Excited.

A man on Horton street cut a curious
antic recently. His wife was taken sud-
denly ill and a physician was summoned.
The husband in his anxiety for his wife
and sympathy in her sufferings requested
that anodynes be administered, to which
the physician objected, saying it was en-
tirely unnecessary, at which the man be-
came apparently temporarily insane. He
rushed from the room and made quick
time to the canal bridge, where he was
seized BY some 1assersby Just as he was
about to scale thu bridge. An officer was
summoned, and3he was taken tt,his home.

One of the seventh avenue cars stopped at twenty first street the other day to let sharp featured, snappy-syed woman get aboard. When the conductor came forward to collect her fare she gave him . fifty-cent piece. Af- ter giving her change he had turned to go to tha platform, when she stopped him by say ing:
 "Oh, conductor, y you have not given me the right change"
 The conductor said politely: "I think you must be mistaken, lady. gave you four ten cent pieces and a nickel" featured woman; ''you gave me only four ten cent pieces"
 The conductor counted his change and said:
 "You certainly must be mistaken, for the change in my pocket is all right"
 "Did you everi' remarked the now thor oughly excited woman appealing to fat man opposite. The stout man did not signify whether he ever did or not, and she began up on the conductor again.
 "I never make a mistake, ''snid she. "When know @ thing know It."
 "But certainly gave you the right change"
 She turned to the lady in the corner and asked: "Did you evera' The lady was non- commital, which forced the sharp featured WOmhu " uppcAA tO hu OlU mAu WuU Whu reading the sun.

 The stock market was more active to-day than for weeks past, but the increas, of business was made at the expense of values, showing material losses to-day's closing trading than on any day since the present decline The feeling the open ing was more hopeful, but the bears soon got to work, and one after another of the leading shares was attacked, all yielding more or less readily After the issue of the bank statement there was halt In the drop for some time, but the pressure was soon resumed, and still lower figures were reached in the afternoon. New England, Burling- ton and Quincy and the trusts In for the bulk of the pressure, but in Rock Island there every evidence of liberal covering of shorts. The stock was less active than usual of late but its fuctua- uous were on a much smaller scale and Its price was stubbornly maintained throughout the day. Tho strong features were the coal stocks, which were held firm on comparatively small transac. tons, though they yielded slightly to the last drive in the last hour. The trusts were depressed with the general list In tho early portion of the day. but met with most pronounced support toward the close, as did also New England, and these stocks closed near their opening figures. Tennessee Coal after rally from its depression of yesterday, made another phenomenal drop of eight per cent, carry ing the stock with it, but usual portion of the loss was recovered later in the day. Jersey Gen. tral and tho speciality Edison were strong, and both stand apart from the rest of the list in show ing advances this evening.

Yale Theological Seniors and Their
 Protest.

Yale Theological Seniors and Their
 Protest.
 The protest accompanying the contribution of Yale Theological school seniors to the American Board, rehearses the action of tho class in the matter, the substance of which was told in the COURIER a few days ago, and adds:
 The class then determined, after thor ough discussion of the matter, to send its contribution and to accompany it with @ re- respectful but candid statement of the feeling of majority of it's members. That feeling at present may 5e thus expressed: There is no lack of missionary interest on the part of the class. There would be hearty indorse- mont of such policy toward applicants for commission as that outlined by Dr. Storrs' letter of acceptance, but majority of the class feels that in view of recent events it has no assurance that applicants will be oommis- stoned in accordance with the provisions of the letter. The class desire that there should be no mistake in regard to its sentiments in regard to the matter. It wishes by all means in its power to further the missionary cause, but it begs to state plainly that majority of its members deeply regret that recent &C., tion of the prudential committee resulting in the withdrawal of MT. Covsll's application; that it sends its present contribution a . token of interest in missions, and in no sense as an indoraement of the action of the com. mittee.
 This letter has been submitted to the class, has been thoroughly discussed and adopted by the following vote: Affirmative 31, neg ative 6, present and not voting 4.

Spring sightseeing Tours on she
 Pacific Coast.

For nine years past Nessrs. Raymond & Whitoomb have announced an annual series of spring tours through Colorado and Cali fornia, and six years ago they added the wonderfully picturesque region of tho Pacific northwest to their western round of travel. These oxcursions differ from the winter trips, inasmuoh as they are for stated period, and are made purely for sightseeing purposes. Both Colorado and California are visited at . season whom they are most beautiful and ate traotivs. The Yosemite valley is then ac- cessible, and the same is true of the Yellow stone National park, which is included in tho Pacific northwest tour. This takes In also the Mount Shasta region, tho Co., lumbia river, the Puget sound, the Mediterranean of tho North" With the adoption of vestibuled trsins and dining car service across the continent, these exour. sions are made much more enjoyable than they were originally. For the coming season the itineraries of both trips have been con- considerably widened. The two excursion parties will leave Boston on the same date Monday, April 2S. The Colorado and Cali fornia tour will occupy sixty. one days and the Colorado, California and Pacific north west excursion seventy.fve days. There are also to bs several trips during March in the regular winter series ot California excursions. Descriptive circulars may be obtained of w.
