Confused Reports
On Copper Market

NEW YORK, May 31.-Reports
on the volume of copper buying

that there is practically no mar

Reports on prices range from
305 cents a pound elf. European
base ports, to 8.45 cents. The ma
jority, however, range from 8.15
to 8.25 cents. At the latter price,
the indicated market has declined

old Mother Nature.

TN FARMER BROWNS house was
a Canary, and that Canary was a
good singer, but he did his sing
ing wholly in the daytime. That
Is to say, he never sang in the
dark. Lately there had been a singer
in the dark, singer in the very mid
die of the night and who that singer
was was a mystery. Mother Brown
had heard him. Farmer Brown had
heard him. Farmer Browns Boy had
heard him In the darkness of night,
and all three had heard him in the
evening after the lights were lighted,
and each had thought the singer to be
in different place. 1t was all very
mysterious, very mysterious, indeed.
Then followed several days in which
the strange singing was not heard at
all, and the queer happening was
gradually passing from their minds,
when late one afternoon Mother
Brown abruptly stopped to listen.
What is it?" asked Farmer Browns
Boy as be stepped into the room and
noticed the attitude Of his mother.
She merely put her fingers on her
lips and made signs to him to keep
quiet. Motionless and silent, they
waited until the patience of Farmer
Browns Boy was about exhausted.
He still didn't know what it was all
about. He was just opening his lips
to ask when the mysterious song,
somewhat faint, as if the singer we're
at distance or in another room, was
heard. This time both he and his
mother were sure that it came from
closet.
AS soon as the song ceased Mother
Brown gently opened the closet door.
No singer or sign of possible singer
was to be seen. She stood Just back

Browns Boy waited just as quietly.
Presently the song began, louder now.
There was no doubt that 1t came
from inside that closet Quietly she
peeked around the edge Of the door.
The song continued. 1t was happy
little song. Vainly she looked for the
singer. Not living thing was to be
seen in that closet. Meanwhile the
singing had ceased. She waited. It
began again. This time she was sure
she knew exactly where the song
came from. She beckoned and Farmer
Browns Boy tip-toed over to join her.
She pointed to a corner of the closet.
There was nothing there but an old
carpet sweeper
1T Is In that" whispered Mother
Brown.
1t certainly did sound so, yet what
sort of creature could or would be
singing in an old carpet-sweeper? 1t
sounded like the song of a bird, but
no bird could get into that thing.
For that matter, no bird could get
into the closet, or into the house
either And, anyway. there were no
birds about save the Winter visitors,
none of whom could sing like that.
Farmer Browns Boy reached out
and took hold of the sweeper. The
singing ceased. He lifted it and start
ed to open it. Something jumped out
of it and scampered across the closet
floor. 1t disappeared in a hole in the
corner. Farmer Browns Boy stared
at his mother, and she stared at him.

Mother Brown looked thoughtful.
'It seems to me I have heard of some

Is unnecessary to be completely ex-

to play at either the two or the three

Is made on q relatively weak hand
when a one bid of the opponents has
been passed out to you. The distri-

to the old auction negative double
than any other-a hand with strength
in three suits: but it must be at least
as strong as:

you can see, Vests hand, above, is
of that pattern. Had South bid one
diamond. his double might have been
condoned; but South opened with an
auction one no trump bid. That did
not deter West, however. He blithely
doubled just the same. North prop

South doubled that! Vests best res

He can save three tricks out of the
wreckage, but instead led by heaven

THIS name Is derived from the
Gaelic "arra," meaning pledge.
The ancient Irish house Of O'Hair.
O'Hare, O'Hara, according to the old
Irish pedigrees, can be traced to Ir,
the fifth son Of Milesius. The Clan
O'Hare was very formidable one in
its early history and many clans bear
ing names similar to O'Hare sprang
from this clan. such clans as OHir,
O'Harr and OHeir.
The O'Hairs were seated in County
Down, Ireland, in the City of Newry.
This town, which is now practically an
isolated spot, was in olden times one
OF the most important cities OF Ire
land. Excavations and remains Of
earthquakes show that powerful race
existed there even before the dawn
of authentic history. This 'town is
shut in by the Newry Mountains and
it was there that the O'Hares lived
and flourished until the eighteenth
century.
One of the early representatives Of
this name in America was Michael
OHare. He was born in 1749 in
County Down and the next mention
of him is found in war records of the
American Revolution. He served in
both the Pennsylvania and Virginia
forces. His name is found on the pay
rolls of the 9th Virginia Regiment.
After the war he settled near Lex
ington, Va. but later moved to Mount
Sterling, KY.

Distance and Duration.

Within the last few years a num-
Der of terrifying curious, curiously ter

which represent the flower Of thought
from the best minds Of the day. The
picture they present is one of utter
despair in ever being able to under
stand our universe.
The astronomers are the most ter
rifying. They speak Of distance We
can't even begin to imagine. What
ever our home in space may be. We
get the notion that our earth means
practically nothing in comparison with

A strange loneliness creeps upon us
as We contemplate the stars in the
light Of modern astronomy.
