New York, Oct. 15.-The stock market
was again quiet to-day, and presented little
feature Of special interest until toward the
close, when the coal stocks came into
prominence, and the volume Of business
was largely increased. The London mar
ket, which was largely Influenced by pros
poets Of war in the east, reacted upon the
market here and prevented buying to a Ger
tain extent, and the general list was rather
heavy throughout the day. The news OF
the day was generally OF favorable char
acter, but had very little effect upon prices
The advances made were entirely In the
specialties, Manhattan being most conspicu-
Gus, It's advance at one time being per
cent, and a small fraction only was lost to-
ward the close. Late In the afternoon the
coal stocks were the prominent feature, and
they all advanced materially, especially
Hooking Valley and Lackawanna. The adj
vance is based upon the favorable prospects
in consequence Of the formation OF the new
bitumlnous pool. The Nickel Plates con-
tlnued their advance, although there 10

Nebraska,s Young Statesman.

A Nebraska paper mentions the renomi-
nation Of Maj. James Laird for Congress by
reclamation. This mark of appreciation of
the conduct Of their representative in Con.
gress by the people Of the second district
shows how we'll they can appreciate true
merit. There ls very good prospect of Maj.
Laird being selected by the next legislature
as United States senator In place of Van
Wyck, whose term expires next March. He
was prudent as well as brave soldier
during the rebellion, and he seems to have
carried those virtues into his private life,
having been three times In succession nomi.
mated for Congress. For young man not
yet 81 years old this is an honor almost uu-
precedented In American politics. lie has
earned all the laurels his people bestow on
him. His speech in defense Of settlers
on public lands In the west, whom
Land Commissioner Sparks declared that
80 per cent. OF them were land rob-
bers, commends itself to the approval of
every honest and fair-deallng citizen; also
his bill, which passed, approprlating
$3.50, 900 for the soldiers home In the west
and securing arrears Of pay to eX.Unlon
soldiers of the late war. Fewer men are
more polished than Mr.. Laird, and Nebraska
may well feel proud of her young states

AND REPENTANCE.
Father Sherman Doing Henanco In
Monastery.
[Plltsburg Dispatch. ]

lPlttsDurR DlspntCn'l
Father Sherman, the young Brooklyn
priest who married Title Mccoy and made
sensation few months ago, aud who
turned out to have been rather a dis
reputable character altogether, has sent his
wife home to her parents and has gone into
a monastery in Philadelphia, where he Is
doing energetic penance for his many sins
by assisting In the mental work, praying
constantly and humbling himself In every
possible way. The statement is made upon
the authority OF Mrs. Costello, rich widow,
who was one Of his parshioners, and who
had taken great interest In him from tho
time when he went through college with
her son, that Sherman claims that the
marriage with Miss Mccoy was accom-
pllshed one night in New York after he had
been drugged.
Mrs. Costello says that he seemed greatly
overcome when he told her this before the
scandal became public. The crediblllty Of
the tale, however, Is lessened by Mrs. Cos
tello's admission that he accompanied the
telling OF II by a request for money. which
he repeated frequently afterward by mail
and telegraph, as we'll as In person. The
drugging story does not agree with the
facts as they came out at the time OF the
sensation. Miss Mccoy was seen yesterday
in Brooklyn, and is supposed to be living
again with her parents, to whom Sherman
said he proposed return TO her.

One Life to Live. One Death to Die,

As | sat by the sea with white folmy crest,
Watching the ships as they went sailing by,
The sun slowly sank In the far distant west,
While the waves ever mOlned a soft lullaby
The refrain of their song was the same alway,
A refrain that burdened my heart with Sigh,
As borne on the winds, II seemed ever to say
zone life to live, one death to de-
Sitting alone there to silently muse
Amid the dark shadows of eve as they fell,
While the sun brushed the clouds with its
dying hues,
My heart with sweet throbblngs seemed
bound bya spell,
And still the white waves sang their sorrowful
Til Inc beams of the rising moon slIvored
the sky
And touched the white salls-seeming ever to
say
zone life to live, one death to die"
zone life to live?" We live, but are dyiugl
zone death TO die 2" Yet dying we liyei
For though all that's mortal meath the sod
soon is lying
A lie everlasting to the soul He viii give
Thus did dream as hOmeward wandered,
Leaving the sea shore and the ships sailing by,
And over the waves song Imusngly pondered,
zone life to live, one death to die"

In brasier, and the operator thrusts into

takes from a cage a recently caught black

comes from practice-to do this success
fully. An unsteady hand would prema-

do die, but that is only after a couple OF

indigo Carmine.

To obtain indigo-carmine use only a
very good quality of indigo, preferably
Bengal, which should be washed in a
hot diluted solution of sulphuric acid.
Then one part indigo and five parts
sulphuric acid, 66 deg. B., are mixed
together in a leaden vessel; the indigo
being first very finely powdered and
dried. The vessel should be kept cool
and the indigo should be added to the
acid little at time, the mixture being
we'll mixed. A heating of the mixture
should be avoided, as it would cause
free sulphurous acid, which would nm
pair the good qualities of the finished
product. .-DrH Goods Bulletin,
