Land which the Dutch burghers who considered themselves pretty good on a bargain, would have sold with eagerness at 85 an acre, is today selling for that price and more per inch. Here is a lease which calls for the payment of 825.51 per square foot rent for a space which covers only 1568 square feet on two floors. This valuable space Is located in the tower building they are going to erect on the corner of Broadway and Wall street, and run up to the height of 18 stories, or 235 feet. The room Is so precious that the elevators are opened right into the offices. It may be that enough business can be done in an office with such a lim ited area; but it seems doubtful. If it can be earned anywhere In New York, it is on the spot on which that build ing will be reared, as the corner of Wall and Broadway Is about the busi est place on the continent. The United States Cigar Store com pany will occupy this diminutive of fice. This company Is leasing all the desirable corners It can find, and al ready has even 400 stores In the city. But It will take a great many puffs to pay that rent, and the cigars sold there will have to be almost as costly as Mr. Morgan's, who Is reputed to pay 84 apiece for his strong cigars. However, he does not buy them In stores on Broadway, but imports them direct from Cuba. Pier Itontals Being Reduced. New York city has found that the policy of charging the great ocean steamship companies such very high rentals for the piers It lets them have, does not pay and that It meant the killing of the goose that was laying some very fine eggs for the city. Some of the companies began to make very active and vigorous efforts to get piers elsewhere, and it was not at all Im probable that Philadelphia, Boston, Newport News, Baltimore and New Orleans might get the huge vessels. But a change has come over the dreams of the city authorities, and in stead of considering the big lines as good subjects from which to squeeze money, they have begun to revise their rates and have given the steamship lines to understand that they wish to be considered their friends, and will make them at home, with lighter rents, and additional privileges. There are some things that a big city cannot do, any more than a small city, or an Individual. Drunk With $17,000 In Ills Clothes. One can't have a good time In this city any more Just as one wants It. Tlmo has been when a man could lie down on stoops or the steps In front of almost any building in the city, and so long as he was drunk nobody would disturb him, unless some thief on plunder bound. It did not matter 1 how much money he had In his clothes, so long as no dishonest man suspected it. But here comes August Weber, who falls asleep on a stoop In the most dangerous part of the City of Churches. He was full of liquor and his clothes were full of money, but nobody knew it until he was examined in court, and it was found that he had with him a bank roll of 817,000. It transpired that Weber had deserted his wife and was living around as a common hobo, not putting his money in the banks because he distrusted them. As his wife proved to be des titute the court made Weber peel off 85000 for his wife. Weber seemed to consider his spree very costly, as he did not Intend to give his wife a penny. Predicted Paralytic Stroke. How hard it Is to tell from all the diagnoses that physicians can make, what Is the matter. There seems to be no certain way of determining what a man's health really is. Gen. Ralph Brandeth, the wealthy clubman and business man, waged a fight against death four years after the doctors had said he could not live before an Im pending apoplectic stroke which they saw in his eyes when examined for life insurance, would make an end of him. He was apparently In perfect and rugged health when the doctors used an apthalmoscope, and declared that they discovered In his eye unmis takable Indications of a paralytic or apoplectic Btroke, which would doubt less be fatal. General Brandreth entered Bloom ingdale asylum, practically as a dead man, and allowed the doctors to con duct him through the narrow margin of years that the other doctors had left him, and died a short time ago as the doctors said he would, basing their predictions on the unfailing evidence afforded by the opthalmoscope. Religious Indians and Otherwise. Forty tepees have been erected by the religious element of the Nez Perce tribe and by Friday noon It is expect ed fully 600 of these Indians will be in camp here for the opening of the religious services which will open that evening. The members of the Second church reached here today from Kamlnh and the members of the First church will arrive from various points Saturday morning. Tepees have been on the grounds for the past week and more families are Joining the gathering each day. At the camp of the renegades great activity Ib shown In the preparation of the big celebration which will be opened Friday evening, A large dele gation from the Umatilla and Yakima reservations arc now en route to Lap wai and will be hcr6 for the opening ceremonies. The celebration by the renegades will be the most elaborate held for the past 20 years or since the uprising of Chief Joseph and his followers. The war parade and war dance will be