AWEK aud now, according to the
-. news dispatches, they are
- likely to secure this i'm
portant strategic and commercial
point by purchase of the, en-
tire Portuguese possessions in East
Africa. It is asserted that this
acquisition will be announced at the
next meeting of parliament. It is also
reported that Germany is to have a
portion of the Portuguese possessions
IN accordance with secret convention
with Great Britain as a reward for
German neutrality during the Boer
war. In the light of the fact that Del
agoa bay is admittedly the key to Brit
1sh South Africa, the peculiar eager.
ness of his majesty's government to
possess it is easily appreciated.
Delagoa bay is not only one of the
best natural harbors in all Africa, but
it is the only practica BILE seaport with
in reasonab BILE reach from Pretoria. In
possession of it the English may easily
cllnch their claim to being the supreme
power in South Africa; without it they
are more or less at the mercy of for
eign nations. Delagoa bay lies at the
southern extremity of the Portuguese
territory of Mozambique. It is nearly
70 miles in length north and south and
from 16 to 25 miles in width. Nearly
all South African ports are more or
less spoiled by the presence of huge
sand bars at slight depths below the
waters surface; but in Delagoa bay
there is sufficient depth of water over
the bars to allow the passage of smaller
boats, while navigable channels of con-
siderable width for the largest YES
sells are well known to the government
pilots. The inner harbor, from the bay
to the mouth of the English river, on
the left bank of which is located the
town of Lorenzo Marques, is an i'm
posing stretch of water. The whole

Doctor. mans nose is
ground to powder, smashed fat,
pushed to one side, it's all one to this
doctor. He removes the wreckage,
picks out the pieces that are too small
to use, and studies the former con-
tour OF the nose from photograph.
Then into the cavities left by
crumbling bone and flesh he puts paraf-
Tin filling which assumes the proper
shape and becomes encysted in the
flesh. When the nose heals the shape
is as it was before, and the paraffin
gives the wearer no trouble.
The nose expert has never advertised
or otherwise won the disfavor of his
confreres; his methods have been IA
vorably received and his practice
profitable. Almost anyone can spare
money sooner than get along without
nose.
My other friend doing we'll in an odd
trade is a ''wrecker." Not one who
lures ships upon the rocks, nor a rail-
road operator of the Jay Gould type,
but house wrecker, who buys houses
subject to removal and uses up the old
material. Of course there have al
ways been wrecke1s. But the digging
OF the subway has caused the tearing
down of hundreds of houses. The new
East river bridge has driven 10000
people from their homes to make way
for the approaches; and all over the
town old private and commercial struc-
lures are being torn down to make
room for "sky-scrapers." Big for
tunes are being made by wreckers who
have capital and boldness enough to ex-
pand their business rapidly.

IN FLORIOS SHOES.

I welcomed Florio Vincenzo when
he came over to become one of us.
He had no doubts of the future for he
wooed the Goddess of Good Fortune
boldly. Florio is fourteen; he came
from Palermo. He Travelled light.
When he opened his cheap paper valise
1t was apparently empty, save for a
pair of discredited and disreputable
old shoes. Florio bowed. cap in hand,
and his white teeth flashed as he smil-
ed sapvely; !. II am poor man, noble
man, seeking my fortune"
There was an odor that an old in
spector knew. He picked up one of the
shoes and extracted from it, after some
manipulation, creased and crumpled
hunk Of bologna sausage. The other
shoe was stuffed with a soft, sticky
and aggrressively fragrant mass of
Italian cheese. These articles and a
sum of Italian money equivalent to
about $l.S0, and the clothes he stood
in, formed the basis on which Florio
expected to rear his fortune.-Worlds

In Illinois May Prove q
Fortune.
RAILROAD PROJECTED
Through Territory and Plans
are Now Discusses to Have
the kaoiin Deposits
. Worked.

BY the building Of a branch line ct
the Illinois Central railroad north
from Golconda to Shawneetown, ILL.,,
it is probable that Mrs. Mckinley and
airs. M. c., Barber, heirs of the Saxton
estate, will gain great wealth. The
elder Saxton, during his lifetime,
bought large tract Of land in Illinois
that was said to be rich in mineral.
The venture never proved a paying
one and the land was held for years
by him and is now owned by Mrs.
Mckinley and Mrs Barber.
While there was no mineral Of the
more precious sorts in the mines, IT
was developed that there were large
deposits OF kaolin, clay that is used
Tor making the finest china, and for
years this has been mined and hauled
many miles by wagon, and so valuable
ls 1t that this primitive mode Of get
ting 1t to market paid.
1t was realized that IL railroad
could be secured the mines could be
worked to good advantage, and the
canton parties have received word
that the branch road will be built.
NJ c. Barber has been in consultation
Tor some time with parties who want
to lease the mines and open them
up.
The Saxton heirs hold a title to a
large tract Of this valuable territory
and II the land is not leased It is
possible that under M. c. BARRIERS d.
rection the mines will be developed.
The greater part of kaolin which is
now used by American potteries Is
imported from England. The quality
found in Illinois is said to equal that
which is imported.
The territory is said to have other
minerals of great value in addition
TO the clay.

The Municipal Code.

The Ohio Municipal code bill is now
a law and each city in the state, hav-
ing a population of over 5000 with
the exception of Cincinnati which
served as model for the new code) is
TO undergo an upheaval in its govern
ment. The new law comes into effect
on November Is but the elections do
not take place until the first Monday
in April Canton, in common with
the other unfortunate cities of the
state, must bear the yoke OF Boss
Cox's dictatorship and proceed to re-
model it's affairs in conformance with
the law. The number of councilmen Is
regulated by population and in the
case Of Canton the body will consist
of nine members. The term of Office
is to be two years. The salary of the
councilmen is to vary from $50 to
$1,000 per annum, according to popu-
lation. There will be but six wards
in Canton and it will be the duty of
the present council to redistrict the
city. Each Of the six wards will elect
one of the new councilmen and the
three others will be chosen at large.
Other officers chosen by the people
will be the mayor, president of the
council, treasurer, solicitor and audi
tor. All of these are chosen for
terms of two years, with the exception
of the auditor, who will serve three.
The vital forces of the government are
vested in a series of boards, the most
important of which is the board of
pubic service. This board will consist
OF either three or five members, the
number being optional with the coun-
Gil To this board is given full power
in the creation and filing of public
offices, the fixing of salaries and the
bonds required. The board makes all
contracts for municipal jobs after the
work has been authorized by the coun-
Gil and the appropriations made. An
other of the series is the board of
public safety. This board is empower.
ed to employ the members of the po-
lice and fire departments, to fix their
wages and accept their bonds. 1t
may be composed Of two or four mem
bers, as the council may determine.
The term of service is four years, half
Of the members being appointed every
two years In case the council dis
agrees in the selection of this board,
the appointive power is left with the
governor. The health board will be
of five members, appointed
by the mayor and confirmed by the
All present employees retain
their positions and the members OF
the board are to serve without COM
pensation.
