near the town of Huacho, reports the Chi
cago Herald, is one OF the great curiosities
OF nature-a salt factory on an automatic
plan. When the tide comes in 1t fills a lot
OF shallow basins, and the water is pre-
vented from flowing back into the sea by
closing the gates. The atmosphere is so dry
that the water ewaporates rapidly and leaves
@ edime Of salt in an almost pure state,
which is scraped up, packed into sacks and
shipped to market. Within the coast q lit
tie farther the percolation of sea watex
through the porous rock into pits and hol-
lows has caused immense deposits OF salt
to accumulate. The salt is taken out in
that form. AS socn as the salt is excavated
the water comes In again and in a year or
two has solicited and is ready for the mar
ket. Wells driven into the sand disclose
strongly dmpregnated water at a depth of
twenty-five feet, which seems to be a great
deal heavier than the sea water and is

FATAL AGE OF ruInrY-sEvpv.
MANY Men who Have Died when they
Reached that Anc.

The acc OF 81 is a particularly fatal age.
An examination OF tho records OF the United
states government, says the Toledo Blade,
elbows that more people die az that age than
any other after attaining their majority. II
is also ascertainei that more mistortunes
overtake persons at that age than at any
other time in their lives and that few for
tunate events befall them.
An examination Of history develops the
Same thing. At the age OF 81 a great sor.
row befell Aristotle, the death Of Plato, his
friend and teacher, with whom he had
studied for nearly twenty years. This sor-
row plainly showed its effects upon his
future life and to sc may be attributed the
sad tone OF his later writings.
1t was at the ago OF 81 that Lord Byron
died of fever at Greece. AS Lord Beacone-
field says, he was greater az a man than
as a writer, and his loss TO the world was a
greet blow to It,"
Raphael, the glory OF Italian art, died at
81. He fell sick a week before his birthday
Of cold and fever and died on that day, Good
greatest artists.
In music, like art and poetry. England
lost her greatest composer at the age OF 81.
Purcell. the most distinguished musician
Britain produced, died within a few days
after attaining his thirty-seventh year. This
regard in which he was held in England
placed him on a par with Milton in epic
poetry, with Shakespeare on the stage,
Locke in metaphysics and Sir Isaac New
ton in philosophy and mathematics.
1t was at the age of 81. too, that England
lost a military genius that she regarded or
the highest rank and promise. Prince Henry
of Battenburg, who died of fever in Ashantee
In that year OF his life.
PASCAL, too. died at 81, but why seek mors
Illustrations? These are sufficient to illus
trate the fatality of the age among geniuses.
Where death failed misfortune often be-
fell.
So tie age Of 81 may be regarded as the
fatal age OF all those after a man passes his
majority.

The market opened just about steady with

will be noted that the average of all the

The hog market has had it's ups and downs
this week, but there have been more ups
han downs, SO that there has been q sub
~stantial gain In values for the week. More
over, the market on the whole has averaged
higher than last week and to that extent at

SHEEP-Recepts Of sheep today were
light and the market not materially changed

SitEEP-ReCepts or sneep To-Day were
light and the market not materially changed
from yesterday.
The receipts of sheep and lambs for the
week were quite large and during the hrst
half of the week the market was In. any
thing but a satisfactory condition. Values
were not only weak, but the demand
seemed to be lacking in snap and the trade
was a drag. During the latter half of the
week the market seemed to brace up and
take on new life, SO, that II was entirely
satisfactory to the sellers. Values on lambs
especially strengthened up and the week
closed with the market In pretty good
shape.
stocker and feeder sheep and lambs have
been In good demand all the week and the
supply of that kind of stun Is none too
iaTge. Ihere are apparently a good many
farmers in this section of the country WHO
have made up their minds TO substitute
sheep for cattle In the feed lots and orders
stuff.
