A L MYERS is married again. This
~ is the third time that AL has
n dived into the matrimonial sea.
Nearly everybody between the
Missouri river and the Pacific coast
knows Al Myers, and he has host of
friends in Salt Lake. For the benefit
Of the few who do not know Myers, it
might be well to say that Myers is one
of the half-dozen men who put Gold
field, New, permanently on the map.
1t doesn It make any particular differ
ence just where Myers came from but
he went into Goldfeld early in the game
and became interested in Combination
Fraction now a part Of the Consolidated
holdings. Mining speculation was at
high tide soon after and one day Myers
sold out for something like $3,O00,000.
Being frugal despite periodical bouts
with Dame Fortune. through the me.
dunn Of roulette or faro bank, Myers
not only held on to the greater part of
the several millions, but has largely
added to it.
Occasionally, while resident Of
Goldfeld, Myers would drop into the
Northern saloon and gambling house
and drop $4,000 to $4,000 at an even
ing's play, but he would Just as regu-
larly go back the next night and win
anywhere from $4,000 to $4,000. SO,
in the long run. it will be seen that
Myers was not losing anything,
But to. get back to Myers's latest
matrimonial venture. Coming out Of
Chicago recently, en- route to Los An
geles, Myers found himself seated op.
posite very pretty girl. whose desti-
nation also was Los Angeles. Myers
was lonesome and finally he looked
across at the pretty girl and smiled
The girl was lonesome and she too
smiled. That settled IT, Myers told the
girl the story of his life-bow he had
wrested S3,o0O,oo0 out Of the desert
and when they reached Los Angeles
they were married IT is said that
Myers and his bride will shortly make
an extended tour of Europe The wom-
an in the case is Miss Hcdwig Jab-
lonski, who, before her marriage to
Myers, was a resident of Chicago.
Myers said that he and his first wife
loved each other. but she died. His
second wife. he says, knew that he was
rich and speculated upon him, after
which they were divorced. "'Now am

D of oats and 2I0, 100000 bushels of
barley These yields are large. and
the crops on the whole are likely to

There are many In the trade who
believe that foreigners will continue

before winter sets in. and corn will
be a favorite with importing countries
after January lst. whep she supply

ed to have been pretty well absorbed,
II the crop there has been estimated

Corn Is doing we'll throughout the

have been followed by high temporal

crop OF unusual size. provided frost

Some Of the hest traders in the Chi

do much better
Many u.iiions of bushels of eats
have already been sold for export, and
export sales are sure to be seen during

have been abroad recently. return
with but one idea. and that is that
importing countries will be forced
to take our oats In large quantities in
