Surviving "49 ers," argonauts In tho stampede 59 years ago to California, are to bo gueBts of honor at a dinner Septem ber 12, under tho auspice of tho California society of Chicago, and tljo preparations promise realism, even to a pralrlo scliooner. In fnct, tho handful of men who crossed tho plalnB or rouniUil Cape Horn are to bo convoyed from their hotel to tho banquet in n prairie schooner, with banners, as of old, proclaiming "Off to tho Gold Fields of California." taking tho risks of thlrBt, famine, and savago street cars, as .the same men. dared hardships and Indians to go to tho primitive 'Frisco. Now the wealth of tho 1,500,000 people of Qallfomla Is over threo billion dol lars, railroads alone having an In vestment in tho st$to of $350,694,- 1-000, as compared with Illinois, whoro $805,057,000 Is the total rail road Investment, Including tho greatest railway center In the world, at Chicago. In tho 'Frisco of today, tho bank deposits are 2 per cent of the deposits in all the banks of the United States, except Pittsburg. Tho city bullded by tho Argonauts of '49 and later, has grown until Its bank clearings wore In 1907 over $2,000,- 000; those of other cities of Its cIbjs being Kansas City. $1,649,175,013; Minneapolis, $1.15S, 462,150; Cin cinnati, $1,361,879,950; Baltimore, $1,472,911,207; New Orleans, $956. 538, 295; Pittsburg, $2,743,570. 484; Cleveland. $897,170,784; De troit, $711,610,404. . .-, Snnkey Hynnif?. Chlcngo, Sept. 3. Tho memorial to Ira D: Snnkey at Moody church was unique In many respects and grow more imprcsslvo in its solem nity as each hymn was Bung, tho climax being tho Blnglng without ac companiment, of pcrhnps tho best known of the Sankoy hymns: "Wo shall know each other bottor When tho mists havo rolled away." Moody and Sankoy gospel hymns have been Bung from on end of th.li country to tho other for many years In tho big churches of tho cities and In tho Utile whlto churches of tho frontier, until nono has become bot tor known thnn Sankcy's. Many of the moro familiar ones wero sung, Including "Am I n Soldlor of tho " Cross," "God Will Tnko Caro of You," and "Tho Lord's Our Rock, n Shelter In tho Tlmo of Storm."

In 1907, 25,850 'mills made re turns, nnd their production was over 40 blU'on feet of lumber. This Is believed to include. 95 por cent of the .actual cut. In 190C, 22,398 mills reported about 37 V4 billion foot. Since according to thcso figures nearly 29 por cent moro mills re ported last year thnn the year be fore, while the Increase In produc tion yns only a little over seven per cent, It might be thought .thnt tho amount actually manufactured must have beon greater In tho cnrllor year. This, however, would be a too hasty. Inference, for It is nlmost wholly among mills of small lndlvd ualQutput that tho gain In tho num bor of establishments reporting has been'hiadc. A classification of the returns by states' and regions throws additional light 'on tho situation. Individual changes, ns, for examplo, tho ro- markablo rise of Texao from eighth to third place among tho lumber- producing stntcs, are doubtless ac counted for primarily by tho greater accuracy of the 1907 figures; but In tho majority of cases tho advances nnd declines can bo traced 4o spe cific Influences. Before tho yenr closed tho gcnornl business depression wnB severely felt In the lumbr Industry. It was not, howver1, the most Important cnuso of n falling oft in tho production of tho yenr where a falling off occurred, For decline In production took place only In certain regions. Tho south la tho 'region of greatest activity In lumber production, and yellow p'no tho most Important wood, forming 33 per cent of tho entire cub of tho couatry. Tho cut of yellow plno roportjd shows an lucrcaso of 13 por cont over that of 1906. In tho early part of tho year mnny qf tho southern mills cut bo heavily thnt, In spite of tho curtailed output which followed tho business dis turbance later, tho total was greater than ovor boforo. But In both tho Lake states and tho northwesft u Binnller cut wns reported than for 1900, though the number of mills reporting Increased. In tho Lnko states the falling off evidenced tho waning supply of whlto plno. Michigan, which for many years led all tho states In lumber production, and then gave way to Wisconsin, snnk In 1907 from fourth to seventh plnco, while Wisconsin wont from third to fifth. Minnesota as lato as 1905 held fourth place. Last year It wont from seventh to ninth. ft wns not until tho latter '90s thnt tho no nth displaced this group of states as the most Important source of lumber supply. Slnco southern plno Is abundant In all the Atlantic const states from tho Carollnns to Texas, tho roglon as a whole will doubtless maintain Its lending position for some' years, in spite of tho fnct that att tho present rate tho bulk of tho timber will bo gono In nnothor dec ado; but in totals of production by individual stateB the leadership has Blrjce 1005 been held by Washing ton. Tho figures of production show that during 1907 Washington fell of! very decidely from Its huge cut of 1906, whllo Its sister state, Oregon, is credited with a slight increase In Its total, In tho early part of tho year Washington suffered from a car shortage, and at tho end the combined effects of business disturb result of this plank. Tho Denver plntform and the tin tlonal tlckot Is Btrongly endorsed. The plnnks of which spectnl mon tlon Is mndo follew: iiiu cuuuuiiuuiuuii oi iiio proposed i In the troublesome complications campaign. Tho Taft men call attention, to, the fact that Foraker,' Ip his sp'occh, Bald: "I am for Taft," whllo Taft, In his rcmnrks, did not say thnt ho was for Foraker or anyone else, ns a mnttor of faot, Tho supposed surrender of Fora ker Is the talk of the campaign horo today except when Taft Is present, llo lms refused consistently to dl diss the Incident In nny .way. .
