New York, Dec 30--Henry Clews
has issued lengthy letter regarding
lihe business conditions of The year
Just ending. carefully reviewing the
Industrial and commercial interests
and concluding with forecast for the
coming year, which follows:
What are the prospects for 1902
This is the question Of chief concern.
| A year ago we said that the outlook
depended chiefly upon the credit sit
uated and the crop outlook: that If
! there was no Over-eXtension of the
! one and no shortage of the other, we
might confidently look forward to an.
other year Of good business. Events
have proved the correctness of this
view and the principal signs of re-
action visible are those produced By
the strain upon the money marke.
which began to develop last August.
The outlook for 1907. however. is
much more complicated than II was
for 1906. We are now upon a still
higher plane Of values and there Is
much imitation in commodities. securi-

He Hit the eookmaker.

Patrick Murphy had an afternoon
off. so he thought he would go out to
see the horse races.
Pat had heard about the fortunes
made at the race track so he thought
he would try his luck. He went down
stairs before every race, but didn't
find any odds that suited him until
the last race. 1t was a large gray
horse. l don't remember its name,
hut it suited Pat all right, for 1t had
50-1 after it.
Pat put up his dollar and went up
stairs to see the race. His horse won
by. a neck. Pat hurried downstairs
with a lively step to cash in his
check.
1t was the last race of the day and
the bookmaker was anxious to get
rid of his silver, therefore Pat was
paid with silver dollars.
Pat stood there few minutes fun,
bling over his handful of silver dol
lars, when the bookmaker hollered:
whats the matter, Irish? Don't you

Belief In WANDERING Elves.

Piskies, pixies, or pigseys, are a
tribe of elves peculiar to old Cornwall,
England, territory once extending
to the eastern edge of Dartmoor,
which is still included in the duchy.
They are not elemental spirits, but in
material life were those of the Celtic
tribes who refused to give up their
ancient religion for Christianity, but
otherwise lived blameless; hence
their sympathy with humanity. Not
good enough for heaven, nor bad
enough for hell, their wandering souls
haunting their own familiar moor.
lands, wooded coombes and waste
sea beaches.

GOOD DESERT LAW.
RIGHT OF "SQUARE" MAN TO

II with Good Argument-Pros-
pector's Calling Admittedly
Tough Came"

1t was in the camp of Bullfrog that
Mitchell, the big. brick-red mining
man of Nevada, told his view of law
on the desert:
IF you are prospecting with an un
reasonable hog of a partner who VIZ is
to eat three slices of bacon and hall
loaf of bread for breakfast and lets
the canteen gurgle down his throat
while you get along with a strip OF
bacon and just moisten your lips
when you take a drink, then you're
all right if you kill him. I'd kill him
If there wasn't anything else to do
It's a tough game and it's your life
or his when you're lost or your grub
stake and water are giving out"
These observations were suggested
by the arrival in camp two days be-
fore of the bones of prospector who
had died of thirst some 40 miles from
Bullfrog during the previous summer
He had been a carpenter, earning
wages of eight dollars day in the
new camps during the boom" but
the gold fever led him away from
this safe and profitable toll He
picked up a partner, they loaded their
burros and trailed off south toward
the Death valley country to prospect
in the Funeral range.

lowed them up the partner wandered
into a freighters' camp half crazed
with thirst and exhaustion. He was
able to tell the freighters that the
carpenter was somewhere out beyond,
lost and without water, too helpless
to move The partner was too weak
and fevered to go back with the res
cue party of freighters, so they left
him in camp He directed them as
we'll as he could, but the search was
bootless and Griffin, the carpenter of
Bullfrog, was added to the long list
of desert victims. Several months
later a party of prospectors tumbled
by chance across what was left of
him. There was no traces of his out
fit; he had thrown away his gun, his
canteen and his hat. One shoe was
found 80 feet from his body and he
had torn off and flung away most OF
his clothing. These were the CHASTITY
evidences of the last great fight he
had made to struggle on.

said Mitchell, who knew the desert
game" they throw away everything

you generally find them without a
