trade to raise itself to plane OF
such respecta1ility that saloons will
become something like clubs for men

The resolutions adopted by the con-

Rolled Burning Brother Down Hill

Presence of mind on the part of n ten-year-old brother last night saved seven-year-old Alfred Green of 97 Moore street probably from death by fire.
 With some companions the two bro thers were piling waste on a bonfire burning on 8 vacant lot near their homes. In the riot of fun the boys were dancing around the blazing refuse. One boy next to Alfred tripped and fell against the smaller boy, throwing him headlong in the flames. His clothing took fire on the instant and in the same moment his elder brother reached over, grabbed him by the skirt and car ried him to a nearby embankment. Starring him with a push from the top, the little chap rolled over and over to the bottom, extinguishing the flames.
 He was taken to Mount Sinai hos pital, where his burns were found to be superficial and not serious. The elder boy is the lion of the neighborhood.- Philadelphia Inquirer.

A Pessimistic Prophecy

After looking at every chance for Democratic success in 1908, figure up the situation as follows:
 With the prosperity wave on hand, the great expansion and progressive conditions of our country, the large in dependent Democratic vote, I see no chance to win even with antitrust, municipal or government ownership or tariff reform nailed to every plank of our platform.
 The 600,000 defeat of 1896 was fol lowed by one of S00,000 in 1900 and in creased to 2,O00,0O0 in 1904. A scar city of presidential timber is in sight. A ''has beeno who led us to defeat for eight years is again asking to be Gro decorated' and brought out for 1908.
 It means our defeat by 3,000,000 or more. That $ all.-Kansas City letter in the New York Sun.

Divorce in Other Countries

The absence of uniformity in the di- vorce laws of the different states is held responsible for much of the loose ness of the marriage tie. Undoubtedly a uniform divorce law would result ad- vantageously in the strengthening of the marriage bond, and would diminish the abuses of the present divorce sys- tenn.
 What shall we say, however, when it is learned that in countries besides our own the increase in divorce is alarm ingly greata It appears that this coun- try is not singular in the matter of the divorce evil In five years the number of divorces in Germany has risen from 4,675 to 6,S56, while in France in twen- ty-three years the number has leaped from 1,500 to more than 16,000. The figures of divorce in England indicate the same progressive use of the legal means of release from unsatisfactory marriages.
 It is evident that the evil of divorce is due to deeper cause than can be accounted for by the conditions peculiar to any one country.-Boston Globe.

Clairvoyant's Extraordinary Powers

Further information received in Lon don today of the remarkable achieve ments of John Floetrum, the boy clair voyant of Christiana, has increased in- terest in the ease.
 Floetrum has just discovered the body of a man who disappeared fortnight ago, leaving no trace of his wherea- bouts.
 A photograph of the missing man was shown to the boy. He examined it closely and then seated himself at a table. Covering his eyes, he drew a diagram of the course the man had taken into the woods. At point indi- cated the body of the man was found.
 The day afterward the boy himself was taken over the course, followed by a thousand curious sight-seers. Floet- rum suddenly stopped and said he could see quite plainly where the body lay. He asked that a boat be rowed to a point in the river and said, "Here it is.D
 The body was found at the bottom of the river at the exact place indi- cated.
 Floetrum' powers were discussed three months ago. He is now the most talked-of person in Norway.-London cable to the New York Times.

The Toad Escaped

A brindle bulldog, a Maltese eat, and a hoptoad were strenuous actors yes terday in a trago-comedy at Caldwell, N. J. After brief scene the dog and eat made their exits with precipitation; the hoptoad, slightly damaged, remain ed in possession of Bloomfield avenue, near Hanford place.
 The toad came from under the side walk to seek a few flies and other deli caeies for dinner. The cat, walking across neighboring lawn, espied the toad.
 In an instant the Maltese changed from a household pet to a relentless beast of prey. Crouehing almost to the ground, the cat erept noiselessly for ward, preparatory to spring. So in- tent was pussy that she did not see the bulldog across the street. The dog started at full speed across the street. He was within few feet of the Nal tese as she made a spring and landed, with both fore feet, on the toad's back
 Pussy's hold on the toad was short lived, for, at the very moment of her success, she saw the dog with wide open jaws almost on top of her. Releas- ing her prey, she turned and dashed for the nearest tree, up which she scam pered. In all probability neither the dog nor toad had seen each other, but now, released from the cruel claws, the toad made a mighty leap for ward and landed in the dogs open mouth. Had someone struck the dog with a brick, it's pursuit of the eat could not have been stopped more effectively.
 It rolled over and over, trying to free itself of the strange, squirming something which shut off it's wind and prevented it from bowling, although it tried hard to howl.
 After three minutes at least the dog with last desperate effort of its lungs freed the toad from its mouth to the dusty road
 The bulldogs glance at the toad and at the spectators said as plainly as words: "What am I up against, any way3" Then it vanished.-New York World.

ID EXPLOIT COAL
 FIELDS 0F FINAL
Money Being Raised by Private Sub scription ill Phoenix to Operate Coal Mines-Prominen Business Men of Capital Interested in Project.

The coal fields of Pinal county are going to be exploited. This was fully decided by the committee of business men who met this morning in Lysan- der S. Cassidy's office and rev up the articles of incorporation of the coal company, The articles specify cap ital stock of $l,O00,O00, and work will begin just as soon as $l0,OO0 is gotten together, says the Democrat.
 The money is going to be raised by private subscription and the petition is being circulated now, showing that each subscriber becomes a stoekholder in the company.
 The coal fields have been thoroughly examined and it has been ascertained that there is splendid prospect for coal. This has caused the business men to push it along, not so much with a view of getting rich, although they will make money if coal is found in paying quantities, but with view of promot- ing the general good This is a matter in which all the people of Phoenix are interested, and the money for the de velopment of the mines should be sub. seribed without delay.
 The men who have already attached their names to the list are w. T. Smith M. J. Galpin, w. w. Edwards, P. P Parker, A. R. Taylor, Lysander Cassidy, A. J. Edwards and Harry Kay.

