lnkling of Gods Love.

Men would rather live life of tears and pain and have love than to live q painless and fearless existence with out love. Hrnan love is stronger than hate, than avarice, than ambition. Hu- man love can make feast fin the hovel or a paradise out of Wilderness. If this be the power of human love, what must be that of God? A fathers love Is great mothers love is greater, but Gods love Is the greatest of all. Ali the love of this world, without which duty would become irksome, the truth unpleasant-all the love of this world Is but symbol of that of the next Ii Is just an inkling of the affection that God has for us.-Rev. Dr. Samuel Nichols. Presby yterian, St. Louis.

general merit. 1t has been performed continuously for three years in the leading cities of the west and south and it has drawn capacity audiences every where, even upon it's third and fourth engagements. The reason for this is found in the fact that this pro- duction combines all the elements which are calculated to amuse, enter tain and delight all who witness it, from the beginning of the perform ance to it's conclusion. It's comedy is of the brilliant, wholesome sort which
 keeps the audience constantly con- vulsed with laughter; it's music is the popular, swinging melodious sort, which finds instant favor and which is so captivating that it is quickly re- membered and it's attractiveness is emphasized by stage environment which is delight to the eye and which by its massive proportions, it's highly artistic coloring and it's orig
 inality of design, makes an indelible impression upon the mind The work is presented by a company of con- edians and vocalists which is general ly regarded as the most competent that has ever been brought together on the stage at one time. Principal among these are Knox Wilson, Will liam Welp, Maurice Darcey, Adelaide Harland, Grace Drew and Dorothy Webb Of course, there are others in this remarkable company who have important work to do and these well known names are guarantee of a cast of unsual excellence. Then there
 is chorus of 60 made up principally
 of sweet-faced, graceful girls who sing and dance and who wear ire quent changes of stunning costumes.

HAVE JUST INSTALLED
ONE OF THE NEW 2Oth CENTURY EVANGELISM THE LINE OF
 IMPROVING HEALTH.

It is we'll known fact that it re- quires boiling heat to kill all germs. It is also known that you cannot get your clothes boiled when having them done by your washerWoman, as nine out of every ten wash your clothes with the same water and never boil them-and at the most they only use two waters, one to wash with and then to blue them. Now, as the city has been having a lot of fever and oth- fer sickness, we think you can over come some of it by having your work sent to steam laundry. In the first place, we boil them with steam; in the second place, we give them eight diff ferent waters, overcoming the soapy smell you have from washerwomen; in the third place, if garment is missing you have recourse, while in nine cases out of ten if anything is short from the washerwoman they say nothing for fear of losing her; fourth, prices are such that it is as cheap to have them done by us; sixth, if it rains it is the same, you get your washing; seventh, you don't have to worry about your washwoman not be- ing after your linen; eighth, we are prepared with our new machines to turn out 50,o00 pieces a day, and, as we have gone to this expense, we feel that the people of Pine Bluff will give us trial, and if your work is not satisfactory it costs you nothing.
 Our motto: We guarantee you clean, white, beautiful linen. The American-EXcelsior Laundry Co., ex- cells all others, barring none. As we lead. others follow.

Special Wire to .1. OveTloca.;
 NEW YORK, Nov. 11-Considera- bIe feverishness characterized the trading in the stock market today. Ad- vantage was taken on the period of strength to secure profits and declines in some instances were drastic. The failure of the directors of Union and Southern Pacific to announce plans in regard to the future financial opera .ions of the companies caused heavy selling in those issues, but on the de cline it was noted that the buying was of good character and mostly by those xho have hesitated about making commitments during the recent ad- vances. In spite of the heavy selling ihe list at 10 time presented a de moraiized appearance, and in the re- cent leaders good support was noted. On good quarters 1t seems to be the opinion that higher prices will contin- ue after weak accounts are elininat- ed.

.14.5 COPPER
 !. ENCOURAGES HE MARKET
Metal Is On the Way to 15 CentS-Superior & Pittsburg Strong During Whole Day at $500.
tBy Frank J. Graf,

Lake copper quoted at 14 1-2 is about the most encouraging news We have had for some time, and from all indications the metal is on to the 15c mark. The New York market opened in the best form, and carried it till about noon, waen there was consider abel profit taking. causing the market To show lower prices at the close. Tn the Boston list the selling was no, too heavy in the better class of stock Superior & Pittsburg was especial y strong, selling at $500 to 1923, the entire day closing at that figure. Greene Cananea was inclined to shom slight weakness, closing at S12.00. Black Mountain continues in good favor, the last sales being made at $4.- l2. It looks as though Black Noun. tain will be selling for higher flsu, ss In the very near future. Denn-Arlzo- pa Is inclined to show continued acA dvity the demand being good at s4.6S to S4.75. Shattuck was offered during the day at $500, vita no DIus, although quotations came in at s19.OV bid. Globe Consolidated is well pro tected at $7.50. Superior and Boston. and Miami. are being well bought up, and both are booked for higher pric es. Tn entire lists look as thougtl they will sell for higher prices.

SHANNON COPPER.

