ly dispense the clouds.
When a Paducahan carrying an
umbrella met fellow townsman Ed
Leigh on the street this morning with
his shoes shined and devoid of pro-
lection against the weather, he ad-
monished the exile that 1t would rain
in a few minutes because 1t had been
raining every few days since he could
remember.
1T will not rain much longer" re-
piled the governors secretary. con
fidently.
Why" asked the Paducahan.
Governor Beckham is coming this
evening and he always brings fair
weather" was the reply.
He had scarcely spoken before the

faces.

ments.

Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 24.-Attorney
General Morris Brown is the man who
is getting the credit for throttling the
grain trust in Nebraska. Farmers are
quick to note that they are already
getting an increase of from l to cents
a bushel on their products. The wave
of popularity following the death
blow to the trust seems likely to sweep
Mr.. Brown into the United States
senate. He is not an avowed candi-
date for the senatorship, but will be
willing to serve if he is chosen. He
is the man who won the victory for
Nebraska in the federal court, in the
state s contention with the railroads
over the proper basis of taxation.
Mr., Brown was originally an Iowa
man, and his parents still reside at Dies
Moines. He was born on farm in
jackson county, Iowa, May 2, 1863.
In 1887, when he was % years of age,
he was admitted to the Iowa bar. The
next year he went to Kearney, Neb.,
where he became successful lawyer.
| Tho defeated in the race for congress
| man from the sixth district in 1898, he
put up a stiff fight in the hopeiessiy
fusion district and had the satisfaction
of causing his opponent to fall far be-
hind the usual majority. He was for
two years county attorney Of Buffalo

under Attorney General Prout, and
four years later was unanimously
elected to the post of attorney general

sHuL CITY ADVANCES
AS A TIN PRODUCER
Operations at South Dakota Town Make
Future Success Assured. -

:, Hill City, s. D., Feb. 24.-The pros
poets that this section of the country
will soon become an actual producer Of
tin are growing brighter every day.
There has never been any doubt Of the
abundance Of ore in this district, and
had it not been for the unfortunate ex-
lperience Of one mining company sew
eral years ago which put damper on
prospective investors, the tinmines
would long since have been producers.
The test run at the Gertie is proving
very satisfactory. Altho the mill has
been running only ten shifts, yet the
superintendent is more than satisfied
with the showing made.
The rock is proving to carry a larger
amount Of tin than was expected, and
as soon as the best method Of treatment
is fully determined upon, the mill 5
capacity will be increased ten times its
present amount. The price Of tin has
risen in the past year from % cents tt
86 cents pound. The ores Of the Ger
tie and neighboring properties arr
among the richest in the world.
