and attention given to Reading, which then dis
played some of its old animation, but little
effect was made upon it. Changers were also
attacked in the morning but recent advances In
earnings made them hard to move, and the
attempt was gwen up. There was considerable
selling of Union Pacific from Boston, that mar
ket being hurt by the passing of dividend on
the Eastern road The stock was active, but
declined fraction only. Advances at the
opening extended to y per cent, but the list
gave way immediately. with Missouri Pacific
and Terminal preferred in the lead, but were
soon Joined by Lackawanna. There was CON
siderable fractional recovery, but the market
declined throughout. Some recovery was made
after noon; but unusual weakness in Norfolk
and western again sagged prices off, though
after noon the market shook off the ashamed
stock and again made advances. Reading be-
came very active at this time, with Erie and
others. In the last hour the market, outside of
Terminal stocks made almost no movement
whatever. Final changes are somewhat irregu-
lar. Richmond and West Point rose per cent.
and Tennessee Coal a like amount but Norfolk

Lake Erie and Western preferred l per cent

Mrs. Gordon stuck very close to
her husband during the war. At
first she was somewhat timid about
1t, and did not get as near to him
as she did afterwards. When the
battle OF Sharpshurg was fought
she was at Richmond, and her husn
band was then only colonel. She
heard Of the terrible battle, and
that the brigade her husband was
in was cut all to pisces. This is
the time the general was so badly
wounded in the face, he h wing re-.
celyed five separate and distinct
wounds during the day. She could
not hear from him, and 1T once
made up her mind to reach him.
She went to Staunton, then bv
stage to Winchester, and three DAVIS
after the fight she found the eener-
al about as badly wounded as arv
man ever gets to he who RECEIVERS
She nursed him until he got well.
and in three months he was in his
saddle again. and she was not far
off in an ambulance. The colonel
had become general, and he kept
climbing up higher and higher.
