A new record 1ms boon estab
lished for New York Stock Fx
change seats. A sale of otic was
made recently for $$3,000. which,
with the initiation fee, makes the
Et ice $$4,000- It wan bought by
Ir. frank Y ( raves, who was
formerly a financial writer on oue
of the New York newspajHTs.
Lovers of the luxurious have
awakened to the possibility of n
shortage in the supply of diamonds.
As proof they point with the linger
of authority (borrowed from the
itching hand of the DeP.etis sndi
cate) to the recent advance of 5 pet
cent in the value of rouh gems
This is the second rise in price since
Jauuary: last year there were of 5
percent each, ami in lour yens
the increase has approximated
nearly 50 per cent. No wonder so
many people consider diamond, a
more profitable investment that the.
gilt edge securities which are juM
dow the favorites in Wall street.
What is pronounced by mining
experts to be the greatest discovery
in the gold mining history of the
United States has just been made
at the Bullfrog, on the property of
the Bullfrog Kxtensioii Minim.;
Company, adjoining tho original
Bullfrog mine. A tunnel driven
into the side of the mountain for a
distance of 150 feet revealed in the
working a narrow Beam of nlmost
pure tellurium ore that assays Sj
per cent pure gold. The neatest
approach to a discovery of this
kind was made at the Isalx-lla
mine, in Cripple Creek, eight yrnrs
ago. The richest tellurium en
countered there was 70 ter cent
pure gold. A piece of rock, weigh
ing 30 pounds, was exhibited
through which a seam could bt
seen with the naked eye. It is
Jrom an eighth to a quarter ot an
inch in thickness and in the. opinion
of experts its occurrence denotes an
extraordinary richness. Prop
erties in the immediate vicinity of
the discovery have enhanced in
value one thousand per cent in a
day. A tremendous boom is on.
School Attendance Smaller Than Last
Year.
Prof. Strange reports 300 pupils
enrolled in the schools, 43 in the
High School and 257 iu the Graded

there are many children still at the
hopjards that will bo back in school
later on, but that even when they
are back that the attendance will be
smaller than last year. Regular
recitations commenced Tuesday
morning, lessons having been as
signed Monday.
Editor Boozed Too Much.
The following announcement ap
peared in yesterday's Daily Grants
Pass Herald:
"Owing to hia excessive indul
gence in the flowing bowl it has

H. Smith, former manager and part
owner of the Daily Herald, to sever

interest having been acquired by
Lee W. Henry, who will henceforth
be editor and manager."

Stock
Show Exhibit the Largest
Seen on the Coast.
Ever
The greatest livestock show ever
held west of the Rockies opens at
the Lewis and Clark Imposition
Tuesday. There are already more
than 1500 hea t of stock 011 hand,
and 400 head additional are due to
day and tomorrow. Stockmen, too
are arriving with every train from
points throughout the West, Middle
West and Pacific Const, and there
is much enthusiasm over the pros
pects of the great Oregon Khow.
There is $o,ooo iu cash awards
to be made for fine stock, but
money is not the incentive for the
attendance 01 an army of stockmen.
Stockgrowcrs from afar see iu the
Pacific Coast a great new market
for improved stock. The coast
country is generally regarded as a
practically undeveloped stock field,
which at the same time possesses
the greatest of possibilities. Re
lieving a heavy trade with Japan
and tho Orient is to be built up in
improve'! livestock, Ivastem raisers
wish to establish their breeds here.
They realize that, as the Pacific
Coast stock men dispose of their
animals, they will naturally look to
the Ivist ami Middle West to re-
pleni-.li the Mipply.
J'o Oiegoii Mock in en, and, iu
fact, to those of the entire North
west, the exhibition means the
most. It will do much to establish
that nature has jieculiarly adapted
this country lor the raising of fine
stock; that this country is natur
ally the world's greatest dairying
center. New bleeds will be intro-
luced, and the breeding of better
1 lasses of stock encouraged.
J he show is located on the gov
ernment peninsula, at the expo
wition, and is easy of access. Ar
rangements have beon made lor a
lino of bouts to run direct to the
stock grounds from tho foot of Mor
rison street. J5y the street car
route tho only walking ucceHsary is
across the exposition grounds.
The stuck is arranged in 12
stables, having iu all 1500 stalls.
There are entered horses, cows,
mules, sheep and goats and swine.
The stables are erected in two rows.
At the south end is the show ring,
whero most of the awards will be
made. The judges will commence
their work with the opening day
and the making .f awards will con
tinue until the end of the eshi-
bifion.
In all, there are iii.oo entries.
The states, represented are Oregon,
California, Washington, Montana,
British Columbia. Nebraska. Wy-j
oming, Ohio, Indiano, Missouti, j
Minnesota, Illinois and Iowa. The '
moving spirit in the exhibit is M, I
1). Wisdom, who organized thej
show and is in charge. The huge j
number of entries is due largely to
the labors of Mr. Wisdom, who
speut two months visiting the tock- j
raining eeuters of the country in the !
interest of the show. The revised j

The Willamette Meteorite.
A visitor from Mars or some other
distant region or planet lias just ar
rived at the Lewis and Clark Ex
position. This massive meteorite of
mauy tons' weight is tho biggest
shooting star that has ever boon
found in the western hemisphete
and perhaps the heaviest meteorite
ever found in any land. It lias not
yet been weighed, but its weight
has been estimated at about IS to "Jit
tons
Twelve of the most powerful
horses in Portland were required to
haul this mysterious mass of metal
from the steamer to tho exposition
grounds, whero a special platform
has been erected for its reception,
and a government official took
charge of it us of some valuable
prize.
The meteorite was found in the
woods of Clackamas county, Ore
gon, iu the untumn ef 1 '.Ml'.!, about
two miles from Oregon City and l."

Two analyses of the Willamette Ilis I,,a'" sttm- :'
iron have been made, small particles
having been chipped off tho mass
for that purpose. Ono analyses
shows iron, 'J1.40; nickel, N.o". The
other analysis shows iron, HI. (!.";
nickel, 7. I'M; cobalt, -.21 ; phospho
rus, .O'.t. The Hpeciltc grnyity of
the iron is 7.7.
The color of the exterior of tho
meteorite is a dull reddish brown.
Tho mass is much oxidized, with a
tendency to scale in small flakes.
The fractured surface is more
coarsely granular in structure than
other iron aud is of a formation
peculiar to itsetf. It is 11 strange
tnass of molten metal, a mysterious
visitor from an unknown world, an
object of curiosity to the general
public and of intense interest to tho
scientific world. In those who visit

Could Build Drive to the Moon.
Portland, Sept. 17. "Oregoti
contains one sixth of the timber in
the United States, approximating
100,000,000,000 feet. Valued at
1 2 per thousand feet, this timber
would be worth $3,600,000,000, or
more than the total cost of all the
railroad equipment in the Union.
It is tho most densely timbered
area in the world. Hoards made
from the timber of one inch iu
thickness would build a walk one
half mile wide around the world at
the equator, a driveway to the
moon 250 feet wide, or a bridge to
Mars 6pS, 000,000 miles away, 15
inches wide. California produced
ingoldsiuee 1848 $1, ioo.ooo.cxkj;
Oregon will produce lumber valued
at three times that sum in the pres
ent century."
These were the statements of
Oregon's wealth in timber made
last night by Professor Kdmund P.
Sheldon in lecture on "The Forests
of Oregoti" before the State
Academy of Sciences.
Gold is the most malleable of all
metals, and those next in order are
silver, copper, platinum, iron, alum
inum, tin, zinc and lead.
