Mora than 1,000 persona annually dlsap-S;-ar in the United States and are never heard from again. At first blush the as sertion aeetna Incredible, but polios statis tics furnish confirmation. The actual fig ures, based en a conservative calcula tion, are even more alarm Ins than those !vn. In tact, the reports of the police de triments of tha larger cities show that in I he twelve months Just passed 1S.OS of the persons who disappeared during- the year were never reported as found; but the shrewd polios officers, accustomed to the eccentricities of human nature, are of the r pinion that the return of many thousands of these parsons, through shame or Indlf ferera, was never reported at polloe head quarters. But even after making allowance for this feature of tba case, it Is reasonably certain that more than 6,000 persons were swallowed up In oblivion. Tha tragedies of real Ufa hidden within these peculiar eases, if they could but be brought to light, would rival many of the novels penned by tha world's greatest writ ers. No subject that can be Imagined has such weird fascination as that of tha thou sands and thousands who have gone down this grand canyon of oblivion. It would be possible to fill many pages with tha absorbing stoiiea of thesi curious cases, but nearly every reader of the news papers, whether he lire in village, town or city, is probably acquainted with soma In stance of tha kind concerning either friend or relative. Men and women who have lost all they have treasured most In life In this manner go about vacantly, numbly, ever waiting for tba return of tba missing one a dream that never comes true. Plates; for a Last Soa. At this very day a gray-haired and once broad-shouldered chemist whose dally busi ness is transacted in tha heart of tha Phlla delphla financial district. Is pining away for lie Ions of a son who strangely disappeared mors inmn iwemy years ego. iu hid was mo lei of all a son should be. He was bright. .uelllgent. ambitious and looked forward to a successful; career In life. One evening ha bads his parents goodby, with the In- tenlion of visiting a friend In another seo tlon of the city; and ha never returned home again. Who can Imagine -the fright ful anxiety, the fever of unrest that has perpetually haunted the father since that i fateful day? Great shocks, unexpected trtgedles and even the awful calamities ot life can be met and endured by strong , l ' ii l 1 1 ' u . i a i ncfiiin U 111 1 1 1.1111 HI... n aa surrounds a case of this kind eats Into the heart and wears away body and mind. What can be said of such an unwritten tragedy? Where is the boy? Is be dead? Is ha alive? Who can tell? If by a miracle of chtnee ha should be In the land of the living and these lines greet his eye, ha may have the certainty that one word from him contains sufficient power to dispel the sorrow of a lifetime that a brief message from him may enable a grief-stricken par ent to die In peace. Instances of this kind could be readily multiplied. Soma through the publicity given them In the dally press become faml liar to the majority of the people. Count less others never go- farther than the fire side of those who are left behind to mourn the loss of the missing ones. A short time ago a brave-hearted, seafaring man died In tha suburbs of Philadelphia died of a broken heart. It was freely aald by those who knew him beet. Nearly three decades before his curly headed boy, the apple of his eye, had mysteriously disappeared. A careful search failed to discover him. Money, time, energy, everything that could be offered up was freely sacrificed in a ceaseless endeavor to learn of the where abouts of the boy; but all In vain. The father searched the four corners of the earth, only to meet with repeated and never ending disappointment. Tha Charley Ross rase for to such la reference made created a great sensation In its day and hour; but now similar disappearances are part of tha (telly, weekly and monthly reports of the 'tolloe. and odd to say, they go almost un fcictloed except by the handful of persona who are directly Interested. v . Paeelved Mysteries, The police and detective agencies pride themselves quite properly upon the thor oughness of their systems; but there are nme mysteries which seem to be feeyond .Itelr power and which eventually are laid ' side In that monumental dust pile of hls- ory labeled "Unsolved Mysteries. " A brief rlance at the methods employed by these i."Vf'Mtc agencies will give an Idea of the ssing ones. For Instance, a father or mother hurries Into a polloe station and Informs tha an thoritlee that a brother or cousin has dis appeared from home, and that no trace of him has been seen for many days. The first step Is to obtain a complete description of tha missing man. and after that an at tempt Is made to learn of his dally habits and mode of life this with a view of finally reaching those with whom It has been hla custom to associate. Tha description printed on circulars and In the newspapers. and Is likely to read something Ilka tha following: "Missing A man of medium height, about 40 years of age, dark hair and dark mus tacha. When last seen was attired In dark suit of clothing, with a brown dery hat. red necktie and a dark overcoat. Now, put tha sentinels on Broadway la Manhattan, on Chestnut, street in Phila delphia, on Pennsylvania avenue In Wash Ington. on Charles street In Baltimore, on flmtthfleld street In Pittsburg, on Stat street In Chicago and on Market street in Bt. Louis, and how many men answerln this description will pass a given point in the course of a business day? Thousands, you will say.' and correctly; for the chances are that there will ha a perfect wilderness of men In brawn hats, red ties and dark coats going up and down these populous thoroughfares from dawn till dusk of each day. Hence tha extreme difficulty of treating missing ones In many instances. If they have some peculiar characteristics such as a scar on the cheek, a finger off either hand or a peculiar limp In their gait, the work of tl.e disappearance detective is made much easier. folic Statistic. A glance at the police statistics In a few of the leading cities shows the ever grow-In extent of the "disappearance habit." In the ciiy of New York during the last year Lilt persons were reported to the police as miss If Of this aumaer U returned to their rimes, leaving isM still missing or unac counted for. In Philadelphia during tba me period i.fll persons were reported as missing. Of this number 1.658 returned to ii.eir nnnmL iftavrna i ww urn ami in St'.e land of the missing. In Boston daring t e year 411 persons were reported as miss ir. and K8 of tieee arre afterward locate, .ving X unaccounted for. This percent- of unexplained raavs is larger In pro- lon than either New York or PhUadet i. bit Strryrtr.tende nt Pelrce is of the 'i"n that a numlxr of tlt&ee persons re- 1 i .l as r.