SHOPPING IN GREENLAND.
East Coast Natives Make Trips Last

ing Four Years.
 When the Greenlander of the east coast goes a-shorping, 1t is no light matter of a day or a week The snow hut holder of the far north. on finding that his supplies are running low, packs up his belongings and walks off, with his wife and family. He keeps on walking, summer and winter. for it takes him anywhere from one to two full years to reach n settlement where there are shops. Whole colonies some. times join in these pilgrimages from their northern dwelling places, camp ing by the way us weather and inclina- tion permit One might suppose that such protracted journeys would be fol lowed by long stays at the place of business. Not so. The Eskimo spends little more time over the shopping for which he has come so far than does a woman bargain hunter at the periodical drapery sales with us. Sometimes two hours finish the transactions. and the purchaser will start on his long return journey northward The fine bea- and fox skins which he has brought with him are bartered for secondhand clothes, tobacco, old iron and many articles not only valueless, but actually injurious to the buyer 4 life which can afford a four years shopping trip now and again does not strike one as overstrenuous--London Scraps.

NIGHT OF CIRCUS SEES HORSES
 STOLEN
Several Persons. Including Of ficer Bauer of Lowell, Mourn The Loss Of Saddle Horses Taken During Show.
Lowell. Oct. 3. 1907.

i1ONeH. OSl os iSet-
 From numerous complaints that have come to the officers today. horse and saddle thieves evidently reaped a harvest at the night per forrnauce of the Ringing Brothers show at Don Luis One of the first tn make known his loss was Deputy Sheriff Frank Bauer. Frank, while not saving much about his loss is doing some tall thinking. Among the others who reported losses were the following: R C. Lacy. horse. saddle and bride; Humphries from Naco, horse. saddle and bride; rancher from the valley by the name of Hig- gins also reported the loss of saddle and horse. but the horse was found afterward In addition to these losses Alex. Ferrens, who drives a bus be- tween Lowell and Bisbee, reported that someone had made away with one of his rigs. This was later locat- ed. The o. K. Stable reported rig stolen which was afterward found at Naco. and O'Laughlin the transfer man, reported buggy stolen from him. This was afterward located at at O. K Stable where it was left by three coiored men. These numerous
  plaints gave the officers a rather strenuous time of it last night.
 The case against Ben Behrens. charged with embedding the sum of s95o intrusted to him for sale keep ing by one Charles Kemletz. was dis missed this morning by Judge Grier.
 N. A. Peterson was tried this alter noon before the local justice on a charge of disturbing the peace at one of the grading camps at Upper Lowell by using profane and violent language toward the foreman in charge. The court. after hearing the testimony in the case discharged the defendant.

San BernardinO
 Business College

Has arranged with the authorities at Washington to hold in San Bernardino semi-annual civil service examinations for 56 different government positions. This affords students of that school the double advantage of making their prep aration and passing their examination at the same place.
 This school is to ordinary business colleges what the university is to or dinary literary schools. It never sends out "cheap John" bookkeeper or stenographer. Students who finish courses in this school easily pass U. s. civil service examinations and secure government positions.
 So great is the demand for students who have been trained in the Lightning Legible shorthand that positions paying not less than $70 a month to begin with are guaranteed to every young man of good character and address who finishes this conrse. There is still greater de- mand for those who have completed both business and a shorthand course. The salaries paid for well trained lady stenographers are quite as large as for young men.
 The Lightning Legible Shorthand is taught in the above school by its author who guarantees to teach any young person with good common school edu- cation under reasonable conditions to write legibly 150 words of new and un- familiar matter to the minute in to 4 months or make no charge for the course-about half the time and cost and 12 times the speed of the old sys- tens.

LIMITLESS
Are the Resources of the Imperial
 Valley Says the Sun

The San Diego and Arizona railroad which is building from San Diego to Yuma through the Imperial valley means the open ing of the doors of San Diego to us, and it also means the furnish ing of material to make of San Diego a front-rank town, and in commenting upon the beginning of work on this road, and the limitless resources of the valley, the San Diego Sun prints the fol- lowing:
 "The date of completion means the date on which the almost limitless resources of the Imper- ial valley will be opened to di- rect communication and trans portation with San Diego,~ and the benefits to be derived from such service can not now be measured by any man to an ex- act figure, but any one who has seen that great and fertile val ley must concede that such ben fits will be enormous. By the time this road is opened, two years hence, there will be about five hundred thousand acres un- der irrigation and cultivation in Imperial, California, alone, and those acres will be thef most productive areas in all CalifOr- nia, alone, and those acres will be the most productive areas in all the world. That is saying a good deal but it is believed to be true. The only known region which compares with the Colo rado delta IS the Nile and if that delta is as fertile it certainly lacks population of the character to be found now in the Imperial valley.
 "Ultimate1y the 50O,OOO irri- gated acres will be occupied, hap fly and prosperously, by fve-huu- dred thousand people. That is another big statement but it will be proved true. Imperial valley is the most perfect hot house, without glass, to be found in this country, or the world"

It occurred to him that he might az
well make up his mind definitely what
he would do with his money when he
got 1t. He could decide upon but ono
thing, but with that he was quite con-

unknown and insects troublesome, but

WRITf MANY LETTERS
--latest Scheme Against
CataIok Houses is
Peculiar

webster City, Iowa.-O. I. Kleveland
of Jewell is organizing the merchants
of Hamilton county into an associa'
tion for q fight upon the cata1oR
houses. The Opposition in Hamilton
county is only duplicate Of what II
now being carried on In every county
in Iowa. 1t was started by the state
association of lumbtrmen and 10 to be
carried into every state in the union.
Mr.. Kleveland started his campaign
here. HIS rlan is to get every retail
merchant in touch with oil the large
catalog houses through . letter or cy
making some small purchase and then
to ask for a catalcg. Then BY various
il quires regarding goods eacn 3
merchant is to write the several
catslog houses at least two letters q
week.
Figuring the cost of the immense
catalogs issued by mail o1aer houses
at 81 q piece and the postage to be
paid by these houses in answering
the 20, goo letters they will receive
weekly from Iowa. it is certain the
cataloR houses will be forced to
change their business methods. It ie
figured this plan can be made to cost
the catalog houses as much as 800, O!N
q month apiece with practically no
return.
Mr.. Kleveland says that over 1000
lum bermen have already pegun the
campaign. The big mail order houses
have learned of the plan and are TAX
ing every precaution to weed out their
mail, separating the prospective pur'
chasers from those who are fighting
them. With Hamilton and every
other county in Iowa organized. how.
ever, the big houses will be OBLIGED
to increase their force to open mail.
The Iowa retail merchants figure that
If their mail is thrown into the waste
basket, where much of 1t will doubt
less 90, it is inevitable that honest
inquiries from many prospective
customers will lind q resting place
there also.
1t is announced that at the national
lumbermen's meeting in Cincinnati
this summer this plan will be put
into effect In every state of the union.