ANTICIPATE BIG
 COPPER SHORTAGE
If Decrease for Next Six Months Is Same as for First Six Months of Year, Shortage Will Amount to 45,- 000,000 Pounds-Arizona in Lead

BOSTON.--If the estimated decrease of 22,5S5,000 pounds in the copper pro. duction of this country for the first six months of the current year, as compared with the first six months of last year, should be duplicated the last half of the year, a shortage of 45,000,0 900 pounds would confront the consumers of this metal. Such a shrinkage should cut some figure in the regulating of the price of refined copper. The Lake Su- perior district has kept up it's reputa- ton for an increase the first half of this year in an increase of 5.6 per cent over the showing of the first half of last year, but the falling off in other sections rolls up the total given above,
 The aggregate output of the trium- virate of copper producing states Michigan, Montana and Arizona-has shown steady increase in the last five years. The largest actual increase of l3l,7S7 ,492 pounds in this period was made by Arizona. This state also leads in the percentage of increase at l00.7. The nearest approach of any state to this doubling of production fig ures was made by Michigan, with an increase of less than 30 per cent.
 These three states produced 775,747,- $50 pounds of the total of 906,59l ,947 pounds of refined copper produced in the United States last year, or s5.5 per cent. This percentage approximates that of 1901, which was S5.7.
 Montana produced less last year than in any year except 1903 since 1901 Michigan s output has increased each year over the preceding without exeep- ton since 1901; with the exception of the year 1902 Arizona has done like. wise.

But at all times and as to all issues, new and old, he would follow the example of Lincoln and of Roose- welt by keeping his ear to the ground.

Of the $l50,O00,0O0 worth of manu- factures which passed out of the ports of the United States in the fiscal year ending June 30, copper formed the sec ond largest item, amounting to $S9,- 0O0,000, of which large portion went in the partially manufactured form of pigs, bars and ingots, and of this prob ably $S5,000,000 went to Europe-the large shipments of copper to China, which were two years ago a marked characteristic of the trade, having all most entirely terminated by reason of the large reduction of new copper coin age in China, for which this material was used.

A THIRD TERM

Noting the fact that a collection of opinions from representative Republic ans throughout the country, made by the New York World, seems to show widespread eomplaisance with the idea of third term for Theodore Roosevelt as president, "the representative Dem oeratie paper of New England ''-that is to say, the Boston Post-sees fit to remark that "there was even a greater force behind the effort for Grant in 1880, and it failed. But if the Repub- lican convention next year allows MT. Roosevelt to dictate who shall be the candidate for the succession, what is the difference, reallyl" While the Washington Post has no objection to the third term, being quite willing to trust the American electorate to decide how many times they will elect man to the presidency-the highest office and greatest honor that is to be won by any human being, this newspaper does not believe that President Roose- welt desires renomination, or will fail to impress his views on his friends. Not one word has come from him that is inconsistent with his original declar- ation on this subject. His most inti- mate friends have no doubt that he stands by his statement given out on the night of election day, 1904. In deed, the more intimate the friend, the more deeply is he impressed with that belief.
 But it seems to be quite possible for a president to exert a strong and really controlling influence in the succession without making it the equivalent of another term for himself. A president thus chosen would be quite free to car ry out his own views, as free as any other president. If he believed the

IS JOHNSON A MAN OF DESTINY

Governor Johnson of Minnesota has been mentioned so often and so promi- nently in connection with the Demo cratic presidential candidacy for 1908 that many persons are beginning to take him seriously, says the St. Louis Globe Democrat, Republican. The fact that he is Colonel Watterson "dark horse' helps him only to the extent that the colonel joins a good many other Democrats in thinking that he would be good man for the candidacy. Johnson is the editor of newspaper in little town in Minnesota, has been member of the legislature and is serv- ing his second term as governor of n stalwart Republican state. The last named circumstance shows that he has some personal popularity in his com munity.
 But what does Mir. Bryan say to Governor Johnson's eandidaey' Bryan is the boss of the Democratic party. He rules that party in the nation as automatically as ever Tweed, Kelly or Croker ruled Tammany. If the con vention were to meet today he would have much more than the needed two thirds vote. But there are symptoms of a revolt against him. A few south ern and eastern newspapers are saying that third battle for Bryan would be more disastrous for his party than his second was, and the second was worse than the first. Yet if he remains in the canvass he will probably be able to control the convention when it meets eleven months hence, unless some sort of a convulsion hits the Democracy in the interval which will radically alter its present aspirations.
 Governor Johnson has certain ele- ments of attractiveness for the Demoe- racy. He has won some victories. In a year in which Roosevelt carried Min nesota by 16l ,OOO, leaving all previous records far behind, Johnson carried the state for governor on the Democratic ticket. He carried the state in 1906 by 76,000. Tens of thousands of Re publicans must have voted for him in each of his two elections. He has given Minnesota the best government which it has had in years. He is young, able, active and an orator who attracts big audiences. For these req sons it is not surprising that many Democrats, disheartened at their par tvs long series of defeats and humilia- tions, turn to him for deliverance. It is not at all certain that Governor John son could carry his state for president It is entirely certain that he could not carry the country. But in these anti Democratic days, Governor Johnson would probably make as strong a run for the presidency as any man who could be thought of as a Democratic nominee.
