BARRETT'S DRUG STORE
Remarkably Fine Work.

The camel s hair shawl that can be drawn up through iady's finger ring is not fiction. 1 saw one about two yards square that could be drawn through a small ring just AS easily as if it were a cambric handkerc hief ten inches square. And it was entirely hand woven. In former days one of these shawls was regarded as the most costly and acceptable of presents. Those of today are cheap limitations.
 A New York buyer of Oriental finer ies, such as rugs, carpets, tapestries, shawls, laces and embroideries, spending most of his time between Calcutta and lspahan, said in lecture: "A heather girl of thirteen years, a Hindoo, by the use of her hands simply, can sur
 ,ass in delicacy and fineness of texture f ie productio of the most perfect ma ch inery in the manufacture of cotton ana muslin cloths. In America cotton has been spun so fine that it would re- a,ire q thread 490 miles in length to weigh one pound; but the Hindoo girl has. by her hand, wrought thread which would extend 1000 miles to the hound. The Daccale muslins of her handiwo. ,k, when spread on the ground and cove red with dew, are no longer visible," The spider E web cannot be much iner than this.

ADJUSTMENTS
The Galley Slave.

"The Galley Slave" a high class comedy drama, was presented last night at Dreamland by the Della Pringle stock company before a very large au- dienee. The play was we'll presented, the company again scoring hit. Miss Pringle and her excellent company have given Globe theater goers more good, clean wholesome amusement than any stock company that has ever played in Globe and although they have already put on ten performances there has been no falling off in the size of the houses. The smallest house durIng the engage ment was that of Sunday night, when the company played "The Belle of Richmond - and this house would have been considered a gaad one by an or dinary company It is safe to say that could the company continue in definitely, varying their plays and vaudeville features, they would have lit tie difficulty in playing season s en, gagement in Globe.
 On account of the Christmas eve ball tonight at Dreamland, the company will take a rest. Tomorrow afternoon a matinee will be given, the play being 'The Chorus Girl which made such a hit last Wednesday night, and in the evening for the end of their local en- gagement, "The Outcast,' very strong play with Miss Pringle in the title role, will be presented.

SHANNON COPPER INCREASE OUTPUT
CLIFTON COMPANY GET TING Ev ERYTHING IN SHAPE FOR IN
 CREAsING OF OUTPUT.

CLIFTON, December 23.-The Sha n- non Copper company is continuing ops erations on about the same scale that was in being before the company be. gal to feel the effects of the drop in copper price. The new furnace has been operated with the notion of giv. ing the company any opportunity of getting the two old furnaces into first. class shape, looking forward to ultimate. ly throwing into single furnace after the same methods as that employed in the furnaces of the Anaconda Copper company, at the Washoe shelter. When this plan is completed the shannon will again be able to raise it's capacity and will have no trouble with the proposed enlargement in turning out 3,OO0,0OO pounds of copper per month.
 The company during the past year of operation has likewise taken care that operations shall not be interrupted as the case last year, and had laid in an ample fuel supply. The excellent condition of the treasury has also en- abled the company to go ahead with considerable development work in the mining end which will look ultimately toward a much enlarged production of ore. The Coronado mine. which was bought for the property some time ago. has proved big winner. and the out look is xcellent there. New methods of mining have also been installed which will give the company much bet ter results in the opinion of all who have seen the very effective work that Manager Bonnie has been doing at the pronerty.
 shannon during the past three months sertion that when there was need for it the price of copper would be brought to normal level, and when the pinch did come it has proved better able to meet it than some of the other properties which were reputed iow-prieed copper makers, as indeed they were, the diff ference being that the Shannon costs were figured at New York, while the other properties figured at the mine. When things do start up again the
 New England & Clifton, which has com l pleted it's tramway to the shannon
 smelters, will be again a good sized
 shipper to the shannon, and another
 property which is owned by Boston parties, many of them connected with
 the Calumet & Hecla, but not owned by the property, as has been erroneously
 stated, will likewise resume operations.

Ho, ' the World Grows.

In little more than 100 years, ac- eording to go vernment figures, the pop ulation of tho world has grown from $40. .OOO,O to 1,600,000,0OO, an increase of l5O per cent. At the end of so many hundreds of centuries, in other words, there were in the world in 1900 only GAG, ,O0O, GOO of persons, and in lO6 years from 1900 to 1908, to this number had been added 960,O00,000.
 The total commerce of the world Tn 1900 was about one and q half billions of dollars; in 1900 it was more than twenty billions of dollars. Other hg-
 ures show that in wealth and the growth of various industrial ageneies the increase has been far swifter than that of population.

William McWhirter followed Donaldson.
His story of the robbery and the events
following was much the same as he has
told it at other hearings. Under cross
examination by Judge Thurman an effort
was made by the defense to show by him
that Sheets was in his office all after
noon and could not have met Donaldson
at the Kenyon hotel corner in the
course of the afternoon. He was still
under cross-examination when an adj
journment was taken until this morning
at $50.
