MAKE "RUM,IAGE sALE'AA A SUCCESS.
The arrangements for the "Rummage
Sale" to be held in the room lately occu-
pied by J. b. Mckay, on Main street, the
24th and 25th Of May, under the auspices
of the ladies of the "Carnation Club"
for the benefit Of the Reading Room,
are progressing, and, as was anticipated,
people are taking lively interest in the
scheme. The managers have been for
tunate in securing a good location for
the purpose, and, through the generosity
OF the owner, entirely free of charge. In
addition to the articles already asked
for, donations of vegetables, dried and
canned fruits, jellies and pickles, cakes
and candy will be acceptable. Already
the question Is heard on every side, "Can
l send this or that article to the sale?"
The answer is the same to all: Bring
anything and everything, big or little.
These sales are immensely popular every
where; everybody gives and everybody
buys, for at "Rummage Sale" there are
bargains like to none upon the earth. So
rummage your attics, closets and dra xers
and take out part at least Of the use
less articles and send them to the store
formerly occupied by j. b. Mckay, on
Main street, Thursday, May 90. Central
City never does anything by halves, and
with the worthy object in view for which
this sale is instituted the management
feel confident of large donations and
generous patronage.

MUST POOL THEIR INTERESTS.

The Rocky Mountain News OF May
states that the three ore buying con-
Germs in Denver, w. j. Chamberlain Il
Co., Baily e. Monnig and The Denver
Sampling and Smelling company, are
beginning to feel the effects OF the smell
ter trust. The smelter people have or
dered them to get together and two Of
the firms retire from business at this
point, it being the intention to have but
one ore buying concern in each of the
larger camps OF the state. 1t is reported
that the smelter people have informed
them that il they do not reach an under
standing or pool their interests into one
concern, then the smelter trust will es-
tablish its own ore buyer at that point
as well as the other places in this state.

COURT TURNS A MISER DOWN.

The circuit court of appeals at st.
Louis has just rendered a decision that
promises to establish precedent for a
tremendous number of accident mining
cases, says Sundays Denver Post. BY
reason Of the decision John Morgan, with
his sight practically gone, with his left
coat sieve hanging empty and his right
arm stiff, unfit for manual labor. will
have to hobble along through the rest OF
his life as best he may. The court de-
crees that his employers are not liable
for his injuries. Three years ago Morgan
was working in the Cook mine at Cen.
tral City. A premature blast injured
him. He got 5000 of the S3SO00 for
which he sued; his employers appealed,
and even the 5000 has now been taken
away.

EXPORTS TO JAPAN
REMARKABLE INCREASE IN TRADE OF

Washington. July IS (SpeciaD.-The remarkable
growth in the exports of the United States

holds in supplying The imports of that Industrious
prosperous and rapidly developing nation. is shown
by figures just compiled by the Japanese statis-
tical report entitled Annual Return OF the For
eign Trade of the Empire of Japan presenting
the details of the imports and exports of Japan
the calendar year 1t shows that the imports
from the United States have grown from 100000
yen in 1898 to over 6OOcoooO yen in 1900. and that
the United States which stood sixth in rank in the
list of countries from which Japan drew her I'M
ports in 1885, is second in the list, being only
exceeded by Britain In 1888 the imports into
Japan from Great Britain valued at q s.62S

India, S67s.029 yen: from Hong-kong. s.26S.0n yen

gIum 1sis 25s yen. In 1898 the United States sup
piled per cent. Germany per cent and the United
Kingdom 80 per cent of the total imports into
Japan: In 1900 the United States supplied Il per
cent Germany 10 per cent and the United Kingdom
% per cent Going still further back. it may be
said that in 1881 the United States supplied per
cent and the United Kingdom 50 per cent of Japans
imports
The enormous increase in our exports 10 Japan
since 1898 is distributed among large number of
articles. The japanese figures show that imports
of sole leather from the United States have IN
creased from 1SS67 yen in 1898 to T2s62 yen in lO
leather other than sole. from 4Ol4 yen in 1888 TO
1s SIS yen in 1900; nails from 2Ooi to i22 $50
yen; iron pipes, from 20.i14 yen to 1240O2o yen;
parafne wax. from 1851 to 40 SIS yen timber
from 1911 ven to 363. s29 yen; electric light ma
chinery from SO. 253 yen 4S.215 yen In a large
number of the import list of 1888 makes no
mention of certain articles imported from the United
States which In 1900 show large impOrtations. The
fact however. that the list of enumerated articles
has been extended since the adoption OF Japan's $
new tariff suggests that general comparison OF
Japans purchases from the United States in 1900
compared with 1898 better be made from the
export figures OF the United States. These show
the value of the principal exports from the United
States to Japan in the fiscal 1898 and 1860
