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.

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.

From today's Chicago Tribune: "Reports
of yields of winter wheat, actual and pros
!eciive, have been conflicting and contra
dicted to such an extent that 11 seems evi
dent some crop reports are using their
Imaginations rather than their eyes, or
else the crop is unusually spotted. 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

Kansas City cash handlers have with

by heavy ralna In eastern and northern

QUICK WIT SAVED A LIFE
Polleesaaa Played God to Kep a

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.

the July option was a shade higher at Vu

hour of trading prices held comparatively
steady, the market receiving fair support
from commission houses. Krom the start

extremely weak. At the same time poor
demand for cash wheat In outside markets

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.
