reviewers, and covering Wells, told him
to turn to the right, and drive on, as he
was their prisoner.
"Well, now," said Wells, that's pretty
cool; guess you're joking, boys
mary a joke, Yank, yer jes' gee them

'em a movin', as yer got about five miles
to go yet before yer get to our camp"
Here. Bill, take the Yank's gun and fire
the load out, as he might accidentally
shoot himself going over the rough road
said the leader of the party.
Wells was fully convinced by this time
that he had been trapped, and felt pretty
blue, as it was we'll known that when any
of 'Sherman's bummers" fell into the
hands Of the rebels it was good piece of
luck il they got away alive.
This depended largely upon the class
of men who captured them. Those who
belonged to no particular command, but
roamed about the country in small bands
at will. and owed allegiance to no superior
were the worst. They had been known
TO cut the throats of the unfortunate men
who fell into their hands, leaving the
bodies where they fell, with a card PIN
ned to their clothes with these words:
This is the way we serve all foragerS." ="
When captured by the regular Confed-
crate soldiers, however, the treatment was
that of any other prisoner. 1t was Weiss
good luck that he fell into the hands of
the latter, for beyond searching him and
taking away his forage and every thing

We Drink Half the worlds Coffee.

One-haff of the worlds production Of
coffee berries is brought to the United
States. Americans are the greatest cof-
fee drinkers on the face of the globe now,
and every year the consumption of coffee
is increasing here.
Last year it was more than 800 ,000,-
900 pounds for the whole country, or more
than 10 12 pounds head for the pop
ulation. Germany and France together
only consumed half as much coffee, Ger
many less than six and one-fourth pounds
head and France only four and one-half
pounds per capita. The United Kingdom
used a little more than half a pound of
the berries per head of the population,
but over there they made up for it by
drinking more tea than any other nation.
More than a million dollars is sent out
of the United States every week in pay
ment for coffee. South and Central
American countries, which supply US with
more than 600,O00,000 pounds of coffee
year, get most of the money. Porto Rico,
Java, and the Philippines get almost all
the rest, but little goes to Hawaii, where
they produce a very superior brand Of
coffee berry.
Last year the total value of the coffee
imported into the United States was about
S60,000,000, and that was less than for
several years, because the import price Of
coffee has fallen about one-half.

Wells did not follow his newly-found

Beware the Deadly Boom. &"

In the opinion of Mr.. Alexander FL.
Rever, writer in the Saturday Evening
Post, undue speculation in real estate
options is the inyariable precursor of the
financial panic. The man who takes his
cue from real estate speculatiOns and be-
gins to husband his resources and pre-
pare for storm when he sees this fea-
ture of business actually reaching beyond
the limits of sound, permanent invest
ment will generally be in time to escape
the crash. If he waits for the beginning
of the drop in this form of security he
may depend upon being caught in the
wreck.

Agriculture in Different Countries.

The United States furnish about two
thirds of the worlds supply of cotton.
The area given up to cotton is $4,000, 900
acres, while India, which holds the second
place, devOtes only S,JO0000 acres to this
culture. Australia takes the lead in wool
production; its fiocks comprise more than
100, 100000 head. India produces the
most rice: France and Germany about
the same quantity of hops. British India
devOtes about twice as much area to the
culture of tobacco as the United States,
where 100000 acres are given over to this
crop. Italian vineyards cover about
100000 acres; France devotes 1000
900 acres to vines; Austro- Hungary about
100000. Russia furnishes the major pOr-
ton of the worlds fax and barley. Ger
many produces the most potatoes, but
Russia approaches closely to Germany in
the area given to potato culture.
Italy gives So per cent. Of its total area
to wheat, and France AZ per cent, but
neither of these countries is increasing the
area of wheat culture. On our side of the
Atlantic Canada and the Argentine Re
public are rapidly increasing the wheat
sown regions and the United States de-
vote no less than 45,000,000 acres to this
crop, and is, of course, the leading pro-
ducer Of maize, or Indian corn. In 1899
there were about 19O,000,000 acres de-
voted to this crop.
Since 1870 the population Of the United
States has doubled; the area devoted to
corn culture has more than doubled; the
wheat area has almost tripled; the cotton
area has increased two and One-half
times. Foreign markets now absorb Go
per cent. of our cotton, 33 per cent. Of our
wheat, 8 per cent. of our maize. In 1870
the United States possessed 661 horned
cattle per 1000 inhabitants; in 1885. S29:
in 1899, GOA per 1000. In 1870 we had
/ ,060 sheep per 1000 inhabitants; in 1885,

Consolidation of Two Phoenix Com
 mercial Establishments.

A notable business consolidation has been decided upon by two of the lead ing mercantile establishments of this city. On or about January ] the 1i. Heyman Furniture company and tho Doris Bros. Furniture company will be amalgamated under the firm name O. the Doris s-Heyman Furniture com pany. corporation being formed for the purpose of carrying on the business with a capital stock of s100, GOO.
 The storeroom of the new firm will be the building now occupied by the Doris Bros. Furniture company and which was erected expressly for this line of business but a short time ago. The building Is 75x1371s feet in size and has practically three floors, as the basement is fitted up as handsomely as any part of the building and is reached by broad stairways around the central rotunda. The building is all occupied by the Doris Bros. except 5Ox137H feet on one floor. When the consolidation takes place other improvements will be made in the storeroom and it will be used entirely as a sa1esroom, all reserve stock being kept in warehouses. prin- cipal of which will be the Heyman warehouse east of the NJ. & P. depot, Both stores are now we'll filled with goods and with the stocks combined the single store will be densely packed, and that without duplication.
 The object of the consolidation is 70 reduce expenses and at the same time increase sales. as the new firm will be better prepared to handle both the wholesale and retail trade. They expect to handle all goods in carload lots. which will enable them to make to GUS toners the most satisfactory prices. The firm will pay particular attention to wholesale business, believing tn lt hoeniX is soon to be 9 railroad center and therefore the best distributing point in this part of the country.
 The B. Heyman Furniture company has been in business here about eighteen years and the Doris Bros. about fourteen years and both houses have grown to be the two largest in the territory in their line of business. Con- solidated. the new firm will probably carry the largest furniture stock in th> country in proportion to the size of the city, and the establishment will be one the city may well be proud of. Until ,--e first of the year, however. the two esta ablishments will retain their indi- viduality. as the consolidation will not be effected till that time.
