TABBY,S CURIOSITY SATISFIED.

The Virginia (NeY.) Enterprise tells
this affecting story: ''GAarles Kaiser,

sold Tabby' sruCk and crushed bee on
the edge o. The openlng to the hive. The
smell OF he crushed bee alarmed and en-
ragged the whole swarm. Bees by the
score poured forth and darted into the
fur OF the astonished cat. .

Omaha for % cents. The adoption of
he very low ratesby the A. & p. during
tue contest was doubtless a stroke of
good management under the circum-

the managers under the pooling ar

as low as they can be made to pay the
expenses and fair dividend on the
stock OF the Companies. This Is
all that the public can expect,
and if more is asked it
will be in vain. The Chambers of Com

should be imposed upon. Tue day for
their whining to avail anything has

The commercial editor of the San
Francisco Bulletin accounts in tins
way for the business stagnati q
throughout the country: An a"oma-
lous condition of things prevail a,
present; money is drug and the
times are hard. 1t is a queer condI-
ton of affairs. Low rates Of interest
do not always insure prosp 'rity-
else the country would be ON the top
wave, for money is more pientliui
and rates Of interest are lower than
at any previous time. The trouble lie
not in want of money but in its free
circulation. The reason why money
does not circulate more freely is be-
cause the country is overstorked with
goods and producers decline II put
out their dollars until they can see
their way to get them again. Labor
saving machines have been multiplied
more rapidly than the consumptive
wants of the country have developed
. demand for the articles produced.
We havn been manufacturing goods
and vaIuing property by fallacious
financial standard.
