LONDON QUOTATIONS DEFINED
Speculative Influences Responsible TO
Decline in Standard Copper.

The Transcript asked John Stanton.
the statistician of the American copper
producers to define STANDARD" copper,
as quoted daily from London in its rela-
ton to American copper quotations. Mr..
Stanton says:
STANDARD copper is composed of any
kind of stuff that may carry 96 per cent
fine copper. and much of the visible
supply consists of material carrying
obnoxious impurities. Should some high
grade bars be found In stock a premium
is paid for them. and hear of 30 shill-
ings premium having been paid Tor
Chile bars quite recently. standard

under an ordinary contract the seller
can deliver any quality Of bars provided
they contain 96 per cent pure hence the

President Roosevelt and Eugene San
dow, the strong man, have met. On
November 2nd, by appointment, the
Sunday World says, they conversed,
and the impressions the professional
received of the President are told by
him thus:
"He is wonderful! Wonderful! /
never saw such energy, such power!
was prepared to meet an active man,
but when he entered the room, bound
ed across the floor, gripped my hand,
looked into my eyes and greeted me,
doing all these things at once, l was
amazed.
~ have strong hand. Unconscious
ly sometimes when shaking hands
grip ones fingers too firmly, perhaps,
but it would require some effort on my
part to use the force the President puts
forth when he shakes hands.
There was the quick, nervous grasp
about his handshake that told me it
was backed up by great physical
strength and tremendous energy.
His manner, his appearance-all his
actions indicate power. AT glance !,
or anyone, could tell that he was an
athlete. He looks like one, acts like
one, and 1 know he feels like one.
HE has himself in splendid COM
muscles. He knows just what each can
do. He has tested them and he gets
some form of exercise out of every one
of his actions.
II can imagine what his enthusiasm
would be in making Il charge against
an enemy and how he could inspire
his men. On horseback l should deem
him invincible. And after looking at
the man l believe that there Is not
horse on earth that President Roose-
welt could not conquer. The horse
would feel. the moment Mr.. Roosevelt
grasped the bride, that his master
was in the saddle.
1.-The Presidents nerves need no
treatment. Probably they never will
need treatment. He knows the bene-
fit of exercise. 1t is second nature to
him, and he will never give 1t up. And
SO long as he exercises his nerves will
never trouble him. To know his
strength all you have to do is to look
at his neck and shoulders. Even in re-
pose his muscles stand out. Every
thing about him, in fact, indicates that
he is as sound as young oak.
II must deal only with superlatives
in speaking of President Rooseyelts
physical makeup. His tremendous vi
tai energy and powerful build simply
make him man of iron.
my mission is physical culture, and
that alone. The athletic life that Pres
ident Roosevelt leads will do more to
advance physical culture and to raise
the physical standard of men and
women in America than all other infiu-
ences combined. With such an advo-
cate as he-an advocate who himself
exercises three hours each day-the
cause must triumph"

Something More Than a Drea

Something More Than Dream.
On the following morning, when
Ulin entered the main cave, Julian
was there to greet her. She extended
her hand to him and smiled as she
spoke. The youthful chieftain was
somewhat pale, but his large, lustrous
eyes burned with a deeped intensity
and the white brow offered strange
contract to the waving masses of golden
hair. The maiden's smile faded away
when she met the earnest gaze that
was fixed upon her, and her hand
trebled before she withdrew it. He
spoke to her few words Of cheer. ex-
pressed his gratitude that she had
found a place of safety; and hoped
that the future might have no more
clouds for her
20, my mistress" cried Abba, when
she and Ulin were alone, how noble
man he is!'
"Who?" asked the princess. starting

Gen. Buffers campaigning-and in
his forty-three years of soldering he
has seen much seyvice-has been prin-
cipally in Africa. Having served in
the Red river expedition in 1870. he be-
came one of the Garnet Wolseley
ring" and served under Sir Garnet in
Ashanti. But his fame rests chiefly
on his exploits in South Africa and in
the Sudan. In Zululand. after Isan-
dula, he largely helped to aver the
consequences of defeat and took part
in the battle OF Ulundi. Still more
notable was his record in the Sudan.
When Sir Henry Herbert Stewart was
wounded and Col Burnaby KILLED Maj.-
Gen. Butler took command of the des-
ert column and withdrew it in safety
from Gubat to Gokdul in the face Of
the mahdists. whom he defeated at
Abu Kleathe same spot where Burma
by had been killed a month before. His
record in the Boer war is fresh in ev-
cry ones memory.