-. lining- afterward sought their homes and the friends or relstlves neglected to notify the police of the fact. Departmental detectives generally speak with disdain of tha supposed skill of Sher lock Holmes is it because of that famous detective's covert attacks on their methods? but at times they do not hesitate to em ploy the tactics of the celebrated English man. Under certain conditions, therefore, "missing" cases are susceptible to the the ory of deduction. For Instance, if a busi ness man suddenly leaves his relatives and friends and sssocistes. It is the most nat ural thing In the world to at once begin aa Investigation of his accounts for the pur pose of discovering if anything is wrong. nd In the majority of cases something Is ound decidedly wrong. Again, if a young Irl who is surrounded with all thst should make her home life desirable mysteriously leaves the paternal roof, the question Is ai once asked: Had she a lore affair? And In seven cases out of ten it Is proved that he had a love affair. If a child disappears under peculiar circumstance, the query un consciously comes to the lips, wss it an ab- uctlon? Are her parents wealthy? And if sre they the sort of people that would be likely to offer a ransom for the return their child? Usually such Is the case. Finally, when none of these theories can be uccssfully applied to the case of a missing person, a last final reason Is a poesmie mental disturbance on the part of tha one that has disappeared. In such cases the finding of the missing one is a task beset 1th many difficulties. Instances have been nown where such persons nsve traveled around the globe before finally reaching home and friends. Pathos and Comedy. But, as already Indicated, there are still other cases where It has been utterly lm- possible to suggest a theory or reason for he disappearance, and where It has been equally Impossible to And the remotest clue that would lead to the recovery of the lost one. It is one of the significant features of modern existence that a register for the purpose of filing the neme of the missing should now be a feature of the police de partments of every important city. But all these cases of the strangely miss. lng are not to be placed In the category of tragedies. Sometimes they are broad come dies, and in other instances farces of a roaring kind. To illustrate: Bcene, police station. I o'clock in the even ing. Enter a woman, very pale and terribly , agitated. House sergeant comes to the desk nd says: "Madam, what can I do for you?" She replied, in trembling tones: "My husband left home last night and has not yet returned. I am sure that something horrible has happened to him. It Is tha first time In hla life that he has evr- stayed out all night. I feel that be has b mur dered for his money: or, If not r iered, that ha has met with some dreau.ul accident." The police Immediately obtain a complete description of the missing man, and It is telegraphed to every one of the fifty or sixty station houses in the city, and every one of the several hundred policemen In each of the forty or more station houses is instructed to bend all of his energy toward the discovery of this murdered or accident ally injured man. Not satisfied with that, the description Is wired on to each of the leading cities, and tha police force In all of these cities are set at work to ferret out this remarkable disappearance. Special offi cers are sent to the various ferries and rail road stations, with instructions to make in quiries regarding a man answering the de- rriptlon of the lost one. Finally the cor oner s office Is notified, snd then, when ev ery possible bit of machinery has been set in motion, the officer at the substation lolls back In his armchair and awalta results. The results come much quicker than has been antloisated. Scene: Same station house, next day, 19 m. Enter gentleman with flushed face and a breath that would dye eggs. The fur on his high silk bat rubbed the wrong way, cravat disarranged, and top coat very much wrinkled. He walka tip to the desk and says in a husky whisper, looking very much abashed all the while: 1 beg pardon, but I wish you would call off the search for the missing man adver tised in circulars that have been posted on all of the telegraph poles and published in the newspapers." "Why?" asks the house sergeant. "Because." replied the visitor, looking very sheepish and keeping his eyes on tha ground. "I am the missing man." The sergeant Is about to vent his feelings In a volley of profanity, but changes his mind at the last moment and bursts into a roar of laughter. "What was it?" he asks significantly. The other man, still looking sheepish, an swers in a weak voice and in abbreviated sentences that appear like vocal shorthand : Poker champagne good fellows didn't know so late overslept and so on." It may seem unbelievable, but It Is a fact that the number of persons actually lost and never recovered In the United States In the course of a single year is vastly greater than the number of all our dead and wounded In the Spanish-American war. What is the solution of these queer cases? In many Instances it will never be given. In others it Is found In the coroner's office and in the morgue, the tragic homes and the sad conclusions of many a wasted life. Brooklyn Eagle.

