great weakness, which brought on night.

and back were very weak, and so sore that
could not bear my weight against the back of
a chair. At different times raised consider
able blood, which my physician said came
from the lungs. ! employed several doctors,
but they all told me the same thing-that my
lungs were badly affected and the last one
that | had also said that could live but
short time, and that | had better 20 to my
mothers home in Wnstead, Ct, as soon as |
could, that with careful nursing might live
Tor some time. When got to my mothers |
was very low indeed so that my mother sent
for her doctor lie pronounced me beyond all
help. He, however left me some medicine
which he said would relieve my worst symp-
toms. After this my mother employed an.
other doctor, who said that one of my lungs
was nearly gone. ] ate scarcely anything for
several months, and never expected to get
well. One day a friend, who lives in Collins.
vile, Ct, gave my father one of your pam
phlets on Consumption He brought it home
and told me to look it over aud see if any Of
the cases described in it were like mine. |
read the book through, and found so many
cases described there that seemed as bad as
mine, that were cured, that 1 began TO hope
that | too might recover by using the meli-
zines. Ny father finding that they were not
kept in Winstead, sent to New York and got
supply. In one week after began their
use my night-sweatS ceased, and my appetite
began to improve. In two weeks after this |

The Willy Conductor.

A plump German, with a face the
color of fresh Frankfort Sausage, en-
tered Third avenue street-car yester-
day afternoon. He did not seat HIM
self precipitately, but glanced nervous
ly at all the advertisements placed
around the vehicle, reading them with
much difficulty, and apparently little
satisfaction. Then he bestowed half of
his corpulence upon a seat and the 9TH
er half upon the lap of an acid spinster,
to whom he remarked: "How is it they
don't state the fare in some part of the
carp How's a man to know what he is
to pay"
Conductor" said he, whats the
farep''
Give cents to everyone answered
that worthy, as though he was making
vast concession.
Indeed, conductor, / entered this
very car last Sunday"
"OhN' was the reioinder, made with
out any conspicuous interest.
Eyes, conductor. Don't say you
cannot remember me, for | see you do
so. Conductor, on that occasion paid
you cents. In my ignorance of the
fare; and in the absence of any sign for
my information, paid you cents.
You took that sum, conductor. You
returned me no change"
Sorry, sir" said the conductor; sac
cidents will happen even in the best
repulated families ~
you are an impertinent fellow, con-
ductor," said the gentleman with the
corpulencc. "Ill be even with you,
though Here the German swore a
tremendous Tcutonic oath, which
sounded like "Sauerkraut and kartoflel
stlid," after which he appeared slight
ly relieved. Conductor, here's your
fare, which will be four cents to-day"
"Oh, no you don't" said he of the
vehicle; mot if / know it, Your full

"Gott in himmel" calculated the
Dutchman in Mortified frenzy. what
a country! What institution! Abso-
lutely no redress! Am | not in the
rightP" he asked, addressing the car.
The acid spinster gazed upon him
with contempt and two girls burst out
laughing in his face, which was large
enough to have accommodated half u
dozen.
Conductor" he exclaimed at last,
"what did you imagine | gave you 6

call there was a sharp rally, but this
was again followed by break, while at
the present time a steadier tone pre-
walls.
New YORK, October 18.-Wau Street.
Stocks were again heavy and depressed
this afternoon, on advices that the New
York Central had cut the local passen-
ger rates to cent per mile; it was also
rumOred that Lackawanna would
shortly issue new bonds. The report of
the bond issue by the Lake Shore and
other companies was also revived.
There was no opposition to the bears
Lake shore continues the special object
of attack, prices being forced down to
655s. Considerable long stock is coming
cut. New York Central declined to
S715, st. Paul to T4%, Northwestern TO
85%, Union Pacific to 515S, and Western
Union to 61L. There were frequent
rallies, due to covering shorts by the
bears, but on each advance fresh short
lines were put out. The outstanding
short interest is heavy. The market
closed weak.
New YORK, October 1S.-There was
further decline in the market; prices
made were the lowest for long time
past; Lake Shore went down to 66%,
New York Central $50. Pacific Mail to
522z. and Union Pacific to IS. At mid
day there was slight rally.
NEW YORK, October 18.-The Erening
Post attributes the heavy decline in
stocks to-day to the change of Wander
bilt from the bull to the bear side of
the market.
New York, October Governments

were weak on cut IN local passenger

z. C. M. 1. Delivery wagons.

In front OF the Studebaker Branch
House yesterday, there was quite q
blockade Of people engaged in inspect
ing six handsome wagons, just built to
order for z. c.. NJ. /. Four of these
wagons were of the 81 Sandage steel
skein style, so noted for their light
weight, light draught, strength and
durability combined, having the new
patent spiral springs, with seats on
risers and strong tops of sail cloth.
These wagons were gotten up expressly
for country travel, and are, inpoint Of
neatness and style, superior to anything
of the kind we have seen hereabouts; IN
all, just the wagon for country trade.
In addition to these there are two Con-
cord, express or delivery wagons, set on
three springs, with bodies forty-two
inches wide, panel side, seat on TiserS,
sail cloth tops, wing boards, pole and
shafts. These wagons are for city use,
and will be conspicuous by the large
letters, q. c. N. l., on the side of top
and body. They are models of neat
ness, style and general beauty.
z. G. NJ l. shows commemorate taste
and enterprise in putting its delivery
system into this uniformity, and Mr..
Glass, manager of the Studebaker Insti-
tuition, feels proportionately proud of
having turned out such handsome
models of his company'S taste and

ORE AND BULLION RECEIPTS

"How is the organization known as
the Utah pool conducted and carried
on?" asked a HERALD reporter the
other day of a couple of influential rail
road men with whom he happened to be
talking.
ooh, the operation is not an intricate
one" was the reply, although it deals
in some pretty extensive figures. The
head Office of the pool is at Denver, and
the two roads. the Union Pacific and
the D. & r. G., make all their reports to
that Office"
"Whatproportion of the traffic money
does each road receiver"
1.-The D. & r. G. gets 40 per per cent.
and the U. P. 60. Daniels, the pool
commissioner, has an extern
siYe Office in Denver, and he
keeps track of all business done by
each road; this is done by the clerks of
both companies sending a duplicate of
every way bill made out to the Pool
Office in Denver. There Mr.. Daniels
has his agents at all the principal sta
tons, Salt Lake, Ogden and Provo for
instance-cOmpeting points where both
lines tOuch-and these agents have their
offices at the depot and examine every
piece of freight that comes over the
roads. Mr.. Burke is chief inspector
here, and right well he performs his
duties"
"And how often do the two roads
come to q settlement"
"Once a month; at the end Of that
time the total amounts received by both
roads are compared, and the balance Is
struck. II it is shown for instance that
the U. p. has received S., 900 more in
freight than its 60 per cent. of the whole
would amount to, the Pool commits
sioner simply issues orders to have
5000 worth of freight diverted to the
d. IL r. g.. that Is done and the matter
is settled"
Then no money ever changes hands
in settling these balances?"
Not dollar; it is not long since the
y. p. and Utah Central here had to
transfer lot of bullion and mercantile
freight over to the d. & r. G. on &C
count of one of these settlements"
And what do the merchants and
consigneeS generally have to say to
this?"
The official shrugged his shoulders.
