It is alleged that the Standard Oil company is back of the prospective merger of all the print paper ami sulphite mills of the middle west. The project has advanced to the point of appraising all the mills of Wis consin. Thirteen paper-mill appraisers from New York have reached Appleton , Wis. , and joined the two appraisers who had been at work for a week in the work of setting a valuation on each of the print mills and sulphite plants in Wisconsin , Michigan and Minnesota. The merger is said to be practically certain , and will involve millions of dollars. John J. llanrahan , of New York , as The Fourth Kstatc has old , is promoting the merger. Ic is a representative of Dean & Shipley , and it was he who ugiucercd the big candy trust n California and the brewing uerger in the eastern states Mr. llanrahan 's oflicc is in the Standard Oil building in New York. Paper men refuse to deny that he mills arc likely to be sold out right , which would allow the Standard company to gain con- rol. When the appraisers were ; it work at Mcnasha the owners declared that they were -not pre paring for affiliation with a syndicate , but negotiating for the sale of their mills outright. It is positively asserted that the merger will include uol merely print mills but ground wood pulp mills and concerns manufacturing wrapping ant' manila paper. The print mills taken in will , it is said , have a capacity of T5 ( tons a day. As the pulp mills can turn out only 5 ( > S tons o ground wood a day it will bi necessary to acquire additioua plants. George A. Whiting , of tin Whiting P a p e r company Menasha , is quoted as sayinj that an effort is being made t merge all plants in Wisconsin Michigan and Minnesota , whos products are made from th component parts of wood.

A hey who was until recently cin- ) loyed as a messenger at one of the ocal telegraph ollices has an ovcr- vecning sonce of humor , says the ) uluth XewR-Trihtine. It i.s of the lenotrating t.V | ) < ' , which nearly al- vays furnishes the Inugh for him done and i egrets for the other fcl- ow. In fact , he recently loft the employ of the company rather un- orenionioiisly because "f it. J5tisi- _ ipss was dull one day and , overcome > y ennui , the boy in question wont o the telephone , lie called up the ionic of one of the other employes tnd asked for the hitter's mother. "I am awfully sorry to have to tell on , Mrs. Mlanl ; , " ho said , "hut our son was just run over and hud lis leg cut oil' . " Then he hung up. Fortunately he conversation was overheard and he frantic woman quickly rcas- nicd. "Why did you do it ? " asked the nanngcr. " .lust for Am. " "Well , I know something funnier han that , " ' said the manager. "You let out. of here just for fun and on't conic hack , just for fun or nything else. " DAYS OF WHALING GONE. "Xevvjotiinlland's coastwise whale islicry , of which so much was ex- icctcd , has utterly i'olIapBcd , " writes \iisul Cornelius at St. Johns. "Started about ten years ago , with iioilcm steamers and equipment , the ] rst operators did HO well that from a single ship it grew to 17. The re- nit was the speedy killing out of he herds of gigantic mammals , 1,500 of which were destroyed in a ingle year. Gradually , however , he catch fell oil' , and within the ) nst year six or seven of the stcam- M'.s have been sold for similar work on the Hritish Columbia and Jap- iiieso coasts , while the companies owning Ihoni have gone into liquida- ion. During the season of 1)07 ! ) it s not expected that there will ho norc than seven or eight whalers operating in all. ' ' TOLD OF SECRETARY ROOT. When Sot-rotary Ifoot was at 'anaiua on his return from Bouth \nierica , Gov. Magoon gave him a linner , at which were present vari- MIS dignitaries. An invited banker vho failed to appear called no\t day vith explanations. A birth had oc- niiTod just at that time in his fam- h , by which another girl had Wn idilcd to six predecessors. "Too had it was not a hey , " sniil Sov. lagoon , "von might have ailed him Elihu Hoot. " "Oh , " said the father , "we had do- idcd to call him that if the child uul been a boy. But not being able o call the child exactly that , 1 shall all her 1'ootine. " ARCTIC PHENOMENA. One of the peculiar phenomena of the Arctic regions is "sea smoke. " Kxplorers toll of a steam us if from i boiling kettle which rises from the water when the temperature is 15 legrcos holow xero. At10 degrees the snow and human bodies emit this vapor , which changes into tiny icy particles which till the air and make a light uoit-e like the rustle of silk. At10 degrees tree trunks inrst with a loud report , rocks break up and streams of smoking water How from great cracks in the earth's surface , knives break in cutting but ter and lighted cigars go out by con tact with the ice upon the beard.
