On the Best 7 erms Offere
by any Company.

We are prepared to make loans on
improved farms for term of ten years,
with interest payable annually. We
will give the borroWerer the privilege
of making payment of as much as
one-tifth of the principal at any time
each year, thereby stopping the inter-
est on the amount paid. By this
method the borrower is enabled to gay
off the full amount of the loan in i've
years. The privilege to pay one-ifth
each year is optional with the borrow
er. He can, if he chooses, keep the
loan for the full time. No extra charge
for this privilege. which enables the
farmer to be out Of debt in five years if
he chooses. Should the borrower con-
clude to pay only one-tenth of his loan
each year, he would then be out of
debt at the end Of ten years. AS most
borrowers pay the agent commission
for their loans, it is very easy to see
the advantage of the above plan. It
enables the farmer to save che expens-
es of making a new loaE. every three
or five years. Our mortgages have no
gold clause.
If you want a loaa, investigate our
plan before going elsewhere. Address

BREAKS RECORD FOR NAVY.
Speed of 3O.S Knots Attained by the
New Torpedo boat De-
stroyer Bailey.

In a squirt of about two minutes du.
ration the other. day at Newport in a
government test for the standardiza-
tion of its propellers, the torpedo boat
destroyer Bailey made rate of speed
of 80 $40 knots. This is higher rate
than any vessel of the United States
navy has yet reached. The Bailey is
built to make but 30 knots. 1t is not
believed or expected that the Bailey
can maintain the record speed for any
length Of time, but the test showed how
swife descent upon an enemy the boat
could make in actual war. The engines
worked with remarkable smoothness
and evenness and the board of naval
officers conducting the trial were sur
prised that the vibration of the craft
was hardly noticeable.

STEPS ARE CRUMBLING.
Cheap Material Used in Those Lead
ing to the Capitol Building at
Washington,

Considerable criticism is heard
about the cheap material used in con-
structing the stone stairways at the
western approach to the capitol build
ing at Washington. Although this
work has been completed only a com
paratively short time it rapidly is fall
ing into decay and there are many
unsightly spots ON the landings at the
west front of the building.
Not only is the stone which was
used of an extremely perishable ma
ture, many thin layers having peeled
off, leaving unsightly holes about an
inch deep and several feet in diameter,
but the mortar used has disappeared
entirely in several places and some
of the steps are quite loose and work.
ing out of position. 1t soon will be
necessary to do some of the work
over again and take out many of the
large blocks of stone and replace them
with new ones.
1t is not known who is responsible
for the condition of affairs, but it can
not be denied the work is of the
cheapest character and not at all in
keeping with the magnificent struc-
ture to which these stairways lead.

USES SAIL ON DRY LAND.
High wind Enables "A Chicago Roy to
Navigate South Park In
Queer Style.

The driveways of South park, in Chi.
cago, were sailed the other day by Gar.
ner Hubbell, small boy, who took in
genious advantage of the gale of south
wind which blew all day long. Master
Hubbell is ~ years old, the son of /. c.
Hubbell, who lives at 5733 Monroe av.
enue. The lad rugged up a triangular
sail and fastened it TO mast erected on
his small express wagon. At first he
tried a small sail, counting on the wind
to make up for what he lacked in can
vas. But in the afternoon he made a
sail about ten feet high. BY means of
this he could navigate the sidewalks on
the avenues, riding north and steering
his sail wagon with ropes attached to
the forward axle tree. 1t was necessary
for him to haul his wagon when going
south, but that was like walking up hill
for a slide, though easier, and the nav.
igator did not mind it.

ROOSEVELT is TREED
Gray Wolves Prove Too Much for
the Intrepid Hunter.
His Eager scent for Ria Game Leads
Him Into n Predicament That Is
Both Thrilling aud Ridic-
ulOus.

