tellgent men will doubt that Michigan Central is
worth moro than Lake Shore, yet of the former but
n small quantity of real stock be sold without
breaking the price some per cent, while OF
the latter the market will take thousands of shares
at every 1s per cent decline. Lake Shore dropped
down to-day to 547s but finally closed at 55l2. The
Granger stocks, Erie, Ohio and St. Joe fell off y
to 81 per cent in the face of which Pacific Mail and
Western Union were both strong. n. Y. Central
was marked up to 1884, which in face of the now
generally admitted railroad war, looks very mu
like a game of brag. Rock Island was firm. In the
miscellaneous list Consolidation Coal broke
down from IL to 40ls, while Petroleum advanced
to 40. In the coal stocks, Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western was heavy, breaking down to 113. but
New-Jersey Central was firm at about par upon the
demand of the shorts for delivery. considerable
amount of this stock has been sold for the opening
of the books which takes place on the 2lst, and it
is thought that the stock thus sold will relieve the
market when it is delivered. In Philadel-
phia, Reading declined TO 44l40443s equal
to about SSos per cent The afternoon
market was dull and closed unsettled and
irregular at prices generally above the lowest of the
day. At the close tho declines from yesterdays final
prices were in NOrth-Westcm and n. j. Central,
each Is per cent? st. Joe and st. Paul. each 4 Erie,
Harlem, Lake shore, and st. Paul Preferred, each

ANNIVERSARY OF FIRST BAPTIST SUNDAY
SCHooL.-The 59th anniversary of the First
Baptist Sunday School was observed at the
church yesterday afternoon and last evening"
The church was firely decorated with plants,
flowers and evergreens and presented beautl-
full appearance. The order of exercises, as
published in the PRESS Saturday, proved very
interesting. From the reports of the officers OF
the school we learn that there are SO classes,
officers, SO teachers, 357 scholars, making a
total membership of $685. The largest number
present at any session was 1888; $30426 has
been collected; scholars have died and have
united with the church. There are at present
sos volumes in the library.
In the afternoon the cantata entitled "The
Reign of Christ and of the Christian Grcces"
was presented with fine effect, introducing
several solos, duets and choruses. The solos by
Ida Tarbox, Mabel Stevens, Matte Beckett,
Ella Cummings and Susie Dryden were worthy
of particular mention.
In the evening the church was literally
packed with people. In addition to other In
teresting exercises was an anthem, praise We
the Lord" rendered in an excellent manner by
consisting of Scripture Rotations, solos,
ddets, quartettes and choruses Those by
Messrs Beckett and Hall, and Misses
Tarbox and Dryden were rendered I'M
usually we'll. Interesting remarks were made
by Rev. DIR. Smaller, the pastor, and Rev. j.
McWhinnie of Free street church. Reference
was made to the late Rev. T. B. Ripley, pastor
of the church when the school was organized
in 1877 The exercises were conducted by Mr.
d. B. Kicker, the Superintendent.

SINGULAR ACCIDENT.-Two young men from
Springvale named Muchmore and Kicker, came
to this city recently in hopes to get chance to
ship aboard vessel, but as they were unsuc
cessful they started to walk back to their homes
Saturday night They took the track of the
Rochester road and followed it some distance
beyond Saccarappa, when becoming weary they
sat down near the track to rest. They soon
fell asleep and knew nothing more until they
heard the express train from Worcester COM
ing. Being about half asleep they stumbled
down over high embankment and Muchmore
bruised his hip badly. The train men heard
them fall and supposed they had run over some
one. The train was ran back and the mel
brought to this city and taken to the station
where the city physician attended them.

MURRAY's CRCUs.-The New York Herald
in speaking of Murray's circus, which shows
here tomorrow, says: This circus company is
very attractive one. The pantomime troupe
exceedingly funny, and the dramatic artists en-
gagged in Richard III, are well up in their bust
ness. Circuses have been seen in all ages and
climes, but Nothing superior to the one Mr..
Murray owns has ever visited New York. The
taste displayed in arranging the programme de-
notes vast experience. The artists introduced
display consummate skill, and the general sur.
roundings of the entire establishment present a
guaranteed receipt of fabulous sums of money
spent in its getting up.
