is said that the young are found only
i'm the Mediterranean. How the ma
ture ones learned the attractions of
summer at the New England coast re-
sorts is to be guessed by those who
have active imaginations, and how the
fish find their way over here year after
year is equally puzzling.
They come and feed on the squid,
young mackerel and other objects Of
interest that they encounter. This fat
tening diet moves them along to a
weight Of sometimes as much as 500
pounds With their swords and their
amazing powers of locomotion they
have no fear of anything, and they lie
on the top of the ocean as serene as II
there was nothing else i'm creation. The
big black dorsal fin waves gracefully
to and fro in the air as the fish lies
there. and often the tail sticks out al

TENS, and possibly one. In the East

tofore unattached are gradually being
absorbed, this including Ontario and
Western and Buffalo. Rochester and
Pittsburg. In the Middle West the
newly organized Cincinnati, Hamiltan
and Dayton-Pere Marquette systems,
the Chicago Great Western and the
Wisconsin Central are sure to be taken
in by the larger systems, although it
may be a year or two before history
can record the work as accomplished.
In the foregoing enumeration no men,

clearly defined. There is no escape
from the conclusion that it is destined
to be annexed to the New York Cen

cess of joint ownership or joint con-
troll, either directly or through the
agency employed in the absorption of
Reading, Chesapeake and Ohio and
Norfolk and Western.
The certain working out of the trans

PUBLIC CONFIDENCE IN STABILITY
OF BUSINESS SITUATION
Trade and Industrial Reports Are on An Improv-
ing Scale
BY w. G. NICHOLAS.

New York, Oct. There continues
to be broad and vigorous stock mar
ket, to which condition there are sew
eral contributing causes. The first and
most important of these is the receint
of a flood of favorable home-strAtcb
crop estimates. Latest returns from
the agricultural sections indicate a
much better yield Of corn than the ex-
perts prophesied, while the harvest re-
turns show unusually heavy weight
wheat and oats to offset any dimin-
ished yield there may be in bushels
Everything else raised out of the
ground appears to be in more than or
binary quantity. Trade and industrial
reports are also on an improving scale.
Approximations of a money furry dur
ing the winter have quoted down, and
the presidential campaign is going to
close without developing any disturb
ing features. Public confidence in the
staplllty of the business situation is
growing more pronounced every day.
Those who looked for important and
long continued reaction in stock prices
after the big advance, extending over
a period of three months. have so far
been disappointed Indications point
dlstinctively the other way. and new
buyers are appearing every minute
Ihere has undoubtedly been some real
lzlng on speculative lines of securi-
ties, but the market holds well. and is

After swordish is sighted the next
thing to do is to keep him in sight an

fast as to run past at first Some
times the fish sees her and quickly
sinks himself out of sight, but usually
he stands by and the only trick is to
keep the eye on him. The vessel comes

SAVAGE BOAT BUILDERS.
south Sen Islanders Who Can Build
Fine Craft.

From the Washington Post.
In the Marshall group of islands in
the south seas is a little atoll Of coral
known as Likieb atoll It is hundreds
of miles away from any other island
and the natives go half naked like the
other dwellers of the south seas. But
they have learned one great civilized
art, just the same. and that is the art
of building ships. About forty years
ago a Portuguese sailor was landed
there from a whaling ship. When his
vessel sailed away he remained behind,
for the lazy charm of the Pacific island
life had tempted him and he had de-
cided to leave the restless sea and live
the rest of his days on the warm, sleepy
beaches, where no one worked. Soon
he married the daughter of a chief and
became a trader. After many years an
American captain visited the Islands
during a trading voyage in the south
seas and when his vessel shortly after
ward became unseaworthy he set 10
work on the beach to build a new one.
The Portuguese whaler's two sons
helped him and learned a great deal
about the operation. The island had
fine, hard wood on II, just the kind Of
timber that shipbuilders value because
captain AT last succeeded In finishing
a good 40-ton schooner and sailed away
fin her. Before long the two boys had
begun TO teach the natives something
of what they had picked up and soon.
instead Of the primitive canoes and
dugouts that the Marshall islanders
have been using for centuries, the folk
Of the Likieb atoll began TO build ca

Gold Mining Developing.

Interest is more general now than for
many years in gold mining develop
ment An immense amount of capital
is being strongly stimulated. Many
attractive propositions are engaging
the attention of moneyed interests IN
every part of the country. The bust
ness is being gone into more intelli-
gently than ever before. This may be
attributed in part to the fact that at
no time has there been so many train
ed and capable engineers engaged in
the business. The technical schools
and colleges have been turning out
hundreds of splendidly qualified experts
of a kind TO command the respect and
Endorsement of substantial people who
need only to be shown where profit
lies to go after it. This new mining
development is not confined to any
small area. but extends all over the
Western mountain country, from the
Isthmus of Panama to- the Arctic
Zone.

Sugar to Go Up.

