On a February day In 1874 two men, strangers to each other, walked Into the patent office at Washington, one of them being Prof. Bell of Boston and the other Klisha day of Chicago, and each filed an application for a patent on the telephone. It has always remained a question which was really first. When their papers were laid in a pile, of applications, did or did not the clerk follow the order in which they were received? However that may be. Bell's was found on top, and by that chance th patent went to him, carrying with it fame and fortune. Two or three electric lighta glowed In different lands almost at the same time, and so It has been with most of the Im portant mechanical Inventions. One of Ab raham Lincoln's notable law cases came from a man who developed a reaper con current with McCormick. Half a dosen steamboats were Invented; Fulton's merely went farther and faster, and, therefore. New York la about to commemorate the centenary of the Clermont. In faot. It would be difficult to name a great Invention which depended for its de velopment and Introduction upon one In ventor.

Immeasurable boon to hu manity, anesthetics, which was concealed from the surgeons until 60 years ago, sud denly sprang forih from three men here in New England. Two of them, Morton and Jackson, were so equal In their merits that the French academy felt obliged to divide its prise between them, while Dr. Holmes made the happy suggestion that the ether monument in the Publics gar den should bear an equally Impartial in scription "To Either." The astronomical world was amazed when the planet Neptnu. waa discover by two astronomers, a Frenchman and an Kngiwhman, each working in entire ig norance of th other. Irwl aad Wallace. The classlo Instance, however, was in the double discovery of the evolutionary prin clple. Darwin had been quietly developing it for everal years, but timidly withholding the announcement from the public, when he was axtonUhed to receive a letter from Alfred Husaell Wallace on the other side of ihe eartH, stating the very principle which he himself had come upon, which he had written down, but had not ven tured to print. The better part of the atory remalna to be told. Wallace's paper momentarily overwhelmed Darwin. He had been antici pated in the object of hia life work. "If Wallace had my manuscript," be frankly said, "he could not have made a better short abstract. Even bis (erms now stand as heads of my chapters. So all my originality, whatever It may amount to. will be smashed." But Instead of destroying the paper of his faraway rival In the Malay straits be resolved to publish It and give him the glory of priority. Only the entreaties of mutual friends of both men Induced Dar win to submit some notes of his own on the subject along with Wallace's.

MISSOURI'S "POLECAT KING" Makes Money Out of th Pungent Beasts and Handles Tfceae Like Kittens. Jerry Jones of Claysvllle, Mo., haa earned the title. "Polecat King of Mia TOurl." So far no one has risen to dts put with him that honor anl since every one catches his breath when such an honor is mentioned, Mr. Jones will not have to strive hard to keep the title. Mr. Jones does not expect to go Into the polecat busiresa, but he has already launched this newest of enterprises. He has eight grown cats and twelve kittens with which he Is trying to stock a pole cat ranch. Claysvllle In twenty-flv miles from Co lumbia, a postofflc on a bluff of 'the Mlfsourl river (Iv miles from Jefferson City, the state capital. The place is in habited by a primitive people who take delight In hunting and (lshing. The orig inal stock of polecats was taken in the traps set by the hunters. A chicken house was the plant In which Mr. Jones began his cat Industry. He has figured that at the end of three years more he will have a stock of COO old cats after selling furs amounting to 13.000. Polecats are easily fed, says Mr. Jones. They will eat slop from th kitchen, offal of every kind, decaying vegetables and dead animals, as well as berries and fruits. He expects to feed them at very little ex pense. According to the polecat king, an ani mal docs not like to give forth his tad smell. He will not do so unless frightened by a dog or some other thing. He shows that he believes In the scent theory by handling th cats as though they were the house cats about the fireplace In wlntr. H w ill go to a burrow and reach his hand among the sleeping kittens around their mother and draw one forth with his fin gers. Prices of furs vary according to the color. A black animal will sell for 12 60. while a long or a short striped on will bring II less.. Mr. Jones Is trying to breed his cats so that all of them will in time be black, so that his furs will bring the highest market price. Young cats produce four of five at a tlim but as they get older th number Increases to nine or ten. This large in crease gives Mr. Jones hopes of doubling his stock of cats rapidly. A cat becomes full grown at 11 months and then the fur Is resdy (or sale. May cata will be killed In February or March while the (all cata will be killed In the following fall. The work of skinning a cat and drying the fur Is an easy matter. Sl. Louis Oobe-Democrat. Th Bee Want Ads for Business Boosters. Mellfllas; Permits. J. Baley.

BIO DEMANDS FOB STEEL Con.araers Are Anxlone to Close Cos. tracts at Prevailing: Hate. Foot wear Market Coo tl ones Dall and Inactive. NEW YORK, Sept. ls.-R. O. Dun St Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade today says: In spite of prevailing high prices, which In some lines work for curtailment of op eration) the volume of trade continues not only largely in excess of last year, but Is even approximating the records of 1907. Most noteworthy la the continued expansion In steel In which the position of producer and consumer has changed, the lutter now displaying most of the eager ness to close contracta at prevailing ratea. The sales of Bteel rails are the heaviest in two years, while there haa been a decrease of 12 per cent in a month In the number of Idle cars. Copper makes a less favorable showing than some weeka ago and during August production exceeded the demand, with a resulting increase in th surplus stock. The height of the jobbing season In diy goods Is passed, but every cons derable business offered In small lots from retail ers and others who bought rautlously In their first transactions and who are mani festly pursuing a hand-to-mouth policy In relation to new stocks. In cotton goods and yarns the effort to lift up selling prices to a parity with raw cotton contin ues aa the chief feature of Interest. Buy ers will pay asking prices when their needs force them and the progress of readjust ment of stock requirements appears to bo making steady headway. There has beena fair export .trade In, prints, hut oriental markets are quiet. Domestics exported from New Tork this year to date amount to M.2M bales, same time last year only lltt,S3r. Domestic dress goods show a bet ter tone. Marked dullness continues to rule In the footwear market, the deadlock between buyers and sellers regarding prices still being unbroken. The domestic hide mar ket la firmly held, but some foreign hides are lower, though In part this Is due to a bad condition of many of the lots offered. The leather market shows improved de mand. Sole Is firmly maintained and there Is a very active demand for fancy leather for the holiday trade. BRADITREET'I REVIEW OF TRADE Distinctly Stronger Vadertoae I Dis played In Week' Report. NEW YORK, Sept. IS. Bradst reefs to day says: A distinctly stronger undertone Is dis played In this week's telegraphed trade re ports. Improvement In wholeaale and job bing demand, enlargement of Industrial output and perceptible gains In collections are the central facta this week. Satisfac tory progress, too, appears to be making in agricultural matters, with the exception of cotton. The movement of crops and general merchandise Is enlarging and this week finds widely noted the reports that manufacturers of many lines are behind on deliveries, and that the Idle car Hat Is still decreasing largely. 1 litre are, of course, some shadows in the general pic ture, due mainly, however, to early antici pations of crop out-turn or ot business turn-over having been keyed too high.

Retail trade aa a whole and some branches of jobbing trade catering to heavyweight demands report warm weather a bar to fullest activity.

BIG PROFITS IN PAPER MONEY Unredeemed' "hln Plasters" of War Time Fatten (ho National Treasury. Are you keeping somewhere In a cabinet one or more of those old government "shin plasteri," which In the dark days of the civil war circulated as fractional currency? There are millions of 'em out somewhere.

Likely Probably no one remembers today just thla amount waa a certain arbitrary per centage of the total outstanding In that y ar. Otherwise It would seem to be draw ing linra pretty fine when the official est! rrat named the odd I9S4 Instead of making It a round sl.OOt.
