This last was added rather bitter

hands and her bare ankles, and
thought of the "boys' work" she
had to do.
And it was hard to believe that
this was the best kind of a. life for
young girl like Sacramento. Here
she lived alone, for her father was
down at the mouth of the cannon
all day. The garden work she was
obliged to do, and the care of the
cattle fell upon her. 1t was not
often that she saw any0person but
her father. although now and then,
in spite of herself, she came in con-
tact with the rude men Of the min

one that she scarcely dared to

she went about her work.

New YORK, Dec. 10.-It has been a field
day in Wall street for the bears. The worst
feature was a collapse in Delaware d. Lacka-
wanna. 1t sold early at 1868, and at 2
O'Clock was 1929. There was heavy trading
in it, and it looked as though the old clique
had deserted it. st. Paul received its share
of attention, and the talk was that the open
ing of the Wisconsin Central's St. Paul
branch would prove bone of contention.
Heath disposed Of considerable OF Lake Shore
and it was generally conceded that the next
dividend would be a small one, if any Rock
Island declined to 109 as against Ill last
evening. The Northern Pacific looked bad
and 30 was predicted as the price for the
preferred by the close of the year.
The dividend on Manhattan did
not help the stock much. st. Paul
earnings for the first week in December show
an increase of S21, 900. This did no good.
Deacon White said he looked for a nervous
market the rest of the week. Gould was do
ing nothing, and thought the market was
being worked by the old bear party. A
large lot of Union Pacific was reported for
sale. The earnings of Northwestern for
the first week in December are expected to
show an increase of $4,000 OF more. The
earnings of ST. Paul for the same time are
reported to be $21, ,152 increase over those of
last year. Some buying of st. Paul by some
unknown parties was reported right in the
midst of the general desire to sell. A large
short interest is being created day after day,
and a reaction will be in order soon. The
Western Union directors held their
quarterly meeting to-day, and declared
the usual dividend of IL per cent.
payable January 10. The net revenue shows
an increase over the last quarter, and the
surplus is increased upward of $15O, 900.
Western operators are generally selling the
grangers, and good many dispatches have
been forwarded from Chicago in the past
week, stating that the movement Of grain in
the west this year is going to be very dis
appointing. John 7. Lester, who is here,
appears to see no balm in Gilead so far as
stocks are concerned. There was no change
for the better as the day drew toward a close.
The shorts covered a good many stocks
during the session. but it seemed
impossible to get up anything in the
way of rally that would hold. The market
closed very weak, with Union Pacific and
Lake Shore looking particularly bad. The
future OF railroading in this country is not as
bright as it might be, simply from the fact
that business is overdone, and the earnings
are not large enough to go round and give

Oats we're stronger and more active under
good speculative inquiry, chiefly from short
sellers, and the close was firm at 235Ec for
December and 25c for May.
Provisions we're active, but the market was
weakened by the heavy arrival Of hogs, and
offerings Of the product we're heavy. Jan
uary pork opened 171Ic lower at S11, and
sold down zoe more, but recovered sc at the
close, which was S10.s5. February opened
1870 lower at s11.15, sold down 2Oc and
closed at s10.975<- Lard was weak and
about 10c lower, with the demand entirely
speculative. January closed at S6.65. Ribs
were easier and closed 121lc lower at $3.50
for January and s5.571s for February.
At the stock yards there were heavy re-
ceipts OF hogs, with slow market and lower
prices, estimated on receipts Of hogs at co.

night, made about So, 600 on sale, the greatest
number on sale for any one day this season.

"There is the quality Of the hogs and their
weight, both extraordinary this season, which
ought TO be taken into consideration, but
which are not by the outsiders" said a
packer. ''Takng all these into considera-

not as large as 1873 they will be fully as re-

The cattle market was slow and values
shade lower on the best natives. There were
but few Texans among the fresh receipts,
and prices were about the same as on Mon

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 10-The six story
building on Levand street, occupied by Clark
Bros. & Co., furniture manufacturers, was
burned early this morning. The building
was filed with highly infammable material,
and made fierce fire. which could not be
controlled. A row Of small three story brick
house next 10 the factory was also burned so
quickly the tenants escaped in their night
clothes unable TO save anything. The silk
hat factory OF z. Morris & Co., was damaged
by water TO a considerable amount. Baxter
Swan & Co. suffered considerable loss by
water, which cannot yet be estimated. A
small tenement house in the rear of the fac
tory was crushed by the falling walls, and 3

beneath the ruins, but afterwards rescued
The loss Of Clark Bros & Co. is $4,000; in
sured for $50, 900. The factory building, be-
longing TO the Bailey estate, was valued at
$50, 900, partially insured. The damage TO
outside buildings was S25. 600.

private bank at Syracuse, n. Y, rated at
nearly $500, 900, went under to-day. which is
simply another indication Of the prevailing
business condition of the country. Present
probabilities are more in favor of extra eau

future, although the movement of merchan-
disc and the amount of trade is increasing g

ARTHUR TELLS A STORY.
A Remarkable Coincidence in the Career
of Two Of the Presidents.
Washington Capital

