Rising Importance of Caoutchouc.
 One of the natural products of the world which year by year is rising in importance is caoutchouc, or india rubber. A French writer has drawn attention to the vast and nearly neg lected resources of Peru in regard to this substance. The finest rubber produced comes from the basin of the Amazon, the supper portion of which lies in Peruvian territory, and in- species of gum-yieldfng trees. Main ly for want of roads, the exportation is not tithe of what it might be, and the forests, where there is any ex- ploitation, are being ruthlessly sacri- hced without regard to the future after the manner of South American republics. Probably in the time to come more rubber may be exported from Central Africa than from Peru. London Telegraph.

DROVE THE RAIN AWAY.
District Court oflcia1 Who Brought
 Sunshine With Him.

Waffle people in general have been complaining of bad weather, an or fcaaI of the district court is an eXcep- tion. If 1t ever happens that his reg ular business undergoes such vlc1ss1- tudes that it will no longer "pan out' he thinks he could make big th1ng in fstoDuiug rain. The business Wou1u surely be a novelty and would unQueS- tionably pay big returns Dur1ng Ihe few months of his vacation, every where he went he heard people cohH- paauinx of the weather, but day or ao after his arrived things br1ghteneo up and everybody attributed the gooo change to his presence Upon arriV- ing at Albany, the first place he sOop- ned at, the weather had been crying for weeks. but the day after his arr1V- al ifs tears turned Do smiles and con- timed so while he was there.
 The same conditions confronted him at Niagara ENaIIS. his next stopping place, and there he made everybody happy by turning off the rain. When he reached the fishing resorts in Maine iE had been raining for weeks without a 1et-up.
 The medicine men of the camps were at their wits ends to keep up good cheer, the guides were distracted with their hard luck. and visitors and crank fishermen were in the dumps. Everybody and everything was in bad humor But the Waterbury man changed everything. He told every body the night of his arrival that he would brighten up. things and bring smiles in the skies. And lol the next morning the dark rain clouds had chased themselves away, presumably to Waterbury, for when he arrived here Monday the weather was like what ,ft had been when he reached Maine. Conditions cleared up when he came down town next morning and he has promised that there will be no rain for some time. On this exper1- ence, this official of the district court thinks he can go into the rain-stoppfng business. He sees great returns in it by putting up jobs with the rain makers.

JUDGE BURPEE,s HOUR
Man Accused of Stealing Pocketbook
 Was Discharged.

Man Accused of Stealing Pocketbook
 Was Discharged.
 When Fred Pekeul arrived home last evening from work he was informed by his wife that a pocketbook contain ing $18.25 was taken from his trunk. Pekeul could not afford to lose this money and he was staggered by the news. Having ascertained that the pocketbook was surely gone he con- plained to the police and Detectives Kennaugh and. O'Gorman went to work on the matter. They found Gus Kominski, Pekeuls roommate in bed and charged him with the theft. Kominskt denied all knowledge of the money. A search was then begun but not trace of the missing money was found. 1t seemed to be @ hopeless task when it was suggested to search the trunks. Kominski's was raised, and the missing pocketbook with the money intact was found under it. Still Kominski denied having had any knowledge of the matter. He was ar rested and in court this morning before Judge Burpee he still pleaded inno- cence. In the examination it was shown that the parties live in Rushton place and that the family consists of four or five persons who live in three rooms. Accused and accuser occupy the same sleeping room. Judge Burpee did not consider the evil dence strong enough to hold the ac- cused and he accordingly discharged him.
 A complaint against Virgil Mtnson which has been continued from day to day for the last thirty days was nolled. Munson was charged with keeping all unlicensed dog.

Germs of Appetite for Liquor May Be
 Imparted to Babies.
 Chicago, Sept 3.-The theory that germs of an appetite for liquor are inn parted to Chicago babies through the medium of milk from cows that eat the refuse from Peoria distilleries has suggested itself to Assistant State Food Inspector R. M. Patterson.
 MT Patterson has just returned from Peoria, where he found 15O distiIlery fed cows whose milk had been regu- larfy shipped to Chicago. He enjo1ned the dairymen to sell no more milk from these cattle.
 T cannot say that saw any of the cattle under the influence of liquor,'' said MT Patterson, "but I know that corn mash has a peculiar effect on them, and 1t is against the law to sell their milk"

Mining Man Returns.

B. F. Graham has returned from an extensive trip to eastern cities. Mir. Graham says that conditions in the east were very unsettled anu while there is some trading in Ari- zona properties the large class of in- vestOrs are not making any invest ments but holding on to their money until later on. The recent slump m U. S. steel stocks seems to have been the cause of much uncertainty and men who have been investing largely in mining and industrials have been stopped of short and want to wait developments. During his visit east Mir. Graham went to New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas City. MT. Graham said that he was asked many times about certain copper stocks in the Bsbee district, and it seems as though the people are waiting for something to develop before making more investments.
