Strength in the Grangcrs - Rock Island and Burlington and Q uincy Attacked in the Last Hour - The Close Heavy.
NEW YORK, Aug. IA.

NEW 1ORk, aug. IA.
 Railroad bonds were again stagnant, though a frmer tone marked the trading in the active issues. The sales reached only S602, ,OO0 but there were nc material losses scored outside of Denver and Rio Grande fours, Which went back to 82I from s4. The Reading issues are all higher, but, like the rest of the list show signs of only fractional amounts.
 Stocks were dull, but considerable strength was shown, the grangers leading. A violent at tack was made in the last hour upon Burlington and Quincy and Rock Island but while the for mer broke 24 per cent to 1O1, it recovered as rapidly to 1924, it's final loss being only A per cent. Rock Island was especially strong until the last hour when it lost all of it's early advance closing unchanged Missouri Pacific displayed the most even strength and is alone in making a material advance, its gain being per cent. The early buoyoncy was in great measure due to the buying for foreign account, but after that de- mand had been satisfied there was reaction of meagre proportions Sollowed by steady though slow appreciation, which lasted until the raid in the last hour. Prices gave way in sympathy with the grangers, and the close was rather heavy but still at fractional advances over last evenings figures.
 Closing reported prices over the private wires of BUNNELL & SCRANTON, Bankers and

evenings Register also says:
 s'In more senses than one the line is a 'one horse' affair. In the first place it is literally so. Only rarely are two horses used, and there are often times when it is an actual cruelty to make one horse draw those cars. When the boys are driving, they often send the poor animals tearing on with a big load and brakes on. At times have gotten out of the car, it was so unbearable to me to see such treatment of the animals.
 GAS one of last evenings cars was pass ing the Boulevard the horse slipped and fell. No driver was on hand to hold him up when he first stumbled and he fell squarely on the track. No driver was on hand to apply the brake at the first sign of trouble and the impetus of the car sent it's wheels rolling onto the helpless animal, crushing and tearing him terribly. He was too far gone to make it worth while to doctor him and last night he was shot, It would have been simply a pitiable sight, had it happened, if that would have been possible, while the car was properly man. aged. As it was, it made one very indig- nant and warned him what more serious results he might expect from the present system of management.
 'Where was the driver all this time. He was inside the car collecting fares, and there is where the drivers on this road are large part of the time. This is simply because the company will not put con ductors on it's cars, or even go so far as to put boxes in the cars and trust it's passen gers to deposit their nickels. Some day if they continue this custom, venture to predict they will be taught the error of their way by verdict for thousands ot dollars of damages for child killed o1 maimed for life, or serious collision with some team, or, thousand times worse, g whole car load of passengers smashed into eternity at the grade crossing of the Northampton railroad.

She Must Have Her Money Before
the Curtain Goes Up.

Denver Times.
One of the leading ladies of WASH
ington society, came across from Eu-
rope with Patti, and during the
voyage became quite intimate
with her. She says that Patti will
never sing unless she is assured of her
money beforehand, and that in most
Cases NicOlini goes out before the cur
tain is rung UP and brings the certified
check for 5000 or the cash.
During one of her engagements In
America NIcolini came to the dressing
room with Il check in his hand, and tod
her that the manager had been able to
raise only $4,000, but that he would give
her this amount and would assure her
that the remainder would be paid as
soon as the performance was over.
Madame Patti was sitting in her
dressing room and she had gotten down
to the putting on of her slippers. She
Strengthened up as Nicolini spoke ana
said coOlly:
THAT will not dc. Take the check
back TO the manager and tell him
that Madame Patti is in her dressing
room, and that she has one
slipper on. She will not put ON the
other until she receives the Iull amount
of 5000. and if there is no money there
will be no song"
The audience was waiting. it was
time for the curtain to rise, and il is
needless to say that Patti got her money.

pears to be rather an odd proceeding. as
the suburban residents might have been
expected under the circumstances to
require no hint Of this kind. The po-
lice, however, seem to have some par

learned by experience that several of

have found their way into certain domi-
