They Touched 0ffa Patent Burglar Alarm

Minneapolis Trioune.I
81 was always in bad repute with the
hoodlums," said E. O. Penney yesterday
afternoon. "When lived down on Fourth
avenue south there was gang of touEhs
that used to make life burden to residents
of that locality by ringing doorbells and an
moving the people in the evening in divers
other manners. Finally got tired Of this
continued annoyance Of answering bell at
late hours and finding no one at the door, l
observed In q hardware store one day o
patent burglar alarm, devised to place on q
window sash and fire blank cartridge in
case the window was tampered with. I took
off the doorbell and replaced 1t with this
device in such way that when the handle
was pulled instead Of ringing the
bell it would fire this cartridge, creating a
noise like young cannon.
One night there was an entertainment in
Methodist church across the way, and /
knew there would be visit from these
toughs Sure enough, about 10 o'clock
these overgrown hoodlums made their ap-
pearance in front OF the house and bantered
each other to ring the bell. Finally, one
came upon the porch, and slipped cautious
ly to the door and awaited developments.
Just as be pulled the bell opened the door,
There was deafening report, and the fell
low rolled backward off the porch, followed
at close quarters by myself with cane,
with which sound pounding was admins
tered. Then the outfit fed, congratulating
themselves upon such narrow escape from
being shot, and wondering where the man
took aim from.
This worked all right, and I was never
bothered again by hoodlums," said Mr..
Penney. 1T kept the device upon the door
over night for several weeks, taking good
care to remove 1t early in the morning. But
one day 1 forgot it, and about 10 o'clock my
wife heard the cannon-like report. She
rushed to the door and observed two Meth
odist ministers about half way down the
walk, retreating at a rapid gait. They
didn't know people made a practice Of
using firearms at that time of day. The
matter was hastily explained and the bur-
glar alarm permanently removed"

NEBRASKA ONION PARTIES.
A Social Amusement That Wouldn't DO

Detroit Journa1.I
Onion parties are fashionable in Nebraska.
Six girls stand in a row, while one bites q
small chunk out of an onion and young
man pays 10 cents for a guess as to which
one it was. If he euesses right ne gets to
kiss the other five, but, if he doesn't ne Is
only allowed to kiss the one with the onion-
scented breath. This amusement Is sald 70
be highly popular with Neoraska young
folks, says a Nebraska paper.
In This part of the country this would be
enough to take the young woman's breath
away; If she didn't do it herself, the outA
ragged community would do It for her.

THE BARKER SYNDICATE.

The commercial matter which I was
specially instructed to investigate at
Shanghai had aroused, found, vastly less
interest in the far East than at home.
I mean the Barker Mitkiewicz con-
cessions for an American Chinese bank, the
telephone, system of railways, etc., etc.
The Shanghai correspondent Of the Stand
ard, a clever young Irishmar named Mr..
O'Shea, of the reporting staff of the infuen-
tial North China Daily Netos,, managed to
keep us all at home talking and writing of
this vast scheme several months, but I
fancy he himself would now be among the
first to declare that his native enthusiasm
and appreciation of the picturesque led him
to excite us all rather unnecessarily about
it. The shares of the Hong Kong and
Shanghai Bank fell considerably, I am
told, at the time, but this was probably
only in the ordinary course of speculation
in them.
To begin with, the Concessions" were
regarded here as Of very little value, If any
at all; everybody reflected that English
capitalists could lend money just as cheaply
as Americans; the we'll informed knew that
the Chinese are much too wary and suspi-
cious to give anybody big blank check in
the way of elastic CONCESSIONS" they re-
membered that Americans have had COM
ciaI dealings with this peculiar people,
among whom ''olo custom" is paramount; so
the wisest onlookers here kept perfectly
calm and advised everybody to let the new
scheme have all the rope it desired. And
this advice was SO far good that, although
the statement was .authoritatively made to
me at Tientsin that the undertaking was
about to berevived on a simpler scale with
the addition of London capital, you never
hear the subject mentioned here, and the
only proof of its brief existence IS a brass
plate among number of others in side
Street in Shanghai, inscribed, "The Ameri-
can and Oriental Trust, Wharton Barker,
President. . Nobody connected with the
enterprise has come out so far any the better
in reputation, and His Excellency,Li Hung
Chang is probably the only one who has
emerged the better in pocket.

There was a cessation in the excitement in
the stock market to-day, and trading was again
dull and fluctuations small and generally in
significant, though the tone OF the dealings was
feverish and unsettled throughout the day. The
action of Judge Cooley became known this
morning, and was accepted as an explanation
of the heavy sales of yesterday. The money
question had little, if any, weight today
though the rates on call were held from to .
per cent throughout. There was, however, no
stringency. The opening was at slightly lower
figures than last evening, as rule. In the first
hour the downward tendency was checked,
except in c., c., c. and st. Louis preferred,
which scored a decline Of ll2 per cent. The
market then became dull, remaining feverish
and unsettled, with a general upward tendency
until the afternoon, when the news of meeting
the cut by the Chicago, ut. Paul and Kansas
City road was the occasion of another attack
upon the Changers. The rest of the list
sympathized to a limited extent st. Paul and
Missouri Pacific were the chief sufferers until
Lackawanna made a sudden drop of ia per
cent. TO IA. The announcement that Judge
Cooley was in conference with the officials of
the Chicago, st. Paul and Kansas City road,
and Chicago, Burlington and Northern then
followed, arresting the decline, and the prices
gravitated upward again. Trading at this
point marked by a sudden rise of per
cent. in Pullman to 1870. No further feature
was developed, and the market finally clio ed
dull and steady at the Insignificant changes for
the day. The sales of stocks aggregated
10000 shares. The following were the closing

Louisiana Rice.

Commenting on the above, the Louisiana
Planter says:
OF the total receipts at New Orleans of some
bs3,O1O bags, 2O5,0O0, or nearly ne-third were
received in September, and 1893 600 or nearly
another third, came TO market in October The
rest OF the crop seems fairly scattered through
out the year, but II two-thirds of the total an
nual supply OF any staple crop like rice be
thrown upon the market during sixty days, a
disastrous fall IN prices cannot be avoided It
were well then for the wise ones to now make
such arrangements as may enable them
to carry tho crop of 1889 through these months
OF excessive receipts, and until a termination Of
the giut shall bring back remunerative prices
MeSSrs. Dan Talmages Sons & Co. New Or
leans, telegraph Louisiana crop movement since
Aug. l. Receipts rough, 4, 765 sacks; last year.
1910 sacks; sales. 4,025 barrels, mostly old
stock; last year. 200 barrels. Almost daily
rains interfere with harvesting and arrivals
light.
The Louisiana Planter also reports that dur
INK the past week three lots of new rice have
come upon the market The first lots of any
Importance were from the Lafourche and sold
at 50 70 per sack to Messrs. Hansell & Co.. who
had them milled. We understand that the
product has not yet been put upon the market
Had those lots bsen thoroughly cured there is
no doubt that from 81 so to 81 60 would will
ingly have been paid by any miller. for the rice
was ripe enough and of excellent quality, save
that it was so damp that its value was impaired
to that extent. IL may have been impossible
for the planter to do any better during such
weather as we are having. but the fact remains
that from so to 30 cents per sack was lost by
improper curing
