Trade I'm Every Department Continues Dull
and Without Any Show Of Interest.
INDIANAPOLIS, July Is.
The markets were altogether devoid of
interest again to-day, and everything was
very quiet. Dry goods move sluggishly,
and groceries in only moderate request, with
general steadiness in prices in all lines or
goods. In the produce trade there is noted
an abundant supply of butter, mostly of
inferior grades. Such as will rate as first
quality finds a ready market. There is no
change in poultry. except o shade of weak
ness in chickens. In fruits and vegetables
there is fair trade. Apples are in fair
supply, but peaches are vet scarce. The
market is overstocked with tomatoes, and
onions are hat. with little demand. P0ta-
toes are plentiful and lower. Foreign fruits
are in moderate request, with prices steady
on all but lemons, which tend toward high
er figures.
GRAIN.
Wheat in the face of increased receipts, shows
an advancing tendency. Corn is in good de-
mand from shippers and manufacturers alike,
the latter paying prices quoted below. The mar
ket for mixed grades of oats is weak, while
white finds ready sale. The market for feed is
quiet. There is little demand for hay from ship
pers, but there is a fair local inquiry. The re-
ceipts yesterday were: Wheat, Is, 900 bu corn,

An Anecdote of Ole Bull.

The famous Norwegian violinist, Ole
Bull, when travelling in America, going
down the Mississippi, met on the steam
boat a party of half savage men, colon
lists from tile West While reading
his newspaper, he was accos;ed by one
of the men, with the request that the
fiddler would take drink with them,
offering him a whisky flask at the same
time.
IL thank you," he said, but never
drink whisky"
With a curse the fellow said: ''If you
can't drink, come and fight then"
The mans comrads had gathered
round him meantime, and they all
cried: ''If you won't drink, you must
fight You lcok strong; show US what
you are good for"
"a Norseman can fight as well as
anybody, when his blood is up" replied
Ole Bull; but L can't fight when my
blood is cold, and why should / ?''
You look like a strong fellow, and
you shall fght.n
Seeing no way of escape, Ole Bull
said: "Since you insist on testing my
strength; and there Is no reason for
liz ting, will tell you what 1 will do.
let any one of you take hold of me in
any way lie lihtS- III nall nlnulc uo
shall lie on his back at my feet.
\ big fellow was chosen who stepped
forward and grasped the vioIinist round
the waist, but was instantly thrown
over his head by sudden wrench, and
lay senseless on the deck. The faInting
man was soon revived, and his squestion:
"IIow in the world was | thrown down
here?' was answered by a shout of
laughter from his companions, in which
he himself joined. He sprang TO his
feet and said; "rake this knife home
with you; you fight well; you are as
quick rs lightning"

Interesting Story of a Royal We'd
ding Gift

There Is (says Pdnity Fdir) history
attached to one of the wedding gifts
accepted by the Prince of Wales on
behalf of Princess Louise that is so
characteristic of the keen interest felt
by the Queen ill anything connected
with India that it deserves to be re-
corded. Southern India has long been
known for its Swami jewelIy; but the
form and figures of the typical Swa-
miese are so outrageous as frequently
TO o end Western notions of propriety.
To bridge over the difficulty an ener-
getic Parsee-Mr. FramJee Pestoujee
Bhumgara-deteIm mined to refine Swami
carving so that, while retaining its
really distinctive features, it should vie
in chastenv IS with the best efforts of
the London goldsmith. To this end he
visited Eua land, carefully took heed of
West End establishments and return
ing TO India set TO work TO carry out
his ideas. There was one thing that
Mr.. Frambee learned here in addition
to acquiring ideas of carving, and that
was that, to make anything "go,' II
must become the fashion, and that the
surest way of becoming fashionable WAS
TO win a royal smile of approval. Ac
cordlngly Mr.. Framiee, having gained
entrance TO Windsor, told his tale 10
the Queen, who at onre caught up the
idea, and appointed him her special
Jeweler for Indian art jewelry. Thus
powerfully encouraged, Mr.. FTamjee
returned 10 his own land full of the
news of the X ndness of the Empress,
and raised great enthusiasm for the
person OF the sovereign against his
fellow-workeTs- Now comes the pretty
part of the story No sooner was the
intelligence of the Princess Louise's
intended wedding flushed to India than
these workers in precious metals agreed
TO show their appreciation of the deep
obligation they owe the Queen, ar
ranged that Mr.. FramIre, as their rep
reSentatIye, should present magnif-
Gently carved casket to the happy
bride. Mir. Framjee has ened to Lon
don with the caskes, ani appealed to
the Queen for guidance The Queen
remembered his former visit, and i'll
timatsd her desire TO Marlborough
House that the gift be accepted. with
the result that the casket formed one
of the most attractive of the many
gifts that charmed the delighted guests
of the Pr nee of Wales.

TIE CTry OF Paris, of the lnman
Line Of transatlantic steamers, has
come nearer To making five days trip
than any other vessel that has ever
made the run between Fastnet and Fire
Island. But the White Star Line man
ayers are building an ocean racer which
they predict will make the voya in
less than five days. The rivalry of the
different companies to construct vessels
for the transatlantic passenger traffic Is
further demonstrated by the construc-
tion 10y the owners of the French line
Of new ship that is to excel in size,
speed and beauty any of the present
fleet, among which there are some fine
and fast vessels. The Hamburg Amer
lcan Company has also two new steam
ships on the stocks, which will equal If
not surpass, it is said, in every respect
any ship now anoat; the Guin fleet will
also be increased by a new vessel of the
finest model and highest speed. Ali
these new steamships will be ready for
next summers service. Those FOR
whose accommodation they are espec-
ially provided are not the steerage pas
sengers Of Great Britain and the Con-
tlnent, but the cabin passengers of the
United States. 1t is for the patronage
OF this wealthy and ever increasing
class that the companies are SO actively
eonteudiug, and for whom they are
building these magnificent and fast
vessels.

THE fanatIcal EIith-curer should take
a lesson from the practitioner he most
strongly resembles, the medicine man
OF the Indian tribes. lie makes almost
"a much noise as they do, with singing
and praying, and if he does bang the
,drums aud dance strange dances,
'ieading his party OF young people in
sinewy measures around the sufferers
couch, there Is some method in his mad
ness. The medicine man is knowing in
herbs and ''sImples," some of which
are sudorifics, claimants, tOnics, and he
usually gives his patients some such
