"1 believe that I'tah will on day produce more mineral wealth than any other state In the entire country," aald a gentleman who had at one time made a tour of the country." When I was In the then territory I made a pm iwllng trip In to the Utah reservation, located In the northeastern corner of the state. During the trip myself and partner came upon one of the most re' murKitoie curiosities In Mile West, a spring of mineral wax. Fnough had bubbled out upon the surface of the ground to liave satisfied the demand for ten years. It was then worth four dollara a pound, and was used for the Insulation of electric wires, yet there was enough In sight at half that price to have mode us two rich for life, If we could have carried It to market Two things stood In the way the man date of the government and the diffi culty of transporting the stuff overland several hundred mllea Into Provo. One of theso daya the reservation will be turned Into the public domain, and the wealth It contains will flow Into some body's pocket. As it Is now, not a soul Is permitted to trouble a single one of Its reaooroea. Well, we paaaed on and left the spring with a sigh that might have been heard at 'Frisco. QUAINT COCRT CUSTOMS. From the Ashton Iteporter. Though not Imperious, Her Majesty is a rigorous upholder of old customs, especially In connection with court matters. One quaint custom, dating from the time of the second George, which Is still observed, Is that of sol unmly announcing for the queen's bene fit at the dinner table the name of the cook who prepared the dishes. Before each courke Is partaken of a clerk In waiting of the kitchen nutkrs the for FOR THE VICTOR Thousand I' poo Thousands Do Honv age to the President-elect. MRS. M'KINLEY IS INDISPOSED The Exciting Events of the Paat Few Months Have Broken Down the Lady's Health. Canton, November 7. Much as Pres ident-elect McKlnley haa desired to get his wife from the excitement about his Canton home. It was decided this even ing that It was best for Mrs. McKlnley not to attempt the trip before Wednes day or Thursday of next week. Instead of Monday, aa expected. The scenes of congratulations and Jollifications have continued without cessation and today thousands of people have march ed through the streets and gathered about hours before tonight's jollifica tion began. At the breakfast table Ma jor McKlnley was signalled by far mers, who have traveled miles to come to Canton, and who tapped at the win dow and beckoned him to their greet ings. He responded to their manifesta tions of good will by securing a Jardi niere of chrysanthemums and going to the side door made them happy by giving them such floral beauties as are seldom seen anywhere. All day ling the Joyous crowds marched the streets and filled the sidewalks. They came In special trains and special oars, on reg ular trains and by carriages, horse back, bicycle and afoot. Chief Marshal Harry Frease started the final great campaign parade to night before 8 o'clock and Canton had a pyrotechnlcai blase of glory such as she had never enjoyed before In the eventful days which have passed.

In recent jinrs we have heard a ttrcat deal about the millions of tramps the millions out of work, and the nturv iiiB millions or pauperized milllones. llcuvcu knows the number is large enough without exaggerating It. Let the men who talk this use a little com mon sense, and they will cut down their ligures 75 per cot. We have never had .my w here neur a million trumps In this country; while as for criminal outlaws men w ho live by crime outside of the penitentiaries, It Is doubtful If there are 5,000 In the whole country. Kinley and a score of friends reviewed the parade aa it passed his house. Owing to Mrs. McKinley's health. It is expected that this will end the Jolli fication parade, and the McKlnley yell, which for months has reigned supreme, will now take a rest In the hope of gaining greater strength for the days of the Inaugural ceremonies.

"No, I ain't going to marry," persist ed Ethel. Are you going to be an old maid?" her mother asked. "No, I'm going to be a widow, like Aunt Mary, 'cause she always dresses In black and looks so pretty and happy" BETTER HIS YELLOW JACKET. San Francisco, November 7.

WHEAT MARKETS. Chicago. November 7. The feeling in wheat was somewhat easier on general liquidating and taking of profits, and after this selling pressure ceased, the , market again turned up, selling to i$H for December and X4' for May, with final figures showing little change. j The action of the market was due partially to Liverpool advices, the ad vance there not coming to expectations, considering the bulge her yoatarday. Argentine shipments were larger at 120,000 bushels against 48,000 bushels for the same week last year. On the other hand, the northwestern movement was smaller than last week.

The Democratic Cambridge, Mass., November Shattered, battered and helplessly fight ing against heavy odds, the crippled team of Harvard fell before the prow ess of old Nassau this afternoon, and tonight the Princeton Tiger Is trium phant In victory. Twelve to nothing was the score of the memorable con test, but It does not tell of the plucky. stubborn stand the crimson made suits. was wag ed for two hours back and forth across the white-lined gridiron. The pace at times was terrific. There had been many fierce assaults that left young gladiators stretched out silent, and motionless on the sod, like so many logs. Delay after delay came from the successive Injured, but, with grim de termination and grit, player after play er struggled plucklly and faithfully back Into the game. It was clean, man ly football, however. There were no end of brilliant punts, plenty of hair raising encounters and exciting mo menta, but from a scientific football standpoint the game lacked the splen did organization of force and brilliant tactics which have characterized so many memorable battles on Hampdon Park and Manhattan field. The game In miniature shows how Harvard start ed In playing entirely on the defensive. They repulsed the Tigers' fielding at tacks and hardly ever attempted to ad vance the ball themselves. They played more strongly than they knew. ' and their first half. In which neither team crossed the coveted goal Ilnev was a su perb battle. The second half saw a change of tactics. Harvard started out Irt the offensive and mnctfroirToos: up" the task of defending her territory wits, such good effect that, aided materially by Balrd's splendid kicking, their goal was never placed In Jeopardy.
