SToCSs The coal stocks monopohzed a
large part OF the business in shares, and
they were so very active that the total
transactions amounted to jl8,3l6 shares
The announcement yesterday that q
settlement had been reached with, Mr..
Gowsn aud the Reading Reorganization
syndicate led to another covering Of shorts
especially in the coal stocks, which was
continued this morning, resulting in first
prices showing gains Of to !. Towards
2 o'clock the market was decidedly quiet,
but renewed activity and some strength
in the last hour carried quota
tons somewhat above the low
est of the day and the market closed
strong. Probably with one or two excsp'
tons, the trading in Reading never was
30 large as to-day, 1922 shares. The
first sale was made at Is. Sales in the
afternoon were made at fractions above

ret. Louis Globe. Democracy

One day last summer while the troops
were being brought into Fort Reno, /. T.
70 be ready TO suppress an outbreak
among the Cheyennes and Arrapahoss,
they found great many snakes in the
prairie grass. In one day the soldiers
killed thirteen large rattlesnakes. A
young cavalry officer gave bis experience
with an unusual specimen of the same
family. After going into camp about
dusk he started for the spring in little
ravine near by. When not far from the
ravine he saw the object, which was about
an inch in diameter and of q Shiny green
color, dragging It's length across his path
with . rapid movement. Quick a. nash
he drew his sabre and slashed 1t in two.
This only had the effect to quicken L IN
its mad race for the ravine. He made am
other and another slash, cutting Oh two or
three feet number of times, but still was
not able to find its head or check its speed
until he got to the edge Of the ravine, when
he saw, just below him, one Of the company
horses, who lariat he had been chopping.

a HAUNTED SHOE.



Mr.. Anthony Shoe Is q clerk IN . coal
oil factory at Allentown, Pc. Some little
time ago he was so unfortunate as to lose
the amiablsg Mrs.. Shoe, who, before she
died, laid especial emphasis upon Ger.
tain ante.mortem instructions to the Of.
feet that she was not 70 be buried under
any circumstsncss in the family lot. Mrs.
Shoes prejudice against this particular
burying- ground was based upon the fact
that the lot aforesaid was dnccufmtably
wet, being frequently flooded with y atef
when the river happened to be unusually
high. So strongly Was Mrs. Shoe dis.
posed to insist upon obsdience to her
wishes in this matter that she
solemnly declared before she took
her departure to another and
presumably q better world thai il
the damp cemetery did receive her res
mains she would sspr Ok" her husband and
children. Nevertheless she was buried in
the Objectionable graveyard, and, in full.
nllment OF her promise she has been en-.
gagged ever since in making existence AZ
wretched as possible for Der ur..
happy spouse. She makee night.
~ appearances at his bedside
and hovers over the cribs Of the children
in the shape of q spook, nearly frighten'
ing them out of their wits The annoy.
ance became at last so serious that Mr.
Shoe appealed the other day to the police
and he says that II they can not do any
thing for him he will have to dig the old
