Rubber Is Scarce.

The popularity Of bicycling has Gre
ated "A great demand for rubber and a s
a consequence the commodity is becom-
ing scarce, and the need of economy in
its use is Imperative. 1t may not be
generally known that the india rubber
dolls, animals and other toys used by
children in many cases began their
commercial existence in the form of
bicycle tires. All our india rubber toys
come from Germany, and several enter
prisinS English shippers have found
that the shipment of old. worn-out tires
to the German factories is very profit
able business. During the past two
years tons Of old rubber, that used
formerly to be thrown away or remade
into cheap door mats, have been
shipped to Germany and sent back
transformed into ella borate and gaudy
squeaking dolls, elephants and other
toys.
Though rubber is used for a wider
variety of articles than any other ma
terial. more rubber was used last year
in the manufacture of bicycle tires
than for any other purpose and the de-
mand for rubber is now permanently
in excess of the supply. More than
100000 pairs of tires were made in Eng
land during the last season, and 1t is
impossible to make them of any but
the very best rubber.

Toronto. Ont. Aug. 2O.-Everybody
is in readiness for the Canadian cup
races. the first of which will be sailed
tomorrow on the Island course off
Toronto harbor. 1t will be over a tri-
angle of 81 miles. Both the Genesee and
Beaver, the challenger and defender,
respectively. have been measured. but
the judges have not given out the fig
ures. 1t is the general opinion how
ever, that both boats are in the 81
foot limit. Canadians are confident
that the Beaver will win in strong
winds. while the Americans are conf
dent of victory in any sort of weather.
Some bets have been made at to l
in the Genesees favor. but as all Of
fers at these figures have been quickly
taken up, the indications are that the
Beaver will be a favorite in the final
betting. A large fleet of visiting yachts
have put in an appearance here.

WONDERS OF SURGERY.
Some of the Things That Modern Skill
Can Do.
From the be-Democrat.

From the Globe Democrat.
A month or two ago a doctor was
called in to attend a boy whose ear
had been completely bitten off by a
vicious horse. The surgeon determined
to try and replace the ear, as failure
to do so could not result in a worse de-
formity.
The missing ear was duly found and
handed to the doctor, who was then en-
gagged in bathing the severed part in
warm water. He had neither instru
ments nor dressings with him, and as
the half hours delay to obtain them
would have been fatal to success, he
stitched the ear in place again with a
common needle and thread. This was
followed by antiseptic treatment, and in
six weeks the ear completely healed,
leaving no scars. Even had this been
a failure an ear made of a waXy COM
position and an exact fac smile of the
other ear, could have been made and
fixed.
In some cases it has been necessary
to remove the tongue, but by raising
the floor of the mouth and thus in some
way filing the place of the missing
organ, the patient has been able to
speak almost perfectly
The fitting of glass eyes Is well

months merchandise balance. Europe Is
not buying enough to cover its aeeumulat-
ing excess OF merchandise exports over i'm
ports
The most remarkable feature of the week
has been the decline of cents in wheat,
with only 5Re In corn and only sixteenth
In cotton. The government estimate for the
wheat crop, 675 900 900 bushels, has more in
fluence than any other from that source
for number of years, because 1t Is recog-
nized as the result of great efforts to get
at the truth, and is therefore considered
about the lowest estimate admissible.
A very strong market for cotton goods
has prevailed and prevents cotton from de-
clining. The advance in goods has been
unusual and has been sustained by heavy
buying, especially of print cloths and KIN
bred products. The prospect is that the
outgo will place dealers and manufacturers
in a stronger position than they have held
for years, with smaller stocks of goods UNI
sold.
"A better tone appears in the wooden goods
market also, with some important grades
wfrfcu were opened at a great reduction IN
prices recently advanced, which has slim
ulated the demand for all grades.
The iron industry is advancing prices OF
products rather than of materials. The
rush OF orders for the future does not cease
and the works are generally covered for
months ahead with orders for shipments
for street cars and for exports.

