The List Slightly Higher.
NEW YORK. Oct 8.
The stock market was comparatively dull this
morning. Spectators seemed to be awaiting some
developments that would serve to gui de them In
their ventures. The market opened stron and ad-
vanced steadily in the first hour for most of the
list, but shortly after II O'Clock on the news OF
strike of the pork packers at Armour's packing
house in Chicago and also reports from that city
to the effect that gigantic passenger war among
the southwestern roads was pending, together with
reports that the lumber traffic of the roads in this
pool is demoralized by the Union Pacific cut,
prices broke fractionally in many cas- but toward
midday the decline was almost fully recovered. At
IL O'Clock prices in majority of cases were ID to
per cent. higher, the latter in New York and New
England. The latter was the feature and advanced
on almost every transaction, notwithstanding
denial by the New Haven road officials to-day that
there would be an important conference to day in
regard to any osed plan of amalgamation with
or lease Of the New York and New England. The
sales to noon were 1873 600 others. Reading was
the most active, 49, 600 shares changing hands OF
that stock alone The Fl uctuations in the stock
were only fractional and at noon its price was but
little changed from the closing last night ewYork
and New England the next most active stock,
10000 shares of that stock having been sold in tho
tive hours to noon. The market was weak during
the afternoon and prices declined ID to IA per cent
by 2:30 o'clock. In the last half hour, however,
there brisk covering under viii oh prices raj
lied to within fraction of the best figures. West
ern Union was exceptionally strong on a report
that Austin Corbin to be made president of the
company. Notwithstanding the denial of the re-
port that meeting of railroad officials at the
Grand Central depot weu Id be held to-day in con-
nection with the proposed lease Of the New York

adjourned without making public its transactions.
New York and New England closed / per cent

The first of the six contributed articles in
the October New Highlander is a review of
Todd's "Life and Letters of Joel Barlow" by
Ernest Whitney of Yale. The reviewer is
at one with the biographer as to Barlow's
f'great qualities" but not as to his merits as
poet. "He was not the pioneer of Ameri-
can poetry" Mr.. Whitney tells US, 'and it is
to be regretted that he wrote poetry at all,
when he might have used his talents to much
greater advantage. His bad verses have kept
his name alive, thus doing what our history
ought to do"

to learn this. Nothing satisfactory be
accomplished with douches, snuffs, powders,
syringes, astringents or any similar applica-
ton, because they are all irritating, do not
thoroughly reach the affected surfaces and
should be abandoned as worse than failures.

Al Startling Fact.

1t is not commonly known that large
proportion of the rheumatism and neuralgia
extant is traceable directly to the diseased
condition or imperfect action of the kidneys
and liver; therefore remedy which cures
the resulting disease must have found and
smitten the first cause. Many persons using
Athlophoros for rheumatism and neuralgia
have been surprised to find that chronic dis
orders of the liver and kidneys have also
been greatly relieved and they have written
for an explanation. The fact is, that the
remedy acts directly on these organs, cleans
ing them from all irritating substances and
regulating their action. Taken in connection
with Athlophoros Pills this is, without
ception, the most valuable kidney and liver
remedy in the world, and will cure large
proportion of those who have these diseases.
1t is owing to Athlophoros that am alive.
/ have suffered with inf1ammatory rheuma-
tism for years, most of the time being per-
fectly helpless. But bottle of Athlo-
phoros has cured me. There Is nothing like
it for the speedy relief and permanent cure
of rheumatism SO I recommend it to all,
knowing it will accomplish what it claims
to. MRS. E. VIcKERs,

most universal recommendation. Several
acute cases, and some in chronic stages, have
been cured in Willimantic and vicinity.
FRANK NJ. WILSON.
Every druggist should keep Athlophoros
and Athlophoros Pills, but where they can
not be bought of the druggist the Athlophor-

friends of the bride-elect. A perfect wall OF
autumn boughs had been placed in front of
the pulpit platform and interpreted were
flowers of every hue. These mingled with
the scarlet tinted leaves of the naples in the
brilliantly illuminated church presented a
beautiful picture. A white dove was sus-
pended Just over the heads of the happy pair
as they stood and took the solemn vows to
love and cherish ''till death do part. :"

O'Clock, and at that early hour a
large crowd was in waiting. The
ushers were Messrs. William Ackley,

were present. The bride and groom receiv-
ed in the southwest parlor, and, after con-
CALCULATIONS had been passed, an elegant
