ANOTHER PANIC IN OIL.-There was
another successful bear raid and terrible
excitement in oil at the exchanges in Oil
City, Pittsburg and Titusville, Pa, on
Wednesday. The cause of the decline
and panic was the sudden enormous yield
of the Grandin well, which is yielding
from / ,0C0 to l, 200 barrels day. This
well is perfect gusher, and knocked the
bottom clean out of the market, The
scenes of wild excitement of two weeks
ago were repeated, fortunes we're swept
away almost In the twinkli ling of AN eye,
aud general ruin and misery created. The
price dropped IA points in ten minutes
from the opening, and the break caught
a great many operators loaded up in the

peculiarly a Holiday quarter,
a gift quarter; a place where
just a little use is made the
vehicle for a great deal Of
luxury. 1t is full now; full
of wonders; full of pretty
things; full of silly things;
full of surprises; full of what
nobody expects; full of what
everybody expects; full, asst
has been full near Christmas
time before.
Beginning at the very cen
tire of the store, next north
are two counters, one of
them very large, and one
half as large, filed to over
flowing with perfumeries and
other toilet articles and
implements. We positively
must not begin to mention
names, nor even classes.
The only way to get away
from these miraculous things
is to break away.
Next northwest is a col
lection of small things that
people used to luxury will
recognize under the name
small leather articles. About
the biggest thing there is a
portfolio or writing case.
Pocketbooks are the com
monest. But such pocket
books Oh, yes you can
get good substantial pocket
books there, with not a cent
of extravaganza in them
but naturally we are thinking
ofthe brighter ones. Leather
isn't fine enough. They must
enamel it, paint it, deck it
out with silk and shining sill
yer and gold. Every year
people get worse and worse.
Every year they must have
stranger and stranger things.
Silk, plush, velvet and fur
bags are there, with all their
pretty and handy and cum
ming fastenings. But we
must hurry on.
Next northwest are writ
ing-papers. Here's room
for a treatise. We're not
going to stop. But anybody
who passes that white-look-
ing island of trade in the sea
of people, without finding
out what WaNamakey Best
means, in or out of Holiday
time, is a loser. What a
glory has a page of pure
paper
Photograph albums are
next on northwest; and here
the circle widens. Is all
that long row photograph
albums Is it possible that
SO many people didn't buy
albums last year, when we
brought over a ship-load
almost? There's a new set
of people this year, may be.
At least the photographers
haven'tgone out OF business.
At this end are velvet
frames yonder are boxes
of leather and plush. You
can pay 500 for a box that a
touch will spoil. Don't sup
pose that the things put out
to show, even under glass,
are the fine ones. Whisper
to the saleswoman that your
pocket is full of money, and
that you are aching to get
rid of it.
Brass and bronze! Oh,
see the mob or brasses and
bronzes. Open your die
tionary. The first word you
come to has its image there.
Preposterous things! Have
your wits about you. An
artist has studied out every
one. The artists a wag too;
for jokes abound little
touches of humor and broad
farces. So there is pathos;
and beauty everywhere. But

Sindram Hanged-Fhe Murderer Cool al nd
 Indifferent.
 NEW YORK, April Civilian Sindram was hung at the Tombs this morning for the murder of Mrs. Catherine Crave in January, 1881. He bade his mother and sister good bye yesterday and did not see them again. Shortly after o'clock last night he met Mo Coin, who is sentenced to be hanged next Friday for murder, and the two played game of casino, and after winning two games he retired at 12:45 8. m. He was awakened shortly before o'clock this morning by Dr. Morgan and MT. O'Neil, his counsel, and shortly after he ate his breakfast with relish. At 8:15 the procession to the gallows was taken up. Sindram walked with g firm step, and bowed to two or three of the deputy sheriffs whom he recognized. At S:32 he was placed under the galiows, and as the ex- ecutioner hooked the moose to the rope he looked up at the beam over his head. He Hurry up." He was apparently more self possessed than the execution CT, for the latter neglected to pull down the black cap until he was reminded of his omission by some of the reporters. After the black cap had been pulled over Sindram s face there was delay in cutting the rope, and the murderer stood for fully minute without astremor. At 834 he was jerked into the air. He struggled for two or three minutes, his legs bending and his fingers working convulsively. At 9:04 he was pro- nounced dead, death being caused by stran- gulation.
