GO TO THE ak Barber Shop THE GENTLEMAN BURGLAR. He Can Exist Only In Fiction, Never In Real Life. Whenever a thief who is dressed otherwise than in rags falls into the police net there are chronicled the adventures of a "gentleman burglar." Such a being is, of course, impossible. He is a literary creation, like the "Invisible Man," the Frankenstein monster, Kipling's Mowgli and the rest of the crew of prodigies that dwell within book covers. As a character in fiction the "gentleman burglar" could be made plausible and picturesque, for when we get into the realm of fancy there is an implied contract that the reader shall accept the author's premises and not bother about possibilities. A burglar is just a thief—about the meancest of thieves. To a man endowed with qualities of refinement and consideration of others and honor—which are the attributes of a gentleman—burglary or other theft is impossible. The pride of such a man, his regard for his own opinion of himself, would prevent his sneaking into another man's house and taking his plate or his wife's jewelry. Then it must be remembered that the burglar is prepared to do murder to accomplish his robberies, and the idea of a gentleman committing murder for gain is too inconsistent even for fiCTION. A "gentleman burglar" is a contradiction of terms, like a brave coward or a tall pygmy. He may be better dressed or his booty may be larger than The Weekly Gazette, Established 1870.

She Got the Week. "A young American girl, on her first trip to Italy, entered a shop in search of black darning wool," says a writer in Harper's Basar. "She spoke no Italian, the clerk spoke no English. She pantomimed darning a hole and pointed to her stocking. The clerk brought white darning cotton. She showed that her stocking was black, and black darning cotton was produced. But she wanted wool. A long pause, then 'Ba-a' bleated the American girl. She got the wool."

STATE'S MINERAL WEALTH Report of the State Minerologist Showing Production of Minerals in Various Counties. State Mineralogist Lewis E. Aubury reports the yield and value of mineral substances of California for 1902, as per returns received at the State Mining Bureau, San Francisco, in answer to inquiries sent to producers. The total mineral production of the year is shown to be of a value of $35,069,105, an increase of $713,124 over the previous year's product of $34,355,981. Placed in the order of their value, the principal mineral products of the state are gold, petroleum, copper, borax, clays and their products, quicksilver and silver. The total value of the metallic substances, including precious metals, for 1902 was $22,052,796, which includes gold, silver, mineral paint, quicksilver, copper, lead, manganese, platinum and chrome. The silver is given in commercial value ($616,412), or amount received for it by producers; if given in colling value, the sum would be about doubled. The bureau has never independently collected statistics of precious metal output, but has used totals and distribution by county, as obtained at the United States Mint, San Francisco, where they have the advantages of verification by figures of receipts at U.S. mint and assay offices and private refineries and smelters throughout the United States. The total value of non-metallic sub- Merced.....1,656 Yolo.....450 Unapportioned.....73,619 Total.....$35,069,105 It is to be noted that for the first time since these detailed statistics were gathered; three counties show a product of over three million dollars. Shasta county, while showing a very material falling off in its total, is still in the lead. The decrease from the previous year is $3,007,522, which is owing to the lower prices for copper and the prevalence of miners' strikes at the leading producing mines, causing them to close down part of the year. Shasta owes its precedence to copper, Kern to its petroleum, and San Bernardino to its borax. While gold is still the leading mining product, its yield no longer puts the greatest gold producing county in the first place. Nevada county still leads in gold and silver ($2,149,654), though closely followed by Calaveras ($2,119,173); but when total mineral products are considered Calaveras takes the rank above Nevada county, the difference being caused by the value of copper produced in Calaveras. As usual, Shasta county still makes the largest yield of silver, owing to so much silver-bearing quartz being used as flux in the copper smelting operations. Gold is more widely distributed than any other mineral substance thus far mined in California, 35 counties out of 57 in the state showing a gold yield in 1902, and it is known to exist in several others. According to the returns received from producers at the San Francisco mint, the gold yield for 1902 was $16,910,320, and was derived from the following counties, which are named in the order of their respective gold product for the year: Nevada, Cala- BUSY HANDLING FRUITS R. G. Dun's Monthly Review of Trade Conditions for September in Southern California Southern California is still busy handling the fruit crop. There is little ground for complaint this year from growers in this section. Almost every crop has yielded average quantity and fair prices have ruled. Resultant damage from early rain was slight. The injury to hay, grain and beans will not materially affect the output. Raisins on trays in a few instances dropped a grade in quality. The bean harvest is progressing rapidly. Fruit drying continues and grape crushing at wineries is in full swing. Prices paid by wine men,$10 and $12 a ton, amounting in some varieties to 50 per cent. of that paid last year. Is causing much complaint from vineyardists. The sugar campaign will probably continue a month or six weeks longer. The beet crop is not up to early estimates, but is in excess of last year. Sugar content is high, averaging about 17 per cent. From Oxnard sugar is now going forward at the rate of eight carloads a day. Output for the season at Los Alamitos is estimated at 7500 tons. Bean prices advanced during the month. The size of the Ventura crop seems to be a subject for much difference of opinion and it seems now to be up to a counting of the sacks after threshing to determine whether it is 500,000 or 600,000. Market for dried fruit is steady and The total value of non-metallic substances was $3,706,368, which includes borax, coal, chrysophrase, mineral waters, salt, asbestos, infusorial earth, gypsum, magnesite, pyrites, lithia mica, fullers earth, quartz crystals, mica, soda, tourmaline and turquoise. The total value of hydro-carbons and gases was $5,184,387, an increase of $1,651,678, including asphalt, bituminous rock, natural gas and petroleum. The gas ($99,443) is given in value of that commercially utilized. The petroleum price is the average per barrel f.o.b. at the wells or stations in each county. The number of barrels of oil produced was 14,356,910, valued at $4,692,189, as against 7,710,315 barrels in 1901, valued at $2,961,102. The increase in value has not kept pace with increase in amount, owing to prevalence of low prices in the oil fields, especially in the valley counties. The total value of structural materials was $4,109,023, an increase of $1,161,748 over the previous year. This includes brick and pottery clays. Portland cement, lime and limestone, maidenstone, rubble and concrete rock, paving blocks, marble, granite, sandstone, serpentine, slate and glass sand. The relative value of the principal mineral products of the state is as follows: First, gold; second, petroleum; third, copper; fourth, borax; fifth, clays and their products; sixth, quicksilver; seventh, silver. In the previous year the copper values were more than those of petroleum, quicksilver was fourth and borax sixth. The relative rank of the counties of the state, in point of mineral production, is given in the following table. In each case the value given includes that of all the mineral substances combined produced in the respective counties for the year. Some counties produce in addition to gold and silver, five, six or seven other substances, while other counties which produce little or no gold or silver, produce in large quantities quicksilver, mineral oils, copper, lead, asphalt, structural materials, etc. The figures include aggregate value of all mineral products, including precious metals. These latter are based as stated upon United States mint returns for the year. The term "unapportioned" includes total value of such substances as are grouped to avoid disclosing private business, as in the case of single operations in a single county. In the large and complete table just published in Bulletin No. 28 by the State Mining Bureau, from which these figures are taken, the amount and value of each substance in the respective counties is as follows: - Copper: lead, manganese, platinum and chrome. - Silver is given in commercial value ($816,412), or amount received for it by producers; if given in colling value, the sum would be about doubled. - The bureau has never independently collected statistics of precious metal output, but has used totals and distribution by county, as obtained at the United States Mint, San Francisco, where they have the advantages of verification by figures of receipts at U.S. mint and assay offices and private refineries and smelters throughout the United States.

