Severally in conspicuous. which jointly terminate q slender peninsula some twenty miles in length forming the barrier between False bay and the Atlantic ocean on the west. These three headlands. lying near together and commonly undivided on map of moderate scale. are locally designated Cape Point.

SHAVING THE PIG.
An Incident That Chief Justice chass
 Wanted to Forget.


 Salmon F. Chase. governor of Ohio. senator of the United States. secretary of the United States treasury and chief justice of the supreme court of the United States. once had an encounter with q pig that is worth telling.
 When boy he attended Il private boarding school kept by his uncle the Episcopal bishop of Ohio. He did the chores for his uncle during the school term and worked on the farm during the summer. One day his uncle told his nephew that he should kill and dress a pig at the close of the school that day.
 caught the pig and killed it. And now the question was how to get the bris- ties of. He had heard of farmers scalding hogs, so he soused the pig into barrel of hot water. He either held the pig in the water too long. or did not have 1t hot enough. for in spite of all his scraping the bristles would not come of. He then thought of his uncle's razors, and getting them he shaved the. pig from nose to tail.
 When the bishop returned he con- gratulated his nephew on the splendid appearance of the pork. But when he tried to shave the next day he dis covered that the razors would not work" What he said and did we may imagine. but we do not know. Chief Justice Chase was very dig nified man. His private secretary. MT. Didier. says that he had little humor In his composition President Lincoln once related the foregoing story at a meeting of the cabinet. but Mir. Chase did not like 1t very we'll and the pres ilent never referred to it again.

Story of the Patent on the screw W'th

 Perhaps the shortest patent applfca- tion extant is the one on file in the patent office at Washington. which reads. '1 claim patent on screw with gimlet point

 This patent was held by the Ameri- can Screw company of Providence. k. l.. and before the patent ran out and 1t was impossible for others to manu- facture it without damage suits this company made tremendous profits. The demand for the gimlet pointed screw was. of course immense. and the company did not know what to do with it's profits.
 All of its dray horses were carefully selected blacks. and tremendous prices were paid for good stock. The harness was of patent leather trimmed with red, while the wagons plying back and forth between the factory and the docks or the railroad had red under gear to match the harness trimmings and the wheels were decorated with gold leaf.

COPPER COMPANIES
 IN BIG COMBINATIONS.

NEW YORK: The Guggenheim Exploration Company, holding con- cern for stocks in various mining and smelting properties, will be dissolv- ed in the near future and the assets divided among shareholders. Rum ors of this action, heard frequently during the last three months, were confirmed yesterday at the same time as announcement was made of steps being taken by the Kennecott Cop per Company to buy up the stock of the Braden Copper company. The terms of the Exploration company's plan are expected to be made public before the close of the week.
 The Guggenheim Exploration Com pany has outstanding $20,793,3O0 in stock and owns these securities: $4,045,040 Utah Copper Company's stock, $6,950,0O0 common stock of the American Smelling & Refining company, $1,543.OOO stock of the Ray Consolidated Copper company, $4S8,- 750 stock of the Chino Copper Com pany. and majority of the stock of the Yukon Gold company. Until re- gently $3.4O0,OO0 series A preferred stock of the American Shelter Secur- tiles Company was owned, but t!lis was sold Eugene Meyer, Jr., & Co.,. and by them distributed to investors The company also holds valuable ore lands in Alaska, and in the treasury is $14,OOO,O00 cash.
 The 4O4.504 shares of the Utah Copper stock will be sold to the Ken necott Copper company, payment be- ing made in Kennecott stock on q reported basis one one and one-fourth shares of Kennecott for each share ct Utah. This block of Utah shares constitutes the largest single hold ing of the company's outstanding stock.
 President Stephen Birch of the Kennecott Company issued 8 state ment saying that leading sharehold- CTS had practically come to terms on the proposed purchase of EraGen shares, and that the plan would be submitted to directors and stockhold- CTS for their approval Opportunity will be given all Braden sto"knold- CTS, said he, to accept the terms con- sidered by the majority interests pay ment to be made either in cash or in Kennecott stock.
 "The properties of the companies" said the statement. while situated far apart geographically, are admir- ably fitted to supplement each other in their workings and future output of copper at low cost. It is expect ed that arrangements may also be made by which some of the steam ships now used by the Kennecott Company, in the transport of ore from Alaska may be used during the Alaskan Winter in connection with the Braden mines, which are in Chilli, and that such an arrangement may indirectly have material effect upon the country's South American trade"
