Wheat is the favorite speculation
for 'plungers" for the moment, the
factors being favorable TO speculative
activity. The late season, unfavor.
able conditions, and prospective short
age abroad make for uncertainty
The New York journal of Commerc
says there is probability that our
wheat harvest of the present year will
fall considerably below that of last
year, and it may be under the average
of recent years. The increase in north
western Canada which was naturally
TO be expected will probably not be
fully realized, and it is fairly certain
that the Russian and Roumanian sup
ply will be short. There was suffic-
lent ground for an advance in prices
in the actual wheat market and more
especially in options for future deliv.
cry, but the moment the speculative
spirit was aroused this was sure to be
exaggerated. The eager desire to make
money quickly by taking risks on mar
gins was awakened and buying orders
We're lured to the exchanges from every
quarter, with the effect of whirling
prices upward The plungers with
their millions were quick to seize the
opportunity and they will keep up the
excitement until the breaking point is
reached Some of them may get hurt,
but they can stand it, or if they can
not it will not matter. In the net re.
suit it will be the professional"
who rake in the winnings and the
public" who supply them.

RICH DEPOSIT OF GEN STONES
IN GRAPE CREEK CANON

j. d. Endicott of South Canon and
d. H. Woolsey OF Rye, Colo, both
practical mining men and geologists,
have uncovered in Grape Creek Canon.
within two miles of town, what 10
said to be the largest and most valu-
able deposit of gem stones known in
this section OF the country.
They have filed the necessary
claims and are planning to organize
a company for the development of the
property. which is declared to be in
creditably rich in garnets, tourma-
lines, topaz, Amazon stone, sun stone,
smoky quartz, aquamarienes, etc. A
large number of beautiful specimens
from the newly found deposits have
been brought to town and shown at
local jewelers.. while others have
been sent to Denver and Chicago for
cutting and exhibition purposes.
The garnets are exceptional in the
beauty of their color, hardness and
brilliancy; their erlative hardness
when compared with the diamond be-
ing as eight to ten. Messrs. Endicott
and Woolsey are confident that their
find is one of great Importance and
they express the belief that they will
be able to supply the demand of the
American market for domestic gems.
They have already established a
camp and have begun mining opera
tons in a systematic manner. The
gems are found encased In a grano-
lithic schist in seam about eight
inches in width and they are taken out
OF the rock in much the same manner
that raisins are from an English plum
pudding.
In Bohemia a population OF 10000
people is supported by mining this
class OF gems. the majority of which
are inferior to those found in Grape
Creek Canon.
These gems are extremely beautiful
and are formed by the capitalization
of gases in which large amount OF
chemical matter is held in solution.
In most OF them there is more or less
aluminium and other minerals, the
principal ingredient. however. being
carbonate of lime.
