U K, , HON. JAMES R. KENNEY, of Pennsylvania.
TW.MM.ynr of Reading, Pa., noted orator, author and scientist.
~I can honestly and conscientiously say from my long experience tn dealing
want men in this country, that there is no other one thing which will help me so
much tn life as a thorough knowledge of Personal Magnetism,” says Hort.
Jatnee R- Keeney, “and for this reason I’accepted the chairmanship of the com
mittee on distribution of works on Personal Magnetism and Hypnotism for the
American College of Sciences of Philadelphia.
“The real secrets of Personal Magnetism and Hypnotism have always been
jealously guarded by the few who knew them and kept them from the masses
of the people. One who understands these sciences has an inestimable advan
tage in the race of life. I want to put this information in the hands of every
ambitious man and woman in this country.
"The American College of Science has just appropriated SIO,OOO to be used in
printing books for free distribution, and if this does not supply the demand it
will appropriate SIO,OOO more. The books are absolutely free. They do not cost
you a single cent.
"Tell me what kind of work you are engaged in; or, if sick, the disease from
which you suffer, and I will send you the book which will put you on the road
to success, health and strength. It matters not how successful you are. I will
guarantee to help you achieve greater success. The work which I will send you,
is from the pens of the most eminent specialists of the country; it is richly il
lustrated with the finest half tone engravings, and is intensely interesting front
start to finish. It has been the means of changing the whole current in the lives’
of hundreds of persons who were ready to give up in despair. You can learn
home in a few days and use personal magnetism in your dally work without
the knowledge of your most intimate friends. You can use it to influence others;
you can use it to keep others from influencing you. You can positively cure
the most obstinate chronic diseases and banish all bad habits.
"If you have not met with the business or social success which you desire;
• if you are not successful in winning and holding friends; if. you are sick and
Are tired of taking drugs that do not cure; if you care to develop your memory
or any ofiher mental faculty to a higher state of perfection; or lastly, if you
wish to possess that subtle, invisible, intangible power that sways and rules
the minds of men, you should write me today and let me send you a free copy of
’ our new book. It will prove a revelation to you.” Address JAMES R. KEN

RICH COLO VEINS
IN CENTER OF CITY OF HELENA,
A LARGE GOLD MINE IS
UNEARTHED.
HELENA, Mon.. Nov. 9.—The site of the
new federal building in this city is the
scene of a rich, gold strike and by the
terms of the clause inserted in the con
tract between the Chicago Construction
company, of Chicago and the » nited
States government the latter will be the
sole beneficiary of the discovery.
This clause provides that all minerals
found on the property shall belong to the
government, consequently tne construc
tion company will be compelled to mine
the ore, while ...» government will receive
the profit.
There have been reports for several
days that a strike had been made, but it
was not until today that these received
verification, when some workmen engaged
in the excavation improvised an ore pan
and panned out as high as SIOO. Assays
made shows free milling gold of the value
of $lB and S2O per ton. While the exact
width of the vein has not yeti been ascer
tained, mining experts estimate that it
will be fully 35, perhaps 40 feet, making
it a strike of large proportions. The vein
extends across the entire block from
southeast to northwest and then goes di
rectly beneath the residence of Col. Thom
as Cruse, the millionaire banker, who,
twenty years ago, discovered the richest
gold mine in Montana, the “Drum Lum
mon,” which he afterwards sold to the
Rothschilds for £600,000.

Murphy & Cs.’s Cotton Letter.
NEW YORK, Nev. 9.r-The Chronlele re
port for «he week referred to the effect of
killing frost at .a number of places, which
was newi 'to many in the trade. In faet
the shewing was a pretty poor one but the
persistent tteties es bear leaders to discour
age buyers in the pretended belief in an enor
mous crop has been e great obstacle to the
support which conservative people feel the
market deserves fltatlstieally the eltuatien
is strong and If All wo hear aa t» the ex
tent .of the, short Interest la true we ehall
witness a bUll market of magnitude in the
course of time. True believers in a erep Qf
'over 11,666.666 Are numerous *but these who
eannet see over 10,566.666 or less are equally'
numerous and the latter have tbe advantage
of a small movement so far and the additional
advantage that everything points to a top
crop of small dimensions even under meet
favorable weather conditions the remaining
of the season. In the Liverpool market yes
terday prices were a point higher. Tbe ehanees
are for a decrease in movement the coming
week although it is too early to expect mudh
falling off in receipts jtfst yet. New York
opened at an advance es 1 to 3 points on
small dealings. Both sides were extremely
cautious but boar houses were advising the
customers of the possibility of a better mar
ket in view of the decline already estab
lished which they believed was all that
should be looked for taking into consider
ation the faet that receipts have been heavy
and that the top crop question was one of
uncertainty. Port receipts estimated for the
day at 45.006, against 31,000 last year. Much
colder weather was Indicated for the south
west.

