gelize England. He has started at
the southern tip of England near
Penzance in motor car, and will
zigzag across the, country until he
reaches the northernmost tip of the
territory of Scotland. General Booth
will be accompanied by IL assistants,
not counting chauffeurs, and six au-
tomobiles are necessary to carry the
party. The general has mapped out
everything carefully so as to get in
from four to six meetings day.
Saturday the general will make a
partial day of rest, holding only one
meeting, but making up for 1t by
holding an extra number of meetings
on Sunday.
General Booths continued vigor
amazes his followers. Though he
is slightly lame from an injury he
received on his last American trip
nothing seems too fatiguing. He is
the first up in the morning and the
last to bed at night, and his day is as
crowded and active as can be i'm
agined. He believes that the auto.
mobile campaign, by keeping him out
in the open air, will result in much
physical benefit.
The general says he will do nc
scorching, and will not let any OF
his assistants get up over high speed
General Booth Is leaving out London
on the trip, but takes on nearly all
the other English cities in the West
and Midlands. He will finally make
pause at Aberdeen.

Colonel ]. J. Anderson. assistant

Colonel Anderson says 81 find no
thing in the charter which would
prevent the city, by resolution, from
giving the 7. r. & P. company the
right to furnish power or light in
the section indicated We are not
in favor of violating the charter. but
can't hew to the line too closely on
account of possible injury to the
school,"
1t is understood that a resolution
in accordance with Colonel Ander-
sons opinion will be introduced In
the council next Wednesday night.
If such is the case, the resolution
Will be strongly opposed by some of
the councilmen. Some of the mem
bers hold that the T. r. G. P. cannot
legally sell power in a section not
covered by it's franchise, and the
charter prohibits the sale of eleltric
current for lighting.

doing the structure any damage All
that was left for the trustees to do
was to put jacks under the building
and put in proper foundation, let
the church down in place, and the
work was done. Some of the brethren
looked incredulous while DR.. Har-

TO START A BALKY HORSE.
Pat Him on the Head, Tap His Feet
Sing Instead of Swearing at Him.

For the benefit of those who have
been caused great deal of anxiety by
a balky horse, lost trains as well as
tempers, and even sometimes ruined the
horse, / will give your readers a remedy
which, no matter how bad he is, will
start such horse ninety mine times in
a hundred. OF course, it may fail one
time in q hundred. When a horse
balks, no matter how badly he sulks or
how ugly he is, do not beat him; don't
throw sand in his ears; don't use rope
on his forelegs or even burn straw
under him. Quietly go and pat him on
the head a moment; take a hammer or
even pick up a stone in the street; tell
the driver to sit still, take his lines,
hold them quietly while you lift up
either front foot; give each nail light
tap and good smart tap ON the frog;
drop the foot quickly, and then chirp to
him to go. In ninety-nine cases out of
a hundred the horse will go right about
his business, but the driver must keep
his lines taut and not pull or jerk him
back. If have tried this once have
tried it 500 times, and every time /
have suggested it people have laughed
and even bet S. and bottles of wine
that could not do it. So far l have
won every bet This may make you
smile, but a horse has more common
sense than most people are willing to
give him credit for. The secret of this
little trick is sirlply diversion. am
firm believer that with kindness and
proper treatment horse can be driven
with string. g.-Horseshoers' Journal.

AS TO MINING NEWS.
Not Pen Pictures but Information Is
What Capitalists Want.

The greatest fault to be found with
the general run of mining news as it
appears in print to-day, is its tendency
to depart from facts and figures, and
resort to adjectives and general de-
scription. Definite information is sell.
dom given. Instead of glittering gen.
eralities and superlative terms describ-
ing splendid prospects, etc., details as
to the property should be given. Among
these the title to the property and the
incumbrance on it are of the first
Importance. So, also, the extent of the
ore and the actual state of development
work should be set forth. Of recent
years much mining news has degener-
ated into an attempt to jolly up the
public with shot air" and gush. Any one
may attract mob of curious idle people
by shouting, but what good can this
do? The cautious capitalist seeks an
entirely different source of informa-
tion.-Pacific Coast Miner.

TO REGULATE SALE
OF shoppY GOODS.

The National Live Stock Association
and the National Wool Growers AS
sociation, soon to meet in Portlan O.,
Oregon, are urging legislation to regu-
late the use of shoddy in manufactured
goods. A bill to this end has been in
troduced in Congress by Representa-
tive Grosvenor of Ohio. Its principal
requirement is that manufacturers
shall stamp their goods so as to show
the percentage of shobby contained
therein. in like manner as the manu-
facturers of oleomarearine, liquors,
cigars and tobacco are compelled to
stamp their products. Flockmasters
are requested to write individually to
their Representatives and Senators at
Washington. urging the passage of the
bill.
While this enactment is being sought
more directly by the wool growers, says
the Sacramento Bee, it is certainly in
the public interest. as buyers of goods
presumed to be woolen have the right
to be protected against imposition
through the substitution of shoddy.
Shoddy, as known to the trade in
woolen goods. is felt made up from
material resulting from the tearing Of
old woolen or partly woolen cloth into
shreds by machinery. 1t cannot be
woven as are cloths made from woolen
yarn, and so does not stand wear.
An enormous quantity Of shoddy is
annually made in the United States
and used by manufacturers OF cheap
cloths and clothing. While there is a
legitimate sale for such poor material
as its actual market value, just as there
is for the cheap butter substitute known
as oleomargarine, consumers have right
to know what they are buying, and no
genuine business interest can be in.

off at the point, he entertained large
number of Elkoites for a couple Of

After harassing the bulls to get them
mad, the great toreador showed his
agility by lodging the slow rushes of

In case the plans of the Chief OF the

see, soraked and scraped for mules of all
classes and ages as at the present time.
Not only are the farmers, who raise
and those who feed, sure of handsome
profits, but the dealer counts Oh wide
and sure margin. These latter come
here from all parts of the country to
buy anything of the long.eared type
from our smallest colt to the fancy
teams and high priced jacks. Choice
colts are selling at $50 to 800, while
fancy teams bring $3.50 to 5000.
Good-sized 2.year-old mules are put
to work and do good service until %
years old, and are not subject to disease.
Mules are more easily broken to work
than horses, and who ever heard of
team of mules running away and tear
ing things up? If they run. it is
very short and wild run.
Who ever saw balky mule? No
team will carry buggy along smoother
and nicer than span of small, WELL
broken mules. In fact, $500 span of
mules will do more work than a $500
pair of horses.
The mule is easily raised, easily
broken to work, docile, trusty, hardy

teamster has in the way of work ami
