Jesse Bland Suicides.

Apparently weary of life's bat ties, Jesse Bland, a prosperous young stockraiser of Parker's Can yon, this county on New Years afternoon. at his mothers home, took his own life by sending bull let through his head.
 Particulars are lacking but it is learned that the unfortunate young man, who was known by many in Nogalcs as a happy-go-lucky fellow attended a country dance New Years Eve near his home. After spending the night at the dance Jesse returned home New Years day, and immediately retired to bed
 About o'clock in the afternoon, he arose from his bed, went into another room, secured his pistol, returned, and deliberately sent a bullet through his head, dying a short time later.
 Early Wednesday morning news of the tragedy was telephoned to MT. Frank J. Duffy of this city who at once sent a coffin over to Parker Canyon, where the remains of Jesse, who was a cousin of Mrs. Duffy, were buried late Wednesday afternoon.
 The cause for the rash act is un- known here, where Jesse was well know and liked by all who knew him. He was only about thirty years of age, and his sudden, tragic death is deeply regretted through out the country.
 To the sorrowing family, espe- cially the heart-broken mother, THE BORDER V1DETTE extends sym pathy.

October saw an immense advance in cotton prices-14O points on spots and 166 points on futures-in ten days copper reached the highest price in twenty-six years, cool wea ther helped trade, and a record months business was done. Car congestion became acute, and reports came of damage to harvested grain and growing cotton-the latter by frost Storm at harvest hurt to- bacco south and west and hurt cotton badly in the south Atlantic states.
 November saw only a slight lull in trade before Election Day. iron and steel continued to advance despite record production, and large imports and car congestion hampered all lines, but business was active and a large area went into winter wheat. Preparations for record holiday trade were made at wholesale, later justified by an early and heavy demand.
 In December, car shortages eff fected trade and caused sufferings in the northwest. The increased wheat area entered the winter in condition equal to 1905. An un- procedented trade in holiday goods at record prices closed the year

There used to be held in accordance
with Murchison's well known geolog-
ical views the general theory that
mountains were mainly due to cracks
which took place in the surface of the
earth In remote periods, but this idea
Is no longer entertained by scientific
men. AS to the form of mountains,
that which is known as table mountain
finds the best example, curiously
enough, at the Cape of Good Hope, a
mountain it is believed, due not to
any action or phenomenon OF upheayal,
but to the sinking of the surrounding
districts or territory. Why these pc
culiarly defined areas did not sink was
owing, 1t is thought, to the probable
fact that the ground under them cooled
before the rest of the section, and thus
the table mountain had the earlier
foundation and has long retained Its
place There would always be denuda-
ton. however, though proportionate
with its surroundings, and therefore,
owing to this fact of being higher at
the start, it still keeps to its approx
mate elevation.

thought he would take advantage Of
this opportunity TO get some dinner
and ordered an omelet
How many eggs do you wish to be
usedI" inquired the landlord who had
been eying him suspiclously. The in
nocent Condorcet was at his wits end.
He reflected on the size of the ordi-
nary omelet.
Twelve" he boldly replied
His fate was sealed None but an
aristocrat could be SO ignorant or so
extravagant He was arrested and led
away to prison, from which he never
emerged

Rirda Euolued From RentiIes.

1t may be shock to some persons to
learn that the birds of the present day
are descendants of reptiles. This fact
has been conclusively proved by the
fossil remains of creatures that form
the intermediate stages between the
birds of today and the reptiles of pre-
historic ages. In fact, many of the
birds have not yet completed their ev-
olution as in the case OF the penguin,
whose wings are merely rudimentary,
absolutely inadequate for flying pur-
poses and useful only as a means Of
propelling these awkward creatures
through the water