features of the performance and It Is probnble these celebrations will be followed for a period of days. Lewis ton Teller. THE BEET CROP PAYS rxiox covNTi' will , HARVEST 40,000 TOXS. About 4100 Acres of Beets In Grand Romle Valley- Of This Amount 40410 Acres Is a Perfect Stand l iiuitllla India ms Now Working; In the Field Laibor Will Be Very Scarce. In reviewing tl le sugar beet situa tion In Union cot inty the La Grande Chronicle says: Superintendent Taylor Is busy with alterations and Ir aprovements at the sugar factory. TJ le object Is to have the machinery in first-class shape for the brown sugar output which will be made from recMue syrup of last year. The sumnaer run will begin early next monthf smd will continue from six to eight -weeks. It is expected to start the regular foil campaign no t later than the mld dlo of September If ft Is possible to do so. From present prospects It will be necessary to. begin early In order to get all the beets through. Manager Br.amwell la enthusiastic over tho beet co-op pros-poets. He says: "We have 4400 acres of beets this year and at leapt 4000 acres of this amount Is a perfect it and. The only tronble we have is the scarcity of help. wVe employ all the white help we possibly can and then fill out wft h what we can get. In addition to our home supply of help, we have now about 200 Japanese." This week a large numb r of Uma tilla Indians came over the . mountains to work In the beet fields, and they are welcomed for the reason that the beet growers are glfid to get anybody who can be of assistance In t he work of thinning and cultivating the crop. The enormous fruit yledd h as been a drawback In the way oif cairtng for the beet crop. Many jn ung. p0P'. and especially in the vlcl nlty f Cove, who have been at work In the beet field;?, have been called 1 nme to take care of the strawberries and cherries. and on this account the beet thinning force has been decreased L BeetgroW' ers are afraid that It maj ' be necessary to Recure Greeks If the labor supply cannot be obtained in ai rv other way, but this is something tr tat will occur only is a mntter of last f resort. The expected yield of beets this year is between 85,000 . and 49,000 tons, with a sugar outp at of not less mitn 10,000,000 pounds j, FI KL WILL RE CHE APER. Cost of Making Den- jturlze d Alcohol Is Very Mf derate. The following rer )0rt was prepared for the Phlladelphl .vorth Vmerican by an expert on f ne charao ter and uses of denaturize alcohol, w, "hlto the bill was pending in congress, and is of Interest at this time: Denaturlzed alcohol I ' alcohol to which has been added certain very repugnant ingredients lhch render its use as a beverage not only unde sirable, but impossible. The most Im proved method in foreljn countries, of which Germany is a leading ex ponent, is to add wood alcohol and some pyridine. The cost of alcohol for a period of 10 years, from the books of a large distillery in Peoria, III., shows It to be for 90 per cent strength 8 4-10 cents per wine gallon over and above the cost of the grain. A bushel of corn makes nearly three gallons of such alcohol, and as the residue from distilling is used for cattle feed, the cost of such alcohol Is practically fig ured directly from the price of such corn per bushel. Practically dena turlzed alcohol would cost about IS to 20 cents per gallon. . Our government now allows the makers of wine to use 3,600,000 gal lons of free alcohol to fortify the wine, and we allow free al.ohol in the making of vinegar. The commis sioner of internal revenue reports that there is o fraud under either of these exemptions from thj tax. For lighting purposes tests have been that one gallon of alcohol Is equal to two gallons of kerosene. Makes Brilliant Light. Alcohol when burned in an incan descent mantle lamp gives a clear, brilliant, wholesome and efficient light at a cost of V cent for 39 candle power per hou . No wick la used, as the combustion of the vapor is reg ulated easily by a little valve, and the light may be turned down low for the sick room or burned at Its utmost brilliancy. The burner of such a lamp will fit any ordinary kerosene lamp. As alcohol mixes with water, a fire started by an ac Ident Is easily put out. This Is not the case with either kerosene or gasoline, where water merely Increases the danger by scat tering the fire. For purposes of heating and cook ing denat trized alcohol Is most ad mirably adapted. It can compete with coal for the heating rooms, hall, etc., and there Is no waste of heat nor unwholesome vapors or gases. It is far cheaper to use, there being; bo ashes. When the alcohol heater la shut off that ends the expense. Will Cure Consumption. A. A. Herren, Finch, Ark., writes: "Foley's Honey and Tar is the best preparation for coughs, colds and lung trouble. I know that ' It has cured consumption In the first stages." You never heard of any one using Foley's Honey and Tar and not being satisfied. Koeppens' drug store. W. R. Ward of Dyersburg, Tenn., writes: "This Is to certify that I have used Orlno Laxative Fruit Syrup for chronto constipation, and it has proven, without a doubt, to be a thor ough, practical remedy for this trou ble, and it is with pleasure I offer my conscientious reference."
