ment Of enterprise, and hence the invest
and the whole field Of commercial
activity stimulated. The New York
Shipping List says, regarding wheat corn and
provisions, they still rule dull with values gem
orally easy. The rapid marketing of the crops
together with a moderate demand for export and
steady accumulation of supplies has had de-
pressing influence, and Gampened the ardor of
traders, but the low plane to which values have
fallen suggest that all the unfavorable elements
OF the situation have been so thoroughly dis
counted that markets will readily respond to the
first sign of Improvement
Locally there were no fluctuations in values
worthy OF mention. Grocers report trade i'm
proving again, and prices firm. Reports from
the East, to-day, speak of both the coffee and
sugar markets as being firmer, and tendency
to further advance in roasted coffees. In the
produce markets there is q little more doing, but
prices rule weak except for eggs, which are still
IN active demand at our quotations The de-
mand for dry goods continues unusually active,
and the hrmer tone to prices continues to be q
feature OF this department of trade.
GRAIN
The improved tone to the local market con-
tinues. and even better prices were established
and maintained to-day than on Thursday. Re-
ceipts of wheat are more liberal, and are
readily taken at our quotations Corn, as we'll,
is in good request the arrivals not equaling the
ready demand at the shade higher prices. Oats
are steady, arrivals hardly supplying the home
demand. Prices ruled to-day as follows:

I'VE have persons coming in here
every day with so-called 6trsdivarus
violins.r said a maker Of EioliSss in the
Bowcry They are common German
violins with a copy Of the Stradiyarius
label printed or pasted on the inside.
Pretty much every violin, no matter BY
whom it il made, has some snch label.
80 that labels nowadays do not count
for anything. inexperienced persons
NAV be fooled by them, but anyone who
knows anything about violiDs pays no
attention TO them.
Il suppose makers pot the label on
because solne people like to pretend
they have a valuable violin. A Strad-
iyar.us violin IS worti, anywhere from
5000 10 $4,000. nnd they are not very
YIcniy. They can b, told by their
shape and by the kind of varnish On
them
1T is unsafe TO pay a big price for a
violin until it is passed upon by experts.

genuine Stradivari;is and inserted in an
imitation one. for the reason that one
could be sold on lis merits, while the

A Nyack correspondent writing to
the New York Sun says: Three years
ago Emil COblcns came to this country
from Prague and bought a farm in New
Jersey Just over the Rockland county
boundary line. A year later he sent
across the ocean for a buxOm young
country woman in whom his affections
long had centered, met her at Castle
Garden, and married her. His wedding
tour ended at the farm, and he and his
Barbara have since tiled the soil and
sowed and rcaped with good profits.
Barbara Didn't seem to enjoy life on
the farm very much, but became more
cheerful three months ago. when she
made the acquaintance of Michael Din
widdie. who owns u fine dairy farm a
few miles west of Coblens' place. Dim
widdie called often on Mis-. Coblens.
On Thursday afternoon Coblens went
to the country store to dicker for q
pillow. and there met Dinwiddie. who
was Just completing a settlement of his
butter account. Coblens says that this
conversation ensued:
81 say, Mr.. Dinwiddie. this has
been very bad weather. He said. Yes

laughed and said: I'll think about it.
Then he said: All right, Mr.. Coblens.'"
Coblens says he looked at the pillow
again. and when he had finished the
examination Dinwiddie had gone. He
reached his farm about dusk. and pro-
ceeded to his stables, where he noticed
q fine brindle OK ~contentedly munching
an evening meal. Closer inspection
made it apparent that it was from Din
widdie's dairy farm. One of its horns
vas thrust through a paper bag from
the country store. Coblcns thought this
strange, and removed the bag, suppos-
ing that Dinwiddie was in the house.
His surprise was great when he read on
the paper bag this message written in
German:
Emil, you keep the OK. BARB ARA.
After recovering from his temporary
dsze C6blens hurried to the house. But
it was now deserted by all except the
cat. Coblens jumped into his buggy
and drove to the dairy farm. There
the colored woman who acted as house.
keeper for Dinwiddie told him that Din
widdic had not been home since morn
ing. He went back to his farm. Bar
bara's best clothing. some cash, and all
her valuables were gone. 1t was a clear
case Of clopement or exchange. or both.
When asked what he intended to do.
Coblens said:
'.Well. Barbara was not much good
and oxen are. Barbara would not
work and oxen will. 1t Is a good OK,
and I think l keep him anyhow"
1t is thought that Dinwiddie and Bar
bara walked to either the West Shore or
New Jersey and New York railroad,
and that the cars assisted them in their
flight.
Dinwiddie's farm yielded him a hand
some income. He is a goodlooking
young native Of County Wicklow, Ire
land, and is about S. years old. Two
men and u boy are with him on the
farm. but he left with them no word as
10 his departure.