Sept. 14th, 1903.] The following is a second report on the condition of the walnut crop in this consular district: The latest advices from the walnutgrowing districts of the valley of the Isere are to the effect that the coming crop is in a fine condition. All reports agree that this year the yield promises to be very abundant, and the fruit itself of an excellent, choice quality, providing always that nothing untoward occurs to mar these prospects before the harvest time, now near at hand. Thus far this season the weather has been all that could be desired, while the nuts themselves are well formed, healthy in appearance and free from spots. The special "enemy" to be feared in this region, as it concerns growing crops, aside from general weather conditions, is the hailstorm, which, following a term of undue heat, may break out suddenly and develop an intensity that in an hour's time may inflict irreparable damage. Storms of this kind are greatly dreaded by agriculturists in these parts, and very naturally so, too, for often in the space of one short hour, or even less, what was before a flourishing cornfield, vineyard or fruit garden is reduced to a desolate waste. Five such occurred last year about this time, beating to the ground vast quantities of nuts and leaving many of those that remained on the SELF INDUCED AILMENTS. The Folly of Nursing the Habit of Not Feeling Well. Few people realize that their alliments are largely self induced, says O. S. Marden in Success. They get into a habit of not feeling well. If they get up in the morning with a slight headache or some other trifling indisposition, instead of triving to rise above this conditio they take a positive pleasure to expatiating upon their feelings to any one who will listen. Instead of combating the tendency to illness by filling the lungs with pure, fresh air they dose themselves with "headache tablets" or some other patent specific warranted to cure whatever ill they think they are suffering from. They begin to pity themselves and try to attract pity and sympathy from others. Unconsciously by detalling and dwelling upon their symptoms they re-enforce the first simp ple suggestions of illness by a whole army of thoughts and fears and images of disease until they are unattended to do a day's work in their homes or offices. There is greater danger that young girls who are delicate while growing up and lounge around the house and lay down whenever they feel the least bit out of sorts will form a habit of invaldism when they reach maturity. How often do we see such girls "brace up" at once when anything happens which interests or excites them! An invitation to a reception or a ball or any other pleasant social function acts like a tonic. For the time being an instantaneous cure is effected. They are as well as anybody until after the entertainment. Indulgent mothers are frequently to blame for this physical and mental laxness, for it is nothing more, on the part of their daughters. A lounge or sofa is a positive curse in many a home, because it is such a temptation to lie growing crops, aside from general weather conditions, is the hailstorm, which, following a term of undue heat, may break out suddenly and develop an intensity that in an hour's time may inflict irreparable damage. Storms of this kind are greatly dreaded by agriculturists in these parts, and very naturally so, too, for often in the space of one short hour, or even less, what was before a flourishing cornfield, vineyard or fruit garden is reduced to a desolate waste. Five such occurred last year about this time, beating to the ground vast quantities of nuts and leaving many of those that remained on the trees marred and blackened, and reducing a harvestable crop to one-half its usual magnitude in thirty minutes. It is to be hoped that such a disaster may not be repeated this year. These ripening days of September have thus far been abnormally warm, but the weather is now becoming cooler, and rain is falling without, however, any marked change for the worse. Should a sudden disaster befall the crops, I will hasten to inform the Department of State. As to the yield of the harvest, it would not be prudent to venture an opinion as yet, since the best experts are disposed to make varying estimates for special reasons from their own point of view. In any event, presupposing favorable conditions, it may be said safely that it will be large—probably one-half larger than the harvest of last year, or say, to fix an approximate figure, about 40,000 bales of 100 kilos (220 pounds) each. Of this quantity it is expected that the American market will absorb one-half, especially if the quality of the nuts proves to be fine, as it is anticipated, and prices rule easy. As to the opening prices, it would seem, in view of the promise of an abundant crop, that low figures are likely to prevail this season as compared with those paid last year, for it is reported that within the last few days some few contracts have been concluded between buyers in America and sellers here, for future deliveries of the new crop, on the basis of 73 and 75 francs per 100 kilos, c. i. f. New York (about 6 cents per pound), and some enterprising dealers are said to be offering to sell walnuts of the new crop on the American market today at 72 francs per 100 kilos, same conditions. Saves Two from Death "Our little daughter had an almost fatal attack of whooping cough and bronchitis," writes Mrs. W. K. Haviland of Armonk, N. Y., "but when all other remedies failed we saved her life with Dr. King's New Discovery. Our niece, who had consumption in an advanced stage, also used this wonderful medicine and today she is perfectly well." Desperate throat and lung diseases yield to Dr. King's New Discovery as to no other medicine on earth. Infallible for coughs and colds. 50c and $1 bottles guaranteed by Hutchinson. Trial bottles free. "Some men are so fortunate in securing good wives," remarked the man who wanted to be sympathetic. "Yes," replied Henpeck. "Now, my wife is just like sunshine about the house."

