Bonds-Government bonds were
quiet but firm. State bonds were dull

bonds were chiefly for investment,
and aggregated S3,000,0t0, with mod
crate advances. A notable exception
YVES the development of decided

against 55s yesterday.
Stocks-Stocks we're much less act

assumed a second place in the deal

and Lackawanns, which is only half
stock, came third with SO, AGO shares.
Contrary TO general expectations, the
market in the early dealings was
strong, but the advances, as a rule,
were only fractional. Later there was
an alternately upward and downward
movement within a moderate range,
until in the lat hour, when prices
were again heavy, but the closing quo
tations show a net advance for nearly
erything on the list, ranging from
small fractions TO over l per cent.

Poetic Ceremonies.

At the obsequies of Alfonso singu
lar and imposing ceremony took place
which is always observed at the inter
ment of the kings Of Spain. When the
, religious rites had been celebrated, the
BODY Of the monarch was born on g
magnificent catafalque, and followed by
the officers Of state, the grandees Of
Spain, and the princes of all the prov
inces out Of the palace Of the Escurial
to the monastery in whose vaults all the
Castiian kings are entombed. The gate
was locked. The High Chamberlain
Knocked three times. The face of a
monk appeared at tie opening. "Who
seeks to erter?" he said.
"Alfonso XII, king if Spain," was the
reply. 49,,
The chief physicians and the princi-
pal officers then presented their certifi-
Gates that he was dead, and the gates
rolled slowly back to admit the king who
came to join the eternal sleep Of his an
cestors. When the final prayers of the
church had been said, the coffin was
borne to the vault, and laid upon stone
table. The lid was removed, and the
face of the hing uncovered The princi-
Hidalgo in the Kingdom, who was also
the favorite of the king, and who had
loved him as a brother, then went down
into the vault, and kneeling, put his
mouth to the ear of the corpse, calling
aloud:
''Senorw
The grief Of the summoner gave to
his voice, it is said, q pain and despair
which wrung the heart of all who heard
It was not only king, but q dear friend,
whom he demanded back from death.
''Senorl Senorr
After the third call he rose, and said !:
There is no reply. The king is dead.
He will return no more. The Queen
Mercedes reigns."
In no country but Spain, we are told,
could 90 significant . ceremonial have
been observed with such fit and comber
splendor.

A French Prison For Women,

Saint Lazare is probably one of the
strangest prisons in the world. It is as
an establishment for women that it il
chiefly remarkable. These are classed
under two categories -felons and files
The latter are the miserable women who,
according to the irregular and altogether
inconsistent fourishes of the projects
broom, are allowed to swarm upon the
pavements by night under the noses OF
the police or are caught like birds in q
net, to be Gagged up for some weeks at
Saint Lazare. There is no rule for their
guidance; whether they are caught and
imprisoned or are allowed perfect free
dom of action depends very much upon
the demand upon space at Saint Lazare
and the need of shirts for the army.
When they are seized, the intention is to
make them useful. These unfortunate
creatures, who more often than not are
the victims Of cruel circumstances, are
much more hardly dealt with at Saint
Lazale than the thieves and other crimi-
mails. These last can receive visits from
friends, in the parlor, and if they have
money can obtain pretty well what they
wish from the outside world; but as re-
CARDS the others, all communication
with the world is vigorously cut of.
All female prisoners at Saint Lazare are
in charge of nuns. They are of the
order of st. Vincent de Paul. Only
those of exceptionally strong character
are chosen for prison duty. If they
were not very stern at times they could
never keep order among number of
women of the worst description living in
common. For those who behave badly
there is punishment of the cachot, OF
dungeon. The dungeon in question
happens to be room underneath the
tiles, where the inmates get half frozen
in winter and half baked in summer.
The sisters are especially severe upon
prisoners who commit breach of de-
corum in language-an offense which
they are particularly liable to fall into,
inasmuch as the forbidden language is
almost their native tongue. A sisters
,,.,.e at Saint Lazare is harder than that
Of a I, -isoner, for it continues year after
wear and 10 ~-oent in an atmosphere loath-
some in proportioc as the character of
Of the person who reh,ains in it is high
and pune.

WAKEENEY, KANSAS, SATURDAY. OCTOBER q 1886

ing the business of the Office. There is
stored in the vault of the office over $22,-
OOO, 900 and great care must necessarily
be exercised to insure the perfect safety
OF this large sum Of money. After the
experts sent from Washington had COM
pleted their count Of the money in the
office, MI. Page stepped in and assumed
control. The first day he was surprised
to fihd the clerks and tellers go in and
out of the big burglar and fire-proof
vault and deposit therein trays contain
ing hundreds of thousands of dollars
It occurred to Mr.. Page that this was
rather loose way Of doing business, as
a dishonest clerk could steal q roll of
bills or package of gold from another
tray and get an innocent man into
trouble. He issued an order that no
clerk or teller should enter the vault
alone under pain of dismissal. If q
clerk has any business in the vault he
must call another clerk, and the two
must enter together, where the first must
transact his business in full sight OF the
second. Mr.. Page also caused the COM
bination of the big safe to be changed.
One combination was given to one teller
and the other to another teller, so that
both must be present to open the safe.
Proper precautions have been taken to
cover any exigency that might arise in
tie case of sudden death Or sickness of
either of the gentlemen possessing the
secret of the combination. But the m ost
important reform is perfect system Of
checks upon each OF the clerks and tell
ers. At the close OF business each day
the redemption clerk and paying, assist
ing and interest tallers make out q
statement of the amount of money re-
ceived from each and the amount paid
out. These are furnished to the book
keeper, who makes out general state
ment which proves the correctness of the
individual statements. These are at once
furnished to Mr.. Page, who can tell at a
glance if everything is running smooth
~ and properly in his office, ard, at the
same time, it gives every assurance to
that gentleman of the safety of the many
millions intrusted to his care.

Wolves in England,

Wolves in England.
Chambers Journal.
Ancient chroniclers state that King
Edgar attempted to e1tirpate the wolves
in England by committing the punish
ment of certain offences into the accep-
lance of a certain number OF wolves
tongues from each criminal, and in Wales
by converting the tax Of gold and silver
into an annual tribute of 300 wolves
heads. In subsequent times their des-
truction was promoted by certain rewards
and some lands we're held on condition
of destroying the wolves which infested
the parts of the kingdom in which tLey
were situated. In 1881 these animals
troubled several of the English counties,
but after that period our records make no
mention of them. The last wolf known
in Scotland was killed in 1880. and in
Ireland one was killed in 1701. Very
fearful accounts ara on record of the raw
ages committed by wolves when in hard
weather they associate in immense focks
So lately as 1760 such terror is said to
have been excited in France by ravages
Of wolves that public prayers were offer
ed for their destruction. Since India be-
came 80 much the country of the Europ-
cans the race of tigers has been much

these islands was hunted by an animal
known under various appellations, as the
Irish wolf dog, the Irish greyhound,

days Of ancient Rome, it was frequently
conveyed in iron cages to assist in the
sports Of the city on the Tiber. Button
observes: ''The Irish greyhounds are Of
very ancient race, and still exist Though

dogs Of Epirus and Albanian dogs" Hol-

and the Irish," written in 1886, says:
''They are not without wolves and grey
hounds to hunt them, bigger Of bone and

gentleman should keep one.
