ever, that the steel trust. which has
this year had its first experience with
lake navigation, will so extend its op-
erations that the season Of 1902 will
greatly surpass all preceding ones.
The closing Of navigation on the
great lakes has some very interesting
features. Now Is the time when the
good old lake captains can enjoy seats
by CHEEKY fires, smoke their pipes and
tell stories by the hour without a care
for compass or chart. stormy seas or
fierce gales. Now. too. is the time
when the men who serve under these
same good old captains HE themselves
to inland points to seek occupation for
the winter months.
Even before the season is formally
declared at an end the first approach
of bad weather is signal for heavy
desertions by sailors. To some it Is
O call to cease work completely. to so
into winter quarters themselves - to
hibernate. as ii were Most fellows of
this stamp hang about the docks and
the dock grogshops during the season
of idleness. doing themselves and
those around them very little good.
Those who feel inclined to work go
as q rule to the northern woods, where
they can earn from $50 to S45 month
and their board. The deserters are
especially numerous on Lake Superior,
owing to the fact that when the boats
are on that lake they are nearer the
busy woods. while sailors who stay on
lake port find themselves compelled
to pay car fare over a long route.
Marine activity is not at a complete
standstill. however. despite the closing

dred new lake vessels will be built dur

means employment for a number of

various harbors and at the 500. Hun
dreds Of these Improvements will Don
be under way. involving in each case
the expenditure of thousands Of dollars
and the employment of many men.
Even modest improvements in such
lines cost immense sums. The princi-
pal work to be done is the construction
Of big docks at various points. and
more men will probably be employed
in this work than has been the case for
many winters.
On the lake vessels themselves there
is much activity long after navigation
has ceased. Now is the time for house
cleaning. Instead of waiting until

Critic and Author Goes In For Crys-

Especial Correspondence


NEW YORK, Dec. 31.-How Andrew
Lang, the most prolific Of writers,
finds time for crystal gazing Is beyond
comprehension. Crystal gazing. by the
way, is London's latest fad, in which
Mr.. Lang is the prime mover. In an
article in a recent monthly review he
recommended that every one should
possess q crystal ball and sit down
with IL in the hope of seeing uncanny
pictures. His advice has been taken to
the extent that about all London Is
now crystal gazing.
1t is best, he says, to go into room
and sit down with your back to the
light. Place the ball at the proper f.
Gus on piece Of dark cloth. Try to ex-
clude reflections. Think Of everything
you please. Stare, say, five minutes at
the ball. That Is all. Mr.. Lang says he
has known people to see In the crystal
things actually happening miles away.
More wonderful still, he has known
people gazing into separate crystals At
the same moment each to see the same
picture.
The versatility of Mr.. Lang's gen
ius is marvellous. He does more things
than anybody else. While 1t is diff
cult to understand how he finds time
to do it. Mr.. Lang certainly does a
stupendous amount of work and still
has a good bit of time for play. He
writes leading articles for one daily
newspaper. reviews novels for another
and contributes to the magazines. He

VI have had two failures The first
was caused by poor bookkeeping /

New York they mixed things up for me

1.-THE second failure was the result of
a conspiracy. The bank in which for
over a year I had over 5000, 900 on de-
post and where ] had not overdrawn
and to which / had owed as much as
$124.000 two years before, refused to

kilograms where | had $4,000 which

II have never told that before, but
it's the truth. They got around the
bank and fixed 1t so that / could not
get any money, and 1t was all off with
me. But my customers had implicit
confidence in me. l have them all back

put in his claim to the referee In bank
ruptcy. had three customers to whom
l owed each $4,000, but they did not

II base my predictions on absolute
knowledge of conditions. I am advis-
ing the purchase of wheat now, be-
cause 1t is selling too low. The bears
say IS cents is enough for wheat. I
say that Is a panic price. l know that
wheat viii go to 80 cents in the fall
The demand is greater than 1t
ever was, and the condition of the crop
makes II certain that wheat will reach
80 cents. That is the line I am run
ming now-buy wheat.

IT is not a pastime. If a young man

Driver, Thrown From Wagon, Alb
sOrbed Money for Freight.
A delivery wagon belonging to the
Branch Estate created considerable ex-
element in the neighborhood of Whit
aker and Congress streets Saturday
evening. The driver, Eddie Maxwell,
distinguished himself by swallowing
the money he had been given to pay
freight on consignment of groceries
to Isle of Hope.
The horse attached to the wagon,
while standing in front of the store,
became frightened by passing trolley
car and bolted. The lines broke and
the driver found it impossible to man.
age the animal, that dashed down
Whitaker around the corner of Con-
gress street into a laundry wagon,
which was demolished, and then into
a second wagon, that suffered the same
fate.
On down Congress street the horse
continued, depositing it's driver care
fully in front of Solomon's drug store.
Maxwell sustained some minor injuries
to his head but the principal damage
done was the loss of the money, which
he had placed in his mouth for safe
keeping, after the manner OF his race,
and which the force of his impact with
the asphalt induced him to swallow
Such small injuries as the man re-
ceived were given attention in the
drug store. The parcel car was in
duced to wait while the orders from
Isle of Hope again filled and a
second delivery wagon brought them ia
the car. The exact amount of the loss
due to Maxwells queer appetite for
small change has not been stated: IL
is not believed to be large.