According to accepted Wall street
gossip. Sugar is programmed for
startling rise. It's total net earnings
are said to be in excess of $4,000, 600.
Not so very long ago the company
made a stock issue to buy sugar plan
tations in Cuba and to acquire con-
trolling interest in the beet sugar in
dustry. A report is current that in
addition to the sum realized from the
sale of the stock on that occasion the
company has put $2OO00,O0O to S25, 00O
600 additional into Cuban lands and
that to-day it owns practically every
acre of productive sugar area on that
island. Gossip has it that another stock
issue is impending, which will give TO
holders valuable rights and that in adj
dition thereto there will be special
distribution of a huge accumulation of
cash. On this latter point, there is
skepticism, and the wisest among the
specialists hold that stockholders will
be given their share of extraordinary
profits in the shape of a stock allot-
ment.

MAN IN UNCLE SANS
NAVY

4 am the happiest man in Uncle
SANS Navy. l must have got the
piles from always sitting on the guns,
for l have TO get on them to clean
them, as l am first-class gunner's
mate in the after turret.
Il could not do any work when ]
had the piles. my shipmates did il for
me. l certainly was in a bad condi-
ton; to-day there is no man aboard
the ship in better condition than I
am, and l can certainly thank Pyra-
mid Pile Cure for the world Of good
il has done me. l used so many diff
ferent medicines and spent lots of
money until | used this remedy; it
is the only one of the whole lot that
did me any good.
The first box nearly cured me, and
l don't think | ever felt happier in my
life that l thought l got the real stuff
at last. To make sure of "A cure l
used a number of boxes, also two
boxes of Pyramid Pills and one and
one-half boxes of Pyramid Ointment,
and l still have four boxes of Pyra-
mid Pile Cure left, that l keep in case
| meet anyone that is a sufferer of
piles. l thank Pyramid Pile Cure a
million times" julius A. Rooster, L.
s. Flagship Kearsarge.
The wonderful cures effected by this
remedy are subject for remark among
members on the medical profession
everywhere. a little book describing
the causes and cure of piles is publish
ed by the Pyramid Drug Co.. Mar
shall, Mich. and we advise every suf-
ferer to write for it. 1t is a singular
fact that one out of every four suf-
fers from this distressing complaint,
and another peculiar feature is that
it is no respecter of persons, attack
ing both those of high and of low de-
cree, the laborer and the millionaire,
the scrubWoman and the lady of fash
ion. We have pleasure in recommend
ing Pyramid Pile Cure to all such, as
it possesses merit, and since it is sold
by all druggists generally for the low
price of fifty cents a package a
prompt and speedy cure is easily with
in the reach of everyone.
The Savannah morning news., 1904-10-02

From the London Daily Mail.
The specialists must be divided into
two distinct classes-the surgeon prop
er and the pure physician. The for
mer unquestionably gets big fees in
ratio to his reputation. Sir Frederick
TreVes has only to name his fee to
the millionaire with appendicitis. With
the fear of death before his eyes he
will write his check gladly When he
has recovered he will often grumbe
if he does not boast A younger and
less known man will perform the same
operation for 1.-THE of the cost, but
the public, with death staring them in
the face, will have the man with the
big name, regardless of expense.
But the pure physician is an entire
ly different matter. His fees are
standardized, not by act of Parlia-
ment, but by that autocratic body the
Royal College of Physicians. His fees
for consultation at his own house are
fixed at two guineas the first visit
and a guinea for each subsequent one
For consultations away from home he
receives a fee at the calculated rate of
two-thirds of a guinea a mile. Els
tree. twelve miles out of town. is ipso
facto eight guineas; Liverpool 600
miles) is 1874 guineas, and so on pro
rata. But it must be remembered that
nowadays all the big provincial cen
ters have their own specialists, and
the town man is very seldom sent for,
unless he be one of the very biggest
names and the case desperate and
rich.
If the physician should accept more,
he trangresses that professional
fetch, medical etiquette" and is
branded a quack by his less lucky
brethren.
Moreover, when he arrives at suffi-
cient standing in the ranks of his pro-
fession. the Royal College of Physi-
clans will not elect him TO their all
important fellowship, the browning
qualification and highwater mark of
his calling.

nut. it has the valuable property of
growing harder as it grows older and
makes fine vessels Tools-all of them
of the best kind-wood for spars, etc,
are shipped to LilSieb atoll now from
New Zealand and the boats that are
turned out in the savage islands have
been compared with American and
English built vessels that have touched
at the place and found to be excellent
in every respect. The savage ship
builders have a queer scale of prices.
If "A chief wants a schooner of say
twelve tons, built for him, they charge
him 81 900 for it, but if a poorer per-
son wants the same kind of a vessel
they will charge many hundred dol
lars less They do this quite openly
and explain II by saying that the chief,
being rich, can afford to pay much
more than a poor person for the same
thing.

is entertained by a goodly section of
the tape players who take interest in
cotton that if the test should disclose
the fact that the public is lukewarm,
or likely to become lukewarm, an OPP
posite tack may be taken by the New
Orleans coterie, represented by the late
cotton king and that he will turn up
as bear leader instead of bull Mo
ses.

the report that Brown, the New Or

friends are behind Sully in his new

some skepticism, however, as to
whether it is genuine bull campaign
or not. The opinion is held by many
that the Sully demonstration is large

ascertain how strong the cotton-dealing
public feels in the face of the GER
