THE PROSPEROUS WEST.

It has been. said that the great pro- .ducing West doesn't know that there is such place as Wall street. It is evil dent that the West is now in much better shape than Wall street. A com petent witness who has just returned from a western trip says that in a five weeks journey through Missouri, Kan sas, Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, and Indian Territory, he heard not one dissenting voice from the universal acclaim of prosperity. He talked with men in all walks of life, from the farm hand to. the bank presi- dent. Travelling men said they could not get goods to their customers fast enough. Farmers said crops were bountiful, and prices all that could be wished. Railroad men said their only trouble was to handle the enormous volume of traffic. Manufacturers said their only difficulty was in getting the additions to their plants completed so they could catch up with their orders. The warehousemen had no more room in their elevators: the bankers had vaults filled with deposits and ready demand for money; contractors and builders had work in sight for a year ahead; even the cattle in the fields and the horses in the streets looked sleek. The mortgage on the farm has been paid off, and the farmer has money to loan. Industrials are making money, and railroads are paying dividends The earth has been prolific; buying, selling, carrying, developing, all are going for ward with a hum of industry that can almost be heard. Confidence is strong and faith in the future is firm.
 All of which is very cheering. The West will perhaps save the whole coun- try this year. I s..z.ss....

 The Russians take their pleasures vigorously. The annual fair of Nishni- Novgorod lasts from the first of July to the end of September, and is, in a certain sense, a long holiday. During the two months last summer the total number of sick and wounded who were attended by the fair authorities was 30,- $40. Of these 696 received wounds from blows, 31 had been stabbed, and 1,160 had fractured limbs. Practically all this casualty list was the result of the many banquetse held by the Russian merchants attending the fair. Not a single case was reported to or by the police.

Sam Powell, of Wagoner, Indian Ter ritory. thinks Indians are better than they are commonly reputed to be. He says: Our Indians are civilized: more Of them can read and write in propor- ton than the whites can. Most of the Indians are Methodists or Baptists. Many are Eoiscopalians, and some few are Catholics. They are quite as com petent as the whites anywhere. Yet two-thirds of the crimes in the territory come from liquor drinking, but it would take the whole United States army to prevent the illegal sale of liquor.

After noting that to-day is the two hundred and sixty-eighth anniversary of the session of the General Court in Cambridge which banished Roger Will Hams, the Boston Transcript remarks: And no redress yet" No, says the Providence Journal, land there is no need of any. That ruling of the Court was good thing for both Massachu- setts and Rhode Island. It rid the for mer of man who was sure to make trouble to no useful purpose in such surroundings as there repressed him, and it gave the, latter the distin- guished privilege of sheltering the first outflowering of principle of govern nent the widening application of which throughout the world has materially nitigated the hardships of mundane existence. There is no need for any complaint from anybody"

Disappear.

NEWPORT. Sept. 4.-Mrs. John r
Drexel. of Philadelphia, whose collection
of precious stones is among the most
valuable in the world. has lost two OF
her most beautiful jewels. The first dis
appeared July 4, and the other on Au-
gust Il. Mrs. Drexel, thinking she might
recover them without notoriety by MAX
ing a quiet search. said nothing OF the
matter except 10 few intimate friends
till today.
On July she lost a pear-shaped en-
eTald pendant. She was dining out. and
missed the jewel upon her return home
She thinks she lost it. but admits tha
possibility that it may have been grabbed
and broken from its support.
The jewel lost August II was a pend
ant consisting of a pear-shaped diamond
surrounded by five other and smaller dia-
monds. Mrs. Drexel believes she lost
this while at some function, or that It
was snatched from her. The value OF
the two jewels is estimated at $4,000.
