The "PuIr" and the Job.


 Business men are constantly being pestered by young men who seek posi- tions through letters of recommends ton. often in the form of personal re- quests from fellow business men. One may well question whether these let ters have any great pulling power after all. The Saturday Evening Post tells of such an instance. After being very politely dismissed by several mana gers with the stereotyped expres. sion that there was not a vacancy at present, the young man tore up the let ters and went back to the place last visited.
 "What can I do for you now?" the manager asked in an annoyed tone. Pardon me-" said the young man, "but I've just torn up those letters. Could you give me job on my own hook?''
 The manager looked amused and said: "We need young fellow to chip castings in the machine shop at SC week. If you like, you can have that until something better turns up."
 "Yes, sir" replied the job hunter "I'm ready now"

Queen Sophia and Bismarck.

Queen Sophia of the Netherlands, the first wife of King William III. of Hol, land. was too great a friend of Elm peror Napoleon III.. the Empress Flu genie and of France generally to take kindly to Bismarck. Before the big war of 1870 and probably some time after the Luxembourg squabble there was an international exhibition in Am sterdam, which the queen visited. She was conducted over the whole place by the committee, and as they came to certain section one of the members said, "Now your majesty will see the greatest enemy of Germany" "Ah, Bismarck" she cried, with some glee. The members stood aghast and never repeated this rash exclamation. The "Sreatest enemy" he had to exhibit was not, of course. Bismarck at all, but only a very much enlarged repro duction of either the phylloxera or the Colorado beetle which at that time did a great deal of harm to German agri' lture.-Testminster Gazette.

 AN OPT|h|ST
Prominent Mining Man Thinks Present Conditions Are
 But Temporary.

Hoyal A. Smith, the prominent min ing man. returned to Bisbee this morning from a visit of three weeks to his old home in the northern part of the state Of Iowa. MT. Smith is close observer of industrial and com merciai conditions wherever he goes. Speaking this morning of conditions In Iowa, Missouri and other neigh5or- ing states he said:
 q found industrial conditions to be in fine condition in my home state and found the same conditions in Nils. souri, through which I travelled. The crops ir those states are good and the prices for the products are at the rec ord top notch Oats and barley are selling for twice as much as few years ago. The banks iu that country all have plenty of money and learned that many of the industrial enter prises in Chicago were now financing their business among the banks in the smaller towns of Iowa and Illinois.
 T do not think the present business disturbance on account of the tighten ing of the financial conditions throughout the couHtr.- will continue for long. The copper industry seems
 
 turbance just now, as discontinuance
 many industrial enterprises has caused a falling of in the immediate demand for copper. It was generally recognized that 25 cents was an ab. normal price for copper: that figure enabled the working of many small properties which gave an abnormal prosperity to the industry. I consider tr-. s~ oafa 4f.GQu ac t has ever been and expect to see development work continue unsbated by those who had arranged for the money to carry on the work sometime ago. The development propositions in which I am interested in Arizona VII rot be affected"
