Copper continues firm at Top Pr'''s'
 Lake and clectrolytic are selling at ajk and 2j cents, respectively, for de- livery during May and June. Copper ready for immediate delivery can be sold for 2j3, cents to 26 cents per pound. There is no sign of any slack cning in the demand and notwilh'tand' ing the price is now abnormally high' there is good prospect that II VIII go still higher. Extremely cold ana stormy weather and the longcontinued fuel shortage have seriously curtaIled copper production at time when there is Il demand for considerably more than the normal output of all the mines. This strengthens the probab' ility that the average price of copper for the entire year will be at least 70 cents.

SOME M1sCREANT's TRICK.
 (Ffom Fridays Daily.)

Some miscrcant's action in placing large wedges shaped rock beneath the doors of the fire department building came near causing serious accident yesterday afternoon. at | o'clock, but the prompt action of Charley Kcarlcy in stopping the team when within an inch of the doors, which oid not swing open automatically, when the cord was pulled, owing to the presence of the rock, prevented any mishap.
 The rock must have been placed m. der the doors during the night. and had an alarm come in that night there doubtless would have been an accident which would have resulted seriously for horses. driver and truck.
