EXPENSIVE LONDON LIFE.

Annual Income of 100000 Not suf-
fieient to Live Upon.
A London paper discussing the new
standard of wealth that has arisen in
recent years in England, remarks that
80 years ago an income of $4,000 was
accounted wealth sufficient to main
tain good place in society. Disraeli.
one of the keenest observers of society.
declared that an income of $40. 900 was
a veritable Aladdin's lamp, but wealth
now begins with an income of $1,000
yearly, which. if the. possessor lives up
to his position, does not leave him as
free from money cares as though he
were really rich.
The country house, hired shooting a
London house, wife and daughters
dresses, a moor in Scotland, and six
weeks yachting leave little free cash
and nothing for improvement. This
is true, assuming that in addition to
100000 year there is inherited the
plant of luxurious life, but in the
case Of a man starting in society with
an income of 500. 900 and no plant. he
is far poorer. Purchasing and INSTALL
ing himself in suitable town and conn
try houses must cost $3.50 900. reduc-
ing his free income to $4,000. AS he
approaches so years of age allowances
for. his sons pensions and other claims
will make a still further reduction. He
will be well fed and lodged, but will
worry regarding the position of his
children.

To My Many Friends-I am pleased
to make report to you of the pleasant
visit my wife and l had in Western
Canada.
We visited the territories of AL
berta, Assiniboia, and Saskatchewan,
and found them far surprising our i'm
sginatiou, but little did l expect to
find such rich, loamy soil, so much
of it, and so uniform in its level prai-
rie lay. | do think the soil of Canada
as a rule equals if not excels the fin
est prairie farm lands of Indiana.
These lands are immense in their
richness. and when once the sod is rot
ted and pulverized. 1t is as pliable and
AS easily cultivated as Indiana sandy
soil
Western Canada, from my point of
view, offers as fine opportunities for
mixed farming as any place in my
knowledge. The long, sunshiny days,
together with the rich soil, produce
very fine wheat, oats, barley, fax and
other cereal products. There is scarce
" any attempt to raise corn. except
carly varieties for table use. The sea-
con is too short to depend upon ma
,uring field corn. From the stand
noint of getting this land ready for
.be plow. must say that l never saw
.uch a vast extent, practically all
rsadv so all that one has to do is to
hitch up the pillow and go to work.

Migratory Now Workers.

New Workers move oftener than the
people of any other large city in the
world. The city directory shows that
on an average 65 per cent of the resi-
dents change their addresses in the
course of year. High rents and the
apartment system of living are largely
responsible for the many changes, but
real estate agents hold the prevalent
system ofpermittinga tenant to occupy
a house or a fiat rent free for a few
weeks or more as an inducement to
move into it to blame for the nomadic
of large proportion of New
Workers.

The mining case is known as the
Minnie Healey, from the name of the
mine, and it is valued at $10,C00,OO0. A
few years ago the worth Of the mine
was not known, but with an eye to its
possible development and profit one
of Marcus Days friends, Miles Finlen,
received an option on the property. At
that time F. Augustus Heinze, who was
in litigation with the Boston and Mon
tana Company, company then OPP
posed to Days interests, obtained per-
mission from Finlen to work the prop
erty According to Finlen permission
to exploit the mine was granted to
Heinze in order that the position of the
latter against the Boston and Montana
Company might be strengthened. Ac-
cording to Hein4e he became absolute
owner of the mine for suitable con-
sideration.
Heinze developed the property and
demonstrated that it was valuable
asset. Just at this time Marcus Daily
switched his friendship from Heinze to
the Boston and Montana Company and
to the newly organized Amalgamated
Copper Company. its successor. Where
upon Finlen disavowed the deal with
Heinze. Naturally the case went be-
fore the courts for adjudication, and
