volve the task Of assessing the
railroads and other corporations Of

upon local patronage for support

broom is a better article and is
sold for less money than the for

sold Eve dozen brooms to the mer-

up. He took orders in Trinidad

A WRITER in the Beaver City
Tribune makes a few remarks
about keeping business at home
and the way to do il. The text is
furnished by the postmaster Of a
little town in Nebrsska-one with
less than 500 inhabitants--who
says that the money order business
at his Office for two Chicago mail
order houses runs close up to
$1,000 year. One thousand dol
lars from one little Nebraska town.
Think Of what an immense amount
Of money is ann ially sent out from
the whole state; money that ought
to be kept at home. and would be
kept at home il the home mer-
chants would get the hustle on
them that wins trade for the man
in the big city. II isn't SO much
the prices made by the city man,
or the quality Of his goods that
wins trade for him. 1t is his con-
slant hammering away on the anvil

GREAT business successes are
built upon two things: One is the
making OF what people want, to be
supplied at tair prices; the other
is to let people know about what
is offered. The last is just as es-

they Have Had Their Day on the Plains

Passengers on the @" system who
have ridden the better part Of q day
through western Nebraska and east
ern Colorado will remember the prairie
dog. He is numerous In that section
Of the country. He lives In villages
and the villages are as close together
as the villages Of certain parts of Eur

the prairie dog has had his day. The
agricultural department says he must

philanthropy is Of the type which
seeks to make two blades of grass grow
instead of one. Therefore he proposes
to relegate the prairie dog to the pic

Two Horses from Queen.

The queen herself has on two occa.
sions at least, been called upon to pay
horseshoe rent quittance" similar to
that which the city corporation rem
ders to the Crown each year. Oakham,
in Rutland, posses a unique and Pc
culiar privilege, by virtue Of which
any peer Of the realm passing within
the precincts Of the manor has to pay
tribute in the form of a horseshoe,
and If he refuses he is obliged to give
money, which the bailiff is empowered
to take by force. Strictly speaking,
the shoe should come from one of his
own horses, but the alternative OF
payment In hard cash is usually chos-
en-, the money being devoted to pur-
chasing ornamental horseshoes to
decorate the castle walls. Many OF
these articles, including two from
her majesty, given when she visited
the county, first as Princess Victoria
and again some f1ve-and-twenty years
ago, and one apiece from Queen Eliza
beth and George IV.-London Tele-

SCRAMBLE FOR DIAMONDS,
Gems Thrown Away by an Absent
Minded Dealer. q

Minded Dealer. d
Have you got any Of those dia-
monds?" is the question Of the hour
in Birmingham. Some 500 precious
stones have been shared out by lucky
prospectors in Vittoria street, and the
search still continues, says the London
Express. It happened in this wise:
In a fit Of abstraction John Davis,
member of a firm Of diamond mer-
chants, while walking down Vittorla
street an a recent morning, pulled an
old envelope out Of his pocket and
commenced to tear it up. When he
reached the last section the terrible
fact dawned upon him that it was the
envelope in which were some 1900
small diamonds, valued at &100, and
that he had been sowing these broad
cast over public thoroughfare. The
news spread with lightning-like rapid
ity. Shopkeepers locked up and came
to the more lucrative occupation Of
picking up diamonds, while for mile
around an errand boy at his ordinary
work was a phenomenon. Such a
scraping of the street with knives and
sticks had never been seen. AS it
happened, most Of the lost stones went
down the cellar gratings of a jewelers.
shop. Ingenious youths fished for
them with a piece Of soap attached to
a stick and reeled in three prizes at
time. Others sat In the gutter sort
ing an anxiously guarded handful of
dirt. Still the crowd grew. At one
period over 1900 lads were to be seen
hard at work. From noon to seven
o'clock the street was nearly blocked.
When night fell candles, lamps and
lanterns were brought to aid the indie
fatigable hunters for treasure trove,
and the scene presented could only
have been done justice by Hogarth.
About half the diamonds have found
their way back to their rightful owner.
Some were sold to shopkeeper and
the rest, like the graves of a house
hold, are scattered far and wide. Dia-
mond pins will shortly be fashionable
