AMERICAN BOY DAY AT THE ST.
 LOUIS EXPOSITION.

The St. Louis Exposition manage ment wisely determined to recognize American boys by setting apart a spe- cial day for them at the Exposition. The day selected is July 9th, and the
 program and arrangements for the day are in the hands of William C.. Sprague. editor of The American Boy, of Detroit. The program includes athletic contests in the stadium be- tween the boys of the public schools, in which public school teams are en- tered from Chicago, New York and other cities. and opportunities will be given for individual entries. From 2:30 to 4:30 in the afternoon public exer- cises will be held in Festival Hall, the central attraction of the grounds. It is expected that three thousand boys will take part in the unique pro- gram, consisting of orations. recita- tions, music, etc, by talented boys from various parts of the country, the reading of messages from Presi- dent Roosevelt and the Governors Of all the states and territories, music by one of the Exposition bands. and by Prof. H. B. Roney. who will pre- side at the great organ-the largest in the world. Three thousand boys will be heard in chorus singing pa trioic songs. There will be an ad-

THE COPPER SITUATION.

"A leading international authority on copper" is quoted by the Boston News Bureau as follows: We are selling copper abroad steadily. There is now no surplus copper in Europe. notwithstanding all that was sent abroad several months ago. There is an unprecedented demand for the metal throughout Europe Europe has come 10 our rescue and will this year take the surplus American pro duction
 T figure that while exports of cop per have fallen off from the abnormal movement the early part of the year, they will average at least 15,00 tons per month from now on. which will mean an increase for 1904 of 100000 tons over exports of last year. or 200,- 900. .000 pounds. This will just offset an estimated decrease in American consumption compared with last year of 30,0o0 10 10000 tons and an in crease of between 5000 and 60O09 tons in the American production as compared with last year.
 Sentiment counts more than statis- tics in copper or anythiny else. June and July are always poor copper months but stocks of copper in this country are light. The Amalgamated interests are the only people who have copper for sale and have no stocks worth speaking of. The Phelps-Dodge interests, who probably control as much copper as the Amalga- mated company, have no spot copper for sale in any large amounts. Con- sumers of copper never buy on a de clining market. The easiest way to keep copper consumers from buy ing is 10 put prices down.
 T know that consumers of cops, in this country are csrryiny extremely small stocks and in @onsrGuenee ] am anticipating a good busiress afte-

Those that are of value and that stand the test of time come usually on top of a slow and gradual evolution, the result of work and long experience The ingenious mana doctor lawyer or green grocer that takes it into his head that he can solve the difficult problem of how to treat certain lowgrade refractory ores. or to invent a process by which gold can be redeemed from dry plac- CTS in an arid region is apt to be ir- rational. With admirable ingenuity he invents a machine that seems to completely and absolutely fill the bill. The workings and success of it Is as obvious and sure as the sunrise. The machine is tried, but somehow it doesn't work. What is the trougle? The troplle lies in the incomplete knowledge, training and experience of the inventor. who, whilst overcoming the main and obvious difficulties, and has not been able to see the subtitle difficulty that makes his invention abortive. The old and experienced man has long seen this particular difficulty and has been thinking a lifetime how to overcome it. and still thinks and hopes whilst fools rush in where angels fear to tread" IL is this lack of profound and we'll rounded education and experience that We believe is at the bottom of so many failures in the otherwise ingen- ious inventions and devices of the pro- cess man. He has the ingenuity in no small degree, but he lacks the scientific education and the necessary experience. These are not born in 8 day.

These are amongst the banes and necessary evils of the mining pro- fession and Yet they are not without their redeeming features. All so-call- cd fakirs are not imposters, and all process men are swindlers. Some are quite honest and others are very ingenious and often industrious men. We have known "Divining Rod" men with their witch hazels who sincere ly believed in their bending twig as much as did their dupes. We have nave known process men whose ingen- uiiy Was most commendable, and wbo thoroughly in the efficacy of their ma chine or process. We can even be- lieve that spiritualistic mediums be- lieyed or had selfIpersuaded them selves in their delusion.
 What is fundamentally wrong with these human phenomena and with the principle? The root of the matter in some cases in the shirking of that divine implanted principle, honest work. The supposition that certain things can be discovered and made easy by some other way than by legitimate work. that there are other and royal roads 10 heaven than the narrow way, this seems at the bot tom the fakir business and those who believe in and employ or support them.
 Men are apt 10 think. for instance, that veins can be discovered and their riches in depth predicted by spiritual mediums Or by personal magnetism instead of the lobar of the prospector with his pick and shovel. or the toll of the geologist. To aid this de- fusion is also the popular infatuation Tor quackery. the preference of the supernatural over the natural and the dictates of reason and the product of science
 It might be laid down as a general maxim that if thing does not appeal 10 scientific reason and common sense there is nothing in it, 2. g.take the witch hazel delusion in finding or To- eating water or mineral veins On what scientific principle under heaven can there be any grounds 10 suppose that a crooked stick held in a par ucular way can have an affinity for water below the surface that it will wiggle in the hands of the holder when he passes over the spot where such a vein is concealed? The stick certainly is dead and inert. the vital power must be in the man who holds it. yet what affinity can a man have with a vein. what teleopathie in fluence can a vein have on hime This is all poppy cock" and delusion of the widest and most imbecile character.
 Veins, both of water and mineral, must be discovered by work. by toll. or by the sue of the students r1iG- night oiL-there is no other road. He that seeketh findeth,' there is 10 royal lazy road. There are some contrivances that have something at best very limited and uncertain.
 When We come to the metallurgi- cal and process side of this question we are amongst a fraternity whose name is legion. These almost in variably start with the supposition that all that has been slowly evolved from the laborious past in the treat ment of ores is radically wrong and it remains for some ingenious individ- ual. whose training has been distinctly as for instance certain electrical con triyances or the use of the magnetic

COMPLETES HIS WORK.
Special Agent Fox has the Rural
Routes for Grant Co. all Laid Out.

