Twelve Maps Issued.

Twelve maps or more of the same size
as that Of the Harrodsburg quadrangle
have already been issued by the Geo
logical Survey principally of the eastern
and southern portion of the State. and
are now available. and others will fol-
low until the entire State is surveyed
and mapped.
One OF the recent reissues OF topo-
graphic maps of portions of the State OF
Maine is that of the Gray quadrangle
which covers a rectangular section about
thirteen and one-half by seventeen miles
In extent in Cumberland county, sur
rounding the town of Gray, from which
it takes its name.
The map is unusually accurate in all
details relating to boundaries, high
ways. railroads. and drainage. and is es-
pecially interesting in indicating by the
use of contour lines the elevations and
character of the slopes of the hills and
mountains found in the region.
II Is one of twenty or more sheets OF
similar size which have been issued by
the United States Geological Survey,
covering more than half CT the southern
portion of the State. The whole State
VIII eventually be surveyed. and topo-
graphic maps issued TO cover its entire
area.

ccipts were 1.O5i coo. compared with
100000 bushels one year ago This date.
Shipments were $4,000. against i07 .OG0
last year The market has ruled very
active today. the trading especially in
December being very heavy The stu
alton in September continues very
strong. and is gradually widening away
from the December. Weather condi-
tons today were OF a more favorable
character, hut there is a great chance
yet that spring wheat may not be
available for market as early as has
been predicted.
Estimated cars of corn Monday,
10. There was active trade in corn to-
day, and strong market has prevailed
all through. The bullish feature in
corn just now is the cash situation
There is daily consumption demand
here in .carlots for more than fifty cars
every day, so that carlots are selling
at considerable premium over the
September right on track. There is a
very much improved shipping demand
for corn.
Oats-The situation in oets is particu-
lrrly strong. Receipts are very light.

quirements. Estimated receipts, 120 for
Monday.
Provisions opened stronger in spite of
large receipts and estimates and lower
nogs. but the published stocks were a
surprise, showing small decreases, while
increases were predicted by the private
weekly estimates. This made scalpers
bullish and encouraged holders, and
toward the close there was very heavy
iuyinE by a prominent commission
house. generally credited to be for ac-
count of an outside party who was prob
ably short. Trade today was heavy, but
mostly for local account. Larger re-
oeipts are expected as soon 5s Urgent

THEIR PET BURGLAR.
People of Quiet Town Liked Him for
Relieving Eunui.

Speaking of burglars reminds me of a
rather curious condition which prevailed

ago. and may prevail now for ali that

Il have seen great many pets in my
life-pet dogs, pet cats, pet birds of va
rious kinds, pet monkeys, pets among
the fowls Of the air and the beasts of
the forest. pets among every living
thing that creepeth upon the earth-bu;
the Alabama town l have in mind Is the
only place l ever sow or heard of where
burglar became pet.
Yes. sir, there was burglar in the
town and he had actually become pub
lie pet. The men of the town actually
got so they would feel sighted if the
pet burglar didn't come around occa-
sionally and burglarize their houses.
They wanted their houses to be robbed
at night He sorter educated the resi-
dents up to the idea that it was gocl
thing for ones house to be burglarized
occasionally. You see, the place was
awfully dull and there was not much to
talk about at best. To have ones house
burglarized by Ia real bold, bad man.

night, to be visited by real live bur-
giar, would at least give one something
to talk about and would stir the COM
munity up little. 1t would shake off
the dull spell Every fellow seemed to
want 1t to happen to him, Most re-
markable thing I ever saw. Everybody
knew.Of course. who was doing the
work but nobody wanted to interfere
with the fellow. The only thing the
residents exacted OF him was that he
break into their houses by prying lock
off or saving a blind or in some other
way, and that he take something with
him when he left.
After the fellow had been operating
for some time he finally concluded that
he would break into a dry goods store

luton. The store was run by a promi-
nent Jew merchant of the place. The
burglar made a good haul. The next
day the merchant was telling friend
about the call the pet burglar had paid
him and was fretting a little because OF
the burglars extravaganza in helping
himself to his goods The friend re-
minded the merchant that he knew who
the man was who had broken into his
store and robbed him of his property.

fellow arrested. He shrugged his shoul-
lers and looked wise. After a few sec
onds he broke the silence by saying
What Have him arrested? Why,
man, l would lose the best customers
I've got in the community IL had that
fellow arrested for breaking into my
house. He's a pet. and 1t would ruin
my business.
