KAFFIR NINE BOOM.
The Fabulous Stories. of Fortunes Made
Are Not Exaggernied, It Is Said.

New YORK, Oct 11-Levi Mayer, a
prominent attorney of Chicago who has
been in England for the past four weeks,
has returned TO New York, and dis
cussed quite fully the present craze
in London for Kafiir mine speculation.
He corroborated the current stories
of the fabulous wealth made in develop
ing the mines in South Africa and de-
clared that only a beginning had been
made in uncovering the riches OF those
mines.
He believed that many of the com
panies organized for developing the
mining industry in South Africa and
West Australia Gere founded on unpro-
ductive properties and that a grand col
lapse would ultimately follow the boom
which they were now enjoying. But
there were many mines OF practically
unlimited productive resources.
Mr. Mayer said he represented pros
pective International company, whose
shares are being subscribed for by Lon
don and New Y ork bankers. The purpose
Of this company will be the purchase and
development of South African, Australian
and American mines, which, when found
profitable, will be transferred to subsi-
diary companies. whose stock will be
listed and sold on the American and Lon
don markets.
Mr. Mayer said the Rothschilds had
sent experts 20 South Africa who esti-
mated that the SO called Rand mine alone
contained e35O,OGO,000.

Wheat-Ths market opened weaker
and W asthe lowest OF the days session.
The price now shows a gain of 1G4c.
The government report which came out
last night raised the estimate on bushels
about % million but at the same time
condition was put at S5-7 per cent which
would materially reduce the total
weight. The cable advices have not
had much effect as they show but
little change in price. War rumors have
bsen freely quoted, clearances fair, ad-
vices from the spring wheat region show
great inquiry for cash wheat, and there
has been feeling all over the floor 10
day that wheat is going to do much bet
ter. The offerings have not been large
and the shorts, when they try to buy IN
wheat, find difficulty in deing SO.
Corn-This marEet started off weak
because of the semi bearisn government
crop report making a total harvest OF
2,40O,OO0,000. The price is certainly ab-
normally low, but to one who has pa-
tience the future should show good prof
lis if bought around present prices.

Preachers Didn't Pay.

This Is about an exceedingly genial,
middle-aged, suburban gentleman who
was driving a party of young people 10
the depot. They had spent the day
psrtaking Of his hospitalities. Jogging
along during a little interval Of silence,
all eyes spied straight ahead one Of
those long, awkward-lOoking poles that
span 50 many country roadways, slow
ly lifting its skeleton-like length tow
ard the SKY.
"Say, Mr.. -," observed one Of
the party, "don't they let good-iOOking
people through that gate free"
''Not quite" he laughed, good-natur-
edly; ''we'd all have to Ike preachers in
the bargain 20 get past that lynx-eyed
old fellow at the gate yonder; but

It's Just Like a Woman.

To scold about little troubles and be

To overestimlte their own beauty far

To faint at mice and spank tigers

To value baby above the world; or

To keep nine commandments more

To look at the most undeserving men
through the kindly spectacles of pity
To try independence, succeed in it,

To retain despite many bitter expe-

The wage earning population Of the

that the hand of toll, applied to her ma

ABOUT STORING ICE.
How to Bald an Iceh)Ise All How
and When to Fill it.

The simpiist kind Of a structure Will
keep ice. \ cheap board building
with cracks battened will answer the
purpose. For permanent house it is
wei TO build brick or stone founda-
ton and 70 bed the sillS in mortar.
The walls should BE- d)Ible and can be
made 50 by using ks lumber for stud
ding. Line both sides with paper and
board up tight, bat d. not fill in Let
the roof prOjec; on all sii.s or bIild
under the shade of tree or on the
north side of larger structure. Al
ways leave plenty of ventilation ut the
gable ends. Have a drain at the bot
tom extending out considerable dist
ance. Cover the mouth OF this drain
in the house with wire screen and
thea eov.r the whole bottom with a
layer Of sawlIst foot thick.
The keeping Of Ice depends quite as
much on the packing A. on the house
in which il il stD:,L StylIs. or dry
tan bark furnishes the best packing
material. The next best j. chaff OF cut
straw and after these uncIt straw.
In structure such as we have de
scribed ten Inches of slwdust on the
sides is sufficient or l. or - inches of
cut straw. Do not pat thick layer of
sawdust on top Of the ice-six or eight
inches is enough.
Fill the house in freezing weather
only for the best results. Have the
cakes as nearly uniform in size rs pos
sible AMI pIcl closely, filling cracks
with pounded ice to make the mass rs
solid as possible. The advice is often
given to pour water on after filling, but
the Farm Journal says this is unwise
advice, 80 don't do it, Forty cubic feet
of ice will make about a ton. The size
of the house wanted can be figured on
this basis.

threat of the loss of one subscriber, or

truth as it sees il. Ny friend, this is a
