report IS ready to give out ths inter
est Of politicians and men who have
legislative aspirations will be at fever
heat.
So far no basis Of apportionment
has been agreed upon. This week can
not be done until all of the counties
send in the required information.

Some very complete maps and re-
turns have been received, and with
these, when al counties have reported,
the commission will be able to do
very rapid work. It is going TO be

made. Noble county has been allied
with Pawnee county heretofore, but
this time Noble wants to be attached

A oueer rrnnsaction.

Sir Arthur Sullivan discovered at
Monte Carlo one time that certain res
taurant pr0prietors had d way of reg
ulating their charges with the appear
ance and standing of their customers.
When lunching alone, Sir Arthur was
i'll the habit Of frequenting one partic-
Clar place where he knew to a centime
what the prices were.
One day there sat at the table adjoin-
ing his own a wealthy Russian noble
man. Upon asking for his bill the
composer found that the prices were
eXorbitantly high. He sent for the
proprietor ard demanded an explana-
ton.
The man, an Italian, recognized Sir
Arthur as an influential client and
was profuse in his apologies He ex-
planned that the mistake lay with the
cashier. Going over the items to which
exception was taken, the proprietor
said: THE convert l take him off di-
rectly, and the butter | charge him to
the grand duke. He not notice it,
The idea of charging to the grand
duke an item against whose extortion-
ate price another customer protested
always struck the great composer as d
decidedly humorous way of getting out
of the difficulty.

A Royal Road to wealth.

When certain late shah Of Persia
became temporarily embarrassed for
money, he had quite a unique method
of filing his purse. He would go to
the market, where after examining
the shops, he would select Qnc and,
turning to The proprietor, wORlld say,
"Will you take me i'll as partner in
your business for the day The Of
fer was, OF course, eagerly accepted.
The shah would take his seat near the
shop entrance and say to his courtiers,
whom he always took with him on
these occasions: Now, I'm salesman.
Who'll buy" The latter, not daring to
refuse the offers of the royal mer-
chant, set about clearing the shop of
it's contents, paying sometimes $50 for
goods that were not worth f10. No
one was allowed to beat down prices
or to leave the place without making
purchases. When everything was sold,
the shah had list of the cost price of
each article made out and Loyalty
shared with the shopkeeper the
amount of the profit realized.

NOW UNDER CONTROL
Old Dominion Company Gets the Best
 of the Flood.

After two weeks of anxiety and con- stant effort, the Old Dominion Copper company has now, it is believed, gained control of the water in its working shaft, and will soon be able to resume opera tions with a full complement of men. The lowering of the big pump in sections, to the tenth level, has been aC accomplished. and tonight it will be in operation. adding about 800 gallons q minute to the volume of water being raised by the smaller pumps and balinS tanks. It is believed that it will noi toke many days to uncover the large pump submerged on the twelfth level. and with that again in commission the control of the water will be compara- lively easy.
 The smelter was closed down several days ago on account of a scarcity O. fuel oil. but four cars of oil were re- ceived last night and more are expect ed, so the furnaces will probably be blown in again within two or three days.
 This cheering news, already current, has relieved the depression that mas eX- isted among the business men and the people of Globe generally, and every body looks forward hopefully to the new year, in the belief that it will usher in. more prosperous period for Globe.
