BOYS LUCKY FIND.
Discovered SIS, 1000 in Gold in an Old
Dutch Oven.

Holdenville, I. T., Feb. 17.-Louis
Lola, a boy IS years old, discovered an
earthen oven on the farm of Edward
Gilmore. IS miles south of this place,
in which there was $4,000 in gold, all of
it in tens and twenties.
The boy is an orphan. He was clear
ing some ground when his ak glanced
against an old root and struck the
earthen oven of Dutch pattern. lie
dug it up and opened it. The boy was
shrewd enough to keep his discovery
to himself, and for several days did
not mention it. He finally intimated
it to Mrs. Gilmore, who finally got the
whole story from him. But the boy
Immediately disappeared and did not
return for five days. When he returned
he had hidden the money, and refuses
to tell where it is.
The only clue to the treasure is
story that was told by some parties
who made repeated search for hidden
money in this vicinity several years
ago. They said that money had been
hidden there by a train robber, who
had received it as his share of booty
and buried it there by the side of an
old trail on the Canadian river. He
was afterward arrested, convicted and
sent to the penitentiary. He told his
attorney about the money and describ-
ed to him as well as he could where it
was located. This attorney caused sew
eral searches to be made, but it re-
manned for the boy to discover it.

THE COLLAPSE OF THE GREAT COTTON CORNER.
From King of the Market,
SuIIy has Dropped to
Comparative Insignif-
icance.

Aside from Japan and Russia, two
other world powers have had lot OF
trouble within the last two weeks
Daniel ]. Sully has been torpedoed
several times, and Colonel William r.
Brown of New Orleans has been sub
5ected to such heavy fire that tnere
was some fear he would sink
The war In the far east has been no
more active or sensational for some
persons than the war in the coluoH
market. Practically, however, lne COY
ton conflict is ended, for with the col
lapse of the paper pyramid raised py
Sully and Brown there is little likell-
hood of another attempt this season TO
control the staple. az
A sheer drop of 5 cents a pound-$25
a baIe-narked the breaking OF the
cotton corner. Never before in the ms
tory of cotton was there such brenen-
dous decline within so short Ifne-
The wonder is that the New Orteafls'
New York and Liverpool markets We're
not strewn with wrecks. Had the
bears been as merciless in pressing
their advantage as were the bulls when
they controlled the market, there rs
little doubt many weak hrins Woulo
have been pushed to the wall.
From being the most prominent ana
powerful figure in the cotton world,
Sully dropped in a few days to com
paratfVe insignificance. Two weeks ago
he could have boosted prices 100 points
1
week Re had to fight like the fuFies TO
save his followers from being over
whelmed. It was a sadly dishgured
and crippled lot of bulls that came out
of the storm.
History but repeats itself in the cot
ton Market No man has made for
tune out of cornering cotton and held
If. Few cotton corners have been sue
cessful. Ranger, Landauer, Runge,
Innnan I.abouisse, Price and others cor
nered the market and seemed to have
the world by the tail" but just when
they appeared to be most powerful the
whole structure collapsed.
Theoretically it is a simple thing 10
corner cotton if the crop is smaller
than the worlds requirements and you
have millions of dollars at your com
Inand. Practically it is impossible TO
do so unless you have the wealth of the
Rockefellers at your back, and even
then there is a chance that you VIII be
left holding the bag.
The great trouble the man who at
fempts to corner cotton encounters Is
that more than 50 per cent of the trans
actions on the cotton exchanges are not
in cotton, but in paper. thousands OF
men who buy and sell cotton or rather
s'uaper' cotton, would not know a cotton
F,oII' from q cheese sandwich. The pub
lie is bullish naturally. When some
great specuIatOr who realizes that cotton
Is selling below it's real value and VINO
knows the crop is short starts to corner

LABOR'S TRIBUTE.
Leaders Unite in PraIsing Work
of Senator Hanna.

Indianapolis, Ind, Feb. 17.-President
Mitchell of the United Mine Workers
of America has sent a personal tele-
gram of coincidence to Mrs. Hanna
saying that in Senator Hanna's death
labor had lost sincere friend. Mr..
Mitchell said today:
The death of Senator Hanna is
distinct loss to the cause of industrial
peace. The latter years of his life
were given to the promotion of the
work of reconciling the interests of
employer and employe. I enjoyed the
friendship of Senator Hanna, and to
an unusual degree his confidence in
matters of this kind, and 1 know of
many things he has done, of many
sacrifices he has made, in the interest
of organized Workingmen, for which he
neither sought nor received credit. His
efforts as chairman of the National
Civic Federation brought him into close
relationship with nearly all the trade
union movements. and he had the trust
and the respect of all of them"
William D. Huber, president of the
United Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners, said:
In the death of Senator Hanna I
feel that this country has lost one of
It's greatest statesmen and leaders; one
whose loss will be felt among all men;
one who dared to do and say what he
thought was right, irrespective of what
the opposition might contend for He
had done much toward bringing about
amicable relations and the settlement
of disputes between employer and en-
ploye, and was the staunchest friend
that trade unionists had in the political
arena
President James Lynch of the Inter-
national Typographical union said;
Occupying such a commanding po-
sition in public life, Senator Hanna
welded an influence that was prolific
in results. and his tolerant and rea-
sonable attitude on the questions that
are causing strife between capital and
labor created a better feeling and a
better understanding on the part of
the disputants and the public general
~. The sentiment thus created will
not die with Senator Hanna 1t will
live longer than the remembrance of
his political victories"

DID HANNA KNOW.
He Seemed to Have Premonition Of
Approaching End.