Murphy & Co.’s Grain Letter.
NEW YORK. Nov. 9.—Wheat-Selling of
wheat proved a feature of late dealings yes
terday and more profit taking wae In evidence
this morning. Wheat has had a substantial ad
vance this week for the first time in about two
months and a great many operators were con
tented with the profits shown and at the same
time unwilling to continue their Interest over
Sunday. Abroad there was no change in prices
and the market here opened at about last
night's level. The selling, however, soon filled
the buying orders and prices lost ground later
In the morning. There was no weakness tn
the tone during the first hour and the decline
of %c failed to change the tempe rof the av
erage trader. A similar reaction in nearly all
grains in Chicago carried prices lower at one
time, but reports from the west were not what
ceuld be called of a bearlah nature. Aa thia
Is still the seasen of Increasing supplies and
of wheat abundance, it is to be expected that
offerings of wheat will Increase considerably
as a result of the advance In prices. The price
has gained 3 cents a bushel of late. Many thou
sands of bushels of wheat In the next month
will be sold at this figure, which was held at a
lower level. For this reason operators do not
look for a sudden advance at this time of the
year. Prices appear to tend downward, a high
er level with wheat attracting more attention
as the season advances. The situation is more
encouraging than otherwise and a broader spec
ulation is anticipated when Argentine and
Russian news ean be verified. December wheat
here sold at 79%c, or back to the low price of
yesterday. In Chicago the same option sold at
72%e. In the northwest receipts were 798 cars,
against 501 care last year.
Corn and oats suffered under profit taking
smales, as did wheat, though the tone of
both was extremely steady. Oats continue to be
actively traded In with fancy prices looked for
In both coarse grains before the new crop. Ex
ports of wheat this week were 5.489,645 bushels,
against 3,555,507 bushels last year and since
July Ist 112,000,000 bushels, against 86,000,000
bushels last year. Corn exports were 708.284
bushels, against 8,287.827 bushels last year and
for the season 17,447,000 bushels, against 59,463,-
000 bushels last year.

R. G. Dun & Co.’s Review.
R. G. Dun A Co.’s review says:
Little relief has been afforded the leading
manufacturing industry in the matter of
transporting facilities. In fact, the situa
tion on the whole Is less satisfactory since in
ability to secure coke has brought about the
banking of some furnaces. . This In turn tends
to harden the market for pig iron, though no
actual alteration in prices nas’ occurred ex
cept at Philadelphia, where 25 cents a ton
more is readily paid. As this Industry Is
considered the best business baropi©er, pres
ent conditions and future prospects are cer
tainly most encouraging, for-’ ordete are abun
dant and plants enlarging capacity in order to
handle the growing business
Textile mills in New England are busy
and there is no longer any fear of labor con
troversy at Fall River. Prim cloths have
ceased to be inflated, standard widths re
suming the former quotation of 3 cents and
meeting with a fair demand. Domestic buy
ing of all staple cottons is seasonably quiet
and the views of exporters are still below
those of sellers. Recent declines In the raw ,
material have not weakened prices, as there
was no commensurate advance in goods when
the cotton market was rising. Reports from
the south indicate that spindles are well oc
cupied. .....
Weather conditions were the chief faetsra
in determining price changes of staple prod
ucts. Low temperature :in grain growing
states brought a higher .level of quotatlona.
corn rising 23 cents above the figure, ruling at
the corresponding date last year, and 26 eenta
over 1899. These advances of more' than 56
per cent are far in exceae of the ratio' of
loss in production and establishes a fletitioas
price level which curtailed Atlantic exporta to
642.142 bushels for the week,- against 2,526.176
bushels last year and 3.458,164 two years ago.
On tbe other hand, wheat is moving out
freely at both coasts, shipments from the
United States for the week amounting to
5,561.472 bushels, against 8.210,184 bushels in
the same week of 1900 and 3,927.203 in 1899.
Vigorous milling and foreign demands caused
a fair advance In prices to about last year’s
figure, despite the difference in output.
Cotton weakened still further, port and In
terior movements indicating a better crop than
was anticipated. At the lower-price, hawr
ever, exports are heavy and tend to prevent
any serious reaction.
Failures for the week numbered 243 in the
United States, against 201 last year, and 53 In
Canada, against 18 last year. , j