against the defendant. He shall forward
the bill of costs to the president of the
board Of inspectors of convicts, or the off,
Ger dscharging his duties, who shall care

rect, he shall request the auditor In writing
to draw his warrant upon the treasurer for

the convict fund. Provided, that no costs
shall be paid until the convict has been
delivered to the penitentiary officials, and,
where convict is sentenced in more than
one case, the costs in the preceding SEN
tences."
This statute was enacted after the adop-
ton of the code and is an alteration of the
law as 1t had existed in section 4570 of
the code insofar as that section required
execution against a penitentiary convict
and return thereon of no property as
condition precedent to the payment of
costs by the state. The later statute APP
plies whenever a defendant is convicted
and sentenced to the penitentiary,' wheth-
er he is solvent or insolvent and in view
of the peremptory direction therein given
that the proceedings for sucn collection of
costs shall be had presently after convic-
ton" there is no time allowed for the ex-
haustion of an execution, which under sec
ton 1859 of the code could not have been
returned within thirty days after it had
gone into the hands of the sheriff.

GOES TO CLOVER LEAF LINE

c. c, Skinner the master mechanic of the
Alabama Great Southern railroad, with
headquarters at this city, has been APP
pointed superintendent of motive power of
the Clover Leaf line, with headquarters in
Frankfort, Ind. This appointment goes
into effect Monday and Mr. Skinner leaves
tomorrow on the Alabama Great Southern,
No. 2, to assume his new duties.
Mr.. Skinner has been in Birmingham for
several years as master mechanic of the
Alabama Great Southern and in this posi-
ton he has proved himself to be one of the
best railroad men in the south. Under his
this road has been made one of the very
best in this part of the country, and that
his work has achieved for him more than
a local reputation, is borne out by his new
appointment. The Glover Leaf line is one
of the biggest and most important systems
of the many railroads north of the Ohio
river.
That his place on the Alabama Great
Southern will be filled with difficulty, goes
almost without saying. Superintendent
Wickersham said yesterday afternoon that
Mr.. SINNERS successor had not been APP
pointed yet, nor could he say exactly
when the appointment would be made; he
thought, however, that it would be done
within the next few days, especially as Mr..
Skinner is to leave 50 soon.

BEYOND PRECEDENTS.
Volume of Business in January Has
Been Great.

New York, February 3.-R G. Dun G. Co. 8
weekly review of trade will say tomorrow;
The volume of business in January has
been far beyond all precedent Exchanges
through clearing houses have been A per
cent. larger than last year and 59.7 per cent.
larger than in 1892 and While speculation in
stocks at New York materially increases
the volume of payments, it was larger out
side this city by S3.S-per cent. than in 1892.
1t is pertinent to note that the remarkable
expansion in the aggregate of business pay

great that the payments of $S2 900 00) would
cover about as much business payments as
that of $1G0 coo, 900 in 1892. 1t Is not strange
that European exchanges are disturbed and
alarmed, and a rise in sterling, even when
gold is being shipped this way, is one of
the interesting features. 1t is commonly

Sharpe, 1.-THE act of February 26, 1875.
which is embodied in section 3.41 of the
code provides that 1.-THE sheriff is author
lied to execute all mesne and final process
which is required of constables and shall
receive the same fees and compensation
therefor" It's purpose was to extend the
authority and duties of the sheriff to mat
tiers In which he had heretofore been with
out authority or duty. That section 3741
had no reference to the execution of war;
rants Of arrest appears from the considera-
tion that at the time of its enactment and
for a long time prior thereto the sheriff
had full authority to execute such war
rants and the statutes giving such au-
thority have been carried into each of the
codes thereafter adopted Code section
5000. By section 4576 of the code the consta-
bles fee for executing a warrant of arrest
is 80 cents and by section 4565 the sheriff's
fee for the like service is 50. But the
seeming conflict between these provisions
for fees disappears with the exclusion of
warrants of arrests from the operation of
section 3741. The case here under con-
sideration falls within the class mentioned
in the act of February IS, 1897 mote to Sec
ton 4511 of the code) and may therefore be
determined independently of other statutes
relating to such fees.
Section 1 of this last act provides that
whenever a defendant is convicted and
