HALF A MILLION A DAY.
That Is the Amount Which Chicago
Puts Into Stimulants.

Chicago's consumption of stimulants Ii
amazing, according to a correspondent
The money spent in saloons alone totali
up between S120,OOO,OOO and $4,000,
600 annually. At least $1O,O0O,OO0 more
is spent for stimulating drugs in the 9O(
drug stores in the city.
If tobacco can be classed as a stimu
liant it may be said that there are between
$4,000 and 10000 places in the city
where cigars and tobacco are sold. Proba
bly, 100000 per day is not an exagger
ated estimate for Chcago's smoking bill
At the lowest estimate, taking alcoholic
beverages, tobaccos, and all manner Of
drugs into account, it is impossible to fig
ure that Chicago spends less than 5000,
600 per day on stimulants of various
kinds, and the chances are the amount i!
considerably higher.
OF this enormous sum, how much doei
the worker spend? Fully 10 per cent, II
all business men, officers of corporations
and all men who work with hand or brain
are included. But for the worker, thu
saloonkeepers themselves say, they would
have to close up shop in few days. Th'
remaining 25 per cent Of the $5OO,OOC
must be set aside between women whc
lead domestic lives and non workers Of al
kinds. Women perhaps are the heaviest
Of all users Of drugs.

A New York clergyman, who often
spends his vacation in fishing the
streams Of the Adirondacks, was on
one trip adopted by handsome setter
dog. which insisted on following Inn
from camp to camp, as he moved along
the stream.
One day he met a party of men
working upstream with native guide
The guide Immediately recognized the
dog as his own property.

"Ill have you to jail for this There's
a law in the woods just as big as you
have in the city"
The clergyman endeavored to ex'
plain that he was an unwilling com
panion of the dog, which had refused
to be driven away, but to little ef-
feet until he added a two-dollar bill
to his arguments.
"It's queer what strange things hap
pen to a man up here" he said to the
stage-driver who later carried him
away from the woods. THAT Is the

Government Final Estimate Shows
Great Decline in Cereal
Production.
PRICES MAKE FARMERS HAPPY
rhey Will Get Half Billion of
Dollars More This Year
than Last.

The government report shows a
shortage Of S5,9S7 900 bushels In total
crops as compared with the crops of
1906, which were the largest ever raised
in this country, and a shortage Of 377,
2S7, 900 bushels as compared with the
yields Of 1905, which were also very
large.
The chief shortage Is in the corn
crop, with 335,OOO,OOO bushels, oats
with 211,OOO,OOO bushels and wheat
with 101 100000 bushels.
There Is something of an offset to the
big losses In the feeding grains in the
increase Of 6431 900 tons of hay as
compared to that of 1906, and of
3,045,3SS tons as compared to the crop
of 1905.

CHAPTER XVII.

Two years pass quickly, particularly at
school, and to Maddy Clyde, talking with
her companions of the coming holidays, it
seemed hardly possible that two whole
years were gone since the eventful vaca-
ton when DR.. Holbrook had so startled
her by Offering her his hand. He was in
Europe still, and another name than his
was on the little Office in Mrs. Corners
yard. To Maddy he now wrote frequent
ly; friendly, familiar letters, such as a
brother might write never referring to
the past, but telling her whatever he
thought would interest and please her.
Occasionally at first, and more frequently
afterward, he spoke of Margaret Ather-
stone, Lucy's younger sister, brilliant,
beautiful girl who reminded him, he said,
of Maddy, only she was saucer, and more
of tease not at all like Lucy. whom he
described as something perfectly angelic.
Her twenty-ffth birthday found her on
a sick bed, with DIR. Holbrook in attend
ance, and this was the reason given why
the marriage between herself and Guy
was again deferred. There had been
many weeks of pain. succeeded by long,
weary months of languor. and during all
this time the doctor had been with her
as the family physician. while Margaret
also had been constantly in attendance.
But Lucy was much better now. She
could sit up all day, and even walk lit
tie distance, assisted by the doctor and
Margaret, whose name had come to be
almost as familiar to Maddy as was that
of Lucy. Maddy did not say much to
Guy of Lucy, but she wondered why he
did not 90 for her, and wanted to talk
with him about it, but he was so changed
that she dared not. lie was not sociable,
as of old. and Agnes did not hesitate to
call him cross while Jessie complained
that he never romped or played with her
now. but sat all day long in a deep rev.
erie of some kind
On this account Maddy did not look
forward to the coming vacation as joy
fully as she would otherwise have done.
Still, it was always pleasant going home,
and she sat talking with her young friends
of all they expected to do, when a servant
entered the room, and glancing over the
group of girls, singled Maddy out, say
ing. as he placed an unsealed envelope
in her hand, "A telegram for Miss Clyde"
There was a blur before Maddy's eyes
that at 0rSt S0e COuIU hui SEE tledEli, ,
and Jessie, climbing on the bench beside
her. read aloud:
Your grandmother is dying. Come at
once. Agnes and Jessie will stay till
next week. GUY REMINGTON"
1t was impossible to go that afternoon,
but with the earliest dawn she was up,
and unmindful of the snow falling so rap
idly, started on that sad journey home.
1t was the first genuine storm of the sea
son. and 1t seemed resolved on making
amends for past neglect, sweeping in fu-
rious gusts against the windows, sitting
down in thick masses from the leaden
sky, and SO impeding the progress of the
train that the chill wintry night had clos

