you do not remember old Sam Hammond
of Hudson, who built the steamboat Legisla-
tor, which ran between Hudson and New
York forty-ive years ago." said an old resi-
dent TO an Argus reporter. "Oh, mol you
had not seen the peep of day then. But viii
tell you an amusing story connected with old
Sam and his boat. Hammond was wealthy
man for his time, liberal with his money, but
Indifferent and careless with his dress. His
appearance was slovenly, while the knot of his
necktie generally rested above his shoulder.
''Old Sam thought he would take trip to
New York upon his boat, and when the gong
sounded for supper the old man found his way
to the table, and took a seat at the side of a
finely dressed lady. The clerk of the boat
only employed the day previous, and never
having heard Of its owner, espied Hammond
and Immediately made for him. Say, old
man. he said, you viii have to get up and
eat at the next table Hammond was little
deaf, and either did not hear him or pre-
tended not to, aud kept on munching his food
The clerk rushed to the captain and asked
permission to 'yank dirty looking old top
from the supper table
The captain came into the cabin and gave
one glance at the offender. Good heavens,
youn. man. he whispered, do you know who
that isP No. replied the afrighted clerk
That is Old Sam Hammond answered the
captain, who owns twenty-nine buildings in
the city of Hudson, and owns this boat
THE paralyzed clerk was SPECIFICS for
time Finally he said, Cap, lend me two
dollars and let me of at the next landing.'n

inside prices for December and
when the figures were posted
there was disposition to realize, which
carried prices back again to inside figures
of he day. Around SIC for December the
buying by a prominent local trader became
quite conspicuous and this proved to be
the lowest point of the day. For some
time the market ruled steady and the
closing finally was the same AS Saturday

Corn ruled quiet the greater part of the
session. Trading was almost wholly local
and fluctuations within narrow limits. A
prominent local operator was a moderate
