sEcRETAN COPPER CORNER.

translation for the Wall Street Journal from French banking review says: There are few events in the history of finance which made so deep and lasting an impression as the care fully elaborated plan of M. Secretan to make Paris the center of the cop per trade, with it's sudden collapse. As matten of fact, the operation was, at one stage, complete success. The existing stock Of copper, under the control of the syndicate, could have been distributed at a profit. which would not have been so large as to drain small local supplies which aggregate in time an enormous amount. If it had been more fully recognized that time should not Se given to allow of the opening of new mines and extensive development of those whose plant was limited. with a judicious dumping of the metal, by processes familiar enough to the United States, the object of M. Se- cretan, which was not wholly under the influence of personal motives, would have been accomplished. The principal financial support was obtain ed through the Compton National d'Escompte. This banking establish ment had innumerable and finely di- vided qualifications extended from the eastern Mediterranean to the Yellow sea- When, therefore, 1t found itself unable to meet it's obligations through the lookup of its liquid assets against copper collaterals. the government imediately came to it's assistance, and thus averted a disaster which would have compromised French influence throughout the eastern world.

Later the friendly relations between the two men were apparent. ly resumed. though subsequent de- velopments showed that the Indian was merely biding his time to be come revenged.
 On the day of the alleged murder Barkley approached Jacobs with the request that he accompany him to the top of a distant hill. where he be- lieved he had made a discovery that would be of value to both of them. Before starting on the walk the In dian is said to have provided himself with a revolver and scalping knife. land to have confded to an old In dian woman that Jacobs would never come back alive.
 When Barkley returned alone from the hill climb he is said to have con- fided to the old Indian woman how he had killed Jacobs. According to the story. when the two had reached the top of the hill. Barkley fell back few steps. took careful aim and shot Jacobs in the back of the head. Then he rushed forward with his scalping knife. according to his story, cut his victims throat and did a de- mon dance around the prostrate form.

FIFTY NINE KNOWN METALS

There are at least fifty-nine metals known to the chemist At the dawn of history there were only four-cop- per, tin, gold and silver. Three more were added by ancient civilization iron. lead and mercury. These seven were all that were known to classic antiquity and for the first thousand years of the Christian era. It is be l,eyed that copper, because found most abundantly in tho pure state, was the first to attract the attention of primitive man. Tin/was probably the second. the largest deposits be ing in those regions longest inhabited by the human race. Iron came into general use between thousand and fifteen hundred years before the Christian era.-Exchange.

MARION IS NOT
So BAD AFTER ALL
Local Minister Contrasts it
With Sandusky.
MARION ALL TO THE GOOD
The Contrast is Decidedly
Marked.
Rev. ID. II. Bailey at His Sunday
Evening Service Gives Ills Congre-
CATION u Brief Outline of His Re-
cent Vacation spent at Lakeside.

At Epworth NJ. Il Church, sunday
evening, Rev. ID. II. Bailey gave an
interesting talk before a large audi
ence relating of his recent vacation.
Many lessons were brought out in the
talk and he was heard with much in
terest throughout his address.
Rev. Mr.. Bailey recently spent ten
days at Lakeside on a brief vacation
and 1t was concerning the happen
ings on that trip that the minister
spoke last evening The minister
stated that he had spent some little
time in the city of Sandusky pre-
vious to his going TO Lakeside and
that he had learned to be appreciat-
i've Of the comparative reign of tenn
perance in this city. He said that
while in many instances the law was
not being enforced in this city, 1t
could be easily seen that conditions
were much better in this city than
they were in Sandusky, the city in
which more liquor of an intoxicat-
ing nature is sold than in any other
city of its size. 1t is very pleasing.
therefore, TO the person who Is de-
sirous of living in comparative quiet
in th srespect that tho law Is being
enforced TO such a degree that
quite wonderful difference may be
seen in the general character of the
city.
Passing on to the general theme
OF the evening. Rev. Mr.. Bailey re-
ferred 10 the high moral standard in
vogue at Lakeside, which place he
designated as a model one for quiet
study and recreation. He gave n con-
else report TO the members of his
congregation of the addresses which
were made in the conference which
was held at that place during the past
few days. There were very many
able thinkers in attendance at the
conference which was held there and
among these were Drs. Lewis and
Blake, the latter one of the most able
Sunday school workers of the land
DR. Blake was scheduled by the local
pastor TO be with the local school
within the near future and his coming
will be appreciated by the members
Of the church. DIR. Newis in his ad.
dress at the conference noted espe-
cially the falling off in the number
of children, who attend the public
schools who never are enrolled in the
High schools of the land. The same
question and problem is found in
the Sunday schools, the problem be-
ing to keep the children in the
church following their training in the
schools.
In other addresses at the confer
ence II was shown that thinkers OF
the world generally are coming to
study the Bible much more than the.
ology. The skepticism of the pres
ent day is foolish skepticism and with
study of the Bible this is found to
be true. In the Bible where skeptt
csm is found. it is only common sense
which leads to the ultimate conclusion
10 which the philosophy reaches.
In concluding his talk. Rev. Mr.
Bailey referred 10 some of the othei
addresses which were made in the
Bible conference and brought out
many lessons.

HANG GAUVETTE
SAYS THE COURT
Murdered Wife and Was Convict
ed After Plea of Insanity

SPOKANE. Wash. Feb. 20.-Jo-
seph NJ. Gauvette. the saloon man,
who murdered his wife last fall. and
who was recently tried on the charge
and found guilty was today sentenced
to hang as penalty for his crime.
Gauyette's deed was prompted by
motives of jealousy. 1t was brought
out in the evidence that for some
time before the murder was commit
ted he had suspicioned his wife, and
that his domestic relations and home
life were far from pleasant. At the
time of the trial he interposed as a
defense to the charge insanity, and
considerable expert evidence upon
the subject was adduced, but the
jury found that he was mentally
sound at the time and brought in a
verdict of murder in the first degree.

THUG ROBS
c. P. RONDEAU
Says He was Rendered InsensibIe
by Blow on Head

c. p Rondeau. the owner Of the
saddle and harness store at Il6
South Fourth street says that he
was sandbagged and robbed last
night while on his return to his home
at Lacrosse and his face this morn
ing bears a number OF ugly bruises
from the weapon used by the high
wayman. The character OF the wea-
pom used Is not known. but the
blows from It rendered Mr.. Rondeau
unconscious. and he remained In this
condition for several hours when he
revived. and took up his journey
home.
Robber Gives No Warning.
Mr.. Rondeau had just passed the
Michaelson grocery store at Lacrosse
when he was given the blow that
rendered him unconscious. Last
night he had gone to Spokane to meet
salesman for a wholesale harness
store, and Feturned on the owl
train. He left the train at Lacrosse
and had passed the Michaelson groc-
cry store, and was following a trail
leading through clump OF trees to
his home when he was struck by an
instrument on the head. No warn
ing was given, and Mr.. Rondeau be-
lieyes that he must have remained in
an unconscious condition for several
hours as he did not arrive home until
between two and three o'clock. Mr..
Rondeau on his departure for spok-
ane in the evening had taken but 1T
tie money with him, and all that the
robs2r secured was 81.
Relieves RObber Waited for Him.
Mr.. Rondeau is of the opinion that
the highwayman lay in wait for him
that the robbery had been deliber-
ately planned. He says that from
time to time in the past he has been
IN the habit Of carrying with him on
his way home large sums Of money
at times amounts as large as $500
He believes that this fact had become
In some way known, and that the
robber last night labored under the
impression that he had on his person
large sum OF money. He is unable
to give description OF his assailant
and there is no clue for the officers
to work on.
