THE RIVAL BROTHERS, OR,
 A MOTHERS SECRET

By an accident, such as occurs to most youngsters, Henry was discov- cred straying with his brother Eric by Mrs. Willings, wealthy lady, who at length prevailed upon her husband to allow her to adopt the boy. MT. Stevens scruples were only overcome by her neighbor, and Henry soon found himself "at home." Henry soon be- gan to look upon MT. and Mrs. Will ings as rightful father and mother. A lapse of eighteen years and Henry has passed his exams. and ball is being given his honor. Lydia, the niece of the Wilings, is the belle, and Henry finds her more than ordinarily attrac- tive to him. But they quarrel.
 In foreign city the young medico soon found "a new companion, for on the very day of his arrival he met Jesse, circus performer, while din- ing in fashionable restaurant. Jes- sic was working" as the profession
 
 her partner, strangely enough, being Eric, ihs unknown brother, of whose existence Henry was now in ignorance. At the circus that evening her new admirer occupied chair and saw the show given by the trapezist and her partner. A bouquet was later seen by Eric to be presented to Jessie. He jealously seized the card attached and inscribed, "Henry Willings, M. D."
 Jessie found her new lover awaiting her, and for once she did not allow Erie to escort her to her lodgings. The end of it was that Henry persuad- ed her to elope with him, and Eric, who had discovered his partners lack of faith, after furious chase, ar rived at the quay just as the steamer was we'll away over the harbor.
 At his home, Henry introduced Jes- sic to his foster parents. Some time later, Eric arrives in town. He sud- denly catches sight of Jessie and, jumping on the back of her car, suc- ceeds in gaining access to her rooms. Here he pleads with her to return to the old life, but with no further result than the promise from her to come and witness his first performance.
 At the circus, Eric gave his act, seen as daring piece of work upon the flying trapeze, midway through as an additional thrill the safety net being removed prior to his first sen- sational leap. Jessie, from her box saw his emotion, and dreaded a fall which sure enough came, a miracu- lous accident only preventing his com ing headlong to the tan of the ring. His foot had providentially become entangled in flying rope and he hung literally in mid-air, suspended by one foot only. In a trice Jessie was up the frail rope ladder, and the aston ished attendants saw sister profes- sional's brave attempt at rescue.
 At last she had him free, but the strain had been too much for them both and terrible fall took place. both Jessie and Erie being carried un- conscious into the dressing rooms. Henry Willings, strangely enough, happened to pass the circus at the time of the tragedy, but his services were of no avail, and Erie passed away immediately after the arrival of his mother. Henry, heart-broken, saw the death of his beloved, and only then did he learn that his rival in love had been his little playmate of long years ago.
 This special three-reel feature will be shown it the Gem Theatre Christ mas Day, December 18th.

that these quantities, vast as they are.

Eiuhty-six Tone Of salts Deposited
Annually for Each Square
Mile Drained by the Mis-.
sIssippi River.
AN ENORMOUS QUANTITY
The Average Flow Of This Mighty
Stream 10 Placed at Six Hum
dred and SIxty-four Cubic
Feet Per Second.

From every square mile drained by
the Mississippi So tons OF salts are de
posted annually in the Gulf OF Mexico
The average outflow Of the river Ia
placed at 6G4, 900 cubic feet per second
and from the analysis Of this water
the amount of material in solution
transported by the Mississippi has
been calculated 1t reaches the en-
ormous quantity Of 10s,432, 600 tons
per year. ...-
The amount Of sediment carried by
the Mississippi in addition to these
salts is enormous. The quantity
delivered annually to the Gulf OF Mex
leo, according to H. L. Abbott, Is s12,
COX, oOo. 900 pounds, or about 4oS, 900,
900 tons.
These figures are the result OF an in
vestigation of the quality OF western
stream waters made by the United
States geological survey to determine
their fitness for irrigation.
The average discharge Of salt and
mud per year by the Colorado rivel
amounts to 378,O00,000 tons. In ad
dition to the suspended solid matters
carried by this river there are also
enormous quantities OF dissolved sub
stances transported into the sea
These dissolved salts are 1850 ,00(
tons Of common salt, 3,74O,O00 tons O.
Glauber's salts, 1000, 900 tons of lime
100000 tons Of magnesium sulphatt
Or EPSON salts, making q total of 10.
94s. 900 tons OF dissolved matter an
nually carried into the Gull of Cali
fornia by this river. In spite OF thi:
enormous amount Of dissolved matter
the Colorado river Is not considered
to be a stream Of high mineraliza
ton for the western section Of thi'
country. This IL due to the fact tina
the amount of water is So enormous
in proportion to the dissolved salt!
that they are only very small pro
portion OF the total discharge.

Derivation az surnsmea.

Surnames are not what they seem.
For instance, Lind Is derived from q
Teutonic word meaning a snake"
The apparently quiet and harmless
surname Wren comes from a word
which denotes "rapine." Fish, though
such an innocent name in appearance,
originally meant ''impetuous."

Grain Review.

UNITED Press Leased Wire ServI ..
CHICAGO, March PA rise in
corn prices on Wednesday started a
bull movement in all the grain pits
that lasted until the opening Of the
market today and was the principal
factor regulating prices all week.
Wheat was surrounded by conditions
interpreted as bearish, heavier north
western receipts, favorable crop news
from the winter wheat belt and an un.
satisfactory export demand but shorts
covered in rush to buy on Thursday
and prices scared. Depression today
sliced off about all the gain, however,
and wheat closed the week with May
steady on last weeks closing price
and July only "a above.
The bull movement in corn was ex-
ploded today and the market sagged
but at the close May showed gain
OF one cent and July of LIS over last
weeks closing prices. The sudden rise
IN corn was based largely upon the
action OF one big firm with splendid
facilities for obtaining information;
other smaller traders falling in line
Wien the buying rush started.
Oats profited y for May and v
for July by the strength in corn.
stocks were regarded as ample and
every other factor affecting oats was
OF bearish nature.
PROVISIONS were strong early in the
week but began to sag yesterday. The
close today found prices only a few
cents higher than last Saturday.
Financial Review.
NEW YORK, March 21.-Repre,tent-
alive stocks in Wall street moved
through narrow range this week and
on the whole there was an improve
ment Of the situation. Some low
priced railroad stocks and speculative
issues were weak but the market un.
oertone was strong.
European selling by foreign hold
ers of railroad securities who were dis
turoed at reports OF financial condi-
IONS OF American roads, checked any
tendency to advance and the Ulster
crisis had slight segging effect on
