The Future New York.

Greater New York will have a
population of 6,IoI $50 in 1920, ac-
cord;ng to a sober prediction
made by an engineer of national
reputation. By the figures on
which he bases his estimate this
means an increase in the pOpula
ton of the metropolis Of 2,357,25I
inhabitnts. If one can imagine a
monster city as large as London
with all its environs, a city cap
able of containing the combined
populations OF Paris, Berlin, s.
Petersburg, Dublin, Butte, Mont,
and Paterson, n. J., or, to take an
other view, a city with a popula-
ton within 100000 as large as
that of the state of Pennsylvania,
or one as large as the combined
population of Alabama, Indiana,
Wyoming, North Dakota and Ha-
wall, one may obtain an idea OF
the immensely expressed in these
seven figures. If we add to this
the possibilities of a series OF
wonderful transportation sys-
TENS, uniting almost within the
hour New York and Philadelphia,
with its increased population OF
100000. in practically one i'm
mense municipality, with chain
of big Jersey cities, ike Jersey
City with 45o, oco, Newark with
100000, Elizabeth with 10000,
and a score Of smaller places, we
may have vision Of the future
more marvellous than the dreams
of the most daring romancer.

assina of Messenger BOYS.

From present indications the
messenger boy, so far as Wall
street is concerned, will soon be a
mere memory. The financial dis
trict is looked upon by these gray
suited MercurieS as sinecure,
and it is. All the trouble has
arisen over the fact that several
Wall street commission mer-
chants, members of the Produce
exchange, are putting in a new
machine which will do away with
the messenger boy service be
tween the telegraph office and the
brokers' sanctum. There is
sending machine and a receiving
machine. One is placed in the
brokers' Office, the other in The
telegraph office. If at the head
quarters of the telegraph eonpa-
ny a message is to be sent, il is
written upon the sending ma
chine and Immediately appears
upon a tape in the Office OF the
broker for whom tie telegram is
intended. In a short time this
method OF sending and receiving
messages in the financial district
will be in universal use. and the
day of the messenger boy viii be
at an end.

Joke on Senator Blackburn.

Senator Joe Blackburn'S po-
likeness was disastrous TO him on
one occasion. He was making a
trip 10 the mountains III the east
ern part of Kentucky, and made
his stopping place a farm house
at a remote point from the city.
On the day OF his arrival he was
rather late for dinner, and the lady
of the house aoologized for the
coffee. which a. that tirnc was
lukewarm. "Oh. / do not mind II
in the least, madam. said Senator
Blackburn; Il really prefer my
coffee cold. YOU know. Ii was
served cold during the reminder
,of his two weeks stay.

THE MONTANA MEETING.


OF tomorrow's meeting OF Montana
Tonopah shareholders the Tonopah sun
says:
IT Is conjectured that the meeting

reasons, chief among these being the
recent and unaccountable slump In the
price OF the stock within about "a
week II tumbled from somewhere
around $3.50 to $40. In the great
stampede TO sell, a number OF the small
stockholders parted with their hold

and with good reason, that there are at
least 100000 I'm the treasury and as
every one expects a dividend to be de-
clared at salt Lake, the fan Of the
stock Is generally regarded AZ being
the result Of shllfu manipulation.
Others are OF the opinion that the

existed between the Knox and the Nor
ris factions Of -Tonopah have
eliminated In an open rupture, and that

troll has resulted I'M the hommering OF