Boston-There have been important underground developments at the mines of the shannon Copper Co. Ore has recently been encountered in the ore tunnel level 40 feet below what has heretofore been considered the bottom of the mine.
 The ore tunnel level or working tun nel level was driven in what was con sideTed barren ground, and the find ing of an ore body in this tunnel is probably the most important develop mnet in the shannon property for . number of years. It has always beeA considered that the ore did not ex- tenrd below certain zone; it is now almost a certainty that large bodies of ore are to be found at greatr, greater depth.
 This new ore body has been cross. cut for a width between 40 and nU feet and it averages about f per cent to per cent copper.
 The ore formations at Shannon are In large lenses in the nature of DOT phyry masses, similar to the ore de, posits of the Nevada Consolidated MI ami, etc.
 The shannon Co. has more ore in sight today than it ever had, and the latest discovery is of particular inn portance as extending the life of the mine.
 lie annual report, soon to issue. will show net earnings of about s9O.. 900 upon a total production of nearly lo,O1U,VO0 pounds of copper. For the first six months of the fiscal year, however, the company was unable to get down its costs so as to permit profitable operation. Its costs aI. now under the 12-cent mark. however and for the full 1907-S year costs will probably equal 121k cents. An inn portant factor in reducing expenses has been the recent ability of the management to effect an additional saving of about four pounds of cop per per ton in the tailiugs.
 shannon, with a production of I.6OO.- coo pounds of copper per month. should now be netting about 2h cents per pound profit on 14-cent copper. or $4OOOO per month, equal to $1.60 per share per annum. Every one cent advance in the price of cop3er adds 50 cents per share to the div.s- lble profits, so that on ths basis of output and costs the company can show net earnings in excess of S2 per sEare on 15-cent copper.

CONSERVATISM BRINGS PROFIT.
CMining WorId.)

Since the financial furry last fall there has been extraordinary conser- vatism shown by the management of the mines and metalTurgical works III this country, resulting in the accum- uiation of a surplus large enough to suggest that dividend payments will be increased in the not distant future In fact, during the past 10 months, ac- cording to the careful compilation oI The Mining World, dividends amount ing to S37,2S9,162 have been declared by 73 metal mines and works in the United States. Since their organiza- tion these 73 copper, gold, silver, lead, zinc and quicksilver properties have yielded dividends to the enormous to- i tai of $511, 1,730,295 on an issued capi. talization of $430,077, ,9S3.
 Although much the larger part of these dividends has gone into the pockets of individual shareholders il will be surprising to learn that six corporations owning the majority of !! the stock issued by certain mines and works nave in 10 months this year declared dividends of s6,774,0S9. mak- | ing a grand total to date of $76,931,- ] 648 on an outstanding capitalization of S241,956,000. Ordinarily these se- curities holding corporations pay quarterly dividends at the rate of 4, | or per cent per annum on their re. ' spective share issues of $100 par, al though the greatest of them all, the Amaigamated Copper Co. declares only per cent. So far this year Amalgamated nas announced divi- dends of S3,077,756, the last being 50 cents per share payable Nov. 30. l Since it's organization in April, 1899, the dividends declared by Amalgam- ated amount to 57,235,139 on capi, taliZation which has gradually been increased to $153,SS7 300.
 | Another "open hand" to share in the profits of the mining industry is the i concern that undertakes to market the products on commission. Two metal selling agencies, controlled by ! few people. have in 10 months this year declared dividends of $1,130,000, making total of Se,755. 900 since in corporation with a capitalization or $5,100,000. The larger of the two is the. United Metal Selling Co, con trolled by people who are business as sociates of the coterie that dominates the Amalgamated Copper Go. The United Metals Selling Go. Is capital ized at S5,000, ,000, and in about eight years has divided among it's stock holders dividends aggregating the large sum of s6,75O,O0O or 131 per cent.
 The prospects are that with the higher prices for copper, silver and lead-the principal commercial met ais-- prophesied by trade authorities before the close of the year will mean better dividend record for 1908 than was anticipated some months ago.

 NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-The market today was very active and at the opening strong. The public have been going in very strong and the enormous profit taking by insiders has been easily absorbed. In the afternoon there was a sharp reaction. but be fore the close prices braced up again and the close was well above the low est. We look for activity for the rest of the week, but expect to see it very hard to bull the market much above the present prices for the time being.

CHICAGO GIRL LIFTED"
Miss Barry Took Earrings Belonging
 to Miss Welsh.

Hartford, Aug 13.-Miss Mary Barry, 16 years old, an attractive young girl, who is the daughter Of well-to-do parents in Chicago, Ill, was before Judge Walter H. Clark in chambers in police court yesterday charged with theft. Miss Barry has been visiting in this city for several weeks. On Tuesday, she was at the home of Miss Welsh, a relative, at go Pond street, and she took a pair oI diamond earrings worth $S00 and started out to sell them.
 The girl went to the jewelry store of Lux. Bond & Lux, S59 Main street, and offered the earrings for sale. The youth of the girl and the value of the rings at once aroused the suspicious of the gentleman who waited upon her. He noticed that she grew very white when he interrogated her Finally she said she would sell the rings for SIS, and then he felt cer- tain that something was wrong. He told her that he would examine the rings and that if she would call in half an hour he would give her an answer.
 The girl left the store and while she was gone, communication was had with the police. Detective Henry Hart was sent to the store. When the girl called the rings were handed back, and she was told that the store did not care to buy them. At the same time Detective Hart was sig nailed that she was the right one, and he followed her out of the store and placed her under arrest.
 On' the way to the police station Miss Barry broke down, and admitted taking the earrings.
 The case came up in chambers and those interested were not anxious to prosecute her. She restored the prop erty, and her relatives agreed to send her back to Chicago to her home If she were allowed to go. The court placed her on probation. The young girl is attractive and well dressed and made a striking appear ance at police headquarters in her white gown and large hat.
