The Eiks Are Royal Entertainers.

On Tuesday night OF this week, II. b.
Sheldon was unanimously elected by the
local Elk lodge to succt ell w. A. Gable
as Exalted Ruler, the latter having sent
on his resignation from his new home in
Whatcom. Washington. The election. of
unanimity shown in the choice OF Mr..
Sheldon was naturally very gratifying to
/ him, and we understand that after the
lbs allaiion ceremonies, which will take
place next Tuesday night, he will deliver
the crowning speech OF his life and shed
genuine tears of gratitude.
After the election, the lodge resolved
itself into a committee of the whole on
reception and for few hours was busily
engaged in entertaining quite a number
of guests who had been invited to gambol
for a while in the Elks' green pastures
and partake of some modest solid and
liquid refreshments of harmless nature
Sweet music dispen' ell by the Koenigs-
berg orchestra served to fill in the waits
between the extemporsueous and excel
lent addresses made by different ones. as
well as other features. As the occasion
had been gotten up on but few hours
notice, the happy inspiration of some
member who suggested that the visiting
brother, Joe Newman, could thus be
nicely entertsined, no program had been
decided upon. and so the chairman of the
ENTERTAINERS, VI. w. Tanner, made up the
numbers as he went along.
Outside popular selections rendered by
the orchestra. an original air composed
by Mr.. Koenigsberg and dedicated to No.
COZ, was given and heartily sppiauded.
Joe Newman sang couple of catchy
songs and his brother followed with two
or three bumor Gus reci,ations. A num-
Der of Elks aud visitors were called upon
for rem rks during the evening and re.

THE SMELLING EXPERT.

Che of the curious trades of New York is that of the smelling expert, q man who earns his living literally by following his nose. He is employed by manufacturers of perfumery. It is his business to judge of the character, quality and value of the materials that go to the making of perfumes.
 Much of the perfumery made in this country is imported from France in the form of pomatums, and extracted with The smelling expert judges the quality of pomatums. Another and even more remarkable part of his busi- ness is to examine a popular imported perfume, determine from the smell of what it is made. and enable his em- ployeP to produce it here.
 Like the experts of the distilleries. who will take any given wine or spir- it's and after examination produce a counterfeit which only a connoisseur could detect as such, the smelling ex- pert by means of his unerring nose makes. possible the production of any perfume that it is desired to initiate.
 Possessed of so valuable a nose, he takes the utmost care of it. He does

While out shopping, if the Salesman showed him a Pair of Silk Pajams for S16, he always wanted to know if they didn't have something for SIS.
 He bought the first Auto ever seen ln the Place and took in the whole Circuit of Road Houses every day. Although six months away from a Buttermilk Diet, he began to know all about Vint- age Wines. He wore White Kid Gloves in the Morning and used three quarts of Violet Water in his Bath. He had more than 200 Cravats, mostly Blue, and he went in for open-work Socks with his Monogram worked on the Side.
 At the Theatre, he insisted on the Stage Box, and if the straw-colored Soubrine smiled at him he sent her cart-wheel of Violets worth $40.

FRANCES PEACE BONDS.

From recent official publications it appears that the French are giving their British rivals a close race for the first place among the worlds creditor nations. The thrifty Gauls have in Vestments in foreign securities to the amount of $6,OOO, ,OOO, 900, which is s16O for every man, woman and child in France. There is not country on the face of the globe in which more or less French capital has not been invested; no disturbance of the peace could occur anywhere without directly and injuri- ously affecting a greater or smaller number of Frenchmen. The state of affairs disclosed by the publications re- ferred to explains the latter-Gay con servatism of the French foreign policy. nation which has given bonds to keep the peace to such an amount as the French have done cannot afford to in- dulge in chauvlnism to any great ex- tent.-Philadelphia Record.

and one-half tons to the ton of shelled corn. The amount of potential fuel. therefore in the present corn crop is over 1O0.0OO,000 tons. Consider now the whole grain crop, including corn, wheat. oats, barley, rye, etc. The total amount of potential fuel involved is between 5O,OOO, ,OOO and 200, 100000 tons. Further, there are plants. like alfalfa and the sunfiower, which produce heavy fuel growths. Sorghum. how ever, is of all fuel plants the one which Mir. Atkinson regards as most promis ing. Sorghum, "compI cssCd i1t1 logs in a partially green stage" and sea soned as green wood is seasoned, holds out great possibilities of future use fulness. Besides. there is new seed grain plant from Egypt which grows rapidly in the semi-arid parts of this country. Could not this plant be used as fuel, and have we not here a means of turning the semi-arid west to ac- count?
 Whatever plant is used, the problem is essentially the same. Corn, wheat, alfalfa, the sunfiower, rye. oats, sor- ghum. caneDrakes. horse beans. barley, and the new seed grain plant from Egypt are all available for fuel only under one condition. Some cheap and effective means of compression must be devised. The farmer who wants to prepare his own fuel is confronted with a mechanical difficulty. If ''fuer' were cultivated" however, in large quan- titles on the western plains compress sion could be accomplished on a large scale at small cost. As for the "calo- rife power" of vegetable fuel, MT. At kinson thinks that twenty tons of corn stalk and leaves would equal about fourteen tons of bituminous coal. This being the case, one may hope that the chiefs of the agricultural experiment stations will give MT. Atkinson's sug- gestion something more than the de rision" which he deferentially antici- pates for it. If vegetable fuel is prac- ticable there are interesting industrial ahead of us.-Chicago Tribune

A COAL FAMINE HINT.

A seasonable reminder to the poor and not so poor is the warming quail ity of a newspaper. Half a dozen Daily Chronicles stitched together are scarcely inferior to an eiderdown quilt in point of warmth, as many boy at boarding school can attest. It is light. and yet a bountiful covering. In poor families where blankets are few and thin visitors may enlighten mothers on this point. A layer of newspapers be- tween blankets trebles the comfort of the coverlet. Their sole drawback is the crackle they make when the sleeper stirs. But for this man might fash ion himself an undersuit of newspaper which would be better than woolens in warmth, as well as price. It would be pleasure to know we were increasing our own circulation and that of others, at the same time.-London Chronicle.

DITCHED AT DON LUIS.
Wreck on Bisbee Road in Which One
 Man Is Hurt.

Sunday afternoon the passenger train which left this city for Naco was ditched near Don Luis, says the Bisbee Review. The cause of the accident was a switch left open by one of the train men of freight. The only one injured to any extent was Brakeman Henry Cunningham, who was standing on the rear platform of the passenger car which backed into the open switch.
 The train was running at a moderate rate of speed. and was upon the switch before Brakeman Cunningham noticed that it was not right. Before he couli signal the engineer to stop the train it was off the track. The passenger car left the track completely and rolled over into the ditch.
 The baggage car which followed the passenger car went off the track and was within a few feet of going over on its side. Had it not stopped where it did, it would have fared the same as the passenger car. The engine left the rails, but was stopped before it had gone far enough to do much damage.
 When the passenger car went over. Brakeman Cunningham made an at tempt to jump and save himself, but was too late. He went over with the car and had to be helped from under the wreckage. His left collar bone wys badly broken. and the upper part of his body badly bruised. At the hospital last night Cunningham was resting easy. The physician in charge states that he will be out in a few days.
