. about 800 miles from Cape
Town. This is the nearest port to the
diamond fields at Kimberley. and 10 this
and similar advantages of location Port
Elizabeth owes its Importance. 1t is
situated on Algou bay. which is little
better than an open roadStcad and affords
most treacherous anchorage during the

How He Managed Matters.

In the postoffce at Epson last Wednes-
day night we overheard IL conversation be-
tween two racing gents" whose pardon
we ask for repeating it. One Of them had
evidently deserted his wife some little time
previously. She had found him out and
written for money. In one hand he held
the reply he had written her and in the
other e5 flash" note on he Bank OF Elc-

he finished the epistle, "ow'll this go?"
and he read aloud: Dear Emma send

He Left His Machin for the Back OF a
Brindled Cow.
People on West Side avenue were startled
and amused yesterday morning to see an
overgrown boy, or rather, young man,
come tearing down the street upon the
back Of q brindled COW. The COW was
scared but the young man was the more
frightened Of the two. He was livid in
spite of the layer of the West Side avenue
dust which covered his face, II his hair
stood almost straight. He had lost his hat,
and his coat tails were flying straight be-
hind him. Every movement of the cow
jounced him into the air, and every time
he came down a look Of agony overspread
his features. The COW was finally stopped
by some West Siders who understand the
creatures and the young man dismounted.
He told a JERSEY CITY NEWS reporter
how he got into such a ridiculous position,
but disereetly withheld his name. He
was d bicycle rider and rode a high wheel.
With some friends IN ~safeties he had
started for the Irvington-Millburn races.
They We're riding along West Side avenue
when the mishAp occurred.
The COW was munching grass beside the
road, and he doesn't know exactly how it
happened, but he tried to turn out of a
wagon rut and the first thing he knew his

going toward the gutter at a lively rate.