According to a messenger who came
in to Meeker, Col, a day or two ago.
Col. Roosevelt's. chair was vacant the
other night when the hunters at the
Keystone ranch gathered for supper
No anxiety was felt at first, as he had
told the others when he left the cabin
for solitary stroll just before dusk not
to wait for him in case he was not back
by supper time. But at nine o'clock
Col. Roosevelt had not returned and his
friends became alarmed. At ten o'clock
they were convinced that he was the
victim of some accident and men and
dogs started to find him.
1t seems that in the gathering dark
ness Col. Roosevelt saw the shaggy
form of gray wolf outlined against
the sky on a ridge fully 300 yards away.
1t was too dark for accurate aim, but
the bullet from his rife wounded the
beast and sent him limping and yelling
over the brow of the hill. Col. Roose-
velt followed on the run. He found the
tracks of the animal, showing that its
leg had been broken. a light snow had
fallen the night before and the blood
stained footprints were easily traced.
The hunter was already far from
home and in the excitement of the
chase had lost his direction. However,
he had no thought of danger until he
noticed that the yelping of the wound
ed wolf was answered by others. These
gray wolves are twice as large as
coyotes and dangerous when in num-
bers. Col. Roosevelt kept away from
the thickets and brought down several
of the brutes when they came too near.
Finally it became too dark for any
thing but haphazard shooting, and, as
the country seemed alive with wolves,
Col. Roosevelt climbed a tree. In
doing so he lost his cartridge belt.
There the party found him after he
had been prisoner for four hours.
Under the tree were a half-dozen
wolves that he had killed with his re-
volvers. The others were soon scat
tered by the dogs.

GET BIG GAME PRESERVE.
Mayor Harrison ard other Chicago
Men buy Tract of Indiana
Marshes.

Carter II. Harrison, mayor of Chi
cago, and party of so representative
men of that city, including Charles
S. Dennis, Hampstead Washburne,
Rollo Organ and William Haskell,
have closed a deal with Brown Bros,
of this city, writes the Crown Point
Qnd.) correspondent of the Chicago
Inter Ocean, in which they come into
control of 10000 acres of marsh land
on the Kankakee river, south of
Crown Point, which they will use as
game preserve, which will be the
largest in the United States.
They have leased the big morass
for term of rs years, and will at
once commence the erection of cost
ly clubhouse and stock the marsh
with all kinds of game, besides the
duck and geese which habitate the
place each spring and fall. This deal
practically places the duck-hunting
in this well-known game marsh in a
trust and is absolutely controlled by
Chicagoans, the residents of Indiana
having been frozen out entirely, as
the land along the Kankakee river has
all been leased.
The Macsawba club ground COM
mences south of South Bend. the Eng
lish Lake Gun club then follows for
miles and the Diana club and the new
one just formed takes up the balance
of the land and in each case no
poachers are allowed in the Calumet
marsh. The Tolleston club. of Chi
cago, has a monopoly on that terri
tory. An effort is being made
throughout the state to legislate the
nonresident hunters out of the state.

OUR LUMBER TRADE.
Has within Recent yenre fncrensed
20 Immense Proportions, Tcrpe-
cially Our Foreign Trade.

1.-THE Lumber Trade OF the United
States" is the title.of Il monograph Just
issued by the treasury bureau Of sta
tistics. The lumber industry and
trade, it finds, has within quite recent
years changed from a small scale of
production to one in which machinery,
large outlay of capital and FAR
sighted policy of Development Of prop
critics are becoming controlling factors.
This change is due partly to the growth
of domestic demand and partly to the
fear of prematurely exhausting our
timber resources. The existence of
surplus capital looking for new fields
of investment has had tendency TO
eliminate the small-scale lumberman;
and the policy of European states in
rigidly limiting the annual cut of lum.
ber to something like the rate of in
crease in the growth of forest has
forced European lumber-consumine
interests to come to the United States
and Canada, especially for hard woods
and lumber for building purposes AS
a result, the foreign lumber trade OF
the United States has grown enormous.
ly. Within quite recent years it has de-
veloped from a local to world wide
commercial movement.
In the foreign trade, the Atlantic
ports, the gulf ports and those on the
Northern Pacific coast have shared
most literally. More lumber is now be.
ing shipped from these ports and from
the country as a whole than at any
previous time in the history of the
country. The total exports of timber
lumber and manufactured wood for
the fiscal year ended June 30, 1900
amounted to $5O,59s,416 Imports of
corresponding products, however
amounted to 500, ,591 ,90S, showing a bal.
ance of almost exactly O,0O0,O 900 OF
exports of this class over imports.
About half of these imports come from
Canada. consisting mainly of planks,
boards, logs and shingles as the -four
principal items. Another principal fea.
ture in our timber imports is the tropi.
cal timber, including Cuban mahogany
and cedar, Mexican mahogany and
cedar, and mahogany from Central and
South America and Africa.
