not only plants but fishes and mice, al

at his books, they said though how he
could study after from ten to fourteen
| hours in the field was a mystery to me-
One evening, when the lamps had
been lighted, Norah came in, sheet of

her hand, to say that Stephen was

that they were made with SO much

When she saw what it was, her face
lighted up. She bit her lip over it few
moments in silence, and then rushed out
to the kitchen.

glass of new milk-they were sitting at
the well scrubbed table, with battered
geometry between them, both heads
bent, both faces shining with eagerness,
and both tongues murmuring something
about the maximum of lsoperlmetrcal
polygons.
That was the beginning of Eunice's
interest in Stephen. The girl thought so
highly of intellectual force that all her
good will was gained when she found
some one who had, alone and unaided,
almost overtaken her in her favorite
study. Every night afterward she in
sisted on helping him, and did it with

CASH WHEAT.
The demand for spot wheat was brisk. and
there was also good request for good milling
wheat to arrive. Considerable No north
ern sold to arrive al near the price of spot
grain. The receipts continued small and
shipments full, which left only So cars more
that arrived than that departed. That feat
ure created some uneasiness among the
millers, and they bought as literally as the
characters of offerings would admit of,
which. with purchases TO be shipped to out
side mills, made demand too large to be
supplied by the light arrivals. Low grades
went fairly.

If Your Tickets East Read Over
the Lake Shore Route,

WV LtOutCs
You have the choice of six splendid
trains over the only double-track line
between Chicago and Buffalo, the only
unbroken all-rail line between Chi
cage and New York, passengers being
landed in the latter city at the Grand
Central Station, Forty-second street
without the annoyance of change or
transfer of any kind.
The selection of this line by the gov
eminent as the route of the Fast Mail
trains between Chicago and New York
speaks very highly for the efficiency of
the train service and motive equipment;
promptness and reliability being the
essential features in the transportation
of the mails. The schedule time of the
Chicago and New York Limited (Wag-
ner vestibule) via this route is some
what shorter than that of the fast mail
trains, and the accommodation afforded
are not surpassed by any train i'll this
country. The Private Compartment

being the first real innovation in
sleeping car construction for many
years. For full information concerning

WATCHING THE EARS.
Union Pa cific Knocked Down ]
Per Cent.

NEW YORK. Dec. 1.-THE stock market to-
day was still very dull and exceedingly mar
row. but remained firm to strong, with. the
e. ce ,tion of short time in the forenoon.
wn1n there was an attempt to knock 1t down
on the theory that London was selling stocks.
The market at present is again overSold, and
any attempt of the bears to cover causes q
quick advance i'll prices. One of the chief
influences in the strength displayed today
was the publication of the proposed 6nan-
cial LEGISLATION. The evidence that the
opinion i'll favor of the proposed rail-
road agreement is growing creates good
impression. In regard to the silver question,
il is the opinion in Wall street that if the gov
eminent makes purchase of Sl2.0O0,U0U or
Sl3,o00,0O of silver, there will be an end to
the speculation in the certificates, because
there will then not be enough of them afioat
to give spectators a chance to operate in
them. The market to-day was opened hi2her,
but soon the upward movement was checked
by the bear operations and Union Pacific was
knocked down l per cent and the others
fractions. The current was then turned and
prices from that time failed TO show weak
ness in any manner for the remainder of the