Special Agent George E. Fox was
in town Wednesday, for a last call
before returning to Chicago, having
completed his work of laying out
rural routes for Grant county.
Mr.. Fox found the task rather
difficult, on account of the lay of
the land, but no doubt he has done
his work we'll.
The new system will be in opera
ton the latter part Of July or early
in August. Lancaster and Platte
vile will each have ten routes, and
nearly every town in the county
of any size will have one or more.
Changes in mail routes will be
numerous, and the new system will
work a general revolution in the
mail business of the county. Alto
gether there will be 70 mail routes
in the county, counting ip the half
dozen that run outside of the coun-
ty, but start in it's borders.

ElC NOT Lock THE PART.
Eminent Jurist Unable to Convince
Officer of His Rank.


Lord Brougham once visited IA
nous school in England, where one OF
the boy pupils, in honor of the guest,
recited a part of one of his lord
ships speeches. At the conclusion OF
the recital, depositing very seedy
looking hat on his chair, he sprang to
his feet and vehemently applauded
the interpreter of his bygone elo-
quence. But, unfortunately, on resum-
ing his seat, he forgot that it was
occupied by his hat, upon which he
sunk, with very disastrous conse-
quences. Highly gratifed with his
reception, he passed on to the head
masters house, where with the elite
of the visitors, he was hidden to lunch.
There, however, his self-esteem en-
countered tie rude shock, for the po-
liceman, stationed at the door to keep
off undesirable company, sternly asked
the dilapidated-looking old person his
business. 81 am invited here to
lunch," growled out the indignant
guest. "Gamnon!" CURLY responded
the guardian Of the peace. Il am Lord
Brougham!" was the furious rejoin-
der; "let me pass!" BAH" con-
temptuously retorted the policeman;
"you want me to believe that, do yer?
Move on At this critical juncture
the old lord, inarticulate with rage,
was fortunately espied by another emf
nent guest, who succeeded in allaying
the suspicious of the policeman.

you please to term it." said Represen
tative Little of Arkansas, "and this
fact reminds me of a good story told
by our family physician out home.
This good doctor was called to the
home of recently rich family to see
his wife, who was suffering with a
cold. She was dressed in rather
snowy, carefully made deshabille, and
was clearly doing her utmost to make
an impression and show the pill dis
penser that she was somebody.
And how is the madam to-day?'
asked the doctor, as he sar!1 into one
of the easy chairs.
Oh, shockingly ILL., was the reply,

her red nose and blear eyes.

nouncing the words as if endeavoring
to establish the character of a fashion

doctor, almost bursting with amuse-
ment as he addressed the husband,
plain, blunt man, who sat near by sniff

Yes, I'm sick, too, DOCTOR he
answered, wiping his nose on his coat

Freddie's Letter to God.

Freddie was years old, and had
been devoutly reared. He had been
struggling at dinner with an apple
baked with the skin on, and had made
detailed inquiries into the reason why
apples had skins and who put them
there. After dinner he announced
that he wanted to write letter on
his fathers typewriter. In few min
utes he produced a letter consisting
chiefly OF "q's" and us" He was
asked whom he had written to, and
read his letter as follows:
Dear God: Please come around
and see us some night. l never saw
you yet, but my papa says you are
very nice. Please God don't make any
more baked apples with skins.

Farmers Institutes For 1oo4-1oo5.


Any farmer or public-spirited
business man in Wisconsin who
wishes to secure an Institute for his
locality during the winter of 1904
1905 should send to us for blank
petition and letter of information.
Any town, no matter how small or
how far from the railroad, is en-
titled to an Institute, provided it is
located in a farming district and
has good hall in which a meeting
can be held.
Farmers should talk this matter
up with their neighbors and if the
sentiment seems favorable for an
Institute for their town, they
should write at once for an appl1ca-
ton blank.

DISHES WILL NOT BREAK.
Belgian Manufacturers Have Circum-
vented the Careless Servant.

vented the Careless Servant
James C. McNally, consul Of the
United States at Liege, Belgium, has
reported the invention by manufac-
turer there of dinner plates which
servants can idly drop upon the stone
floor without breaking, and dishes
which make excellent hammers with
which to drive nails. Here is the
story in his own words: "The Com
pany Du Waist. Lambert, of Liege,
is manufacturing a hardened crystal
dish, which in appearance closely re-
sembles fine translucent china of uni
form shape and manufacture. The
resisting power of this ware is due to
special hardening process and to the
quality and nature of the crystal used.
It not only successfully resists the
usual wear and tear, but is almost
proof against breakage.
"A hardened crystal Gish can be
substituted for hammer in driving
nails into wood, while the same ware
can be put into boiling water at a
high degree, then plunged into ice
water repeatedly. without the least
noticeable damage to the dish or
plate. The writer has seen plates
OF the usual form of this hardened
ware hurled to the stone floor of a
warehouse and go bounding along the
whole length of the building without
suffering the least damage This same
firm makes glassware of the same
corresponding resistance"

Some Ancient Families.

OF the four hundred barons in the
British house of lords, about dozen
date back to 140O, the earliest being
1864. The Oldest family in the British
Isles is the Mar family, in Scotland,
1893. The Campbells of Argyll began
in $780, the Grosyenors, the duke Of
Westminster's family, 1866. The Aus
trian house Of Hapsburg goes back to
952, and TIE house of Bourbon to 864.
The descendants of Mohammed, who
was born in $40, are all registered au-
thoritatively in book kept in Mecca
by chief of the family. Little or no
doubt exists of the absolute anthem

descendants.
