Didn't Know His own Kind

A New York mechanical engineer who has just returned from a trip abroad, in which he visited Germany tells an incident of his visit to the latter country.
 CT was inspecting big plant there, J he said, "and naturally l was interest ed in the machinery used to furnish power. I was inspecting the engine room, when I saw something which at tracted me. An oil-begrimed workman was on top of cylinder polishing some brass work, and him I approached for information
 "Pardon me, l said, in my best German. "Do you have trouble in keep in up steamP'
 "The man stepped his polishing work and looked at me.
 l" Nix, no understandi' he said in English.
 C So you are an Englishman9' exclaimed.
 ' 'That's what I am, the work man replied. "I m travelling, and l am new on this job l was taken in on ac- count of their labor troubles.
 C 'Then, as he looked me over care fully. So you speak English, and with a very polite smile, he added Excuse me for saying it, sir, but you speak very good English for Dutchman.,

GREENLAND OPENS
 WITH MINISTRIES
Fall Season to Begin with Vests Min strels-Old- time Favorites with Show This Year-Have One of the Greatest Song Successes of the Season.

The fall season of the Dreamland the strels. The Peoria Herald-Transcript says of this great aggregation of fun. makers:
 The doors of the Majestic theater were thrown open last evening for the season of 19070s, the second season in the. existence of the house.
 As an opening attraction, West E Minstrels, all in new togs, with gal. axy of new songs, jokes and dances and an elaborate olio, delighted a packed house. West $ Minstrels, while having showed in Peoria on numerous former occasions, have this year branched out to where they can lay claim to supremacy in the minstrel field.
 The list of comedians and singers on this years program is a notable one and includes:
 George Van, Billy Graham, James H. Stuart, James Everett, Will l.. Darling ton, Sam Frazer, James McGreevey and George Brown.
 Roswell J. Wright, Lloyd Ballet, Will liam Renaud, James Cantwell, Fred De- Forest, Nick Voerg, Charles Monroe, Raymond Rand.
 Lloyd Balliett and Sanford B. Ric- aby.
 Probably one of the greatest song successes ever scored in Peoria was made last evening by Billy Graham with "Back to the Mountain, You Are Wild" George Van was at his best last evening and convulsed his hearers with veritable fountain of mirth
 In the olio, Major Fred Smith as the Man in White" proved marvel as a Hindoo stick manipulator. The differ ent scenic productions throughoutthe piece are all unique and afford pleas ing relief to the usual run of scenic ere ations put on by the average minstrel show. West s Minstrels will continue at the Majestic up to and including Wednesday evening, August 2l.

NOTHING DOING
 IN LAKE COPPER
Favorite Brand of Red Metal Out of the Market Altogether-Belief that Minimum Limit Has Been Reached with Copper at Eighteen Gents.

Although Electrolytic copper is sell ing at IS cents in limited quantities, there seems to be absolutely nothing doing in Lake copper at any price, so that the accumulation of this brand of metal is constantly increasing, says the News Bureau. The larger companies have made no sales for four or five months and deliveries were, so far as can be aseertained, completed by June 30. Stocks of copper at the Lake must now be near the 5OO0O,O0O pound mark.
 Even though the prices of raw copper are now down to about the 20-cent level there has been no recent change in the base price of sheet copper-2S cents which was established at the time the first drop was announced by the lead ing producers There is at the moment practically no new business coming for ward in this particular line.
 The large selling interests are quite confident that with the cut in price of Electrolytie copper to IS cents and probable corresponding reduction in the

priee or Lake the minimum limit bas been temporarily reached.
 Asked about the present situation the representative of one of the largest sell. ing agencies says:
 Following the cut in price to IS cents consumers are buying sparinply and will doubtless continue to do so We hope, however, that the limit has been reached and can see notbino ot the present time which indicates other. wise. Consumers, and the wire mann. featuring interests, have been holding oil from making purchases and we know or several million pounds which will in all probability be taken by them."
 The representative of one of the larg- est wire drawing companies said yester. day that it would be week before if would be known how general the res. ponse would be to the cut in prices.
 Cooper manufacturers are taking no chances, " he said, ."They were loaded up last winter with larger stocks of cop per than they ever carried before and they are left with some of it still on their hands. They are not going to buy except from hand to mouth in a drop- ping market and they won t order ahead until they can sound their mar ket and see what response a reduction in price is going to bring from their customers.
 "ln it's finality the whole question of whether copper is going lower or not depends upon the business situation.
 "There is not copper enough to go around when business is in full swing and there is too much when expansion is checked. If the ultimate users of copper are confident in the immediate future, copper will remain at the pres

heen fairly active. especially in the matter
Of selling residences and suburban lots.
The largest sale Of the week was the trans
fer Of the Chapin apartment house to the
National Benevolent Sanatorium for S100,- 70

The court record Of real estate trans

sales each day Mostly they have been
residences, ranging IN price from $500 TO
1900. Several Of the brokers said yes
terday that their business had been un-
eXpectedly brisk for this season of the
year. As one expressed II: The tide Of
home buyers suffers no abatement" II
seemed 70 him that nearly all the govern
ment employees and men in business who
could possibly DO so were buying houses
and lots and getting away from the rent
ing habit. II was also a matter Of sur
prise he said, how few Of the families
making big ventures In buying their
homes gave up the struggle and sur
rendered tkelr holdings after their deals
had gone through.
