COPPER METAL MARKET.

A canvas of the copper metal trade
reveals the fact that a majority
hold the opinion that copper will
greatly increase in value from now
on, says the Boston Financial News.
AS far as any prediction of future
prices is concerned, Is cents Is al
most unanimously mentioned. A
large number of well informed in
terests point out that electrical
equipment companies are now ex-
~periencing a large increase in orders
in fact, the General Electric COM
pany u that it is doing a
business on the basis of an outturn
of $50, 5000 per annum. It's high
record was attained in 1907, with
a total of $70,977,000 as compared
with $43,147,OO0 in 1906 and $780,
$4,000 in 1905. If business con
tinues to improve during the next
year in proportion the six months
Just passed, the amount of manu-
featuring for 1909 will exceed that
of 1907, the banner year. This Is of
Importance to the copper producers
inasmuch as the condition of this
business is reflected by the demand
in electrical lines. Foreign ship
ments continue to be heavy. Ger
many and France are buying in large
quantities yet production in this
country continues considerably
ahead of consumption.

provision and of the government Of
ficers in Misunderstanding the laws.
The senate's maximum and min
imum provision was retained in
the main. 1t provides an increased
duty, amounting to % per cent ad
valorem, on goods brought into the
United States from countries dis
eliminating against the country.
The drawback provision OF the
Dingley law was restored with a
slight addition, controlling the use
of alcoholic articles for experiments.
The custom court was retained and
it's headquarters fixed in Washing
ton.
The principal difficulty in the
way of a clearly detailed comparison
between the present so-called Ding
ley law and the new bill lies in the
fact that in most of the more i'm
portant and sharply contested pro-
visions and schedules, the rear
rangement of classiications and shift
ing from specific to ad valorem
duties leaves few common terms In

On lumber some concessions were
made in spite of the fact that the

on hides, the reduction in the duties

latter schedule was reconstructed
and restored to 2 Is cents pei

In view of the action of the com.
ferees in putting hides on the free
list, a concession also was made to
the cattle industry by taking tallow
off the free list and making it duti-
able at 1 IL cents per pound.

MANY WILD HORSES BEING

these horses are being corraled is IN

southwest of Eureka.
These are the horses that the gov

second run of seven days was still
better, nearly ninety head being cor
raled. The horses are driven to Eu-

buyers who ship them east.
The result of the work of Mr.. Bar

be watched with much interest by
not only those in the immediate
vicinity where the animals are being
corralled, but in various parts of the
state where immense herds of these
wild horses range, and If he has sOlv-

ranchers and stockmen in Nevada,
who are pestered almost beyond en-

animals on the range.

McCIoud and Dicksie.


News of the fight in Williams Cache
reached Medicine Bend in the night.
Horsemen, filling in the gaps between
telephones leading to the north coun-
try, made the circuit complete, but the
accounts, confused and colored il the
repeating, came in a cloud of con-
fiicting rumors. In the streets, little
groups of men discussed the frag
mentary reports as they came from
the railroad Offices. Toward morning,
Sleepy Cat, nearer the scene of the
fight, began sending in telegraphic re-
ports in which truth and rumor were
strangely mixed. McCloud waited at
the wires all night, hoping for trust
worthy advices as to the result, but re-
ceived none. Even. during the morn
ing nothing came, and the silence
seemed more ominous than the bad
news of the early night. Routine bust
ness was almost suspended and Nc
Cloud and Rooney Lee kept the wires
warm with inquiries, but neither the
telephone nor the telegraph would
yield any definite word as to what had
actually happened in the Williams
Cache fight. 1t was easy to fear the

The LAUGH of a Woman.

Within an hour, Marion, working
over hat in the trimming room, was
startled to hear the cottage door open
and to see Dicksie quie unconcernedly
walk in. To Marion's exclamation OF
surprise she returned only laugh. 'T
have changed my mind, dear. / am
going to stay all night"
Marion kissed her approvingly.
Really, you are getting so sensible I
shan't know you, Dicksie. In fact, I
believe this is the most sensible thing
you were ever guilty Of"
"Glad you think So" returned Dick
sic, dryly, unpinning her hat; "ce--
tainly hope it is. Mr.. McCloud per-
suaded me it wasn't right for me to
ride home alone, and 1 knew better
than he what danger there was for
him in riding home with me-so here
I am. He is coming over for supper,
too, in a few minutes"
When McCIoud arrived he brought
with him a porterhouse steak, and
Marion was again driven from the
kitchen. At the end of an hour, Dick
sic, engrossed over the broiler, was
putting the finishing touches to the
steak, and McCloud, more engrossed,
was watching her, when a dif1dent
and surprised-loOking person appeared
in the kitchen doorway and put his
hand undecidedly on the casing. While
he stood, Dicksie turned abruptly to
McCloud.

At the noon hour McCloud was sign
ing letters when Dicksie Dunning
walked hurriedly up the hall and hest
tated in the passageway before the
open door of his Office. He gave an
exclamation as he pushed back his
chair. She was in her riding suit just
as she had slipped from her saddle.
ooh, Mr.. McCloud, have you heard the
awful news? Whispering Smith was
killed yesterday in Williams Cache by

McCloud stiffened a little. 'T hope
that can't be true. We have had

Just over the brow of the hill near
which the fight had taken place, a
man lay below ledge of granite. The
horse froTa which he had fallen was
grazing close by, but the man had
dragged himself out Of the binding
sun to the shade of the sagebrush
above the rock-the trail of it all lay
very plain on the hard ground. Watch
ing him narrowly, Smith, with his
prisoners ahead and the cowboys
riding in a circle behind, approached.
"Du Sang?"
The man in the sagebrush turned
his head.
Smith walked to him and bent
down. Are you suffering much, Du
Sang?"
The wounded man, sinking with
shock and internal hemorrhage, ut
tered string of oaths.
Smith listened quietly till he had
done; then he knelt beside him and
put his hand on Du Sang's hand. "Tell
me where you are hit, Du Sang. Put
your hand to it. Is it the stomach :?
Let me turn you on your side. Easy.
Does your belt hurt? Just minute,
now; can loosen that"
Il know you," muttered Du Sang,
thickly. Then his eyes-terrible,
rolling, pink eyes-brightened and he
swore violently.
''Du Sang, you are not bleeding
much, but I'm afraid you are badly
hurt" said Whispering Smith. rs there

A creek flowed at no great distance
below the hill, but the cowboys re-
fused to go for water. Whispering
Smith would have gone with Seagrue
and Karg, but Du Sang begged him

should kill him. Smith canvassed the
situation a moment. I'll put you on
