THE FAILURES IN APRIL
THEY RUN REMARKABLY LIGHT,
BOTH IN NUMBER AND IN
TOTAL LIABILITIES.

Commercial failures during the month of April.
as reported by R. G. Dun & Co., were only 1888
in number and $s,056, s66 in amount of liabi-
ties, much better exhibit than was made dur
1g the corresponding month last year, when
there were lob defaults involving $13,136, SIS.
Manufacturing 1nsolvencies were 1874 against 264
year ago, and the defaulted Indebtedness Of
Trading failures numbered GIG against $50, and
liabilities of S3,646 1928 compared with 5,S15,-
1902 In addition there were % defaults OF
brokerage, real estate, insurance and other con-
Germs not properly included with the two prin-
cipal divisions, compared with SO in this class
last year, while defaults of $527, 478 compared
with So, O96, 063. Thus, every commercial di-
vision showed striking improvement COM
pared with the same month in 1904. Aside
$1,559, 900, while in the corresponding week
of 1904 there were 16 fduciary defaults with an
aggregate indebtedness Of 81, 1857 900.
These statistics indicate that April an
exceptionally prosperous month, for the aggre
gate of defaulted indebtedness was not only
SIS, 600, 900 less than in the corresponding month
last year, but fell below the monthly total for
one other month made better exhibit since
July, 1902, or almost three years ago. In ad

HOW TO LOCATE SPRINGS
Indians and Frontiersmen Learn MUCH
from Signs and Observations.

Cassier 8 Magazine.
There is undoubtedly a practica!! art
of discovering springs. Indians OF IRON.
tiersmcn can find water IN the aesets
cans and experienced prospectors can
similarly find ore. These arts consist
mainly in the recognition Of superficial
signs which escape the ordinary op-
server.
It is not necessary that the operator
should consciously note these signs sep
arately and reason upon them. NO doupt
he frequently does SO, tho. he may not
give away the secret OF his method 20
ognizes by association and memory che
presence Of group of indications, great
or small, which he has repeatedly found
to attend springs or ore deposits.
This skill, due to habit, is often al
most unerring for g given limited dis
trict, but under new cond1t1ons It
breaks down. Old miners from Cali
] fornia or Australia have often made IN
other regions the most foolish and hope
less attempts to find gold, because they
thought this or that place looked Just
like some other place in which they
had mined successfully.
Apart from the magnetic minerals,
there is no proof that ore deposits ex-
hibit their presence and nature by any
attraction or other active force. With
regard to water, however, there may be
an action affecting the temperature and
moisture of the OVERLAPPING surface.
| Even, here, however, it seems more like.
Ily that such effects are manifested vis.
/ iblv to a close observer rather than by
4 direct system. The favorite fields FOL
water OWNERS are regions in which
water is abundant, but not gathered
upon given horizons OF impermeable
strata underlying porous rocks.

VALUE OF THE AUX
Stuffed Specimen Of Extinct Bird Com
ing to America.

The authorities of an American mu-
scum have just paid Rowland Ward 400
guineas for the specimen OF the great
auk-or Alca impeunis, to give it the
name by which it is known in scientific
circles. The Great aux immeasurabiy In.
creased the Importance both of itself
and its eggs when it joined the dodo
in the realms Of the extinct, and it's
market value is ever on the upward
grade. The stuffed speciment shows
that the great aux, or garefowl, as 1t
is sometimes called, was fairly big
bird, perhaps the size of a. Michaelmas
goose, and it had an expanse OF white
bosom Of a spotlessness which would ex-
cite the envy Of a German waiter. 1t
had white splash over each eye, but
it's head, it's webbed feet and its ele-
gant-shaped back were almost black.
Some interesting particulars of his life
and habitat are to be found in Lydek--
ker's "Royal Natural History from
which we take the following passage:
"Confned to the North Atlantic, and
ranging as far north as Iceland on
the one side and Greenland on the
other, the great aux was migratory
species, which in winter wandered as
| far south as the Bay OF Blscay and the
shores of Virginia.
uBoth in Greenland and Norway it
appears to have been always rare; and

