scale of the first part of last month the mone-
tary spasm will return so quickly that 1t will

PROOF AGAINST CONDITIONS.
Bullish Figures Have Very Little Effect on
the Oil Market.

The publication yesterday of the pipe line re-
port for September, showing decrease in pro-
duction of 100000 barrels. in round numbers,
made very slight impression upon the oil
market, which has reached stage to be in
dependent of conditions. The market opened
at 9gc, Nc better than the close of the previous
day, advanced to 991sc. receded to 1885, rallied
a little and closed at 9S5sc Trading here and
elsewhere was light
A broker said: 81 well remember the time
when such report as is posted up there would
have caused perfect furore and sent the
market sky high. Now 1t causes scarcely a
passing remark. Could anything show better
than this the utter absence of interest in the
stuff? There is no business in it-neither in
side nor outside. Oil trading is a lost in
dustry"

PROGRESS ~ CENTRAL ASA

The kirghiz are among the most cou-

over whom Russia's dominion extends
but even among them there are signs
Of progress. A correspondent writing
from Odessa says: AN attempt has nov
been made TO break through the hithcr-
to impenetrable wall Of prejudice which
excludes female children from all cd
ucational culture. The wife Of "A
kirghz chief named Gaischev>kava

During Mr.. Winters recent birth
day celebration he was visited among
others by Mrs. Julia Houston West,
Americas most celebrated oratorio
singer. After dianer Mrs. West was
asked to sing, and seating herself at
the piano she began the beautiful bal
lad of robin Adair," singing it as
she can with all the longing and heart
break of the words and music in her
voice. She had hardly begun before
Mr.. Whittier's pet dog came into the
room and seating himself by his side,
watched her as if fascinated. and listen
ed with delight unusual in an animal.
When she finished he came and put his
paw very gravely into her hand and
licked her cheek.
robin takes that as a tribute to
himself" said Mr.. Whittier; The also
is Robin Adair'"
1t was true. That was the dogs
name. and he evidently considered that
he was the hero of the song. From
that moment, during Mrs. Vests. visit,
he was her devoted attendant. He
kept by her side when she was indoors
and accompanied her when she went
out to walk. When she went away he
carried her satchel in his mouth to the
gate. and saw her depart with every
evidence Of reluctance and distress.
Another story of which Mrs. West
is one of the heroines is good enough
TO tell here. A few years ago she and
Mrs. Flora Barry, the famous contral-
to, were engaged to sing in the Ora