It Is probable that yields are varied even In the same locality and that people looking for good yields or bad yields have been able to find them. The condition is one that will make any accurate estimate of the site of the crop unusually difficult." At Liverpool wheat was steady and d higher at the opening, owing to Jones' es timate and outside buying. There was a slight easiness at the end and the close was unchanged for July and vd higher for September. Corn opened d lower on the forecast of larger American ehipments to Liverpool.

Kansas City cash handlers have with drawn offers of wheat for shipments the first half of July.

Quick wit Is of mora value to an officer than being a good shot," said a policeman In Kansas City, Kan., recently. "I knew a negro policeman who ssved a woman's life by knowing what to say at the right minute. It was this way: A man became crazy one morning with a knife in his hand and ha ran into the kitchen where hla wife was at work. The woman ran Into the yard, screaming for help. The crasy husband caught her and was stand ing over her, with upraised knife, when a negro policeman came around the cor ner about twenty feet sway. Ha could not reach the man in time to save the woman, for the knife was in the art of descending, and to shoot might result in Injury to the woman. " 'Qod Almighty tells me to kill yon,' the crasy man said. " 8top! cried tha negro policeman. Tm. God and I command you to stop!' The knife fell from the hand of the In sane man, as he turned his eyes to the sky rrem whence he supposed the voice had coma. Before he learned how he had been tricked, the policeman had handcuffs on him." Kansas City Star.

Totals 21 8.49S 4 CATTLE There were no fresn arrivala here today and, aa usual on Saturday, uo market. The steady decline of the last ten days was cheesed somewhat at tmt point the middle of this week, when, owing to me sharp brea in prices me nrsi i on vi. re.ielnl.a oe.-j.me iienLer. The maraet on the first two days or tne week In the face of liberal receipts dropped about 4&c. with trading slow ana ouu. This decline had a tendency to check re ceipts and for the rest of the week tne oilerlngs were moderate. With lighter re- reinta tne market took a turn lor tne di ter and showed some strength and activity on Wednesday and the remainder of the week. A rart of the decline was regained. leaving the general market 168 Sue lower for the week, cattle aoia unevenly m weea, some sales looking higher and some look in lower than tne decline noted above. On the very best drylot ateera some sales were only about Kol6c lower, while. tn the other hand, grassy kinds looked miarter lower. Th, murker nn eows and heifers was in about the same condition as the steers and showed about the same decline. On tha v.r,rl kinds there was a fairly good de mand. especially toward the close of tha week, when receipts were light. Bulls, veal calves and stags also show decline of 1643 20e. although there was a fair demand for anything good in this Una The supply of stockers and feeders was iiVit ihii week. and. aa usual at this time of rear, there was a light demand. These vinrt. aiea anew about the same loss do the steers, and trading Is a little slow. HOGS There was a fairly good run here for a Saturday, about 120 loads being on sale. The quality of the hogs was very fond, as has been the case all the week. Buyers were out early and there was some little urgency to tne demand, encouraging reports from eastern points gave sellers soma advantage and there was a bullish tone to the trade. Lightweight hogs were In the best demand all the week and this mnrnini the same conditions were In effect. The general market was 2V&-&C higher than vettterdav. with trading active. The hogs were picked up quickly and a clearance waa made in good season. The bulk of tha hogs eold at l6.17(u'o.2t. with tope reaching 8.21,4. There were some hogs sold at ii.li.