Washington, Feb. 7.-Representative
VIM. Alden Smith of Michigan relates
touching incident of a. recent con-
versation he had with Senator Hanna.
He went to Senator Hanna in the sem
ate chamber one day and invited him
to attend, as one of the distinguished
men of the country, the semi-centennial
celebration of founding of the Republi-
can party, to be held at Jackson, Mich,
on July next.
II don't know where 1 will be then"
was the senator's pathetic reply to the
invitation.
"Why, you will be right here, of
course returned Representative Smith.

No. replied Mr.. Hanna. I'm afraid

live long. The impression made by his
words never left me-"

THEY WON'T GIVE UP.
Ralston Yeast Company Lost Much
in Fire but Will Resume.

The Ralston Yeast company, which
leased quarters on the fifth floor of the
Parkhurst-Davis building, is one of the
fire losers which has not been prom
inently mentioned. This concern lost
all its machinery and stock, and had
81 900 insurance. The books of the
company were in the vault and were
uninjured.
L. c. Betz, manager of the Ralston
company, said today.
I'VE will open up again as soon as we
can get material and rent a room. 1
have had three hard knocks lately but
have one more fight in me and will try
it again. About a year ago 1 fell on
the icy pavement and was confined at
the hospital for several months with a
broken leg. I was just out on crutches
when the flood caught US in our build
ing near the city park. We then moved
to the fifth floor of the Parkhurst-
Davis building. The fire left nothing
but our books. However, we expect to
be able to commence making pancake
flour in about ten days and yeast in 80
DAYS."

this wedding the market was left to men
with long purses. Those who have suf-
fered by the crash can afford it. The
marvel of the whole affair is that so
many lambs We're spared.
Looking backward now critics Of the
market say Sully, Brown and the others
identified with the bull campaign made
three cardinal mistakes. They underesti-
mated the crop, they overestimated their
power, and they began their campaign too
early. Skyrocketing prices from the be-
ginning OF the season is a new wrinkle
in the cotton business. Sully did it, and
until a few weeks ago it seemed he had
everything his own way Last year he
put through corner in mid-season and
then let go. Brown taking up the cam
paign where Sully gave it up. Brown en-
gineered a corner in the July option that
stands without a parallel in the history
of the market. He made millions, but it
is an open secret that he came within an
ace of being swamped-
1t will be long time before the cotton
market has such spectacular setting as
was furnished in the first month of 1904.
and it is likely to be a long time before
another effort is made to corner the crop
in mid-Season.-New York Press.

FORTUNE IS FOUND
After a Search of Twelve
Years. Duration.

New York, Feb. IA fortune in
high-class railroad bonds has been
found by the granddaughter and
heiress of Thomas Wilson, of West
chester after a search of twelve years.
When Wilson died no trace of his
wealth could be found, although he
was known to have had considerable
fortune, accumulated in building. Mrs.
Lizzie Pell his granddaughter, insti-
tuted immediate search but without
success until a safe deposit box was
found in his name in a Long Island
bank. 1t contained SIG, 500 in bonds of
high grade and papers showing the in
vestment elsewhere of a large sum,
estimated by some persons at $500, 900.

FIREMEN GET A REST.
Their Work on Parkhurst-Davis
Ruins Ended.

Tuesday night the tired firemen of
the Topeka department took the first
good nights rest they have had since
the big fire of Saturday. Day and
night for four days the firemen have
been working by shifts throwing water
into the Smouldering mass of ruins
One or two men are sick from exposure
and overwork, and several others are
suffering with sore eyes, due to smoke
and dust.
Monday afternoon Street Commits
sioner Snyder stopped the sewer which
has been carrying off the water from
the ruins, and in a short time the
basement was pretty thoroughly flood
ed. This course of treatment did much
to check the blaze, and at noon Tues
day Chief Wilmarth took off one of
the two remaining streams of water.
Last evening the last remaining stream
was taken off, and the men all went to
quarters for the night Watchmen
were stationed at the building to notify
the fire department in case anything
seemed to be going wrong. There Is
still a good deal of fire in some parts
of the basement where the walls have
BILE stuff. This fire will have to be
extinguished gradually as the debris is
removed from the basement.
Men will go to work as soon as the
Insurance adjustors have inspected the
building to remove the debris from the
basement 1t will not take the adjus-
tors long to complete their work. There
is no question about the loss, and about
all there is to do is to pay over the
money to the losers.
Fire Marshal Wilmarth will not tear
down any more of the damaged willis,
but he has notified the owners of the
buildings to look out for their own
walls, and save what portions of them
they are able.
Acting upon this PLAINTIFF Sells build
ing has been taken in hand by NJ
Heery, who is building scaffolding at
the rear of the building for the pur-
pose of repairing the rear wall, which
has cracked and is liable to fall. The
work of cleaning out the debris viii
begin as soon as possible.

the rag-tag of the army of outsiders, who
always believe they are going to make
fortune in some way or other. The vol
urne of speculation from this source is
immense 1t is so great that it takes the
market ballooning out of the control of
legitimate traders. Just as long as the
number of new buyers attracted by the
spectacular splurge is sufficient to OFFSET
the selling of those who want to reap
Profits, the balloon keeps ascending but
the higher the price the fewer the buy
ers. Then comes the day when some
thing happens that makes every one
want to sell and no one want to buy.
This season the something appeared in
the form of an announcement that Sully
was going on a vacation. That started
the slump.
Had it not been for the conservatism of
old-establfShed cotton houses thousands of
persons would have been ruined when
the collapse in prices came Weeks ago,
when speculation was rampant and fiuc-
tuations began to be violent. margins of
S. a bale were demanded from all those
who were in the market. This weeded
out the timid and the financially weak.
It takes man of nerve to put up a $500
margin to deal in 100 bales of cotton. BY