European Labor Leaders Alarmed
Over Increase in Homecoming
Contingent.
STEAMSHIPS ARE LOADED DOWN
Hundreds of Destitute Aliens Wan
dering Streets Of Paris on
Verge of Destitution.

The increasing contingents Of heme-
coming Italians, Lithuanians and other
Mediterranean steerage passengers are
disconcerting not only to the steamship
companies, who have inadequate facil-
ties for dealing with such sudden and
unexpected traffic, but to the labor
leaders Of Europe, who deny that these
newcomers have sufficient money to
pass the winter without working, and
declare that they will thus add to the
misery Of what Is sure to be hard win
ter among the European working
classes.
The figures given by the French la
Dor bureau as to the returning emil
grants are corroborated by Nicholas
Martin, agent of the American line,
who says that all the steerage capacity
Of every vessel has been taken until
Feb. l, while thousands more will be
unable to return to Europe before
spring. If this keeps up, Paris corre-
spotdent says, some special measures
must be taken to repatriate the hOrdes
of disappointed adventurers, for the
ordinary means are insufficient.

AeropIane's Circular Flight.

Henry Farman has continued his mar
velous flights at Paris with his famous
aeroplane, built by the Voisin brothers on
the general plan of the Chanute soarer.
Before a great and wildly enthusiastic
tbrong of people he repeatedly maneu-
yered his machine one kilometer in a COM
plete circle, returning to the point of de-
parture. This was regarded as demon
stration of practical aerial fight by ma
chimes heavier than air or without the
aid of gas bags. The machine first rolled
slowly along the ground on its two pneu-
smatic tired wheels; then, as the speed in
creased from the action Of the propellers,
the big winged thing shot off into the air
at a gentle angle, all the time Mr.. Far
man steering with apparent ease and con-
fidence and keeping an even keel and
steady course to the turning point and
back. The machine resembles huge
dragon fly, with upper and lower sets Of
wings attached to light frame carrying
motor, machinery and operator.

WORK OF IRRIGATION.
New Plans Adopted Contemplate
Many Improvements.

In the irrigation division OF the Ag-
ricutural Department the three main
lines Of work will be, as heretofore. dis
semination Of practical information,
scientific and technical investigations,
and reporting on irrigation conditions
in certain districts In view Of the fact
that probably about 100000 acres Of
land provided with water for irriga-
ton will be available for settlement at
the close Of 1903, 1t Is believed that In
no other way can more good be done
than in supplying practical information
through publications and expert adj
vice to the new settlers on this land,
and 1t Is therefore deemed advisable
to broaden the scope Of this work so
as to make 1t valuable to every class
Of farmers dependent upon irrigation
and to every project, whether public or
private.
The scientific and technical investga-
tions will be a continuation and extern
sion of what has already been done.
Prominent features Of the work will be
quantity of water which Is annually
spread over cropped soils, involving a
study Of evaporation, seepage and dis.
tribution Of losses, with view to Sc
curing higher economy in the use Of
water; the relation Of irrigation water
to quantity and quality of crop and the
adaptation Of methods to different soils
and crops. and a study Of the more
technical features of the measurement,
conveyance, storage and distribution OF
water on farms, and the various de-
vices used for pumping.
In the study of irrigation conditions
in different localities emphasis is to be
laid especially on possible improve
ments Of present methods which will
lead to more economical use Of water.