Washington Capital.
There was an unusual number of vis-
itors to pay respects" at the White
House. l happened to see some few
who went in a little in advance of the
crowd. They we're taken in by twos or
in small groups by friends and intro
duced to the President, who had gotten
through with the business of the morn
ing and gave to the etrangersi pleasant
greeting. He made an agreeable impress
sion upon all, and there was one party,
who were evidently from small town
in New York. once the boyhood home
of the President. He at once referred
to bis life in this country village, telling
them how long his father had preached
there, then of his own experience as q
school teacher, giving the exact spot
where he taught and the name of the
family with whom he boarded.
And then he told what / had never
heard before, that General Garfield had,
two years later, taught in the same place,
boarded with the same family and occu-
pied the same rOOlI He said he had
talked about this with General Garfield
years after, and had compared notes
and laughed over the amusing incidents
which befel them both as country school
teachers. l thought the President en-
jOyed talking about his early days and
was quite as p.eased to recall them as
his visitors were to see that he had treas
ured up such memories of humble be-
ginnings.

Beside the baby's cradle
She sat the whole night long.
To lay upon his little lips,
The kisses six of Song.
This is the kiss shall make him long
To drink" she softly sighed,
The fount of Beauty with the thirst
That ne'er is satisfied.
''This is the kiss shall ope the eye
And stimulate the brain
To see what others never saw
And he can ne'er attain.
"This is the kiss shall charm his lips
So that his whole life long
There honey bees of thought shall hive
The stinging sweets of Song.
"And here the kiss of Wandering
Iprint on feet and breast,
That he may for possession have -..
Desire and unrest, ,-r -, . .tr
And this shall be the kiss of Love.
His life to conscecrate,
To her that shall be lost too soon.
Or be found out too late.
These are the kisses FIVE give
My baby in his sleep;
The sixth. and sacredest of all. .'.. ..
A little while keep.
And he shall never know, or. known.
1t never shall be told,
Which sweeter is-the kiss / give,
Or the kiss which withhold"

There was big row in the House over
nothing at all. Mr.. Perry, speaking i'm
badinage to Mr.. Julian, said: "When l
go to Lexington always get some fresh
air and something good to eat" Laugh
teri Mr.. Julian (excitedly): "The gen.
tleman goes to Lexington for fresh air
and something good TO eat Yes, and
he goes there sometimes under peculiar
emergencies" Applause and laughter
The general impression was that this
remark referred to Mr.. Perry's absence
in Lexington at the time his vote was
changed from Williams to Blackburn in
the recent Senatorial contest.1 Mr..
Perry: "Let him blow off his steam; III
reply to him." Mr. Julian: "If have
steam to blow off l shall not do it with
my mouth. If i said anything contain
ing so much truth that it offended the
gentleman from Owen let it stick; if the
cap fits let him wear it." Mr.. Perry:
"The gentleman knows he is incapable
of offending an honorable nature"
Mr.. Julian (warmly). IL denounce the
gentleman from Owen as a scoundrelp %
Tremendous sensation.
Mr.. Perry: al denounce you as liar
and scoudrelp
Perry was in the aisle, speaking near
Julian's seat, where that gentleman sat
with dangerous white light in his face.
AS the rough, words were spoken each
man was standing, only few feet sepa-
rating them. Sergeant-at-Arms Rally
stood between, expecting that the hot
words would lead to hotter blows. When
Perry started toward Julian, Railley
placed his hand upon his arm and stop
ped him. Julian, white-faced and trem-
bling with excitement, would have left
his seat for the aisle, but the tall form of
Polk johnson, the clerk of the House,
moved through the throng, and when he
had reached Julian he placed-his hands
on either shoulder and said; ''Sit down,
my boy; remember where you are, and
that there are ladies in the lobbies
This is no place for personal matters"
There was great excitement for the time,
but order was at last restored, when
both members walked up to the b r of
the House and apologised.

Words Of Wisdom.

Silence is the wit of fools and one of
the virtues of the WISE Bonnard.
Let us learn upon earth those things
which call us to heaven.-St. Jerome.
Wrongs intrenched in bad legislation
can never be converted into vested rights
Vanity refuses all wholesome food and
lives entirely upon the poison of flatterv,
upon which it thrives luxuriantly.-
Marie Eschenbach.
The one prudence i'm life is concentra-
ton; the one evil is dissipation; and it
makes no difference whether our dissi-
pations are coarse or fne.-Emerson.
The action of man is a representative
type OF his thought and will and awork
of charity lisa representative type of the
charity within, in the soul and mind.
The every day care and duties, which
men call drudgery, are the weights and
counterpoises of the clock of time, CIV
ing its pendulum true vibration, and
its hands regular motion.-Longfellow
Taking the first footstep with the good
thought, the second with the good word,
and the third with the good deed, / en-
tered paradise. All flows out
from the Deity, and all must be absorb
ed in Him again.-ZOroaster.
1t is true that he who commits sin is the
slave of sin, and that all evil courses and
choices tend TO shut men up to certain
Consequences which limit freedom and
destroy self mastery, tending to induce
insanity and impotence in the nature so
vitiated and enslaved through the evil
choice.-DI. Dewey.
Let us not make scapegoats of the mon
ey changers. The sin belongs to all who
worship and covet wealth as the chief
good. The Gin is not in being wealthy,
but is in inordinate appetite. making
riches the end, not the means, of life.
Rags are not riches, nor is it the posses
sion of wealth which is commendable.-
