Look Here, Children!

We are going to quit bothering with corn bread, bacon and
beans till after Christmas and devote our time to gathering up
something to please the children.
AS we are headquarters for candy all the year round, of
course We'll have it by the cart load during Christmas times,
and we will have more doll babies and toys than a mule can
pull down hill ca ice, and prices will be within the reach OF all.
And now, old folks, if you want to please the children and
make them think that sure enough Santa Claus had come down
the chimney, you will miss it if you fail to come to our store.

Gen. Knox Camps on b Trail of the
BOer Commander.

Knox Camp ON the Tra11 OF inc
BOer Commander.
London, Dec. 8. A dispatch from
Aliwalnorth, Cape Colony, says Gen.
Dewet's main force is hard pressed by
Gen. Knox, and that men appear to
be suffering from continual trekking.
After the fight at Sterkespruit Gen.
Dewet doubled south during the night,
crossed the Caledon river, marched to
Odendaldrift, where he found the
stream impossible, turned. east n
marched along the north bank OF the
Orange river until within fifteen miles
Of Aliwalnorth, and then turned north
east in the direction of Rockville. Gen.
Knox logged his steps the whole day.
Qewet's forces were thoroughly ex-
hausted. Three hundred Of their dead
and dying horses were counted be-
tween thesSmithville road and the Or
ange river. All the British prisoners
taken at Dewetsdorp, with the excep-
ton of the officers, have been released.
It is stated that the Beers suffered
heavily in the attack on the British
convoy that was proceeding from Pre-
toria to Rustenburg. Their usual
ties are estimated al 100.
Mr.. Kruger has abandoned all the
proposed journeys to other capitals,

In the "banqueting hall of the city
chambers at Glasgow a celebrated
painter has just completed a panel In
Mural decorating" giving the sup
posed origin of the legend. The paint
ing represents the banks of the Clyde,
with fishermen and their nets, Saint
Mungo taking a ring from a salmon's
mouth, with the queen and her ladies
looking on. The origin Of the legend
is as follows: Langvorth, queen OF
Strathclyde, lost a ring given to her by
her husband, King Mederech, and he
threatened to take her life for her
carelessness. The queen asked Saint
Mungo for help, and he ordered a fish,
erman to cast his net into the Clyde.
The fisherman did as he was ordered,
and brought up a salmon with a ring
in his mouth. Then the king and the
queen lived happily ever after.

Broomhall says that reports from
Argentina are becoming ore positive
each day that the wheat crop is not
doing well. There has, no doubt, been
q danger this season in observers reck-
oning upon a repetition Of the remark
able yield Of December, 1898. The yield
per acre in Argentina in 1898 must
have been phenomenal indeed, for,
had not storms Of wind and rain de-
stroyed 800, 900 tons after harvest, the
total available for expectation during
1899 would have been about II, 900, 900
quarters and the total crop about 49,
100000 quarters, which, being grown
on an area Of 500, 900 acres, indicates
q yield Of % bushels per acre. This
figure may not be reached again for
years to come, and consequently, al
though the acreage is now in the
neighborhood Of 5000, 900, 1t Is quite
on the cards that the total outturp
may fall to / ,000. 900 quarters.

WALL GIVES AWAY.
Three ThOusand Bushels OF Grain
Scattered ON the Ice.

Thousand Bushels of Grain
Scattered on the Ice.
Duluth, Mimi, Dec. 9.-There was q
bad caving-in Of one of the walls Of
the new Peavey annex on Rice's point.
The annex is composed of fifteen bins
Of concrete construction. They are 80
feet in height and 80 feet in diameter
and hold about $4,000 bushels of wheat.
One of the intermediate spaces was
filled with grain to within about five
feet Of the top. Evidently there was
some defect in the wall, for it gave
way at a point some distance down
from the top. This mass in falling
struck the opposite wall of the bin
and plugged a hole in it, and through
this some of the concrete debris and
about 5000 bushels of grain poured out
on the ice.

"A Massachusetts physician recently
gave an amusing Illustration Of the
dread some people have Of fresh air
in their sleeping-rooms. In the west
ern part Of the state a few years ago
lived a family who rel accustomed
to keep doors and windows all tightly
closed. The head of the house was a
carpenter, and one fall undertook to
remodel a part Of his dwelling. The
task was not completed when winter
set in, and the family, to their horror,
had to endure an amount Of fresh air
that filed them with alarm. The wife.
speaking about it, afterward, said she
didn't know how they could have
stood it If 1t hadn't happened that they
were all in better health than usual"

A Simla correspondent says that the

great decrease is far less than was ex-

NEW WARSHlPS
INVOLVES a BIG ADDITION TO THE

Long Opens Bids for the
Construction OF Five B~attleshlp>

the Expenditure Of About $780,
o0o,oooeAl the Bids Within the
Limit. Fixed by the Appr6prla-
tton-New Bidders Take q Hand
Awards Will BE Made Later. N.

Washington, Dec. S.-Nevers since the.
birth Of the new navy has there been
such a gathering Of shipbuilders inc
metal kings as were assembled in the
office of the secretary of the navy at
noon yesterday to witness the opening
of bids for an amount of naval con-
.struction which Secretary Long de-
nominated as the greatest industry
this or any other country had ever
seen, involving the placing; OF con-
tracts to the amount Of about $50.00o.-
600. There were eight bidders for the
construction of the five 'battleships inc
six armored cruisers. All the bids
were within the limit of cost figured I
by the appropriation. The indications
on the face of the bids are that
The Successful Biddcra
for one or more vessels will be the
Newport News company, the Cramps
the Fore River Works of MassachCF
sets, the Union Iron Works of San
Francisco, and perhaps Moran Bros.
e. Co. OF Seattle, Wash. The notable
feature was the attempt on the part
of the younger and smaller concerns
to break the line of the ones which
have constructed nearly all of the new
navy up to this time. While it is not
possible at this moment to forecast
results accurately, there are indica-
lions that in at least n instance,
and perhaps two instances, the at
tempts will be attended with
Some Degree of Success,
for it looks as if some of the work will
be bestowed upon the Fore River COM
pany, which appears for the first time
as a bidder Tor the construction, Of
armored ships. The Pacific coast, too.
presents a likely candidate in the
shape of the Moran Bros. & Co.'S bid.
Because of the specifications it is not
possible to tell yet which bids are
actually the lowest. A naval board
will consider the bids and report upon
them. The act of congress limits the
cost of cruisers to $500. 900 each, and
of the battleships to 81 $50. 600 for the
sheathed and 100000 0 for the un-
sheathed.

She made a great reputation as a real
estate agent, and it was through her
efforts that millions of dollars worth
of property changed hands here. Her
speculations made her very wealthy,
but 1t was all in paper, and as soon
as the, bottom dropped out of the boom
she was reduced to very moderate
circumstances.

Timber Belt to he Opened.

Osceola. Wis.,, Dec. 11.-One of the
largest enterprises in the lumber
world will be established in the little
village Of Clam Falls, in the northeast
part of this county in the near future.
Capitalists from Chicago have already
bought large tracts of fine oak timber
in a belt that has never been touched
by the woodman's axe, and will cut
5000, 900 feet Of logs this winter. They
will erect m of the best equipped
sawrnills in the country. A large belt
of fine oak timber lies in that region
enough to last the mill for ten years
and the only drawback is the lack OF
railroad facilities, but it is believed
from this venture that a road will be
built next year. '.
