WALL STREET,


"WEDNESDAY, Oct. 21- 6P M
There was more cheerful feeling In Wall street
to-day, because OF the stronger undertone caused
by the advance In some OF the leading stocks.
Cnief among the latter was Lake Shore, the large
buying OF which provoked confidence in the rest
Of the market and communicated TO 1t the natural
but tnde1nable sympathy which Is always felt
when prices advance. Doubtless 1t was for this
reason that Western Union improved, and gain
was shown in other stocks hereinafter referred to,
which are held oy parties VINO believe In brighter
future and are content to await, even in the face
OF temporary adversely, the results OF ultimate
reaction. While It may be conceded that only
clique composed OF o few spectators are the
authors OF the recent advance, it is nevertheless
true that they have drawn into their pool
several outside operators, who are spending
money freely, In the belief that prices are going
higher. Hence, q temporary strength Is observa-
bic that may continue until the original parties
have unloaded ana customers can take no more.
Then Will come Nemesis

WOODS IN WINTER.


When Winter vindr are piercing chill.
And through the hawthorn blows the gale,
With solemn feet tread the hill
That overfiows the lonely vale.
O'st the bare upland. and away
Through the long reach OF desert woods.
Ths embracing sunbsams chastity play,
And gladden. these deep solitudes.
Where. twisted round tho barren oak.
The Summer vine In beauty clung,
And sammer winds that stiffness broke,
The crystal icicle is hung.
Where, from tho frozen urns. mute springs
Pour out tho rivers gradual tide,
Shriily the skaters Iron rings
And voices al the woodland side.
Alas, how changed from the fair seers
When birds sang out their mellow lay,
And winds were soft and woods were green,
And the song ceased not with the day.
Bat ,tiIl, Wild mnsic 10 abroad,
Pale, de-ert woods within your crowd;
And gathering winds, In hoarsc accord.
Amid the vocal reeds pipe loud.
Chill airs and wintry Winds my ear
Has grown familiar with your song;