They are as well as anybody until after the entertainment. Indulgent mothers are frequently to blame for this physical and mental laziness, for it is nothing more, on the part of their daughters. A lounge or sofa is a positive curse in many a home, because it is such a temptation to lie down and succumb to trifling suggestions of illness or the least indisposition. A habit of giving in whenever you "don't feel like it" is fatal to all achievement and ruinous to self discipline, self poise and nobility and dignity of bearing. QUAINT BATAVIA. Java's Picturesque Town and the People One Meets There. Imagine a town of giant dolls' houses built in Burmese and Japanese style, trim avenues of beautiful trees, broad clean streets and thousands of grown up dolls masquerading in oriental fancy dress, the picture book of one's childhood animated—that is Batavia. The streets are paraded listlessly by gangs of blue garbed convicts, who pick up cigar ends, bits of paper and fruit peel. The cleanliness of the streets is astonishing. A man in Batavia once threw a piece of banana peel on the groundd, and looking back a moment afterward, he felt reproached by the sight of that wretched piece of peel, the only blot on the immaculate cleanness of the streets. For awhile his dignity fought with his sense of decency. Then he returned, picked up the offending peel, and feeling very foolish—carried it until he saw a convenient opportunity for disposing of it. Representatives of many nations congregate in Batavia, blue gowned Javanese, wearing white pith helmets shaped like inverted saucers; portly Chinese merchants, dressed in a grotesque combination of yellow silk clothes and billycock hats of Hampstead Heath, their pigtails interwoven with blue silk; lean, tawny Malays, Hindoos, Javanese and effeminate looking Cingalese jostle each other on the sidewalks. It is impossible for a casual observer to distinguish the sex of a Cingalee as the men have delicate, refined features, are clean shaven, fasten their long hair behind their heads in woman fashion and wear skirts that sweep the ground. The dress of the Javanese women merits a detailed description, as the Batavian Dutch ladies have adopted the native dress for morning wear. A long strip of native cloth, called a sarong, is wound round and round toe body beneath the armpits and reaches almost to the ankles. An abbreviated Eton jacket, called a kopela, covers the shoulders, and out of doors ladies' slippers are worn on stockingless feet, and a paper parasol is carried. The Batavian Dutch do not make their toilets unless they go out of doors, until the afternoon, so that one may see men in pyjamas and women in the nation's fashion on the van... Some men are so fortunate in securing good wives," remarked the man who wanted to be sympathetic. "Yes," replied Henpeck. "Now, my wife is just like sunshine about the house." Indeed! Well—er—really, I'm surprised——" "Yes. She's never there at all at night. Woman's rights meetings and all that, you know."—Philadelphia Press.

"Young man," he said, "I can never thank you sufficiently for your heroic act. You incurred an awful risk in saving my only daughter." "None whatever, sir," replied the amateur life-saver. "I am already married."—Chicago Daily News. Deafness cannot be cured by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous services.
