Wheat got over so cents in Chicago, the
highest price Of the year Corn is near
20. Only twice in twenty years has IT
been as high. Oats for May delivery
sold at 461s cents, the point from which
their price descended back in 1884. Pork
has gone as high as Sir Thomas Upton
put it in his corner of a year ago. Lard
was selling for half as much, almost III
cents a pound for May delivery. The
whole provision list was at the top
prices of the year.
This buying of grain has not been con
fined to the Chicago IT arket. according 70
q dispatch from the Windy City. All over
the West elevator men, storekeepers and
farmers have been busy buying for days.
The provision market holds up strong,
and all kinds of live stock are bringing
good prices.
The men of the West have been work
ing for six months for bull produce
market. They had the rich professionals
against them for months, the Chicago
correspondent says, but they kept up
their crusade for higher corn and oats
and pork and wheat until the present
prices have been reached

feet i'll length. The projectile was shell
Is inches in diameter and feet in length,
containing a charge Of 500 pounds of wet
gun cotton, the whole, including the shell,
weighing 1850 pounds. The claim of the
inventor was that with charge of 30
pounds of powder, his. shell or torpedo
would disable, by the detonation of The
wet gun cotton, any battleship in exist
ence at Il distance of $500 yards. The
target used in the test was Kruppized
steel plate, IL inches thick, backed by 5
feet of steel. To the rear of the target
was bank of sand s feet high and 60
feet long. The gun was located 500 feet
was reduced in the test, so as to repre-
sent the distance of $500 yards When
the shell struck the armor plate, the lat
ter remained uninjured. while pieces Of
the shell flew in every direction. Two
other tests were made and while the tar
get was cracked and otherwise damaged
the experts are of the opinion II K the
impact of the shells did the damage and
not the composition entering into them
Gathman. however, declares the iisser-
tions of the experts to be false. He says
the cracking of the plate was caused by
the defamation of the wet gun cotton and
that had the target been a battleship, no
human agency could have stopped The 70
coming water and the explosion of the
400 pounds of gun cotton would have kill
ed every body on board.

Mrs. Champion had been prevented
paying visit to Lady Grace, as she had
intended; but she. nevertheless. fulfilled
her promise Of sending WinifFed in her

When the latter arrived she found her
kind hostess alone. all her gu SITS being
away on an excursion to the neighboring
woods. They had spent pleasant after
noon together, and just as the wheels Of
the returning carriages were heard, Lady
Grace sent her young friend away to
dress, promising to call for her on her

there was no one in 1t but Lord Harold

Lord Harold forthwith devoted himself
to being agreeable to his new acquaint-

quite at her ease. and chatted gayly to
him. Presently The door at the further

Her Citizens Now Demanding Adm s.
sion TO Statehood.
The citizens of Arizona are making ev-
cry effort to get the favorable attention
of Congress to their appeal for admis sion
to statehood. They point out the won
derful development of their country, its
increase in population, the construction
of new railroads and the establishment
and encouragement of schools and popu-
lation as sound and sufficient reas, rs
why they should be admitted to citiD.al-
ship. New Mexico and Oklahoma are
also demanding admission into the sister
hood of States.
The population of Arizona has greatly
increased in the decade 1S90-190O. rising
from 5000 to 122,931. The material
development of the territory has kept
pace with the increase in population.
Some of the richest copper regions of the
country have been develoncd and are
now putting out ores worth many mill
ions of dollars annually. Besides the
copper, gold and silver ores there are
valuable deposits of the rarer metals
which are being worked to a nrofit.
The arid climate of Arizona has been
one of the obstacles that the honeseeker
has had to contend with and the absence
of water for mining pu poses has serious
ly interfered with work in many of the
valuable mines. 1t is a problem that the
people do not consider beyond their abil-
ity to solve, however, and one of the
greatest works of The present time is the
construction OF an immense storage reser-
voir that win cost several million dol
lars and furnish water to large dis
trict. The climate is such that the pres
ence Of water in abundance makes it
profitable to raise the semi-tropical fruits
and vegetables that have proved SO yalua-
BILE in other sections OF the country.

LONG RAILWAY RUNS.

Trips that Are Male By Train ard
Pullman Gar Conductors
AS the speed of trains is accelerated
between distant points the runs made
hy train and Pullman conductors are
b lgthened out. The conductors on
Rock Island No. II. better known as
the fast mail, run from Chicago to this
city, 35S miles. Returning the next
morning, they lie over one and a halr
days in Chicago before coming out
again Out on the Union Pacific con
ductors on the. Overland and limited
mai. trains run from Omaha 10 Chey-
enne and from Cheyen to Ogden, $40
and 514 miles pectivey. The dime
they are on the road is, however, less
than years ago. when the runs We're
less than 300 miles in length.
The distances covered by the Pull
man car conductors is vastly greater
than those by train conductors. From
Chicago 10 Denver is 1,041 miles. Pull
man ear conductors consider this a
short run. The men in charge of the
sleeping ears on the Northwestern and
Union Pacific accompany their cars
from Chicago to Portland. Ore 1t
takes nine DAYS to make the round trip
of nearly 1000 miles. and they make
about two and half trips per month.
On The Santa Fe the Pullman condnc-
tors run from Chicago to San Francis
co, and ON the Canadian Pacific they
remain with their cars on the trip
across the continent which consumes
nearly six days from Portland. Me- to
