The stock market was somewhat less active
to-day, and irregular unsettled and feverish
throughout with the general tendency of prices
in a downward direction. Uncertainty in re-
gard to st. Paul dividend was the controlling
cause of the unsettled feeling and there was a
marked indisposition to make ventures.
while old accounts were closed up In many cases
on both sides of the account. There was con-
siderable pressure to sell in early dealings,
which was directed principally against gran
gers, and the rest of the list sympathized slowly
with the movement The reaction was brought
about by the receipt of a rumor that Chicago,
Burlington and Northern had agreed to join the
Central Traffic Association, but the effect of
this was afterward neutralized by the denial of
the rumor, and report from Chicago that the
western connections of the Pennsylvania had
reduced the rates on grain, which put damper
on the bullish feeling. There was very little
movement in the usually active list, except
grangers. Among other stocks Chesapeake and
Ohio was especially strong. The close was dull
and heavy at small declines for the day. Final
changes are almost invariably in the direction
of lower figures. though Hooking Valley which

A Fortieth Anniversary.

The fortieth anniversary of the
marriage of Mr.. and Mrs. Jas. d.
Headlcy, whose residence is short
distance from the Sun, was celebrated
on Friday last as announced in that
issue Of the JOURNAL, with large
gathering of friends. Fifty eight
persons sat down to the anniversary
dinner. The bride and groom OF forty
years were treated to serenade by
their guests, and Mrs. ]. ID. Shunell
of Philadelphia read the poen she
had written for the occasion and had
published in the MIDLAND JOURNAL
of last week. The festive occasion
was q most joyous ono to all who
participated in it and especially SO
to Mr.. and Mrs. Headley whose an
riiversary nuptials were thus remem'
bered and hono-ed.
|. Mrs. Shunell who celebrated the
occasion in verse acted as brides
maid ut the wedding, when the
matron of forty happy welded years
stood before the alter trembling
bride, and on the present occasion
doubtless felt all that she expresses
In her verse:

A Positive Public Need.

Every farmer and citizen living at
distance from large towns feels the
necessity for some means of remit
ting small sums of money. Only
about IA per cent of eur post offices
are supplied with postal notes, and
It is often difficult to get postage
stamps. The proposition to reissue
fractional currency in amounts of 10,
ID. 25, so and Is cents meets with
universal approval as supplement
to our present silver coin. To the
weekly press such action would be a
decided boon, for many subscriptions
are delayed or never sent from the
difficulty ia getting postage stamps
or postal notes. In the payment Of
wages by large manufacturers the
fractional currency will be found
much more convenient in making
change than silver, which is too bulky
for the purpose. This new issue
could. if necessary, be based upon
silver and be always good in ex.
change for silver. 1t is to be hoped
that this plan may be carried
through.-Eveaing Journal, Duluth

Beware Of the Dogs.

The following dog story is related
by cancer doctor Haines:
The doctor was "treating" can
Ger at Mr.. VIM. s. Stroud's WAC re-
side near Stanton Del. M. Stroud
living on the railroad was so over
run with tramps that he was com :
PEELED, in self defence, to procure
several large Mastiff dogs, and he
placed sign over the outer yard
gate, bearing the ominOus words
"Beware of the Dogs" The gate
was also chained as a further precau.
ton.
On Sunday the 9th inst. the doc
tor and Mr.. Stroud were enjoying
the comforts Of warm stove when
they we're startled by loud screams
of distress. They instantly rushed
to the door knowing the dogs had
seized a victim. In the yard three
savage beasts had man. tie two
smaller dogs on one side and the
largest on the other side pulling in
opposite directions. Mr.. Stroud
called to the dogs rs soon as he
reached the porch and the vicious
animals released the victim imme'
diately, 80 we'll are they trained
The man was taken into the house
and his wounds dressed. He was
bitten severely in seven places which
we're patched up and q number OF
minor wounds dressed with an ap.
plication of the doctors "Cure all
Salye." The man was veritable
foreign tramp. and not being able to
read the sign had climbed over the
gate and nearly gained the house
when the dogs scented him. His
coat was lined with sheepskin and
emitted such fragrance that it was
carried out on broom stick. when
the doctor proceeded to dress his
wounds. The stencil which arose
from his person after hcing thawed
out was so intOlerable that the win
dows had to be opened, in order to
en- ahle them to stay in the room.
The business was dispatched in
the shortest time possible and with q
generous chunk of bread and meat,
the tramp was conducted safely be.
yond the baliwick of the dogs and
sent on his way.
Mr.. Stroud alleges that the tramps
threatened to overrun andtake com.

and thirty visiting him daily. invad-
ing every department of his premises
He finally got the trained dogs which
now keep these pesky intruders at
bay.

ANNEXATION OF CANADA.
The Disastrous Attempt to Accom-
plish It by Force-A Famous
Retreat

The present agitation concerning the re
lations between canada and the Unite
States recalls the time when the annexation
of that country was proposed to be brough
about by force of arms. The project wa
entrusted to the brave General Montgomer!
assisted by the famous patriots, Colonel
Ethan Allen and S.th Warner. While en-
gagged in this invasion Ethan Allen was
taken prisoner by the British and sent tt
England, where he experienced very harsh
treatment.
1t was Colonel Warner who twice con-
Quoted his men safely home, though the
march was constantly surrounded by dan
gers. Once Montgomery sent them home
because their time was out, and though they
were very willing to continue in service
they were without sufficient clothing, and
none could be had in that country.
Colonel Warner hardly arrived home
before he heard that Montgomery had been
killed, and the cause, as well as the lives OF
the men, were put in great jeopardy. he
collected his men agaiT and at once started
for Canada to assist his countrymen in thei'
extremity. But his efforts were OF no avail
and it was soon found necessary to take ~
the line of retreat.
1t was the dead of winter, and only ne
cessity sanctioned moving the troops. The
terror of pursuit and the rigor Of the sea-
son furnished sufficient cause for alarm and
haste. Colonel Warner remained with
the rear of the army, and aided them in
many ways most effectually as he was
man we'll posted in caring for the sick and
this knowledge now came into excellent
use.
He must keep the army in motion, not
day must be lost, and YET he was without
any chest of medicines. But he understood
the medicinal use of roots and herbs, and Of
proper care at critical times, and with these
allies, he made an eff.ctual fight against
disease among his men.
When Ticonderoga was reached and the
roll called. thanks to Seth Warner but few
vacancies in the ranks appeared.
Col. Warner saved the lives of hundreds
of men in this way, and he did noble
work, but it remained for his namesake, H.
H. Warner, head of Warmers Safe Cure
establishment, to give the same kind Of
remedies then used to the people Of to-day.
in "Warner's Log Cabin Remedies" These
remedies have been adopted after thorough
trial and nvestigation, and they are renne-
dies of ESTABLISHED reputation. Being wholly
vegetable they can be used without any fear
as to the results.
Among the new remedies is Sarsaparilla
for the blood, Hops and Buchu for the
stomach and digestion. Cough and Con-
sumption Bemedy, Scalpine for the head
and hair, Rose Cream for that terrible dis
ease, catarrh. a Log Cabin Liver Pill, a
Log Cabin Plaster and an Extract for in.
ternal and external use. Our readers may
rest assured that there is merit in every
article.