three rocky islands near Iceland, known
as the Garefowl Skerries or Geirfug-
lasker, and Funk island off the New
| foundland coast. By the subsistence in
the spring of 1880 of one of these islets,
/ which, as being the most inaccessible,
was the favorite breeding place, the
birds were driven to one nearer the
shore, where they were more easily APP
nroached. and in the course of the
next fourteen years the species became
extinct in Europe, the last pair having
been killed in the summer of 1874.
The existence of the garefowl on Funk
island was discovered about 1884, when
the birds were so numerous as to be
reckoned, it is said, by thousands; ouS
lincessant persecution for more than two
centuries eventually brought about Its
determination, which probably to .oi
place almost contempOraneously Win
it's disappearance from Europe. On Funk
island It was customary for the crews
of several vessels to spend the summer
for the sole purpose OF killing gare-
fowl for the sake Of their feathers:

bling daylight that child easily de-
tects the difference.
The incandescent lamp does not in
any sense initiate daylight. There are
three principal reasons for this: The
lamp is too small, too red, and too hot,
and yet the development Of all forms Of
light, especially during the past twenty
years, shows a positive tendency, even
with such poor means at command,
to attempt with them to initiate day
light, first, by spacing small units In
long rows; secona,. by striving to make
the color of the light approach a true
white; and third, by endeavoring to res,
duce the heat.
The spots of light-arcs and in
candescents-now. in general use are
merely relics Of barbarism,' having
descended to us from the torches OF
our savage ancestors. Surrounding
given area with, say, one hundred spots
of light, each one of which, like an ins
candescent lamp, for instance, is made
up OF many parts, is in no way COM
parable, either theoretically or practi-
cally, with a simple straight tube con-
sisting of but one element-the tube.
Probably IS per cent of all the artifi-
clal light one sees in walking down
a busy metropolitan thorofare at night
spots-not rows-ciearly points the way
for the new form Of light-namely, one
continuous tube of uniform brilliancy
thruout it's entire length, which length
may be almost anything desired from
a few inches to hundreds Of feet and
constituting a form of light radically
different from the heretofore we'll
known systems.
These first commercial vacuum-tube
installations represent simply the be-
ginnings of new large industry, since
the underlying principles of this form
of light are such that in its final de-
velopment it's field will be even greater
than that now occupied by the mean
descent lamp. They prove the gem
scheme; nevertheless it should be mem
toned that the difficulties met with in
initial work Of this character were
enormous, requiring hundreds of inven-
lions and extending from a new form of
glassblower s fire to the handling of the
chemical under commercial conditions.
'That this system of vacuum-tube
lighting initiates daylight more closely
than has ever before been done cannot
be questioned, and that the imitation OF
daylight should be the final goal admits
of no argument. 1t is interesting to
note that all forms Of light since the
beginning of the world have gradually:
drifted thru evolution to this different
artificial light, the most salient OF
, which are diffusiveness, color, absence
|, of heat, efficiency, steadiness, safety,
,, no vitiation of the atmosphere, SIM
, plicity, and life unlimited

Winnipeg, May 6.-The Canadian west is re-
joicing in thick blanket of wet snow on the
freshly-sown wheat, that all fear of a dry.
season seems to be past. In some sections the
snow was accompanied by high winds that did
little damage in isolated cases, but the sea-
son is so early that these easily be re-
placed and the main thing is abundance OF
moisture to start the wheat growing. The wealth
err is turning warmer and the snow melting
rapidly. Practically all the wheat Is In and
sowing of coarse grains, particularly In the
Northwest Territories. The outlook now is for
an exceedingly good crop season. The mar
kets continue very dull, export trade Is
light, Winnipeg prices being still above export
basis, altho there has been an improvement In
that direction during the week, and any further
drop in prices would help export. Thirteen loads
of Manitoba wheat were worked for export on
Thursday, and the announcement was 1mme-
diately followed by more active bidding on
options, but cash wheat slow.
With the passing Of the months the estimate
of the 1904-1905 crop at 55, 900 blu is being
steadily confirmed. Up to date 33, $50 600 blu
have passed inspection, 220 900 have been marked
in Winnipeg, some 100000 are in transit not
inspected and on May 5,s5O,000 bu were
a total Of 4O,12O,OOO already marketed, and
adding the allowance of 7,14224O bu for seed
and 3,750000 for bread. it brings the total
accounted for up to 81, 012, 240 bu and leaves
