The steel rail market is booming
Mills have so many orders on hand
that they are calling in their sales,
men. Railroads continue to buy, de-
spite rising prices. They need the
rails. There is reported business
enough in sight to keep the steel
mills and shops busy for months to
come, and the turning point of the
new year will see more orders car
ried over than has been known for
several years. Confidence in the fu-
ture prosperity of the west was, in
fact, never greater, nor the prospects
better. OF course there are spots here
and there where the crops have failed,
or been partial failure, like sections
of Southern Nebraska and Texas and
Western Kansas, but they cut no fig
ure in the general prosperity that pre-
walls. 1t is the kind of business that
lasts, because it is built on a solid
basis.-Washington Herald.

The Mock Sun Phenomenon.

The mock sun" is a common phe-
nomenon in the Behring sea. On the
evening of June. 2, 1900, perhaps 100
miles south of ST. Lawrence island,
about $3.50 O'Clock, and past sunset,
the sun was visible as though half an
hour high, but appearing as a much
fiattened oval. Then another sun more
nearly round emerged from the hori-
zon beneath the Goose Egg" rising
quite rapidly until it blended with the
descending orb. Thereupon, instead
of settling below the horizon, the
night was quickly dissipated in the
air. This phenomenon was probably
due to the unequal density of several
super-imposed stratas OF air producing
refraction of the suns rays from be-
low the horizon.-Capt. Edwin Coffin
in National Magazine.

The Genealogical Question.

The business of life allows no spare
time any more. One cannot get rich
nowadays in office hours, nor become
great nor keep geographically inform
ed, nor do his share of talking and
listening. Everybody but the plumber
and paperhanger works overtime. How
the earth keeps up a necessary
amount of whirling in the old 24-hour
limit is more than we can understand
But she can't keep up the pace much
longer. She must have an extra hour.
And how to snatch it from the tail
end of eternity is the burning cosmo-
logical uestion.-Atlantic Magazine.

"Wait until nightfall."

bonfire, they found that there were

That is very ordinary" was the
Virginians comment. Three hun

Fatback is the local name for the
small mullet which abound in these
waters. And there is no mystery
about the ease with which they are
caught. On the food-tides after dark
they get into the shadows in the
streams for food. They have great
leapinS ability, and when surprised
make for deep water by leaps and
bounds. The glare from a boat
startles them. The body of the boat
being dark, they do not Gee it, ami

GREEK COINS ARE MODELS

orI0lnators Of Specie Have Never
Been Surpassed by Die slnkers.
The invention of coinage is due to
to the Greeks, most probably to the
bankers of Halicarnassos and adjacent
Asia Minor Greek colonies, who, to.
ward the end of the eighth century
B. c., began stamping the small gold
and electron ingots which passed
through their hands as currency with
a mark of some sort intended to guar
antee the weight and purity of the
metal; such ingots very soon assumed
round and more regular shape,
which we find already in old silver
coins from Aegina nearly contempor-
ary with Asia Minor beans" says
the Saturday Review.
Curious to say, none of the sur
rounding people with whom the Asi.
attic and European Greeks were in con-
stant communication, political or COM
mercial, took up the wonderful inven-
tion which at present seems to us of
such obvious necessity that we scarce
ly realize how Nle civilized world of
old could have got on without 1t. AS
a matter of fact, however, neither the
Phoenicians with their practical com
mercial sense, nor the Lydians or the
Persians, who claimed the supremacy
over the cities where the new cur
rency was initiated, nor of course the
Egyptians ever had coinage, till the
conquests of Alexander disseminated
the Greek civilization all through the
eastern world. The Romans came to
know 1t through the Greek cities in
Sicily and Magma Graecia and began
striking silver coins toward the begin
ming of the third century B. G.
In the meantime with the Greeks
die sinking, like everything else, had
fallen within the domain of art, and
their coins remain forever a standard
Of beauty for the artist and a model
Of perfection for the die snker.
