MARKET PRICE OF EARS.
Quoted as High as Five Thousand Dol
lars In New York City.

New York, Nov. l3.-The search by
a local physician and surgeon for a
human right ear of certain shape and
size, the owner of which was willing
to part with the organ in return for
$4,000, has been concluded.
Hundreds of persons applied in an
swer to the doctors advertisement.
Each vas examined and the right
nan was found in the person Of a
German restaurant keeper, whose
turn of i'll fortune recently has made
him ready to sacrifice both ears, if
necessary. The man to whom the ear
will be transferred is a wealthy mine
owner, who lost his In ar accident
several years ago, and, having acQuir.
ed riches, now wishes to marry and
wants his beauty restored.
The German presented himself at
the physicians house this morning to
sign an agreement, formally relinqu.
ishing his right and title to his right
ear on the receipt of the money and
will begin a course of training to fl
the patient for operation on Tuesday.
The man Is 40 years old. He has new.
er been i'll. but has had lots of hard
luck. He has undergone operations
before, having had two fingers shot
off.
In case the German fails to keep
his agreement. an alternate has been
selected. He is an Englishman, 80
years old. who is said to have once
been a broker, but whose partner
fieeced him of all his property.

JAPAN BECOMING IMPATIENT.
DiIatory Methods of the Russians Dis
COURAGE Subjects of Mikado.

Pekin, Nov. 14.-It was learned to-
day from a trustworthy source that
Japan is dissatisfied with the pro-
gress of the negotiations between that
country and Russia. The Jap parlia-
ment meets December 5, and the gov
eminent of Japan desires to be able
to report that II has reached an agree
ment with Russia. as otherwise the
opposition party is certain to attack
the ministry violently, demand war
with Russia and perhaps inflame pub
lie sentiment to the war point.
1t is pointed out that negotiations
have been dragged recently, especial
ly while the car and his foreign min
lister, Count Lamsdorff, were absent
from Russia, Baron De Rosen, Rus
sian minister at Toxic. representing
that nothing definite could be arrang.
ed while they were away.
The Japs claim that Russian tao
tics have been dilatory throughout.
They point out that Japan first
preached the subject of the Manchu-
rian convention, and that when Rus.
STA did not fulfill her pledge to evac-
uate the second province of Manchu'
ria, Russia suggested that negotia'
tons be deferred until NJ. 'Lessar,
Russian minister to China, who was
on leave of absence, returned to Pc
kin. Then Japan renewed her over.
lures and Russia proposed further de,
lay. The japanese consequently ex'
press the opinion that the object OF
the Russian policy is TO gain time &c
prepare for a possible war.

Mr.. Coburn, like all other cattlemen
in the west, has but little use for
sheep. which, he says, ruin more

the grass and leave the range as bar,

cattle men have for the past several
years been engaged in a warfare
which has resulted in many deaths,
and they have been troubled but little
by the sheepmen.

COST OF LIVING.
Bureau of Labor Gives Out Some Sta.
tistics on the Subject.

Washington, Nov. 13.-The bureau
of labor has issued a bulletin on cost
of living of workingmen's families.
showing that of 2,617 families in SO
states. from whom data was obtained.
the average income per family was
$S27.l9; the average expenditure for
all purposes. $76S.54; the average ex-
penditure per family for food. $326.90.
and the average size OF family 5.3l
persons.
The last figure is seven-tenths above
the average of private families in the
whole country as shown by the cen.
sus OF 1900. The food expense is
more than 1925 per cent OF expendi-
ture for all purposes. An extended in
v~estigation covering the years 1890
and 1902 shows that the cost of food
reached its highest in 1902. the aver
age then being 1913 per cent above the
average for the decade 1S90-1S99, an
increase of 1911 per cent, compared
with 1896. a year of low prices. It is
announced as a conservative conclu.
sion that the increase in cost of living
as a whole in 1902, when compared
with the year of lowest price, was not
