INTERESTING FACTS OF new YORK CITY

~ NE baby born every three and
one-half minutes every day in
the year is the way New York
City did her share in 1907 toward the
propagation of the human species.
Deaths occurred only at the rate of
one in five and one-third minutes, and
from that it will be seen that the big
city would be able to grow with con-
siderable rapidity, even If immigration
ceased. Accidents last year resulted
In 1919 deaths; there We're 2S4 MUIR
ders and I'll suicides. There was
marriage every eight and one-third
minutes. The largest single cause of
death was consumption, which had
$500 victims Organic heart diseases
caused 1921 deaths.-Humun Life.

So it seems that organic heart trouble is
next to consumption in the cause of
deaths and yet people will continue to drink
coffee when the ablest men in the medical pro
fesson have time and again stated that
caffeine in coffee is frequently the direct
cause Of organic heart trouble. -

are shown over portion of the win
ter wheat belt The steadier tone of
the cotton and stock markets have
been helpful influence in wheat.
The heavy receipts in the northwest
will likely fall off, as the large arriv-
ais part due to stuff accumulated
through unfavorable weather and labo
troubles. There is strong bull party
operating in wheat still and a consid-
cradle short interest has been recent
ly created
Corn-Snows and unsettled weather
conditions will probably again inter
rupt corn movement. In spite of re-
peated predictions OF increased move

and those bulls who secured profits
In good shape are now showing dis
position to take hold of the market
again.
Oats--Continued small arrivals keep
the cash market relatively firm and

attractive purchase, especially the

WOMAN is RECOVERING
Mysterious Woman Claiming to Be
Minneapolis White Slave Is Get
ting Over Nervous Fright.

The mysterious woman who sudden
ly appeared Saturday afternoon at the
home Of Rev. c. f. Sewrey claiming
to be the victim of the white slave
traffic in Minneapolis, is rapidly re-
covering from her nervous fright
From her conversations until this
time. 1t was thought by some that she
was not mentally balanced, probably
due to the nature of her bitter ex-
perience.
This morning it was learned that
she is talking quite reasonably and is
now prepared to give more connect
ed history of her abduction In Minnea-
polls. 1t is yet a puzzle to her just
how anyone could have administered
a drug to either herself or husband
while in the cab they took from the
theatre to the station
Whether she still believes in the
sincerity of her husband or thinks
that he was implicated in her ruin,
has not been announced by any OF
the people to whom she has conided
the story. The ministers of the city
will ook closely into the matter and
communicate with the authorities In
Minneapolis to sift the matter to tho
bottom.

LOCAL LODGE OF ELks-WAs
CRITICALLY ILL IN ST. JOHNS
HOSPITAL SEVERAL WEEKS.

The Elks sent home their invalid
brother, William F. Garrison, OF Hunt.
ington, Ind, yesterday. Mr.. Garrison
has been in st. Johns hospital criti-
cally ill for several weeks. Some time
ago Mrs. Garrison joined her husband
here in order to be constantly at his
bedside during his illness.
His condition has improved in the
last week SO rapidly that it was felt
the journey home could be safely at
tempted. The invalid and his wife
left for Indiana last evening.
Mr.. Garrison was travelling through
North Dakota and this section of
the northwest when taken i'll a lit
tie over two months ago. He was
placed Immediately in st. Johns hos
pital where he has been since. At
one time it was felt that his life was
uncertain and Mrs. Garrison was sent

he will be fully recovered in a few
weeks IL he stands the trip as well
as expected and suffers no relapse be-
fore reaching home.

Chicago Gossip.

Chicago, ILL.,, Nov. ga few more
bulls on wheat were visible last night.
It was said that short interest is very
large and that the pressure from SELL
ers Is growing less, A point was made
by number of professionals who
watched developments closely that it
is easier to sell wheat than to buy it,
without affecting prices, whereas, until
the last few days it has been the re-
verse. Hedging sales are less numer-
Gus and the position of holders of cash
wheat is strengthening so that the
bulk of the pressure comes from the
short sellers. 1t was the general be-
lief among all classes of traders that
a nervous market is to be expected
until after the Argentine wheat crop
is harvested, and something more def
mite is known of the result. Com
mission houses who were moderately
bullish were not strong enough in their
convictions to make a bold stand, ana
are telling their clients that 1t is we'll
to take profits on all sharp bulges
from the present level, until the stu
alton becomes more clearly definitely.
Bear houses were less positive of their
position and advised caution in selling
short and by no means sell on breaks.

VIOLATORS ON THE RUN

Of whisky, ETC., within the city limits
o Fergus Falls are running in all di-

In the work of stopping illegal sales
the city authorities are being ably
aided by an organization known as the
Civic league. The latter has been sue
cessful in the collection Of convincing
evidence.

sort of fellow, the proprietor of a
so-called soft drink place, was found
guilty yesterday and heavily fined. A.

to plead guilty and pay the fine i'm
