The Alaska prospector., 1906-12-13

The Chicago Inter Ocean speak ing of the widespread interest in copper at present says that an out put from Alaska ore deposits is eagerly looked for by consumers in hopes that it will lower the 3rice of copper. It says: In the UsAted States. the largest producing apun- try in the world, the chief mines are to all intent and purposes cleaned out of copper for four or five months to come, and big pro- dhcers in other parts of the world arc in much the safne position. Meanwhile users of copper appre- hend great danger were it not for the fact that this Alaska copper will be placed in the market SO soon and will in a measure, supply their wants.
 The development of the Alaska copper territory therefore becomes \ matter really of worldwide in- terest and the opening of this great field may mean the preven- ton of great copper famine. Fortunately these mines are so located that their product can be ,xpeditiously shipped to relieve the wants of the consumer in any part of h, world.

What the Gossips Did-A story comes
up from Uniontown OF a shattered
dream of connubial bliss; the sad con-
sequences Of an over.indulgencc in idle
gossip II seems that a wedding was to
have come of in that neighborhood on
Friday afternoon, between handsome
widow. with but nine children, and q
good looking widoweH with five, and
the sixteen hearts were soon to have
beat as one. but sixteen to one always
has been beaten). The wedding feast
was prepared, the guests had assembled,
congratulations and fluctuations were
rife all over the house and grounds, and
the bells were, relatively, pealing the
echoes OF happiness on all sides. Then
the gossips got in their deadly work
and the groom was the subject; they
told everything they knew surmised,
guessed, had heard, and thought, ought
to be so, and the ear of the prospective
bride was the one in which they poured
the deluge of their accumulated and
immoral horrors until the sheer force
of numbers and the constant reiteration
of the groom's impossibly bad record,
as then and there rehearsed, overcame
the abundance of her love for him and
she gathered her children and fled, re.
fusing to hear word of protest or
exculpation. And the gossips ate the
dinner, and gossipped the more.
